June 14th Update

Chaotic

No big announcements today, just a few smaller things to note.

First, for those stuck playing Miranda, there is a walkthrough here on this very blog for it : https://www.vdategames.com/wordpress/?p=565

Second, based on Nazim10’s recommendations, a newer version of Molly and Marianna has been added to the members section. The bug fixes aren’t anything big and there’s no new content, but if you like to have the latest version of the games, it’s there now.

Finally, something fun. I decided to do a couple of renders of my upgraded Genesis 3 version of Maddison. Don’t know if I’ll ever end up using her in a game, so the occasional random image seems like a good way to go.

Enjoy!

EDIT : No update this week. Nothing new to say, but I’ll find something for next week.

  1. Glad that I could have been of some help to you! Can’t wait to hear about your new projects ^^

  2. These renders look amazing. Have you considered changing the game engine (maybe RenPy)?

    1. I believe chaotic has addressed this before as to why he doesn’t use Ren’Py. I’m sure he will again. I must admit, for as much as I love chaotic’s games, still being HTML games is the one thing that is a negative for me. Not having a save or rollback feature makes his games more challenging, which can be both good and bad.

      1. Well, his games require a lot of choice taking, and doing a visual novel like thing with a lot of choices can be a pain, and almost not practicle at all.

    2. I have (I’ve actually used ren’py before and am pretty decent at using it).

      The main problem is that over 90% of players play the games online. It seem to be a main appeal of the site. As far as I know, there’s no way to use ren’py in browser.

      1. I’m fine with HTML, but I wonder if there’s a way to clean up the interface a little bit? The nice thing about Ren’py is the ability to display full screen renders, while overlaying the rest of the information on top.

        Actually, I’m thinking someone who’s familiar with Ren’py could simply take any existing vdategame and port it themselves, although it would involve quite a bit of work.

        1. I like HTML since even though walk-thrus for the HTML games are appreciated, if one understands the coding and HTML files, it is relatively easy to figure out how to do something if one has enough time or what is required for something to happen. It also allows for easier spoilers of the particular game since one can just go thru all the images to know what to expect in a particular game. For example, I know in Miranda, there is or it is possible to have threesome and I know in the Academy #1 that nothing happens with the Principal, Bridgette, Didi, Annie, etc..

        2. I think some of it’s personal preference.

          Personally, I don’t really like the way ren’py has the text over the images. If I wanted to, I could actually have full screen images with the dialog written over them in html.

          1. @JIM – once you unpack the rpy files, you can basically do the same thing in terms of peeking into (or altering) the code, in much the same way as HTML, so you don’t lose that “feature” 😉

            @CHAOTIC – true, some people don’t like the UI “clutter” getting in the way of the images. Having said that, most of the better developers do a great job streamlining the interface i.e. you boxes/borders framing text with the right font styles and presentation. I’d love to see context-sensitive UI where overlaid elements only appear when the mouse/cursor is pointed at the important (i.e. center) part of the screen, but disappears towards the edges.

  3. I love Maddison. I would love it if she was in more games. I also think she would look good if she was dressed as the devil with wings and stuff.

  4. Oh my gosh, Maddison looks AMAZING! I hope we get to see her in something eventually.

  5. WOW Maddison looks amazing. OK idea time, A Maddison Big Streak game. Can be short game too. The plot could be that Maddison feel like the magazine needs something daring and risque for the next issue. The player grabs a camera and tells Maddison they should go streaking, and Maddsion keep her high heels on. or that Maddison lost some sort of bet to the player, and has to go on a streak in nothing but her heels. Also Would like a Betsy,April & Violet Big Streak at school as well.

  7. Hello, first of all I want to say I’m a big fan of your work. Now I think there’s a bug in your Betsy game. I’ve been trying to get the foursome ending but when it gets to the cafeteria scene, April doesn’t come over to the table. Other than that everything else seems to be working fine.

    1. Hello

      Are you following the walkthrough? In order to get April arriving during the cafeteria scene, I believe you have to find her crying first then offer to tutor her.

  8. I have molly and marianna multiple times and I am frustrated by only getting the same ending. I would like to know how to get the threesome ending. any clues or a walkthrough would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

  11. Please give me some help with Molly and Marianna. I am frustrated with the smirk the face of Schultz. Is there any info from dsp3000. Thank you.

  13. Nice pics 😀 does anyone have a walkthrough for the sci fi story? Cant seem to get to the orgy or even the pool

  14. Normaly this should stand below the blog entry of June 7th “Miranda for public” – but the comments are closed. 🙁
    I’m surprised that this game has some major bugs despite its age.
    Bug list (at least the major bugs):
    – it’s possible to cheat during the volleyball match in the morning
    after the conversation part about reading Miranda states that they are there to see the volleyball match
    if the MC says she is right the you can repeat the conversation part about reading
    – it’s possible to cheat during the bar game at the pool bar
    take all ingredients and you are successful – but there is a bug 🙁 you don’t get the Faye point,
    these point is given only if you left out the soda (makes no sense IMHO)
    – you never can reach the real ending 4 “Message in the morning” because of a wrong check after the night event
    the night event requires more than 84 influence points but ending 4 requires less than 80 influence points
    – at the end of ending 2 the endcard for ending 4 is called.
