v0.29 Development Plans

I feel like the minority when the idea of children and babies in my adult games are a complete turn off. I would also request having different dialogue when you come inside that didn't refer to her "wanting to get pregnant" because some people like creampies without getting babies and children brought up (again children are not sexy). It could already be after having 3 children IRL the idea of it in my fantasies is even more of a turn off.

Definite yay for more context aware dialogue.

Hi, I have a problem that the people screen cannot show correctly. The people screen edge comes out of the screen.

Shoot. I missed the poll but would've definitely voted for pregnancy. TY everyon!

Yeah I see mixed opinions on here but 100% excited for pregnancy content!

Open Finder, click on "Go" at the top of the screen. Hold down the option key and click on "Library" from the "Go" menu, which will appear when the option key is pressed. Open the RenPy folder there, there should be a folder in RenPy called "LR_2_Proto...". The saves should be there.

that is HYPE

off topic but how do i delete old saves? im on mac

Maybe it's your CPU. I'm running an i9900k and haven't noticed any menu lag.

I mean this is a game where people regularly become engaged the day after they start dating

Been a very long wait, but is appreciated. Thanks. Though I like that you felt you should specify there'd be a way to avoid it-- just in case there are those here who don't know how to avoid pregnancy. Very thoughtful of you to be considerate of their obliviousness.

Mr. L

Yes! Finally.

Yes, as much preg content as possible please. :)

The fun thing is that you use the word render, everything is pre-rendered, so it's just some pixels that can be copied directly to the screen. To "render" a 1080p .jpeg or .gif file should take 1-2ms at most, decompression time is included here. We wouldn't even notice it if it took 10ms.

It's amazing how many people tolerate that menus take seconds to load after just 20-30 minutes of play. The amount of time wasted just waiting for menus to load, means that you could in fact get twice or thrice the amount of progress, since everytime you make a decision, about the same amount of time (if not more) is added in wait time. I love the game to bits, and have been a 5$ supporter for a very long time, but it frustrates me that when I have played about 2 hours, I know that I could've gotten so much more progress if I didn't have to wait for the menus to load. This is across all OS'es and all types of hardware. I have a beast of a machine with a Ryzen 5 3600X with DDR4_3600CL15 RAM and a samsung SSD. Even on hardware such as this the perfomance is bogus. My Lenovo laptop is the same, windows or linux - it's the same. Think about how much more real game-time all of us will get if the menus just load instantly, or at least less than half a second at maximum!

Optimization and Performance Development should still improve in every update. All those updates and events are good, but it takes longer load render/process when I made some progress in-game, like, it usually took 3-10 secs for the next dialogue/choices. Sometimes game will freeze for a few secs then all my delayed taps will come so fast.

Oh, other things... handjob and cowgirl should be requestable... just like a blowjob is... If I say "no keep it on" when she suggests taking something off, she shouldn't request it each time... if I want it off afterwards, I'll manually do it (then reset her wanting to take other things off if needed).

Adding some to Yellowcake's suggestion(s): 1) Evolution/progression *should* really be part of the game for the women as well as the character! a) they should get better at their jobs over time (to a max, of course) b) they should get more 'responsive' to those positions they like/love that they engage in as the protagonist 'learns how' they like it. c) their sex stats (skill at Oral, etc.) should get better as they do it and learn what works, what doesn't, and what totally ROCKS! ... it would *seem* this would not be a lot of code for gradual increases (and decreases) in stats/skills for this and not really affect much of other development. 2) If you are going ahead with the pregnancy route(s), be CERTAIN to add a few things: a) a 'Disable' switch (under options?) for those who REALLY don't want it. b) birth-control traits for serums c) that some of the women are already ON birth control (since a number of women use it for hormone and period regulation). 3) While I like all the work on 'taboo breaks' and dialog, there should be a few tweaks a) When the woman is the initiator, the existing dialog is too 'accusatory' (phrased like the character started it) - while still having something like "We shouldn't..." it should still be from a perspective that SHE wants it and is convincing herself/you rather than you having to come up with bullshit to convince her. b) If the taboo is also one of her preferences, the 'kick' from breaking it (for that time) should be greater. c) taboos should have a 'double break' - one for in private and another for in public.

Some other little things to consider cleaning up: - once you use and toss a condom, more sex is assumed to be condom sex... it should be a new question. - If you don't have a condom, and you shifting from one position to another, it asks again... that one should be assumed to not need a condom again. - going from anal doggy to doggy asks for a condom twice. - when rejecting a position, it would be more realistic to reject after the intro instead of immediately. Like for anal sex, still smack her ass, turn her around, have her bend over, then when she understands you are gonna put it in her butt, she rejects at that point. - It would be really neat to have girls slowly start to like and love something if you do it a bunch. No opinion on drinking cum and you feed it to her over and over again... she could grow to like it (or hate it). Evolution like that would be awesome and I don't think too tough to code. - If you wanted to add in benefits to higher donators, you could add in the ability to create a girl in game (pick hair style, body style, name, maybe even likes loves, etc...), give more introductory money, etc... If you extract that to a data file. While the create a girl would require a UI, you can start without (just put the attributes in a config file or something) and let people experiment. This is different than the $50+ donator in that it would just be for your personal game instead of a global character built in the game with unique dialog, etc... - Multithreading doesn't seem to have fixed the loading issues. You may want to consider loading up all images and pictures and hold them in memory (at least family and employees), so you can just draw them instead of create them? I'm spitballing ideas here, but it seems like transitions of image changes it what slows the game the most, but I haven't done any real analysis to figure that out... regardless, a long startup load time is better than hanging loads while playing. - anal to vag or a2m should have some push back from the girls... most won't want to do it. Something to consider for the future...

I'm all for pregnancy content, but normally it takes months before pregnancy is even noticeable. Which is why LR1 just had it for post-game based on your actions in game.

I mean pregnancy was part of the "best" ending of LR1, so it's not like this is coming out of left field. And we're getting stuff besides the pregnancy anyway. It kind of does seem like Vren couldn't win here - he has a poll, his patreons vote, and then he gets GBH on the earhole for planning to do what was voted for. What was he supposed to do? :)

Can't wait!

haha pregnancy fetish go brrrr

Please, make pregnancy optional! Thank-you.

I think having one specific fetish for a minority and three general options for everybody else was a mistake and the next release might as well be nonexistent for me.
