Ren'Py - Insatiable [v0.8.1] [cumAgain? Games]

Review of v0.2.2

Probably the biggest factor in giving Insatiable a 5-star rating is the fact that it really nails a few kinks that I feel are underserved (or served with other content that diminishes my enjoyment). Therefore, a lot of my approval is very subjective. However, I feel I can provide plenty of insight into whether this game is for you.

It's all right there in the name. Insatiable is about managing an absolutely insatiable libido. And I can say that I've not found any game that even begins to approach this game's success in that kink. The progression is exceptional. Early on the "grind" is a little annoying and unsatisfying, and it's perfect like that. Your options just keep opening up more and more and so very satisfyingly so. Periodically, a story element will up the challenge, and each time it does so in such a way that you don't feel penalized, but rather as an indication of your improvement and importance to those around you. Marvelous! And with all this I'd not have believed that the balancing could be so spot on, but it is.

If I were to complain a little bit I'd say that the renders themselves, particularly those early on in the game, tend towards graininess. And some of the models aren't quite as appealing as I'd like, but these are trivialities when placed in the context of such a good game. I very much approve of the general use of 2-3 still shots for most animations as they require less resources from the dev and work just as well. But certain important scenes are fully animated and don't particularly suffer from uncanny valley in the motion that I loathe in many games. Better not to animate than animate poorly!

The writing is solid, with almost no errors in English and with dialogue that sounds natural. The MC occasionally shows a good sense of humor and empathy that is essential to juxtapose with the loss of control aspects of his new situation. I would suggest that the author add more such instances of dialogue humor and displays of empathy both to further emphasize the sides of his character and because it makes his, err, male exceptionalism not just about his body and, well, superpower, but also his mind and "heart".

The main story itself is interesting and the side plots are as well.

And, damn, the game just turns out to be as sexually charged as the main character. I couldn't stop playing from the start to the end of the v0.2.2 content. Superb game, I can't wait to continue my journey in it!

Review for 0.2.3

This is a hidden gem. The plot is kinda goofy, but it's an interesting premise that's fun! Chapter 1 is really well-done, where you start off as a really pathetic MC, and the game tells how much of wimp the MC is through gameplay.

Once the game gets going, there's lots of scenes. The best part about this game is that there are fun mechanics like having to fight your own libido and needing to get it below certain thresholds for events to trigger. The dialogue is good, short and moves the plot along. Having a dice roll mechanic for event triggers is a great idea and alternative to regular switch-toggle choices in other Ren'Py games.

There's a decent amount of content as well. Good job, dev.

Game seems simple, but why complicate things? You become a gigachad and bang your stepsister and stepmom and other sluts.

The game does not dump loads of text on you, it does not waste your time. The renders are extremely hot, especially if you like stuff like cock worship, some size difference (gigantic cock) etc.

There are some mechanics where you have to manage your lust etc, but it is not too bothersome and serves as a little bit of padding. Most of the activities to manage lust and money are actually just repeating sex scenes, which have a few rotating things happen, so it does not feel too bothersome (like in other games having to go to work, which is just boring work etc, here you just bang).

Overall just a fun time and I hope the dev continues working on it. No bullshit, no trying to be the Shakespeare of porn. Just damn good time.

I probably play way too many of these games, but that means I can confidently say that this one is top quality.

Characters exist, story exists, and humor exists.

Lets just say that when you're paying attention to the story in a porn game you know it's a good one.

A good porn game, probably tries a bit to hard to be funny and irreverent and is probably trying to poke some fun at some of the porn game conventions but that stuff doesn't really land imo.
What you have here is your standard porn game set-up: massived dicked MC fucks every girl in sight because they can't resist his massive cock. And it's all dialed up to 11, shit probably 12 here.
If you're the type who can't turn off their analytical side or if you are looking for a engaging narrative then you'll probably dislike this game.
What is here is some decent porn that is accessed by some stat management mechanics. The mechanics are pretty annoying early on but progressively get easier and easier to manage
The visuals are Virt-a-mate and are on the better side for that software but not the best i've seen. There are animations in the most recent scenes, but the rest of the scenes are images in a flip-book type set up. There are also a handful of place holders for images/scenes to be added later i think
Overall a decent porn game
recommended for people who don't have absurd porn narrative fatigue and who don't mind sandboxes and management mechanics

Game is shaping up really well; interesting story with lots of humor and interaction between the characters and the dialogue is just about the right length - I've never skipped it while playing .

You raise your alpha stats to unlock sex scenes and new love interest but there is no grinding and it is part of the story development.

Nice looking renders (too much light sometimes perhaps); dev is updating regularly and is active on discord; looking forward to new installments.

My first review: Excellent game, best concept. If you add impregnation and pregnancy you have yourself a goldmine dear dev. With all the women in a harem and this megachad as a playable character that pumps all the chicks this is pure gold. Very nice so far, just continue with this wonderful project!

As of v0.2 - Love the alpha points concept, and MC's size after their 'transformation'.

So far the story is pretty linear, but this is early days, perhaps more branching choices to come.

Some great content and porn parody so far. Good luck with the project and cant wait for more content.

the exact kind of Cartoony romp i want in a porn game, I'm looking forward to this and am strongly considering supporting the development of this.

is the story anyhtign new and groundbreaking? not really at least in general but to my knowledge its unique toporn GAMES.

that out of the way the scenes we ahve so far are okay,almsot ALL the"alpha" options are actually "alpha" i would say the two on the prostitution should be flipped given its very preference based or just not connected to the gain/loss of the alpha stat.

scenes could be a bit better animated but at this stage of development that can wait till the game is more fleshed out.

might want to change the banner image gives the impression the dad is the MC.

looking forward to the next update

i am ready for some come-back alpha male-ish content. only drawback is that the guy gets it easy cause of his physique
that's fine, not all Games need have a robust storyline
we're here for sex games and we get that
graphics is really nice

So far, the game is very humiliation oriented, but in a very unsexy (you are being treated as shit on a funny stick) kind of way.
With jokes as flat MC's pre-transformation face, and the nasty attitude of an unavodable futa orc ass-rape to match.

Like, whats the point of giving a "manliness" score to MC choices, if you are going to make it as arbitrary as being a complete sub and a "good boy" who licks pussy on one ocasion, only to shit on a relatively dicent looking punk girl's self-esteem the next moment after fucking her?!
Whats worse, if your opinion disgrees with author's too many times, you are potentially locked out of some of the original content.
Not to mention a grind where you are FORCED to look at MC fapping and cumming all over himself, over and over, if you wish progress the game. (Even if you are into that sort of stuff, just how many times will you want to watch if before praying for auto-skip?!)

If its some sort of attempt at "PARODY" on your average power fantasy porn, then at least work a bit on a script to make it actually witty. And if its a honest attemt to do a powerfantasy porn with some rare kinks added into the mix, then it failed harder than the original MC has failed at life. (even if you take the previously mentioned orc-futa raping, the scene is clearly made as a gag, and while it will be an absolute turn off for some, it will also not satisfy people that are into that sort of thing due to being cut )

About the only decent thing I can say about the game so far is that the 3D models are fine, and author managed to do somewhat good work on face expressions during scenes.
