VN - Ren'Py - SpaceCorps XXX [S2 v2.7.7] [RanliLabz]

This... this is a masterpiece.

It is beautiful.

It is hilarious.

I was a bit prejudiced about this game for reasons I don't know, but once I gave it a try, it became one of my two favorite games around here (the other is Being a Dik).

Look, the game has 3 planned phases, and so far we get the 1st phase done (Visual Novel), and the beginning of phase 2 (somewhat of a sandbox still being worked on).

The 1st season has brilliant writing where you play a fundamentalist christian/goodboy/cowboy with a low IQ, but a heart of gold, just as he gets enlisted in the Union SpaceCorps. Coming from a very naive, innocent upbringing, he is oblivious to pretty much everything, until he starts to face certain... situations.

You can play him as keeping his faith (with some very humorous dialogues), or slowly awakening his sexual instinct. You can choose pretty much every route you want to tackle with him, including different love interets, sexual preferences and kinks.

But.

The great thing here where the game and plot REALLY SHINES is the humor. RanliLabz, the creator of SpaceCorps XXX does and outstanding job where the script is genius!

Add to that his choice of soundtrack for certain scenes, and I laughed my ass off...

Many situations happen in daydreamings of the MC, and I don't want to spoil anything, but let's say that some of my favorite scenes so far were the Titanic Love Interest + the Two Moons with Love Interest + Finding Anna...

It's definitely a 11/10 on every aspect.

While I had my gripes with how choices were handled for game over situations and feeling a bit frustrated, I have to say that I overall enjoyed the game. I like how the models look, I have to say most if not all of them are sexy or at least appealing. The MC is kind of a dumbass, but he's also kind of endearing where I want to help him to become a true studly sex beast. The thing I most liked despite my gripes with the choices was that it actually felt like my choices mattered for most of the choices I had to make like I actually had to think about what choices I wanted to make and what choices I had to make, it was a little annoying for some choices but I overall liked that about the game.

I would give the game a strong 3 but since the star system doesn't let me give 3..7 stars and because I want more people to try the game so it can keep getting traction I'll give it a 4

Listen, I really tried to love this game. Almost everything about this game is well done, for what it is, it's a porn game with a variety of fetishes, and that's an understatement. The only problem with this damn game is the protagonist, this MF is dumber than a bag of rocks it's past funny. It feels like I'm navigating a spineless infant through the story, and I get it, it's intentional, but seriously, it's impossible to immerse yourself in the game when you are presented with fake options leading to death scenes NOT by logical consequence, but by the sheer stupidity of the MC being unable to think and act rationally. Part of the joy of playing porn games is being able to empathise with the characters, but in this case, there's literally nothing worth valuing about the MC. It feels so irritating and humiliating playing as him that I just...can't bro.

Anyway, here goes:

Pros:

- insane amount of kinks and fetishes
- story is linear and you're allowed to "return" to your choice after a bad end to re-do the storyline, meaning you never really miss any content unless you want to
- graphics and sex scenes are alright, not the best but I've seen worse

Cons:

- weird as fuck scenerios
- MC has a negative IQ and it never gets better
- avoidable NTR, but NTR nonetheless
- illogical story, but it's intentional and I find the humor alright, but if you're the type to enjoy immersing yourself in a game, taking it too seriously might take a toll on your mental health

Summary: You know, there's a fine line between funny and ridiculous, and as much as this game appeals well to those attracted to the former, I just can't handle playing as the protagonist. Sorry, gonna have to drop this, but it's a great game to try nonetheless, you might love it or hate it.

This game is one of the worst i have ever played if i could rate it with a zero i would easily MC is lame and weak story is non existant Female interests are counted on the fingers of one hand 4 or 5 because the rest are ugly...

Story-boring or non existant 0 star

Female Characters- 70% are ugly as s**t 1 star

Renders- good but could be way better 2 stars

MC-weak, insignificant lame 0 stars

Incredible! Something here for everyone and it's all top-notch. The included walkthrough is a great touch, and the characters and relationships are well-written. There's also a lot of choice throughout to tailor your playthrough, and a ton of great scenes in each route. Extremely well done

Last version played: 1.0.1 S1 Final

Hilarious depraved bastard son of "Bill, the Galactic Hero" (the also hilarious 1965 Harry Harrison satirical response to Heinlein's "Starship Troopers"), this can be easily the most funny game in the site. It made me laugh out loud a lot of times.
For the lewd part, the game is extremely sexually inclusive. but I've got to confess that as much as I've enjoyed the game, I don't think it's specially hot. But, who needs sex when you're crying with laughter?

The game is a mess. It's a relatively fun, relatively frustrating adventure with a lot (and I mean a LOT) of branching paths and...that's about it.

The thing about the game is that it might as well be a "pick your ideal porn scenario" simulator and if that's what you want then absolutely, you'll have a fun time but if you want anything else, forget it.

The ridiculous volume and variety of porn are clearly something the game is trying to achieve but it trying to accomplish that while juggling everything else and at least so far it does not work. To say this game has more fetishes than plot points would be overselling how many plot points it has because it is not close. I can think of 4, maybe, and 3 of them amount to nothing concrete, just a whole lot of foreshadowing. Apart from that the bulk of the gameplay is just a lot of wacky adventures in which nothing of relevance happens. They are just a set to maximise exposure to sexual scenarios the player can be put through.

The game has been in development for 3 years and we have 1 day of in game content. I don't mean that in the sense it has a small amount of content, in fact it has a very large amount of "content". I mean that in the sense it is meandering as hell and that pacing would never work to tell a coherent story, which it does seem to be trying to do.

TL;DR it's porn. If it's trying to be more than porn, it's doing it poorly.
Pros: Lots of content, huge variety, lots of player agency
Cons: The rest of it

I just love this game. Very good story, very good renders! There is a lot to read, to see and to choose also.

No matter what you like or dislike, you can, instead of reading a story, make your own story.

I truly hope that there will be many new seasons im future. keep up this excellent work...!

The music will get on your nerves after 20 minutes. Don't know why the dev decided every accompanying track needed to be a pun, hearing "Under Pressure" when you're motorboating a woman isn't all that funny.

Making fetish choices doesn't matter cause it will still show you stuff you don't want to see, most of the content is mediocre at best. Way too much forced "humor" and too many unskipable music video cutscenes. Would rather play unpatched cyber punk.

I don't even understand how this game managed to get so many good reviews. This game has fictitious fetish options, and no matter what you choose, you will see scenes that you don't want to see, such as gay, futa, ntr, rape, swinging, and so on, so nothing is disabled, and even those scenes that you don't see are happening in the background, such as your potential sister fucking someone, so I don't recommend this for incest fans. The other bad thing is humor. It must have been written by some political person with a bias against conservatives, so expect typical leftie "humor". On the plus side, the animations are quite good, but with how at least half, if not the majority, of the characters look like some gay/leftie fantasy, typical person gonna have problems bring themselves to fully enjoying them.

+ Animations
+ Some characters look nice.
- But the majority is ugly
- Terrible humor
- Fake fetish choices
- Walls of text in a game that focuses on humor
- Unwanted content shown in your face

This game is pretty fun. It's about the content and the journey is something you can prebuilt by following the walkthrough that shows and build around your interest. While the unlock will be significantly higher if you are very very very open minded, the game maintain some good level of humour, some storyline that is not overbearing for my taste with a good amount of sex scene to story ratio.

Going blind can bring some level of discomfort if you're more a cis-straight male into hot girls sex... you'll be skipping A LOT while retaining some level of the story.

It's one of those game that has so many tags that if let's say 25% of the tags are really your thing and 75% isn't to the same level, you'll find it hard to enjoy a lot.

The quality of the scene are ok to good but for me, this game would take it to the next level if the scenes were more animated, more choices in the scene.
E.I let's same you unlock a gay scene, you can choose to dom or not, if it was previously unlocked.

Overall I feel it's a fun game with even more potential.
I would give this game a high 3.5 stars, weak 4/ 5 stars

Version: v0.3.8

This entire games story makes me feels whiplashed every 10 minutes, genuinely feels like a sort of fever dream where i have no idea where am i going to go in the next half an hour. Because of that i didnt quite enjoy the story, even if it was a little humorous.
I did appreciate the visuals though, the 3D renders have been getting a lot of attention from the devs and kudos to them for this. The scenes themselfs were quite vanilla with some truly alien species which i found new and refreshing, after all, if we are in space with many sentient species it would feel weird if they were just humans with a different reskin.

I enjoyed this game, to an extent.

Version Reviewed : 0.3.8

Someone here said this game is focused on porn - simply not true. I would even argue there's not that much of it as of right now (though I went for the straight content mostly). There is a lot of nudity, true, but a lot of it is non-sexual in nature.

The game is dialogue-heavy, but I thought it was well-written and intriguing, with some decent mysteries already in-place as well as potential foreshadowing - we shall see.

Music is a big part of the game (200+ songs right now), and a lot of them fit nicely, though I do find some choices weird.

The renders are superb from the start, but the "animations" are very lacking and, one could say, non-existent, but I don't really mind.

It's a very good story-driven game, I'm looking forward to future updates, but I will wait a while for more development.

It's more a 4.5/5 tho, gem in the rough.

2/4/2022
Just did my first playthrough of this. It is a great no grind experince. That said I was glad for the rollback function and even the back in time option to you last choice,i died 3-4 times or so. It was still fun! If you have any fetish,any kink...well it is likely in the game and it is also avoidable. It really is an amazing feat. The humor is good,the music is even funny when it should be. The art work is well above average. I think this is only my 3rd 5 star rating ever(lately it has be a sea of 2 and 3 stars). So thank you for the game.

1/5 - DNF; Didn't get me off

Unlike most VNs, SpceCorps XXX fully focuses on the porn. It's refreshing to play a VN that doesn't bore with drawn-out romances or end-of-the-world bullshit. Nearly every scene in the game is a porn scene with just a bit of story sprinkled in to keep it interesting. There are lots of choices, but though some scenes do have multiple routes, overall most choices don't matter much. This structure gives the game an episodic feel, where you just jump from one porn scene to the next.
This structure obviously hurts the story. While it isn't terrible, the humour certainly is. Every 10 lines of dialogue there'll be a cringy juvenile joke. You'll end up wanting to facepalm before long. The game reminds me of those shows on Cartoon Network aimed at 12 year old kids who think they are adults. I can't stress how much this hurts the game.

For a game so focused on the porn, you'd expect the porn to be good - it isn't. The animations are just 2-3 frames back and forth, and even the renders are ugly. Many characters have cartoony facial expressions, many characters have ridiculous body proportions. The men especially are all rendered as super skinny with large pecs, which makes them look feminine. Speaking of femininity, a large portion of the content is focused on femdom and bisexual sex.
While you can choose not to be bisexual, you will still frequently be shown cocks and asses. While you can choose to avoid muscle women, you will still have to wrestle with one. While you can choose to avoid aliens, you will still remark how hot they are. If there's one thing I want to get across with my review it's this - don't play the game if any of the tags disgust you.


+ Very helpful in-game walkthrough

- Way too many jokes about religion. It comes off more as forcing an agenda than trying to be funny

I love when a VN set in sci-fi setting actually contains a ton of species with their own lore, plot role and distinctive appearance (hello to y'all VN human female «aliens» with colored eyes/skin and horns). You want an alien? A human? A synth/robot? An AI? Creatures that bear resemblance to Altmers of TES or Night Elves of Warcraft? This game has it all!

Plot is alright so far, but this guy's no George Lucas, so go easy on him.

Gameplay is solid, only with minor sandbox/point&click moments. There's a Relationship tracker as well as some RPG elements and kink traits implemented.

Only one huge drawback for me is implementation of the kinks, as some of them seem useless (gays) and tend to pull the focus from the straight scenes. If you choose to skip the kink it will be disabled, BUT you'll be presented with the same choice later on.
I understand that, for example, one hot scene contains a little FemDom (The Interrogation) and it's HOT, so you wouldn't want to skip that. But is it so hard to make gay content dissapear once I ditch it?? OR make it even easier - ask me at the beginning of the game like most devs do with NTR!

It would be exciting to see the end-product, but unfortunately that won't happen as soon as I'd like.

If you're into sci-fi with well-detailed aliens you should give it a go.

8/10

Only the visuals are good. Not a great story , and the scripts are neither funny nor humorous. There are some forced-choice one has to make if he wants to develop a relationship further with that character. I also did not like the mc , his characterization.

I just spent ages writing a long florid rewiew of this game and clicked off the damn text box to find that loses everthing i've just written.

So here it is one more time. Great game. The naive sheltered MC being brought into a world where his horizons will be expanded, sets the scene for a good story. And there's a hook there for everything not to be as it seems with our MC too.

There is almost every kink you could imagine available and a few you didn't, which is great but that leads to the first potential problem. It means loads of work for the devs and the updates arent that big so far, but they have been regular. I love the fact that I can cuck Cole and steal his LI's and make him watch (a favourite of mine) and I'm hoping I can share her/them in front of him too. Bring the filth!

I just wish I could say I'd come back in two years (and I'm pretty sure this dev will still be going then, going by their previous updates) but I just can't stop myself DLing every time I see it on that latest update list.

Keep it up RanliLabz DeviantArt . Love your work and keepthe filth coming

It's a good game, very funny and with a good sellection of music. Many people don't understand that this is a WIP, so some mechanics don't work 100% and cry when they see a penis. It's pretty well written and has some really good jokes. I've really enjoyed playing it.
