Just wanted to let you guys know that I am very close to end the development of the update V0.1.9 or better known as the end for the Prologue episode❤ at the moment I am doing a ton of optimization, cleaning unnecessary codes or renders, placing replays and compressing the game as much as possible, I am crunching hard these last few days to bring it as soon as possible, please be patient with me

New Stuff added:
  • Notifications on the minimap that shows what character are there.
  • The exploration of the 24 maps of the hospital
  • added a fame/karma/reputation system

FIXES
  • The 24 maps that are on the hospital are now completly explorable
  • Fixed and organize a ton of coding stuff...
  • All the buttons/interactions on all the hospital map works correctly
  • Now you can talk and spend time with any character around the hospital map
  • edited conversation backgrounds
  • Edited the gamble minigame with the women on the hospital
  • Edited Pussycats gang presentation event
  • Edited multiple Jazmin and Jaiden Sexual events
  • reorganize all 13k+ character sprites
  • deleted all the unnecessary renders/layers
  • Ton of compression and optimization stuff
  • Fixed emotion system, now depending of the level of friendship some character can get mad or happy when talking to you, to lower or rise it, you must spend time or do stuff that character likes, like for example doing sexual kinks those characters like (Still testing this)
  • Edited MC hospital end
  • Edited Teufel prologue ending
  • Edited Sky prologue ending
  • edited Norrie prologue ending
  • Removed a ton of unnecessary variables and layered images and replace them with a more shorter process

I am missing a ton more stuff that my melted brain cant process at the moment... I have been burning myself this last few weeks to bring it as soon as possible, at the moment what it needs it is a ton of optimization stuff and organize the code perfectly so I don't get in trouble on future updates.

Also If you are messaging me at the moment and I haven't answer you yet, it is because I have all my social media muted so I could focus 100% on the game until the release, just to let you know, I will answer them all once the update gets completed and delivered to the public

Also Christmas is near❤ and also TW anniversary (New years eve) Santa will help me out, I have hope
Can you post the images as well?

Thanks for sharing! Looks like some solid work has been happening.


Actually, based on what he wrote here and depending on the implementation, he did a lot of work to iron out some issue I identified with the second prologue release, and implemented quite a few systems that could have taken a while to script/code-especially if they are truly responsive/dynamic and tie into other variables in a meaningful way. IF--and this is a big IF--he established templates that can be reutilized for future parts of the game, and he is as focused as implied in this post, then he could have done a lot of work to set up for much faster future releases due to having a strong script/code base to work from.

Snats has oversold some things in the past, but based on some of the previews over the last three years, he's been working on some ambitious systems that I frankly wasn't sure if he had the chops to implement. If he succeeded, then he deserves a ton of credit for increasing his skills in Ren'Py, especially if he did so without hiring a professional scripter, even more so if he learned actual Python code and not just Ren'Py scripting.

Something I really zeroed in on is the layered images. He experimented with layers and masking, and frankly I feel those tend to fall flat and remove a lot of the immersion and depth that you want from a visual novel. Masking is fine if done correctly (however, he did run into minor alignment issues that I've pointed out in the past), but layered sprites tend to create dissonance between the characters and their environment, especially if you don't work to maintain the proper depth, lighting, and perspectives relative to the characters' surroundings. He stepped away from that for the last release; I think to positive effect. If he was able to completely remove layering and still end up with a fast, efficient, scene framing and rendering process, then that would be great for the future visual fidelity of the game.

Looking forward to the release, and if it's as good as it has the potential to be, I might consider supporting him for the first time ever, as it proves that he's not only working hard, but working smart on the game in a way that he hasn't since even the old version.
Do not support him, I made that mistake. His discord is the biggest echo chamber there is and if you go against that echo at all you get kicked.

Oh I just meant the chances of supporting him would go from 0% to like 5% if the update looks good under the hood. Not gonna happen anytime soon. I've never even spoken on the discord and either he or Apexslide banned me just cuz of what I say on here, lol. Kinda pathetic considering I'm not even one of the assholes who shits on them just to shit on them. If I had to guess who did it though, it's probably Apexslide. They're both petty enough to have done it though.

Broke out of my coffin just to inform y'all innocent victims of inflations and gooning addiction. Snats said "close to the end of the development for the prologue" not an exact date yet and he said that one or two years ago this exact thing. If my estimation is correct, we are going to get an update next December. Be smart about putting money in the stocks :WeSmart:

"The prologue" You mean the part that was, twenty minutes in the original and now an hour minimum? The same intro that's infinitely worse? All for a game years behind schedule?

I don't think that was the reason here. Dude was doing pretty well on patreon and SS. And the story wasn't even close to being finished.
The original version had a lot of issues, specially in the code, so I actually think when he started the remake was in order to organize things better so he could release stuff faster. But for some weird reason the dude just likes to overcomplicate things and now we are in this mess.
I like the idea of having a lot of characters, but probably more than half of the characters he is creating, will only have a couple of scenes in the whole game and will not be super relevant to the story.
Unfortunately it seems like this will become another hero's harem guild. I hope I am wrong but right now it's a little hard to be optimistic about this game's future.
There were no bugs in the original release. I've had to rollback multiple times on the remake, never once on the original. This is 100% a remake to draw out as much cash as possible while not getting a real job.

You know it's sad when a game like (monster girl paradox) is basically fucking finished, and this game is not even done with it's prologue yet. Crazy how most porn games I've run into, have yet to even come close to the og TW....wtf was this dev thinking man? THE ONLY save n grace for this mf is how fast the ball gets to rolling with newer updates after this mythical!..? 1.9 bs drop. If we can get to the house and back to where the og was in almost 2 years time, then HEY! I just have one thing to say then!


WHY TF DID YOU NOT HIRE A GOD DAMN PROF CODER?? and other staff to help you out??? it's hard not to say you're a lazy piece of shit at this point my guy. Ah hold on gotta take a shit bb. Okay back. yk what? I'm done wasting my time typing this little rant of mine out, I'll be back maybe when 1.9 drops and actually give the damn "remake" lmao....a go to see what's up.
