VN - Ren'Py - Light of My Life [Ch.9 v0.9.1] [Naughty Road]

I have to say the women not being conventionally attractive (by the standards of Visual Novels) is one of the reasons I really like this game. They look like real women, not some platonic ideal of Nordic beauty with F cup knockers. A lot of thought seems to have gone into the art style of the game. I also like what you've done with the animations, being looped might seem cheaping out in another game, but it really works here with the way its slightly stylised.

That and the excellent storytelling. And it being slow burn is a refreshing change. Unless there is an established relationship the MC really shouldn't be in someone's pants within 5 minutes of starting the game, unless he has hooked up on Tinder (or Grindr) or is paying (Come to think or it, discovering he's related to his hook up would be a good story hook).

And all the characters are full of character, and seem alive, obviously Denise, Macy and Brooke, but even the 3 Fates and the diner owners. Lou has more character than your average blank slate and Charlotte is far more than a footnote.

And there's a lot of laugh out loud moments and little jokes tucked in, like the "Chunky Chicas" ice cream.

ED: more thoughts

Ch.5 v0.6.1

I bounced off this game at first as the game can be somewhat slow, but then I found myself thinking about it a day or two later, wondering what happened next. So I came back to it and I'm glad I did. Is it slow? Sure but it's developing the characters and their situation and gradually drawing you in so that you understand their motivations and why they're doing what they're doing. It feels very real. Also I'm on team "it's nice to see models in a different style than all the other VNs I've played." I recommend it, and I'm glad I gave it another chance.

I've come across this one so many times and passed over it because the game banner/logo/whatever you want to call it...I was like, dayum, these girls are FUGLY! After reading some posts about the game I decided to give it a go, anyway.

So, back to the fugly sisters...once you get into the game, they don't seem as ugly as the game banner makes them out to be. In fact, their appearance started to grow on me. As others have mentioned, it is kind of nice to see someone break out of the norm as far as character models.

This is also a pretty artsy-ish looking game. It really helps set the mood for various scenes.

The thing that really shines in this game, better than 99% of the VNs I play, is the writing and the story. This is probably one of, if not the most, beautifully written VNs I've ever played. I really felt close to each of the characters and what they're going through. On top of that, the dialogue seemed so natural and flowed very well. With most games that start with a warning about being "slow burn" and "more about the story", you would expect to be hit with non-stop walls of uninteresting text. This VN is not the case at all. Not once did I feel like I was encumbered with never-ending dialogue or inner monologues. In fact, I was pretty caught up in the story itself and enjoyed reading, which is something I can't say about most of the VNs I've played. Also, you are rewarded when it gets to the sexy-time stuff. It's definitely slow burn, but the build-up is actually nice and works well.

There are various kinks/fetishes you can explore and none of them are forced on you, either, so that's really nice for people who aren't into certain things.

My only complaint is the bath scene with the sisters while the family is one vacation. I felt it was a little bit longer than it needed to be, but that's probably just my preferences because I don't really get off on lesbian-only content.

Either way, this is definitely a high-quality game with a rich, interesting, story and I'm looking forward to future updates.

Probably one of if not my favorite Games to date.

The story is immersive, the models are beautiful in how natural and real world realistic they are.

The creator has a great balance of Lewd content to character develpoment that I wish more creators would adopt.

One of the few games where I don't feel cheated with the latest version because I know its going to be fantastic. The longer the wait the better it will be, and the more motivation I have to start the game over again and play it through again so I can re-immerse myself into the story.

That being said I do wish the updates were a little more frequent, but you can't rush a good thing.

This is a very well made game. The presentation is excellent, renders are good. The writing is even better than that, it may be the best writing I've seen in a game on these forums. Especially the girl with the anxiety disorder is well presented during her anxiety episodes.The characters (most of them at least) act somewhat like human beings, and are believable in their actions.

The only minus is that the women in this here porn game are quite ugly, which may impede ones ability to acquire a state of sufficient arousal which is necessary to self actuate the process of exuding bodily fluids with violent bursts

4/5

Of all the games I've played in my short time on this site, Light of My Life stands out in the best ways.

1. Story - Like most of us, I came to the site for fap material. I was completely surprised when I started playing LoML and found myself engaged with the story. And surprised again as I played more and went from engaged to compelled. From how realistically and sensitively the topics of personal loss and grief are handled and presented to how the resulting healing process is playing out, LoML is written with an emotional depth that is extremely rare in media in general, much less in "fap material". I'm actually looking forward to seeing how the story plays out, not just waiting for the next round of lewd renders.

2. Character Design - Absolutely unique. This game is a benchmark for how far DAZ assets can be pushed. More time and care was obviously put into the character designs, as opposed to the vast majority of DAZ assets out there that all look and feel pretty same-y. The lack of "bimboification" in this game should be celebrated, and hopefully this will start a trend with new games.

3. Characterization - Unlike most games here that use generic preset poses and facial expressions for their characters, each pose in this game feels very character-specific. Their personalities are clearly evident in every pose and facial expression. The attention to detail is impressive, to say the least.

4. Render Quality - I mean, take a look at the preview images. There are probably a few games on this site that are comparable, but nothing I've seen has surpassed LoML. Absolutely top quality.

In short, this game sets the standard by which I will judge all other games here. Kudos, Naughtyroad!

I really want to enjoy this game but i cant, hence the 2* instead of the 1*.

The good:
- renders are okay
- grammar is good
- Facial expressions clearly evoke an emotion

the bad:
- I heard this had an engaging story and characters.. it does not.
- very repetitive game play loop
- Ugly and derpy looking characters

Like the game A LOT. At first, because autor hits the spot with Macy because for me she looks like mixture of things i like the most - rock bitches and WoW trolls. At second, because story and whole text write damn good without stupid shit. A dozen of times i catch myself on thougt "this autor is really know what he write" That phrase about malnutrition from Sara, or describing anathomy, feelings and other stuff. It's so real and serious that you believe in the story. Exellent work, but shame that i probably won't find something similair and this is a little depressing. But anyway. Thank you/your team for this expirience!

This is one of the few games on this site that I actually think deserves its 5 star ratings. Everything about this game is a cut above the rest.

The writing is easily one of the top 3 games on this site, up there with The last sovereign. Sure it might be a little on the slower side, but the build up creates such a high tension and makes the game very erotic(Kinda hate using that word).And even if it is on the slower side of some games, its realistic and doesn't drag out too long while also rewarding you nicely along the way. The characters actually feel and react like real people which is so rare in adult games.

The art, well you hate it or love it. From a technical standpoint, the renders are flat out great. The lighting, settings and posing are all way above the average game. The models however are a hot contention. When the game came out I wasn't a big fan, and didn't play till the second version, however now this game is the game I recommend when people ask for romance games. The models grew on me that much, and you have to at least commend the dev for trying something so different with is characters.

As for gameplay, its normal visual novel stuff, not much to talk about. Dont fix what isnt broke.

I admit and guilty of, judged the game from the unique character designs. I put it off for a while, saw its further updates and thought to myself "why not, give it a try".

Was looking for some fap material (like almost everyone here does) to make that void bearable. But got somthing else instead. I come from a background of really enjoying quality writings, story and character development so it took me a little bit by surprise and quickly realized there is a lot more to this game and even more so to find it here.

Ill just say it now. If you are looking for a quick fix, a pump and dump so to speak. This is not a game you would enjoy. Nothing wrong with that at all, I some times wonder around for that as well. Just saying.

But if you like well created characters, real quality, development and narrative. Then you will come to like this game a lot. There is still naughtiness to this game of course, but it feels far more natural then others. Some things will be gut wrenching though. Its not on SOMA levels(a masterpiece of a game) but it does shine on its own. I would not be embarrassed to admit supporting this kind of product to anyone. Thats how good the game is, so far, in my opinion.

Going to go dig out my gray goose bottle now, tonight I drink. Some things hit a little too on the nose for me in this game.

I didn't even begin playing the game but just the beginning dialogue was hilarious, it even kicked me out of the game lmfao, I have never encountered this in any lewd game in my life, so just based on that you deserve 10/10 lmao, so if the rest of the dialogue you keep mentioning has the same amount of greatness in it then I will gladly read it lol.
P.S- this is my first time ever writing a review in this site

I hesitated for so long playing this game. Almost a year! And it was all just because of the models. But i can assure anyone with a slight ability to take a story in, and either relate or emphasize on the situation will absolutely love it. It actually enhances the richness in my honest opinion. I even grew to think they were cute and adorable Whatever the relations to your co-charakters, or to real people in life in general. emotions and feelings come either way. Unless your a real wierdo

With that said, the start of the story DOES seem repetitive - But i think thats the point. To get into charakter so to speak. It does change and it wheighs on the story itself. The way "random" things happens with the other charakters in-game is really a nice touch! I absolutely love that! Makes it less platonic, and more realistic and engaeing.

Thats my take on this after my 1st PT.
Dev's update schedule and other things related to that i know nothing about yet, so cannot comment. But i do love the game Kudos to the team
(Sorry for bad spelling and grammar seeing english being my 3rd language)

Overall a great game!
Generally the pace of the game isn't as fast as other games, but the overall content is outstanding with beautiful drawings (other than the standard Daz) and the story is greatly detailed!
The main drawback to mention is the update cycle which is slower than some creators.

I appreciate greatly that this VN is doing something more unique and tells you straight up at the start what you can expect and that it might not be for you. That being said I do not find the models very attractive or the story interesting enough to stick with it. I would've given this 2,5/5 if it was possible.

For someone that wanted to focus on dialogue and story, this game has one of the most boring, repetitive stories I've come across. The first 2 hours of the game you basically replay the same scenes over and over again with shallow, uninteresting dialogue. Hard Pass.

One of my favorite games on the site. The first time i played, i actually don't like the characters faces and bodys but after a while playing i really start liking it. The two daughters are amazing, one more innocent and happy, and the old rebel one ( my favorite btw). can't wait to see the future updates.

Renders: 10/10
History: 10/10 at lest for me
Gameplay: 8/10 if there were more consequences on your choices probably a 10

The game models for sure it's not for everyone, but give a try and support the devs if you have some money to spend.

If anyone dares to touch what you do... Because it's so good! NaughtyRoad you should be very proud of yourself, that few evenings i've spent with your game and girls i will never forget.

Keep it up my dear! Finally some excellent writed and modelled characters, not some freaking boring unnaturally F breasted something, that 99% of games is bombarding us with.

I just love those girls as much as a man can love visual novel girls! Can't wait for next update.

Thank god i've came here by pure accident.

THIS REVIEW WILL CONTAIN SPOILERS

First off i have to say, the starting warning scared me a bit, while I understand the story of this game being far more important than just a usual "go here, do this, fuck that" type of game.

Your warning put a slight fear in me that I wasn't going to not only no have any "content" but i was going to be bogged down with a literal novel of info like i'm playing some browser based HTML game.

Well, you got me to pay attention and holy hell was every second worth it.

I'm not sure what parts really hooked me, but something about how loving this family can be and are really got me.

So lets breakdown some of my favorite bits.


I really enjoyed a change up from the usual white family, even though it doesn't come up or magically change anything in a BIG way it's a nice break from the norm.

I usually name characters in games off of mythology pantheons, so getting to use the Hindu deities as names made above point resonate even bigger.


The oldest daughter's dream revealing her last words to her mother really bring her character fully into view, i enjoy that even early she had such an attachment to her father that made her constantly at ends with her mom.

The youngest daughter's anxiety mirrored a lot of my early years, I am curious to see where the rest of the story goes with her.

Off of this, the museum trip is one of my favorites, foreshadowing some events for our characters but also a neat little twist on the girls in the painting mirroring our own; just flipped.

Where we think the oldest is running the show it turns out the youngest in her own way is pushing the boundaries.


Big spoiler

I liked that seeing that earlier convo with Brooke, something that even with the two options ; I didn't think would really mean ANYTHING actually turned into a huge story pointer when you find out the man you fired was the cause of your wife's death.

I can't wait for more, I need to see where the story goes and branches out to!

P.S: I need more scene's with Macy(?) and what happened when we were drunk at the cabin on the final night!!

Great game, I really liked the graphics, even though it was a little different. There are some very small details that need to improve perhaps a freedom so that the father can walk around the house watching over his daughters. Listening to what they talk about. 5 stars for the quality created!

Honestly I put off playing this game for a year due to the art style. I decided to pick it up during a lull in releases and my god I was blown away.

So much more than just another lewd game on F95. The writing and story is honestly top notch, comparable to established media. It really gets to you and throughout my play I actually found myself seeking progression not for the lewd scenes but for the story.

I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a good story, in addition to the lewd scenes.
