Origin Story [v0.5.0] By JDOR

JDOR Games released a new game called Origin Story and the version is 0.5.0. The game’s story is about Taking place twenty years after the Metagen-92 virus – aka the “Superflu” – has swept the world and rendered many of its adult population superpowered or mutated, Origin Story follows MC (name customizable), a seemingly normal nineteen-year-old struggling with his social status and his virginity, who is shunned by his peers due to his ability not yet manifesting. After the death of his parents when he was just a baby, he was raised by their close friend Parker Samson, an influential and beautiful woman who is now the co-owner of the lead organization behind Metagen research and development of the Metagen Vaccine.
When MC is targeted and violently attacked for reasons unknown to him, The Sisterhood – a government-backed team of celebrity superheroines and sex icons – comes to his aid. While under their care, his ability manifests and MC finds himself juggling his school life with an ability he must keep secret, his family, a blossoming relationship with his best friend and girl-next-door Evelyn and his involvement with The Sisterhood. MC soon finds himself on the path to determine whether this is the origin story of a hero, or a villain.

Developer Notes:

I am a very new developer, and just one guy, with no experience in either Ren’Py or Daz until roughly a year before work on Origin Story began. I spent much of that year learning both, and my skills have improved significantly, but I’m certainly not up there with the big boys of AVNs yet. So as much as I would like it to be, Origin Story will not be an all singing and dancing technical marvel with complex mechanics, GUIs and affection systems. It will instead be a somewhat linear story but for some exceptions and alternate paths.
As a new developer, and one who has already written twenty chapters of this, I wanted to address some concerns or criticisms players may have about my AVN or upcoming content in advance.
So here we go…
Planned Tags for future chapters
BDSM, Footjob, Harem, Female domination, Multiple penetration.
Kinetic Novel/Lack of player choice
If basing your option on the first few chapters, you’d be forgiven for thinking Origin Story is a kinetic novel because of the small number of choices the player can make. I promise you, it isn’t, but it will take some time for this to be clear. For reasons I cannot explain without spoiling the whole plot, the very nature of the story requires the MC to be forced through certain events and interactions with characters.
In the earlier chapters of the game, there is some smaller choices which will result in a few alternate scenes depending on the choice made. However, significant choices will start to occur more in the future. This will take some time so please stick with it.
Forced Love Interests
Again, I cannot explain why without spoiling the plot, but the MC will be forced to have some sexual interaction with one particular character (or maybe two, depending on a choice). However, once the MC has had their moment with this character(s), all interactions with them in the future will be optional. All other love interests will be entirely optional.
Animation
This may be a dealbreaker for some, but it is what it is. There are currently no animated scenes (well… maybe one and you’ll see exactly why). I have tried it, and so far, I am useless at it. I have played far too many AVNs that would have been decent but for the terrible animations that ruin the overall quality of the package, and until I am better, I do not want Origin Story to be considered among them.
So, at present, all lewd scenes are comprised of static renders only. I do intend to practice and get better at it, but it is so time consuming I cannot completely focus on this under the limited time I have to work on Origin Story. If this ever gains enough traction and supporters to allow me more time to work on this, then by all means I will be putting a lot of focus on improving my animation skills until its good enough to start retroactively replacing static renders with animation.
Freeroaming
THIS IS NOT A SANDBOX GAME, however, there will be some free roaming sections within the story, however, these will be sporadic and not too involved. The first freeroam section in Chapter 1 contains roughly 45 minutes of backstory and lore, so I highly recommend exploring it fully.
Music & Sound
There is both music and sound effects in the story. Some of them, however, I am considering as placeholders until I find something better, or maybe even commission some in the future. One can dream.
Update/Release Schedule
I’m currently undecided on a release schedule but the tentative plan is every 2-3 months for an update with each being roughly an hour long (without skipping, Chapters 1 & 2 together are clocking in at roughly 3 hours total). I already have Chapter 3 completed and 80% of Chapter 4, and they will come in due course, but the plan is to use the window between releases to get ahead. So, by the time Chapter 3 is released, I’ll have finished Chapter 5… I hope.
Lesbian content
There will be lesbian content, however, it will all be optional and alternate content will take its place if opted out.
Gay/Bi Male content
There is no planned gay or bi (on the male side) content.
Futa/Trans content
There is no planned futa/trans content.
“Fake harem”
As mentioned, the nature of the story requires the MC to interact with a number of different LIs. So by definition this game will be a “harem game”. However, these girls will also have some fun with each other (if girl on girl content is enabled). So, you’d be correct in labelling it a “fake harem” game, and I’m absolutely fine with that because that is the kind of story I want to tell.
Is there any NTR/cuckolding?
I guess I’ll define this more clearly.
No, not anything that actually qualifies as NTR though everyone’s definition of NTR is different. So far there is one extremely brief and entirely optional “voyeurism” scene that takes place during a flashback, where one future love interest may be witnessed in a sexual activity (not penetration) with another other man of a similar age to MC. I included this because I felt it was important to the story for reasons I cannot give away without spoiling too much, but the less spoilery version is that it is ultimately there to give the MC the knowledge that this particular character likes younger men, and therefore he may have a chance with her. In an attempt to negate the inevitable backlash over literally 3 renders, I included a warning right at the start with the option to bail on seeing this scene and have it replaced with an alternative that ultimately serves the same purpose I intended but to a lesser extent (instead she is seen masturbating after receiving attention from said younger man). It seems that still wasn’t enough.
I did intend to use having this option to allow me to include one single render in a future chapter I have written that involves another future LI which is more used for comedic effect than anything, and is never referred to again. But honestly, if it even existing despite being completely optional is enough to ruffle feathers, it’s not worth including.
Anal sex/ass play content
All anal sex content is optional.
There will also be ass-play and rimming (both giving and receiving) content. Again, these will only become available if the player has opted into the anal content in the first place, and then both giving and receiving content are separate optional content because some people might be open to sticking their dick in an ass but not their tongue. Some people might like sticking their tongue in an ass, but not having one in theirs. You get the picture.
BDSM/Femdom Content
There will eventually be some BDSM and femdom content in the game, but both of these will be completely optional (and some will have alternate content if you opt out).
The BDSM will not be particularly hard – there’ll be some cuffs, chains, spanking, paddling, clamps & gags. But no severe pain because that’s not my bag.
The femdom is not particularly hard either – Just some light cuffing, foot worship, face-sitting, edging, degradation, and submission. There is no pegging or anal play on the MC’s part or anything else like that.
Incest Patch
For the love of all that is holy, if one ever becomes available, please do not incest patch Origin Story. It is vital to the plot that the MC is NOT related by blood to Parker and Riley. If you do this you will completely ruin the story, and you won’t know why for a long time. But then finally a chapter release will come, and you will think “shit – well this incest patch makes no sense anymore.”
Even the very basic premise of the game renders an incest patch nonsense. The MC is awaiting the manifestation of his power. Parker does not have powers because she was vaccinated. The MC cannot be expecting powers if he comes from a vaccinated mother. Plus, there is also the mystery of what happened to the MC’s actual parents.
The fact that the MC has been raised by Parker and alongside Riley since he was a baby means they are his mother and sister in everything but blood anyway. If incest is your thing, this needs to be enough.
Why did you do this/that? Why is a character or the MC this way?
This is in response to pretty much 90% of the criticism I have gotten so far, and I know it’s going to get worse with Chapter 2, but I can’t answer them without spoiling the future. And as frustrating as it is, and much as I want to spoil things to nip that criticism in the bud, I would much rather things unfold naturally as they should for the sake of those who enjoy the story without being spoon-fed.
All I can say is, bear in mind that I have written 20 chapters of Origin Story already. I plan incredibly far in advance. I foreshadow… a lot. I make characters do things for reasons that might not be revealed until 15 chapters in. Nearly everything I do is intentional. I don’t make certain characters super horny because “porn game”, I do it for a reason. If you don’t like a particular character because of a certain thing they have done or a way they act, maybe something will happen in the future that will make you thing “oh… I probably shouldn’t have been mad about that”. Maybe sometimes things are not always as they seem.
Please just bear with me and don’t write it off because of one particular character’s behaviour, because you might be wrong about it. Just saying.
