VN Ren'Py Where the Heart Is [S1 Rev1] [CheekyGimp]

[ScottyLQ]

Not to try to nitpick or complain, but I literally have nothing else to talk about regarding this game at the moment and I just got done watching some documentary on conspiracies...

So the reason the game didn't meet its end-of-February deadline (the day I skipped out on my niece's awakening to christianity) was because the first artist guy ghosted, right? And then the other artist had trouble about a month ago and that's why things slowed down even more... But I just remembered one of the latest (one before last I think) CheekyGimp updates mentioning that he had just finished the script, and that one can't be more than a few weeks old. So if the dialogue wasn't ready by the original deadline, then there wasn't gonna be a release at the end of February anyway, right?

I'm also 65% sure Covid was created by Carole Baskin.

Fucking Carole Baskins

Jenna seems to have the least development of the three main girls so far. I hope this upcoming update gives us more of her (which it seems like it will). Katie has gotten a lot of focus, which is probably why she's my favorite.

I wonder if all the branches are going to merge basically into discrete mini groups. Seems like you could almost divide the game into three harems by each main girl with some slight overlap.

Jenna has more coming. In fact she is going to be a big feature in EP 17 and 18 if things go as we plan (admittedly plans have sucked lately).

To summarize. Aeilion ghosted us in December before Christmas during Ep 16. We were still able to finish the update mostly as planned with a bit of a rush. January I was able to keep working on the script (but just me) and art wasn't touched as Cheeky was busy all of January hunting/interviewing artists and figuring out what we lost with Aeil. By Feb we picked up Cameo and Red for art and worked on getting them up to speed, while Cheeky worked on replacing/recreating assets lost with Aeil. By around the end of Feb we had a lot of the script (definitely enough for a beta which we were aiming for in March), but still not much art was finished and unfortunately things didn't work out with Cameo. Then came March, we picked up Cell to replace Cameo and Covid decided to make things more complicated. Red was doing great work as our primary, but real life has reduced his ability to contribute for sometime now. Cell has been doing wonders picking up the slack, and Cheeky has been rendering like mad himself, but trust that no one is more frustrated with things than we all are. Which is why Cheeky plans to halt patreon payments until this Ep is released and anyone who was a patreon since January will still get it even if they understandably halt payments if they send him a message on patreon.

But what role does Carole Baskin killing her husband play in all this?

acewinz Hey can i ask you a question ?

I use Walkthrough mod and it's like suggest/support "Lily , Katie , Debbie" Lesbianism path. (Beach and after it's all about that)
So if i chose don't support them about Lesbianism it's change things ? or still they go for it in next updates ?
I realy don't like lesbian content if MC not Female..

I hope you guys understand why everybody is so nervous. You kinda created a cliffhanger (idk if it was intentional or not) the size of Half-Life 2 Episode 2. And going the same path for now makes everybody a bit edgy, but this actually should be a compliment for your work. If you hadn't done such a great job nobody was going to give crap about release dates, story and all the other usual stuff. The fact that people are so inpatient and passionate about your game, should really say how good of a job you've done so far. So, please don't take the complains the bad way. As the old saying goes "take that frown, turn it upside down"

What a bummer with this delays, I mean I really don't care about any games around here when they are released not even this one if it wasn't for that bitch Elaine she's something else she can play me however she wants and she probably will but I don't care cuz I'm a sucker for her, fuckin' bitch but I love her

Where is the Android incest mod??

l have a play playthrough just for Lily ( like l'm going just after her ). And i must say it's realy confusing as to why can't l watch T.V. with her in ep.14 the M.C. hes nothing else to do but he runs off anyway ...... Why? ( Oh yeah and when l say just Lily l mean just her did't even support lesbianism path)

I don't like lesbian content if MC not women but Walkthrough mod say "support Lesbianism" but i chose other way i am curious about if we don't chose support we still see the content or not ..

Nah l rly don't think so. I mean if we don't pick Lily as a G.F. in this game than we don't see her content same with Angle. So l think that you are safe.

Going just after Lily is definitely my preferred path.

 

[SecretDesire]

I prefer Debbie (she is my type) but too bad she is in to women... Specially Lily i don't want to share what's mine..

Any news on next update , I really look forward for Jo path

I hear ya. Part of the reason I was hoping we could at least push out a beta back in march so we could alleviate that to an extent.

I think by now we know. You seem to mention it a lot.

No worries. As painful as it is for writing the separate paths, we will account for the players choices on lesbianism (that is what they are there for). If you don't encourage it, it won't happen. (As in it things will play out differently, not just you won't see it.) I even hear pretty regularly from my friend Wolf Plays™ about this because he doesn't wanna help Debbie and didn't encourage her lesbianism (he doesn't wanna share her). There is a plan for that particular path. I just suggest you be willing to help Debbie (if you like her or just want to bang her) and let the lesbianism variables handle the rest.
