discussion Abandoned Ren'Py DAZ Power to the People [v0.099.1] [Power to the People Games]

[TheRoyalHunter2022]

It is coming I apologize took me a little bit to see a notification here. I am working on it but I just got married so I had to take a little bit of time.

Congratulation to Newly Weds Wish you a happy life

 

[PerverTeacher]

What a great surprise this one turned out to be. Eager to see more.

hey mister dev-man, I just started the game so I don't have much to input but could you make the text-box either scale or smaller? i can't see half the screen and have to constantly hide it. On a different note, your renders look great keep it up

Try the Ren'Py Transparent Text Box Mod
I am not sure if I am allowed to link to another site here, so I suggest that you do a Google search for 'renpy transparent text box' and that should guide you to it.
It is just a simple, single file that you add to the Game folder, works a treat

Thanks, is this on Android or PC? Android I'm working on making it less obnoxious but I hadn't heard it was bad on PC. However with that mod that will make my life much easier

PC only? I'm going to check it out. Hopefully I can just integrate it quick and easy. With credit of course

Out of curiosity, i haven't played yet, but if an update is about to drop, i'd just wait for that, do you have a more specific time table at this point?

The discord is active, but no new updates have been posted since July.

The discord is active, but no new updates have been posted since July.

He is actively developing, just Real Life keeps interrupting progress a bit frequently.
However, some of us higher up in his discord have been seeing some of his renders that he is working on. All i can say is: Hang on to your butts, big things are coming!

6 months later still waiting for an update. Thinking yet another 1-release wonder before getting abandoned.

6 months later still waiting for an update. Thinking yet another 1-release wonder before getting abandoned.

I can assure you development continues. I do apologize for the long wait. My wife and I are near disabled with progressive neurological disorders and I have kids, dogs and work full time. I'm slow, but I want it to be right.

I want to produce the best artwork and writing I can at my current skill level. I'm picky, I wind up redoing proactively every render in each release at least twice and with my disorder it's hard to set things up so it takes a while.

I am working as hard as I can to get it out. The script is going to the proofers as soon as I step through it once and then I'll be working on the coding. I have to apologize for my overly optimistic time frame on my last release.

I'll be explaining my situation at the end of the next release if you want to read about it, but suffice it to say the universe hates my wife and I and I am and will likely remain slow simply bc my body doesn't move in the ways I want it to. But I truly love the girls and the story and while I'm alive with a PC this will continue to be developed.

We're so grateful for those who've supported us (my wife and I do this), knowing my health situation. I don't want to be trying to meet time frames I am physically unable to. Plus, I want to produce the best thing I can and I regularly rewrite and modify scenes, re render them etc bc I want everything to look as good as I can. It'll be slow I'm sorry to say, but I am working on it every day to produce a quality release. I do hope the release will be worth the wait for everyone, but I don't want to release something I don't like either.

Please visit the discord or send me a dm if you want to personally discuss anything or have questions or concerns.

I apologize again that I've also been away from the forum. My wife is starting to take over the posting bc I'm really bad at it, so you may see her soon here as well. Thank you for your feedback, I do appreciate the frustration. I was a player before I was a dev, so I understand the frustration of devs taking forever and we will strive to be more communicative and transparent

Thanks pgm. I'm bad at communicating so I'm really glad my wife is beginning to take more and more of that!

As a codeveloper of a different game, as well as a fan of over 100 adult VNs in development, I can attest to both sides of the coin:
As a "player", I want it all ASAP.
As a "developer", I know that for every 3 minutes of game time, most developers spend 3-5 DAYS working on getting it just right.
As a "player", I know the frustration of seeing updates that take a long time and/or contain very little actual content.
As a "developer", I know that some of us have tons of things to do - outside the world of game development.
It's like a film project. We love the finished movie, but - like some adaptations or sequels to awesome stuff we're fans of - while some movies can be written, script approved, cast, filmed, and edited for release within year, 75% of all films released this year have been in development for over 10 years. That's 2 hours of content (on average) taking 10 years to get finished.

So patience is key, even in this world of "gotta get it all, gotta have it right now" impatience.

You are so right and thank you for that btw. I was really really upset with myself for taking so long, sometimes a day or more to get one scene right. as scenes that take seemingly forever to get right. That other devs are struggling with the same thing. It can be very disheartening when the development cycle just keeps stretching out in front of you because of things going on in life.

Speaking of things going on, my wife's grandpa just died. So I'm doing a lot of her you know chores and helping her out and spending time with her because she was close to him and she's really hurting.

I just uploaded my scripts for my spell checkers before I left the office. I'm driving home now so once I get home I'll send the links out and at least that step can get done.

 

[pregame]

just played game. It has tremendous potential. The renders are good and actually look like loli. Cant wait to see where he goes with this. One suggestion is if daughter is going to pee and masturbate while he is taking a shower, open her legs so we can see the action. Hope there is watersports, beastality, as well as other sex scenes. They would seem to fit. Hope dads best friend and partner also gets involved in the action since they share so much. Maybe latter his friends prepubescent daughters can also get involved in the action.

We're working on the next version of our game (see my signature) and one event I wrote ended up being literally 30 pages of dialog... with descriptions...

I started rendering 18 days ago.

I cut it off on page 18 and finished it... yesterday. 100 images, 35 animations.
Sometimes we devs get downhearted, depressed, unmotivated, lose focus, and just don't feel like doing it for a while.
But it's done... now to move on to the 40 other events for this next update... let's hope I can speed up.

I'll never write anything with ntr. Beast? Definitely, although not this game. Watersports I haven't decided yet. Maybe we'll poll it. That one is fun, but it's personally a VERY specific circumstance where it's hot for us.

You gave me an idea on how I can change my planning and production processes.

Also, new game? Thank you very much
