VN - Ren'Py - Artemis [v0.5.1] [digi.B]

Just an immaculant piece of work and probably the best first release by any dev yet really well polished and organized
I can only guess The shear amount of effort and time that went into making this possible but i gotta say it's paid off big time props to the dev you've made a fine piece of art

A really nice "fantasy" sci-fi plot that reflects the struggles of people with life in reality that bridges the reader to feel for the MC.
Writings are spot on with great humor that keeps the readers engaged and submerged in the story
Has solid base for great character development and diversification
Top notch renders with hot new models Nice attention to details and the details have artistic touch which is exceptional
Ah the animation damn nailed it and probably one of the best there is for a first release that is also exceptional
Nice UI and sandbox system the designs are pretty slick

What else? might just be the next big thing XD

Keep up the good work dev. Hope you succeed in what you want to present to the audience.
GOODLUCK.

I rarely give any game 5 star. But now after playing it I felt it deserves more.
*Amazingly done renders.
*Some unique and really beautiful models with good character development.
*Really good and captivating story that leaves you wanting to know more.
*Nicely structured dialogues with emphasis on emotions.
A top notch game if I say so myself.

Reviewing as of Ch. 1.

I'm very impressed with the bones of this story. There's a slight futurist vibe to it, which I quite like. The developer also clearly put a lot of effort into the characters, which are varied and plentiful, and the main character, who actually looks like a guy who would be able to get some of the girls that these games throw at you.

For a first release, it's absolutely incredible. The attention to detail and the length of the first chapter is great. The dialogue is snappy, at times quite humorous. You can already build an attachment to the characters, who are distinct from each other just by the way they tald and interact with the MC. And you can really start to get into the position of the player character, which is exactly what you want out of a VN.

The premise, however, is kind of a stretch, and it feels inconsistent in execution. Your character was badly betrayed by their girlfriend 3 years ago, but is an extremely gifted coder who apparently made revolutionary AI technology even as a high schooler. But then you've been out of work because... reasons, despite being a genius coder (and especially in a 'show me' profession like programming where it's relatively easy to get a career without a ton of professional experience if you have the technical skills and/or body of work to back it up). You literally get escorted out of a number of job interviews. Then when you finally land an interview—at a place established by many of the female characters in the game, no less—your resume is suddenly "great."

You're struggling. You can't pay rent. But apparently can see a popular psychologist multiple times a week. You've been completely destroyed by this betrayal, your life is in shambles, you can't even see your ex-girlfriend without running out of the room. But you're evidently fine to work (which begs the question why haven't you been working earlier?).

It just seems like your character's situation is fluid based on the needs of the narrative. It's neither here or there because it's exactly what the plot demands at that specific point in time.

The girls are precocious, to say the least. You room with a highly valued DJ who happens to be a robotics expert and who inherited some underground lab that looks more like the secret lair for a science fiction megavillain. You're interviewed by some fresh sorority girl college graduate who already has her own VC firm and tons of clients, who hired a bunch of ridiculously gifted sorority sisters. One of whom you had prior history with, apparently a genius biochemist who already created some kind of revolutionary birth control but is kind enough to work as a bartender in her spare time... I guess?

Oh, you get roped into being a stunt cock for some sorority initiation and now you're part of the club now, despite having graduated a few years ago. So you can now be the creeper older guy who hangs around college girls. Yay!

There seem to be no reason to make them college students in particular, other than perhaps to save the developer the headache so they can shove them all into the same sorority building. The story and believability would probably benefit from them all being older, career women.

All in all, it feels like the characters are kind of a teenage/college student's fantasy of what successful people at that point in life are like. And the situation of the MC is kind of stretched and tugged to fit whatever situation the developer needs it to be.

None of this makes the VN impossible to enjoy, of course, and the effort put into almost every facet of this first chapter is still immediately obvious. But it does pull it back from perfection. It's a very good game, but with more care paid to the story and premise, it could be great.

Love this game! Not only are the visuals nice with good animation but the writing is some of the best. Great characters with interesting personalities and fun attitudes. Found myself laughing quite a bit playing this chapter.

One of a kind game.

The chemistry between the characters is very well crafted and developed.
The turns that the plot takes are very believable wich makes both the protagonist and antagonist relatable and believable characters.
The plot is very well constructed and oposite to a lot of other porn games, this one actually makes you put yourself into the protagonist shoes in the emotional department, being that anger, happiness or sadness.

Keep on the good work because if chapter 2 is of the same quality as this one or even half of it, this game might just become top 1 in no time.

My English is not so good, but I try to express my feelings.

The game is so good. I pretty much like that. It's my first time to start from chapter one, from the beginning. And i didn't regret that.

Dialogues, characters - all is good. And I agree with most of comments, that it will be a very good rivalry to BaDIK.

I have some money issues for now. But in 1-3 monthes I will totally donate Digi.b. Thank you a lot. I had a lot of fun

Posted my opinion on this earlier, but forgot to rate it, whoops!
(Out of 5 stars)
Characters: 5 (so far)
Graphics: 5 (Not as polished as some others, but they don't take me out of the game or the characters, so I don't detract points because of it.)
MC: 5 - While he has some goofiness splashed in here and there, I can relate. I never had the situation with a woman, but depression and anxiety have made me totally get some of the reactions thus far.
Default Music: 5 - I felt like the things were fitting the mood, and when I. might not have realized or heard music, I realized it just blended in and I didn't even notice it. That is meant in a positive way.

I'm sure I could say a lot more ,but I can't wait for the next update!

New sensation on F95zone, digi.B has surely made a high standard for new dev. I mean each & every aspect of the game has no flows. from story to characters, static renders to animation all are just top notch.

These games are the reasons why we always open the "Latest updates" page first.

I was not really found of Sci-fi genre as most of them are not too realistic and I doesn't find them engaging while playing for long but this game has really shown the broad aspect of this genre, you don't have to put the future or space shit to make a good story.

The dev has surely made a game which is competing directly to the top rated VNs, just hope the quality is maintain by digiB. Can't wait to play next episode.

Call me fucking impressed. This title just zoomed to the top of my list of titles to watch.

This had some amazing sexy moments and a lot of beautiful, interesting, and different women. Good music. But, the writing of this VN is what really makes this game shine for me.

I have never laughed as hard as I did with the Kindra/MC's Penis scene. OMG, Kindra is every nerd's wet dream girl.

I was also literally brought to tears at the end of chapter 1. No game has ever evoked that kind of reaction from me. Ever.

And, Cassandra? Sexy as hell, but also one of the most well-written, vile creatures I have ever seen. Holy fucking shit I hated her. I'm really curious to see where this goes.

I just can't say enough about how good this game is. Well done. Keep up the good work.

Holy Shit...This game had me so much on the edge of my seat, That I felt like writing this review at 3 AM in the morning . This is not just an adult VN, Its a masterpiece. The storytelling is excellent, so much so that it had my jaw dropped after the introduction of Artemis, even though I long guessed Kindra's secret project was an AI cyborg chick. Great renders, excellent portrayal of characters & a lot of humor. One of the very few games whereby I don't care for the lewd scenes because I'm hooked by the story.

I would like to wish the very best to the dev / team for their efforts. keep the updates rolling.

This is it. This is the one. The one game that has it all; god-level renders, amazing characters that are unique and have their own backstories that draws the reader in. Hard to find the best gril- Just kidding it's Kindra by a mile. Kindra is this fresh take on the "Childhood friend trope" .
The writer is a master at informal chat among friends, and his jokes are both smart and funny! The only writer I have come in contact with that may be close to digi-B with regards to realistic everyday banter between characters and witty jokes/quick comebacks is CarbonBlue, in his VN entitled Unleashed.
I have written very few Ratings here, but this one is my favorite game on F95 as of now (Version 01.1).

Hope the updates to this game don't take half a year, that is the only thing i can see killing this game. The content, animation and story are all top tier and rival some of the top 5s on this site. Also love how this is update one and there is already a lot of content. I was waiting for it to end after multiple scenarios just to end up continue playing. 10/10

This game is an outstanding Piece of Work for a first Release.
In my Opinion it will be at the Top 5 in no Time.
The Story - The Grafics - The Animations - its a round Package
If the Dev dont mess up the Story with some weird Turns,
it will be a Masterpiece.

I absorbed every Line of the Story ,and enjoyed every Scene.
Cant wait for Ch2.

Thanks @digi.B for this .

Amazing first release!So much content.The plot,the twist and turns are amazing.Great atmosphere with a music just spot on with everything!The character portray is so amazing you can feel the difference in all the characters.What a blast this is.Everything screams a legend in the making.

It is insane to me that this is the first release. This game is a good hour of well written twists and turns. Normally I would list pros and cons, but I couldn't find any cons. The renders, setting, characters, MC, and the writing are all top tier from the get go. So I honestly don't have anything to say other than give this game a try.

This is only the second time I've ever given a 5 star rating after a first release. Both times I went and joined their Patreon. I hope some of you do too. Developers that make games like this need supported.

Another top tier dev enters the fray.

Artwork, music, composition, writing, story and humor put together to create one hell of a pilot episode. If the dev can keep this level of quality and still update on semi regular basis, they will definitely have lots of success in the future.

Thoroughly enjoyed this opening episode, good story line, good graphics and already dislike the ex already. Characters seem well rounded and believable with a good dash of humour thrown into the mix. Looking forward to the next update to see if the standard is kept up and if so will probably become a patron of this.

Great start, this is gonna be a good one.

Everything has been set up to make a classic. Great art and animation, interesting world, good characters and a goal. The game has promising features for the future that add polish to the already stunning game.

And the humor is actually good, which is rare.

While this VN is still in its early development, its one of the best VN's out there right now.
The renders and models are really good.
The music does a perfect job setting the tone of the experience.
Loving the large amount of different characters, each being so very unique in their own way.
The overall story is very well crafted.

Definitely in my top 5 list.

Good luck and looking forward to your continued creativity.

I just found my new favorite VN. A perfect start in all categories.

Story, Art, Gameplay are all highly polished.

The MC is also very likable and comes across as a multi talented badass who is finally coming to terms with past betrayals.

Great work so far and I am anxiously waiting to enjoy future updates!
