Question: Do you know another VN that does this?
Honest question. I'm just trying to find out if there are other visual novels out there doing something similar to what I'm doing. I personally haven't seen any, but I've only played maybe 100 out of 100,000 of them so, maybe one of you have seen something out there. To give you an idea of what I mean...
This is how your stats affect your gameplay. Besides obviously unlocking or locking scenes based on stat levels, there’s a lot of times you won’t even know your stats have affected something you just said to another character. For example:
menu:
"Say something flirty":
if corruption < 20:
"Uhh... I like your... hands?" # Low corruption
elif (Code for If not or Else), corruption < 50:
"You look like you’d taste good in the morning." # Med
else:
"Wanna see if I can deepthroat this corn dog?" # High
So when you choose an option like “Say something flirty, she runs a stat check to see what levels you’re at, and depending on your levels she’ll say something lame, or OVERLY sexualized…
And this is part of the reason I needed a huge code rewrite. Because these dialogue choice branches were getting REALLY long, code-wise. And I needed to find a better way to handle them. And I did. So now I’m just rewriting it. And honestly it’s fun because the possibilities here are so endless.

I’ve played a lot and I can’t really say dialogue has really changed. I know TwoSides has stats where if you’re not straight enough or gay enough or have love high enough certain scenes won’t pop.
Excellent man! This is great news! Like I said, I've never seen anything like it before either. Anything I can do to set my game apart from the rest of the pack... :)
