VN Ren'Py Yesterday's Crossroads [Ch.3 v0.4.1a] [CHAQUINN0]

[Adhdclassic]

Nah the asian girl is Kim (Da-Som Kim) technically. Kimberly is the girl with the tattoos. Michelle's sister is Alessa. And yes it does sound like you need to replay this game.

Its long update waits then the games you play while you wait things tend to get jumbled. When the next update comes out I will play the entire game again.

I feel that I tend to replay my favorite games every update because of this and other games maybe every 2-3 if I like it alot otherwise I just stick to updates on games I follow but dont love

Yeah I get it. I've played this one alot, every girl has at least one dedicated save. However I do find myself replaying this every now and then, as I really think that CHAQUINN0 makes some of the most beautiful LI's and renders in the AVN genre.

Btw, I suppose you wanted to mention the dev, in which case you need to type @ followed by the nickname, you'll get suggestions as you type. I was wrong last time, my bad.

Your story is all over the place and isn't making any sense yet, nice looking models but some of the relationships are ridiculous and very hard to imagine.
please at least make all paths optional and not force anyone on anyone.

Playing AVNs requires a bit of suspension of disbelief. After all, if the stories were entirely realistic, many relationships simply wouldn’t happen. This is especially true considering that most AVNs revolve around teenagers with "underdog" profiles.

Would you mind sharing which of these relationships bothered you the most and that you think are unrealistic?

Dev Log #8 - Chapter 4
View attachment 4236210


Hey, everyone!

I’ve been posing scenes and testing the finished content over the past few weeks. There’s still quite a lot left to do, but everything is progressing smoothly.

I want to touch on some topics that came up over the past few days too;

Riley (Kimberly’s sister)
As I mentioned a few days ago on the Discord server, Riley has become quite popular since Chapter 3 was released. In fact, there have been more requests to make her a love interest than for Kimberly and Candace. Based on this feedback, I’ve made some slight changes to her storyline.

Initially, she was planned to be just a supporting character for Kimberly. However, moving forward, Riley will also be available as a romanceable character. Keep in mind that Riley will not have an in-depth storyline like the main LIs. Instead, she will have a role similar to Vera’s—with a separate storyline with some focus but not as much depth or attention as the main girls.

For those interested in pursuing her already in Chapter 4, make sure that you were supportive of Zeke at the beginning of Chapter 3, and that you’re not actively on Kimberly’s route.

Music
A while ago, I mentioned that each girl would have her own theme music. I’m happy to announce that this is now a reality. These tracks will be included in some of the girls’ hangout/date scenes from previous chapters, as part of the upcoming reworks update and, of course, upcoming updates.

All the tracks are now available on the SoundCloud playlist. You can listen to them there. The newer songs are at the bottom of the playlist.

You must be registered to see the links

And finally, here’s a sneak peek at some of the tough choices that will start appearing as the story progresses.

Decisions, decisions...

As always, thank you so much for your continuous support, this way I can put more investment towards the project itself.

Have a great weekend, everyone! ♥♥

I'm sorry every time he says the words not on Kimberly's route I have a mini-stroke

it's like a blind person trying to comprehend colors

or trying to describe some unknown reality you've never seen before

I personally had no issue with the relationships in this game. Other than maybe the Julia ones moves a tad too quickly. I guess the Kim was is also a bit of a coincidence upon her return. But honestly never felt any of them had a unrealistic feel to it. Just perhaps the timing is a bit too good at times but that is fine after all this is a game.

nothing is forced unless you count the prologue and brief flashbacks but that is for story telling purposes

Things will start falling into place over time, but if you want realism in an adult visual novel, you're looking in the wrong place.

I don't mean to be rude but, the options are there, if you don't pay attention and say yes to everything, then it's not my fault...

speaking of choices , not 100 % sure but if I recall correctly I think I read or saw this next update some of our decisions could start impacting some relationships. Would you say next update would be a good time to make a manwhore / drama or chaos save if I want to see the outcomes. currently I only have solo paths haha

Yep!
Chapter 4 is already stirring up some chaos. The set of choices I mentioned in the latest devlog, for example, impacts Julia's relationship while advancing Candace's. However, you can totally suggest Candace to spend time with her on another day and advance both their relationships at the same time.

In Chapter 2, you could have completely avoided Olivia finding out about Julia by skipping her art exposition. This allows you to start Olivia's route by asking her out at the end of Chapter 3, this way you can be with both at the same time.

Chapter 4 has two more situations like these, but I won’t spoil them. Suffice it to say, things are really heating up, and Chapter 4 will already start some of the imminent chaos.

Whats unrealistic is the whole situation with Zeke, and his ridiculous marriage and him playing around with anyone who is female, then the MC not only meeting all these perfect 10 girls and getting close to Julia but still asking all the others to go out with him. I just find it hard to believe that anyone would not want Julia or Olivia as exclusive and not have to deal with the future problems of them finding out he is going out with so many others

 

[OptimusCrime]

I don't know what else is going on.

I'm just here for Michelle.

what you say is true - but why then do you make it impossible to choose - they are all perfect 10's, most people never meet a perfect 10 in their entire lives - but in these AVN's everyone is one

 

[Elduriel]

then the MC not only meeting all these perfect 10 girls and getting close to Julia but still asking all the others to go out with him

for fucks sake, you do actually realize that's all on you, as the player, right? No one is forcing your hand to ask out a girl on a date or have sex with them. You, as the player are given options to choose. If you decide to be a player, the consequences are on you. The dev made it all optional. Given it's a not a harem game, you'll run into problems sooner or later if you do that. The solution is quite easy... make multiple saves for the LIs you are interested in.

You can say that same thing about pretty much any game that you sleep around. Which is why in a game like this I tend to stick with solo paths and saves and make a manwhore one for consequences . I do disagree with you saying it's unrealistic about the girls not finding out. I mean it has only been 3 chapters what do you expect them to find out right away, I think that's more unrealistic. It makes more sense for them to be kept in the dark and only find out when you as the player make some poor decsions that causes them to find out. The dev has said they will have consequences and find out.

I don't know what else is going on.

I can't ever decide between Michelle and Julia personally. even tho I do play every path lol

actually most of the time so do I - I find the girl that reflects the type I like but in this AVN it is getting impossible to choose between Julia, Olivia and Michelle

correct it is on the MC, but wjy does the Dev make it so impossible to choose - that is why many Dev's add the harem path, it's totally unrealistic but solves the issue in game stories

okay dude you are not picking up what I'm putting down it looks like. What I said was, those choices are on you personally, not the MC. And you don't need to choose... again, multiple playthroughs exist, you just don't have to be lazy about it. But whatever, another harem complainer, who clearly can't appreciate a good story that is not a harem fuckfest. So I'll put you on the list so I don't have to see that garbage again.

haha those are the 3 I have hard time picking as well. Well I have an easier time not picking Olivia over Julia and Michelle. I will say Michelle's sister might come into that mix as well for me depending on her path proceeds in future updates. As I do like how she is an ex girlfriend but to early to say how much I like her yet but she is ahead of the rest I didn't mention at least , especially since she will be getting a solo path.
