VN - Ren'Py - Eternum [v0.8.5 Public] [Caribdis]

Exclaimer; this is about version 0.1

Having played Caribdis' other game Oialt before, this style and the writing obviously already synced with me, still for those that haven't and in general:

+The models look amazing again, even better since he used HS2, and clearly has more experience
+The women clearly have a well-rounded personality and style, and are likable in their own way
+The backgrounds are beautiful and varied, it simply looks amazing
+Clever and funny usage of movie/game-inspired montages +The MC looks good
+Consistent story-telling +Great usage of sound effects and music
+Interesting and unique (for adult games) premise and plotlines
+Enjoyable humor again (if you didn't like it in Oialt, you probably won't like it here of course)

There is one sex scene, but not yet with the 'main girls', so can't really judge that yet, except that the non-main girl scene was good.

It's safe to say that I'm really looking forward to more of this game and developer.

Well, it's a game from carib and wow he truly is unable to make bad games, narrative, story, writing, art, humor, literally everything is on point.

The game perfectly nails the balance between making jokes and not taking itself seriously and taking itself seriously, it was one of the reasons I loved once in a lifetime in the first place, its funny to read through, makes you laugh yet doesn't fail to make you engaged with the story and leaving you wanting more.

The characters are unique and feel like they have their own personalities, there is already groundwork set up for who will be your rivals and who will be by your side, there are still the typical "mc has big dick" "mom who hasn't had sex in a long time" tropes but I actually really like that they still exist, you know what they say, if something ain't broke, don't fix it.

The entire story has a unique and complex futuristic structure while still not feeling straight up sci-fi, knowing that technology like this may exist in the future, it's something I found personally really intriguing.

It doesn't fail to keep up the humorous tones that the first game was known for, which is something I was personally slightly worrying about, the dev knows what type of game this is and doesn't keep the game fully serious all the time, although just enough to have you actually caring about the characters and story.

All in all, easy (and I mean easy) 5/5 from me, might support the developer myself.

You really outdid yourself man, I mean it

*0.4
This is the best VN on this website. Having played and very much enjoyed Caribdis last game, my expectations were sky high with this one but that ceiling was blown up the instant i started playing 0.1. Every update has upped its predecessor and the game is well on its way to become the new king of F95. Eternum's quality is like none other with renders, writing, characters and amount of content. In 0.4, there is a section with some pretty fucking great voice acting and if we get some more of that in the future, nothing else will come close. Definitely a must play.

P.S If you only want to support 1 dev on patreon, this is who.

A really strong start to a new game. The story is a perfect blend of funny and serious and the conspiracies got me hooked right away. All the characters are unique and ladies hot which is making it difficult for me to choose the best girl just yet. The renders are true eye candy and the animations really bring the scenes and characters alive. Music and sound effects are spot on too.

If you liked Caribdis previous game "Once in a lifetime" I guarantee you will love this one too. If you haven't tried that yet I recommend checking it out too.

i started playing Oialt around the 0.8 update and loved it instantly, became a supporter shortly after, was looking forward to eternum for a while now and it definately delivered for a 0.1 build

graphics are amazing
music choice is pitch perfect
the humour is 15/10 i had plenty of moments where i couldnt stop laughing
the girls look amazing
and the story also draws you in so far, it creates enough setting for wanting more

and im really curious and looking forward to the further updates
10/10 would play and support agian
(written for the 0.1 release)

Good start to a promising game.
- Great humor
- Excellent use of sound and music (play with headphones)
- A variety of characters, LIs and other NPCs
- Main character has some personality
- Lots of content for a 0.1
- Plenty of story to the game already
- Renders are fantastic

I highly recommend Eternum, even at this early stage, the dev is really hitting his stride. The lessons learned in OiaLT are really paying off in the renders, use of music and sound, story telling, and coding. I personally can't wait to see where this goes, too. BTW, Con and Xet are morons.
