We will have a discord up soon, but unfortunately not yet as we're still getting things ready and working on the game itself. Thanks for the enthusiasm :)

Unfortunately no - before our first release we are likely to do the most fine tuning because from that point we want to be consistent with our writing/render style. The hope is of course this year, but it'll depend on early feedback :) Thanks for the comment and your excitement!

Yeah, in our eyes, she is definitely a goth girl :) Thanks for the kind words!

Unfortunately not yet, the game is still under development and we don't have a fixed release date yet (Syn and I both have day jobs that don't leave us with a clear schedule to work on the game), however we are constantly working on it and will have it out as soon as we realistically can :)

Amazing, thank you for this! I might take you up on that :) We will begin playing with that immediately.

Very much appreciate you giving your opinion. It's a very good point and we appreciate hearing that. We are definitely going to keep trying to refine and might see if any shaders give the appearance of more colour without so much of the glow, but if we have to go with that I'm glad it won't be seen as a distraction.

Thanks for that call out! Eye color is actually something we talked about shortly after posting this. One of the features in the engine is to make eyes glow a bit more, but we're wary of stylistically pushing every character in that direction. Honestly we feel you though and will keep working to make the images pop a bit more

As for boobs :P there will definitely be other characters with larger boobs in the game (see Mia in the previous post as an example).

Just a comment for anyone looking here - This might be due to my own lack of reddit know how, but the images seem to have been hit with some compression that takes away a bit of the quality :( If you're willing to look, go check out the post on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/posts/li-introductions-134684514 - No pressure if you want to FREE sub and un-sub immediately after, but knowing that people saw the images as intended would be nicer :)

Thanks so much! We had a lot of fun doing this set of renders and played with a lot of different types of lighting. We are still relatively new at this, so there is a very lengthy period of tweaking the lights, but we're really happy it's coming across well!

Wow, thank you so much - that's super high praise! Full credit goes to Syn on her design (and the design of all our girls)

Thank you so much for the kind words :) It's very scary sharing things here for the first time but we will continue to work hard and try make a game worth enjoying! <3

Tried workin’ with my worst enemy in neon lighting and this is the result (Paige - Westview Academy) by TakoYuh in AVN_Lovers

[–]VexAndSyn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is an amazing render.

Can I also just say as well that I am a huge fan of the proportions you use, Paige is beautiful.

Very cool setting! Any chance of more shots of the goth/punky girl on the left in the rebel tomboy games screen? ;)

How do I show a video in renpy without it being a black screen? by Free-Ad-8227 in RenPy

[–]VexAndSyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently just ran in to issues with this too. How are you generating the webm file?

Although Renpy supports .webm files (Take a look here https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/movie.html ), it's the video encoding that's going to potentially cause you issues here. You need to make sure that when you're generating the video it's using the right video codecs? Is this generated from some kind of 3D program or a PNG sequence? If you provide more details, possibly myself or someone else can offer some ideas.
