Ren'Py - Completed - Space Journey X [v2.00_010d] [y.v.]

I can't stop "playing",
fantastic models, the only game where the characters are not wide-eyed, despite few activities and slow development, offers space & sci-fi immersion superior to other titles with pharaonic crowdfunding.

update: the game allows a true immersive simulation in a spatial and interconnected universe where humans have a desire to connect to each other, it allows a greater number of interactions with NPCs even than games like Starfield aka the blurry universe or No man sky where people have replaced the smartphone on their face with a helmet on their face. But have you ever had a helmet on your head? Do you know that due to the laws of physics it is impossible to create a "breathable" helmet unless you stick an alien dick in it and make you cum directly in your esophagus? Therefore, only with a parasite suit would it be possible to spend more than half an hour with a helmet on. This makes the great visionary developers understand how many resources they have spent on their artist shit. I wish the best to this developer who can one day fuck where champions dare... in Soveingard! I also saw his new work and also the cross-promotion that he created, congratulations!

Amazing game. The characters look hot in the uniquely cartoon style, and the foundational elements are all laid for a really good and well-paced corruption game. Basically shaping up to be Princess Tower++ in terms of scope and polish. Updates are blessedly regular.

Great art and character design. Well-programmed (no bugs) and universe is fleshed out with events/art/dialogue.

Some aspects are a bit grindy but quests are clear and progress the story. Only part that I got stuck for a bit was the maintenance task to repair floor boards (had to hover over slower to find which one to fix). Would like maintenance tasks to have a bit more chance for hot situation instead of just completing. Seems game is still early in terms of planned content but a good amount of content for game age . Hoping there is more time spent on later stages of training (felt creator's last game ended a bit soon after reaching end stages).

0.4 version Review

The game can be a bit grindy in the beggining to get the ability to go elsewhere. However, this was one of the few games that the "game" vertent of other things you have to do doesn't bother me as much as in other games, maybe because I am a bit tired of games where you only select scenes all the way through. Now it is not free of flaws, one of the main ones for me is the inability to skip specific bits of time, you can skip the nap from anywhen directly to 18:00 and the sleep to the next day, considering you sometimes have to talk to specific characters it would be nice a spend time option.
The interactions between characters seems interesting, maybe ther could be a higher interaction in sexual scenes, even if they are few right now

Tha game kept me interested to see what is next, and will update this in the future as new versions come out

Right, the Dev reached out to me. and i am looking forward to see the results.

But i will not be swayed by simple recognition and flattery.
I will be strong and hold firm my conviction.

I still give this game 5 starts and recommend it.


----------------------------------
this game is a bit of love/hate relationship to me, the same way the former game was.

the bad:
the game is grindy, and you can have problems finding the right thing to click on, but the Dev is aware of this and is actively trying to find way's to make it all more intuitive, without scarifying gameplay.

the Good:
the pictures are great.
i really like the gallery, with the hints.
there is a hint system in place, but not all hints are clear enough (yet)
the grindy bits makes the rewards feel more rewarding.


but i do feel like the good outshines the bad.
and definitely worth your time.

if you have not tried The Princess and the Tower yet.
and can get past that you play a goblin.
i highly suggest you give that one a spin too.

after playing through the current build (v0.3a), i actually enjoyed this one! this was my first title i played from this dev and it was surprisingly good! however there isn't much to it yet and unfortunately left me wanting more! i did like the fact that you can keep playing and grinding out credits and subunits to be way overpowered when new content comes out, but as far as any story progress and progress with the women... well you have to wait for further updates for that!

i really liked T'Riss character model (the tanlines and pubic hair were awesome), would like to see more of the girls later in the game with similar body types! i hope the characters personalities will kinda soften up after you train them to a certain point because aside from the android (V), the other girls seem pretty hostile toward the MC! T'Riss becomes more open to sexual things but she still feels like your getting a handy from a female klingon who looks like a human! i guess that and the fact that there need to be a few other crew members or even girls on the space station/ planets that we can fool around with are my only real complaints here!

as far as visuals go, i think the game excels at that! gameplay wise... maybe have the little droid give us a bit more of a tutorial on how to do the mining as i totally skipped my first haul because after reading the instructions page i missed the tiny text under the mining field that told you to press "space" to mine so i pressed "x" and left with nothing! i also resorted to using the walkthrough but a more in depth hint system or maybe a function where you can pay your droid buddy like 10 credits or something so he can give you a detailed tip on what the game recommends you do next. sound and music seem to fit the situation but would like to have the music that plays when you start a new day last a bit longer than when you leave your room! the only other thing i want to comment on is how i still havent been able to find where im supposed to hang the star wars parody poster. so i have no idea what i was supposed to do with that item!

overall the game was good and i gave it a solid 4 stars with a recommendation to check it out if you like sci fi stuff and boobs! (no actual sex yet, but the naked girls and space stuff looks awesome)

Review for v0.3a

This has the same problem as a lot of other trainer-style games for me. A severe lack of any character depth. The amount and substance of the dialogue is truly minimal, and there is no complexity here.

I do think the foundation is great. The character models have a unique style, the environments look good, I like the upgrade system, and the mining/trading mechanic isn't that bad. But the world feels empty. There's no personality to it.

Now I usually don't mind grind, and expect it with this type of game. But literally everything requires it. Want to see this meaningless handjob scene? Go repeat this trivial task 5 times first. Oh you want to see a slight variation of it? Do the exact same thing 5 more times. Ok now if you want to see the blowjob scene, go blow 15k credits first.

The whole game feels like this, and the rewarded scenes are honestly not at all appealing enough to feel worth it imo. You get a quick animation loop with maybe a couple lines of dialogue if you're lucky. I'm not expecting the writing to be stellar for games like this, nor does it need to be. But it doesn't feel like any effort was put into it at all.

Grind, get a quick animation, repeat. If you're super into trainer games you might enjoy it, but I wouldn't recommend this otherwise as of this version. Granted it is early, so maybe some of the things I didn't like will change.

So far incredible! 5 STARS
Now sure it's low on content right now but it's so very early in.
The content that IS here is enjoyable!
I will say it's not an entirely straightforward gameplay, I expect the average person to either need to check the walkthrough for a couple things. With that being said, if you do read all of the text you can figure mostly everything out without checking the walkthrough.
The character models are very clearly unique and yet incredibly attractive. The attitude/personality of the main female is unique and attractive as well!
The gameplay is somewhat repetitive, but not in a completely terrible way, it could be really grindy but if you play efficiently, it's also extremely easy.
Normally I would give some precise feedback, however I don't see the need in this case. The game clearly has a good direction going and sounds great having monthly releases planned, hope to see a good amount of content each time, so that it feels rewarding to play more.
Try out the game see if it's for you, if it feels too slow or confusing you might need to read more text and use the walkthrough, this isn't just a visual novel!
Good luck to the Dev! Keep it up!

Good release, interesting game that I'll watch. Interesting story and game mechanics, it's nice to see a space game that's not boring. Upgrading your ship is fun. There's also a light amount of minigames.
I like the character models, very different from the usual art style that we see over and over again.
Thanks Dev and good luck with your game.
