VN - Ren'Py - Projekt: Passion [v0.13 BUGFIX] [Classy Lemon]

Projekt: Passion is one of my all-time favourite AVNs. I've thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it.

The game has such a high production value. This includes the user interface, the music, the render quality and fully voice-acted cutscenes. The animations are incredible. Creating animations in DAZ is not the most user-friendly process, but ClassyLemon knocks it out of the park and makes it look easy (both in the cutscene animations and the lewd ones). The art style is unique, and I think it really stands out well from other games.

Aside from where this game exceeds technically, the characters and story are a lot of fun. The plot is engaging and never feels like a drag. The characters are funny and enjoyable to be around. SAndrA is my fav, with Ashe as a close second - (Honourable mention to Steve the Electrician ).

Do yourself a favour and give this game a go, you won't regret it!

After the inferno was a good game, it got me into the AVN genre as a steam player cuz it was f2p.

But this production seems as a straight upgrade.

Animation quality is top notch, as non-intercourse animations(cutscenes) are plenty and they are voiced. Soundtrack is cool. Classic sci-fi spaceship harem setting doesn't bore me like other space games for some reason. There are plenty of game over choices which are gory and comical. All girls are kinda different in personality. (also aliens and androids in the ship duh). From what I've seen so far. The production quality is close to AA, the game looks polished in v0.5.

The only downside I'm seeing is: plot changed rather abruptly. MC was a blade for hire, freelancer kinda guy. Then decided to become a hero and involve in a fight against a megacorp to chase after some chick which he knew for a week, who betrayed him for an artifact of unknown value. This is not so offputting as the story flows but I saw it as a logical error in writing and got me thinking "hmm, alright".

Great game, hope it gets better and better.

Everything about this game is amazing. Naughty bits are very well animated and the situations are spicy. Characters are great. But the crown jewel goes to the writing. The story is well above what is average in this site. And it is possibly the only game that made me laugh out loud multiple times, and make me feel legitimate feelings in the next scene. Wishlisted on steam, buying on arrival!

Review for 0.5 (though I started playing from 0.3 and the review applies to both)

One of the most polished vn's I've seen on the site, very good renders and characters, and the environment and lighting is top notch too. Having done some work rendering myself, I am amazed both at the quality, and the quantity of renders. This alone would give the game a 5 stars for me.

Seriously though, top notch animations and voice acting too? The game is a complete product to me, from a production standpoint. Very fast development cycles too, which is just a rarity.

For the story, the game effectively tells you the vibe it is going for very early on, and it stays consistent thoughout. It seems like a basic thing, but it's crucial, and quite difficult. Humor too, is something that can be hard to pull off, and it does well. The game has no real flaws to speak of. It has a clear vision in mind, and accomplishes exactly that, with a level of polish, consistency, and speed that is rare. In my mind that's a recipe for success.

I just need more Ashe. That's all. Please dev.

The game is awesome, honestly there are not that many choices, and the great majority of them lead to hilarious game overs. Still, This game, and "After the inferno" that is the last game released by the author, are really great, awesome animations, gorgeous renders and some good comedy. I would recimend it to play both of them

Damn, I really like the story so far. It has great characters, so I am going to play it till the end. The character designs are appealing to me. I like the scenes so far. It's great that all of the characters have different emotions. Every character has a unique story to tell. Humor is very good in it.

Awesome game! I think itnis better than After Inferno. I'm enjoying this one a lot more! Great job , dev! You're doing an excellent job! Keep going, my friend! Can't wait to see what are your plans for the ending. Thank you!

Well excellent game with cool renders and I'm amazed with animations plus voices in animation story is good and funny too hope you make amazing avns in future with cool animation.(fav girls are ashe,emily and SaNdra)

My only negative about this story is that I got to a point and realized I was going to have to stop. My wife is definitely going to enjoy this one as well. So we'll be reading it together.

It has everything you would want in a story so far. Action, adventure, romance, sex, humor. Its been a real pleasure to read.

Amazing space sci-fi game.

Great combination of story with lots of universe bulding lore and character development with quite a few nicely done comedy relief moments.

The renders and animations are really good. From the ships to the characters and passing through the different alien worlds.

And as a porn game i need to mention that all the above applies to the sex scenes and plus some of them have voice acting (same for some of the non sexual animations).

One of the best games here I played so far. Great renders and animations, a variety of well-developed characters, a fascinating plot, and good humor - I laughed loud several times. Reminds me of the games of Caribdis, which I love also. I wish dev all the best

Written as of v. 0.5

I've never written any review here till now. It means that the game is good enough for me to choose for first review. No need to read further, you can play it.

From all the avns I played so far, it’s the funniest avn in S tier.

It has quite a lot of good quality comedy content. I’ve never laughed so much during avn. Ofc to see all funny content players need to check all choices. Going only with stupid/funny choices and allow seeing game over screens is not all .

Good comedy content is what makes this game different from other S tier avns. However, the game also has what usually S tier have. Be it an interesting story and created world, unique/beautiful characters, good animations, some drama content etc. The amount of drama content is not big, so it's not in the way of enjoyment of comedy content. It can serve as a calming down factor to regain the ability to laugh later.

For these reasons it’s worth playing and the game deserves more attention.

Imo keeping drama content at a low level may be the hardest task for the Dev, if he continues to aim at comedy.

On the other hand, if he switches the path to the common road of S tier, the drama content is too low and too light. Lots of good avns have excellent, interesting, emotional, engaging, heavy drama content, so the competition is very high on that path.

However, whatever path he’ll choose (comedy, comedy drama, something else), I find it quite likely that the game will be at least good.

The game is excellent. The girls are cute, and the development of the characters is great. The pacing is solid, and story engaging. Mixed in with all of it is some entertaining dialogue and funny scenes. I have to say, I didn't know anything about this title but I am very glad I discovered it. It could very well become one of my favorites and I've played well over 100 different VN's. I'd highly recommend it if you want something easy to get into, doesn't take itself too seriously, yet still does a great job of storytelling and bringing you the MC closer to some cute yet different girls.

I don't skip any dialogues... I alway skip the dialogues! That guy is a fucking genius! A lot of hard work went in this project. The story is intriguing and really funny. The renders are good and the animations are epic. Also the cutscenes are with sound. What does anyone want more...

A fairly good game already with some promise.

The setting and story have potential to spawn interesting stories and scenarios, and the writing so far is quite good overall. Leans towards the comedic end of the spectrum but also has a few more serious moments. I think some of the character development is lacking a little, but that depends on what you're interested in. What is there already is pretty good, with differences in style for each character that make them distinctive.

The character models and animations are well done. There are some cutscenes with dialogue which show additional effort, and the animations in those are also very good.

There is background music and some sounds which set it apart from other games.

A quick opinion. I don't particularly like it, but I don't dislike it either. Let's say that the story is normal and well the characters are not the typical characters with general personalities. As for +18 scenes, it has let's say enough for the content it has, but let's say few. The argument... well normal, but in my point of view not entertaining.

If I had to highlight something, it would be the animations and the transitions between scenes and that, the rest seems very normal to me.

For me it is a game to pass the time without much expectation.

o Character Design/Visual: 4/5
o Background music/sound: 5/5 (there are some moans)
o Plot: 2.5/5 (It is my point of view, in particular it seemed normal to me but not good)
o Animation: 4.7/5
o +18 Scenes: 3.5/5
o Gameplay: 3.5/5
o Interface: 5/5

My score: 4.08

So far so good. The game looks amazing, variety of characters and all have an interesting back story. Sex scenes are well animated, although the main concern is the lack of anal. With so many alien species it would be nice to experience the whole spectrum of relationships.

this is the game we all've been waiting for...
a goofy yet cool MC, love interests that are easy to get atached to, stuational comedy that doesn't suck... good animations, impressive sex scenes, stunning visuals and brave choices, a lovely sexdroid and a big boobed pilot.. what can a player wish for that isn't already in ?

Review as of [v0.4.1] for Projekt: Passion by ClassyLemon

SPOILER-FREE REVIEW

My Synopsis:
What is left of humanity has long since left Earth and is now dispersed throughout the galaxy. What transpired on Earth, then? That chapter of history was long since forgotten.

But why does it matter? You need to address your own issues.

You recently escaped an attempted murder at the expense of your residence. It seems to be just another weekday, no? Correct, but this time your partner has also inexplicably disappeared, and it's your responsibility because of an enigmatic relic to determine where she went! A word of caution: the solution could result in... greater adventures than you anticipated.

Together with his childhood friend Kaylee, the MC sets out on a quest to find his ex-partner and retrieve the enigmatic relic.

Renders – Character models are really well done; they don't resemble one another in a way that they frequently do in other VNs. For various characters, different models are used and is implemented well. That is a positive!

In addition, unlike the more normal very hefty appearance, our MC has a good flair for appearance and is really distinctive looking.

The environments and ambience almost always use vibrant colors, a lot of gradients, and always suit the futuristic concept, even in locations where it might appear challenging to do so. Well done, developer.

Story – It is one of those AVNs that focuses a lot on the narrative. It currently concentrates on character development and world building.

I’d say that I enjoyed the direction the plot was taking, with the mystery and intrigue, as well as where it may go, potential future conflicts, and perhaps some additional set-action sequences.

Everyone has a unique personality, making it possible to tell them apart from one another beyond just how they seem. Not all developers are able to do this.

The comedic timing is *chef’s kiss*. With the trailers and other promotional materials, I honestly didn't anticipate this degree of humor, and I'm glad this game has it.

Writing is flawless. The author/developer knows when to hit you with the lowest of lows and when to hit you with highest of highs. The tempo is excellent and not erratic like in other media.

Animations – The transitions were seamless. It showed off the developer's creativity in juggling scenarios, whether with a lighthearted joke, a tearjerker, or a fantastic cutscene.

Speaking of cutscenes, this is undoubtedly the pinnacle of the game's animations.

I have no idea how to adequately express how fantastic the cutscenes are, so I can't say much more about it. It's incredibly well-made, and you can tell that the developer put a lot of time into producing them.

Sounds – Not a much to say. Absolutely flawless, a perfect 10 in every way.

I catch myself occasionally bobbing my head to the beat of the background music and find myself enjoying the tunes that are playing.

I would include VA here as we are currently in the sounds category. The voice acting in this game may be the finest ever. The voice acting is of a very high caliber, thus I suppose the Dev employed professional and experienced Voice Actors/Actresses. Due to its excellent craftsmanship, this makes you want to hear and listen to it. I recently watched my friend stream another AVN with voice acting, and I have to say that it was agonizing to sit through it with the voice acting.

For people who plays AVNs with sounds off, I’d really recommend you playing this one with sounds on and don’t mute. Because the sounds is one of the game’s personality.

UI – It excelled. For those who are interested in learning more about the universe of Projekt: Passion, there is a CODEX or BIOs that you can find under the settings.

The user interface is not ordinary. The creator really worked hard to make it stand out and speak to the game.

Grammar – It's quite good. I just saw one or two errors. I could say that the developer took time to proofread.

Dev - The developer has been open to suggestions, and as a result, changes are routinely made.

The game's creator is a cool, nice guy who always interacts with his fans and speaks out frequently about how the game is doing and developing.

Conclusion:
I give it 5 stars and can't wait to see how the developer expands on the strong framework they have established for the plot as it goes forward.

An enjoyable experience with humour, cute girls and an intriguing story. I also like the the look of the MC and his character.
The game also has game over choices that are funny and don't feel out of place, and maybe it's just me but im a sucker for space/sc-fi settings and here it's done well enough.
It also helps the game that the Dev is very active and communicates with the fans.Great game, looking forward to more updates.
