Ren'Py - Being Super [Ch.1 v0.26 Light] [Sandman Games and Art]

I’ve given this game five years of chances, and honestly, it’s been dead for most of that time. At this point, there’s no hope left for it. What once looked like a promising experience has turned into a repetitive, hollow mess that goes absolutely nowhere. There’s no real action, no excitement, no sense of progress—just the same boring cycle over and over again. You log in, do the same pointless tasks, and log out wondering why you even bothered.


The gameplay is just a bunch of BS, constantly going round and round with zero innovation. There has been no meaningful new content in years, and when something “new” does arrive, it feels lazy, rushed, and half-broken. The developers clearly stopped caring a long time ago. Bugs remain unfixed, balance is a joke, and the servers are laggy beyond belief, making even basic gameplay frustrating instead of fun.


What makes this even worse is the fact that the game had great potential. The core idea, the world, and the mechanics could have been amazing if they were actually supported. Instead, that potential was completely wasted. The community has mostly disappeared, matchmaking is empty, and updates feel like empty promises that never deliver.


Overall, this game is a total waste of time. It’s stale, neglected, poorly optimized, and painfully boring. What a pity to see something that could’ve been great turn into such a disappointing failure. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.


JUST GIVE UP, FAM!

Enjoyed the game at first. Then it was reworked with no new content. Each update appears to add nothing to sink your teeth into. I haven't even gooned to this project. Maybe I'll change my review in a few years providing the dev creates an actual game.

I quite liked the game as it came out: interesting story, good characters, nice visuals and i liked the humor. To be fair, it still is all that.
But for all intents and purposes this game is pretty much dead.

Yes, there are still updates, but the game is 4 years old and is in the 3rd or 4th remade version as of now...
The game has currently the same, or even less, content then in the first release...and frankly it's not really better, even after all the attempts.

Add to that, the choice of a light or dark skinned MC, is really a waste.
Make it a white or black MC, no need to crank up your workload with this nonsense.

So yeah, after 4 years i give up on this game...it's just not going anywhere.

Alright, I don't really leave reviews, but here it goes.

I pick games by genre and the upload time (I prefer a longer game, so I look for older games). After I picked, I'll look at the pics and decide.

This game looked perfect. Kinda old (about 4 years old at the time of writing this), looks alright, genre is fine for me.

But heres the thing. Theres nothing in this game. The description says that the story starts after the medical checkup. The game currently ends before entering the checkup. Theres no LI, no H content, nothing of the sort. Oh and also its a VN still.

The only thing saving this from being a zero start, is that maybe in years, it might be good.

For me, this being 4 years old and delivering nothing was a huge letdown. I spent about 6-8hours (I'm not a native, I read slower) and nothing happened other than worldbuilding.

I'm very disapointed, but I wish the best for the dev. He/she started something grand, I hope he/she can deliver, but as of it is now, it's basicly nothing yet.

EDIT: I forgot to mention that salt into injury is that I liked the setup, the theme, the idea. It promised a lot, but delivered nothing yet!

An excellent game in making, I still waiting for it to fget progress to a certain extent to play again.
The design of character are stellar.
The writing is top notch, background and setting is great.
Cons; UI is very buggy (I played dark skin version), , new version content is not visible till now only speculation,

the the world have me intrigued enough that it is a really anticipated title for me

I love this game. The renders, the story, the models, and the various options. I hope the developer is open to creating side stories based on the "what if" principle. Combining individual elements or scenes from the game into a side story would be really exciting.

This game had big plans, it looked promising. You had me... now you lost me... not worth downloading again. Remake/rework, then hide the story behind a paywall only to reveal you changed everything and not in positive ways.

I rarely post this one just has me :sad:

Another Dev found how to earn unlimited money from undone game.. again.

It is announced almost 4 years ago and starting from beginning, again? Dude.. Don’t you have any shame treating people like complete idiots?

Its pretty good. But is still has some issues.

I like the story. Its pretty well written and player choices seem to actually impact the story. The rpg tag is well deserved.

The girls are very pretty and all have their unique characters and i like idea of the moral system.

But the game and story arent perfect.

Story:
Sometimes the character reactions and choices make no sense.
Exemple: One time you visit the Farmer Hudson that has 100 moral who beats up some robots. If you try to calm him down he gets mad. Understandable. If you help him you get a villain point but he will like it.
That makes no sense. His morality is 100. Why would he like you doing something that is considered villainous?

Then there is the whole situation with Victoria. How does it make sense that both Ruby and Hudson hate on her because of what HER father did in the same breath as telling MC that what HIS fathers did doesn't define him?

Scenes:
The animations are constantly clipping the movements in sex scenes are anything but smooth. Its especially distracting in HJ scenes. I want to concentrate on the girl in action but MC's constantly clipping dick is extremely distracting.

Gameplay:
The gallary for example needs to be added pronto. In a game with so many branching story lines you will lose the overview of what you played and what not so actually seeing what you need to unlock and on which path will be very useful. I like to use galleries like a progress bar in these kind of branching games.

But all in all i enjoyed my time.

8/10

You looking for a game with a great Landlady? You found it.
Harem full of gorgeaous models? Check.
Branching storylines, with Good and Evil alignments? Look no further.
Ripped protagonist with a giant cock to trigger that sweet sweet power fantasy? Yessssire.

If I had to find a nit-pick, it's that the textures of the renders are maybe a bit mid? But, seriously, that doesn't matter.

P.S.: We see a Kage-Bunshin-Style One-Man-Gangbang on the Landlady on the horizon. Dev, don't fuck this up!

very interesting game! chatted with the developer through their deviantart and they were very kind, gave many inputs for their future updates. Would definitely buy this game when it comes out on steam. Much love to this game hope to see it to its best. Looking forward to playing the original sandbox version. Walkthrough helped a lot. lots of secrets.

Story is decent at best, but the dialogue is terrible. It's like it was written by someone who's never heard real people speak before and it makes the game totally unplayable. Plus adding the ability to change the relationship with mom and sister but, it doesn't affect anything, the MC just calls the mom by her name.

Yet another VN with females who have oversized boobs and butts and an MC with a penis that is comical in size. Tropes that are worn and thread bare. Most of the females have cookie cutter figures with very little variety. Not the best look. I'm also not a fan of the moving and shaking camera.

The writing is so-so but on the whole this comes off as some kind of parody often though it's not tagged as one. It would have been better if it were played a little straighter. I also ended up turning off the sound because the constant sighing of the MC became annoying.

The biggest issue with this release is it was almost unplayable due to all the exceptions which leads me to believe it wasn't tested at all before release.

Not one I would recommend.

I had some really interesting moments that kept me hooked throughout my playthrough. I enjoyed exploring how each of the characters and not just the main guy connected with different people, even though there wasn't an option for gay relationships. I'm sure it will be added since you can rise the guys' relationship like you can with the women. It is satisfying to navigate the ups and downs with women but if you do something bad, I wish the consequences were slightly longer. Sometimes a scene can abruptly end, i figured this was because of it being a sandbox. I want this fixed.

more unsolicited advice, i don't like the way the game handles cheating. if you romance a girl it just blocks the sexy scenes with the other girls instead of giving consequences. I hope this gets corrected in the future. I dug into the code and there are different dialogues but they are not implemented into the game for some reason. Hopefully the dev has this planned and is just waiting for whavever reason. romance and harem are two separate options in this game.

in terms of the core gameplay its more of an RPG than a VN, hence the 5*, i need more games that give you meaningful choices with consequences. The most branching options and replayability that I've ever seen in an AVN. The story is okay but it hasn't really kicked off yet. the only explanation I have is that the dev team is a one man team. they need to get more people on board otherwise tis game will disappear into a f95 black hole!

You can choose the skin colour of your guy, if this had a proper character creator, it would have been perfect but it's still a renpy game tbh.

there are 20+ superpowers that you can unlock via exp points you unlock for achievements and the way you play the game. like using superpowers and speech checks. the speech checks are really funny and i recommend you play this game for some of the crazy shit you can say lmao.

I only found this game through Deviantart, when I saw the ruby MILF! I'm usually pretty meh on superheroes and avoid school slice-of-life games like the plague, but this one is fantastic enough that I'd give it a solid 4.5 out of 5. For what it is—a bonkers superhero/sci-fi slice-of-life game—it’s very good.

5/5 Gameplay
The sex scenes are great, with lots of angles and animations. You can even refuse to romance the girls, so nothing feels forced. You can go full harem or stick with just one girl, which is nice. Outside of the porn, it's a weird but good visual novel. The superpower unlocks and dialogue options for jokes and flirts are hilarious, even if some of the options feel a bit repetitive. The intelligence options, especially early on, are kinda dumb and autistic, but the game doesn’t take itself seriously, so it’s whatever. There's the usual good vs. villain path, but honestly, there’s so much going on mechanic-wise that it’s hard to explain it all.

4.5/5 Art
I love the art style, especially the facial expressions and costumes. The animations can be hit or miss, but when they hit, they’re really nice! The lighting and textures highlight how erotic and sensual the game can be at its peaks.

4/5 Story
The characters are seriously so good. I can't stop thinking about them. They each have their own motivations and personalities, and depending on how you play, you can have totally different experiences with them. This game is made for multiple playthroughs. Some characters might even be locked forever if you don’t play your cards right. The accents some characters have are slightly annoying, but if it adds to their personality, then fine. The actual story seems to be in its early days, so I’ll probably come back and redo this review once more updates are out. It has some x-men in which i didn't even realize until i saw the black guy with the black balls around him.

I have listed some interesting things below that dont fit the categories above:

• You can play as a black or a white guy. I was like what the fuck does “dark” mean?! Lmao
• It has minigames which are not annoying, however I wish I had the option to remove them! Dev, you’ll never fucking read this but please give us the option to skip the minigames but still get the rewards.
• You can approach a lot of situations in 4 PLUS ways most of the time which is great but maybe a little toooo overkill?
• If you love MILFS! You’ll like this!

Feels like I'm playing Idiocracy the game — everyone in the game is incredibly stupid, the dialog is awful, it feels like some kind of attempted humor? Hope you love enormous tits and asses, as well as terrible sex animations. The idea of an AVN with a MC with superpowers seemed interesting but this doesn't work for me, YMMV if you've hit yourself in the head numerous times.

This game offers very little beyond it's concept The story is paper thin the characters are boring it barely engages with it's own concept and it's not funny enough to compensate.

The Story:
The story basically doesn't exist, There is a prologue where plot points happen your life changes you gain superpowers yadda yadda and then... nothing.
Literally nothing of note happens for the entire rest of the game you just go to the store and hang out at the farm . 1/5

The Characters:
Appearance: Above average but nothing special in most cases 4/5
Character: The writing for the characters was alright but then it quickly turned into wow your sister and mother want to fuck you for no reason. Boring
1/5

The Game:
The game has 2 paths that are pretty much the exact same and dialogue choices can change which girls you sleep with but it's very poorly explained and displayed so you will be checking the stats page constantly

How the superpowers work in this game is genuinely garbage, the games primary plot point is having and gaining superpowers but they add nothing to the game. They are acquired by making small talk and they do the exact same thing as the social stats they could be entirely removed from the game and nothing changes 1/5

The Dialogue:
The writing is generally absurd and unbelievable you literally cannot act like a sane human and everybody will responds to the deranged shit you constantly spew as if it's completely reasonable or charming you can go up to a woman you just met say "WOW WANNA SEE MY BIG COCK" and she will be like haha so funny! It's pretty dumb and makes none of the characters feel remotely real. It's also generally not very funny

The dialogue is often split into a system of joke/flirt/smart the joke and flirt options are trash, flirt = sexual harassment, joke = boring. But the smart options were the most insane out of place factoids that you would need to be very autistic to think appropriate to say and it entertained me deeply thinking the dev thought this was how smart people behave.

At least the dev can speak fluent English and understand sentence structure. 3/5

THE SEX:
The sex scenes are short, lack setup and have barely any writing in them, most of them end up being not very hot or entertaining. At least the models look good naked. 2/5


Overall the game had a fine start with decent worldbuilding and story but the characters are all basic, the story goes literally nowhere past the prologue, the superpowers are pointless and it seems like the dev is only interested in adding more boring sex scenes instead of improving any of the problems. It's been 3 years but the game still feels like a first release

2/5

A fundamentally great game that does a few things much better than the average porn game. But not perfect at all. Giving it 5 stars because the girls are fucking hot and desirable. There's few games out there that get the girls so right in terms of face and body type.

I wish it had more sex/foreplay animations because the ones it does have are A fucking plus! Best I've ever seen in a VN. The dev understands how to frame and animate women so they're actually sexy.

Story is unremarkable. But it doesn't drag on a lot, there isn't much boring exposition that makes you want to skip etc. I would say it is just interesting enough that I didn't ignore it. For a porn game, this is fine.

The game lets you play as a dark skinned MC which I loved and makes it somewhat unique. More games should you let you do this.

Regarding cons, there is no real gameplay. The flirt/joke/intellect checks are only there as a joke. The flirting is criminally, atrociously bad, the jokes are even worse and the intellect checks make you sound autistic. I wish it were a little better because all of that does break immersion a bit. But in the context of what the game gets right, you should probably look past that.

When I first dove into this game, I was unsure of what to expect. Was it a visual novel or a sandbox adventure? As it turns out, it leans more towards the VN side of things, although it does offer some minigames and the ability to unlock superpowers and skills, which is a delightful twist. Kudos to the developers for their creativity – it's a breath of fresh air in a genre that often sticks to the norm. In fact, I'd go as far as to say it's the best superhero game available on this dang website.

The overall vibe and atmosphere of this VN are incredibly enjoyable. Visually stunning and featuring a cast of gorgeous characters, it's a feast for the eyes. I've found myself bursting into laughter countless times at the absurd speech checks, but the game also manages to pull off some poignant moments without taking itself too seriously – a balance that I truly appreciate.

As someone who typically dislikes Ren'Py games, I must say that this one pleasantly surprised me with its variety of gameplay mechanics. I played through without any mods, opting for the dark skin version, and was pleased to discover the option to play as either a black or white character.

Additionally, the music and sound effects further enhance the immersive experience. And let's not forget about the game's replay value – it's practically endless, ensuring that you'll keep coming back for more adventures. Updates however do take the piss.

Went back to this game after a few years to see how far it had come. Although it looks and plays quite nice, after 4 hours the road ended and that is really disappointing considering it's been worked on for quite a while now. If you not just want to try a game for a minute maybe wait a couple more years before you play this one.
