Well the disclaimer for shooting range safety was dumb. Never was on a shooting range and saw someone wear safety glasses. And as ear protection, everyone shooting had their own protection on hand. And I know what I talk about being a ex soldier and even shot with NATO forces for training reasons. And if you enter a shooting range, the staff will make you aware of the safety meassures. Don't know, why this disclaimer needed to be in there.
Other than this little rant about off topic knowledge, some places where the renders were annoying, at the shooting range with the bullet hulls on the ground for example, why so many renders we have to click through? Completly unnecessary. The slidings with one character shown like 6+ times (not really counted, take it with a grain of salt) from slightly different angles didn't add that much either. It stretches the amount of images, yes, and game play maybe, but in the end people will get annoyed if something like this happens way too much. They will be more likely start skipping to the naughty bits and it would be just wasted time. IMO, it's already wasted time for both sides, there is absolutly no reason to show 10 times the same images with one minor detail changed. At least for something so insignificant like the bullet hulls and the hits the MC got. Besides these critics I got, the story isn't far developed at this point, wouldn't be fair to judge it, when we are just at the second day and have barely anything of knowledge other than the MC being a playboy. The sexy scenes are quite nice looking, the first one of in the hotel was my favorite so far optic wise.
Hope you don't take it personally and I hope to see more in the future. Best of luck.
There are 3 types of choices in the game: picking outfits, choices during action scenes, and choices during lewd scenes.For example, during the lewd scene in V0.3, you can pick between more sensual or dominant foreplay and between handjob and footjob.
Another example is V0.7 (Full) where the lewd scene in the 3rd act is split into 3 routes: Vanilla, Domination & Seduction, and Threesome. Next time you have a lewd scene with this character, she will again have the Vanilla and Domination routes, but since the choices you make are not recorded, you don't need multiple saves. In other words, before every scene, you can decide if you will watch only one of the routes or all of them.
This is not a Kinetic Novel, those games have no choices/interactivity at all. I don't care and it doesn't matter how you feel about this or what you perceive as the requirements for a game to be a visual novel.
Who is this game for?
- You want an actual story aside from characters having casual/meaningless conversations between the sex scenes. You like action/crime movies and want to see a combo between a porn game and such type of story. You want to experience a game that can be both humorous/cool and serious/dark at times.
- You want to put yourself in the shoes of a main character who is a skilled, confident, and dominant high-level government agent. With a dark and complicated past that you will slowly unravel.
- You like a VN with great renders and animations, including frequent and long lewd scenes. Some characters are easy to get... others will require more work.
- You want to seduce many female characters. Each has her own personality, interests, backstory, and style. You can develop a variety of relationships with them, some focused on romance/seduction and others on domination/submission/corruption.
- You can enjoy a game without having to constantly check a walkthrough to get all the scenes. You enjoy being able to pick different outfits for the female characters in some of the scenes. You want regular releases. There is an act release almost every month and a major update every 4 months.
Who is this game NOT for?
- You want to play a weak/mediocre main character.
- You enjoy games with multiple endings and major control over the main narrative. (Agent Horny will have four endings, but they will be selected by a single choice at the end, so if having full control over the narrative and MC throughout the story is your thing, then this is not your game.)
- You prefer games with limited number of female characters, where 90% of the story revolves around the dating aspect.
- You like your visual novel as a wall of text, with paragraphs and paragraphs with each render.
- You think that complaining will change the way I do my game or alter its development direction in any way. Constructive criticism is fine; complaining about stuff already mentioned here is not. There are more than enough adult games, so move on if this one is not your cup of tea.
I am writing this because of the most recent review. If anyone in the future asks for path branching, please refer him to this comment. There are 3 types of choices in the game (picking outfits, choices during action scenes, and during lewd scenes), but no multiple branches that affect the story.
Love it so far, everything looks good, the story's promising, and thank fuck we finally have an MC with a dick in his pants that knows how to do shit and how to make the ladies wet their panties. Please tell me that our sexy boss Olivia is a LI coz that woman is hands down legit waifu material. Love her gorgeous blue eye and... uh, feminine assets.
A harem is good too and would fit this type of MC's personality, but there should also be a few one-woman only paths or endings at least so the players who want a more believable approach could enjoy playing the game too, IF coding won't be a problem for you in the long run, ofc.
Looking forward to the next updates. Keep up the good work !!
"Your renders are too good to be blocked out constantly by the black box." I know right Textbox opacity slider and option to change the size of the text were already requested by a reddit user. It's in the pipeline, could happen for V0.4.
I'm very impressed with your comment. I wish more devs would come out and explain their vision of their game as clearly.
All your points are well stated.

I'm not exactly sure what people mean by LI (love interest). I put a lot of effort into making the characters, so if there is a female in the game, she is to be fucked sooner or later, so to me all of them are love interests, and yes, Olivia too, and her "assets" are indeed nice . The last scene in V0.3 with her was hard but a blast to make.
There are a few characters whose relationship with MC is more romantic. But he will never be just with one so, one girl route is out of the question. There is a reason for that but you will have to wait for the story to unfold to understand why he do things in a certain way.
The textbox opacity slider and option to change the size of the text were already requested by a Reddit user. It's in the pipeline, could happen for V0.4.
There are a couple of mods here on F95 for the text box opacity. I use this one DMZ mod scene.
The textbox opacity slider and option to change the size of the text. Should be an option that RenPy asks if you what to put in the game from the start. It's not a mod if Renpy implements it.
You also can hit 'a', and it will give the option of changing the text size and font type.
This is something devs should point out at the start, like hitting 'h' to hide the text box.
I hope this helps.
I haven't played the game yet. Most of the comments are positive.
Pretty promising start for a first game developer. Game certainly looks good, and the 1 included full sex scene presentation so far was long and varied enough to have solid fap appeal. I also like the attempt at a unique (for one of these games) and clear cut english setting theme story. Which has started off interesting enough to have me following along with it.
If I was to make a few critique notes on my playthrough:
1. As noted by somebody else above I also felt there were times I was making a completely unnecessary amount of extra no-to-slight variation clicks to get through select scenes. Enough so that those moments certainly stood out in a non-usual way in regards to a renpy game.
2. As a general rule of thumb I think a very large amount of people claiming a need for these type of games and their gameplay to offer "meaningful choices" is pretty much a mountain of "I like the idea in unpracticed theory" bullshit. Which routinely misrepresents a molehill of actual truth when you start really picking those claims apart. But that said the one big one I do 100% agree with, at least on visual presentation of the act front, is the option to skip sex scenes with characters you don't want to see for whatever your reasons my be.
3. The MC design goes a little too hard in the paint here on the "perfect MC" presentation. Which ultimately subtracts more from the game's potential immersion on a universal appeal scale then it ends up adding. Especially for a lot of those players out there who you aren't going to find in 1000 different game threads, and making a daily hobby here on a non-paying piracy board of endlessly expressing their obsessively loud need/like for a super "ALPHA" MC in their games.
Which is in no way to say this game and story shouldn't totally built around an alpha MC prototype, mind you. Just that there tends to be degrees there that can cross over into overkill. Almost as if the game starts purposely going out of it's way to break a forth wall and to default speak to the player as if saying "I'm assuming you are playing this game because you a total zero loser in RL with sever insecurity issues. But don't worry little guy, here's a soft pet for your super fragile ego".
It's a too common general disconnect trap that the writing of a lot of these game fall into imo, and basically how I felt as a player with the targeted addition of that whole "5 models" story segment. One that totally didn't need to be thrown in there for anybody to still be feeling like they are playing a bad ass chick magnet agent MC, and in the moment had more of a typical dehumanizing "oh yeah, i'm playing a cheesy fap game" effect on my investment in the story then anything else.

love interest is meaning the main female cast of the game usually the ones who develope a stronger relationship with the mc compared to a side girl where they might hook up with mc but thats the extent no real relationship.

"The textbox opacity slider and option to change the size of the text. Should be an option that RenPy asks if you what to put in the game from the start." I am pretty sure this was not an option when making the project, the "a" does work though, I will check the mod thank you, in general coding the slider should be simple.
