Ren'Py - My New Neighbors [v1.80] [Rmaximus]

> mandatory to spend time with every girl before increasing a single one's corruption level
> gaining affection is very grindy and unintuitive
> story is awful
> character is railroaded
> haphazard Honey Select models constantly clip into themselves when moving
> most women are already corrupted (sluts, strippers, etc.) so transforming them into demons is redundant
If you still want to play for the sex scenes, this game isn't worth the enormous download unless the developer
i) fixes the models
ii) lowers affection requirements

It cannot even be considered a game. A correct description would be a demo of a generic stub of a renpy game that you could do with Honey Select. All, and I mean all, animations are the native Honey Select animations, which means that the developer didn't put any work at all on animations but simply pressed play on Honey Select and recorded the screen. There is no story whatsoever, as has already been said. You give the girls magic corruption potions and boom, they're blowing MC's cock. Do not recommend in any way. Just play Honey Select directly at this point and make your own girl at least.

This is another game that's bare bones and uses premade Honey Select models & animations. The story is thin: a family of nudists move in next door, but they're actually demons. They make you into a demon which means you're a nudist now. You then go about corrupting every female around you into the same big breasted cock hungry slut in your harem by giving them drinks from a magic potion.

There's nothing much else to say. The premade assets make the situations stiff and lifeless. As you can see on the banner, there's a couple dozen characters, but nobody stands out. You just hang around their boring lives until you can feed them the magic potion so they become huge titty cock hungry sluts.

You'd think the demon thing would matter, that there'd be some friction there, but not really. It's just a pretense to do the same thing with each pre-made female. It's boring, shallow, and dumb. I mean, it's porn, but it doesn't have to be boring shallow and dumb. I could just watch regular porn and skip the grind.

Because the gameplay is really, really shallow and opaque. You raise affection points by clicking the right button at the right time and letting dreadfully dull scenes play out. It's hard to know when and what criteria you have to meet to advance the story. It's poorly put together, premade slop.

despite few bugs here and there (all can be squashed with mods) the game is awesome, characters relatable, and I'm speaking for myself but think I speak for all - would be a dream to be the protagonist in such a game (or life hah)

Boring and repetitive
Boring color palette
Bland graphics with the same stock cookie cutter characters from other games.
Most certainly isn't worth the over 8Gb download size.
Doesn't seem to have a meaningful direction....
Silly.
Should have been finished a long time ago.

Renders are quite below average. Story doesn't even't try to be a good pretext for a fuck fest. The sandbox of the game is unintuitive and badly designed.
Girls are mostly average. The body types are correct and sometimes good, but faces and details are quite bad, which lowers the feeling of them to an average level.

Perfect example of what happen when you make too much girls, possibilities, routes, and interactions... The game is way too scattered and complicated, this is becoming counterproductive and rather a malus than a bonus.

Nothing is bad here, but also not good, the game is okayish but as mentioned before and by other people this is just "too much" and it doesnt help the game.

Try to keep things simple and clear, choices are nice, liberty also, but it's not going well with the lore, because of interactions you are forced to follow a path, because the lore dictate it. So what's the point of being free if you are forced to follow a path.

Animation: Some really sleek movement in this one,
Story: Nothing too crazy and gives room to many many developments
Scripting: Pretty basic and a few grammar errors but easy to understand
This is a pretty fun sandbox. Lots of women to find and corrupt. A wide variety of scenarios and the grind isn't too punishing like some games. Very enjoyable

Great game, very direct to the scenes which is great but also the "lore" that almost goes to background is pretty much consistent... personally I would prefer a little more work on the faces of some characters (Abigail and the lizard girl) but that's subjective

9/10

Wish u luck, dev!

As of V1.20

PROS

• Lot of girls so you'll find a few you'll like
• Interesting premise
• Some likable characters

CONS

• A lot of unnecessary characters.
• Bugs
• Forced routes, reactions & scenes

CONCLUSION

This started off good, nice premise and an option to get rid of the NTR. However you are quickly forced down every route available. Hate a girl? Tough you'll be needing to do her route to get to the one you actually wanted to see.
If you want choice or any kind of control over the MC then don't bother there'll be characters that piss you off and you'll be forced to like it, if you just want the scenes then skip the dialogue.

The game is too convoluted to play without the guide. The problem is that "the guide" is just as convoluted as the game itself. The "guide" is like a fucking rosetta stone. Making a game that requires this level of tediousness, without an in game guide is dumb. Playing the same scenes over and over again is a goddamn, groundhog day, nightmare. I don't want to have to learn your secret code to play your mediocre game.

Character models are pretty standard for Illusion's HS/HS2 engine, but that's not even close to my complaint here. I love that engine. No, my main gripe is gameplay. As for gameplay, it's a bit rough and slowmoving. More along the lines of repeating most scenes for no reward because you didn't pick the "right" scene that comes next in order. It says "Sandbox", but it felt super linear because of the limitation I described. More like a faux-sandbox. I played for a few hours, but didn't get very far. I did watch MC peep on his mom in the shower a ton, though...

A little grindy, but grown with lots of content!

There's an actual plot and some feels with the bog standard ‘boy gets big dick and conquers his world’ plot. There's asylum-seeking demons, some frank discussions about identity death and the meaning of family, and hints of a larger world conspiracy. There's also a lot of body modification, breast enlargement, and sex.

This is a Great game if you like Big boobs. The story is not bad i am kindoff invested in to the story and am exsited to se where it goes next. The transformation in the start is quite straight forward with later once you get some choices that seems logical to that caracter in some sense. The gameplay it self isnt to bad with not too mutch grinding there is some but not so mutch that it feels annoying. I would rate the game 9/10

Look, I admit, this game is not perfect, by any means. If it wasn't for me being such a fan of breast and ass expansion, I'd be much harsher on this game. However, there aren't that many games as focused on breast and ass expansion, especially with a corruption theme. Therefore, an otherwise competent, albeit click filled game, that does this kink/flavor well is certainly deserving of four stars. If your thing isn't breast and ass expansion, this is really three stars, maybe 3.5 stars because the plot is slightly above average.

Version Played: 1.10
Time Played: About 2.5 hours, did not reach the end of content

As Honey Select always causes me to take another glance, I did a bit of reading in the thread here, and was pleasantly surprised to see that there was an NTR route planned. The overall plot seemed fun and goofy (you essentially become an incubus), so I downloaded the game and was off to the races. Unfortunately, the grindy content, nonsensical body changes on corruption and wonky english really put a damper on the experience.

Positives
+ Hot cast (if you dig HS that is. Still, I don't know if it's possible to create an eldritch horror in the engine)
+ Abundant content with simple gameplay...

Negatives
- ...that's repetitive as hell due to the grind
- Due to said grind, the content feels like it's drip-fed and, while there are a lot of girls, just getting even a hoo ha shot of someone means click after click of repeating the same inane conversations ad nauseum

The game is a corruption game, but every time you move a character up one level, their tits and ass grow. Why? The game starts with a nice assortment of body types, but before long, everyone is stacked. This just feels weird when you can just let the women keep their original body type and still make them hornier and I say this as a dude with a preference towards thiccer ladies.

While I am holding out hope that I might like this more once the NTR route begins to be integrated, I can't really say there's a lot to recommend the game at this moment. If you've exhausted all the other Honey Select, only relevant dude, bangathons yet still can't get enough of that kind of content then, sure, give it a try, but everyone else can probably keep scrolling without missing a "hidden gem."

Note to Devs: I would really recommend cutting down the grind since clicking through to the right time only to read the same dialog box over and over again is just objectively not fun and it sure as hell isn't sexy. You've clearly put a lot of time into development, but please try to consider your players' time and enjoyment a bit more. That said, I am looking forward to trying out the NTR route once implemented.

Where to start? This is my first time writing a review. I haven't completly finished the last update but i'm bout 90% done with it i think. Ok here goes The story i give it 5/10 because most of it is repeat dialog you have to reach 4 sometimes 5 coruption point before they turn and you have to talk to the girl 5 times to get 1 coruption point so yeah alot of repeat dialog next is the sex scenes 7/10 they are good i like the motion of the sex but it lacks dialog and sound effects plus most scenes do not have differnt angles and is short. but good enough to fap to. The women i give 10/10 they are very hot. Next i would like to say for people that do not like Lesbian/Bisexual stuff. So far there is several scenes . But there are more straight scenes than Lesbian scenes by far. My problem is it's suppose to be the MC harem but all the women are Bisexual and they let you know it to. To be honest it almost seems they rather have pussy than dick. Once they turn just about every conversation you have with them they talking about sticking their tongue in someones pussy. They seem more into the women than the MC. Which is a big turn off to me. But thats just me. Many of you may not care but to me i feel like i'm being cucked when they talk about having sex with each other without MC. If this had more Romance and had less lebian sex scenes and lesbian talk and the sex scenes where longer and had better angles and had way more dialog to make a story out of this i would give it 5 stars. If he/she would make one of these with alot less of the things i just pointed out and added more Romance it would be great.

Nice characters. Faces are a bit wonky but that's more common than not.
Writing is average, sometimes very boring. My eyes were glazing over, when tried to read this story more thoroughly. Scenario is meh, but still handled kinda well. The story is straightforward as it may be.

rated against 1.05.

It's a good game but I wonder whether having so many characters is actually holding it back.

Ok so it's your standard plot. You're a lad, people want your dick. that should be the end of it. But there's actually a wee hint of plot peeking through. Demons actually exist, you end up becoming on and now you need to take over the world. You'll do this, naturally, by fucking your way through the world.

It's good..... but in the grand scheme of things the plot rarely seems to play a part of the game, except by setting up the reason for why you're not only fucking all these women, but why they're not tripping balls when you do it to everyone. The answer is dick magic.

So the game is instead a clicking simulator. You've got like 20 women. Each have an affection level. If you talk to them it goes up. Once you hit a threshold there'll be an event and then you talk to them till you reach the next level. I may be doing a disservice here as some of the girls are interesting. It seems the Dev has taken the time to give them all a bit of backstory and that really helps the game but I kinda feel the game needs a more tighter reign on the overarching plot. Selecting on girl and clicking on her until she gets to the point where she has sex with you is fine and all, but that's all it is. There's no drama or anything you need to do. You just click.

The game could be better by perhaps having less girls and padding them out more but then I suppose having less girls kinda messes with the whole "I need to turn everyone into demons" thing so I'm torn.

Visuals are good and varied. Animations are a bit... silly. A+ for effort but the tits are a bit too.... wibbly wobbly at times. Despite looking heavy as hell I can only imagine they're filled with helium and angry weasels trying to escape

Version 1.05

I'm really enjoying this game so far. It's a game that ticks all my boxes (enormous tits, breast expansion, monster girls and demons). It's the first game I've found that does slow breast expansion in the way that really gets me going. As you corrupt each girl, she gradually wears less clothing and her tits and ass grow.

I like the sex animations, especially of the women orgasming, and I give the creator props for making kissing an important part of the game - very important for turning me on.

The corruption involved should really be called liberation - to corrupt most girls you discover the trauma in their past at the hands of asshole husbands/family/whoever that caused them to shut down and become repressed. You encourage them to show their sexuality, through magical means and just through being a good guy. It's hot as hell (pun intended) to see a woman who used to be a shy little girl now loving her life as a big-titted slut.

The writing is effective, and I like the sandbox format. It's fun to just go from room to room kissing each member of my harem in turn.

I'm marking it down for size - the amount of content here does not justify 10G, and the game is going to become unmanageable if it grows proportionally as more content is added. There are also some bugs - after one scene plays, accessing the phone crashes the game.
