VN - Ren'Py - Abandoned - A.O.A. Academy [Ch.5 Gold] [TLGGAMES]

Reviewing on the basis of Chapter 2.
Story - 5/5 Great Work. It relates to real life very perfectly. Each Character has been given very realistic story.
Scenes - 5/5 Not Overdid it nor underdid it.
Choices - 4/5 Somewhat disappointed here. There is too much choices that what route we should take, what points you'll get of which girl on which choice, telling this is hard and somewhat annoying. Outcomes are different due to choices.
Walkthrough or Guide - Due to such choices , with every chapter, walkthrough or guide is needed which is not provided.

Overall - 4.8/5 - Indeed Best Game. Let's see if it becomes perfect over upcoming chapters.

My review is really just wow...amazing game. I love it so much I had to support and write a review before I could even finish, I just had to gush

The visuals are absolutely stunning . The characters so far are compelling and the dialogue. The story hits in the feels, the music is well integrated. Everything is exceptionally well done. Seriously, try this.

Right now my only complaint about the game is that it is not finished.

Fingers crossed TrueLoveGames hits the full time support goal.

Holy f... the models/ visual quality is one of the best I have seen so far. Can't tell anything about the animation quality yet because I'm still playing. The storytelling is great, the interactions and emotions feel realistic. There are many choices that will have an impact on the progress (certain actions will give you certain points with the women- there is no "satisfy all" answer, at least not often). What I really disliked were the close-up stripteases. I wasn't able to enjoy the full image of either of the women, beause I was only able to see a certain part of the body per second- like the whole body had been cut in three or more parts. Please add a still image at the end of the scroll! I'm eager to see more of this game!

Excellento and thisall I wanted to say! Keep up the amazing work on this. Love it ...........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

My Ratings:

Art/Renders 4,8/5

The Renders are almost perfect with some slight small imperfections. Nevertheless top notch!!!

Story: 5/5

The story is so intriguing that sometimes you forget the adult content and want to know what happens next and how the relationships will unveil based on the actions and the past of the characters.

Content: 4,5/5



Music: 5/5

Great music/soundtracks on the right moments.

After playing Chapter 2 ill come back and edit this post with actual feedback per category.

nice render, love to see a good looking Asian character that is not edgy looking, looking forward to the next and many more chapters. Fully support the game, glad to see more and more games like this.

There's no such thing as a perfect game, but this masterpiece sure does come really close to it.
Visuals are amazing. Animation quality, background scenery, models of characters, visual effects all excellent.
Ambience and soundtrack fit the scenes very well, adding even more to immersion and atmosphere and setting the appropriate mood for the scene.
Story is a bit simplistic or as some people would say 'cliche' but damn is it done great. Nothing wrong with a simple story if it's done this well. Writing is that good and dialogues believable, that it can carry the story easily. It never gets too cumbersome to read and it evokes an emotion that it should at the given moment. Hell it was so good that i forgot what kind of game i was playing and when the first sex scene came it almost felt out of place, or almost shoehorned in, but then amazing animations kick in and you get no complaints). Characters are amazing, deep, well developed and make you want to care about them and their individual story. The only gripe I have is the almost cartoonishly evil antagonist, but villains rarely done well in any media.
Scenes set up almost cinematographically, it almost feels like they were 'shot' and 'directed'.
Gameplay is simple and fits almost perfectly to my preference. No unnecessary management, grinding, and other timewasting 'routine'. I am very satisfied with this approach for these type of games. Choices you make matter or will matter(at least as far as i can see), and influence your relationships and interactions with characters and their interactions with each other.
Really looking forward for development of this game, thank you whoever is making it)

Impressive play thus far (chp 2). Renders are excellent and subtle animations really add impact. A lot of the eng grammar etc has been fixed which helps not "break" the story. This one feels deep story-wise - seem to be many possible plots / themes going on with I personally enjoy. All and all looks to be shaping up to be great start for TLG.

What I really like about this game is that it's not placed in vacuum.
People see your actions, they think in silence and act accordingly.
Girl will ask about your feelings about others.
There is some jealousy here and there.
This is great and makes this game alive.

Other than that.
Great character design. My favorites are Valery, Vicky, Ashley and Aurora.

These may be the best renders I've seen in an adult game.
Not only how fuckable beautiful these girls are, but also the colorscheme makes it better.

This is a project I really hope to see further develop. Only flaw in this game is the grammar issue.

Cliche story they said well to me i don't mind a cliche story if its good and this game is one of them

• Liking the story
• Liking the characters and the characters development
• Liking the renders, the girls are lovely

GIVE IT A TRY

You can tell this is a labor of love.

The art is among the best you find on this site. It has a genuine story with actual characters you care about. The writing is engaging and interesting. There is many differing paths, which makes the completionist in me get a nervous tick.

I won't get tired of saying this, any game that treats its story not just as a vehicle to deliver porn deserves to stand out among the rest of generic stuff you find here.

Also, no incest. Who'd have thought you can tell an interesting story without your mother or sister being involved?

Try it. Support it. Love it.

awesome game so far, reminds me of BaD in many ways which is a great thing. I both like and dislike the fact that you have to choose your decisions so wisely from the start, definitely ups the replay value and makes it feel more realistic. the renders are great, as are the girls. Ashley isnt my favorite but I can see why many like her. Excited after just 1 chapter, cant wait to continue as the new updates come out. 9.5/10 so far.

This review really should have been posted a while ago, but I have a tendency to leave review till late (bad habit), so apologies.

There have been several adult games with the college background, so I have to admit I was initially skeptical about this game before trying.
The girls & the renders (from the preview images) did look beautiful, yet I had my doubts whether the story and these characters would draw me in.

But when I finished the first 2 chapters, these doubts completely dissipated.

The story is really well written, with everyone with different backgrounds/past coming together, trying to overcome their difficulties on their own (while struggling), or with help of others.

And all the girls are so endearing with their own unique set of personalities, and their interactions with MC just keeps me engaged.

So MC's story is only beginning, but I am very much impressed with this.
Great job to the dev, and I remain hopeful for the future releases.

The Nomenclature is somewhat misleading, what you actually get is a prologue and a chapter 1 of the canon-game. And that is also short.

Player agency is also lacking, in the sense that, in one particular scene in the beginning you have to cause a scene (pun intended), which is ridiculous - I mean, you can refrain 2x, but you can't even explain yourself properly nor do you get to choose not to hit the dude 3rd time.

Also every choice seems exclusive so far, both in conversation and in romance, so I think that the Harem tag is extremely misleading.

The Girls are beautiful for sure, and the renders look good. But I think it's way too ambitious and has done close to nothing so far in regards to pretty much anything (2 girls have a tendency to cry but I really don't care, no proper emotional bond was formed).

THE BIGGEST GRIPE THO (caps intended) - Your dad fu**ing dies and in a few days you're "happy go lucky" - like, really dude? Really? Disappointing.

I was going to give it 3 stars but then I remembered the dad thing.

Hey Dev,

i like your game very much. All of the characters look great and have their own intersting story and background. Each time you have to choose between one of them feels bad because you miss the scenes with the other characters that you also like and feel bad for because of their past.

What you definetly/heavily need to improve on is the grammar. In 90% of the time you use past tense in the dialogue where you have to use the present tense and in the other 10% it is the other way around, which gets very confusing for the player. The player has to correct these mistakes while reading the dialogue for it to make sense and this puts the player out of the "immersion" of the game. I don't want to sound rude, but it gets "annoying", because the game in itself is really good and you want to enjoy it.

I highly recommend a proofreader to make your game even better than it is.
Also "Haa" is not very often used in Englisch as an interjection or expression to show an emotion or sentiment. I don't know if that is due to where you come from, but in english it is problably equivalent with "eh" or "ahh" or something else depending on what you want to express. You can google "english interjections" to find the ones you are trying to express.
Also teachers don't adress students with Ms. or Mr. before their first name but that also may be due to cultural differences from where you are from.

Anyway great game, hope that everything goes well for you and you can continue on your work. Good luck and overall great first episode.
And i also hope that you read this, because i put a lot of effort in it haha

An example of a great cliche story, cliche doesn't always mean bad.

Pros :

• Story

As chapter 1 goes, exceptional. There are lot of similar games out there but this definitely on top of my list. A VN about college life is a hard thing to do and could go south fast. The dev able to make this cliche themed VN interesting with the girls back story for an example. Chapter 1 was a great success, i'm hooked.

• Characters

College is about them pretty girls, am i right ? I really love Jade, Vicky, Sung, and Elizabeth models, they are a beauties. Love the girls personality as well, they are different from one another which makes the game more colorful and unexpected.

• Scenes

Smooth, like it a lot. Doesn't have a lot of scenes, well do keep in mind that this game is still a baby pretty sure that is about to change.

• Didn't encounter any game ruining bug, so thats a plus
• Guess what ? YOUR CHOICES DO MATTER! Proceed with caution

Con(s) :

• The interface could be better, example phone UI, it is sucks we need to close the phone first if we want to check other girls message

Had a great time playing this game, props to the dev because they deserve it. I could not wait for more

To be honest, the 'harem' tag threw me off a bit. i wish the harem path is optional, because i really do want 1 on 1 relationship for the MC.

100% HAVE TO GIVE THIS ONE A RIDE

Nice story, great writing style (realistic and wholesome), seems like there is going to be various interesting personalities to engage with, amazing models, plenty of choices, loving the mystery backgrounds of people, would love to see more Vicky and Josh in the future

Keep up the great work.

Lately most games i chose seem to be this short on content. 2.5GB are not worth.

Gilrs look good, and renders look good, and story is well told is not rushed, but so far there are only small hints.

For a game that weights 2.5GB, it looks like in pre alpha of story development. Its good and all, but again, this gae that should be in full development, uses time and effort in a christmas episode.

ore likely we wont bee seeing the end of this game before 2025.

Although initially it seemed the usual game on the trivial life on university life, the first positive blow comes from the soundtrack and appreciable and engaging, in addition to the graphic sector is of the first level. The story as we have not yet finished the first chapter is well narrated although it follows the classic events of student problems and love affairs with the usual beautiful girls who face the protagonist of the turn, however, are well characterized and contribute to arrich the game and the story of much interest and curiosity, as well as intrigue. A game for now that I judge fresh and fun. The sex scenes are not many for what I seemed to see, however, always seem to have to start at any moment, probably later the game will explode, but I hope until then does not lose the charisma that shows so far.
