VN Ren'Py Abandoned Bitch Squad [v0.4.7] [IcarusLabs]

[xXwankerXx]

I can't take another beta mc game.

I wholeheartedly agree. Never understood why some devs seem to have a raging hard-on for this bullshit cliché, but it's gotta stop, or they should at least give us the possibility to make him a confident dude with a dick in his pants who gets his sweet payback and keep him a wimp for the players who like that kinda MC, coz given the title of the game, I wouldn't surprised to see hardcore femdom or sissyfication on the menu.

At this point I'm starting to think that all devs suffered bullying in their student years, almost all games always use the typical Mc, loser, creep (I don't know if it's the case in this one, but it seems from the images haha)

That seems like a good theory, and making wimpy MCs with 0 social skills and self-esteem is probably their way of sharing the pain lol. But yeah, I'mma give it a speedrun just for the laughs to see if there's any potential, delete it, and only play it again when that wimp will finally man up, put some muscles on his skinny arms, and put the bitches and the 'bullies' in their place. If he won't, it's a permanent ignore from me. Fuck all that submissive lil bitch BS, I'm not into that.

do you guys think a loser mc or a ultra chad mc would have hundreds of posts on a porn game piracy forum over multiple years?

You make a good point. Maybe that's the dev's intention, but he should make it clear how he wants his own story to play out. No not-so-surprising unavoidable NTR and no sudden Ultra Instict MC if he wants his MC to be a submissive lil fag. Jokes and playful trolling aside, it's the dev's story, he should tell it how he thinks it's best, BUT he should be upfront and honest about his true intentions. That way, ppl will know what they getting themselves into if they decide to play the game and/or support the developer.

Yes of course. I don't get the question. A loser MC annoys. And when people are annoyed, they complain. And to complain, they post hundreds of pages in a free Forum. The amount of pages for a project doesn't equal success.

The amount of games who have simply bad MCs is astonishing high. And yes, that's annoying me.
Seriously, I don't get who wants to play loser MCs.

Here's to hoping the dev isn't planning on adding lesbian/cuckoldry.

Reading some of the devs responses this could turn out good, currently tho we have a kinetic novel with wimp mc and a forced cardgame minigame wich I got to and just went wait seriously? And quit but the renders are good and there is potential for satisfying revenge so worth having a look at in the future.

Since this is early on, I decided not to review the game, because I am overly negative about it. I'll leave a warning here under spoilers, though, for those interested. It's perhaps too verbose and detailed, you guys are warned.

I think they doing it for the Arc. They think an MC has to evolve into something. That's exciting for them. In theory, that could be right. The Problem is that it takes ages to do so. And in that time half of the LI are burned because we never get the revenge which they deserve.

Think of Big Cities pleasure. The Dev said we get our revenge on Cooper in 2018. That was 4 years ago. Nothing happened since then.

But I will give this game a go. I am ready for a good revenge story. The premise is interesting. We will see how this turns out.

... submission, ...

This tag makes me nervous, I hope "submission" is planned for the LIs.

Question to IcarusLabs : How much time did you plan for the Updates?

 

[paust.alex]

It could all end with the MC being the embodiment of a Godlike force whose arrival on Earth has long been foretold, and the rich bitches are the heiresses of an ancient cult or order that awaits his arrival. The whole meaning of their existence is to preserve their purity and virginity in order to give it to the MC and conceive a child from him. In the meantime they are testing him and forging his character, or just taking out their frustration on him for not noticing the obvious fact that they all want him.

 

[Mareeeeta]

Interesting start. Ok I don't like Beta MC, but he is willing to change his position and it makes an interesting revenge story because it's not only one but five girls.
And two seems evil (Charlotte&Emma), but I think Kate will be more nuanced, Sarah is kind we've just see that. And the step-sis just don't want to see the truth but I think she understands it. With this ending Sarah and Annie have to talk with him and I don't know what they will say but It's already interesting. It would be cool if Sarah made her opinion about being a friend with him even if the others are bully. But she admires Kate so I don't know.

There is for all of them good possibilities. I don't think it will be boring and I see a great potential in some girls.

IcarusLabs I know it's early to ask that when you just have release a 0.1, but do you know approximatively when you will release the next update ? Like it will be short (1-2 month) or long (5-6 or even more ?)
The ending let me want to know how the mc will engage the counter-offensive !

Good luck for the game.

In my mind, the MC can't start with it all figured out. He needs to go on a journey as well. I see it as him just starting to pick himself up and begin pushing back with a lot of road still ahead of him.

And submission is not planned for the MC.

Thanks for playing. I appreciate the honest (harsh?) feedback. I will keep your thoughts in mind and maybe in the future you will be pleasantly surprised. I'll try to get better with every release!

Thanks for the feedback! I really appreciate it.

I am hoping to get releases out every two to three months, quicker if I can get some support on Patreon for better equipment. Renders take awhile

For comparison, this was my first attempt at ever doing anything like this. So there was a big learning curve, but it took 5 months. Knowing what I know now, I could definitely do it in under two.

Will pregnancy be a feature?

I totally agree. And I guess I'll wait till more content defines this story, and when the dev releases the future tag info.

I also REALLY hate playing sub wimpy MC's (and that 50's hair style, ), I'd prefer to see the story show a changed MC that happened over the previous summer. Most prefer playing a hero and not a sub-zero.

Is there going to be a harem?

Hey! sub zero is cool

 

[Old Man Al]

Good stuff.
I like the girls - even some from the bitch squad. Amber and Ashley are my favourites until now.
Various personalities are always good. The conversations are really good and the english without flaws (as much as I as a non native english speaker can tell).
Maybe sprinkle some more choices in there.
I found the card game well made. But the dev should make it skipable, I guess (from what I read here) it is not for everyone.
This is also pretty long for a first episode. I will keep an eye on that for sure.

But beware - this is more for the story than a quick fap (though there is a bj in there). For that go elsewhere.

 

[killer 13]

5 out of 10 games released are about school environment, still I wish the developer good luck

I think it was worded very harshly. I wasn't writing it for a review, so I was quite loose with the tone. I feel I should apologize for that, really sorry.

If we get some actual choices (I believe those are planned), an actually intriguing mystery (too hard to tell at this point), or some really good writing to redeem the characters, the game would improve by leaps and bounds.

If we pretend this was a closed beta and I was asked what are the easiest things to improve on, I'd suggest you to really trim down the chapter overall, or at least add some meaningful choices to it to improve the pacing and the involvement for the players. Also, I'd tell you to speed up the card game, if you want to keep it (like, cutting the deck in half, AND speeding up all animations).

You're shocked to find that members of this same girls group have started attending your new school as well. You and your friends attempt to stop them this time and prevent their rise to power, if you can.

MC's schoolmate: "If you can't beat them, join them."

College settings, whorish students, revenge... How about a badass MC in the vein of JASON...

That's what I thought. Look, I can see that spark in him. I liked his spin as he defends Amber. He needs some Victories (real ones). If it takes too long... let's say playing a loser's journey was never fun in an erotic game.

I like your writing so far. Some facial expressions feeling uncanny(Sarah) by overall good renders. This can become good.
