VN - Ren'Py - Misanthropy [v0.45] [Cosmic Poptart]

Well written and polished...

The game so far v5.0 has no defects, the characters are very well done whether in design, personality or involvement in the plot.

Mom ntr has to be very well worked out for the player to be bothered by the situation, and here it does it correctly, the scenes are very well done with a great variation, there is animation, sound and the dynamic of ntr by message is very good too.

Dont let the art fool you, it may looks bad on the first look, but its actually pretty good. Mainly the facial changes etc are really good. The main female character is very erotic. Too many games depict older women with tits defying gravity, here they have some weight that comes with age.

Anyway even if you dont find the artwork good, the writing is very capable. Better than most ntr you can find (though ntr generally doesnt have good writing sadly). I found myself glued to it and really enjoyed my time.

There is already enough content, even though the game only had half a year of development so far. The dev posts regular monthly updates and the corruption has already progressed to a satisfying place. It doesnt feel too rushed either (I mean sure, there is some porn logic, its impossible without it).

Really recommended. Hidden gem from a dedicated dev. Cheers.

Great game, great writing. Even if it's based on the usual NTR tropes, the writing makes it more realistic and much more relatable than what is usually the case with these kinds of games. So far so good.

Also, the art is actually very nice. It is unique and expressive. The style might not be for everyone, but I suggest giving it a try.

There's two things why I am still a little ambigious about a game that I should legitimately be raving about:

1. While the art is good, there's art missing at crucial moments. I know it's hard to make art, but if you leave it out when it counts, it's better not to do the scene. For example, the H scene between David and the blonde bimbo BF is completely text only with a black screen and given how important it is, that's actually unforgivable.

2. The boobs. I know men like exaggeration. I know this is a 99.99 male centric porn business. But seriously, they look hideous and unwieldy. Especially for the mother.

Simply put, another hidden gem.

For a game with an NTR theme, the believability of the story is key, and this game nails it.

A strong narrative is a big plus for adult games, but there are other games that also tell good stories. So, what makes this one worth highlighting?

It’s because the storytelling here doesn’t rely on flashy dialogue or convoluted plot twists. Instead, it leans on the characters’ personalities. Each character has their own motivations and goals, which is something that’s hard to pull off in these kinds of games. Usually, it’s either one smart character surrounded by idiots, or everyone’s a fool.

What impressed me about this game is that everyone’s actions make sense. The characters aren’t just puppets moving the story along. Even the seemingly clever ones can mess up, the foolish ones have their own emotions, and the cowardly characters can still be stubborn. The personalities are diverse but true to each character. In short, they don’t dumb down the characters just to serve the plot. How many stories can avoid that mistake?

If I had to point out a flaw, it’s that the game’s strength lies in its writing. The artwork is just functional, but it’s enough. Personally, I’m all about the story—if the story is good, everything else is secondary.

8 / 10
With different visuals, it could be one of the best games on this site.
(v3.5)

Writing is not what you'd expect looking at these 'low effort' pictures. Certainly not what I was expecting.
It is great.

- Not perfect - there are some problems with the pacing.
...Probably because of non-existent visuals - so everything hot is in the writing. And only writing. Every bit of character building outside of teasing, dirty-talk, and sex-scenes themselves feels like it drags for too long. Precisely because there's nothing to look at during it.

- It's not groundbreaking either - pretty standard NTR tropes for you. Ugly limp-dicked boyfriend, unsatisfied wife.

+ But it is solid. And it is meticulous.
Husband/boyfriend, while ugly and limpdicked - and there won't be any hot sex scenes with them - they are not disgusting. At least they behave like normal pleasant people.
Girlfriends/wife, while cheating, they are not disgusting. They are complex, cute, and pleasant to be around. Have interesting past, complicated present, and non-obvious future.

+ Antagonists: not the most intense guys ever, but very meticulous. Don't pull out magic mind-altering machine out of their hat. They have to work for it, plan, and sometimes even fail.
...And I can't remember the last time an ntr antagonist has failed in anything - so yeah, refreshing. Makes the story less predictable.

+ Humor is nice too. Love it.

- Now visuals are... simply horrible.
I don't understand why the author won't just use 3D - Koikatsu or Honey Select if he doesn't have the hardware to render.
It'll literally take less effort, while producing better results.
...Unless he just wants to practice his drawing skills. On us.

Sound:
+ Music's good-ish. At least during sex scenes and intense moments it's great. Normal everyday music could be annoying.

+ There are also some sounds. Blowjob, moaning, and so on. Which is very good. It always adds to the atmosphere and the hotness of the scene.
But.
It's way quieter than the rest of the sounds, for some reason - like the banging of the door that will blow your ears off if you amp your volume for the blowjob.
And it's inconsistent in quality. Which is, I guess, better than nothing at all.

Overall:
Very solid writing that sometimes gives you unexpected curveballs - which is much appreciated in the genre.
Highly recommend.
And will expect the author's future works with anticipation. This one included.

V0.35
Wife/Mom Corruption? Yes please!

This is a gem.

This game completely blew me away and outdid expectations. I think this is proof that the most important thing in these games isn't necessarily the highest quality images and art, but it's the storyline and writing that really makes a good game. The characters and the writing in this one is excellent, and the art/sound etc is still pretty nice too.

Can't wait for the rest of this story

Despite this being a kinetic novel, and at this point it very much still is, this is pretty solid. It has a slow burn and an unpredictable plot. The character writing and dialogue is topnotch.

There are points where it is suggested that choices could be added at a later time. Which is certainly interesting.

Good:
sound: good
visuals: enough to make you coom
story: corruption done right
mechanics: lmao no, you get everything. Just read and enjoy!

Suggestions:
a way to remove the text box. Text alone is fine and I hate spamming H every frame. Give me the option to remove the box

5/5 simple yet charming

This Is honestly really really good, and I am looking forward to new releases, which I didn't think I would ever say about a kinetic novel. By far the best kinetic novel I have ... played? and I would recommend it to anyone who Isn't instantly turned away by the kinetic novel tag. The story Is good and fun, the art Is good too, and Its paced well enough

One of the best homemade ntr's and this is only the beginning. There's so much charm to this work I can't explain!!

The character writing is S-TIER. I've played so many ntr games and this one feels so... NATURAL and ... it's like you're watching a tv production. I just cant help but smile and be entertained , u can't get bored reading this!!; the way he utilizes renpy to the best potential he can as a beginner to make it immersive. The way character sprites react, move, 'animate' adds to their dialogue (which is a lot).

I was pleasantly surprised to actually like Tiffany! (the gyaru/abused gf of the Hayden). She has a lot of depth behind what initially seemed like 'slut abused airhead gf'. There's a moment later when the other antagonist (business guy, orange hair) ---- god it felt like watching tv! idk. it's just good writing, I felt so immersed. I hope that Tiffany gets a redemption arc or some good moments to help mc out or something;; it sucks she just gets abused by everyone

and this one is so unique! I've never seen an antagonist for the main antagonist; it makes u root for hayden somewhat at some points.

I even LOVE Hayden's dynamics and chemistry with pretty much all the ladies. The mom, REN (ESPECIALLY), and Tiffany.
The art will get good over time, but the story and characters, presentation; S-TIER potential of ntr.

Also, the main menu as teaser for what's to come is GENUIS!! Awsome work creator!!

The art might not be everyone's cup of tea and is lacking in quantity department. However under it all, it is a great game with satysfying corruption, interesting characters and quality writing. The game is definitely a gem and a must play for NTR connoisseurs.

Trully excellent! A well written slow burner where the corruption is not too over the top and is at least somewhat believable (compared to your average game).

I especially like the character of Ren and can't wait to see her fall for the antagonist.

Great job, really eager to see more of it.

Review of Misanthropy [v0.2]

What is this? A slow burn netorare with pretty good dialogue?
You don't see that often

Good points:
Very gradual progress, this really isn't a fuckfest right from the beginning.
Dev is clearly taking his time building relationships between
protagonists - so that the inevitable demolition is that much more impressive.
the erotic content that is there doesn't feel forced, the guy stealing the girls clearly has to work for it.
And I mean what can I say about him, he is such a manipulative
asshole - pretty much perfect for this kind of story
Main girls are hot and thankfully there aren't too many of them,
story has tight focus on the mother and the childhood friend.
There are very few signs of the famed hentai logic in the writing (so far at least), hope it keeps up.
Also the main menu is really creative, although a bit confusing at first,
it gives a taste of what is to come which is appreciated

Now for some nitpics:
The art is good, but not amazing, it gets the job done
The character of the husband and son (especially the husband) are
cartoonishly pathethic, I mean sure it is a staple of modern NTR, but this
takes me out of the story a little. Still this is just my personal preference
Also one thing that really bothered me - it is the sprite of the wife
in casual clothes, why are her breasts like that when she is supposed to
be wearing a bra? Her work uniform looks perfectly fine, what is going on here!?

Overall incredibly strong start, sure hope the work gets attention it deserves

Frankly, it's an absurdly good start for a new dev. This is equal to and clearly takes some inspiration from the very best Japanese MILF corruption games/doujins.

Not only that but it's like she's built in the EXACT type of MILF I absolutely adore. Sagging tits, pubic hair and a willingness to cheat based on her sexual desires and not coercion.

I have a feeling this will become one of the gold standards for NTR games on this site and I welcome further updates.

Congrats, Dev!!!
