VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Bare Witness [Steam Build] [AlterWorlds]

Full disclosure: prefer writing\story enhanced through visuals.

This first chapter (of five planned) is an excellent start to this AVN. Storm (writer side of AW) has really put together a solid story premise that feels fresh and distinct. This is not his first rodeo and it shows. With seven LIs it is no small feet to establish their personalities, motivations, and desires right out of the gate, but Storm as done a great job doing just that. Granted while two are still a bit of a mystery, the others get very good intros and dialog so as not to be looked over. This story looks to have many different paths with the LIs which I personally enjoy so excited to see how it all plays out over the next chapters.

Slockie (visual side of AW) has been putting blood, sweat, and literal tears into his renders over the past few months as we have seen on the AW discord. You can join and see for yourself. He has made tremendous progress in his skills and continues to get better every single day. The LIs, environments, and assets (my god - real food!) are all great and help enhance the telling of the story. Slockie has come a long way in a very short time and can't wait to see Chapter 2's visuals and animations!

Also having music was a great choice!

The AlterWorlds team has come out of the gate with a solid performance for their first AVN and I strongly recommend you give it a try.

This game is a fun experience. Introduction was super good. Renders and girls looks beautiful. Story is quite interesting and engaging. Lewd scenes and animations are arousing. I'm looking forward to new updates in the future.

Awesome renders. That's about it.
MC has no backstory and that makes it really hard to identify with him and without that it's hard to make any connections to the other characters, because sometimes it seems he's lying and how do I know which of my choices are true and meaningful and which aren't.
Seems learning about the mc's story is the goal of the game. I don't like that. And a dean that informs the mc in witsec he's been contacted by the Marshals without the witness knowing about this first is an absolute no-no. He'd be informed that the Marshal is planning to contact the dean first and then that he has contacted him to confirm.
I'm not a fan of cougars so it's good at least I can turn people down.
Played it muted, music to upbeat for my taste.
Again, great renders, which brings this to 3 stars.
Maybe I'll check again when its finished.

If you are reading reviews in order to decide whether you should download Bare Witness, the answer is yes.

You don’t need spoilers in your life.

Go check it out for yourself without anyone skewing your expectations and getting you all hyped.



Ah, you’re back. Slow internet connection, huh?


Alright, out of context spoilers!

Ever play a game with “roommates” and it makes you roll your eyes? You gotta go download the stupid patch and then figure out which patch.rpy to copy from your download folder.

Well, this game has an easy fix for you. They’re really just roommates! Not your sister. And I can confidently tell you that it’s a welcome change of pace.

Don’t confuse incest with taboo. Incest is a form of taboo, sure, but it’s a limited subset of it.
Taboo is when you aren’t supposed to do something and it makes things hotter as a result.

Picture this. You have a cute roommate. You can’t fuck her. If you do, you could destroy your home life. It’s a delicate balance, a potential powder keg that you don’t want to light. You just want to go home to a peaceful house and chill.

You can’t even flirt with her really. If you do, you could humiliate yourself and live forever in awkward hell. She could have her hot friends over and overhear her say "sorry, my creepy roommate is home."

Are you going to sneak into her room and check the tags on her bras to see her cup size? Obviously. Just in case you need to buy her one for her birthday.

But you’re a gentleman.

You wouldn’t fuck things up.

Wait! Was she just flirting with you?


Anyway, the game has great renders, engaging dialogue and all the right ingredients for an interesting story.

And it should be finished downloading now.

Enjoy.

I highly recommend this game
Awesome renders
Awesome girls
Looks really realistic
The story is interesting and well written

This is the first game for me in which MC uses a condom during sex
a big thumbs up

and also dev please add more scenes with Nicole in the next update
You deserve 69 stars but sadly I could only give you 5

Suggestions: can we get a 10 stars rating system for games like this? please ?

The story is yet to be revealed but we can clearly see it's gonna be an interesting game,

we got a lovely cast of possible love interests, each lovely beyind the limits of comprehension. each speaking her unique way.

Renders are a labor of love with attention to details (if you ignore the phone issue)... dat freckled face you just want to kiss....

this game is just lovely

Off to a solid start
Gives you the layout of what to expect in the future and the story has a bit of intriguing aspects
Well written and neatly organized
Great renders with new assets and Hot models that have good amount of details
All in all a pretty enjoyable VN definitely worth it to give it a shot
Definitely has huge potential to be something great
Goodluck dev and keep up the good work.

Great start! I beta tested this game and really loved it. Great writing, very interesting characters (Heidi and Zenda are my favorites), and beautiful renders. Heidi in particular looks amazing.

This first release is just a taste, but there's already some sexy scenes and an intriguing plot set up. Well worth checking out for people who want a good, humorous, and sexy story-based game.

Loved it and looking forward to the next update! ❤
