VN - Ren'Py - Moonlight [Ch.1 v0.16] [BigBat_Productions]

This looks really promising. Like, promising enough to be my next obsession. I'm especially happy to see a LI selection that isn't just 20 white girls in different wigs. The plot is simple and gripping enough to follow along with the girls. While you meet all of the girls fairly early, it's done well and sits with the plot just right.

I think scene transitions and some dialogue (as well as choices) need polishing for this to be the next big thing, though.

Like, it's strongly implied that the MC dislikes Akari and considers her attitude sexual harassment, but choosing to go along with her advances plays out like they've been occasionally hooking up. Same with Charlie and how fast that "friendship" turns sexual/romantic in nature. All that stuff happen too fast for the beginning. Maybe some dialogue that implies MC did have a personal involvement with Akari and/or Charlie before the events of the game would go a long way to make those routes feel more natural.

Also, for the love of god, Jack needs to lay off the fart jokes.

Really strong start. Beautiful models and great renders. It doesn't take long for you to see the deep connection between MC and some of the girls in his life. I love the neural implant focused society and the heavy cons it focuses around. This one has potential to be a great one and I hope the dev keeps up the great work.

I like it. It starts really smooth and opens a lot of doors in many directions. The story seems solid and is next to Artemis a beautifully crafted and story rich game set in a interesting world. Hope it stays grounded and doesn't get to extreme in any direction. Good work.

The game has very little content at the moment, but I see potential.

Unfortunately I didn't find any of the LIs attractive, the ones I liked the most were Charlie and Akari, but they are thicker than I would like, especially when it comes to Asians.
I would really prefer if Akari had another Asian model, she seems to be the most interesting and fun character.

About "the friend" and Sophia, Sophia is ugly, maybe the dev made her that way so that players wouldn't be interested in her, fortunately, I'm not one of those interested, but I would prefer it if there weren't these choices where I have to lower myself to help the friend with Sophia, It's okay to help a friend with the girl he likes, but if the price is to reduce myself, then I personally wouldn't do it.

It's still too early to judge the plot.

The current game is a 3.5, but since it's not possible to give that score, I'll round it up to four.

Getting some Equilibrium vibes...

The story is sound, the sound too. It is a great start and I hope the developer will keep the aim he set for himself by releasing such a good initial release. Hope for the best!

I'm absolutely loving the game so far—everything from the stunning visuals to the smooth and engaging gameplay is top-notch. It's clear a lot of care and creativity went into making this. I genuinely can't wait to see what new content, features, and surprises are in store. Super excited for all the upcoming updates and everything the future holds for this amazing experience!
