Ren'Py Abandoned WhimsiDate [2023-11-02] [mike24]

[martin24]

Overview:
(Please read the developer's notes before trying the game, it's in a very early stage)

Welcome to WhimsiDate
WhimsiDate will be a dating and romance game with explicit content. The story is about Shane and Dana, two young people who are adapting to their new university life in a new city. The characters will be filled with clichés and stereotypes, but that doesn't necessarily make it negative; in fact, these elements work well with the overall tone of the work.
The game will include typical visual novel mechanics, such as a calendar and time system, an affinity and romance system between characters, and some additional mechanics that I will discuss later during development. My goal is to create a rich and dynamic story where player decisions have a real impact on the plot's development. Regarding sexual content, you'll be able to choose to play as a man or a woman and explore your sexuality without restrictions, regardless of your orientation.

Four different introductions? I hope you're aware of how much work you'll have while keeping up with this branching design. If it branches out further in the future, yeah, godspeed.

 

[Happyslappy169]

Good luck with your Herculean game

 

[Lerd0]

..thx for the share...good luck...

well, here is a game proposal that works very well in unity. characterizations, character models, skins, etc. all variables are simplified in this engine. I don't think renpy is a safe choice for this type of approach, unless the dev is willing to cover all possible variables one by one. I hope the project works out. good luck to him.

Why is it that when you set the text speed to max, it still loads slow? Like one letter at a time. This is not how people want to play visual novels. Also, starting off with a dream sequence, ugh...

Lots of issues with this one. Will wait till a fix or a new update.

Ah cool tags futa and femboys sign me up! (boots up game) you can't set text to instant? hm oh well... And wow it is a sandbox game aswell gl dev but no thanks, needs to have sandbox tag added.

 

[Jove76]

Trying to please everyone is almost certainly either going to result in development that is so insanely slow, no one will ever be pleased, or the workload is so immense you will get overwhelmed and quit entirely. Good luck - But I believe you are going to need a great deal more than just luck, for this project to survive.

here is a game proposal, in unity 9 out of 10, the games are unplayable, userinterface sucks, it takes forever to load, and is extremly slow on 4k monitors.

And with renpy at least you can extract the .rpa files and see if you are missing anything...

Well, it’s still damp, very damp, but there is potential. Subjective: 1. I hate sandboxes. 2. The game crashes to the menu if you click in the wrong place. But in general, good luck to the developers. Any road begins with the first step, and you have taken your first step.

I guess I did everything that is available right now. In all honesty, didn't expect it to turn all sandboxy on me, but did like the fact that I could play a female character, and I was able to name her Jen, after yours truly, and could make her lesbian, again, after yours truly, but the sandbox part, kinda got lost there for a moment. But with all the things saying, "Can't do that right now" or "Under Construction" is why I think I did everything, and going to bed caused a big "UNDER CONSTRUCTION" then Poof, back to the main menu. Glad I saved before I was having the time pass by studying. Anyways, other than the sandbox part, I did like it, had some interesting relationships going there, but due to the sandboxes, unless someone makes an official mod for this game, don't see future updates making it to the list itself, but maybe the secondary list I have for times when I have time to play on those.

The descriptions do not always line up with the pictures. For instance when Dana is sucking on a dildo after a few lines it describes her putting it on the floor and riding it but that scene does not happen until several lines after the event is described.
