VN - Ren'Py - Life in Windvale [v0.2] [Vol_games]

[v0.2]

Nothing about it really blows me away, but I can't find any faults. I simply enjoy it. Think of this as a 4.5 rating rounded down for lack of a wow factor. Content is also limited at this point. Maybe if a lot gets added and nothing gets worse, I'll upgrade to 5 stars.

It's not for you if you're a hard no to:
AI art
Netorase, including multiple penetration
Absurdly built women
Absurdly built men
Porn logic and humor
Incest
Old man sex

My favorite and least favorite aspects have to do with the art. It's good quality AI art, in my opinion, but I'm turned on by more realistic bodies.

AI cgs are very divisive, and rightly so. I personally believe that AI is a tool that can be used by artists for their work, not as a replacement, but as a way to enhance their art.

Life in Windvale looks good. Really good. I only played through it once but I didn't notice anything out of place or hanging artifacts in the characters or backgrounds.

The main girl is just.... wow. Tough to not stare at. If she ticks your boxes, your probably going to like this game, and I haven't been able to stop thinking about her since playing through the game earlier today.

The scenes are sparse as this is a first version, but what's there is good.
The pacing seems pretty well balanced, so far, as well. We get a story with some characters and then into some action all within 5 or so minutes. Nothing feels forced and there's enough here to keep players engaged in between scenes without being too heavy handed.

This game has an incredibly bright future and I'll be checking daily for updates. Seriously, if this game gets abandoned I'm going to be very annoyed.

If you aren't turned off by AI art and are turned on by bombshell tomboys, give this game a look. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Unexpectedly very good game.

Writing is very good, I like how wife is consistently slutty with a kind side that cares deeply about you. I like characters like this because I always wonder if she really loves me or loves that I let her be a slut while with me and it's so hot.

The art is very good, there is some shading issues here and there, but it made me nut on the first update, so I like it.

Also, what the fuck is 1GB for v0.1? That's crazy! I wonder how big is finished version.

0.1 for this Netorase VN doesn't waste time and gets right into the action, and I love that. There are plenty of slow burners out there if you're looking for something like that. Here we dive headfirst into the idea of netorase and sharing.

The FMC looks gorgeous, although with some tits and thighs that are a tad bit exaggerated, and her personality is really energetic so far. The MC too looks good, and the buddies that have been introduced so far indicate some bbc, gangbang, and sharing action on the horizon.

Really strong start with this one, opening the game like that is a bold move but can't say I didnt like it, the game is gets into the action from the get go but actually gives a really good narrative reason why, doesnt divolge from the theme even after the initial "shock" and generally seems really promising

Pro's
- You dont have to wait for half a year for stuff to happen, there is already NTS content in it and probably not what you'd excpect from a first release
- The dialogue is on point, precise and doesnt make you wanna skip any of it, its a really nice read.
- Pacing is interesting cant exactly tell you without spoiling but it is fast pace in the good sense, even slow burn fans are going to like this one if you stick with it I believe
- Illustrious as an ai tool is really handy to use and it shows in quality and time efficiency so thats good development wise
- The intro tells me the developer is nice and chill and dedicated to delivering a good product

Neutral
-Body proportions, a lot of girls (not all of them) including th fmc have huge tits, that's something that some people will like and some wont, it shows from the promo picture so this is not a critic just letting you know

CONS
-There is animation used with ai tools like twice in randoms scenes, not sex scene mind you, its good but its laggy, I know its not my PC so something need to be fixed there I think
-Run into some scrip errors, the dev should have the script proof checked before posting the game but since its a first release and game its understandable and ok

CONCLUSION
As of right now, the game has already action, nice characters and interesting dynamics, if you like netorase + swinging and some stepcest along the way you should already give it a try and see that it has promise. atm its not a 5 star due to technical issues (still a 4.something) but it was such a good start might as well the reviews start as such
