Ren'Py - Completed - One Pump Chump [v1.0.0] [TwistedScarlett]

A parody game that shows promise in a lot of ways:
+ The story is faithful to the source material, while still being a very servicable plot as a standalone story.
+ The overall pace of the game is quite fast for a corruption game, which is refreshing compared to many games that move at a glacially slow pace.
+ Gameplay systems aren't grindy; main story progression is tied to in-game days and combat isn't required for progression. Furthermore, the primary method of gaining "EXP" to improve your character is simply by passing days. Given events aren't repeatable, you could argue there is ZERO necessary grind currently in the game.

I could see people taking issue with the lack of animations, but I personally think the other aspects of the scenes (art quality, SFX, and good narration) more than make up for this.

Since this is only the first release I'm hesitant to give it a full five stars, but given the dev has made a quality game before I think it's a safe bet that this game will continue to deliver high-quality content.

game had alot more content then i expected for the file size considered.

art was really nice and how you did tatsumaki's and fubuki's charachters were really nice never close to how they would act in the show I'm very excitied for what there is to come and hope new charachters can be introduced and better combat

One of the best actual parody of shows/games etc, the quality is amazing, the dialogues could use some work because, for me at least, they sometimes sounded unnatural, they weren't bad but just a light touch would do the trick in fixing, CGs are amazing, I can't say anything bad about them, maybe that one of CGs just looked out of place (the penetration one), it didn't really
resemble what other did, and whole Tatsumaki's character changed there, maybe it was made on purpose but still, moans are nice, I myself much prefer little noises to whole voiceacting. I will have the game on watch and I much
recommend playing it by anyone yourself. Waiting for next versions! Keep up the fabulous work!

I played all the games of the author, his drawing is probably one of the best, i like the idea of the game, i did not encounter any bugs, everything is great as always.
I really look forward to the next updates, i think this may become my favorite of his games and, yes, i am a big fan of Tatsumaki.

I loved the scenes and the parody. The script is good and the characters fit well into the story. The sex scenes are great. I have nothing to criticize, the game is good. I'll be looking forward to more content in the future!

The developer has a following, and the game is based on a well known anime, that's about it. The game is way overrated. No animations, hardly any game play. If this was produced by an unknown developer it would not receive a 4,5 star.

As usual nothing to say, a few bugs here and there but nothing much, blowjob layering issue has already been reported iirc, I've had the first esper upgrade buy itself without being able to do anything and giving me 2 MP instead of 2 WIS

Pretty great foundation, only complaint I have is thst the dialogue could use a bit of work. It's a bit too romantic and tatsumaki seems to be not nearly bratty/funny enough so she seems a little flatter than her character should be.

Amazing as always, great artwork, combat seems good enough, UI's kinda messy on mobile if the button has too much text but for the most part it looks clean and most important of all interesting story, I'm intrigued what the story will become at the certain events of opm

Review as of Act 1 v.0.1.0

This might be the most impressive 0.1 release I've personally played. There was a surprising amount of content for a first release and the foundations for an excellent game are already present.

I like the game system that's currently in place. The patrols and skill tree aren't too fleshed out or demanding as of now but it adds a bit of depth and choice that I can appreciate.

But at the end of the day the most important thing is the lewd stuff. The game focuses heavily on Tatsumaki and it seems that she'll be the primary focus. I think this is a good call. The main girl gets a lot more screen time and characterization. I'm much more interested in seeing a wide variety of interesting content for one character than getting less variety or uninspired content for a bunch of characters. It seems like the game does hint at side content for some other characters, which would be great so long as it doesn't come at the expense of the main girl.

This is a really solid first release that inspires a lot of confidence moving forward. It seems like the dev has a clear idea of what they want the game to be and I will be eagerly waiting for the next update.

Edit: I didn't even realize this was made by the creator (creators?) of Friendship with Benefits. I think that's even more reason to be excited about this game's future.

Edit 2: As of 0.4.0a, this game is still incredible and I stand by every compliment I gave.

Shockingly good. Gameplay is just alright(but not at all grindy) but the writing and images are both great. A surprising amount of content for a 0.1 release, too.

We just need to see if it manages to break the curse of parody games with a promising start that makes them never update again.

Promising demo. I liked the focus on one character and romance. Art and character designs are good. Planned content and fetishes looks promising. Interested to see how the patrol and upgrade system works out. Exited to see how the game develops.

Alright, I played through the first update and was honestly surprised by how much content there is so far. Let’s break down the key points:


1 - Art:
Well, this is a matter of personal taste, but I really dislike that damn rubbery-looking AI skin, it’s just a personal thing, okay? I know in this case it was probably the opposite, the AIs were likely trained on the original artist’s style... but putting that aside, I personally prefer visuals with color tones that don’t give off that artificial AI vibe.


The character proportions also didn’t quite catch my attention, again, just personal preference. Tatsumaki is the one who keeps the most realistic body proportions, even if not perfect, which is fine. But Fubuki, along with others, falls into that usual trope of tripling breast size, which for me makes the character less attractive. That said, I do have to admit the overall art is very well-structured. The facial expressions are convincing and all; I can see the quality even if it’s not really my thing.


2 - Gameplay:
I really liked the skill system during combat, the use of the original series’ music, the sound effects, and the way affection points work with character interactions. The patrol mechanic is also a cool addition, and I can totally see this evolving well if it's carefully thought out, whether in forming some sort of harem with the characters or facing off against enemies like Garou, among many others.


3 - Personalities:
I think they’re fairly well done, faithful to the originals. I really liked this aspect and don’t have much to critique here.


4 - The downsides?
Well, aside from my earlier comment about the art, I felt the dynamic with Tatsumaki progressed a bit too quickly to really build a sense of real desire from the player. I know the dev tried to set up a gradual build-up with small interactions leading to the sex scene and all, but it all happens every two in-game days, so on one hand, yes, there’s a lot of content, which is great, but on the other, it kind of feels like the player already hit “level 100,” metaphorically speaking, and now it’s just about farming to optimize. That kind of kills the excitement for the character, and even the motivation to grow stronger through daily expeditions. Both things should be intertwined, with a balanced level of challenge to keep players invested.


It’s funny, because there are games that, even after tons of updates, only tease the characters while developing them, maybe just a peek here and there, and that builds huge desire in the audience without even showing much. Anyway, I went on a bit here, but I think the overall point stands.

So that’s it, I think a fair score would be a 4. I was honestly torn about giving it a 5, but I can’t deny how I truly feel when making my final decision.

- LI is very cute. I hope other characters will be available in the future.
- The gameplay is actually quite fun and it's decently paced.
- Lewd scenes are ok, I expect a lot more.

A very promising start. Looking forward to it!

I actually cared more for this than just the porn. A plot with a body! That is to mean that, in order to reach the 200 letter requirement, I'm happy to see some serious development to romance and turning the corruption into it being an experience that breaking out of is a WANT.

Only fear now is turning this into a harem and cheapening the romance. If that happens... I only beg you make it believable.

Nice.
Writing is pretty good, characters feel in-character.
Even as early as version 0.1 goes the content is fairly good, albeit lacking some RPG depth that will hopefully follow in future updates upon current system.
And CGs are very good.

Already the solid foundations for a very good game are laid down. The renders are of excellent quality. The combat system is interesting while cheats allow those just looking for the more fun parts to skip past.

Reviewing [Act 1 v0.1.0]
This is probably the first release game with the most story, sex and gameplay content I've ever seen on this site. At multiple points I was expecting the demo to end and it just kept going and going, pretty good stuff.

I appreciate the fact that so far most of the focus has been on Tatsumaki as the main girl, while still providing little samples of more content with future girls to come.

I personally really liked that there was much more buildup for a romantic and sexual relationship between the characters than in the dev's previous games I've played, while also making use of a sensible plot device as an excuse to accelerate the need for them to start being intimate in what could be covered with 30K words worth of story.

The dev's art is in my opinion at its best in this game, Tatsumaki in particular looks pretty similar to how she does in canon while still getting her features nicely pornified to reasonable extents. The only possible criticism I could have with her design in this game is maybe a bit of same-face syndrome when comparing her to the other female characters.

The gameplay elements are nothing too crazy but at least to me they felt intuitive to use and weren't grindy. One thing that I did not like, and I'm not sure if this is intentional, when selecting choices that may or may not increase Tatsumaki's affection, her stats menu bar disappears, which doesn't let you see which choices increase the most points until after you select them and compare the current score with the previous, but that only happens when the entire scenes of interacting with Tatsumaki end.

I noticed that the choices that give points make a little heart beat sound effect, and I think the choices that give more points than others play a stronger heart beat sound. If this is the dev's intention then I'd recommend making the distinction between the sounds much more clear.

I'm looking forward to future updates, I don't know how the development of this game will turn out, but the content that is already present would be enough to warrant it 3 stars at least, so I'm giving this 4 stars for now since I'm expecting the usual level of quality that has become the norm for this dev. Whether the game turns out to be worthy of 5 stars is yet to be determined.

Fantastic game 9.5/10
The writing is gold. The sex scenes look mesmerizing. I dont have anything to criticize the game is good. It is a demo so it will be short but there is so many more contents in the future.
Edit: hope we have animation and better voice. I dont want to put pressure on dev but ur Fubuki art is to good to not used.

loved the game, hope you can finish it, no rush on my end, take your time so the game is finished and well made, other than that hope you always have a great day. i may not know when the game will arrive but be confident once you can say an aprox of when the full game releases.
