Hey, I live in Brazil, and the pronunciation of "Keith" here is exactly the same as "Kate" (K-A-T-E) in english, you know? So, it's possible to find girls with both names here, but Keith is more common because of the pronunciation.
That's why I got confused! And it's also why I already apologized for the mix-up in a previous post.
In the next update, I've already renamed her to Kate (K-A-T-E) to avoid any more confusion. lol
Ahhhh Brazil, so Portuguese? Damn, I had no idea.
Well soz for yelling about it then :P My bad.
Not sure how you get Kate from Keith, but I guess if your language pronounces the E in Keith, more like the Japanese A sound E sometimes makes, and the H is silent... hmmm... I guess that might be it. The Kei being pronounced like the Japanes kei, as Kei Car.... with a T on the end, but actually a Th, with a silent h, yeah?
HA! That would F with anglophones SO MUCH bwhahahahahahahahha. I am middle aged Aussie bloke from outback Aus, and when I see the name Keith, it basically makes me think of leathery old bloke in overalls covered in grease wearing a bright orange toweling bucket hat and 40 year old Seiko watch with a long, oil stained rag poking out one pocket, and pouch of White Ox tobacco peeking out the other.
Not some voluptuous flirtatious goddess lol bawhahahaha. Thanks for indulging my fascination.
No worries at all, brother! I really appreciate the comment, even if you sounded a bit angry before. And yes, Portuguese! Here, we really don't pronounce the "H" at the end like in english, so it sounds identical with "Kate".
I know I should have paid more attention to that detail, but I honestly didn't even notice it during development. There are so many details to manage that sometimes, a few slip by unnoticed.
The important thing is that, over time, I'll keep getting more feedback from you all and keep improving whatever needs to be improved. That's what this process is all about.
And that description of an Australian "Keith" is absolutely hilarious, by the way! Definitely not the vibe I was going for with her, haha.
You are going gods work!!!! I know it is early days, and perhaps you are new to this too maybe? But... so far, it AMAZING visually.
I just hope you make the A part in AVN, the Adult parts, match the quality of the rest of the game. I know we got a taste with Asian girl at the end of this one, it was good.. but it was in a flashback arc, and normally those at little shorter and little less mutliphase, and well staged and blocked... so I am already sure that content will be great in the game... but just thought to mention it.
TBH, as visually stunning as this game is, it is not alone in that... there are certainly a few out there on par or close.... the biggest let down in SOME, is the actual Adult content. It is not a lush, visually, as well staged either, as the rest of the game in some cases. I get for those people, often, they really just want to tell a story, and narrative focused, with Adult content just a passing element to flesh out relationships ... but when treated like that in very visually beautiful, well done, games, with great ambience, lighting, rendering, etc, and solid story... it becomes MASSIVELY jarring and immersion breaking when the Adult scenes look something shot early VHS camera, in early 80s carpet walled basement, by amateurs.
Since you are just starting this one, just wanted to share that, as food for thought, so could avoid that pitfall. This looks awesome, and if the story holds up, and is good as it seems, and the visuals stay this strong, then falling in to that trap of lrss effort and import on Adult content that matches the rest of the game, will likely ensure this one eventually gets seen as one of the BEST.
Yeah, even just from what have so far, it is BEAUTIFUL, and the story engaging. It deserves all other elements of the gameplay to match.
You're right, I'm completely new to this world. I actually started studying Python and Ren'Py just to make this game, and I've been using all my free time lately to improve it.
Episode 1 consists of flashbacks, but I can assure you there will be more NSFW scenes. As for their quality, I will do my absolute best with the animations. In the future, if it becomes possible, I want to hire voice actors to make the scenes even better. I think it's just a matter of time.
Thanks again for the kind words. I can guarantee that the new update will have a much smoother flow and better quality-of-life features than this version.
