Ren'Py - Altered Destiny [v0.10c] [ICCreations]

One of the greatest porn games I've ever played.

I had it put aside because I didn't like the appearance of the MC and her best (female) fried, Kim.

But I tried it out of boredom, and it has gone directly to one of my top ten. Maybe even top 5, I don't have them rated.


I like the MC and Kim. They are likeable. The MC is not a hateful person that only wants to fulfill his lust as in many games. He cares about the people he loves and understands that something must not happen, so it's slow burn.

Of course, he will do it will all the female cast, but in a tasteful way. He even put on a condom to have sex with one of the LI.

Netorare (NTR): Per definition "one character, often a man, is romantically or sexually involved with a woman, but she is seduced or forced into a sexual relationship with another man, leading to feelings of betrayal, jealousy, and emotional distress for the original partner.", there is no NTR in this game.

But if you are the part of the f95 NTR hater group and feels betrayed if your female friend pecks your mother, or gets hurts when a LI married to another LI have (out of screen) sex, this game is not for you. Avoid it.

Bro i don't know why this game is so underrated. I mean I get it sandboxes are very annoying when you want to bust that nut but this game is too good to be avoided just because of that . The characters were well designed, the story writing is good, the animations are good.. well. I mean there is very little to complain in this game. I mean being a dik, treasure of nadia,summertime saga(og) all are grind centered game. but theese games as a whole are too good to overlook , the same can be said in its case. I don't know of your opinions but this game is a solid A tier game.

I absolutely loved the characters, the story line and the look of the characters. The characters were well developed, and you can actually see them growing and still staying true to some form of moral code. The MC really does try to be a good and moral person, but his moral code of making sure that those he loves are happy and fulfilled over rides that sometimes. It actually becomes a rather endearing trait.

Good story so far, and really good renders/animations. I just wish there was an IC patch, since his "roommate" calls him "bro". Other than that, really liking this so far. The game mechanics are pretty fun as well. Having to upgrade your transportation to reach further out spots gives it a challenge.

This game has really interesting and emotional story, in a good way and i love it! Characters are hot, with different personalities, a there is a type for everyone.
Animations are really good, so are the scenes in general, with good writing in whole game. Great work as always from this dev, wish you all the luck!

Just a fantastic game. The women are varied, there's fun shenanigans, time travel had fun implications, and it's got enjoyable humor. I enjoy these games where it's pretty linear, but you're given a world and you can go and focus on who you want

Good story so far, left me wanting way more lol .09c so far. The game does a good balance of the time travel feature (i think i missed the part were since he messed with the past why the mc doesn't disappear also) The ladies are hot though the fortune teller is meh (in terms of looks) and could be a possible way to guide players if they are lost.

I am very confused by some of the negative reviews for this game.
Some people are saying the story is too hard to follow or that it doesn't make sense. I can only assume these people do not understand English very well.
Some of the character criticisms (one character in particular) are based on an older version of the game.

The story in my opinion is quite good; traveling back in time and forward again and seeing how what your character did in the past effects the present is executed quite well. But this is not a jump into the R rated scenes kind of game, it is very much narrative driven first and foremost.

The characters over all are great, they are very believable in a R-rated incest game sort of way. They all have distinct personalities without entering caricature territory.

Kim's character in particular is heavily criticised; but to me it looks as if her critics have missed something that, if intended, seems very obvious. I would encourage people to play the game rather than read this next part

Short said -- dev is talented but the game is kinda not my thing
writing is good - parodies are funny ( still missing the baywatch parody lol )

came for the time travel stuff and hoping for some kinks that are just missing for the moment

kinda played until the story just stopped and no more quest popped up..
since i spend alot of time in this gime - had to write a review.

if you are into overwelming hand and blowjobs.. this is your game
if you are into big boobed every girl .. this is your game
if you are into 60y grannys that look 40 with big firm boobs ... wel this is your game..
the only girl with kinda perky tits is lesbian so you can only dream about that...

overall good writing good 'story' but it misses some good features
and being more than 6 gigs in file size.. well maybe i expected more
models look a bit out of date and the same... but hey. thats a personal opinion

* Dev has clarified my drastic misunderstandings. Review altered in response. I will be replaying the game in full as my recollection is flawed and biased at best. Edit: Sorry to dev for not clarifying that and coming across as sarcastic (I forgot to update the rating it wasn't a personal slight. ) * tl;dr and skip to ratings on bottom.

MC's friend is given free reign to do something just about anyone would be furious over without consequence that the stereotypical "main character" plot armor allows. I greatly dislike this.

As to the game itself, the renders are solid the faces are... not quite but a bit disney-esque at times? The pacing isn't bad, and the general premise is good. If you can get over the hangups I have over the issue above, I recommend giving it a try.

Edit: Overall rating I say 2, maybe 2.5 , but given the sincerity of the dev and future clarifications in the story of these issues I say it has plenty of upside. I appreciate them taking the time to reach out. That sincerely impressed me. Could end up being a quite good game in my view even with my misgivings. I'll keep tabs, and recommend anyone on the fence to give it another shot later after a few updates.

However, I (personally) still find Kim to be a horrible "friend" who has a lot of work to redeem themselves as a decent person the MC should have any goodwill towards and think MC is a bit of a pushover as a result.

Ratings on a 0-5 Scale for clarification 0-1 = 1 star
Concept: 3/5 (Time travel to save the world/etc)
Plot: 1.5/5 (Reasons that I sincerely disliked above)
Sound: 3/5 (Nothing praise, nothing to shut the volume off for either)
Graphics: 2.5/5 (Faces overly expressive at times, not bad, not something you'd DL in 4K either, which with over 7GB it feels a bit bulky for...hmmm "vintage" renders? Still solid, I've seen far worse and its better than Koikatsu assets.)
Price: 5/5 (Its free PogU)
Overall: 2.5/5 As it is I feel its a 2 star, but dev's sincerity bumps to a 3.

Jesus, game is just bad. It is crazy to think that this dev has so much experience and yet is delivering something like this. The renders are showing their years already, the characters are awfully unlikeable like, very unlikeable and even annoying at times, is the dev making them like that on purpose? Dont know, it doesn't seem like a good idea in these type of games, and of course you cant avoid stuff.
Also the game seems to be a bit obsessed with lesbianism to the point it gets very annoying and makes you roll your eyes, so if you are not really into it a lot, dont try this one. The MC feels like an afterthought in this , seems like he is just supposed to watch or something, honestly just feels like he is just "there" but he is not the one driving the story and is just dumb and obnoxious, kinda like the rest of the characters here

....The story ...... is okish I guess, time travel is always an interesting topic and this has some twists and stuff but they are all very silly and unimaginative, and since the game doesn't make you care about the characters it ends up very mediocre, dialog is very cringe at times, as are some very stranger facial expressions that really make you question what the f you are doing with your time playing this.
Overall, one of the least enjoyable experiences I've had playing a porn game in quite a while.

One of the fucking BEST GAME ever!
Good Side : The crazy story and gameplay!
Bad Side : The interface is not ergonomic. A clearer walkthough should be made. The Gallery is messed up. Lack of choice during scenes.
The graphics are good enought to support the story.

But at the end of the day, the story is so wild that it make up for all the other limits!

I was kind of intrigued by the premise of this game -- time travel, etc. -- and some of the models are attractive, but I find myself totally distracted by the exaggerated facial expressions of the characters. To me, they look like actors in amateur theatricals who are constantly overacting. I've known a wide variety of people over the years of different backgrounds, ethnicities, social classes and personalities but I've never known anybody with such consistently exaggerated facial expressions. The dev should really dial back on the facial expressions unless he's going for an effect, but if that's it, he should probably consider having some characters in clown makeup, too.

Okay, I tried this. I honestly did (I even revisited this). This is a kinetic sandbox where the MC is treated like the he's a sidekick. His lesbian best friend is the true main character and it's absolutely absurd. The entire time I kept trying to figure out why the story felt like the MC was just there to observe ... it's because it's an NTR kink. That's exactly what this is. Always watching, rarely participating (a blowjob being the exception). Fucking bizarre. I gave up after the Sidekick (he's not an MC) got back home and found out his mom had been turned into a lesbian by the MC (Kim). That was enough. I couldn't take this bullshit anymore.

Choices are nonexistent with pointless dialogue queues are there in order to obtain specific puzzle pieces at points. Otherwise, zero use. The sandbox ... absolutely useless. What is it with devs thinking that giving readers a sandbox, that for the most part just serves as delay points, somehow adds some depth? Then there's the characters who have about as much depth as a dip and spread stick for cheese and crackers. The Sidekick is a clueless bent who can't judge other people's intentions for shit. Kim (the real MC at this point) is a self-serving piece of shit just begging to get her slit licked by any woman living (I'm assuming dead is out of the question I don't know I didn't get that far) including the sidekick's mom when they find themselves in the past and she disappears, still don't know why it was necessary for sidekick to go, to take his younger mom to a water tower ... THE FUCK?! Natalie, the sidekick's sister, had about as much personality as a bitch in heat just trying to get laid. The MC's mom seemed nice and gaging for it but ... nothing. Just fishing for complements from the sidekick. Penelope, straight in the past, gave the sidekick a blowjob right in front of her mom and ... nope, now she's gay. Basically, at this point I'm assuming sidekick's true ability is to turn all women into lesbians.

Great VN dev -__- . Look I'm not opposed to this idea. You have the building blocks here. You just should make the reader follow Kim because being the dipshit sidekick sucks ass. It's boring and going nowhere. You might as well turn him into a nerd who hides in a closet wearing a superman cap jacking off while his moms fuck. He's not a character I want to root for and with the cockblocking MC it's starting to seem like a cucking VN, which I didn't sign up for.

Sorry, I'm just tired of sandbox bullshit that unnecessarily wastes my time. Why are you wasting my time? I like my time. If I could I'd get a refund on my life you've just wasted. On top of that, this is all kinetic. So why have the sandbox at all. If you want to make a specific story where choices don't matter, take the wheel. Own the shit out of that. Give us a compelling story that doesn't mess around with the extra nonsense and lay it all out. Adding a sandbox and dressing dialogue "choices" up as if they matter makes me think you didn't feel your story was good enough to stand on its own. They don't trigger anything specific and I don't see any other outcomes possible from how this is laid out. I mean, there's literally no way to have this sidekick leave without finding Kim and his mom. Why not? Why can't he just go bone the fuck out of Penelope? If the MC is going to do whatever the fuck she wants why can't he? But he can't there's no alternate outcomes so just take away the sandbox and the illusion of choice and just tell us the story you want to tell. I'm guessing it'll cut down on development time too. So I say go for it.

Hold up!

I decided to give this another shot. The sidekick does get some action. It's decent in that aspect. But it's still taking way to long for him to become the main character. lol Still not there yet in my opinion. That opener needs some serious work. It's still a fucked off story that holds no consequences to for his actions/dialogue "choices" so that portion still stands. It's just a kinetic novel masquerading as a choose your own adventure. There's still absolutely no reason for the sandbox and it largely feels like a waste of time. Not just for the reader but for the dev too. Wouldn't it be easier to let this experience be on rails? Just saying. I don't know. It's probably just me. But I will say this. EZ mode for your mini games ... personally I'd just remove them, nothing about these seem fun, but ... but having an actual EZ mode, my dude. Chef's kiss. No joke. Fucking brilliant and thank you. Other things to praise, the models are great. Seriously, I saw a negative comment about the models before trying this out and couldn't disagree more. The milfs are hot and the younger chicks are beautiful. Well done. Overall, this is 3/5. It's not as awful as I thought, still not great, but there's room to improve.

All and all this clearly is not for me as of right now, version 0.8. As always I still wish the developer all the best. I genuinely hope they've found their audience and the support they deserve. If you liked this, don't let my opinion change yours at all. Just like assholes we all are one ... have one . Like, hate, somewhere in between, take some time to leave a review of your own. Let the dev know what you liked and what you didn't. And let's all remember this was uploaded for free to try out, so if you do love this take a second to consider giving something back to help the dev out. Cheers.

If the reviews are from players back in the early stages of the game I get why the dislike, because howdy does this game take a while to get into the action.

If the hate is for Kimberly, I guess I can't argue against subjective taste but I really like the girl, she's a fun addition to the formula of these games, a frequent companion rather than the MC talking to himself. I heard she slept with a female love interest in an early update and that was changed but I guess this is subjective taste again, I don't have a problem with female characters sleeping with female characters, I would have preferred it stayed.

The story ended up being enjoyable, important for getting through the start which lacks the spicier scenes and does time travel well, it is not mess, there are clear goals of what the MC has to do and they set out to do them, and the pay off for 0.8. it's exactly what you want in these types of games.

I expect things will only improve as a lot of ground work has been laid out for even spicier scenes.

I highly recommend for incest fans.

i like interconection between the characters. you can tell that the story has focus from the delevolpers because of the forshadowing and execution of the storytelling. The humor drifts from kind of silly with your science teacher to good with your best friend and her mom. You wont be buried in lewd scene but neither teased. it is a sandbox game but you can put of mini games if you want, but they arent many of them anyway.

Very good game, with a likeable cast of characters, interesting plot and good sex scenes.

I personally don't understand the hate for Kimberly in some of the other reviews, I think she's great. I'd recommend anyone who's interested in the game to play it and form their own opinions and not let these reviews make them potentially miss out on a great game.

While I also liked the dev's previous game, I find the plot in this one much more engaging than in "F.I.L.F." which, to me, leads to much more interesting and meaningful scenes (lewd or not) with the game's love interests and I can't wait to see what will happen next.

Story 1/5
Story is i dunno weird mostly i guess, you got MC running around with hes lesbian? friend and considering theres only 4 females to start with and 2 of them are ugly milfs, it really limits any hope for this to be a good game and dont even get me started on how MC can go ask hes lesbian friend dad if he thinks hes daughter wants more with MC or not? i mean seriously?
And it sure in hell dosent help when you see the future of your friend being with MCs sister i mean what the fuck is this game about, i thought it was a male potaganist but feels more like the girl is the main character...and then you see MCs future with some big tittet bimbos i wouldent even touch, game truely went to shit for me personaly, the only girl i had even a remotely interrest in was MCs friend but yeah thats gone bye bye.

What makes it worse is how game talks about having choices but clearly thats just not the case, your already forced to follow a set kinetic path without any choices, why cant devs just put the tag on so we dont have to waste our time if we hate kinetic shit....

They also made everyone brainless MC and hes friend, trying to keep a secret about what they found and they truely couldent do a worse job when asking around about it, its just so pointless and predictable which makes for a very boing story and you can see plots/twists coming from 50 miles away, why not do something diffrent then whats already been done and seen 5 million times before, only thing that comes close to being a supprise is how brainless MC truely is how brainless MC can be when he just opens up to a total stranger and tell her everything, i mean gimme a break, atleast try to make a decent story.

Then they go back in time and meet MCs mother, none of them is even remotely worried if they are changing the timeline so MC will never be born when they start hanging out with hes Mother when shes a kid, hole story just makes so little sense and theres no attention to details what so ever, lets just totaly ignore that the money they are using is from the future fuck its bad man.
At one point you find your lesbian friend making out with your mother????
guess she dosent care if MC gets born or not ehh.....wtf come on, that turns MCs mother into a lesbian but somehow MC is still born? i mean game is just to awfull and theres 0 attention to details.


And why does MCs always have to love big tits, why not just be neutral i mean personaly i hate em so it gets annnoying to hear how much MC loves them when i couldent care less.
But thats the next thing game is really only for people with big tit fetish and milfs since theres close to no diversity in builds which makes the game awfull, why not make some diversity so theres something for everyone to enjoy instend of cutting off a ton of players its idiotic and not good buissness.

And explain to me why the fuck MC has a constant hard on? he comes home from school and take a bath and hes hard as a rock? huh? and then your only have two choices of ugly ass females while he jerks off to? wtf? why? no ship option either and why only 2 idiotic options? both i wouldent touch with a 10ft pole, atleast give some real choices like hes friend or sister....gees.... and picking any of the 2 will have 2/3 in development as well...again feels like development is lacking.

This game really need a peek button so we arent forced to look at old ugly asses i mean fuck me.....why do devs think everyone on earth loves to look at old asses and big saggy tits i dont get it and it dosent help that MC for some reason has x-ray vision.....just hate games that tries to force fetishes on ya.

Also wish they wouldent put in stuff that arent even in the game, like the girl on the beach it only makes game feels like early development which it really shouldent be after 4 years, but constantly seeing the in development on stuff feels stupid when game should be closer to finished then anything else.

Game forces LIs on you as well so you can forget about having any kind of choices, your forced to be with the most ugly girls in the game hate them or not dosent matter cant say no what so ever.

So game is a pure mindless fuckfest porngame with a really poor story and if thought sandbox would give you the freedom to not fuck a girl then think again since quests you need to do will force girls on you, like i said kinetic.

Theres no hint system either, not that its really needed since sandbox is pointless since you just click on where ever the ! is and thats it boring and pointless just like the rest of the game.

Girls 1/5
I dident find any of them even remotely hot, its down to personal taste but to me there was nothing.

Animations 3/5
Pretty decent and proberly the best thing about the game but it wont help on a shitty story.

Sandbox 2/5
Its just pointless since it dosent do anything but make you waste more time to get around the maps thats all it does.

Choices 0/5
Its kinetic you have no choices, they try to hide it being a sandbox but fails.

The game is really nice up to this point. Some folks were saying negative things about that Kim character, and even though I've never played the game before, I decided to join in because it was kinda funny. Meg Griffin effect.

After giving the game a try, I haven't come across any parts that I didn't like, and Kimberly is quite cool. I enjoyed the writing, the story, and everything else about it. The ability to change the timeline in the game adds a lot of fun. Right now, I'm just interested in seeing how the developer plans to continue the story

Animations and Renders are awesome too.

I played through this a couple years ago when it was on like chapter two and Kim still hasn't gotten any better,

Her character is the single worse thing about this VN. Her character is arrogant, selfish and really not a good friend. She's also like the MC and the actual MC is just along for the ride. Not sure why he doesn't just put her in her place.

This would be better if her character wasn't in it.

Also there are a lot of hoops to jump through which I wouldn't mind if the payout was good enough but at this point it isn't.

I found this VN more frustrating than fun.
