Ren'Py - Another Chance [v1.59] [TimeWizardStudios]

Great art, good writing, and the code base looks solid for a renpy game.

The gameplay sucks a lot though. Like, A LOT, a lot. At some point early on it unravels into an itemhunt without any (useful) hints. I just had to click every interactable object in the game, several times - and still ended up getting stuck less than halfway through. The "puzzles" are just not intuitive, or even logical.

4 stars is really generous, and I would give 3 or 2 if it was a later update.

The problem is easily fixed, either with an ingame walkthrough, a lot more, solid hints, or even an external, official pdf walkthrough. If we get that, I'll raise it to 5 stars. If we get more of what it is now instead, 2 stars it will be. Its just too frustrating.

Art = awesome
Story = better than other horse s***s
only problem in my eyes is hints are actually quest log... there is next to no hints.
If the devoloper makes hints alot better all my one hand player (like wise) can enjoy the game with out trying to solve riddles.
may be i am thinking to much over it...
but Game is really good

Great drawing
Horrible gameplay, it is way to convoluted and confusing, hint menu is 100% useless, crafting is horrible terrible and doesnt make sense half the time. To play this game you need a walkthrough with diagrams to show you where each item is hiding and what you need it for.

Hands down my pick for most promising game of 2020. It takes a special kind of game to keep me from the CTRL key on my keyboard--this is that game. Shocking amount of content for a first true release. Lots of great art. Beautiful, varied women, drawn in an appealing art-style that doesn't cater to the typical "giant tits, giant areolas, baloney nipples" fetish many artists seem to have. Legitimately beautiful women, with a great variety.

The writing rivals or exceeds any writing of any game I've played, with the only close contenders being Acting Lessons, BADik, and The Headmaster. Even beats out Summertime Saga, in my opinion. Characters are written to have individual voices and traits, which is reflected in the art. Immense amounts of flavor text. VERY funny. One of the few games that has actually made me laugh out loud at some of the lines. The writing when describing the bodies of the women is sexy while remaining tasteful. Minimal typos (haven't found a single one in 2 hours of playtime).

Large amount of content, especially for only a little over 4 months of work. Quests are fun, well-written, and rewarding to those who explore around and get their traits high.

Not a single complaint or recommendation. Keep up the work. You've earned yourself a dedicated Patron.
EDIT: There is ONE complaint--the game is in a pretty broken state. Softlocks can occur with no knowledge of triggering one until you realize that time is no longer moving. No ability to get Flora's phone being one side-effect of some unknown softlock I've triggered. Regardless, I stand by my rating because of the reasons stated above, and the fact that the current release has been out less than 2 days.

The introduction to the story is great, love the art style, game play and dialogue. although it's still the demo the game has potential.
it's definitely worth giving this game a shot and trying it out

Really good art style, characters are good, Point system is good too bad that demo was so short. The game has really good potential and I can't wait for more updates. But how time advances is not good in my opinion like when you talk with somebody that was kinda annoying still great game and so sorry for bad English.

So the demo isn't very long, but I'm all in on this game! At first I wasn't sure if I'd like the artwork enough; there are plenty of places to get hentai after all. But it won me over pretty quickly. The people on screen shift, smile, blush, look at you in abject horror, etc. as you talk with them instead of standing stagnant like in other games. Some people are complaining about the noses but I think its an interesting art style choice.

Besides, we know you aren't looking at their noses anyways...

The dialogue was very good and had me laughing out loud at many of the responses the MC could give. Only caught one spelling error and one dropped word, so that was refreshing as well. I liked that interactive objects highlight as you mouse over them. I'm tired of the games that force me to hunt for objects with the tip of my mouse pointer.

Time Wizards, keep up the great work! Eagerly awaiting more!

Great art, great premise, great potential.
The writing is smart but not too chunky, and the characters are just rounded (lul) enough to hold your attention without being distracted. Can't wait for more, just hope the updates can keep the dream alive.

Looks promising, dialog is there the art style and layout of the game are fantastic. All tho the demo is short, there is a lot of potential here to expand on dialog and new contented wise.
It is definitely worth giving it a chance to progress and to try it out.

the game has potential, a shame that the demo will last shortly but I see a good future, I like the type of game and art and sister hahahaha
I hope you have a good afloat and go well and complete the game

Not a lot of content yet but extremely promising. Beautiful and unique art style, funny/sharp writing, and straightforward gameplay. Lot's of different characters introduced in the demo so lots to look forward to.

Short intro, but very well done. The sister is adorable, and the characters all seem likeable (and hot). There is a mainstream quality to the appearane and UI, and the descriptions are very well done. Can't wait to see where this goes.

legendary game !!!
every thing is perfect it just need time .. you can tell from the first 3min of the game it going to be good
give it 1 year and you will find it in top 10
story: awesome
art: awesome
dialogue: 100%

I love the Intro, Mysteries, Lovely ladies, The plot of the story, Dating sims, & Nice ending credits. So now I have a wonderful feeling that I would love to looking forward to your future project! >W<

At the time of the review there game is only at the demonstration phase, but the attention to detail and quality of the game are already apparent.

The game has an enjoyable soundtrack and also has proper sound effects and atmospheric sounds already in place. The game has plenty of humor in the descriptive text. There is no broken quests or dead end interactions until after the current location of the credits.

And the best for last: The game has a wonderful 2D art style that fits the setting and characters like a glove. I normally prefer 3D characters, but the 2D art is so well done here that I would actually be saddened if the 2D characters were replaced with 3D characters.

Very well done, but at first it is not very convenient to get acquainted with the interface. I advise you to play and for DEMO very much even anything. I will follow the game, good luck to the developer, drawing is very beautiful.

A great introduction. The character designs and art are appealing, and the writing is fun. For a first release demo, this is impressive -- the groundwork your team has laid is solid and promises great things for the future. Got me hooked and looking forward to coming back.

Current version is 0.0.1. You all know what this means - no gameplay, no story, no tits, just a pathetic excuse for a game in order to make some sweet, sweet Patreon money.

Well, think again! While the demo might be short, it more than makes up for it with style - what little content there is is given in small doses, just enough to suggest the full beauty of the art and the characters, but leave you wanting more.

The story starts off a bit cliche, but the writing is so good that I forgot any grievances I might have had. From the start you are suckered in by the verbose writing and it gets weirder and better the more you read. Add in a hint of mystery to keep the plot going and you get a great combination.

The character designs are another thing I want to bring your attention to. Such variety and quality is seldom seen these days, and here we have 5 girls that are sure to make you look twice.

Give this demo a try. The content as of now might not be much, but you would not want to miss out on this.
