Grandma's House: College Days
Added 2023-09-12 20:43:01 +0000 UTCI made a little game because I wanted to test out animations, here it is. Seemed fitting to release it today. Can't believe it's been two years already, I couldn't have gotten this far without you guys and I really appreciate you.

This is amazing, everything is really well done and I already want more. I hope it gets to be a full story at some point :)

2023-10-01 03:59:29 +0000 UTCPlayed through it and enjoyed the animations and the game. Hope there will be a Episode 2 somewhere in the future or references in the main game.

2023-09-18 14:07:37 +0000 UTCNice work. Animations are nice but I'm sure they would slow your process .

2023-09-17 15:54:16 +0000 UTCOr you could maybe fold these characters into the main game via flashbacks or have some of them visit What i am trying to get at here is Abby has to be brought back somehow loved her in this game

2023-09-16 15:48:59 +0000 UTCI got a bit too invested in this story, surprised just how short it was. But it was really high quality I love how you use your animations compared to other avn devs, who use the same static image on screen while you scroll through lots or random text, I just wish there was more content for this story but I understand your a busy man and have other projects. I'll keep supporting you because you work is amazing. Keep up the great work.

2023-09-16 12:16:21 +0000 UTCthis story needs an end my sanity demands you finish it lol seriously though i would love to see the rest of this story

2023-09-16 04:23:42 +0000 UTCBruh. Really damn good start on the animations. They're not top tier, but if this is your first go at it, I'd say it's an excellent start. Some AVNs have animations that are just gross, to say the least, and would be better done in stills, but this has a lot of potential. I can see the care and attention in it. Keep practicing. Good job. And of course, the story and characters overall are just amazing as always. I love your stuff. GH is fucking fantastic and to be honest, this little story just really made me want to see what more you could do with something brand new. Props. You rock.

2023-09-15 18:56:50 +0000 UTCis this a 1 off or is it something you are maybe going to develop further?
OneSuperSheardy
2023-09-15 18:38:36 +0000 UTCYeah it's before. This is the start of his 2nd year, he meets Tanya at the start of the 3rd
Moonbox
2023-09-15 15:28:11 +0000 UTCSilly question i know, but this is set before meet Tanya?

2023-09-15 14:23:20 +0000 UTCI really want this side game to continue with or without animations the story is good and has a whole bunch of new characters that i'd love to see grow over time.
Domier
2023-09-15 10:17:01 +0000 UTCenjoyed the story, hopefully we see some of the characters in the main game swell somewhere down the line though
youjelly
2023-09-15 08:55:04 +0000 UTCHope this means maybe we can look forward to animations in the main game! Either way, I enjoyed this too!

2023-09-15 05:02:43 +0000 UTCI like this a lot. Animations aren't perfect, and look a bit mechanical. And repetitive, I guess? (Duh of course they are. It just feels more noticeable here somehow. Maybe it's too many distinct movements that make it easier to notice the pattern too quickly. I'm no expert though) ...BUT they're certainly passable compared to other games. We've just come to expect a lot from you, I think. I'm confident they'd become awesome if you wanted to spend time on it. However, I think where you shine is in the wholesome storytelling and the character models themselves. All of the women here are unique and gorgeous. And I think something most of your followers probably enjoy is the forbidden fruit aspect. All of the LIs here fall into that category for me. Maybe Kayla not as much, but doing it with her while Abby is obviously & shyly listening is taboo enough for me. The solid storytelling makes that so exciting. I guess my point is that if you wanted to go for animations, you totally could. Maybe you're bored with what you've been doing, I dunno. But I certainly don't think they're necessary. You make up for it in the other areas, and the quick dev time is such a huge bonus.

2023-09-14 15:12:28 +0000 UTCI can imagine. The confines of the short loops would definitely seem to stifle creativity.
Lumi
2023-09-13 21:33:35 +0000 UTCYeah I had a lot of trouble with that. It's really hard to find a balance between making them look alive but not awkwardly mechanical
Moonbox
2023-09-13 21:02:56 +0000 UTCNot sure what all the T stuff means but GH is on schedule, next update will be in 2 days
Moonbox
2023-09-13 21:01:39 +0000 UTCI hope you continue that game, too. Just got me excited to see were it goes with Abby and with the Math Prof :D

2023-09-13 18:08:29 +0000 UTCBro that was great. Would love to see more of those girls either in the main game or you continue the collage days with more episodes every so often. Also for first time animation that was very good compared to other developer's first times. Keep up the good work and thanks for making such a awesome game.
Deathgod72
2023-09-13 17:31:04 +0000 UTCLoved the little game. Need more of Abraham. Maybe a threesome with her and the goth chick. Also the teachers are awesome though I don't care much for the Dean/Headmaster.
Maruad
2023-09-13 16:53:49 +0000 UTCThoroughly enjoyed the story and the new characters! Animation-wise I think it was a great first go! As others have mentioned I know they'll improve. In its current state though, I personally would prefer the still images to these animations. I think the animation loops could actually use LESS detail. For instance legs moving in a fit of passion, etc. When in a loop, these make the animation actually LESS realistic. Some of the fun nuanced motions with legs and arms actually detract from an animation when it's a loop.

2023-09-13 15:54:10 +0000 UTCdo we need a patch?

2023-09-13 15:50:29 +0000 UTCdean nelson just wow giant race.......

2023-09-13 15:45:08 +0000 UTCGreat work for a first attempt and like SithLordMethos & Face Crap I would like to see more added to the story line. Thanks for your continued work.
Tom
2023-09-13 14:44:23 +0000 UTCOMG, Now you've gone and done it! :D With an open ending even. I know it said at the end it's complete, but man I would love to see a sequel, and wouldn't care if it didn't have animations. This one was just too great to leave it hanging like this. And despite the comments made by Tslover66, even if they're sensible in their own rights, the animations were still better than most done in other VN's. One thing though where I am not entirely agreeing is the depth-of-field thing. It's valid, but the scene does need to be right for it. In a room the size of an average college dorm, making the background a little blurry feels more unrealistic than it would contribute to the scene. But that's just my opinion.
Face Crap
2023-09-13 12:28:51 +0000 UTCThat would be awesome if the dean comes with their child ππ
Bashiron
2023-09-13 11:15:55 +0000 UTCGreat mini game I can see the hiccups with animations but with your track record I know it will get better. As for the characters shown Kayla, Abraham/Abby, and the dean I would love to see in the main game hell the dean could have had a child with MC n he didn't know till she showed up at his door
SithLordMethos
2023-09-13 09:38:23 +0000 UTCYou wanted feedback. Praise is always good but only objective criticism brings us further. Animation is really hard stuff. For your first time it was not so bad. Note animation: Some of the animations looked like mechanical figures from the fairy tale forest parks. (I THINK U RECONIZED BY YOURSELD TOO) This was mainly due to too many motion paths being set in the loop for head tilts and other things. The striking repetitions of the motion sequences make it look so mechanical and doll-like. I think less deviating movements would be more here to make it appear more fluid. For example, in Abraham's masturbation, no foot would have to move. That's unnatural either way. OKAY: Except during orgasm. :D Fewer motion paths would also allow you to create the animations faster. To make it more varied, it might be good to switch more often between different camera positions (closeup, wide shot...). Once you have set the motion paths you might be able to make more profit out of your done work. (Mayby a moving Cam) It is important to set the focus. This works well with a lot of depth of field. This makes scenes more exciting: unimportant, disturbing structures are blurred. Something I always teach my photographers or 3d artists. Besides a good light set, this is extremely important to create atmosphere. Lighting: Light & shadow are the salt in the soup and with 3D artists a whole own discipline, for which there are specialists. You do everything all by yourself and I take my hat off to that. A general illumination quickly looks like in a canteen with fluorescent tubes. Uncomfortable. Here it would be good to lower the general lighting and put more spots or indirect light (Lichteienfall only through windows). Don't be afraid of dark sinking passages and over-illuminated light edges. They create the necessary atmosphere in every good photo or blockbuster and take us along emotionally. Light moods influence our brain extremely. A wine in the neon light tastes cheap for us, the same wine in the candlelight high-quality. (Scientific study) Sure, this is all a lot of work for you. So you have to decide what is still feasible for you and what is no longer, where you want to improve and invest some time and take the next step. I hope the constructive criticism helps you. Maybe you can take something with you. Your fan. by the way before i forget: THX for the story. Love it.

2023-09-13 04:26:36 +0000 UTCI like the design for Kayla. A nice, thicc goth girl with a friendly demeanor is a personal favorite of mine

2023-09-13 01:56:28 +0000 UTCSeriously if you don't continue this story I'll go mad. At the very least have Abby come for a visit in the main game.
Jesster Gold
2023-09-13 01:14:43 +0000 UTCGlad you enjoyed it. I'm not planning on it but I'm not against making another one eventually.
Moonbox
2023-09-13 00:55:05 +0000 UTCDamn, this was really fun & you did a good job on the animations. It's a shame they'd extend the development time between updates so much, would have loved to see them in the main title. I know you said it was mainly done as a test for animations & such but maybe you could think about doing an episode between parts/seasons (when you need to split it to keep file size down) of Grandma's House? I'd understand if it'd be too much extra work to do, but damn if you haven't got me wanting to see more of these characters lol.

Qwan
2023-09-13 00:19:36 +0000 UTCYea I get that I'd rather still get the 2 a month instead of insane delays for some animations. You did a great job on this tho, for a short story I got sucked in. Would make an amazing side project for random drops here and there
Snedden
2023-09-13 00:16:23 +0000 UTCAppreciate it. One thing I learned from this is that animations take way too long to make. This is about the size of the usual GH update but it took 6 weeks to make instead of 2. That kind of delay just isn't worth it to me. A cameo isn't planned but it's not even close to impossible π
Moonbox
2023-09-12 23:07:40 +0000 UTCYou did a great job here. Can't wait for next parts
JΓΌrgen Kellner
2023-09-12 22:44:50 +0000 UTCDamn MB you did an amazing job on this, I really really enjoyed it. Are you planning on adding animations to GH,? This mini story was great, loved Dean Nelson and hope we see more in the future, maybe a cameo in the main game.... wink wink lol
Snedden
2023-09-12 22:38:11 +0000 UTCNot that I need any special reason, but I'll have a few beers thinking about that. Cheers Moon!

2023-09-12 22:32:22 +0000 UTCmoon, you`re to damm good. now i am invested in that too. and the bad thing is that i wanna see abraham naked now. goddamm perfect characters.

2023-09-12 21:57:47 +0000 UTCDamn this is also solid. Future looks good.
