Ren'Py - King's Revolt [v0.1.1] [ButtLikeBaoBuns]

very solid for the first release.
Characters:4/5, the MC is quite interesting as a boxer with anger issue that forced by curcumtance (and a part by his own naivity), the LIs that you meet are good, but sadly they are only side LI (that's suck), so I have to munus a point.
Plot: 4.5/5, a clear direction, a clear villain to take down, subplot with the girls is good, the only down side is, this is a harem girl, please don't make us choose
Render: 4,5/5, pleasant to look at, I don't have high expectation anyway
Overall 4,5/5, let see if the dev can keep up next release

This game has all the factors to turn into a great game it's got great mechanics and a good macho storyline if your looking for a game like Race of Life based on brawl go for it i loved it until now looking forward for more of this game

5/5 for me

It's a rather disappointing game to say the least. The characters look good, but thats really where the positives end. The story is nothing new, the writing is poor, both grammatically and mechanically and honestly, its just cringe to read. I cant take a game seriously that uses "do you really wanna find out what im capable of?" unironically. The open world sections are mundane and have zero reason to be in the game. The scenes aren't particularly good either. Maybe this game could turn into something decent, but right now, im not seeing it.

This is an excellent first update with meaningful choices and good game mechanics. The free roam is nice but doesn't overstay its welcome. The side girls are nice and the main LIs thus far seem interesting.

Review for v0.1

The writing is a little goofy/edgy/cheesy at a lot of points, but I've been so sick of games that try to play it safe and end up super bland that this feels a bit fresh in a way. Its got personality. Try not to take this too seriously and recognize the MC as being young, naive, and a bit immature, and I think this has some promise.

This first version is essentially a prologue working up to this "mercenary" premise. The orphan MC lost out on some MMA opportunity and now works for comically evil/shitty people at a shitty company. Everyone is looking to use you to their own gain, you're poor, don't get picked for a promotion you've been working for, life sucks. Then to top it off you get framed for a crime and end up in the slammer. Thankfully a couple girls you've come to know bail you out. It ain't over yet though as your aunt, the one person who's been caring about you, suddenly has heart failure and now you need to find a way to pay for it.

The next part moves a bit fast but essentially the MC finds his old coach, he gets you back with this company that wants to promote you despite his warnings, they throw you into an underground arena fight, and then somehow you are surprised when they ask you to throw the fight because they are also shitty people. By happenstance a group of mercenaries are nearby and their target is the boss of the company that you just signed under. Shit kinda hits the fan, and the version ends with them giving you an opportunity to leave the country and join them with the idea of earning money and changing the world.

You can definitely pick apart some of the narrative. Like I find it a little strange after not training for two years he hops right back into a bunch of fights, and how he kind of forgets about his sick aunt and would have completely jeopardized her situation had those mercenaries not been nearby. I probably would have cared more about the aunt if she was portrayed more than once before the whole incident. So far a lot of this feels very black and white as well.

As far as gameplay mechanics, there exists a paragon/renegade morality system that I'm not sure how I feel about yet. It says you can try to remain neutral, but I'm not sure if there's any benefit to doing so. It also seems some scenes/girls are going to be locked behind whichever path you choose. There's also a mini free roam section but it's mainly for a bunch of collectibles. I think free roams can be fun, but I'd appreciate say extra interactions with characters than item hunting. Extra little texts or calls with love interests for example. There's also a rock paper scissors system during a fight and truthfully I think it's kind of lame and takes away from the intensity of it. I'd prefer options that say 'Punch or kick" for example if anything.

A lot of the characters feel a bit eccentric, but I actually appreciate that they can give the MC shit and mess around with him. The MC isn't instantly some revered figure they all immediately love and don't dare to insult, because yeah he is young and naive and makes stupid choices because of it. Models and renders look nice, and the one sex scene was fine as well.

I'm more interested than anything to see with this game actually does with this team of mercenaries concept, and it only really gets to that at the very end of this version. I hope it gets a little deeper in regards to the plot, less black and white like I mentioned. Could be fun though, just have to see where it goes.

I was Sucked in by the Overview.
The story is interesting the characters are well built

BUT

Once the Affinity or Alignment joins the party
You lose options on choices, you can't remain Neutral

There is only black and white. Either your good(Blue) or your bad(Red)
Reminds me of a different game which was the same reason i quit it.

I can only hope the dev either continues his course and doesn't change or change his course and add's a new option of Neutral being both Good and Bad becoming Gray area.

Good Luck and i hope whatever choice is made its made with sound mind.

King's Revolt [v0.1] review -
Starting with the only positive in the game- its renders - nothing spectacular but better than most Honey select games and female characters look amazing ( Tbh Some side LI look better than main LI ) , moving on the negatives- the story brings nothing new which we haven't seen / played and the writing is poor with the cliche characters , choices / paths locks you out of LI scenes / paths and punishes if you decide to be a neutral ( difficult to play without the walkthrough ) and the gameplay is horrible - free roam ( like get coffee ) where you have to roam around to without any clear indications , labels or arrows even though there is a task list it doesn't help much and you can skip one free roam but another and annoying mini games. Though the renders are good , others are a huge let down , maybe the game will improve in future updates , will update my review if it improves.

Rendering is really well done with interesting models. And as for the story it seems interesting with really well done maledom content with the MC. Honestly excited to see where the story goes as the game gets updated ^^

i decided to give this game a try

3D game with nice female roaster in version 0.1

for starters game have mantadory free roam that almost killed my whole experience as i could not find a coffee for this shit, basically rooom is hidden on purpose and you can't just exit free roam

game have 2 roads at least promise of 2 roads rebel and servant?
game does not tell which dialogue choice gives what, choice is binary and often writen as 2x yes, so i literally have no idea what im chosing

free roam section have collectibles
1st one can not be skipped, but 2nd one can be skipped for some reasons
personally i find game design a bit weak in this game
action is hard to follow or care about:
if you want player to know the character name, make player character meet lady 1st, also whole switching perspectives outside of main character player can control is weird and stupid approach to world building, its like you would watch allien, but than camera switch away from characters into allien and follow him for 30 minutes of the move as he explain everything and where he came from

worst of all because its version 0.1 i had like 20 minutes of gameplay and its very hard to judge based on that
its not like game need to be longer/shorter, i just need more of the game to judge
as for now it can be promissing in the future or never have a future or turn into patreon codes to skip the bad parts

major issue would be display free-roam transitions so i know where to click for next area
i could also enjoy more content

a very promising start. beautiful renders and love interest that are all very different from one another so far. the writing is pretty good aswell.
showing the naked slaves in the villain introduction was good imo, but i think the villains goons didnt need to fuck them. if you want to show the villains dominance over them, you could try to focus on bdsm and obedience/submission of the slaves.
i am really curious to see how the mc develops and how his personality will change over time.
as a sucker for stats, i am glad that we can see our stats/alignment and that the girls have their own screens on the phone, maybe the dev could extent the statscreen for our girls a bit in the future.
overall a really good start, that leaves me excited for more.

Amazing art. Hard to believe it's made with Honey Select. The Love Interests are all hot with unique flavors (If you know what I mean). A very meaty first update with many choices that changes the story, which is a huge PLUS for me. The storyline is still in introductory stage but a lot of development has already taken place and it's very intriguing!

A VERY promising first update. Plenty of lewd scenes already and plot building. Each girl is unique and have very different personalities. And they all look great. Can't wait to collect them in my harem.

Hope that the next updates will have same quality and show more of the girls. Very excited to see MC transformation. Will be supporting this project and I just wish it will gain success and take off!

Interesting and promising start. The dialogue is good and the story flows coherently. Not enough scenes at the moment to judge lewd quality but it looks promising. Story is interesting and the characters are hot.
