A Ton of Bears in Beartonne by FatBat ITCH,IO LINK IS UPPP
Hey y’all~! I wanted to announce an idea I’ve had for a Ren’py visual novel I’ve had for quite some time, and figured I’d ask y’all on some feedback of what I got so far! ^^ ALSO TO FIND OUT IF THERE’S ANY SIMILARITES BETWEEN THIS AND EXISITING WORK which is kinda a fear of mine ‘w’

Very much inspired by Extracurricular Activities by DyneWulf/WolfBiteLLC!

The premise is that you’re a 25-ish year old Opossum, average build between fat and muscle, (though this might be changeable both at the start and during a read,) and is a sort of everyman, knows how to fix a sink and switch between hdmi 1/2, that sorta thing.

The opossum moves out of town thanks to your uncle offering a place to stay, you take him up on the offer and set out… getting a job at his restaurant and meeting a few fatty folks along the way.

The age range is 25-ish to 35-ish, (still writing characters, I’ve only got a few solidified) and the whole idea is that, you meet the person, get a job where they work, and your bond with them grows over the course of about a year, skipping between months/significant events.
There’s gonna be different storylines and issues that arise that you and your partner overcome in each playthrough.

I’ve got a few characters conceptualized, from a line cook spider guy, to a stoner sloth, a divorcee dachsund, aswell as a cartoonist orc, (and some more who I’ve yet to really work on!)
They’re all very early on, and may be subject to change! One might notice the over-abundance of combovers…

All art is done by me, as well as writing though this may change also. ^^

I intend on making the characters more weighty, as most of the concept art was done at a time I wasn’t really sure about going all in with the fatty stuff… I’ve since changed my stance. :3

Lemme know your thoughts down below! I was gonna try to get a lil prologue going here soon, complete with placeholder art! As stated before, this project is gonna be done in Ren’Py, and I’ll upload builds to my Itch,io page at the top of this post!

Naturally, the art is all placeholders/rough sketches, I’d upload more finished works if I had them, but I wanna redesign them to be more in line with the weight I like and that others will enjoy. :3

I really like how this sounds!! The character sketches have a lot of charisma, and I love that we are treating adult relationships instead of the common FVN tropes.

I find this idea really interesting and finding a male-focused VN with WG/Fat elements is pretty hard to find by itself so I’d love to support you as best as I can!

THANK YOUU~!!! <3
I appreciate the feedback!

I’m glad to hear the idea is appealing and piques interests, both in premise and the goings-ons~
And I AGREE ITS SO DARN HARD TO FIND!! Hence why I both give credit and very much enjoy extracurricular activities! :3
Obvs I want the story to be accessible to the most people, I think the biggest hurdle and sorta decision I’m trying to make is just what scope we’ll be dealing with in terms of weight, sizes, blob/round fat, musclegut, etc.

Obviously a lot more than extracarric, as, while I do enjoy that story, I certainly don’t wanna be offering much of the same experience, as I feel like that’d be unoriginal.

HOWEVER, I know not everyone likes fat as much as the next- so it might be possible to ignore weight gain all together and stick with a size comparable to that of the concept art above. :3

However
I might just go all in and maybe even have… blob
for a character or two~ Each character will have a base weight and a max of sorts, and as said before, muscle gut for some, more blob/saggy fat, or rounded weight. :3

We needed more men, thank you for this project.
