Ren'Py - Punk 2079 [v0.2.5.5] [MrX]

Pretty decent start. The characters are of great quality and so far I respect that the Dev is even attempting to go the Cyberpunk route. Very early in the story, but it's definitely not bad. The renders fit the bill as terms of the theme. The choices so far are well laid out, so nothing to gripe about there. The dialogue is acceptable also. This wasn't a bad start, not perfect, but still something to work on.

Yet another bumbling Main Character getting nagged at by girl bosses.

Now another game is adding a sandbox element. I don't have time to learn yet another sandbox. I play AVN's so that I can read and click through them at my leisure, often while I'm working. I don't have time to learn yet another buggy, boring sandbox system that drags down the pace of the AVN.

Not really interested in an MC who visits prostitutes either. Give me choice and player agency. I have zero interest in "virtual" sex as well. I like to play characters that stay plugged in to reality.

Sex scenes made me a little seasick, with all the "rocking the camera" action that seems to be getting more and more popular. Listen, I loved it when the shaky cam craze died out years ago, I don't want to go back to something like that.

This game also just rips off the creativity of another game. I don't have much use for "parody's". I admire writers who strike out on their own and try to create their own thing instead of blatantly ripping something else off and milking off another products' popularity.

This story also tries to build off of the main character from Cyberpunk while ignoring all the endings for that character for Cyberpunk. Just takes me out of the story.

I was eh on the AVN before the sandbox without a sandbox tag was added in, immediate nope/hard out for me since there wasn't enough for me to be very interested to begin with.

AVN is a cheap parody that I rather just play the original at that point In my honest opinion.

Might be for you but isn't for me

Quick one

PROS

1. Models look pretty good
2. Animations are nice
3. Renders all round are nice and detailed.
4. Writing is not bad

CONS:

1. MCs junk looks like its taken from a real life pic and strapped to a NPC in the game, while I get a dudes junk can be darker than rest of the skin, this is a bit too obvious and clearly does not look natural.
2. While I appreciate using Cyberpunk as a baseline for this game, I would try to steer a bit more away from using so many actual in game characters in a VN, best to use the world but have your own characters IMO.
3. Some work is needed on dialogue box, the dialogue is too plain, doesn't fit game theme
4. Bug: Using H to hide dialogue hides the entire scene, at least in Clouds scene.

Review for Punk 2079 [v0.1]

I have never played Cyberpunk but I love the story concept here. There is not much in the game so far. The scenes and graphics are good. The only sex scene in the game so far is good. I expect to see much more in future updates. I wish the developer the very best.

Have a weakness for 2077 so I had to check it out and it's interesting. Decent beginning renders, sounds, animations, script and dialogue has short and sweet banter along the way, and since its fresh I'm looking forward to seeing how it develops. A decent start and effort for the genre theme it's based on. Just don't abandon it like so many others have with similar parodies.
