VN - Ren'Py - My Summer [v0.18] [InsanErotica]

I liked this. The writing is a bit clunky, but honestly the set up is pretty good and the plot moves at a fairly realistic pace. My biggest complaint is it feels like a fair amount of bloat - the Anyway, I think that a lot of the negative reviews probably stem from the development time, where if you've been following from day one the pace must have seem glacial. But it's nice to see a NTR game that builds.

Graphics are serviceable.
Story is good.
Choices seem to matter.
Build up is believable.
More bloat than I like.

All in all: 7.5/10

I expected terrible following the other reviews I had read, and the game delivered on that. The writing is atrocious, just as is the story, with no appeal or development that makes it any more interesting. Characters are boring, two dimensional and lacking real personalities or interest. Choices set you on a path but most of them either don't matter or apparently just allow you to skip some content.

Render quality is middling, at least the characters are decent but nothing incredible either. Poses and photography are poor though, and animations are really basic and belong in very poor sex scenes. And there is no sound at all, at least there are no bugs which is a plus.

So, all in all, not even worth it for a quick fap to be honest.

The dev's name is apt, the writing is a bit deranged.
She's naked!!
And you're so horny!!
And you have to jerk off!!
On and on with very simple statements that get either one or, rather often, two exclamations. It's the markings of a very inexperienced writer. A lot of the text is adding very little to the scene, hardly even characterizing beyond giving some vague sense of neuroticism.
Character personalities are not very well-conveyed, and none of them are particularly charming. The NTR all falls flat to me.
Animations are stiff. Lighting is fine. Posing is mediocre. Model and mesh? Well, look at the previews and you'll probably be fine with that part.

Best quote from it: "express your breastmilk"

OMG You have to go far to the north to find a place witch is as cold an anonymous as the athmosphere in this game. All characters look like dead dolls and the writin onlyg supports this. The plot, if we call it plot for a moment, seems to be the product of a 14 years old boys brain. I´m absolutely sure that the "author" never read any books that could have helped him building up some writing skills.
I really like most of the cuck/ntr themed games especially when creators are able to build up this special tension between the acting characters - nothing of that is to be found here.
Save your time and download capacity, this game ist absolutely worthless. Sorry

This game is a solid 3/5 stars. Its 99% voyeurism and delusions, an only in the latest scenes is it fully cucking but it felt rushed and stupid. Like, the redhead gf just starting fucking the black guy in a way that didn't match the buildup. Rather than build a ton of shallow routes, the game would be better with the developer sticking to a single vision.

I do not think the game deserves a 2/5 stars because it does have merit, just not enough to go above 3 stars.

Horrible Characters and models, horrible writing to bring them together, despite being a cliched plot with a lot of sources to learn from.

Sex is just available on a platter everywhere because the women are unrealistic

Games of the usual Punta scopa, classic college boys who only know how to fuck, scenes also seen in many films about American college boys, no respect, no feelings, even an MC who isn't interested in the slutty girl, an MC who is more interested in the professor and to the virtual woman, a BBC fake friend of MC as best tradition, who in the end fucks his girlfriend, but an MC who finds the girl more of a nuisance than a feeling, nothing that hasn't been done before

The Rating of this Game are as follows:

The Positive:
+ The Characters are Nice & Clean.
+ The Scenes are Hot when they come.
+ Animation are Nice.
+ The Story is O.K.
+ Pretty Regular Monthly Updates.

The Negatives:
- Scenes Repeat very Often.
- Updates are Short
- Too Many Paths

All in all this Game is worth the Download.

Summer Class [Ep.01 v0.4]

The Visuals are flat and look aged, just like the Devs other game.
Animations look stiff and repetitive.
The Story is dull and uninteresting.
Characters lack personality and are uninteresting.
Choices are basically if you want to see the content or not.
The game is very short, and the scenes are too repetitive.

I understand that this is supposed to be an intro, but I can only rate what I see, and that is a lifeless and uninspired game.

As of Ep. 01 v0.3, I'm not impressed. Other NTR VNs have set my bar very low, but with every update, my hope for this game falls lower and lower.

I don't mind the re-used visuals because I know the dev only uses purchased rather than pirated assets, and I respect that its put constraints on how many assets he can use without spending thousands of dollars.

That said, what assets he does use, he uses poorly. He insists on continuing to pose characters like robots rather than adjusting them to show their personality and realism: leaning in makes characters look interested, hands up like they're defensive, staring shyly at the floor, etc. can tell us so much about who they are.

Story-wise, I was hopeful during the demo because it seemed slow-burn, which to me lends to the authenticity that is so lacking in NTR games. But that flew out the window with the last couple updates, where the MC is now obsessed with his friend's 'BBC', and we know all the female characters are just going to instantly fall to their knees and worship it, yada, yada. And that's about as far as the plot goes - us, the player, just waiting for MC's best friend to hurry up and bone his girlfriend.

A solid 3 out of 5. The only reason it's not lower is because, somehow, most other NTR games are even worse (and I say this as a fan of the genre).

Some characters looked very promising over others, but sadly the story is very short and feels like a demo at best, where most of the scenes are imagination than actual story telling and plot development.
The story is also a bit predictive and not unique, as it is very tame and simple to guess what will happen next.
Really liked that there is multiple routes, but current execution seems a bit sloppy as if you are going for one or the other path the dialog does not change in anyway to represent character development.

Well it is demo (like realy demo) so there is not much to say/play.

Characters from first release looks generic but this can be better when we will find their personalities atc.

story will looks like typical school boy who will catch girls or not cause dev told (and his previouse game was same) that there will be 4 routes.

art is realy poor there is nothing more to add.

Summary:

1/5 characters
3/5 typical school story nothing what we did not saw (so not bad or awesome)
2/5 art (can look at that but no mirracle)

Result:
2,5

Little tip: there will be 4 routes so there will be probably needed more updates to see quality of game and that content.

Lifeless characters, generic pre-made posses, dialogue is remedial, animations are stiff/repetitive, and aLOT of shot repetition for the background. Here is an example of decision making in the game: "do you want to watch this sex scene?" Yes or No if no then you just don't watch it and move on.

Cons:
-The story is short, with few details and uninteresting.
-Lifeless characters with no personality development and no emotions.
-The dialogues are very short, blunt and flat. The characters look like robots talking.

Pros:
-Hot, but emotionless chicks.

I think this is a good start. Rendering is great and the animation is good. I'm looking forward to what story will continue in future updates. Though it will be great if dev pay more attention to the storyline.

Visuals: Pretty low quality. Dev hasn't progressed at all since their last game so if you played that and like it then ignore this section but the models are not good looking and the facial features suck. Like the characters will say they are feeling one thing but they look like they have a completely flat affect.

Characters: Completely uninspired cookie cutters from his previous game. The dev is trying so hard to make them all live up to their stereotypes there is just zero depth or originality behind any of them. He does a good job however of making the MC particularly unlikeable. I wouldn't recommend naming this MC after yourself just name him a random douche and enjoy seeing him get cucked.

Story: Eh its a college story. Sometimes the classics are a classic for a reason but as an intro it's hard to say if it'll ever be anything interesting. The dialogue though is pretty stilted at times and the amount of jump cuts from one area to the next is both unnecessary and annoying. We don't need to see the MC go to sleep every night! Either make it more interesting to the story, add more transitions, or remove those parts IMO
