VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Kimberly's Life [v0.13] [SpaceBall1]

Only if you're into linear novel of young girls with ugly old men, because there are zero choices. Quite a bit of content, but the author wrote himself into a corner. Ending is super rushed, and very disappointing.

To the dev, hope next game there will be some player agency and a protag who can try to fix her problems by playing one ugly guy against the other to reach a win for herself.

Kimberly is a young adult who has the resistance of a kitten. Ugly bastards sexually abuse her in every scene and she is barely if at all defiant. Her inner monologue begins as a tormented girl slowly corrupted into accepting her purpose as trailer trash slut. The only thing she has going for her is a commitment to her younger brother and good looks. I'm a fan of the ugly bastard theme so my rating may be bias. This novel gets to the nut rather quickly as well instead of a long drawn out story (Like this review)

My Rating for (v0.10) is:

Pros:
+ Hot Graphics
+ Easy Playing
+ No Grinding
+ Nice Story
+ No Bullshit
+ Great Characters
+ Nice Closeups
+ Ugly Bastards

Cons:
- Updates take longer

Conclusion:
Have been following the Dev since day one, and must say after a couple of releases that where later abandoned, he has finally found his Story, beautiful young ladies with Ugly old Bastards (Positive Meaning) is just my thing to get away from the daily problems in the world, the story is good and there is no blue balling compared to his first Game Releases.
This Game is in my Top 10 choices of Games I love to Play.

I really like the premise of this game, unfortunately the story is completely predictable and linear.

Each update gets you another scene where she or her cousin gets abused in some fashion, there's no dramatic progression. Kimberly never succeeds or barely even tries to find a way out of her situation, which makes every scene more of the same.

The story urgently needs tension. Corruption is only interesting if there's a struggle and the illusion of success. Otherwise, it's just a series of porn scenes.

I really love this game!

Pros:
+ Super hot MC (with realistic proportions!! )
+ Good quality renders and characters
+ Corruption, blackmail, groping, harassment, voyeur, rape, all the good stuff lol
+ Sexy story that just humiliates this poor girl and seeing her being abused by pretty much everyone around her

Cons:
- No choices (I really love/value choice, even fake lol)
- No music or sounds
- No animations
- Very fast paced/fast corruption (though that may be a BIG positive to some lol)

I also wish there were more renders in each scene, but I'm happy with what is there! I love this game and eagerly await updates and whatever else this developer decides to release in the future!

The only interaction with VNs genre is "choice", even if it's Illusion, to me I feel it more than reading a comic. That's the power of video games, and sadly this one doesn't have it. Good art and don't need grinding, a decent *Nukige* story, respect our time that's very big plus point.

Rating based on v0.8
Pros:

• Writing has good pacing and somewhat plausible plot.
• The main two female protagonists are quite hot, with large breasts but in realistic proportions
• Decent english grammar with only a few errors but nothing worth noting
• Definitely hits the corruption, forced sex, and young/old genres quite well

Cons:

• Kinetic VN with zero choices (Some might consider that a pro but just personal preference)
• Models for some of the old folks are just weird. Like almost alien looking
• Non-animated sex scenes you have to click click click through.
• The 10 year old brother just looks like a shrunken man and even appears to have a beard/mustache shadow in many renders. (quick edit: dev is or has replaced model and new model is excellent)
• Could've used a bit more variation in the females. Kimberly is supposed to be the hottest female around but she looks pretty much the same, including body shape, as every other girl in the game, just different heights, skin color and hairstyles.

Deeper thoughts:

I think it's a pretty decent VN. And that's all it is is a VN. Zero choices whatsoever so for me that's a bit of a negative. That's just personal preference though so can't really knock the creator for it. Besides that, the two main female protagonists are pretty hot, very nicely done. Perhaps a little more variation in their body shapes would've been appreciated but I won't say they're complete clones either.

My two biggest gripes. First is, and it might just be a lack of developer skill, the lack of animations for the sex scenes. The repeated clicks to get through them is rather off-putting. (edit: apparently this is dev's preference. That's fine but I personally prefer animations. Again, personal preference) Second is some of the "ugly old men' are just so strange in their appearance they seriously don't even look human. Particularly the old asian pops. I'm very much aware that aging these models, and making them just look like ugly old men, especially with variation, can be difficult but better to keep it in moderation than going to such extremes. And don't get me wrong, some of them are in fact quite well done. It's hit or miss with so many of them.

Either way, will definitely enjoy reading future updates/releases.

Female models: 4 out of 5 stars due to less-than-perfect lighting.
Plot: 3 out of 5 stars for a "cliché woman-fall-due-to-misery" story.
Storytelling technique (including wording and pace setting): 2 out of 5 stars -- an okay story told in a quite dry and dull manner; not hot at all.

Overall: 3 stars for an average quality porn game.

First off I want to say that I think this is a great game for people with kinks like harassment, blackmail, forced, etc.

As someone who shares this kinks, I did enjoy the game, but I personally find it a turn off that the women subjected to harassment in this game and the previous game from the creator are too kind and just very nice and naive. This is 100% a personal opinion, and maybe 99% of the people who played the game disagree, but I would have liked to see a girl more superficial, a real "bitch", who would mistreat people or whatever, getting treated this way. I think it's a moral compass kind of thing or maybe this game is not for me, but I just cant enjoy get hard with these kinks when the girls life is super depressing..

Again, this is a personal opinion and a personal suggestion, which I think makes it for people with these kinks to enjoy, but at the same time some people may just prefer this more innocent personality for the women in these games. However, since the creator is so active in this forum, I did feel like it was worth mentioning.

Lastly, I say again that this is one of the best games for people with these kinks if what I mentioned is not a turn off for you. The graphics, writting and story are top tier and this is one of the only creators that constantly drops updates with actual content. This is why I rate this 5 stars, because the only problem I have with it is much more of a personal issue which I dont know how many people agree with.

All in all, that's a hit or miss. Enjoy fmc getting harassed by ugly/fat dudes?
Give it a try.

Good points
- Static renders are overall good. Lighting, composition, overall quality is great. I would have to be really petty to point problems in this area. Nothing extraordinary, but gets the job done.
-Being kinetic does help in the FMC's helplessness (I believe) it wants to achieve

Bad points
-No animations (at least in what I played) or/and the renders that keep being alternated don't have always the best pose (for "momentum"), making an weird looking movement.
-Writing ain't that bad, but story/setting is not good. While it tries to create an abusive setting in which the girl would be humiliated/dominated/etc, the execution is not great. It gets the key points right (debts, misfortunes, etc) but not in a way that feels like a real situation. Might me the lack of choices, but it feels like the woman surrender too easily. While the sex harassament escalates, the too early acceptance doesn't appeal to me.
-Lack of sound.I don't care much about music background, but well placed moans, etc, could improve the sex scenes (specially to increase the impression of corruption)


Considerations:
-Being a kinetic novel makes this game be just another FMC tossed around game for me.
-Having animations or better alternated sex renders would improve the game a lot.

All in all, if you're the type that does not care and probably don't even read the dialogue, this might be worth a try. Or if you just want some simple context.
Even more if you're into the ugly/fat bastard. The game doubles down on them.

My feeling was that the game has the major points figured out, but the way they connect does not convince me/does not make me enjoy (fap to it xD), so I can't really recommend it.

Pros

• Corruption. Plenty of it. If that's your thing, you'll enjoy it.
• Very hot MC and secondary MC. Realistic bodies too, which is an added bonus.
• Decent writing (for a porn game).

Cons

• I mean I enjoy games where the MC is corrupted by some old dudes, but some of these guys look like sewer rats... Like you can make them average looking old men and the corruption would play out exactly the same. Some of their dicks also look like micro penises.

Not much else to say as of version 0.6. Very decent game for anyone who enjoys this corruption/blackmail style.

The fact that the game is a kinetic novel is a minus point for me, but it's the developer's choice, I respect it.
I must say that I like 3d rendering. Better than many games and well taken care of.
Although the darkness and desperation in the game's story are unsettling, the good graphics provide the story flow.
I'm sure those who are interested in the dark atmosphere, rape and bullying will love this game.
I have to say that the story is not for me, but I am curious about its course.

Good game, poor Kimberly surrounded by those dirty lecherous old men. She dislikes their attention, but can she resist their onslaught, their attempts to touch her beautiful body?
Great modeling of the protagonist and her cousin. The old men are different, there are the usual ones, but a lot of disgusting old men and that's a good! Will these monsters be able to get the beauties?
A big plus of the game is that it focuses on the main character, and later I hope her hot innocent cousin as well. There aren't a huge amount of fillers, other girls, unnecessary locations. When games are overdone they often can't be finished by the authors, think of other games, there are some very high quality games, but the authors will finish them by 2040 at best, it's not serious and it's annoying when the attention is diverted to uninteresting secondary characters. In this game there is nothing superfluous, the main character and her cousin are in the foreground. Poor-poor Kimberly and Hayleigh

An excellent game for the Corruption/Blackmail fans. Actively keeping eye on this one.

Pros:
+ Blackmail & corruption is explored (Personal bias)
+ Art is good (cute MC & Sophie with realistic body proportions) ,
+ Storyline is believable
+ English is good (with no spell errors so far)

Cons :
- The MC goes from being a virgin to having sex with randos/ getting naked to panties in a bar within a span 5mins.
- Slower updates

Recommendations: (in order)
-> The corruption of MC being more gradual, eg for bar scene- initially it can be wearing risqué clothes, then more lewd clothes (which require more convincing/ blackmail)
-> Exploration of Sabrina and her friend being more of a bitch to MC and humiliation of Kimberly in school
-> Possibility of branching to continue/dis-continue a particular branch i.e. to give option to shut down sex with particular characters eg. principal/homeless folks/etc.

Overall giving 4 stars since it does more than enough to peak to my interest to track the progress.

-1 star since the VN makes me feel bad for MC after the fap

This is the Ugly Bastard game we need.
Beatiful young virgin abused by several UB guys.
POV of a female protagonist is the way it should be done.
Cherry popping setting is great also.
Pathetic young UB set up by the UB old man.
Everything seems great.
My main complain is about the portrayal of Kimberly being too simple.
Just hate and disgust all along.
Maybe the author wants to make her slowly corrupted.
But for now there is no mixed feeling in the sex.

I considered rating this train wreck lower, but like a wreck I can't look away. Kimberly is one of the hottest rendered characters in any game. Full stop. And really the only reason I continue to follow this. The story is terrible, every fabrication for blackmail is ill-conceived and could not possibly work in real life. I do understand this is fiction "fantasy world" type stuff, as all the stories on here are, but many have at least something related to how the real world operates or at the very least some logical rules to allow suspension of disbelief. Early in the story options are presented to allow the ugly old bastards to get what they want, but some trivial thing occurs and "oh well, we can stop here, but next time we're going all the way..." which just comes across as an excuse to create a false build up to some sort of climax. It falls flat and feels contrived. Overall the render quality is ok, but it weirds me out seeing her little 10 year old brother with a 5 o'clock shadow. The sets are bare bones and lighting is fairly static and overall the graphics have serious room for improvement, which makes Kimberly even more of a miracle as far as attractiveness goes. It is obvious she is the center of this world , and may be why Kimberly looks like she was purchased at Tiffanies, and everything around her was purchased at the Dollar Store. Kudos to the dev for creating that stark contrast with such limitations... it drives the point home that Kimberly is every mans desire. If the story and scenarios were more clever and appeared more thought out, I'd grade this a 4 or 5 star. As is, I have started running the text on a higher auto rate, just to watch the scene unfold and imagine my own story to how this is taking place. Good Luck to the dev, for this offering and any future developments. I may not read it, but I'll continue to watch.

Kimberly's Life [v0.3] is not a game but as a kinetic novel it pushes all the right buttons. The main character Kimberly has no easy life. She is a pretty and innocent girl getting blackmailed into lewd situations by quite a few old disgusting men. I almost feel sorry for her. Unlike in many other games the way our girl is being forced into corruption is plausible - probably because Kimberly's thoughts and feelings are being shown.

The renders are quite good. The model used for Kimberly is gorgeous.

You shouldn't expect anything more than depraved story with lots of old men molesting a young girl. But if you like this you've come to the right place. Definitely one of the better kinetic novels on f95zone.

Having finally played the game now, can say that in general it works and seems to move in good direction.

Renders:

Are good enough for characters that matter to us, Kimberly looks especially nice in comparison to other women. So in that sense, whenever the other characters compliment her and single her out as being the best looking it feels believable.

Writing:

Cons:

I am definitely not a good writer, nor is English my first language but I wanted to comment a few things. As a whole the writing is good enough but can definitely feel awkward at times. For example: "A little while later, Kimberly is arriving at school". It is a sentence that when I read it, it somehow bothers me. Maybe just the fact that it exists in first place? We know she is going to school and then next see her there, so already starting with "Living in a trailer....." would be sufficient enough? There were other cases like this where sentences individually felt a bit off but to me that is fine, as long as the thought itself in the message is fine.

Pros:

The setup for her situation and motivations is believable enough to set up her corruption path. Unlike the japanese porn level of stupid "Oh, they have a video of me masturbating" or "They took a picture without my consent, guess I have to become a sex slave now", despite having a million options at their hand. In here there is urgency, she has only one friend and yeah, has to manage school, work and taking care of little brother and her mother. Sure, there might be options for her but it is a porn game and this scenario is good enough.

What I liked the most and what was done really well was Kimberlys inner thoughts towards the older men and how disgusting they feel to her when they obviously stare at her or try to force themselves on her. I could not immediately remember other games, where it was done so consistently.

Maybe the only thing I would have preferred was more comments towards her first experience with the dick. Think she just said "It's gross"?. Would not mind seeing more more of her negative thoughts towards how it feels/tastes/looks and. Feel like it would be a good contrast later to when she is fully corrupted (if this is the path for her) and how she then actively craves for it and loves their dicks.

As last thing I would comment that I liked to see how Kimberly actively showed her dislike towards any sexual actions and also actively trying to get out of those, especially how she found the excuse to not do things with grandpa for one evening because she could herself watch over her brother. It makes the slow steady corruption all the more rewarding.

Characters:

Can't say too much, have had little time with most of them. I guess the main 3 ones are also the best: Finn, Skroob and Jethro. Also bunch more introduced in short amount of time and honestly could be too many but as long as there is focus on select few, while the rest act as support to the main ones then it will be okay.

Then as a little side comment I also liked how Kimberly was given different clothes for school. I am a sucker for corruption that is shown through changes in clothing as well. Where it can initially get progressively worse at her work places/school and then later carry on to her life outside of it. Like her choosing skimpier clothes willingly in every day life.

It's nice to see a developer so passionate about his project. That always bodes well for reader satisfaction, unless of course, you're one of those who can't understand that not everyone has a Disney budget and retiree time on their hands.

The premise is simple, dark, and fun. It's a "what if..." story that allows one's imagination to run wild with possibilities. The characters are either beautiful, or beautifully wretched. MC is a bombshell who stubbornly persists in her naivete despite every red flag warning that bad people with bad intentions are at hand.

This VN is about a gorgeous gal trying to just get through life, unaware of the fires that she's setting in the hearts, minds, and loins of every man she encounters. SpaceBall1 goes into all those places and pulls that story out and presents it here for everyone to see and enjoy.

The corruption and debauchery is rampant and juicy. One had best be prepared for that upon entry. There are other VN's on this site that take a more realistic look at the subject, but this is intended to be more of a fantasy as one should be able to easily see by the caricatures of the old men. In other words, if you're willing to go in looking for that odd couple of fun and degradation you'll find it here.

3 stars for me cause:

pros:
+ many creepy old man which is very welcome
+ a female mc which has a solid not too doll like face
+ solid renders
+ good english and good visible text
+ not too confusing or too long till some action happens

cons:
- all girls especially the mc could be much curvier (reference here are girls like daval3d girls for example)
- she gives in a bit too easy with no choices and a few choices would make it more spicy
- not a big fan of her haircut even its okay
- not the biggest fan of the other girls faces - but if mc gets improved i wouldn't mind at all


hot kinky idea with a hot kinky direction in solid quality but lacks the final for me personally important touch to be not only content to being able to jerk off to
