VN - Ren'Py - Lustful College Rework [v0.35] [Tinkel Studios]

Having played the pre-rework and the current (v0.32) version, I can say the following:

This is a really promising production. Before the rework I thought it was a really bland game, but the producer really surprised me.

This game features more than 20 characters and they are all unique! The characters are really beautiful and detailed both before and after the rework. There were characters wearing different outfits every day, different hairstyles and even a scene where one character had a breast reduction surgery before the rework! I will say it's a very good game in terms of characters and uniqueness.

In terms of story depth, I'm quite happy with the way things are going now. The old story had very fast and illogical storytelling, bitches jumping on the male main character on the first day, a main character who was completely incoherent and acting like a bum, it looked really bad. But now the characters and the main character are quite logical and realistic. The main character is a student who is depressed and just realizing what's going on in his life. The girls are much less slutty. And that makes them quite attractive. There are dozens of characters with no scenes yet and I can't wait to see them!

One plus I want to mention is that the game has a lot of heels and they are awesome! I think the developer has a connection with heels and that's really cool! If you are a heel lover this will satisfy you a lot!

I don't blame the developer for the language, he is not a native English speaker and I think he uses a much more understandable language than before. I am pleased about this.

I sincerely wish the game and the producer all the best and you deserve 5 stars from me!

I found very interesting the reworked version. I'll look forward to new updates. The LI's lookin' good but the redhead that we saw on the way billy's home well she is the most beauty i think. Hope to see scenes with her.

Review as of 0.31 rework

Not much content for the rework but the improvements seen are very promising from what I can see of the old game.

The Li' models look good. The renders are good. And it looks like the dev is taking criticism well. I look forward to future progress.

I'm currently giving a 4 out of 5 for it's potential.

The rework looks promising. The game is visually more beautiful and the characters are all sexy. Especially the teachers. The rewrite also offers a slightly more interesting and less messy scenario, I feel. I'm waiting to discover the rest, but it's all very positive so far!

I like the game's visuals and the dev seems to really care about the game. The problems i had with the older game is pretty much all gone with the rework. I like the game's direction and even if the story's not really my cup of tea, it got a whole lot better in the rework as well. Wishing the dev good luck!

I've just finished the rework, and I must say it's truly incredible. There's an amazing transformation compared to the old game. The game feels alive not just around the main character, but within itself! The story has become much more beautiful and realistic. And it seems that the bipolar behavior of the main character from the old story is gone. I'm eagerly looking forward to the new version with its truly beautiful story.

Apparently I haven't reviewed this before. Probably because I only review stuff I am annoyed by.
Review as of v0.30 hotfix... Though if you used semantic versioning you wouldn't have to do something as silly as put the word hotfix in the version.

I started a new game, because my memory is trash, and I'm 90% confident the intro was redone. I would say it was improved. I remember a vaguely annoying choice like having to be submissive towards some lady or get kicked out, though it could be from something else, and there was nothing like that this time. Also some nice animated walking scenes were added. Not super my thing, but a solid tease.

I kinda dislike games where I can't get every scene, because then I have to fork my save file, and my memory is way too bad to remember which file is which and why I have it like that. But there is a replay gallery, which does help with that.

Scrollback works, and preferences works normally, both a plus. Also, right click goes directly to save, also a plus. I can save on every scene that looks erotic.
Textbox transparency is also adjustable, a plus, because text is hard to read for some of us.

Honestly forgot it said rework in the title- or rather, I knew, I just didn't expect it to *actually* be reworked this much. Pretty good rework as a whole.
The annoying girl became more annoying. I thought an annoying plot line wouldn't happen, but the cause and effect just changed.
Apparently the rework is still in progress, so I can't review much past the introduction, but it seems worthwhile, and like it improves the English as well. Good luck!

I don't know if English wasn't the creators first language but it was pretty hard to get through, some of the animations are pretty decent though so it might be worth checking in again after a few updates later.

The main premise of the game is nonsensical, but it isn't much better even if you accept to suspend your disbelief for the sake of porn. First, the MC is completely bipolar. A sadist asshole with some girls and a little shy virgin girl with others. He'll go from completely dominating one girl to sweating and blushing from a kiss on the cheek.

The renders are below average and most of it seems to have been half-assed. You can't even read some of the text because it's just white and every render looks blown-out white.

Last, but not least, all the characters are completely one-dimensional. They have one thing that makes up their entire being and don't behave like humans. The dialogue and storytelling are subpar, even if you look past the childish writing.

I'm sure some people would be willing to look past all the glaring mistakes from this game if the dev could at least write the characters like human beings. The MC in particular needs to be wiped out from existence and completely remade. As it stands, he just comes off as some lunatic NPC.

I have updated my score to 4 stars since the game has been reworked. The story is way better, I don't cringe anymore and the characters are interesting so far. Honestly I am impressed with the developer's ability to listen to feedback and improve his work.

Graphics also look somewhat better than the original, the game so far is good but I will keep five stars to myself until there is more content available since currently there is not a lot of H-content.

Keep up the good work! I truly think the game is now on a good path towards success!

Old Review:

Tried to play this game but the script feels really poorly written. The interactions are childish and feel written by a horny 13yo teen who does not yet understand realistic interactions with girls. The whole thing just feels really low effort.

However, the developer seems new and seems to care about improving so I will be keeping an eye on this in the future

This game needs a hard rework. It seems like dev doesn't know what he wants in his game. The story is a mess, the characters models looks generic and horrendous at times. They are also sluts and whores. (No real or actual female, just sexdolls lmfao). Mc have multiple personalities disorder with no character of himself. Useless choices forcing you to replay. This is such a kinkiest but so annoying that it's unplayable. Sophia was probably the only good written character compared to other characters here. I don't think this game will survive if Dev doesn't change things.

Ok remade my review since game has changed so much that its no longer the same game it started out as, its no longer a fuckfest game, but still has forced stuff you might not want to see, like an old fat ugly bimbo with huge saggy tits riding a dildo, or MMF scene (not wth MC but still), ive given it one more star since it has improved.

Anyways as for story:
It starts off pretty bad to me, im a dom player and i dont really like playing the submissive type in a game and the start gives that submissive feeling when a teacher kisses MC and he goes all shy, it dident help that your just shown the headmisstress using the girls in the school as sexual slaves or thats what your made to think, that only makes me want to put her ass her place, get her fired or blackmail her, but not ever into sex with the MC though since shes just not my type in any way, but would like to put her in her place, or make her a slave/pet but again not for sex of any kind lol.

Theres a few more places where wish MC would say fuck off bitch to a girl saying she would cut off MCs balls if he starts anything.

What i really hate though is the MCs mindset , no matter the if the girl is old, young, fat, tin, huge bimbo or small tits, MC thinks "shes very attractive" or "damn shes hot" it just ruins it for immersion players since they cant put them selfs in the shoes of the MC like they want when the MC thinks like that about girls they hate or find to be ugly.

And another side thing to that is also when MC thinks "man shes sooo hot" and your then given a choice to go on her path or turn her down and you pick turn her down, it feels a bit idiotic story wise since MC has been lusting for her or thinks shes so hot, so it wouldent make sense to dump her from the story aspect.

The diversity in builds are also not really my taste, its big tits after big tits, granted there are normal and smaller ones in game to but it feels like main focus is on big tit fetish which im not into, that could be ok if the story is good enough and i dont really know if it is yet.

Animations are pretty good for this type of characters.

Music needs a bit of work, it was silent most of the game, then out of nowhere music started playing, so yeah needs a bit more work.

It does seem to me game is becoming more about having choices which it wasent in the first releases so thats very good progress in my eyes.

As for content i would say its a bit early yet, theres no relationships or sex scenes yet wth MC but it i think that will change soon in the next few updates.

For story im still not sure if its becoming a dom MC or a sub MC or maybe there will be a path for both, we will see.

A good game. An diverse range of characters and cast with some variation based on choices.
This game could be pretty damn great decent eliments and choices. Just needs ore content wise, which I'm sure will be added with time.

I normally don't do this, but I quit about a half hour in - around the start of the third school day I believe. It's almost frustrating. There are some surface level things that I like, such as the character models. But MAN is it rough. It is the devs first project it sounds like, so some of that is to be expected. No one starts off pristine. But this will need a lot of polish and rewriting.

First off, was excited to see that its an actual College setting and not a high school like most of these. But its really just in the name. Nothing about the writing of these characters says they are college age.

The writing for the MC is ALL over the place. As soon as he meets the principal, they immediately decide to plan to blackmail her for sex. Shortly after that you're being rough with a girl (named Dream) you just met 5 minutes ago in the school bathroom, immediately treating her like a cock sleeve. 5 minutes later dude masturbates to a selfie of a girl on his phone and gets sad because he thinks that was a terrible thing to do. (THAT was the terrible thing you regret that you've done so far??) He is also for some reason flabbergasted that everyone is looking at him all the time - the only male in an all-girls school. The next day you have a choice to meet with Dream again where you treat her like shit and slap her in the school hallway, or follow this stranger girl who caught your eye, sees her being kissed by another girl against the wall, and the dude thinks he needs to play hero because he believes she is obviously being molested. The dude is a fucking idiot. It's like they couldn't decide if they wanted the typical guy guy MC or the asshole MC who see's all holes as a place to put his rod, and so they tried to combine them.

Meanwhile somehow nearly ALL of these girls are into this piece of shit of a human, on sight. There is 0 relationship development. All these girls fall into 3 types. The "romantic types" decide within a couple lines that he is a really nice, hot guy. The "sex crazed masochists" who decide they want to be this dudes pet within minutes. And the crazy bitches who hate this guys guts immediately. This MC bothers me SO much, that typically my least favorite characters (the ones who are crazy mean bitches for no reason) are actually my favorites here.

With these kinds of games, there is always some level of suspending disbelief. But man.. these characters just don't act like real people. They don't talk to each other like real people. There is 0 actual relationship development, so the sex scenes that are there (which are decent, for what it's worth) do not feel earned.

I highly recommend the dev looking at similar, popular works to learn from. Don't copy paste - learn from them. Really pay attention. Maybe read up on how to write characters that feel real - there is tons of free material out there. Writing is hard, never stop trying to learn how to get better at it.

I'll keep an eye on this one but it'll be a while before I come back. The MC and everything to do with them is such a huge turn off here. He is like a mix of 3 different MC archetypes mixed into one, in an entirely dysfunctional way. There is just so little cohesion from scene to scene.

Good luck on the project.

The english used is not only terrible but at times borderline unreadable with some lines repeated almost within 6 text boxes. The story janks about, suddenly drop protag into a halloween party even though the protag has not meet all of the characters at the event he acts as if he does. The author also shows a poor understanding of BDSM is that is what they are going for. Also, a couple of the girls have faces only their mother could love, however some such as Summer are drop dead gorgeous.

Full of tons of 'ur' rather than 'you're' type slang in regular conversations, guy says 'XD' rather than laughing at one poiont, not when characters are texting.
Jarring. Like 90% of the text is fine then its like the author just didn't care to have his characters talk like actual people.

What we have are totally average koikatsu models, above average effort put into the sex scenes and absolutely abysmal, nonsensical, weirdly paced writing, where things just sort of happen because they do, you have no real control beyond "Which of these 3 girls should I go try to molest" and the options you do get are really weird.
5 seconds into arrving to school MC is always contemplating blackmailing the principal into sex, every girl he sees he's instantly thinking about fucking, he's constantly borderline or actually rapey in every sex scene, yet we get an option to be a sub? The fuck? Also all but 2 girls so far are subs or 'vanilla but can be made to sub'. Why we getting an option that's 100% against both the MC and nearly every other character in the game? Confusing.

Speaking of the MC, very unlikeable. He's a total dick and barely comes off as an actual person. He has no backstory explaining why he's happy to rape people except maybe because the principal also does that. Why does she do that? How does she get away with it? Who knows! No time to explain characters thoughts or personalities ('wants dick' is not a personality), need mc to contemplate ass size some more.
The girls are largely interchangable for the same reason. Either their only thought is fucking the mc, they hate him OR they hate him THEN want to fuck the mc. Very interchangable and the models aren't good enough to differentiate them either, except the one girl who has a weirdly realistic face skin that stands out like a sore thumb.

Story will casually introduce magic phones, magic walls, have the principal be tying up students naked, etc, all completely unexplained as is and bot the MC and everyone else doesn't seem to care at all. Too busy thinking 'dick' or 'ass' respectively

Right now this game is 'functional', but a far cry from good.
For one thing it could use some actual backstory for the mc to explain his behavior (IS he a convicted rapist? DOES he have an actual brain?), explanation about the apparent lack of any laws (IS the principal just allowed to rape her own students or dress them up near naked on her whims?) or just have literally anyone at all ever act like an actual person capable of thinking with any stimulus beyond lust.

damn, how much has changed compared to the first version. The first version caught my attention. In such a short time, both the content and the improvement update, I guess I didn't expect such a change. The dev seems pretty ambitious.

The content count is satisfactory enough for the current version and situation.
The old renders felt lame, but the game now has much better renders.
The models are quite good and diverse, it's quite difficult to choose a favorite.
It's clear that the game won't be just about sex and that a deep or simple relationship is established with each character.
The variety of clothing in the game, as well as the taste of the developer, was also something that caught my eye and I liked.

The dev's passion makes this game with enough potential for me. I'm following for future updates. I hope he continues with the same passion.

eggcelent game, cant wait for more content.

its a multiple path game, will require you to play again from the start if you want to get some scenes that you never will see otherwise.

right now it ends really early, but that's expected it being a 0.1.5, and if someone bish about the graphics, they just dont like that engine and thats it.

This game has great potential. I played the first version, and now I've played version 0.1.5. I can sincerely say the game has improved.
+
Graphics are better.
Characters are detailed and have their own personality.
Game is not sandbox VN is pretty cool.

The game has a balanced and consistent reward system, so you don't have to play for hours on end to see the scenes.

Language is pretty cool but not enough.
