VN - Ren'Py - Sinful Vampires [v0.4.3] [Hematite]

After a rather grim start, this VN really starts to find it's footing. The protagonist is a social liability, who just happens to be a genius...however, the 'genius' part of her is often AWOL and you are left with a socially incoherent mess. Her life is saved by a vampire and thus the story begins...
This VN is still in it's infancy, but it has awesome potential to be one of the best vampire VN's we've ever had!
Good luck to the developer! I'll be following this closely.

My favorite genre of AVN is horror/supernatural with a female protag. Admittedly, there are not that many decent ones on here and even less where you don't have the MC just being a fuck toy for boys to get their jollies off. This one lets us choose most sexual content, thankfully.

The plot is pretty rudimentary but revolves around the MC becoming a vampiress, her attempts at coming to terms with being a fledgling bloodsucker with zero powers and also at the mercy of more powerful vamps. She can fuck up humans though and it's satisfying to be able to dismember baddies and put a high heeled boot in their scrotums

We can play as a passive, peaceful type for good or the much more fun (for me) foul mouthed, bad ass bitch and embrace your vampyness for a more selfish, evil style. If I became a vampire I would embrace that shit and be an evil, sexy bloodsucking bitch...hey, fuck those twilight sparkly emo vamps...I'd be hanging out at the Titty Twister for my meals...

I liked the transformation of the MC with her hair, slutty outfits (hey embrace your inner slut girl) and her makeup. She makes quite an attractive vamp, although the dev went a bit over the top in the tits dept...*sigh* guys...

Lewd scenes can be avoided mostly, although there is some tentacle/plant porn shit that you stumble upon. Hopefully the dev is not gong.down that route...that shit is just nasty, leave for those AVNs that cater for that crowd.

After reading some guys whining about lesbian content, I will just add that yes, lesbian scenes can be avoided and it will be just another corruption story that allows the MC to be treated as a fucktoy

The story and dialogue at times is a bit rough, but some of the dialogue when MC just goes full bat shit crazy had me giggling...she can also be a bit dense for a scientist but overall I found it funny how unpredictable MC can be....one minute acting polite to a powerfull millenial vampiress, the next....going full tourette syndrome on her

One thing I noticed was certain dialogue choices seemed to show no noticeable difference regardless of what I chose. Seducing a certain human girl had options to say she was a doll to play with or that she needed love, yet the following scenes didn't vary at all despite these choices. I'm not sure if they were for hidden variables to decide if MC will be good or evil?

This is a fun AVN with hot vampire girls (The 69 Eyes "Dead girls are easy" is perfect for background music!) and a coming of age story mixed with some dismembering fun should you want it...oh you know you do!

While lacking in some areas, I'm looking forward to more of this AVN, it made me laugh so I'm down with it for some good relaxing fun.

Absolutely loved it! Loved the whole idea, the domination play, the transformation, the protagonist getting her body enhanced, the mistery of Jill, the good soundtrack, the answers to dictate your character feelings about new experiences. Really good and beautiful animations, I will sure support it on Steam. Good luck to the dev and keep up with the nice work! Love to you all <3

[v0.3.5]

Yuup, liked this:

• nice girls, renders;
• nice/entertaining story (not too deep, not too shallow);
• some sexy les (vamp <> vamp & vamp <> human) action (no dicks) (scenes);
• going on dev notes, male & futa interactions & group stuff are planned;
• nice clothes/outfits;
• able to choose (at various moments) between being more of a tough cold bitch, or more refined/loving/caring (I opted for the latter) (not sure if certain (early) choices actually put you on a certain path or not);
• good pacing, concise dialogs, no walls of text;
• had a couple of laughs as well;
• writing is okay, although some poor English here & there, but fair enough / tolerable;
• some hardcore action (gore) (the b*tch can get brutal! );
• nice/good eclectic soundtrack (inc. vocal tracks). Music alternates nicely fitting/following the (progress of the) scene; feels quite filmic;
• there are ambient sounds as well (e.g. the sound of the city);
• there's some sfx; sound design (music+ambient+sfx) is pretty good. No sex sfx or moaning;
• okay anims (sex scenes, complementary, it's more render + dialog focused);
• about ~1h of content ATM.

Somewhere between 4 & 5 stars for me, giving it 4 for now!
