VN Ren'Py Where It All Began [Ch. 3 Full] [Oceanlab]

[Abhai]

You can (or could) however just not pay her any attention, turn her advances down (without cheating) and she (the player) still gains the opportunity to cheat on you. Obviously, MC would not know this but, as the player we do so you can then go about 'your business' reletively guilt free.

How much of that will change remains to be seen which is why I haven't even tried 0.06 yet as would rather experience that episode after playing the reworked story so it all flows properly.

One of the things I didnt like in the "old" game is those "multple protagonists" game- parts (though without any tag).
I absolutely had no interest in Miru (sorry girl), and particularly wasnt interested to play as her/mc.
There is some (slim) hope from my side though that could be changed with this rework (or at least to give us an option, similar to trans/futa, ntr or so switches - interested or not to go with "multiple" mod).

The choices for the other characters got removed in the rework.

It's a cheap way of "selling a decision" to the player and marking it as valid because he made it himself.
Even when the choice was totally out of character.

Other characters are now only influenced by the MC's decisions.

Great, glad to hear that!
It could be perhaps the most important improvement (despite those new girls looks and all) in my eyes at least.

Huh.

I'm curious, how many people tossed Miru aside for the other LIs? I've only the one playthrough, and my MC stayed faithful to her.

Im one of those people
Leia, Katie and Dana´s model from the original game were way better than Miru´s model.
It is known whether the dev plans to improve Katie, Leia or Dana's model as he did with Miru ?

I hope we see this soon. Really looking forward to it.

They have been yes though not as drastically in the case of Leah and Katie (have not seen Dana).

Hello,

So, in the last post, I said I would be doing another Dev log till the end of the last month.
There was just one problem... All the previews I had looked way too similar because the first 70% of the update is about Miru's and MC's life. So I decided to postpone the dev log and keep working until we reach the next scene so that I can give visually different previews.

With the new Chapter 1, you will not get dropped into the call from Leia immediately like in the old WIAB. Old WiAB didn't even have an intro.

Today, I can also show a comparison again. (Only possible if I kept the scene in the rework)

In general most of the scenes are now much more fleshed out. No more weird jumps. A very simple example, here is the wake-up scene from Day 2 in the old and new WiAB.

Now that I am writing this Dev log, I find myself at a loss for topics. We need to reach Chapter 2 and meet many of the other people before I can do the usual big Dev logs again.

Chapter 1 will exactly end at the same spot as the old one did. In Helen's room.
It is also twice as big as the old one.

I am at a little loss for different previews here because I also do not want to preview anything that could spoiler something.

But as you can see in this render, you will get a little insight into Miru's and MC's daily life... Before and after the infamous call.
Nothing better than a hot coffee and watching two people fight after a night out.

As some of you might know, I did a poll for Summer's Gone about one character that will be converted to Blender. With whom I will experiment and create some image sets.

I will do the same for WiAB after the release of Chapter 2. So that you had a look at most of the characters and the changes I made.
And before I waste more time trying to find something to write about, I'd rather get back to work.

Absolute goddess tier babe!! Competition is going to get sooo fierce! And it is going to be so hard to be the full cheating slut that I was before... I can already see a full competition in my heart between Miru, Katie and Dana.

Wait.. MC has heterochromia or I am seeing something wrong? Will characters react to that? it is quite an uncommon feature. Will Leia also have it?

Can't wait to play this game!

Looking at that image, I would say it may have something to do with the lighting effects used in the rendering process, but his eyes are certainly 2 different colours.

But still very interesting and well spotted.

If nothing has changed, and if i remember correctly from some of the first previews/updates here, mc with heterochromia was/is ocean's idea for the new/revamped mc.

Yeah, just checked the previous picture of him and he also has it. But in that picture is harder to see as it is under less light and my attention usually went to the babe on the right.

I think at the very first post with a revamped mc, there was the picture with those freaky eyes close-up.
There also were a few pages of comments regarding the new characters looks, quite similar situation as the last few pages
edit. just have found that first post (though images are gone), there is note that heterochromia is intended trait to improve our dear mc...(i was/am fiercely against it , yet im in minority obviously as most of fans are delighted with d,becham/j.bieber or similar "guys"look )
edit2. ok, you were quicker in finding it, so nevermand my first edit here
edit3 (and the final one)
here is my a bit better/more detailed description of the new mc:

I say&feel contrary, unfortunately...regarding "a new mc", imo, he looks like an unfortunate offspring of B.Kaulitz&J.Bieber on steroids ( ) ...a true monstrosity, kinda, and the game has no intent to become a proper horror? or has?
yet, whatever, tastes differ, im guessing ladies (or those feeling like it) find him "just adorable", as any badass pop-rock star should be (pictured)...

Just found your comment on it. I did not notice at that time, I was really too focused on new Miru. I really love her new looks. Remains to see her personality. I love crazy girls, but the original game did not make you care at all about her. That is supposed to change now with the introduction.

or Miru I agree, yet for mc, im not sure....wth is the thing with heterochromia?
why to stop there, why not epidermolysis bullosa as well?
and ofc, as the final touch he could/should add two dicks, or at least forked dick, to make mc a complete beauty.

I don't get what's going on with games progress can someone explain it to me like they do to a kid.

The thing I got from this dev log seemed to me like only chapter 1 has been reworked and added some new things and dev is gonna go for chapter 2 now.

If what I got from dev log is true then does that mean we will get the game in year 2050 ?

Thing is like this. Last update that was released included up to chapter 6. However, only the last chapter was in "rework mode". The first 5 chapters need to be done again. The rework is not simply better graphics. The whole story and mood of the novel is changing. While the current game is quite interesting and absolutely not bad (I actually love it) there are things that just don't work well. For example, the current girlfriend of the main character is barely given any time as girlfriend or the behavior of the main character regarded some events is inconsistent to how the story will proceed.

So.. what is there now is going to change massively. You can still try it out (one of the few games that everytime I played it I started from scratch and always loved it and read every single line), but know that it will change radically.

Love new Miru's look, but will totally miss the kinky smile of the previous model (see previous on last page, first vs second pic)

is this game completed, abandoned or on hold ? why no tag ?

this is just a fancyer way of saying it`s on hold
i see the last update was 7-8 months ago
Icstor is probably in "active development" as well
