    Hey man! I have to say, you're doing a great work! The way you structure moral conflicts and corruption as a means of salvation made me very curious about the development of the story and the characters!

    I hope you further deepen the moral dilemmas of the protagonist and how situations lead to darker and more interesting paths!

    Great job man!

    Really beautifull render, a pretty good and interrresting story so far, not much content but hey it's still 0.3 so let's hope it keeps going the good way and let's hope for more games like this one. Good job dev and good luck.

    Bright Lord has a lot of potential. If you read nothing past this line, take the review as a "Definitely worth a try" recommendation!

    The overall render quality is in the upper end of what you tend to see in this style of game and even though there are some technical issues with them, they work well enough to not prevent immersion, if you can get onboard with the body and (especially) the facial proportions.

    The Lighting is functional most of times, though I can't yet give a final verdict on that since at the time of playing my monitor had fucked up brightness and contrast thanks to our eternal friend: Windows. I'll revise this part of the review with the next update.

    The most important part about the renders is that expression, lighting, scene construction and so on significantly improve during the game progression to the point of where, after the earliest scenes, they fit the narrative much better.

    The animations need a lot of work. For now though, I am confident that the issues can be worked out since only one of the animations is really bad and all the games aspects are clearly still in very early stages.

    The relationship plot isn't anything new, but that's neither here nor there. Certainly the Mystery plot beneath it promises more than enough originality for your successful incest -AVN.

    The characters are, while more or less presented in trope typical fashion, similarly well characterized by the dialogue and good starting points for real differentiation and character work. There is a reason why the "older sister --> bitchy sexy girl; mother --> sexually frustrated and feeling lost in life; younger sister--> insecure and innoccent " dynamic is so popular. Not straying from it is perfectly fine. (and honestly, there are only so many ways you can switch this up anyway)

    From a technical aspect, the writing is also decent enough, with some but mostly non-intrusive errors and stylistical blunders here and there that shouldn't stop anyone but the most demanding players from enjoying the game for what it is. Especially with all the engrish games out there.

    All in all, the overall unweighted rating would probably end up being 3.5 Stars, but I'm upgrading that to 4 Stars simply because not only does everything about the game come together well but there is also a lot of improvment noticeable during the progression up to where the game stands right now. I am even tempted to go with 4.5 stars and I will definitely revise the score after the next if not the next two upgrades if the current trajectory holds true but for now I feel it is too early to give out that rating, simply because we are so early in development.

    Excellent setup, and great models. Just enough story to make me want to know more, but really geared towards H-scenes and being a nasty dude. Has quickly become a solid title, and I'm very happy this VN has taken off. Kudos to KissKiss!

    My favorite thing about game is, it gives the feel of domination greatly. The models are great and also story is great too. Progress of the story is just like how it should be. It doesn't gives me much to say, give it a chance. 5/5

    Incredible start for such a new game. All characters and renders look incredible. Story is interesting enough and kinda creepy which is a welcome change from what is usually done. Not a ton in the way of gameplay/choices but that's not a huge drawback. Definitely keep your eyes on this project.

    Them bitches look just like in my dreams :)
    Really now, this is decent story, good pacing, guaranteed to FAP.
    I like that the MC is more bothered by the powers that be, than of fucking his "landgirls". This is what we need, more fighting the bad guys and fucking the beauties.

    A nice game in a unique horror genre, with great renders and an engaging story

    I found this game to be quite enjoyable, for now gameplay is limited with only few Options at the beginning. As I am not a big fan of incest I appreciate the Option to define the relationship yourself, however in some instances the dialogue will still use words like 'mom' etc. this could use a rework.[This has been corrected in more current versions].
    Graphics are very well made, putting it easily in the top 10%of 3dcg games graphic wise, especially making low light renders often result in grainy pictures but this is not the case here. What I will say that the background/scenery could use some more love in some aspects, more details here would be nice, also the shiny art-style of the characters does not always fit with the more grey background.
    The story is nice, characters could still use some depth but the lord of light story arch is very well thought through and nicely executed in terms of writing.
    For now it's really a 4 star game but I will give 5 Stars to support this young game's big potential.

    Gameplay: 3/5 | Renders: 5/5 | Story: 5/5 | Writing: 4/5
    GRADE: 4.3/B+

    Great game, i personally love the horror genre, and i want to see where this story will lead.
    The renders are great, the girls look really well done.
    The animations are really good too, i think this game has a lot of potential, for such a initial realase, already showed its best assets.
    I really like the design of the characthers, especially the sisters.

    Music - decent
    Graphics-good
    Character models-OK
    Character personalities-average, as expected.
    Story line-OK

    Some nice elements which is what brought my interest into the game. However, minor disappointments here and thier I felt, though this is my opinion. Character design are fairly attractive but also bordering on the unrealistic side. H scenes felt weak, not sure how to explain it but like robotic, no real feel of erotic nature to it. More teasing and play would be nice. Its hard, but if the MC is a male, should avoid any facial scenes. Some do not mind, others do and if the face is dislike its very hard to be motivated to play. Disappointed with the mind control thing opportunities, could have done a lot of things with this and feels like a real miss to me.

    This is not a game I will be following, but some will like it no doubt.:p

    Having experienced my fair share of Ren'Py adult VN's of varying quality from frankly unplayable to what almost appears to be professional work, Bright Lord comes right out of the gate with impressive visuals and an intriguing storyline/plot. This rarely happens with a developer's first release, but there is an attention to detail and a desire for high quality that you love to see early on. I definitely recommend playing it and I look forward to the next update!

    Awesome Render
    Awesome girls.
    Looks really realistic.
    I love Chloe alot, She has big boobs too! XD
    Not sure why every game has a mum, i personally skipped it. Do people like mum that much? i just love young girls xD

    Please keep up the great work!
    Sadly you deserve 10 star but i could only give you 5...

    I really like the renders for all the girls, and the central premise of the game isn't groundbreaking but it does check the boxes for some of my favorite tropes. I'm very optimistic about how this game will develop in the future.

    This game has one of the most top-notch renders and characters thus I give this game easily 10/10, can't wait to see more content, also the story is more than any other games in this platform, I absolutely suggest you to play this amazing game!

    As other reviews have mentioned, the model renders are exceptional and easy on the eyes. They're actually what drew me to this game in the first place, namely with the mother

    I will say I'm intrigued by the horror aspect of this game since I'm drawn to anything but that in real life. The concept of a being that exists both in reality and in their mind is interesting although I don't think I would've introduced it as early as it was. Typically, the antagonist is something that's hinted at and not fully introduced until at least several updates in

    The constant overreactions by the family members is a bit much but justified as it's reasonable given each person's disposition. An older sister that feels bitter with her father dying and the MC being away is understandable. A naive little sister that's reconnecting with her brother is going to be excited. And a mother who has to deal with the older sister will need a strong temper in order to maintain order.

    As for the single animation in the game, while I appreciate the fluidity, putting it against a stationary 2D background only makes it awkward. Those animations are best suited in games like Treasure of Nadia or Echoes of Lust where we see characters actually moving. For this game, focus on more on the future sex scene animations then a random walking motion.

    The grammar/punctuation situation is something I'm sure the dev already knows about but yeah. It needs a bit of proofreading and the dialogue is sometimes choppy here and there but nothing that effort/time won't fix, unlike a certain individual in here believes

    All in all, it's a promising game in terms of renders and concept. The writing just needs to be cleaned up a bit and the rest should follow smoothly

    I'm not a fan of the incest genre but I still enjoyed this game. The renders and girls look great. The night scenes are a bit too dark, but it looks like the dev is aware of that and plans to fix it. I also thought the music and sound fit very well. The only real negative I saw was there were quite a few grammatical errors and missing punctuation in places. It seems like English is not the dev's first language. But it was still completely understandable, did not distract from the game, and is easily fixable. Looking forward to seeing more from this game and dev.

    Excellent debut. Very excited on how far Santaras will go with this game. Storyline is intriguing and renders/characters are natural. Should add a cat that roams around the house. Chloe and mother for the win!!

    "BRIGHT LORD DOESN'T SEEM TO BE BRIGHT"
    so prepare for a surprise
    1. A start that is as good as can be albeit too short but i think it has potential and lets see what comes of it hope the dev focus on story cause the models are RAD
    2. Noice renders man Hawt new models like all of them.
    3. Oh yeah noice music nobody uses music until its late into dev but you did good with the music. Still there is always room for improvement youll figure it out.
    4. The only con is the dialogues. You should focus on it to improve it to make it more realistic.

    Don't make it a game where MC just fucks the family out of their mind out of nowhere rather build it up both the story and characters and the family romance should come later than earlier after introducing other characters. What i'm saying save the family for last XD cause its way too corny to just ram them at the start.

    Review of 0.1b

    I am a backer of this project and i can tell the dev knows his problems. Kiss kiss studio just got a new team member who will do the proofreading. He post his work everyday on his patreon, so i think he is commited.

    Cons: well the act 1 passing is really kinda of but he esxplains it like it was just a introduction to bright lord, again the dialogs needs a touch.

    Pros: model are sexy, mother looks young but i dont care i dont like old woman models.
    The idea is nice refreshing. FINALLY I HOPE NO NTR IN THE GAME.

    And lastly i see a dude put two stars because the story is has the same charecters like other games...? Wut? Dude its porn game. There is no new plot in this industry for like two years. I played alot of games in other sites for like 4 years and boys there were really bad ones. :D
    So i dont support 0.1 reviews but i kinda got angry for the 2 star review cuz it will just demotivate the dev and we will see no new content and i want to see more of his work.
    For the 2 star guy:
    Stop searching meaning of life in a porn game. The dev already told is a fuck fuck game not a fucking hollywood movie .
    Enjoy the game i am out!
