Ren'Py Completed Tropicali [v1.0.0] [Story Anon]

[billyjoebobmartin]

To be fair, Fernando doesn't seem to truly care about most of the other heroines, deep down. His real, instinctual, feelings were revealed in the Gloria Bath scene.

that's fair. supposing he meant it. honestly that point had me convinced MC is more socopathic and possibly a pathological liar. do note i never said MC is a good person. just that i wanted a route to be a good lover/husband AND a crime boss. *shrug*

but anyways that scene also makes me think this ending with only the single scene in the epilogue no less, no impreg, and ambiguity to the blood relation with gloria was a middle finger from storyanon to us players.

For some context - game is set in same universe as OoT 7 years after. In that universe for most women it's not normal to get pregnant from normal sex. I'm not sure if that's explained in Tropicali (I know it is at least implied many times) but it is explained in OoT.

well shit. guess boss bitch mio's never getting a kid then unless she takes the pill.

Petition them to split the tags then, one for impregnation one for pregnancy.
The current definition they use puts both under the one tag

Dude.....stop being so smug and throw around the definition of tags F95 implemented.
I know and already did. Several times.

I don't even need to petition it anymore since the tags are already seperated on their spreadsheet for years now but the new tag system is not coming for whatever reason. It is a mammoth of a task apparently.

Then again I sincerely doubt Story Anon is unaware of the perception of seperation for impregnation only and actual pregnancy content. A short note of what people can actually expect, especially on a porn/fetish forum would have taken no time and would have circumvented the issue for people like me who are looking for games with actual pregnancy content.

Or like do it how 99% of other devs are doing it and show pregnant belly CGs only at the end of a game. A short timeskip epilogue.

I never would have said anything but we haven't got even that.

What exactly is rushed about it? It was always supposed to be short game, a small side project. It actually grew in scope compared to what it was originally.

Buildup after buildup, until the most recent update, that should have been a middle point of rising action, was already the end. Since it outgrew being a short side project, i find this an issue.
Multiple games in same universe will probably take care of this problem, but this is an example of how not to finish a project in my humble opinion. Still lots better than abandoning though.

You realise this is just the end to the first of the planned trilogy right?
The game needs to end because the "Management" part of the story has ended, and whatever comes next would presumably be signifigantly different gameplay wise.

Good game but ending was mid af

Right, yeah i said multiple games in same universe. Still it ended something too quickly and crunched too much (half-baked?) content into one update, not leaving time for the fruit to be bared. It just leaves a void if you do look at it as a single product, weird feeling to me. Its not at all a good finish for a project, however you look at it.

F95's official definition is anyone who considers themselves family, even if they're not blood related.
Most of the tags have some ambiguity.

You sure u got the right ending? how much more juicier do u want lol

Last one and then I piss off from this thread.

Out of Touch is a game with a comically large story to tell in which the porn is more of an afterthought.
People like an engaging story... but people also like porn....especially on a porn forum. Since OuT has amazing models and art direction people wanted more sex scenes...which are not coming in the amount people want to since OuT is not that kinda game.

This is fine. Patreon is making 4K+ monthly so people really love the way OuT is presented.

So the dev decided to make Tropicali in which the porn aspect is way more present in tandem to a story and management sim with pregnancy content to boot? . Not gonna lie that sounded way more interesting to me than dry reading the colossal epic with dick in hand that is Out of Touch and waiting for some action.

So yeah. I am not the audience for Out of Touch but I guess I would be the audience for Tropicali.

Well, sucks to be me there is no pregnancy content but I ranted about this already.
But then writing downer endings in Tropicali for people who are pursuing the porn in a porn game is a weird move. What is the dev trying to tell us?

Porn is bad and destroy lifes? How dare we going for the porn options.
Is the dev calling us out with the game for all the times people criticised OuT for the lack of sex scenes?

I don't mind bad endings or endings that let you think about certain things...but not as the single main ending you can achieve if you go for the sex scenes.

I understand that Tropicali was going for some fundamental different tones than OuT but...bottom line is I don't want to feel all doom and gloom and even depressed after playing a porn game. Life is shit enough.

You showed us what can happen. Now give the player the chance to go back and choose a different approach to let it all end on a more happy note while still pursuing the sex scenes. Having to pick the no porn options in a porn game can't be the solution.

Maybe I don't get the big picture and I wasn't the audience for Tropicali as well but then I guess I will never be the audience for games from Story Anon.
I can picture the dev chuckling at posts like this and thinking "these reactions are exactly the ones I was going for with the ending of Tropicali". I mean yeah, if so then mission accomplished but as a player it's pretty unsatisfactory.

OuT = massive project with little porn but happy notions or Tropicali = smaller project with more porn but evil and depressing notions.
I don't think I want a sequel to Tropicali if this is their style going forward for games with porn content as the driving factor.

I can agree, I prefer my harem games with happy endings (who knew?) but hey, apparently there will be another 2 games coming? So maybe there's a chance for happier endings next.

Colors looks a bit too bright. Of course, I haven't played it yet. Just that the pics on the first page look a bit to bright.

Aye, wasn't this Tropicali planned as a demo to a bigger game?

 

[Simpgor]

it was obvious that there wasnt going to be a "happy ending" but the ending made most of the characters either seem extremely dumb (cant be fixed in sequels), their stories feel pointless (even within a porn game; could maybe be fixed in "sequels"), and make the game/protag feel like a jumble of things that clashes with both the idea of this game as a "gooner game" or as commentary on why people play porn games (or by extension do literally anything that gives us pleasure).

Putting this at top instead of bottom: I've loved storyanon since the update dropped when Vicki first wore a death grips shirt but between the vibe/overall feel of tropicali and the direction OOT went (losing my saves didnt help) I feel like ive seen the ceiling of their game making ability, still wish the dude the best, just seeing their "honest?" rants in some of the reacps for OOT make them more memorable than hundreds of other games on this site

Spoiler: when will storyanon refrence the asexuals reading his works :(

Damn I screwed up in the last update and now the game is unwinnable for me, Gonna have to start all over to get in the endgame

 

[fynexfif]

Bruh, I just played demo version and spent my 3 hours playing it, then realised there was full version available, I never hated myself this much.

 

[GamingSavant]

that's fair. supposing he meant it. honestly that point had me convinced MC is more socopathic and possibly a pathological liar. do note i never said MC is a good person. just that i wanted a route to be a good lover/husband AND a crime boss. *shrug*

but anyways that scene also makes me think this ending with only the single scene in the epilogue no less, no impreg, and ambiguity to the blood relation with gloria was a middle finger from storyanon to us players.



well shit. guess boss bitch mio's never getting a kid then unless she takes the pill.

Oh, Fernando meant every word he said to Gloria in that bathtub, even though it surprises even him at how much he would go full Jaime Lannister, he knew he was telling the truth. He's an awful person who tries not to be awful, but he is his father's son. Just like Gloria is her mother's daughter, and finds Fernando's willingness to do horrible actions for her extremely erotic.

Tropicali WAS the game. Demo was for Tropicali until it is finished. Now that it's finished it's a final game. Original demo was supposed to have ~40% of the final game content but I think it even grew in scope somewhat and I'm pretty sure final version includes some stuff that wasn't originally planned. But it is finished now.

What do you mean doesn't support fan translations? Game has its own scripting language and all scripts are in the open. There are literally 3 fan translations (1 complete and 2 partial because game is too big so most people give up before finishing translation). That has nothing to do with unity and more to do with translator skills or how game is implemented. Most people wouldn't even realize that game is made with Unity without looking into internals.

I mean something like a universal translation, without the need to know how to program or understand scripts. For example, I can translate Ren'Py and RPGM games that are in English into my language (Portuguese) using only an Android phone. I use a website, an online APK translator, a text editor, and a file explorer to replace the original .rpyc files with the translated ones.

I don't think this method works for Unity games, especially when trying to translate games from this engine for Android—it must be almost impossible. If there were a way to create a website where fans, even on Android, could contribute, like "innocent witches" I would be willing to help.

It has nothing to do with Unity. Unity code is just compiled into IL byte code which is then run by JIT compiler on player machine or when using il2cpp runtime IL is converted to C++ code which is then compiled into native code. Ren'Py games are just written in interpreted language (an extension of Python language) but it's also barely even an engine. OoT doesn't have game scripts hardcoded, we made our own scripting language and all scripts are written in that language and they are in plain text files in SCRIPTS~ folder. That folder is bundled in Android version in textfiles bundle but the code for loading scripts is shared between desktop and android versions, so if you put SCRIPTS~ folder next to Assets folder in the public game folder then OoT runtime will load scripts from there instead, you will just have to manually update that folder from desktop version, since android game installers only update bundled content and raw script folder has higher priority when loading scripts.

You must be registered to see the links

for example latest scripts (but it still requires full game to be installed to run). As you can see it's plain text files.
