VERSION: v0.1
SUMMARY: Solid start, but tries to reconcile its plot in illogical and far-fetched ways that are simply not believable or even interesting.

PROS: 
- See my opinions section for details.
- Decent looking female models, MC is not too bad looking either, could be better though.
- Writing is pretty good, reads well, short but sweet, not overly drawn out or annoying dialogue. I also like how the developer is subtle with his character expressions and the naturalness of the dialogue, its flows really nicely.
- Story seems intriguing and different from the norm, but...see Cons
- Characters appear to be semi interesting at least and have complex personalities and emotions that show well on the characters themselves.
- Audio is fairly decent, nothing to report on all fronts, but so far not bad.
CONS: - See my opinions section for details.
- I am if two minds when it comes to the plot, I find it interesting and well thought out, at least to how the VR MC's day/life progresses. Yet the also its very disconnected from any logic, so much so that I am not enjoying it as I would like to. See my comments below
- Little to any H-content.
- Animations are not horrible, but not really great, e.g. VR MC fiddling with friends nipple looks like its being inflated when he pulls on the nipple. Lighting is also off on this a bit.
- UX is a bit off with the dark blue menu colour, its too dark for my liking.
- Music volume seems inconsistent, would be nice not to need to adjust it from one moment to next e.g. start music then jump to diner where the dad meets step-mother.
- Another point on the UI is the dialogue box itself can use some settings like opacity, font size and font outline, some scenes the text is hard to read in its current state.
- Would be nice if the dev puts in a higher quality image on zoomed characters, the low quality is all I see, which is not why you want to zoom in...
- Dialogue between VR MC and "real" MC or his world should have a very different font or look to ensure its kept distinct and there is no confusion...
OPINIONS, SUGGESTIONS & FINAL REMARKS:
NOTE: The following remarks are my personal opinions and thoughts, which may provide more context and could be useful to the developer. (Read them or don't)
- While "technically" the MC pursuing relations or having sex with his fathers wife and/or her daughter, they not related in any sense of the word i.e. by blood, so technically its not considered incest or taboo...
- The plot itself while kinda interesting also kinda makes me skeptical, that the way to save the sun is through information gathered in a simulation that is so sophisticated, made by a company no ones knows and is so clandestine that any interference is publishable by death?
- About the plot, the issue is that the writer is trying to reconcile 2 very different concepts (worlds) here and it simply doesn't fit i.e.
- Mismatch of stakes vs. solution - The sun dying is a physical astrophysical event. You don’t solve stellar collapse by poking around in a VR casino. Unless the simulation is literally a predictive model of stellar physics, the connection is absurd. It’s like saying: “The cure for cancer is hidden in Fortnite.”
- For tampering with a game to be punishable by death, the company would need global sovereignty. That’s not just implausible—it’s lazy worldbuilding. Even megacorps in cyberpunk settings rely on governments or shadow wars, not open execution rights. You need an established world order that could issue such policies and actions...
- This is the biggest leap. An “artifact” in a virtual world can’t affect stellar physics unless the VR is secretly a quantum computer running simulations that can manipulate reality. But the VN doesn’t set that up—it just says “find the thing in the VR.”
- I am very much on the fence also about the logic and world building. The entire premise is built on too many variables and implausible conditions that are as incoherent as they are far-fetched and I have read a good few weird sci-fi books that will make your eyes bleed for their complexity, THIS goes beyond complex, its simply nonsense. The sun dying idea is good and humans trying to find a solution is fine, but doing it in a VR makes no sense, perhaps this changes and I hope it does but im not seeing it right now.
TLDR:
The concept as I said is good and some ideas are pretty clever and intriguing, and has some ideas that remind you of The Matrix. I honestly would give this AVN 5 stars just for that. The quality of the AVN is overall good and some issues noted are easy to fix, the main being the plot and how its all connected that concerns me.
So far its interesting, but I am still on the fence so ill reserve judgement until more content is released and I get a more clear picture of what the writer is trying to do. Will re-review again in the future.
