VN Ren'Py Completed Wicked Choices: Book One [Remastered v1.0.1] [ASLPro3D]

[DA22]

As long as i am not so old that im forced to use Viagra when the next update comes, im fine with waiting.:closedeyesmile:

Well as long as the viagra is still doing it's job, nothing to complain about. Though the pirate guys will first get a look at the March update, before it will be time to spend some enjoyable time with wicked little FAP in April and beyond.x'D

@ASLPro3D Whoever is your writer: Make sure he/she is firmly nailed, tied and locked in properly! Feed him/her but dont ever let them out. I have been through many many novels and games but your writing is the first time i can really call it a mature and meaningful writing without all that load of premature or insecure bullshit found in most others! Great work.

@ASLPro3D himself is the writer. Also is a book writer. We need take care of him.

 

[Palanto]

Yep the writer is ASLPro3D himself So don't worry he doesn't need to be bound to a chair or something

 

[DA22]

You are very sure of that Palanto? Maybe not to write no, but for rendering and such?

 

[Palanto]

Haha, well we're close to reaching the second goal, maybe now he can get an artist for book 2 or an artist close enough to send him the assets via mail

Strangely Enough, I have never posted, I have simply been lurking and leeching here for about 6 months (to be honest) this is simply the best adult game I have played, I am interested in the characters, the writing is fantastic, and realistic, the renders are great quality.. And simply put, you now have another supporter on your Paetron.

Great Game,

Thank you @VG27, thank you so much for the feedback and your support, we appreciate it greatly and look forward to keeping you entertained for some time. Just don't disappear back into the ether... feel free to chat and interact, it helps greatly in the creative process to hear the thoughts of many.

That would be great news if true, especially since it would also free up his time in near future on his strengths and health.

Hi @tooldev and thank you so much for the kind words and praise!

As @Palanto Games and the other's here have indicated, I am indeed the writer of the game and can't even begin to express how thankful that I am to have found an appreciative audience for my writing and madness; and I assure you, so long as that audience continues to remain and grow, there will be no need in keeping me tethered in my office chair in restraints, as writing is as enjoyable to me as sex (well, maybe not quite as much as sex, but comes in as a CLOSE SECOND! x'D), so here I will remain as long as people will have me.

Please... don't be a stranger, continue to hang out with us and share your thoughts here with us and the others, please! If I may be so bold as to say, I haven't had this kind of feedback to my writing since my days of working in the comic book industry... even my novel (which I felt was very good, just poorly marketed) hasn't generated this sort of response, so I sort of felt I had lost my edge and that people were more interested in "Twilight" or "50 Shades of Grey" style crap than the sort of work I do...

...it is ALWAYS good to hear that such is not the case.

 

[ASLPro3D]

Thanks guys, and you are oh so right, @Palanto Games... no need to bind me up, just yet!

Yes, finally, after nearly 8 months we are nearing our second goal which will see @Palanto Games getting a steady paycheck instead of the piddley amount that he's been getting thrown each month from me for the work that he's been doing and the HUGE amount of pressure he's helped to take off of my shoulders.

Honestly, in regard to stats and membership over at Patreon, we are doing quite well for only being out for 250+ days with our game, compared to others, BUT... I am hoping, in time, that he and I can start making the same kind of money that we see those like Dark Silver, MrDots and DarkCookie make to expand our operation to bring in additional, high end artists and programmers to take some of the pressure off of us and increase our output for Patreon's and fans of our work.

I know I probably sound like a broken record by now, but I really want to introduce everyone to one or two more stories/games a month from us, besides Wicked Choices and already have the novelized scripts for the others pretty much done... so it is reasonable to believe that with an increased staff, and a staggered release schedule, we could easily produce and maintain another one or two titles to fully immerse and, slowly, begin to change and shape the indie adult game genre into something that is more beneficial and rewarding to the fans as well as other creators.

It is my belief, the more solid the foundation that we make for the creators and the community for this genre, the more control we'll eventually have in regard to control of content.

To put, not to fine a point on it, if we can prove out a larger income stream and revenue base than there already is, the more likely other "Patreon" style distributors will arrive to try and get a slice of that pie... making it necessary for those distributors to come to a virtual "bargaining" table to court creators... giving creators a little more control than they currently have over their creations... and less in the hands of a sole distributor who can change their "terms of service" or "payment" options mid-stream and disrupt business for those creators.

Lofty and crazy goals... sure... but, then again, people thought the same when I introduced the first adult 3D website (Renderotica) and online stores for creators to sell their creations to others through both Renderosity and 'Rotica (and eventually adopted on Daz3D, Content Paradise and Turbosquid) to make the games that people are now playing possible for everyone...

...so, it CAN be done... after all, I did it before.

First things first, though, continue to generate income and support with "Wicked Choices", generate the reputation and good will that I need to expand and grow things for everyone... but, first, I need to work on April's release for everyone! penedeyewink:

Completely agree with this, the sooner the better after end of last episode and your mean teasing of us poor players. :evilsmile: But as always, take the time that you need, looking forward to it though.

 

[ASLPro3D]

Addendum: Actually, I misspoke previously stating that we've been out for 250+ days... I was in error, we've only been out for 220 days as of today... somehow feels longer though!

Yeah I'm really impressed with the writing. All it is missing to be perfect is animations.

Wishful thinking

 

[ASLPro3D]

Wishful thinking

I have thought about it several times and after trying it a couple of times to see how it would look, nixed the idea... one, I am pushing the limits as it is with art (I am more of a writer than an artist) and second, stringing two or three images together in a repeating pattern isn't "animation"... it's poor man's, lazy rotoscope at best.

To me, animation is 30-60fps (minimum) so for 5 seconds of animation, your looking at a minimum of 150-300 frames to make it really eye popping and seamless. I do MoCap and Keyframe animation clean up work for my normal job... and maybe if I had a rig to use, then do the cleanup work on it, I'd consider putting animation into Wicked Choices... but don't have the time to do it one frame at a time and keep a schedule between releases and my normal job.

That might change as things progress to a point where I am focused on Wicked Choices full time, but as it stands right now... no, can't do it... but yeah, having the tentacles in the first chapter moving and thrashing around the girls would be nice; having the MC's niece's head bobbing while giving him head; or seeing Syrina's wings fluttering as the MC strokes her to orgasm on his coffee table would be awesome...

...just can't do it right now, sorry.

OMG!!!!

 

[SexyFeetLover]

Here is my view on animations for WC. Dont do it!

Why?
Because as it is now, it feels like a true visual novel. Reminds me of the good old days when i was young a read comics.
My own brain fills in the animation parts, this way it feels more like i am taking part in the novel. Might just be me because i have a vivid imagination and can easily fill in the blanks. Think it would be better to just ad 1-3 extra rendered pictures.

For example;
Pic1: MC cums on her face.
Pic2: A close shot from a different angle of her cum covered face. (Closed eyes or a surprised face. Depends on the story and character + situation).
Extra Pic3: Female character is licking her cum covered lips with the tip of her tongue gently. (Again from an different angle and distance, and depending on what situation and characters are involved. So she might as well be angry about it or enjoying it).
Pic4: Female character walks away or lays down in bed next to you.

The visual stimulation of 1 extra added pic outweighs the need of a short animation from my pov.

Dont go Twillight and 50 shades on us. There are enough games here with the romantic angle, like DMD. I do have a romantic side that needs to be fed at times. However, as i said there are plenty of games with that angle already.

 

[DA22]

Well for mainly story based game I can live very well without animations as long as story is strong enough to replace them, even if they could be great.

Concerning twilight or 50 shades, I can not know for sure since ASLPRO is the writer, but considering his writing up till now, I am pretty sure we will see some sickly cloying romantic scenes with some ladies if you make the correct choices in game. :biggrin: I am pretty sure as well though the game as a whole will not be centered around getting with your Love interest, but around the story and choices you will make. Ending up in more or less healthy relations will be part of the outcome as well though.

Unless mean teaser Jack of course has a bigger twist in store as I expect and game will be a RPGM running quests game on big maps running for an hour to get to quest and raise your affection with girls after introduction phase is over. :evilsmile:

Agh you got me there, and here I thought we hid the fact that we're moving to RPGM with chapter 6 pretty well x'D

Nah just kidding... well the idea is a little different from your usual "grind" in VN's with RPG elements.... But I won't say more until we're getting there Just be patient my friend x'D


edit says: Well don't bite on the word "grind" to much, you won't ever feel it as a grind if we do it right

 

[DA22]

No problem if we have to work a bit, especially if when you progress through a grind the reactions you get from people change so you have a feeling of progress. I know this is sometimes impossible to avoid due to time constraints between updates and content to be implemented.

I am always disappointed though if in a game for example you get to home base with a girl and you meet her in living room after and she is still mad at you or she does not know you yet. Instead of acknowledging something did change between the two of you. Of course you could explain this away with some trick like amnesia, but I would think a natural flow of progression is very important for story.

 

[ASLPro3D]

OMG!!!!

@UncleVT, I know... right! Enough to send ripples of excited pleasure through you as you think about it... LOL

As you can see, I thought about it, even tried it in a few of those areas... but the results never matched close enough to what I saw in my head... oh, but if I could, if I could.... Mmmmmm!!!

I agree.

I am and have been a big collector (Otaku) of Japanese VN's since... man, the mid 90's and was always captivated by stories that were done by KEY (Clannad, Kanon, AIR, D.A. Cappo, etc...) complex adult storytelling that evoked emotion... quite unlike the "Leisure Suit Larry" adult "fluff" game attempts by others outside of Japan.

I knew that if I was ever to do games of my own, with my own stories, that I wanted them to be complex and meaningful stories that would capture people's imaginations, hearts and leave them wanting more... an adult game, with an adult story that didn't make a mockery of adult's intelligence.

As for adding additional images, man... I am already stretched pretty thin and my "graphic arts" ability in Photoshop is rather limited... as I said, I am more of a writer than I am an artist... and while I may've built 3D Websites for other artists, it was so that I could gather potential talent to help me in my storytelling abilities and save me from trying to do "graphic art"...

...still finding artists willing to work on adult projects other than their own, is difficult and really haven't made the sort of capital that I'd like yet to pay someone for those efforts yet (I don't like people to work for free...).

One of the reasons why we are hoping to add an artist to our staff.

When I mentioned Twilight and 50 Shade of Grey, I was more referring to the juvenile writing and storytelling of the authors... one was filled with whinny angst throughout the entire series and the other was mush-ridden drivel about a Dom/Sub relationship written by an individual who obviously had zero clue about the actual lifestyle... I tried to read it to find out what the hype was all about and couldn't stomach the poor writing ability of the author past the first or second chapter before setting the book down in disgust and revulsion.

Will there be romance in Wicked Choices... yes, I think there already is, between Lynara and Carina... how that relationship, of course is going to depend entirely on the players though... it will be there if desired, but other routes will also be available, as well.

Will it be sticky sweet, angst-ridden filth that sours one stomach and makes you want to club the characters face in with a meat tenderizer? No, hopefully not... but this game will be about forging complex, adult, relationships and maintaining them to achieve your goals.
