VN - Ren'Py - Hanawakening [v0.8] [SynonyS]

Really looking forward to the pontential this has, so far it has great models and good scenes, a bit worried about the amount of routes it has but i hope for the best. Hoping the game doesn't go silent like many indi poyects tend to go. Curently supporting the creator on patreon.

One of the best games i ever played in my life, i'd love to see more of the characters, the story is amazing I hope more people will come enjoy this game and get it more popular. I want to be the main character so bad, and her boyfriend too ahah

Review based on v0.6EB:

After finally giving this game a try I can gladly say I have another game put into my following list. All the different routes feel distinct and cater to different groups. You have a hotwife/femdom route, a filthy (or gross) cum dumpster route and a BDSM route a hardcore one at that too. The choices in the game are laid up in a way making them easy to understand on which route each of them will take you. The renders are unique and scenes quite different to just about every other game out here, saw somebody mention he uses Blender so that might be the reason. Characters look good and Hana is quite the treat. H scenes are really good but the animations kind of lack substance but that has never really been a deal breaker for me with these games. Story is nothing thought provoking however has enough going for it making it interesting to follow, also has just about the right amount of humor. But beaware that a lot of the humor is 4th wall breaking stuff so for those of you all about that immersion might be a bit disappointed about that.

A negative might be that you get locked into routes since everything is based having points, so if you have to little points for one route you miss scenes. There is little to no crossover to other routes at this point, that might change later who knows.

All in all quite a hot game.

If you want a corruption game focused on overwatch and is a little on the extreame side, this is it.

While it may not be everyone's kinks they are at least nearly all clearly telegraphed so you know what you are and aren't getting into. The exception being "Bitchy ways" which is more of a femdom/bimbofication route, but in my case did confuse me a little.

Plenty of content and decent writing. The dev's blender work could use some help but there are artists like Gifdoozeer who provide complex tutorials that should help.

This game is so promising. The characters are fun, the girl is soooo hot, and it seems you can go anal only depending of your choices, which is a huge positive point that would make it almost perfect. Kudos to the developers

I really like Netorase, but i don't like any of the paths so far.

*I don't like the gross path because, well, it's gross.

*I don't like the BDSM path because i don't like the girlfriend to be violented.

*And i don't like the Hotwife path because she will just become some kind of bimbo girl...

It woul be way better if she was just normal, as she is raight know, but like to be shared with other men.

Great game so far, art is really good, story is decent, the paths are easy to see where it goes so It's hard to not miss, all in all for now I do say it's a 10/10 but only for those who like these fetishes like myself xD (but to be fair, if you see the tags, disliked and still download the game ... its on you)

Great game with many paths, at the moment dev is updating the sharing route that has 3 subroutes:
1. Submissive - Personally my fav one, you can see pet play, spankings, slapping etc. . At the moment the MC is preparing Hana to get into this stuff so she can do it with other guys.
2. Bimbo hotwife - It has the least content at the moment, but it will be all you can imagine.
2. Nasty route - Hana is getting into nasty and dirty stuff with Hobo guy.
-Art is amazing 10/10 for me.
- Hana model is amazing and really hot
I will add that the dev has made really amazing ass spanking renders, probably the best ones i saw in all the games i played on this site.
Highly recommend it to lovers of the NTR, dom/sub, humilliation lovers.

As of 0.5 version I can say this game is amazing, and I can’t understand why is it not getting the popularity it deserves.
9.5/10
- Models are great
- Scenes are amazing, you don’t see often devs that are not afraid of hardcore content and it is done great in this game.
- Humor is great in this one, plenty of memes being referenced and it will make you chuckle.

I’m not much of a NTR fan, but this game just has ‘that’ something that makes scenes incredibly hot and you can’t help but to play more and more.
Submissive route is perfect and I can’t wait to see what more types of hardcore stuff will dev bring us.

Ok, seeing the art I did initially overlook this game. It isn't terrible, but it isn't S tier either. But beyond that? Totally following it now. The dynamic of the MC couple is adorable and sweet. The sex gets incredibly rauncy, enough to satisfy some of the most extreme kinks (while being able to follow other paths instead). And the story.. I'm actually curious what's happening and what will happen next.

The game isn't perfect. There are some weird cartoon creatures that pop in and out and just needlessly break immersion. In theory there's a point where the 'path' gets locked down as to which of the 3 kinks you'll follow.. but in practice you seem to need to follow that path all the way through. (And locking down to one of three branches seems kinda needless, why not support multiple paths in some way). And the art is just kinda weird with the males for some reason, like their models just aren't on par with the female model. Older gen or something.

All that said though, it is fun, kinky, and a fast enjoyable romp. Totally get it and support it.

9/10 as of V0.5

+ Models are good
+ Scenes are well done
+ Pretty original combination of NTR/NTS + various other kinks

= Many typos / mediocre translations. Everything is 100% understandable though.

- Wish there was a bit more crossover between routes. For example:

(Reviewed version 0.4)
A lot of content for an early-ish version. The scenarios are hot as fuck and Hana looks pretty cute. Idk why Hana from overwatch but she's hot so fuck it.
Anyway, Game is pretty ambitious, with the laaarge amount of choices and a lot of features (like the Instagram page, messages, the Onlyfans (?) Thing, etc).
The story is just you and your gf hana, in a super loving scenario, get into NTR shit...with your blessing.
It has a lot of choices:
The "Filthy" scenario, as the name suggests, is filthy as fuck. Straight up garbage (literally). Hot as hell though, if you're into it.
The "hotwife" version is also pretty hot with the traditional "Netorase" or "hotwifing" shenanigans.
There's probably more with "anal" stat, and some "submissive" stat as well. Need to check it out more.

I rate this (currently) a 5/5.
I recommend all NTR/NTS lovers to try it out.

Hi there, I like NTRS, like Sharing, and my rating for 0.3 version of this game is... simply... 10/10
Why is that? (WARNING! A LOT OF TEXT WITH SPOILERS!)

1) (HUMOR): A small, but important part is the developer joking around in some game moments. The most important part is the game includes some funny moments/creatures/situations aswell. It is creates a nice atmosphere.

2) (LOVEY-DOVEY): In the game, you can see MC and Hana really love eachother, it's not just about fuck-fucking-fucko-fucka-fuck and lewdness. MC find out about (NTRS) in process and our of curiousity decided to try it out (not much to spoil there I guess) but he is truly love Hana. It's sweet.

3) (WE ARE SERIOUS HERE): One of my FAV in this game, the part of relationship between Hana and MC, they are mostly joking around and teasing eachother, they are not only couple, but you also can see them as a bestfriends (I guess I can call them a soulmates). They are always up to challenge eachother, mocking around, teasing, joking, and make a fun of eachother. All teasing action from Hana, or MC, is not only about Humiliation, Lust, and fetishes just to please the MC, she is also having fun while making fun of MC. They are just love making fun of each other, and in my opinion it show they're love very deep. It's rare and well-developed, I hope it will keep going like that.

4) (CLEAN AND SWEET): You want a homeless guys in NTRS setup? You will get it here. You want it REALLY dirty? Tired of devs who are scared to do such a things because people mostly will dislike? YOU. WILL. GET IT. HERE.
Scene's with homeless are truly my FAV at the moment, I hope it will continue in all stages of the game (ugly/old/fat bastards aswell). My respect to dev.

5) (HONEY, THEY ARE JUST POOR PEOPLE): In one of the scene's, MC was really kindly telling Hana, about how Poor some people is, and they are just need some help, some love. It was very sweet, like my FAV part of the deal. When you don't corrupt the GF, but make her belive, she is just helping people, showing them some love, doing the right things, and still, it's lewd and NTRS. Pleeeeeease keep it DEV^^ make Hana be understanding, and showing people the love and help them along with teasing MC with his Cuck fetish. It will be so nice to see her not just being a whore/slut, but beliving she is doing a good things for people, and making fun of her BF teasing him.


6) (CORRUPTION): It was a real pleasure to see Hana reacts to MC fetish with doubt about him loving her, she is disgusted by homeless guys from the start, and playing along with MC fetish very slowly. I really hope she will not end like a totally dump-whore, and will be more lewd but smoothly. She is not just agreeing with MC at whatever he wants, and she is not a whore from the start. It's nice.

7) (HAPPY): In all kind of situations, I'm very pleased with Hana's eyes, smiling, and facial expressions, her teasy eyes and smile towards MC aswell. I just love see her happy. It's great. Truly don't want her to cry or being sad.

Hanawakening v0.3

Let me preface this review with saying this game is NOT for me. Make sure to read to the end of the Developer Notes spoiler in the OP to see if it's for you, and really take it seriously. He's not fucking around.
Aside the problem I had with some of the fetishes, the Zillenial gamer humor with frequent meme cameos in the early part of the game doesn't land with Xennial like me. It slows down, but it was really weird and annoying at first. Then, breaking the fourth wall should happen no more than once a game in my opinion. It's not terribly frequent, but it happens about an order of magnitude (i.e. 10x) more often than I can tolerate. The graphics are very nice, until the dev decided to streamline production by changing from fully rendered scenes to moving sprites around on a background layer. Back to the fetish paths: There are promises of paths that I could enjoy, but right now, little or none of them are available in game. There's a little bit of content on the existing paths that's enjoyable, but for the most part, it's either fetishes that I'm not into, or the dev has presented the fetish in unappealing ways or in extremes that honestly repulse me. Let me elaborate.

Sharing
I'm not into hard-NTR, of which this game has none, but creating a situation that evokes jealousy before controlling a swinging or sharing scenario is something that I enjoy in fantasy and fiction, even if that's rarely how it's portrayed. This game, like many others with the swinging/sharing/soft-NTR fetishes, presents the MC introducing the idea of an open-relationship. Then, like all the other games, he quickly takes a weak and voyeuristic approach in the jealousy-building scenarios, letting other men encroach on his woman, while he drools and thinks about his erection. I can't begin to fathom that mindset as it's so anathema to my personality. To be fair, the dev does give you the option to refuse the sharing content early in the game, but then the game is done until the dev gets to that path, which all indications are that it won't happen for quite some time. Also, in most of the "encroachment" scenes, the MC can either intervene to stop it or allow it, but never control it. So, you have choices, but not the type of control that I crave.
Anal
I'm not into anal sex in games. It's just not my thing. I probably don't like it much because I've tried it enough in real life to know that the porn presentation of it as the ultimate pleasure for both parties every time is a woefully improbable exaggeration. I give the game credit for somewhat realistically showing enjoyable buttplay rather than full anal, but I expect that won't be where this path ends. Seeing Hana turn into the nearly mythical anal whore will be boring for me. Also, some of the anal content in unavoidable. In a dream turned masturbatory fantasy, MC visualizes Hana escorted by other men with cum seeping past an enormous buttplug while she talks about it with MC.
Submission
This is definitely my favorite fetish in the game, and there's not much of it. One scene toward the end of current development gives you the chance to choose a scene with some spanking and rough nipple play. It was a good scene. There's also a daydream fantasy that gets way rougher, but it's also a sharing/light-NTR scene and doesn't affect anything outside the daydream other than a few lines of dialogue.
Filth
This is the path with the most content and the biggest turn-off for me. Most games with this fetish, show you a gross old man, a homeless dude, or an enormously obese man and might show you a little white smegma while describing how gross and stinky it is. This game chooses to turn that concept up to the max. There are numerous appearances of dicks covered in copious amounts of green smegma and often an accompanying blowjob, some are fantasies and some aren't. The last scene of the game is Hana being unconsciously I steeled myself against the green smegma so I could do a thorough review, but the escalation to was beyond my wildest expectations from the dev notes warning. Even if you avoid the filth fetish and opt out of the fantasies as soon as possible, you're still presented with some of the grosses depictions of saliva that I've seen in games. It's grey or black and abundant. I'm really unexcited by that and wish it were more avoidable than it currently is, but I suspect that it's a core feature for this dev.

With that explanation out of the way, I can say that although there was very little I could enjoy about the sexual themes and fetishes in the game, the game is well made. The music sets the tone well. The renders look very nice. The MC doesn't look like a total doofus, but he's still a bit dorky looking. Hana is cute as fuck with enough curves to catch my eye. I was disappointed when mid-game a fourth wall break explains that the graphical style will change to old-school VN with sprites on backgrounds between the sex scenes. I understand the urge to speed development, but I don't think downgrading the quality of the product mid-game is the solution. The writing has fewer misspellings and word choice errors than most adult games. The dialogues flow well, are entertaining, and match the mood. The overall story and mystery plot is unique and very interesting. The writer is unfolding the story well without giving much away too soon while craftily revealing hints and foreshadowed threats. It appears dev's goal is juxtaposing utter (and literal) filth and maximum debauchery against a cutesy gamer-girl who is also an anime-esque badass mecha pilot. To that end, his mission is being accomplished, but I'm out.

If I were to do some sort of points breakdown deducting for the sprites, being almost completely focused on gross, niche fetishes, a little unavoidable content, fourth-wall breaks, and the goddamn memes, I'd give it a two out of five, but I liked the art style and the storytelling, so I'd push it back up to a three. However, it's a better than average game that happens to focus on fetishes I don't like and jokes I don't get, but I don't think my rating should be based on how well my tastes align with others. If you can stomach this sort of content, it's probably a five, so I'll split the difference with you and give it a four.

In general, I liked the game, but these stupid dreams or thoughts are terrible. I think we need to focus on REAL sex scenes and not on dreams . 3 sex scenes were dreams, it spoils the perception of the whole story .

First and foremost, while NTR is technically avoidable you're not going to get much enjoyment out of the game if you're just here for the vanilla content. The dev has stated specifically that the vanilla only route will not be a priority.

On the other hand, if you enjoy consensual NTR/Netorase, you'll find a lot to like in this game. The game is for the most part a corruption game where you try to get your gf D. Va into various depraved and corrupting situations, often involving other guys.

There's a few things that need work. The art can look a bit odd, particularly with the fluid effects. The story pacing could use more work either, there's a very heavy reliance on "imaginary" scenes in the game so far, likely to due to the fact that the author didn't want to have several updates without actual sexual content, but also wants to have a slow build up to the corruption.

But that aside, I'm excited to see where the game goes.
