Read between the lines. This project is basically discontinued.
Given everything we know about this project and it's history, I think we can safely say it won't continue. There hasn't been an update in a very long time, add to that the project's funding has all but dried up, and the recent statement by it's developer?
None of this translates into anything but the obvious answer, even if the dev is unwilling to officially state the the project is over.
It's sad though.
The game has a wealth of potential! It's a shame well never see it.
I agree with you. Having lived a bit, I'm aware that people can indeed be very complicated even when things seem different initially, but the beauty of experience is knowing when to avoid getting caught up in all their personal drama, be they close friend or romantic partner, because you can see where it will most likely lead. If Matt requires this much work to land, keeping him would be another animal altogether.
No thanks!
I think Ren is better served looking elsewhere for romance. Matt is hot, sure, but nobody is THAT hot!
Also, I did add a spoiler notation at the top of my previous post.
Possible spoilers ahead
Matt.
I think I'm through with him. All he seems to do is brood, moan, and or complain about this or that. This is in addition to keeping secrets from a lifelong friend, being very quick to judge, and worst of all, being totally and completely oblivious to Ren being in love with him. I thought he might begin to act differently after Ren admitted he's in love with him, but nothing changed at all. Now, he's even more overprotective than before, which is the gateway to being a control freak.
I think I'll give Diego, Harry, and Joel a shot. Matt requires to much work and Ren doesn't have that kind of time or patience.
Aside from that, I'm very much enjoying the game!
Click the book at the bottom of your screen and look at the relation log. it will tell you everything you need to do for every heart on all characters. If you missed certain steps, you'll need to go back before you missed your chance or, restart.
Of course there is the ultimate way of cheating, that being downloading the Universal Ren'Py Mod. This allows full access to all games made with this engine. You can manipulate practically everything! Be careful though. If you don't know what you're doing, you may screw things up and you'll have to start from scratch.
Have fun!
You can get 5 hearts with that big hunky ginger! There's much more of him after you have 3 hearts. I especially enjoy the love triangle, meaning if you're both in love with Logan and Bernard. Bernie is so adorable and accommodating, while Logan tends to be much more jealous and possessive. I love the dynamic of it all. Personally, I can't have just one, I MUST have them both! They'll just have to learn to live with it. LOL
Great news all around! I'm VERY MUCH looking forward to what's ahead! Releasing the game on Steam is a fantastic idea! It will greatly improve the reach and popularity of the game, which will only serve to grow the game that much more. I'm really looking forward to more story as I'm deeply invested after playing through the game multiple times.
I must commend you on an interesting game that has a great deal of promise. However, I feel I must let this title go until it's more complete.
After achieving the Matt victory in both matches, without any special assists, I felt a sense of excitement to finally continue the story, only to be met with a very abrupt and anticlimactic end. I won't spoil what happens but I was hoping for more story, which is why I subbed on Patreon in the first place.
I understand this, like many other similar games of this type are works in progress and there is still more to come. Even with that being the case, it's better for me to continue this adventure further down the line or closer to it's completion.
It's not your fault really. I should have measured my expectations.
I wish you the very best of luck with this project!
That was very nice of you to respond to my message, and so quickly too! It's much appreciated! Despite hitting the wall, which for me is that fight minigame, I am, or rather was, enjoying the story and it's characters. The game has plenty of potential to be truly great!
I'll keep at it and see what happens.
Thanks again!
I'm having trouble getting past the fight minigame. It seems more or less like plenty of guessing or I haven't caught on to how it works exactly. I subbed at the highest tier to get the story after the fight, but since I can't seem to get past it, and a victory is necessary to get beyond that stage, I'm stuck!
I'll give it a few more tries but if I'm unsuccessful, it might be better to just drop it an move along.
WOW!! That was extremely HOT and INTENSE!!! I can't wait until the full version gets released! I couldn't blame Lin for what he did. That guy was STUNNING!! On top of that, his lover is incapable? A situation like that calls for either an open arrangement or Gu realizing that he is actually a bottom who tried to be a top, failing miserably. There are worse things!
Maybe Gu and Lin can move Lu in and share him???
That would work for me.
I wrote a rather pointed message about the game a few days ago. I was very disappointed that the story abruptly ends without any resolutions. I must say, the game seem to be heading somewhere and had very interesting characters and concepts. It's a terrible shame the author decided to completely abandon the game without fully realizing the story or characters.
Should you find yourself at a different place in your life, maybe you'll decide to resume development on the game? It would be nice to return to this world and it's characters.
1 plus 1 will always and forever equal 2 no matter the opinion or circumstance.
Somethings really aren't that complicated.
Just because a person wants to believe something, that doesn't make it true. With basic common sense, which is extremely rare these days, and simple logic, you can figure most things out.
Of course, plenty of folks will argue and fight to convince themselves that the hand they are holding in front of their face isn't actually there.
But,
Is that hand still there?
Of course it is, and it never left. They just chose not to see it.
It really is just that simple.
Sexuality is only complicated for people who are unwilling to be honest with themselves.
Look. I can identify as Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farms all day until I'm purple and fuchsia, it doesn't mean I actually am Rebecca, nor will I ever be.
You get the point?
A man who calls himself straight because he has a wife or a girlfriend, yet the overwhelming majority of his sexual partners are men, well, he can identify as straight until he also turns purple and fuchsia. However, the math doesn't quite add up.
It's really not that complicated.
I can only speak for myself.
I don't find listening to a man wrestling with his sexual identity even slightly desirable. The very fact that they need to "announce" that they are straight would kill it before I even got started. I don't have that kind of patience.
You're original post was questioning why this idea hasn't been represented in Lust Odyssey.
Why do you think it isn't here?
I agree completely.
Personally, I don't find anything even remotely interesting, let alone erotic, in a man who must aggressively and repeatedly announce that they are straight, while having frequent and ongoing sex with other men, under the guise that it's due to a lack of interest from their lady friends. If that's the case, why can't they find other lady friends?
Yeah.
For me, that isn't fantasy, it's drama and if it were to become a theme in this story, that would be my que to find another story.
I guess we all see things differently. I got quite a bit of lust and sex from that game. For me, the story is what brings everything together. Without that, it would be just your typical sex game. Speaking of sex, my guy gets loads and loads of it and I've never thought of him as being evil in anyway. In fact, he is the polar opposite. A paragon more or less! Also. I never got the impression in any way that sex or lust is implied as evil in that game. It's merely a tool that can be used as either a weapon or a means of seduction with romantic intentions. Either way, it's great fun! An interesting story that involves sex, adventure, romance, and mystery! It keeps me very entertained! The only problem I have is trying to find other games that are of the same quality. That's what lead me to Lust Odyssey.
Oh? That's interesting. It probably was something the developer missed. I'm very deep into the story, to the point of hitting multiple WIP blocks. I'm very eager to continue the Magic University, King Edward, and so much more! I never would have thought I'd find an actual GAME with a STORY here or in Lustful Desires. At first glance I thought they were just horny shorts with a bit of story tacked on. I'm VERY HAPPY to have been wrong! Bound By Night is also very good!
