All pixels and it's better for it. Too many games are just the same six asset flipped models with slight alterations.
with the same sound effect on 2sec loop for all "scenes". lolAll pixels and it's better for it. Too many games are just the same six asset flipped models with slight alterations.
Agreed. I was reluctant at first because it's typically not executed well enough to be hot, but it's pretty good. I really like games where I can just stumble upon people going at it, and this game is full of it.All pixels and it's better for it.

When you see the previous games you realize the dedication that N_taii has put in the game, the sprite with each game improves a lot which makes me want to see how they will be in the character models in HC4, the story and narrative also improves a lot. That's something I like because many developers get stuck and don't know how to continue with their game or spend months without updating anything.Agreed.

I understand it's just him doing all the work, except for the drawings which are done by a Japanese artist. The rest of the work is just N_taii.Do you have a team or are you doing this solo?
Wel yes but there's also a different side to it.Patreon projects fall apart so often specifically due to the fact that the people making them aren't professional in any sense of the word. Outsourcing is rare, paying people to work on areas that you are weaker in, actually having people proofread... all areas where most projects fall down. N_Taii seems to understand the simple fact that as one person there is only so much he can do, there is only so much he can make, there is only so grand his games can be.
I started solo, but for the last few months I've been relying more and more on pixel artists because I want to add more and more custom sprites into the sex scenes and the game in general as well. Of course, any voice acting and illustrations are also done by other artists.Do you have a team or are you doing this solo?
True, I've been scammed by artists before, but not of huge amounts of money. Believe it or not, I've had more trouble getting some artists and voice actresses to let me pay them for their work. One voice actress did a wonderful work, but she disappeared after finishing the commission, and no matter how many times I try, I can't get her to send me the bill^^ It's been 6 months now. Some artists I pay once per year or so, as per their wish.Wel yes but there's also a different side to it.
I love "Project Wolfenstahl". Also not a team but a single person. He quittet developing games because he outsourced the programming stuff for his game "Deathblight" to someone else. He said he can't do everything alone. So he payed like half or more of the money for the commission and the programmer didn't deliver anything but ran away with all the money.
For average guys creating a porn game, money is a big issue but also missing trust/experience/connections. He shouldn't have given so much money before getting anything in return but even so smaller issues remain.
In HC3, N_Taii sometimes has to wait for the next voice actress, the commissioned pixel art or something else to be delivered. All of that delays the development or at least makes it more challenging.
So i think the main point is overestimating what they can do alone. I can fully understand if someone wants to work on his game alone, even if his/her game has so much more potential the more people would work on it.
Yep, solo game-making is all about compromises. We can't all be making the next Witcher 3 game^^ I'd argue that the "not much variety" is meant that way, as I want players to know what they get into when playing my games. For example, I wouldn't have minded getting another NTRPG that's more or less the same as NTRPG2, and another NTRPG4 after that.For better or worse the Henteria Chronicles series maintains a limited scope. For better it means we get more out of the projects with proper stories, characters, and settings. For worse it means the games are short, don't have much variety, and sometimes suffer from stories and dialogue that needed editing. That said I enjoyed the first two enough to subscribe to N_Taii's patreon, so he has to be doing something right.
For a second there i forgot which Update is supposed to come out this Wednesday so i rushed to your patreon with Lightning speed only to find the free version of the Previous Update. Looks like the Easter bunny only brought depression this year.By the way, Update 4 is out
It's a shame now that i think about it, it would've been 10x times better if it was you who did the moaning while Rose was getting groped in the previous Update.Of course, any voice acting and illustrations are also done by other artists.
a man can dreamIt's a shame now that i think about it, it would've been 10x times better if it was you who did the moaning while Rose was getting groped in the previous Update.![]()
"Hentaria Chronicles - The N_Taii Cut" when?It's a shame now that i think about it, it would've been 10x times better if it was you who did the moaning while Rose was getting groped in the previous Update.![]()
Oh, well, I guess I'll have to train to replace the voice actresse for HC4. I hope you guys don't mind a slightly more masculine voice for the heroines : ) It's going to take some practice to be able to do several voices for each ones though.For a second there i forgot which Update is supposed to come out this Wednesday so i rushed to your patreon with Lightning speed only to find the free version of the Previous Update.

They start automatically as soon as you get to a certain point of the main story. You can refer to the end of the walkthrough for more info on them.How do you start the 2 mini stories that are mentioned in the changelog?
It's already too late in the day.Man excited for the release, hope it doesn't get released too late in the day!
