Ren'Py - Broken Sky [v0.1] [Wistala]

Written for 0.1 (subject to change)

Pros

• Decent grammar
• Fairly well-paced introduction
• Interesting array of characters, so far
• Subtle but notable world-building

Cons

• Non-central characters are written as throwaway npcs.
• Key scenes are slightly generic
• World-building conflicts with character writing.
• Character development/relationship choices feel railroaded.

============

I've made a post in the thread (click here to see) going over the details of the cons, but honestly, I don't expect most peeps to notice such details, or even consider them flaws. Could easily be argued they're my own personal gripes.

I'm honestly tempted to give this intro a 5/5 rating, but I do feel the writing to be strangely vanilla, mainly because of the clash between trying to give nuance to the world, but not to the MC (or random npcs).

Good luck to the dev(s), there's promise with this.

Interesting premise and setting. H-scenes are pretty good so far. You can choose to be a dom or sub so it'll change some how the h-scenes are played out. Hoping to see if choices are meaningful and story branches in future updates. The game (so far) does punish you for making bad decisions, either showing you the results of your decisions then leading to a game over or giving you "corruption" so that is nice.

Currently (V 0.1) the game ends off by introducing you to the more open parts, indicating that you will be allowed to choose how you spend your time as the game progresses - talking to different people and exploring different parts of the city.

Looking forward to the next update!

Awesome, first time playing and the story already got me hooked. One of the better written games out there ill be frank.

No cap, some of the loveliest art assets out there. Hope this project sees through to the end.

Also, really really really hot

Story - 9/10

I don't like taking porn games too seriously as this is more of a hobby to me, something to do on a boring weekend night, however, the writing on this game and the storytelling really hits hard, I went to work the day after playing for an hour or so and couldn't stop thinking about what was coming next, the sex scenes feel just like a bonus at this point. The story doesn't have much branching right now, but the game is still in early development.

Art - 9/10

The character design is really good, facial expressions are top notch, but the characters could have a few more poses to express themselves and there could be some model interactions to help provide more immersion (e.g. when Wistala pats Lilly on the head), I hope this at least gets on the post-release roadmap so the game could have a more polished feel. Loved the cyberpunkish theme.

Scenes - 8/10

Scenes unfortunately are not animated, but the great art and excellent writing saves it, the sub and dom options are really well implemented, would be nice if the regular person route gave you the option to submit or try being dominant on the spot (although in a lower intensity then perma sub or perma dom). I really liked the extra touch and character interactions pre and post scene, it isn't the standard "they cum, instantly get cleaned and go on with their lives".

Gameplay - VN/10

It's a VN, you click and choose options. The best feature I can commend so far is the preference toggles, I can't express enough how much I hate seeing a game with jaw-dropping art and it be NTR only or having unavoidable NTR.

This game has the potential to become a masterpiece. I give my best wishes to the dev and I hope it gets completed one day. I would subscribe to the patreon if I could.

Story 10/10 dark story with slavery ntr and harsh reality ,a breath of fresh air really,there is also some time travel which is my favorite genre since playing steins gate vn

Art 10/10 I am a furry vn fan so iam bias and I like the characters designs for wistala and Lily and the black friend and also the other female characters like shoshi and others I won't mention,thanks

Lis 10/10 some like lily make my heart flutter but wistala makes me angry
Great writing for lis and can't wait for more content for other girls,there is also some great furry characters who I think will make great lis

Content 10/10 a lot for amount of time in development
The flavours are harem,ntr ,sharing,romance ,cuckoid ,extreme content ,I think netori too is planned etc

Love game can't wait for more a 10/10 in my book

One of the best I've played so far! Keep up the hard work Wistala! It can be difficult at times but never give up! The hopes are high for this one. This is incredibly promising and I can't wait for the release!

At the time of this review being posted the game looks great with interesting characters, different choices to make and exciting story to witness. Heavy decision making focus is quite ambitious and I wish it will be there. Very promising project.

Storytelling is very good and a great change from other games here. Characters are well written, and you already have some choices to make. Artwork is also nice, hope for more animation in the future, so one star less for now.

So I slept on this game for awhile because I kept waiting for content, I guess I should have slept a little longer.
None the less I gave it a shot and everything so far I like, A LOT! I found myself actually reading all the story, dev created a fun interesting world with a splash of mystery and some great characters.
Probably helps that this aligns with all my kinks and while I wish there was MORE, the options alone tells me that this game will go exactly where I want it to. Plus it's nice not being treated like a piece of shit just because you like to please in bed and prefer someone to tell you what to do, which is surprisingly rare in femdom games.
Keep up the great work, I'm excited for the future.

I really like it so far especially when Tala got the AI installed and she was a cute little drunkie when she woke up and um maybe add a pregnancy function sometime in the near future maybe some more screen time with Wistala and some more tentical action

Amazing game still has me cumming back every day art is very well made, dialogue is well thought out, the sex scenes are very fun, and the characters know just how to pull at the heart strings, over all the game is amazing

I fucking H A T E this piece of shit game's Marvel tier dialogue and it makes my autism sperg up in ways I haven't experienced in months.
That said, good and plenty art, don't particularly remember the bgm (and that's a positive for a porn game), interesting fetishes, seemingly lots of (at least planned) ways for player expression, and whatever else there is. Even the first point I brought up about the dialogue can be seen as a good thing, since the dev knows not to spend an eternity on crafting the Game of Thrones of porn games.
I also appreciate that the dev doesn't seem to be "that" overly ambitious, though it's hard to tell this early on. There is lots of planned routes, but they seem to focus on just one for now, so it would be better to view the other starting options yet to be implemented as DLC. I just pray they won't overengineer this diamond in the rough into a barely functioning pile of shit just to make the player stat system feel relevant or something like that. Probably worth checking out every year or so.

I just can't get over the fact that Oliver's artwork is constantly giving me "fuck me" eyes.

Definitely a fun game with already a few, fairly frequent updates from the author. It has the potential to go pretty far, if it continues the way it has.

+ Good kinks
+ Good Art
+Good Story

- Currently none that I can think of, other than perhaps an absolutely out of nowhere sex call with your boss. But that's just preference and the author gives you the option to avoid it, just like just about all other scenes, which I appreciate (So that's a plus in a minus)

An absolute gem of a game. An absolute goldmine if you like furry content that isn't strictly gay and you have a wide range of kinks. To top it off, there's great writing, an interesting world and really fun characters.

Lots of games tend to be too vanilla for my liking. If you are unsure, still, give it a try and at least stay for the story writing.

It's still in the early stages and there's not too much content yet but overall, I highly recommend giving it a try. If the tags interest you, this game is one hundred percent worth your time.

Fun Dev~
The server is awesome and the community is thriving! I have made so many new friends and expressed my self much more than I could have without. The constant updates give me something to look forward to as the days grind forward 10/10 would recommend.

Great Art Great Music cant wait to see how it blossoms! lots of possible choice even if not yet implemented varied dialog for dom and sub which is a nice touch. can wait till the anthro character is added to the game to start with!

It is good art and style. Furry game not about gays? It is not often in our days and i appreciate this. As bonus in this really young project i have the gallery which is nice.
I definitely will follow this project.

I love the art, the characters, and that there's actually something going on in the background of the story.

Also, being able to be subby af pleases me, but the reverse option is also present for those who are differently inclined.

Fun furry game with a wide variety of kinks. Plot/story is engaging enough to maintain interest in the characters and what will happen to them. Character diversity and the cast is also wide. Scenes ae hot, and what seems to be planned for the game looks promising. A simple and exciting game vn!

I really like this game very much. Becoming meal of the beautiful girl is such a good feeling. I am looking for more games like it. Content is very less in this mater piece. This game is mind blowing ,
