VN - Ren'Py - In for a Penny [v0.51] [Moist Sponge Productions]

One of my favorite games here, I played it multiple times. The girls are really hot and there is a lot of them and they don't look the same, most are curvy which is a good thing, the game isn't grindy, it has a lot of content

great game loving it so far.

Highlights
fit models redheads, blondes you name it interesting characters too

overview
MC wakes up on a spaceship and put into a dome with 50 plus females his job is to basically shag them all for some Alien Big Brother type series. You have some women love him some want to kill him. You have a ready made harem of Nuns who are masters(you) sluts who have been waiting for you to arrive to basically attend your every desire. You have female gods, you have cheerleader family, you have a bunch of redeheads like police who are sadistic. too much to say play its fun.

There are plots against you and of course it turns out you are no ordinary MC which will pan out over the game.

Storyline is interesting on the whole pretty well written the odd typo here and there but thats just nitpicking really.

I have given it 5 stars as it kept me interested in the plot so the following criticism is only my personal view and in no way can i drop a star because of it.

I am not a fan of like overly massive tits it looks ridiculous and if i saw people like that irl i would raise money to get them reduced it is NOT sexy at all. MC tackle is also ridiculous size but apparently due to some alien shit one size fits all regardless (wtf)

far too much use of the words slut by an insane head nun she is psychopathic , fit but crazy dont stick it into crazy they say but im sure i will when the game lets me because she is a hot redhead when she aint in her habit.

plenty of hours of play must have spent upwards of 30 hours (probably more i was too engrossed to count)

Drawback this is obviously a one time playthrough as this is a kinetic novel not a visual novel so no paths to choose. I just hope there is a lot more to come as it would be nice to have a long running saga if there is no playthrough options afterwards.

Devs thank you for your hard work i look forward to the following updates.

This keeps feeling like it's almost a good game, but then it keeps reminding me it's not really a game at all.

What "choices" there are don't actually feel like choices but more of a button that you are clicking that might as well say "continue to story".

It is an amusing story at times that hooks me in, other times it repeats itself to fill time, other times it adds parts it that just make me go "wtf? Why?" because it was take a left turn to get back to where you already were but now there's someone else there. It's hard to stay "hooked" because it just whiplashes you so often with starts and stops, not for the sake of dramatic, but I don't know why.

All the common tropes of AVNs are here and while the game tries to make fun of some of them and not take itself too seriously, it still ends up being a dull slog of never ending and bland dialogue with a horde of characters that have zero to no personality at all.

I suppose it's intended to be a satirical take on the genre, but it's so poorly executed that it becomes just another example of most of the clichés that plague most AVNs.

one of the worst game i have played so far the sotry are not enough interessting and made no sense at all and for people that want girl with small normal or big breast forget that game all the girl have sursursurdimensionned breast 99% of the people won t like that game because everthing is to much irrealistic

A farly well written harem sci-fi commedy.

The humor alternates between being completely on the nose to obscure pop culture references, so while it's a bit of hit and miss, it's also its own unique writing style.

The main fetishes are reluctant maledom as well as sci-fi induced macromastia and penile elephantiasis.

In for a Penny is truly a masterpiece in many facets even if none of those facets are enjoyable. However, something being unenjoyable does not disqualify it from being impressive. In fact, something can be so unenjoyable that the unenjoyableness of that thing can in itself be impressive. Imagine the smelliest fart ever produced or the longest tape worm to escape a butthole or in our case this game.

The plot in this game is one of the most idiotic and mind-numbing drivel hosted on this site and that's saying something. Your brain cells will lose brain cells. Reading the texts contained in the game (refuse to call it dialogue), feels as if one is being administered a lobotomy by an orangutan who obtained his orangutan medical license through dubious means.

Where this game really shines and separates itself from its peers (thankfully) though is in its characters. It features well over forty of them, and most of them are written to be very unlikable..intentionally. The dev's ability to write unlikable characters, intentional or otherwise, is honestly a beacon of human creativity and imagination. No where else will one find so many rage/puke inducing characters so densely packed together. Each one unique in the flavor of puke they induce. Now one might wonder why this matters, so think about this- would the Sistine Chapel be the masterpiece it is if Michelangelo had painted all the dicks in the same boring manner? Surely Not!

I like it! At first I thought it was going to be an interactive sandbox game, but it isn't. It's a linear visual novel. Contrary to the reviewers that gave this game a low rating, I like the mc a lot (very anime-esque type protagonist when I tend to like), I like the characters (most of 'em), and I am invested by the story.

The "animations" and renders are subpar, but it doesn't bother me. Personally, I like the designs of the women and their personalities. The mc is very charismatic as far my standards go. There are a few bugs and the grammar can be atrocious (a lot of where's in place of were's). I would like for there to be more sfxs and music. It became to the point where music and a single sfx were added and scared the shit out of me when it happened. And the zoom in on characters sometimes give me a jumpscare bc they are really uncalled for.

I really want for this game to reach a satisfying climax (no pun intended) and resolution because if you're gonna build it up to where it is now you have to see it to the end. If you're looking for something more interactive, I'd skip this game completely, but if you're actually in it for the plot, it won't hurt to try it out and see how you like it for yourself.

It's funny and has kept my attention despite deleting it repeatedly.

My only real complaint apart from I don't really care for the sex scenes is that the whole "mind control bullshit and always a bigger previously un-hinted at or unknown fish that ignores previously repeatedly stated rules" recurring subplot wore out its welcome a long, long time ago and went from neat to starting to drain the little patience I had for the kinda obviously not proofread writing.

Fun, lighthearted, expansive, and huge boobs. What more could you want? The story is a tad strange but overall enjoyable and keeps it moving. Sometimes I wish the story would move along quicker or that we could see more of certain characters but a great game nontheless

Funny game. Enough lewd scenes to make it worth the read. Dev has a strong sense of where he wants to take the story. Just needs some typo fixes. But I've offered help with that. Hopefully the dev is willing to accept the help.

Wasn´t so dissapointed in a long time.

The game has a perfect concept for a good sandbox game, fuck 40 woman because the aliens chose you for it. But sadly this game isn´t a sandbox it´s a linear kinetic novel with a annoyingly passiv MC and girls who I didn´t care about because I can´t remember 40+ character which randomly appear in a sandbox this would be solved because you could chose which girls story you want to follow.

But even without a sandbox or a good MC it could have been good but the story gets worse and worse, the sex scenes are far too little and when there is one they are boring and have bad animation.

The models also look just boring, I don´t mind the massive dick or breasts because it is explained in the story with the body alteration (even if the veins on the dick look very ugly).

There is no music except in the menu which makes everything feel even more boring.

The dialogue is very badly written and sometimes hard to read because there is no black background or anything behind the text which is just bad for the eyes.


It had a lot of potential but instead became a game which I will soon forget.

The action takes place in a science fiction setting. There would be nothing wrong with that, if it weren't for the plot. The plot is frankly boring, it is not able to captivate, to interest the reader (yes, this is not a game, it is a visual novel). I spent about two hours on this VN. And those two hours were cut out of my life.
Aside from the plot, the main flaws for me are:
- Lack of gameplay;
- prohibitively giant breasts on the women. BBW is not my fetish, I don't mind when one to two characters with large breasts are glimpsed in a game or VN, but here the author just lost touch with reality. It only leads to having to fight a strong sense of disgust when viewing the renders of this VN. Yes, I remember it's SF, but some unfortunate assumptions turn the developer's labor into ashes.
However, the same applies to outrageously large penises. At times, the suspicion that the artist (or the developer) never saw big-breasted women in real life creeps in, throwing up some body physics issues.
In my humble opinion, this VN by its level can only interest teenagers suffering from spermotoxicosis.
What are the good points? For me, there are none. Alas, my assessment of this VN is one point + aimlessly wasted time.

v.0.42

off the bat i have to say...er...write that i like the plot. i do not come for the sex. i know, mad right?

to be honest massive boobs and genitals, regardless of plot, just not my thing. if it floats ya boat good on ya. so the art i am half yes and half no.

the plot is the hook for me and is great, sadly it does not have the best writer and has never been proof read. even now with sizable content there are still writing errors from the get go. it is now at a point where a spell-checker may actually blow up.
BUT, the story as a whole i like so plot yes, but dialogue no.

the only other thing that really pulls this down is that it is a kinetic novel on renpy and it STILL has errors. i have not ever seen that before. one whole choice playing from beginning to current end yet twice it hit an error due to poor programming, and not at all during the choice. the mind boggles

so i have given this a slightly inflated 3 star due to the novle side of things (yes that was intentional) because i like it, i just wish the dev would give it a bit more respect

I had fun with this one, am really what more can ask? The story is rediculous, but in a good way. Characters find themselves in a weird situation and for the most part act accordingly, and the story sticks through from beginning to end. People being pissed about their situation, power struggles, small things, big things.

Renders are good but not the latest and greatest, and there are some typo's here and there but nothing game breaking.

So all in all, get in with and open mind and definitely would recommend.

The concept is great but the execution is horrendously poor. The game is riddled with grammar and spelling errors, causing lots of confusing and frustrating dialogue. More so than this, the concept is ruined by the developers reluctance to simply stop, reasses, and do what's necessary to figure out how they want the story to go. It's a shame, too. A lot of the models are fairly good, which makes a lot of the scenes really hot. But...a lot of this really is wasted effort.

This first part is for the Trolls out there. This is a Kinetic Novel as it's clearly stated in the Tags and the Main Picture of Women with giant Breasts should be a good indicator of what's in this Novel.

However, if you're willing to play the game for more than 30 minutes you'll find a large group of natural looking Women cloistered at the Church. The leader of the group is Sister anne who is a bit militant and refers to the Towns Women as "Balloon Bimbos". An added bonus is that the Sisters are not Celibate for it's not that kind of Church. Later the MC will visit there most days for our enjoyment.

At the beginning the MC is frustrating. He is pissed off at being abducted and forced to play the lead on some kind of Adult Reality TV Porn Show for a bunch of purvey aliens. While dragging his feet the MC will get dragged/tricked/fall into sexual situations with the more willing. Eventually the MC will embrace his role with the knowledge that everyone will benefit if the show does well. But just because he's now willing doesn't mean it will be easy, for everyone knows why he's there and not all are happy (example: Man Hating Lesbian).

I think the renders are great. While I'm not a fan of the giant oversized Breasts nor find some of the girls to be sexy I do find them to be beautiful. The Dev seemed to have put in some effort on facial design with varied expressions for each girl ranging from humorous to adorable. After reading the posts I went back and saw that some early renders were indeed grainy but they were the exception not the rule.

The sex scenes varied from girl to girl with lots of renders and fun dialogue. Enjoy.

Started out OK - the size of the women's boobs was absurd and not the best renders but decent enough game. However, a while back it started getting sillier. Worst of all, there stopped being choices and it moved from a game to a kinetic novel. That was a dick move changing it like that. I hate kinetic novels and it didn't start that way.

Some of the writing is ok, but the renders are very ugly. Every single woman has monstrous breasts that hang in an unrealistic way. They are not just big, but cartoonishly big. And when everyone's big, no one is. There's a lack of variety of boobs shapes and sizes. Everyone's just the same, with the exception of one "small" boobed lady and one whose breasts are extra big.

Quite a meaty story for those like myself just jumping on board now. The setting and concept are pretty hot and wildly underutilized amongst horny games. But the absurd body sliders are mostly a turn off, with the "flat chested" characters having larger tits than the big breasted characters from more realistic VNs.

Also while I do enjoy the pulpy story, there are a lot of things to complain about. For having been written by an English speaker, it often reads like something that's gone through an online translator. For example I would really like this dialogue explained:
[handing the MC a drink]
"Here you go. Want to know what it is?"
"Not really... So long as it stings." [so far so good]
"So, what are you thinking dearie? Tell auntie Jane."
"An agony aunt!?!"
"Young ones these days. Always running around not thinking."
^What does that mean? Why did the MC shout agony aunt? Why did Jane reply with a seeming non-sequitur? Stuff like that pops up all the time. Genuinely though if this is a reference I simply don't understand, anyone can DM me to explain and I'll amend my review.
EDIT: someone explained what this meant, it actually tracks! Might add a different quote in later though, cuz there's definitely still dialogue that doesn't make much sense.

Also there are a surprising amount of bugs, especially given how long this game seems to have been out. The MC's name changes to default occasionally, and every sex scene with animations has bugged out with the Ren'Py "An exception has occurred." error message. No matter how good the story is, you're gonna get pushback when you get the sex scenes wrong.

Last two main complaints, one is easy to fix and one is a more significant issue. The former is that oftentimes two characters will be in a scene with the MC, and when one speaks, the camera focuses on the other. It's unnatural and especially confusing when you're starting out. If it's a conscious creative choice made by the creators, they should know that it's wrong and they should stop doing it. The latter complaint is that the MC keeps having interesting conversations and dates with compelling characters... and then has sex with a rando. Every sex scene with a Sister so far has been disappointing, because I don't know them. I'm champing at the bit to have some fun with Crystal, or Sally, or hell even Maddie or Molly, because I am invested in them as characters. Meanwhile I've boned Irina, Emma, and Gina, and they've shown up elsewhere in the story practically zero times. While I disagree with the MC's general reluctance to have sex, I understand his narrative purpose for acting so, and am further confounded by these instant sex side quests where others would be way more fulfilling.

Sorry, got a bit rambly there, but I'll wrap it up. Despite all my complaints, the story is a lot of pulpy fun (looking at you, Alice), the characters are cumpelling , and while I wish there was a game like this where I had more choice as to who I pursued and when, I'm having fun in this domed holodeck fantasy.

(also all my complaints aside, if you fix the animations and stop Ren'py from giving me error messages, I'll bump my rating up)
