VN - Ren'Py - Profiler [v0.2] [DiveBar]

Review 0.2
I don't know what to start so
Positive:
Know how to make the effect on the choice.
Nice Lis (Well only the Abyss girl, needs to improve every Li)
The story talks about Sherlock Homes but hope can work well with it
Cons:
- The developer seems unsure about the direction of the story.
- There's too much dialogue that players won't care about and will likely forget in the next version.
- Lots of cliché dialogue that seems meaningless.
- Sound effects are used, but they are misplaced (I saw the code, so please don't act like you know what's going on, like the previous reviewer. The sound effects are in the wrong place. I wanted to give this 2 stars, but the previous reviewer makes me want to give it 1).
Abuse SO MUCH DOF. FK THAT SH*T
At version 0.1, the developer needs to work on many aspects, including characters, Render, sound effects, UI, and story. I won't critique the render because I know the developer didn't spend much time working with this engine.
I will revisit this game later to see if the developer addresses these issues.
It's a good game overall, but it requires a lot of effort.

Review as a of 0.1


Pretty good start. Good enough that it compelled me to write a review for the first time, so that should tell you something. No sexual content as of right now, but clearly the developer is choosing story over quick fap, so I have no complaints.

Renders are above average, some of them have custom animations. The models are in fact very good. I'm more of a face guy than an ass/boob one so I can appreciate a dev that takes the time to make the girls pretty.

The story and characters are all pretty decent so far. We haven't seen enough for me to fully judge yet, but what little we have shows that the dev has thought things out. A darker tone that the one we're used to here, with some good memes sprinkled to light things up a bit.

Music is on point.

If I had to say something negative:
- Its a bit too short. (Around 15 mins of read time as of this review).
- UI is a bit clunky. Pretty, but renpy is optimized as shit, so having this many text effects makes the experience a bit awkward for people who read ahead of the text, as there is always that one 0.1s delay between lines, making things uncomfortable. Oh and before you say anything I have a 4090 and a 7950x, so it's not me. Not the dev's fault, its just Renpy being a bitch, but annoyed me enough to mention it.


Pretty solid overall anyhow, hopeful to see where it goes.
