In it's current state the game should be named from riches to rags more than the opposite, but i understand that's only the start of the story.
A nice RPG game with a paper RPG feel to it and nice porn as a reward.
Not overly fond of the fact that you can't take tests you failed anew once you load a saved game.
Had some issues with skipping the story too, sometime the game crashed when i did that.
Thanks for the feedback Chestercat. The original title was Riches to Rags to Riches, but I felt like that was a mouthful :).
I've debated a bit on that point of loading and retaking failed. Part of me likes that you need to try something different, but another part feels like if you are reloading it should be a clean slate. I look forward to hearing more feedback as I'm clearly still on the fence on that feature.
I'm sorry you are experiencing issues, please let me know where you hit those, and I'll fix them straight away.
True, the original title would probably have been a bit long. ^^
I do understand the logic, but if you follow that logic till the end a failed attempt should stay failed. Similar to a paper RPG where one only have one attempt and bear with consequences. Preventing players to attempt the same thing, but allowing them to try something else seems a bit weird to me. I have the same feeling with successfull attemps mind you, some rolls seem to have been saved as successful. Like the decision to ask for Lady Isabelle for a secret passageway. There was apparently no roll once passed, but here you left the possibility to pick an alternative route.
The game only crashed when i skipped the story i did read already, i ended up not doing that anymore and could finish the demo. The amount of times it happened the most was after, the erm... second choice i think, when i chose to use stealth to sneak in the manor after the majordomo said the MC was not on the list. As long as one doesn't start anew a billion time to get to see all the alternative paths/skill gains and/or get all the rolls to be successfull there should not be a problem of stability.
Only giving my opinion boss, maybe wait to see what others think.
I did see a few funny failed attempts, didn't have to try to get them to get some. ;)
Also i didn't go full on fanatic either. Like the MC said he was a virigin and then failed -most of- the sexual actions i did let it pass.
I might be wrong, but i don't think the girl gets to cum even if all the checks are successes anyway.
But things like perception and cunning checks i didn't want him to fail them, given that he supposedly noticed and prevented a conspiracy.
What can I say, it's a good opinion.
BTW, you might want to try being a bit less nice. The MC being a virgin is only one of the possibilities at that point.
Regardless you can definitely make her have a great time, but I made that purposely hard, because well, the MC is a bit of a nooby. I'll add a save point just before that section.
Yeah, i kindda got that feeling when he was talking about bird watching and whatnot. Or when talking to play "matchmaker" between a noble and some cute things to get access to the hunting lodge, rogue skill and all that. I did experiment. But i felt like giving my character -well my version of your character i suppose- a full nice guy start and have him eventually become a scoundrel over time if the situation called for it.
Being betrayed kind of had to be a shock for him to take drastic measures to get revenge. If it's just being beaten at your own game you don't hold a grudge, you move on and start anew elsewhere, you may even come to respect your opponment. I suppose even a full on rogue character could wish to "save" Isabelle though, either because he could have feelings or because he'd think she could be usefull/an ally, she too may be more than a pretty face after all. But yeah, shining knight start for me, by choice. It made more sense to me. But thanks for the tip.
:)
