VN - Ren'Py - Alpha Omega [v0.3.1] [EzyGames]

Hitting that download button was one of the best decisions that I ever made. This game is freaking goooooooooooooooooood. huge s/o to the developer, aka the creator of this masterpiece. Thank you for creating this game.

Played up to 3.1

Not really my cup of tea, but based on reviews, i figured I'd try it out. It's cool that the Protag is different. I'm white, makes no difference to me who I play as as long as the Protag is realistic. This fits that bill. The women are definitely suited for specific types and that's also cool, I feel as if muscular women aren't really represented well in most VN's.

Gotta give the Dev his props in going a different direction than most and it looks like it's a Knock it outta the Park for him. The visuals and renders are really put together nice and I hope that VN's go in this direction in the future. No animations, which for me is a real bummer. I think nowadays in 2024, VN's have adapted to include some kind of motion even if you can't do complex animations. Maybe their next game.

Overall a 4 out of 5, good presentation and representation, but for me, not too appealing story wise and character wise

Reviewing 3.1

Really good. Hot girls, great renders, good characters and story. If you're hear for just non stop sex this won't be for you. It's a slower burn than most games on here but worth it if you like the story and lots of muscle girls. Combat gameplay is pretty decent and fun even if I am bad at it.

Only issue i had was the story loses a little bit of immersion when you get reminded that it's a school and some of the story points seem extreme for that. I'm not entirely sure how they would get away with what they were doing because that wouldn't fly outside of a school setting let alone in one.

Definitely worth a try overall! Excited to see what's going happen from here!

Very nice renders, OK story and some hot women. BUT...come on man, softcore? Really? Just ruined the whole experience and immersion for me unfortunately. And why does it says that it isn't censored when it is? Will come back if it switches to more "normal" mode.

AS OF CHP. 3 - 5/5.
Really looking forward to what comes next!

I rarely go out of my way to review games or artists here, but this one I'll not only do that, but go out of my way to actually support the creator! I'll wrap up this review in the convenient way that other users do for simplicity as I'm not up to write an entire proper review in order to not waste your time, so here we go:

TLDR; PROS AND CONS
+ Characters are great, funny and well written
+ LIs are varied, although not that much in body type so far.
+ Renders are top notch, like out of the usual top notch
+ Themes are absolutely awesome for those that are into it: You'll be in a band, in college, on a sports oriented graduation, learning MMA.
+ The decisions are meaningful and this is not a harem game.
+ The MC is black. I'm pointing this out because I know this is nice/important for some. For me, it doesn't make that much of a difference but it's nice to see it as it's kinda rare in my experience with AVNS
---------------------------------------------//---------------------------------------------
- This is not a harem game. Some people really like to collect/see everything, so you'll need multiple playthroughs for that
- There are no video animations, but the way the author circumvent this with static fastly-skipped renders is super well done.
- The girls might not go well with you. Most of them are really muscular, so for those that don't find it aesthetically attractive, this may be a bummer.


Well, I guess that does it. Just finished my first playthrough - game is up to Chapt. 3 by the time of this little review - and was on Natasha's path. Time to do two more, this time one for Lilly and the other for Taylor - FINALLY A GAME THAT GIVES ME WHAT I CRAVE SINCE I SET EYES ON JACK IN MASS EFFECT 2, THANK YOU SO MUCH.

visual 10/10 story 10/10 character design 10/10
the only problem is the combat section needs a little bit more attention other wise there is no problem.
such a unique and under rated game it deserve more attention
thank you Dev.

This one got the potential to become a top tier game. Nice visuals and story. Loved the girls muscular one and not that muscular. Eagerly waiting for next update to see how the story gonna develop. Too excited for the clash between two teams. Even with the high ratings this one is underrated. This one deserves more recognition. Hoping more players will try this one. If you like the preview renders give this one a try story won't disappoint you.

Keep up the good work dev looking forward to next updates

first of all, the main reason i like this game, is because it has a black protagonist, which is pretty rare around here. i can self insert myself as him. this is very important to me.

pros

renders are amazing, and every LI looks different. i will definitely be supporting this dev.
story premise is unique and interesting
black MC

cons
gameplay is typical VN, could have taken more of a risk
not much xxx content.

EDIT: alot of handplaced props in the scenes, just fantastic! i love it!

I like fighting games and had heard good things about this one, sooo I gave it a try.

Would it penetrate my defences and deliver a knockout shot? or would it tap out and whimper like a lil bitch...I was up for finding out.

Holy fuckballs! I loved it! it stands head and shoulders above the other fighting ones on here. The fighting system is great. It has an element of strategy via action points used per fighting style moves. Also there is a decent variety of styles to train from.

As a Muay Thai fighter myself, I loved that I could pick it along with BJJ (Brazilian Ju Jitsu) which gives the MC a lethal combination of close combat and grappling/ground fighting. We start with basic combos but they will be upgraded later in game. The submission timer can be tricky but if you have good timing it's not too hard.

The MC is cool and though you can play him as being a dick, being nice and humorous just seems to suit his character perfectly. He's quite scrawny at the start but gets more buff later on, thankfully!

Talking about buff...holy shit, the girls....some are just dooownright scary! walking, talking, brick shithouses...

Natasha looks like she has ogre dna! but she is a sweetheart, although naive too. Talia is an evil, jacked up bitch...along with her coach...and Diana the Londoner...makes me wanna punch her mug in...gobby cow. Rosie is a sweetie as well, if you like your girls thicc, you will like her model. Her thighs could crack walnuts

Lily is a scream...love that girl! she's my type of fam and the same with Taylor - she is a clone of Jack from Mass Effect 2! freaked me the fuck out when I saw her! being a huge fan of Jack <3

The band content is wicked! full points for going Black Metal and not some boring assed music style. MMA and Metal go together like a bukake party at a porn convention! (um yeah, dont ask why I thought of that...)

The gfx are really good and the animations are brilliant....especially the band parts...I loved it. The environments are great too, you can tell a lot of work has gone into this.

The story is quite intriguing and I was pissed when the update finished on a very important choice. Dev, you cruel asshole! <3

Okies I sound like a crazed fan girl, time to wrap up and just say...

Play it or you are a lil pussy bitch!

It's amazeballs!...5 stars and a flash of my tits from me

I am so freaking impressed with this VN.

From the very beginning, you can already tell the quality of this game by its incredible renders and detailed environments. The dialogue is fun and matches each character quite well. I am also so tickled that the MC feels like another character in this world rather than just a vessel for a quick wank. There are so many ways you can build his personality.

And the girls are incredible. Each one varied and interesting. I'll be honest, I play the slut when it comes to VNs, hitting everyone and everything, but I felt so guilty going behind some of the girl's backs that I had to pick a route and stick to it for each playthrough.

And the story is shaping up to be something incredible. The creator has made something truly great and I can tell it is only going to get better.

Criminally UNDERRATED!

These kinds of AVNs breathe fresh air into the nonsensical debauchery-plagued world of AVN today. They offer original and authentic stories that must be experienced.

A) Who should give a shit?
= You....you should. Are you like me who has played hundreds of AVNs and just tired of endless smashin of genatalia in every other game? Are you like me who has encountered more holes in the renders rather than in plots (to be fair you cannot find plot holes in such avns because plot is simply nonexistent )? Then look no further....I almost slept on this game cuz it represented joining an academy...and you know how those games go right? But......this game offers a better experience laced with an action packed, emotional story with wide array of characters that are genuine.

Pros: Renders are absolutely outstanding, Plot is very beautifully executed (you basically join academy and training to become a fighter...but you meet new people along the way and there's struggles and vulnerability and dark themes at times), MC is actually nice and mature, Music is well chosen, writing is marvelous, humor is nice, and mini games (like fighting) are ingenious and fun (skipabble)! Choices absolutely matter and easy to track from in-game phone and also end of episode tells you how you are doing.

Cons: Honestly none. Everything is perfectly executed so far.

Verdict: Abso-fucking-lutely pick this up now! I'm a proud hand-holding, pat-giving, hug seeking fucko that appreciates good story telling mixed with vulnerable characters that add authenticity to such pieces of media. Broken bird trope enthusiasts like me will definitely appreciate some characters here.

(Insert Palpatine Voice) We will watch your career with great interest....

Go play it already!

Incredible game. Really underrated gem that deserves more attention.

Dev's art has a beautiful, unique style for multiple reasons. First, he is designing all of his own sets so what you see here you will not see in any other AVN. A lot of devs attempting to pull this off would end up with wonky assets, but everything here would be in high demand if it were being offered for sale. Second, Dev has also mastered character modeling in Daz3D so we see more realistic detail than in 99% of other visual novels. Third, Dev has taken a daring approach to designing the LI's so they are not like any you can find in any other game. Fourth, Dev's lighting is up there with the upper echelon of AVN artists to tie everything together beautifully.

But it's not just the art that stands out here. Dev is putting together a powerful story that has already hit the feels as of Chapter Three. The characters are all interesting--there is nothing boring or cookie cutter about anyone's personality, and their actions feel layered yet character consistent and properly motivated.

Really looking forward to seeing this one continue.

I like this game because it is unique in several ways.

1. The MC is not white for a change, which is a novelty.

2. It has muscle women who look good with realistic features.

3. There is romance and buildup instead of going straight to sex after the first or second meetup, and the one super easy to get sex with is mentally unwell and emotionally damaged anyway. Meaning if not careful you will pay a heavy price for easy sex because she is NOT ok psychologically and is potentially a threat to others.

4. It's a dating sim with MMA fighting simulation. Another novelty.

I give it 4 stars for novelty, wholesome love interests along with more... colorful ones. Unlike other games where virtually zero wholesome love interests exist, since in many games all the girls are easy and basically whores. Not ths game. With few exceptions you actually have to spend time getting to know people before they are down for sex. No meet and and get down for most of them. Which is frankly realistic.

I usually download the game and skip throught it to see if it is interesting or not. After skipping through this game I was compelled to play it. The game looked very well done as I skipped through it and I was NOT dissappointed during my three playthroughs.

First, let me address the elephant in the room. As a black man, I truly do LOVE and appreciate the MC being black. I appreciate that it was NOT a black character that adheres to various cringe black tropes that are normally seen in my of the AO VNs and games that are available. Usually, black male characters are written to be sidekicks, criminals, or fetishized objects for corrupted white wives to play with in front of their cuckold husbands or in private. They are usually dark skinned, well built, well-hung, brutish douche-bags who are only there as a meansfor the white female character to be sexed up or damn near raped by "Jamal". I am so glad that this game decided to make a black male MC who doesn't fit into stereotypes. The fact that the character loves metal music (like me) is icing on the cake.

The renders are great. You can tell that the developer wasn't trying to be lazy because the common areas in the game seem filled with plenty of actual people and not silhuoettes, shadows or just empty areas. This makes the game more believable and more enjoyable to me.

I LOVE the characters. I think that the dating interests are all attractive even with their unorthodox beauty. Natatsha is very tall and muscular but she is a knockout. Lily has a glass eye and she often goes cross eyed but there is something about her. Lexy is scarred with a dead eye and she is still very hot. In fact, most of the datable characters seem to have something about them that bdoesn't fit with typical beauty standards and I think that this is good. But, the best part about them is their stories. Even assholes like Joe and Lexy are not one dimensional.

The only thing that keeps this game from a 5 star rating from me is the fact that it is softcore. I admit that this is my own personal hangup. I prefer games found on cites that are for pornographic AO games and VNs to be hardcore. There is no exposed genitalia in this game.

ThisVN comes highly recommended. Some people may not like the fact that you can't go through this carelessly fucking every available hot woman in the game that seems remotely interested at you. Others won't like that softcore aspect of it or the charcters who are not physically perfect. Other may complain that the VN is "too woke" ( I swear that people are using the word "woke" wrong, but I digress) because of the black MC and non-traditional characters but, it is not preachy.This game allows you to make your own choices and those choices matter.

Okay i return having gotten up to the last chapter atm. I stand by most of my earlier thoughts (VN with a black protag, i like the characters, the dialogue is very good, good interactions).

I like the characters as well as the interactions quite a bit. This game does a good job of doing the relationship between ppl well enough but since the focus isn't on sex as much as most visual novels, i don't feel like the amount of interaction is high enough at least atm. Since this is pretty much on rails so you can't choose to interact with someone unless its up to that part in the story. The game seemingly pushes you towards Natasha (which is fine because she is bae) but it feels kinda hard to not feel like she's the only correct option since early on she dominates the storyline. On the sex side its okay it's softcore but my thoughts are when you get to those parts, it seems a lil too...straight to the point. You don't do much playing around or interaction during those moments. As I'm sure others have said, because of the dedication to making this softcore...the sex scenes are a little awkward because every shot has to hide the genitals. All in all though regardless of anything i said, this is still great vn with fun interesting characters, good dialogue, nice renders, pretty good music, and a BLACK MALE PROTAG. Can't wait for the updates and keep up the good work.

If you're on the fence about should you download this one or not. Let me make it easy for you... YES! Why are you still reading this review if you haven't played the game yet?

You care about the characters, their motivations, and their struggles. This was fun I have multiple saves with different interests because I cared for almost all of them. Especially Lily. That's my girl with her crazy ass. She just wants to be loved and accepted. Honestly 10/10.

PROS
- The characters are so well presented, the writing on point. You always wanna know more, what happened to to Natasha, why is Alexa such a bitch, how did she get the scars, etc. He is really successful in understanding how to constantly pique the reader's interest.
- Gotta love the choices in this game. It feels like they really do matter, not just in selecting your love interest but also your fighting style or what faction you wanna join (Ivan or Alexa). Very much looking forward to how this unfolds!
- Very diverse set of characters. All skin shades, races, ethnicities, and whatnot. But very importantly, he does not dilute the primary LI pool. A lot of devs love adding tons of LIs. But he understands the more LIs he adds, the less dedication each of them get.
- I LOVE MUSCLE GIRLS (yes im bias)
- One of the few games where I havent muted the music. Its on point and relevant to the scene. None of the typical royalty free music you've heard millions of times.
- I'll be honest and say I usually skip/disable minigames. They are typically boring or just involve some sort of repetitive clicking or grind. Finally someone is able to add some gameplay without it being grindy! Its fun trying to use the techniques you've picked to beat the opponent, though it doesn't really matter (so far?) if you win or lose.

CONS
- Seems the dev made a choice where he decided to not include graphic sex scenes. Thats fine but I'm not sure why do that in a genre of gaming where you're gonna be rated AO anyway? AAA devs censor genitals cause they are required to by ESRB and other regulators so I don't understand its application here? The sex scenes are kinda awkward because he has to position them in a way that hides the genitals. Regardless, I (personally) don't agree with this approach and felt he needlessly censored the game. #FREETHEPENIS
- The latest release ( v0.3.1 ) has removed the beloved cross eyes from Liliana. I think earlier releases perhaps overdid it with the cross eyes but the latest release has unfortunately completely removed it. I think a good balance of it appearing occasionally would've been nice but I think he wanted to make her more normal. I'll miss it, I definitely think its part of her charm, being 'abnormal' is what makes her unique.

This is an amazing game and the latest update(0.3) only made it even better with the choices and the backstory of Alexa.
The renders are great and the girls are interesting and have different personalities.
The choices matter a lot.
The music is great and it fits well on the game.

Had no idea what to expect from this game, but I liked pretty much everything about it.

Interesting characters, good visuals, and audio choice. The story and the setting might not be groundbreaking but it's very well written and engaging to read with some interactive choices throughout the game. And with the main focus of the story being martial arts some graphical violence is featured in this as well and the fighting mechanic itself is pretty decent too.

It's also a plus that the characters and dialogue are put in the forefront without needing a crutch in the form of pornography, people tend to forget that adult content means more than just sex and this game tackles some of it.

Now, the game isn't perfect and there are some rough edges here and there, but If you like story and character-focused VN's with romance and some drama then definitely check this one out, it's very entertaining.

I haven't gotten too far into the game yet, but I really, REALLY like it so far. As a black person who likes metal, it's rare for me to identify with a protagonist to this degree (the closest was the protagonist from the game, Connected by ChainZero, which was sadly abandoned). I also like MMA AND I really like muscly girls, so this game is right up my alley in many ways. I guess the only difference is that I myself like a certain politician mentioned in this game that the protagonist seems to hate. I didn't mind though since hating him is par for the course with the people in this community.

The writing is decent so far with good grammar and no (from what I can tell so far) syntax errors. I wish the author a ton of luck going forward with this project!
