excellent !
Can't wait for next chapters.
First story that I know with triplets.
well written, no bug, and simple but nice way to play !
The tags like Kising, romance, incest & Pregnancy ! No way I will not follow it.
please, share the next versions asap

Just finished 1.2 and I"m thoroughly enjoying the story and can't wait to see where it goes from here. I was genuinely sad at some points and I feel for the girls.

Renders are top notch, I just wish there weren't any single choice "choices", but whatever, just my own personal opinion.

Great job devs, please keep the updates coming! Headed over to the Patreon page now to throw in my support.

Amazing start to a game, great renders(some of the best ever), good writing, good plot and very well made(simple instructions and no errors)

The only problem i have with the game so far is i wouldn't let three people into my home based on nothing but their similarity to a woman i dreamt of and i find it hard to believe MC would either given his fame, especially as they are poor model aged girls and you are a rich model agent, for me that screams scam.

Other than that the game is damn near perfect(wish i could give 4.5/5), cant wait for more.

The good

• Decent renders & animations
• Attractive girls
• Nice music
• Proper English

The so-so

• Redundant "narrator"

The improvable

• Facial expressions sometimes look weird.
• Some strange body proportions (wasp waists) and hairdos
• Implausible & one-dimensional characters
• Unlikeable and inconsistent MC (at times polite, then again aggressive, cocky and pushy)
• MC still looks like 20, although - according to the story - he should be almost 40.
• Blue-eyed blonde, brown-eyed brunette & green-eyed redhead triplets? My ass.
• Cheesy, far-fetched and shallow story. Yikes, the story is really weak - second-hand embarrassment free of charge.
• Trivial dialogue (which - again - made me cringe a lot).
• "Daddy", "sweetie" - you guys just met for the first time, so could you please cut the crap?
• Annoying "humour"
• Being able to read other people's thoughts.
• Single "choices"
• Heart gesture. Just no.

My first thought when I saw the banner of Radiant:
Oh, someone is trying really hard to appeal to the masses and get into their pockets.
The visuals are nice (aside from the incest tag probably the main reason why Radiant is so popular) - other than that it has been just a mediocre experience.
I've seen my fair share of poorly written adult VNs - and Radiant is a prime example.
I don't know how many times I moaned out aloud while reading - and no, those weren't moans of pleasure.

Only on other game has impressed me so much I had to write a review, that being Kindread: The Redburns, and if this game continues at this rate, it is easily going to be top 3 on this site.

Normally when I see a game that catches my eye these past few months I just add it to my list of games to eventually play on this website, but something about this game intrigued me, so I just up and downloaded it right then to play. And holy shit, am I glad I decided to do that. This game is absolutely stellar in just what it has so far.

First off, what probably caught my eye is the attractive girls and story heading (which doesn't actually spoil the plot of the beginning btw), so I went into the game expecting those 3 girls. But I quickly forgot about my interest in them once I met Gracie, every moment with her felt so immersive and I was completely hooked on the interactions with her. It lead to one of the best done sex scenes of any game so far, winding up the plot into a very interesting way... all in just the prologue.

Brooke is gorgeous. She and Gracie could honestly be the main girls of their own games, but the fact that Brooke is in this game too as another girl you can pursue just adds to the game's appeal. Gracie has almost no match of all the games I've played in how much I like her just because of the story, which makes me especially invested in Olivia. You get so invested in her that you can honestly be brought to tears in the story that has been shown so far, which I indeed was (and once again, all that is just the prologue).

When the 3 girls finally show up, I was gobsmacked as much as the mc was, seeing Olivia. The models make the story believable and they're truly beautiful. But not just that, so are their characterization and personalities. The fleshing out they've received so far makes them very intriguing and I'm greatly looking forward to see how the mc's relationship with them pans out. Olivia esp, because she looks so much like her mother.

The models have been uniquely made with regards to their skin and complexion and general look. That and their personality is why they really feel like real characters rather than generic sex interests like other games. The game has a unique relationship and character progression that impacts both your personality and your interactions with the characters, you can be dark if you want, lustful or wholesome. I'm not even going to have a look at dark, I don't want to see the girls treated poorly since it seems to be more than just domination from comments, but the happy/lust stats are more than enough for me.

This game is a masterpiece so far just from what I've seen, the story from the very beginning isn't what you expect due to the fact that enough info is given in the website synopsis to hook you but not enough to spoil the game. Even the main menu gives me this strange mixture of wistfulness, sadness, happiness and beauty. This could be the makings of greatness.

All in all, this is the first game I can say legitimately made me cry, Gracie is one of the best girls ever created for one of these games and this game is so well done so far in terms of it's characters' models, interactions, sex scenes that if it continues at this rate it'll easily be top 3 on this site. I absolutely can't wait to see more of this game. 10/10.

I would love to give this an in depth review, because it seems like a good game. I can't because it is hard to see it clearly, someone seems to be cutting some onions.

It is a really good game with a lot of though put into it. While a coma and memory loss can be a crutch, the devs make it different. The first sex scene is done really well and in a believable way,

This is not the game for you if you don't like fapping with a tear in your eye. It is just well written.

So this game got my curiosity stirring because it seemed to just come out of no where on the trending page. Already accumulating over 100 votes I had to see what the hype was about.

First off I want to start off by saying that I really hope this gets completed all the way through because the story is intriguing. I'll admit that there were points where I shed a tear or two because of what is going on. This story can go in soooo many directions.

The girls are beautiful. Loving the different personalities. The sex scene was also put together nicely. If all the sex scenes will be presented like this then I can onliy wait in anticipation.

I have yet to see how the choices play into the MC story.

So yeah to the Dev....job well done.

After looking through several of the other reviews, I feel that perhaps people on here are getting a little jaded and cynical. (Yeah, that may be redundantly redundant, but I don't care.) Here is my opinion on it:

I just played through version 1.2 and I can honestly say that this game is the first one since Being a DIK that I have even thought about going to their Patreon page to sign up. I think that this has the potential to easily be an all-time top 3 game on F95. I could be wrong, but it has my attention. After playing 100+ games on here over the last year, I can say that ten are memorable beyond a day or two. Five were actually good. Three made me sit up and pay attention and Radiant was one of these three.

I look forward to seeing it develop and (hopefully) finish one day. From the 4.5 stars out of 100 votes, looks like I am not the only one.

Update: After playing the second release which includes the addition of a farcical antagonist and is much shorter than the development time that was taken I've decided to lower my rating. It is doubtful that anything could live up to the first release but, even acknowledging that fact, this is still a disappointment in terms of plot advancement (is there a plot beyond the fact that women all appear in the MC's life so he can lust after, and perhaps, fuck them?).

By far one of the best games I've seen this year, the renders and storyline are excellent overall. My only hesitation is some issues with the story but it is too early to know if they will be a problem going forward. I am tired of the "one of each flavor" (blonde/brunette/redhead) type of game, I'd much rather see the characters resemble their parentage instead of trying to appeal to everyone.

Pros: Renders and animations are great, beautiful characters all around. Long first release that impresses with it's character background and story building.

Cons: Storyline is generic and has some plotholes that could be explained later. Triplets that are blonde/brunette/redhead is far fetched (admittedly that is somewhat standard for this genre).

I honestly loving this game so far.

Lots of potential for the possible routes that the devs have planned out. The renders are beautiful and the models used are appealing AF. What I love so far is the customization that youre able to do.

other than that, so far its your typical VN with basic choices. Though I'm sure that will change with time.

Awesome game if u are even the guy who skipped mostly but sometimes

read a few line the story of Radiant gonna make u read it probley the story

is really "Unique" the models are nice ,renders oh u gonna love those

beautiful renders and ur action can make small or huge impacts and u can

have several root dat make it even more HOT ,

but it lack of something

a gallery would be nice and more about past of daughters

So far so good.
As others mentioned, sometimes the writing is a little questionable, in my case it's right in the beginning when you're at home with gracie. I don't care too much, it's just the beginning. And i hope it's more like a deep story driven adventure than just in your face sexuality.

i like the models very much, but for me it is already at the limit when it comes to breast size. I don't play a lot of these games because the breasts of the women in them weigh at least 20 pounds per side, I just hate this kind of thing. it's unnatural and for me it's completely exaggerated, not even nice to look at.

Like I said, I wish they were a little smaller, but it's still ok.

The renders themselves are not in the top 10, but they don't have to be. They're totally fine and pleasant. It's still very early in development and I'm waiting for one or two newer releases before I think about supporting it on patreon, but it stands very high on my list of interests at the moment.

The cliffhanger felt a bit too much for me (story wise) but i guess it's also a demo which wants to present a certain "this is what you can expect" kind of thing. Up tp this point i like where this is going and i'm happy to follow it's development.

So far so good but a lot of hype at the moment for it. I would wait a few months for the content to get a bit chunkier before committing to follow this game. But good so far. Didn't notice much of a difference in the choices besides the dialogue, but outcomes seem predefined.

Review as of v.0.1.2

Pros:
+ Potential?

Meh:
~ Visuals are decent, but nothing more
~ Character personalities are inconsistent (if not explained later in the story, may consider this a serious minus, otherwise the little psychos may be a plus)

Cons:
- Sound design
- Surprisingly weak writing
- Working on multiple projects at once is always a worrying thing

In-depth:
I'm trying not to be too harsh on this game, because it's an early release, but still, can't help but fill a little disappointed.

The models are alright, although a bit generic. Not a fan of the very basic body types, stretchy textures and super generic hair choices.
I like the backgrounds though. They have some weird bugs, for example, the kitchen stretches as the character emotions change. But that's more hilarious than anything. Also, that was the second tiniest pizza I've seen in my life.
Nevertheless, overall the backgrounds look good.

The animations are short and a little awkward looking. Not the worst I've seen, and at least they try to play with facial expressions a little, but still, not great.

The gameplay has a lot of potential, if they manage to make their current system work. I'm genuinely intrigued by how different the routes may play. But that's for a far, far later release, I'm afraid. At this moment it's all just empty promises. We'll just have to see what becomes of them.

The writing is surprisingly weak, considering the author's previous work. It's especially noticeable during the sex scenes, they are incredibly dull and uninspired. Well... by "they" I mean the only one we've had so far, so there's not much to go by. But it is what it is.
The everyday scenes are also far from great, or even good. Many dialogues are cringy at best, the annoying "narrator" strikes back and since you can hear other characters' thoughts (you as a player, not as a protagonist), it takes away all the possible tension.
That said, the story itself seems nice so far. So maybe it's not all hopeless.

The characters, as in, their personalities, are a bit... odd? Creepy? Except for Maddie, she's great, love her. But Allie is definitely creepy, and Olivia is surprisingly bitchy. Hopefully, it will either get better, or be explained better later on. Buf for now, they are somewhat unlikeable. Again, except for Maddie.

The sound design is also pretty bad. The music is fine, albeit a bit (scratch that, A LOT) cheesy (couldn't help but roll my eyes when that generic sobby melody started playing during your talk with Olivia in the kitchen), but the sound itself, I'd definitely recommend turning off. It's sloppy, bad quality and mostly just ruins any moment.

The UI is nonexistent. On one hand, it's good, because the less stuff clutters your screen - the better. On the other hand, if the game has stats, I want to be able to track them. Still, can't say it bothers me either way.

The game is also extremely short right now. Again, you could say that it's the initial release, so no big deal. And I kinda agree. Plus it ended on a decent cliffhanger, so if the updates will be at least this wholesome, it's a good thing. But it also says a lot about the developer's impatience, if he couldn't even wait to get some content into the game before starting to monetize it. Just saying. We'll see what future updates will bring.

In all honesty, I would usually give a game like this a lower score. But I see some potential in it, plus there is some credit in the author's previous work (that is also ongoing and in an early stage, mind you, but that's a whole other can of worms), so... I'm cautiously optimistic. Hopefully, they will give me a reason to update this score soon enough. And hopefully, for the better.
Meanwhile, in its current state, this is not a game I would recommend to anyone.

Wow. Short (0.1.x), but powerful.

Stunning models (10/10). Very well made and eye for detail. Of course, these are typical very well made renpy models. But you can see the difference in the eyes. In this game, those eyes, are beautiful. No lifeless models. Very well done.

Story (9/10). You made me cry with a 0.1 version. Well done. I have my doubts about the years, skipping and how old everyone is (and looks). But I will go with the flow. Cause quality. This seems your typical sad story, here are some beautiful girls and good luck with your alignment. I am wondering what the creators have in store for it. Creativity wise.

Immersion (10/10). Important part of the game. Do the choices make sense, does it feel like rl. Well, I think it does. 3 types of "alignments" that you can choose from. From horny, kind and evil choices. Personally I leave the dark choices for when the game is finished. For 100% purposes. Whoever picks that at the start, wow, I couldnt.

Keep it up creators!

Tips:
Of course you know best what you can and cannot do. But please do not make the mistake as so many creators. Throw a lot of beautiful models our way, but by doing so, limiting yourself with story. Characters with story is better than 10 girls with weird or limited backgrounds. I am talking about the cliffhanger. That could have happened at the end of 0.2 imo.

I've just finished the first release, but I'm already sure this game has the potential to be one of the top 5 games in the site..
Story seems amazing, the gameplay is amazin (Life is Strange style, no grinding bullshit).
The renders are top notch and the girls are gorgeous.
I have nothing to complain, I'm looking forward to the next releases.

10/10

So far i am loving it , the story is good and has a lot of potential , sometimes the dark choices don't make sense cause they seem very different from the flow of the game and the MC himself , only things bugging me are , the fact 2/3 of the girls are already calling him daddy , not dad or by name even , which seems pretty weird for knowing him only for a day , Maddi seems pretty angry and yet after a day she is relaxing by the pool with a very sexy bikini , for triplets that only had each other growing up they sure seem very independent and relaxed to sleep in separate rooms after only meeting the dad for couple of hours and ... but overall this game has a lot of potential as i said and i hope the developers keep up the good work

This game is pretty damn good, near perfect even. The writing is great, apart from the beginning which had some rather awkward dialogue with the MC trying to be a tough guy.
The characters come across as interesting and real, even the comic relief workmate.

One thing that does come across as ham-fisted is the personality choices. The 3 defining points of lust, purity and darkness seem like random choices, especially in a scene where you're having a friendly chat with your coworker you can suddenly start threatening him with bodily harm, this really takes you out of it.

The renders themselves are absolutely gorgeous, woman are extremely attractive but in a natural way. One thing I could do without is the extreme closeups of some characters. It doesn't work well.
The backgrounds make sense, nothing is out of place, although it's questionable how a teenager managed to get such a sweet ride.

The music is good too, although it cuts out after awhile.

And praise the norse gods, the developer added a transparency option for the text box. God damn do you know how hard that is too find?

Overall a pretty good game.

Will try to update the review as per new updates.


I have played a few first releases before and pretty much all of them hardly ever impress but this one on the other hand is quite impressive. It has really amazing renders, amazing models, a moving storyline and majorly a good amount of content fora first release. Hadn't expected much sexual content in the first release but whatever is there currently is great and helps build the future debauchery (hopefully).

The storyline buildup is pretty great and some really good emotional connect is being build up between the characters as well as us viewers/players. This one can turn out to be a masterpiece if the creators continue their good work. Maybe can also become one of those legendary games that leave their mark. It is already trendig and getting rave reviews so we will need to wait and watch. Can't wait for the next update.
