RPG RPG Maker Loli [あさきゆめみし / Asakiyumemishi] -少女異聞録~白鷺白百合の華麗なる日々- (RJ333022)

This game was mean as a side project intitialy, but the dev keep wanting to add more and more as he did it. But End it ebfore finishing everything he start trying to add because it just took too long.

In the end, it's neither a side project nore a full out game.

In fact, the dev intended for this one, and want to do in the futur is a 1 year project game.

 

[GSherston]

I completely agree, Kozue SJ was the better game. Hell I'd love to see that game remade with this game's artwork....but I'd also love to see some new stuff from this developer. If only they were big enough to outsource that kind of thing.

Could just be me, but I feel a lot of people were underwhelmed with this release. I still love the developer's work and am excited for the next project, but it was definitely a step back in gameplay from the previous title. Artwork and music were awesome though.

I've been lurking on those CIEN posts and certainly a good number of folks were unsatisfied with what we've got in the end, but I don't think some of the people wanting an expansion/append is being realistic. I'd much rather the dev works on a new project and try new ideas.

I think the greatest strength of this dev is that he/she is persistent with what he/she works. However at the same time he/she not very good at managing he/she's own project, hence a lot of ideas being scrapped and time/assets wasted. Guess it's like writing a dissertation/essay all on one's own without any input and supervision. You just dwell on some ideas and adding a bunch of stuff to them only to find out in the end they don't work or else. That's how I feel with the development of Kozue's Strange Journey and this new title.

After inspecting the game, I have seen so much cut content that either he felt he was aiming too far with this, or (most likely) he ran out of budget/time and had to rush it out.
There are several unused maps (almost all main locations from Kozue's Strange Journey are recreated), unused outfits (extra underwear type for Sumire hints at that), there is a cut party member (female version of Kozue's brother), 3 scenes and 9 h-scenes that are not present in the game:
Missing scenes:
1) Kozue's brother transforming/discovering he is now a girl
2) Kozue and the other party members helping him/cheering him up after discovering he' a girl
3) Kozue's brother discovering he has a period/can get pregnant

Missing h-scenes:
1) Sayuri going to hot spring with her dad(?), having sex with him while other visitors observe (according to code comments)
2) Kozue, Hina, Miu Simure and Kozue's brother (in female form supposedly) group orgy/prostitution at Yakuza office
3) getting defeated by a tentacle boss resulting in sex scene with all party members
4) Kozue's brother (in female form supposedly) prostitution
5) Kozue's brother (in female form supposedly) group prostitution with Sayuri
6) Kozue's brother (not sure if male or female form) masturbation scene
7) Sumire and Kozue's brother (male form assumed) sex scene (scene fully coded, missing dialog and probably scene trigger)
8) another scene like #9 (probably for female form) but no graphics included
9) Sumire and Kozue's brother (male form assumed) sex scene (scene fully coded, missing dialog and probably scene trigger, code is 1:1 with #7)

Taking into consideration that and the lack of outfits, I'm inclined to believe the 1-year-of-no-news either caused all this to be removed, or he is outsourcing the artwork to someone else and just couldn't afford it so that stuff got cut.

Regardless, what we do know for sure is that the game is killing it when it comes to popularity on DLSite and definitely sold really well. Considering that he has most of the world re-created and not used, I would honestly love it if he would just decide to go with a template approach - remove the events while keeping the world and mechanics and quickly push out another game based on another party member, or just create a bigger game faster.

I'd love more from this creator. I only am disappointed because I was so thoroughly impressed with the third game. The base game template for the most recent title is really solid, i wouldn't mind seeing another side story built on top of it.

Is there any event became unavailable though too many day passed?

No. Take as much time as you like.

 

[GSherston]

First of all, wishing you all a merry Christmas and an early happy new year.
I've been stalking the dev's CIEN page once again and there are some interesting plans:

The dev won't be working on any more update/bug fixes and will be taking a break
The dev is getting new art stuff/equipments and would like to try new artistic things.
The dev is delving into digital manga next year.(I'm not quite sure what digital manga-デジタル漫画 entails in this context, is he/she working on his/her own web comic series? Doing commissions? Or just posting bits and pieces online?)

So I don't think there will be any information about the next project in the forseeable future, which kinda sucks because I was dying for anything about what could possibly be the next project. Alas it seems the dev is probably taking a good break to puruse his/her own artstic endeavor, probably in the form of デジタル漫画, guess we'll see what that is and I hope he/she doesn't spent all the good ideas for possible future games on those.

 

[Mr.Noname]

The dev won't be working on any more update/bug fixes and will be taking a break

Well, there goes the comments of people asking if there would be plans to add more scenes in later updates...

Thinking about it, has this dev ever added content updates on the past games?

 

[GSherston]

That'll be a no and I doubt that will ever change, hence I mentioned in previous posts that people expecting content updates/restore whatever datamined deleted stuff are being unrealistic.(In my experience the circles that add post-release content tend to be the circles that are bigger and have more manpower, like OneOneOne and etc. This dev is just one indvidiual.)

(And please bear with my rant here)

It just kind of irks me that I keep seeing people demanding content update or whatever on CIEN. I am pretty sure the dev had good reasons not including those stuff in the final release, and not just cut content out of spite or malice, as a lot of those comments are suggesting.

Regardless there won't be anything for a while and I sincerely hope this dev doesn't give up making games.

 

[Bryanis]

Well, there the posibility of fan made restoration patch to make avaiable finished but not implemented scene. (like there was for Eris's work with the extra dungeon and ending - although the ending wasn't finished to work with all the switch ).

Meaning fans can work to add what the dev didn't finish, but I doubt even if you do that and offer it to the dev he'll implement it officially. Which is a shame when you see the amount of content nearly finished but without the trigger to see them :/

 

[GSherston]

My problem is that there are always people hounding on the matter of cut/unreleased content ever since Princess Eris.

Over the years I have seen way too much people dwelling on the matter and would never let that go game after game, I get that it really sucks that we could have gotten a few more scenarios/scenes/endings etc from these games, but at the end of the day we don't know what really went down with development and that got a whole bunch stuff cut from the final release. I just think the best I can do as a player and a fan is to respect that artistic vision(or whatever is more pragmatic to the game development situation) of the dev leaving something on the cutting room floor.

Of course if the games from this circle were released with a severe lack of content and quality then I would absolutely join that camp and demand those cut content be restored, but I don't think that is not the case with the past releases. So I don't really get what riled these people up so much they got to keep demanding content be restored since 2015.

I do apologize if I come off stand-offish, and I'm sure most people wanting more stuff from the dev have no ill-intentions. I'm just really irked by some of the less kind comments game after game.

 

[Bryanis]

Aw man. Everyone got the right to their own opinion and as long as you're not trolling, flaming, bashing or stray out attacking others, the only thing that may be wrong is the place you express your opinion (like commenting a translation in the game thread).

I think the problem with the dev, is that he leave to much unfinished content in the released version. When peoples look at the content and see like + 40 % of scene not finished compared to the released content, they feel... maybe wronged ?

Thing with the restoration patch in Eris game, was that it unlocked the extra dungeon. But since the dev hadn't really finished scripting the extra ending, the restoration patch should either have disabled the extra ending or finish scripting it.
Sadly, when you do that you get away from the dev work... so it's extra (modified) content versus original game.
I can found argument for both side, so it's hard to pick one.

The best would be the dev finding some fan(s) to work with. Like, with the done art, he tell what scene he had in mind and how / when it should happen (and the consequence),a nd the fans work it out in an extra patch. Sadly, such partnership aren't likely to happen anytime soon.

Thank you for your insights! I had not realized the unreleased content is actually quite a considerable amount. I suppose I now get why some people are very insistence on the matter.

I do get what you said about modding the game. As doing so inevitably strayed away from whatever the dev had originally intended for those content to be. Therefore even if they are restored it might not have that “authenticity” from the dev.

I think the best case scenario is that the circle expands from one single individual to like two or three people, so the workload can be shared, and development plans/ideas are devised and oversee by members so as to not continuously build on some ideas that eventually get scrapped.

But I doubt that will happen as well, given how mysterious and a loner type this dev is. I also personally really like his/her erotic proclivities in all these games(being mostly prostitution), having other people on board might change that.

 

[coryhouse]

I really hope this isn't the last game from this developer. I feel like he / she is just hitting their stride.

Dev didn't announced anything in that sence. Just said he was done with this game and was intending to settle into a "1 work per year" release rythm. Which would mean smaller game with less content.

 

[Hvvnn]

On working, but don't give any hope since i'm very busy recently.

Up to everyone to inform the dev of any non corrected bug so far (and keep bothering him if he don't correct them ).

 

[GSherston]

Huh, did they ever fix the "gallery" no properly being the "first time"?

Yeah I ran into that too, I've reported that glitch back in Dec last year and it was fix 1.05 upwards.

PS: It was 1.04 upwards!

Up to everyone to inform the dev of any non corrected bug so far (and keep bothering him if he don't correct them ).

I acutally emailed the dev last december about a glitch that when replaying events and choosing the virgin state there is no blood displayed(weird little stuff, I know) and attached my save files. The dev responded pretty politely and fixed it the other day, so it was a pleasant little exchange and made me adore the dev more.
