VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Freeloading Family [v0.32] [FFCreations]

[Rev v0.10]
Content amount is good. Not being another Patreon milk scam is always worth bonus stars.

Art's good; *mostly* avoids the uncanny valley. Two gripes here are Leah's hair and dear god the MC's penis. His dick looks like a bratwurst; distracting me from porn via Pavlovian urges to grill and chop things puts me in entirely the wrong headspace.

I really like where the author's going with the story. Poly relationships are my insta-win button.

<minor gripe>Towards the end of the 0.10 content the MC calls Melody by his petname for Leah; once in the hallway and again outside work.</gripe>

TLDR: I dig it, thread watched, look forward to more in the future.

i was keeping an eye on this one for a few months, but decided to finally play it.
renders are good quality, not the best but they are good. i wish they we just more of them, i dont know how much images dev has per update but they are definitely not as many as the big guys. of course they make anything from 5k to 40k a month. this guy currently has less than 700$ a month. and its not too bad but i just noticed it.
the story is good aswell, its pretty different from your usual "MC corrupts every girl with his 30cm magical dick" altough this happens here too, its done differently, kinda more natural and realistic (as much as it can be for a "porn game) characters are not brainless bimbos, craving dick because they saw it, they have peronalities and are well written (not acting lessons good, but still good) i get twists of my life vibe from the plot. the sis seems to be attracted to MC from day one altough not showing it immediatly, you can see it. it gets bonus points from being different from the other games where character goes from hating the MC to loving him in 20 secs flat. the pacing can be kinda "off" i dont know how to describe it, but again its not a big deal.

what i like most about it is that the choices matter, and they dont punnish you for choosing whatever you want. the game will have something to show you depending on YOUR choices. BUT its not THAT choice heavy and it is fairly linear at times. the main plot (i guess it is) cant really be changed (at least until now i think) just reactions and dialogue will be different.

havent followed the dev and this thread, so i dont know how often and how much content he has per update but for the game i rate it 4/5 def worth playing.

wow! just wow!! nice story little bit different than other insect story, and personally really like it.
as for character, i'm impressed. art is pretty good actually, but it would've been better if there is more expression form each character. Nice sync with boos and ass with body. they're not too big (like hour glass) /small, in my eyes, i think they've got nice perfect figure compare to reality.
As for story i'd say keep going as it is now.
Overall, i've loved it. hope to get more excitement on future updates,,,, Cheers!

One of my favorite games in this forum. Very well written story and nice images. Different characters which all have their own unique aspects. In my opinion its one of the best games in this specific genre.

As of v0.9,
Came for the faps stayed for the story.
I believe this is the best thing you can say about an adult game.This one has a nice balance of story,comedy,memes,heck-alot of references and jokes that never landed.I'd say its a pretty medium game as it took me like ~5 hours of chill reading.(Didnt feel like speedrunning it cuz the story felt nice).In addition it also has a small replayability value because you can replay it with a diffirent route.It has nice visuals,good renders,the models are nice but as most other games lacks in animation(the scenes are there but i think 98% of the crowd would love animations).
I hope this one does well and i'd pledge if i had money to spare.Bye

Beatiful Story, stunning Looks. It may take your fantasy and imagination quicker then youd expect. Just too short ;P but longer than most games rn. Excellent straight forward Story writing. 2 different Ways to experience the great written Story. The game has one of the best looking models and rendering too. to be honest this is a little gem that has to be found, when its fully done it may be one of the best if not best taboo/romance/adult game. If you are frustrated with the current overflow of bad Quality try this.

This game has a very well written story, which is not common among games of this model. Each of the characters were unique even if they were a bit stereo-typical. And the renders are fabulous, one of the best all around that I have seen. If I have any criticism, it is that it is a bit simple, but these types of games are not meant to be challenging, but sexy fun. I thoroughly enjoy this so far ( at 0.8) and look forward to future updates.

The writing in this game is on the same level as a parody porn movie, which means it is laughably bad, it gets better later on though.
At the start of the game the characters come across as pretty schizophrenic nymphomaniacs (who do look pretty though)
Graphically it all looks good, but if you want more from your porn game, like a bit of story or game play, this one does not qualify for that.
the choices, if you can call it that, are more about the way the writing plays out: either you are dominant in your sexual conquest or submissive , letting the women/girls take the reigns. Either way, the accompanying renders stay almost always the exact same. Which can lead to some weird situations, for example: When you choose to be submissive, the game might play out like a girl is only moderately gagging on your cock while you hold her head down...wtf?
The laziness of the dev to make multiple paths (beyond the writing) is really hurting the believable of the MC and characters in game, which are weak to begin with. But if you are just in it for big asses and tits, you could do a lot worse then this game.

Just finished current version, I enjoyed the story,the characters soo hot ......the designer of the game is very good even and very exciting the girls are very hot and whores the teacher without panties that crazy soo cool i like tho see more much more thx for lts us play this wonderful game

Story is kind of ok, but a cliché.
Characters are ok also,but the horny teacher and the easy sister are not believable.
Some more background story would have been nice on the characters.
Gameplay is ok,i'm looking forward for the new updates. I kind of interested how things will go with the step-sister.
There are not much H-scenes yet, but it's getting there.
Graphics are nice, the model of the sister is absolutely beautiful and sexy.

I liked the game, waiting for updates.

This game is good so far the story needs a little work and needs some sex scenes soon the lacking of sex and the feeling of the MC not getting the girl/s he wants is a drag.

Edited as of May 21
this game has major save issues i suggest you wait for it to be completed since every update you need to start over.

Art 8.5/10
Sex 6.5/10
Characters 8/10
Story 7.5/10

Can't say anything about the story, but character texture is amazing.UI of the game is not good either but the important thing is, atleast for me graphics.Because it is not something you can improve much.

I am really enjoying this game more and more each month. Though there are many who find issues with parts of the story, I think it is being told wonderfully and the entire dev team for this project is incredible. FFCreations' renders are in the top 5 for games on this entire site, in my opinion. VALaurie's story is engaging and well written. I do wish that the updates were a bit longer, but only because I think that this game really encompasses the meaning of a Visual Novel. The story aspect is just as strong as the graphics.

It started nice, it had potential but on the way this game dropped in to mediocrity . The visuals are good, sister is one of the best looking girls in visual novels universe. 9/10
But the story lacks, is not that great is linear with no real choices even if you are presented with 2 routes erversion and pacifism, the 2nd one is femdon where you are metaphorically castrated and you`re everyone`s bitch . 4/10
characters : sister is inconsistent ,she acts like she is totally in to you but than she goes and fucks Leah and after acts like nothing happen. This should`ve been available only in pacifist route , the player does not have any choice, you can ider stay home or go and meet melody and skip it but ider way is still happening . Teacher dresses like she is in some kinda porno movie , Leah is kind of a dick (pun intended) and with her behaviour she would probably get expelled in any school. The only character which seems some kind of real is Melody. 4/10
overall 17/30

I like the game. For a ren'py game with 3d renders.

First, it has a rather strong dom/sub theme, and I dig that. The characters are also OK, and while generally not that innovative (step-sister, pervert, teacher, bitch), each one has a little spin to them to make them feel at least a bit fresh.

What I object to is the NTR tag. It just isnt there. If anything, the protagonist is stealing a girl away from someone who might feel deeply about that girl, which would basically be netori (which as a rule does not fall under NTR, even though the letters and general theme match).

Graphic 8/10
Story 1/10
Music 0/10
Game mechanic 1/10
GUI 3/10
Overall 13/50
Visual novel with a bad storyline. The dev should overhaul the story and edit the unecessary side plot. Character development is severely lacking. 3D Models are very good. No music or sound yet. Overall in version 0.5 It is a demo at most. With the lack of solid story foundation,.. I am not sure about the future.

great game,funny and erotic,much better than i expected and i believe with more support this game can be huge. render are excellent and characters are perfect. still early in the game but how the story is progressing looks like its gonna be exciting

This is a game I will keep an eye on. I find the characters to be very attractive (some of the most attractive). I personally find the over-the-top blunt nature of some of the characters to be a little too straight forward, however I do find the relationship with the sister is spot on for my taste.

The author seems to use some character relationships as the fast track to action, and that's not my favorite (teacher namely).

With other characters (the sister namely), he seems to be letting the relationship develop through subtle interactions, which I like a lot. I think this builds toward more climactic situations down the road. Small things like touching side boob, seeing her in panties, and getting caught playing with her phone - these lighter risk/reward scenes are done very well in my opinion, as the author is relying on imagery where other authors tend to use dialogue. A picture is worth a thousand words, and this author speaks my language.

Looking forward to what may come.

The following review is based off my personal experience with playing this Game/Visual Novel... I try to be as brutally honest and detailed as I can, and these are my own opinions and thoughts, from one or more play throughs... The version this review is based on is v0.4...

This visual novel/game gives you a choice to be living with your step sister or just a friend, which is nice they offer that option...

The visuals of the characters are good... The backdrops are decent as well, but it is really hard to believe that the visuals are of a college... They look like grade school or high school pictures, as most colleges do not have lockers lined up in the hallways and don't use small inky dinky desks for their students... So the immersion takes a hit for most of the school backdrops...

The script has pretty good as I didn't run into hardly any spelling/grammar errors... The plot revolves around a male protagonist who lives with either his step sister or a friend (your choice), and attends a local college... His father is a career military guy, but he treats his son like dirt, getting upset when the son doesn't refer to him as sir this and sir that all the time, which is a bit overboard... The story basically follows the protagonist as he goes to college and builds relationships with different characters...

Again, the believability of some of the college student characters is a huge stretch... First you have a college professor who dresses in a slutty shirt, which is over the top, as most colleges have dress codes for teachers, and showing that much cleavage is way beyond normal for any female professor...

Secondly, you have a student who has insanely bad attitude, who gets in pissing contests with that same professor... Again way over the top, as that student would have been expelled way before that, as no college student talks to any professor like that and gets away with it for very long... The student who keeps kidding around with the protagonist is slightly believable, but even her personality is a bit much... The only two characters that have any sort of personalities that don't feel out in left field, are the protagonist and his roommate...

Thirdly is the whole paperwork signing thing that the professor gives the protagonist to sign... That is so out there, as everyone knows all paperwork like that would have been handled during registration, and not given out by a classroom professor... If it was a sports coach or something like that, then maybe I could believe it more, but that is not the case...

The story itself, is alright for an erotic visual novel/game, as it is basically the protagonist being presented with options for forming different relationships with all the female characters and/or going after sex with them... There is some hinting at his roommates possible sexual orientation... And that is about it for this current content...

Overall, I have a hard time believing the college situation due to the visuals as well as over the top characters... It ruins the immersion of any scenes involving the college, and those characters... Home life with the step sister/friend I don't mind at all, as either way, they are not blood related, so if they are having love/romantic feelings for one another, I'm all for it... As I'm a sucker for a good love/romance story... Will I revisit this VN/game? Most likely not, unless they can revisit all the college material and make it more believable, with both the characters and the visuals...

Easy to play . Not too much over thinking. Game seems straight forward. Cant wait to see future updates. Love the game play And the characters. Can"t say i would change anything. Hope it keeps updating.
