Ren'Py - Abandoned - My Sincere Desire [Ep. 1 v0.3] [Juice_A]

The game's a little bit of a mess at this moment but it's still very early in development. Open world is mostly empty and not a whole lot of content as of yet. Story is still bare bones. Only reason for this rating is that the mom is top-tier.

disgusting shit! Already how many updates there have been no normal content. The same looped events. Quests activated via phone (WHAT ???) One and the same person in two rooms at the same time. With this download size, other games manage to tell a whole story with sex scenes.

Eyebrows of Judgement

#1 BTW Mia Khalifa is a 100% product of plastic surgery. Fake ass, tits and face. Search for her photo before the surgeries. Too my amazement you made her look even worse. Lady looks like a dude.
#2 Quest. She gives me money. Tells to buy myself something nice. According to previous scene the MC wants to start this jogging thing. So i figure out i have to go to my laptop and buy some clothes for him...WORK IN PROGRESS. Instead i can only buy female clothes. Makes prefect sense. (There was no indication that the readhead wanted this).
#3 If it's work in progress then why is it in the game?
#4 Bro don't make us to look for atomic dots on the screen for some useless gallery.
#5 Why does every action take two hours?! I peeked inside a room and quickly left. That doesn't last two hours...BRO
#6 The girls evaporate from the house on weekends...not that it matters since there is no content.
#7 Yeah that's it...or more like it isn't. Literally nothings in the "game". You do yoga with mom and that's it. No interaction with any other character. ZERO

The only thing the dev has going for him are the models (except Mia Khalifa lookalike), and the background song.

People need to stop giving out handout in the form of 4 and 5 star reviews. There's a freaking rape scene that welcomes us...this is version 0.1 people.

Version: Episode 1 0.2

Not sure what game those 5 star reviewers played but it's not this game. On trying to find something to do/ a substantial scene... after day 3 in the game I just gave up.
Tl dr for main issues:
everything is a WIP; too many bugs; and stuff just happen with no prior context, there's nothing to do and no progression.

I'll go in order of what this game needs to focus on since it's such a WIP:

Incredibly buggy

• In Settings, Sound bar controls the music - music bar should control the music
• Prologue scene; More button does nothing
• Interacting with Anna in Living room; says she is going to work but reappears where she was upon refreshing map
• Choices don't matter. First "Quest" with Anna; if you choose Lock screen, she still views the porn at the end
• Starting Quest 2 for Anna sends you in a loop with her leaving for work.
• Trying to Talk to Cara in her room on the laptop results in nothing
• Same dinner dialogue reused on second day

Story/ characters
There seems like a story should be here but there is none right now. Not having a story is okay but the game also barely has any context on what or why things are the way they are. The way the game is set up right now is just a shell for sexual content tropes encountered while living with hot women with little connection as to why any of it occurs. All in all it feels shallow and empty.

As there is no substantial dialogue, the text that does exist is just fodder but really bad translations. The game needs an English proofread revamp.

And what sort of family is this if everyone looks completely different from each other? Idk because the game doesn't tell me. Makes you think the dev just wanted to use celeb-lookalike models because he likes them regardless if it made narrative sense

Content and features
Quick and cheap lewd scenes - not much of it though (to distract you from the lack of plot). It's as effective as your weakness for such scenes (like sleeping bj, girls stumbling on naked MC, MC ogling/spying). But in general it feels rushed with no contextual plot for it to to feel natural.
The Quest feature that is accessed in the phone is absolutely just a name for "Activate random event" because there is no quest involved in this.

It's difficult to even talk about progression because there's nothing going on. The little scenes there are, are with Anna but just are so disconnected they don't feel like anything.

Some other features worth criticizing:
There's an x-ray feature that appeared like twice but it just comes of like "what's the point of this?" Part of erotica is not giving the reader what they want too quickly.

The mini map allows for easy navigation to an extent - you need to remember which room leads to the stairs. I don't see why put the city map button inside the phone though, just have it as an external button in the HUD.

The double vertical panning is unnecessary when showing off the body of a girl, one is fine.

Graphics
The only pillar, a shaky one, that keeps your interest in this game. The models look hot - 3 different body sizes. Mostly just Anna, the milf, looks good (but that could just be me) who seems the most attention is put into right now - content-wise. However:

• her eyes look too small as if she's perpetually stoned
• her ponytail sticks out like a stiff broom
• when in the kitchen, her pants texture is so shiny that it reflects every source of light in the room

Cara ( Delevingne) model is okay, not much to say there but the Mia (Khalifa) model is ugly; her ponytail lacks any volume and her clothes make her look like a dude.

Judging from the walking animation in the settings, the dev definitely can make really good animations however, there is no animation like that in the game itself, in fact there is just no animations. There is only a pseudo one, when two slides quickly alternate, at the very beginning of the game


In conclusion; the good: nice models (even MC for having a normal size/looking dick) with a bit more work in their assets required - specifically hair. And; perverted fetishes we know and love (sleep play, ogling etc) but sparse and lacks context and/or smooth plot transitioning. But the bad is really bad - mainly buggy ones. Definitely a work-in-progress game and a possible revamp would do this game a huge favour.

this game definitely have potential, the mom model its absolutely amazing, random situations are good.

we need a walkthrough patch or a little help with the phone because its frustrating not know whats the next step. there are some bugs but that can be fixe. Congratulations and good luck

There's really no content and lots of bugs at this point / nothing to do. Tons of errors thrown at various points. Skip for... a few versions at least.

A little more - there's sandbox with lots of renders from other games, but nothing to do in any of the locations. Many of the UI elements are inoperable (e.g., click on people, nothing happens. The hint system doesn't work. There's one "quest" and that's it).

Did not play very far.

The writing is unfortunately not good, the story mixture of boring and confusing ("The world has changed completely, but let's just get you a taxi, come back in a week" Hu?) Not even a fleeting reflection of how/why it is OK to fellate an unconscious guy (F to M rape is always cool, I get it). The girl who reads books on feminism obviously has to be a bitch.

Graphics is fine (Ana's face is gorgeous, but her figure is the usual worrying MILF VN monstrosity).

Sandbox navigation is annoying.

Not very much care seem to have been put into it (e.g. at breakfast: why is the table set for a multiple course dinner for 6 persons, but devoid of any food?)

Awesome renders and fetishes, especilay between m/s in the kitchen when she wears leggings... Can't wait for other stuff like this Creator is a true artist. Please do not waste time in sandbox gaming, please focus on what you actually awesome at: graphism <3

By the time I am typing this it is currently Episode 1. I do not think that my opinion will change as the game progresses but the future is uncertain. Go down to my conclusion for a short summary.

Gameplay: A typical Ren'Py Visual novel with a sandbox navigation brings more flavour to a bland tasting design however like all 10 million taste buds the way it shall be made and presented shall determine the final product and thus it currently taste pretty good. The navigation can be slightly confusing at first but after a couple minutes of messing around it is simplistic and not overly complicated. The pacing is what predict smooth and rich from what is presented, from the mini dialogue option which is currently very limited to specific scenario and character, Is easily identified and the scripture is surprisingly good thus why I describe it to be smooth and rich. Besides that everything is peachy excluding the brain freeze of the navigation. (4/5)

Story: From what is presented it is small yet is easily versatile like a multi choice option of ice cream. The story so far is vanilla and a bit cliché considering people before has attempted to do this type of narrative however like many others to compare, this game has successfully made it not boring by adding a bit of a surprise like chocolate inside the cone or being coating in multiple flavours. So far there is left to be desired but I shall recommend staying due to the progression being interesting. (4/5)

Scenes: Best to last scenes. Yea there isn't much but like the cherry on top it is sweet and savoury due to not only being animated but looks good as well as scene on the first smut scenario. Can't say much since there really isn't that much to go on. Sorry. (4/5)

Conclusion: Read this for a short summary, Story and gameplay is good and smooth but there isn't much scenes. Highly recommend staying tune for the future. (4/5)

P.S I wish the best for the players and the game developer and my apologies because I think my crave for ice cream has gotten me. I like pistachios-Justapervert
