Ren'Py - Star Channel 34 [Ep. 12] [Akabur]

The idea is quite interesting, the designs and animation are the strongest point of the game, the execution is average, since the personal does not stand out from the ordinary.
Now being more specific, the story although predictable as it is a xxx game, the characters like Lara, Lola and Ashelin are the best of the game, they are charismatic, funny, and a very good design.
On the contrary Jasmine is the most annoying of all, there are scenes where she is quite annoying, her story to date is not attractive (this can change), but she fulfills her role of being the annoying of the group.
Hermione, Lola and April I feel like they are the potential commas among the entire cast so far (this may change), the interaction between Lola and April is very funny and I hope there may be a scene between these 2 one day, Hermione's events at At first they did not bog me down but as they progressed I am interested (ESPECIALLY WHERE LUNA LOVEGOOD IS TAKING PLACE, PUT MORE LUNA LOOVEGOOD AKABUR, PLEASE).
Although the beginning is quite slow, and the decisions do not affect much either, I consider that this is the weakest part of the game, but as the game goes on it improves in that aspect (in addition to breaking the 4 wall in this).

Review up to episode 10 - This is a funny game. It is softcore porn.

The major problem: there is little porn.

This game is perhaps the biggest disappointment in the growing porn game industry. It is not bad, assuming you enjoy the art, it is actually quite fun. However, it is not even close to achieving what its prequels have: The gold standards of trainer games.

The first 3 episodes are very well paced and there is excellent character development. A good start to a porn game, most do not bother to create realistic characters.

However, episodes 4, 5, 6 and 7 introduce more and more girls to a cast of 6. For each girl, the corruption level starts at zero. So, after 3 years of development, I believe, we have literally only just left the introduction and are entering middle the part of the game.

The fourth wall is broken. The percentage of porn, story and forth wall breaking is about 5%, 15% and 80% respectively. Sexual scenarios are constantly interrupted.

The first meta joke about the lack of development is quite funny. With only 3 episodes passed, you feel safe in the knowledge it will come. The Joke is made in episode 4, 5, 6, 7 and at the start of 8. Each time, a small flame of lust will grow weaker. As you realise, you arn't playing WT or PT.

From Episode 8 the game improves. Akabur decided to fully embrace the VN style. Giving up on making a game with chioice as is the case in the first few episodes.

Episode 8 adds a very intresting element.

Episode 9, is actually good. With real character progress.

Episode 10, see’s you are starting an entirely new game. With the best CG's to date, by a full measure of quality.

Reflections:

WT and PT were very personal and intimate. You will not get the same experience.

3/5 as a porn game. Arousing like game of thrones, not really what you are there for (But sort of are though).

5/5 as a fun adventure in space.

Akabur is a genius and also very talented. the art is colorful and nice, everything seems great when you start the game. Now, for each update I expect more and hot scenes but what I get is teasing and walls of text that I really dont give a crap about. Theres a lot of girls, and a lot of talking, but no depth, its superficial and not-that-funny. We have a doll-dress-up game that feels limited and not exciting. The few full CG is not enough to get me aroused, instead I just feel what a waste of talent that keeps doing such boring games. This should be sold in Steam and converted into softcore. Enjoyment is terrible, because I just feel cheated on my time and cheated by all the teasing that right now I dont even care about anymore.

There are 4-5 different art styles in the game, which is jarring. The quality of the art is similarly all over the place. Some of the writing is good, but most of it is filler quality. Overall, less would be more.

First time playing this game, I'm a fan of the last one, I'm finding this gui very tedious to navigate every action takes 4-10 clicks to achieve anything. The Dialogue is great, this has always been Akaburs strength but the lack of animation of the sprites storming in and out of your office and very short clips on any action scenes leave me feeling very underwhelmed compared to Witch Trainer.

4/5 Stars is being a bit generous but the dialogue is fun. Hopefully Akabur can streamline the gui.

EP10

9 episodes and its finally acting like a proper porn game if it gets better ill give it 5 stars because the writing is fantastic and art is great but its feels like a lot of filler between scenes though it is getting better now. hope he does more with Ashlin though

I dont know what to say about this game.The humor is the only thing thats good in this game,i play about 8 hours and there is sooo little sex scene which is such a dissapointment,much more worse is its NTR because the girls have sex with everyone except you.I dont think this game is worth playing,you deserve better.

Has the potential to be better than both princess trainer and witch trainer,but fails to deliver.

Honestly, omega lvl disappointment. A 7hr blueballing story that's about it.

Each character's personality doesn't change,the relationships between characters remains the same for 8 fricking episodes.Some episodes are solely 7-8 (sometimes more)events of the same character ,meaning just a small story which the creator forcefully tries to drag it as much as possible by dissecting it to smaller pieces.tbh it's not even a trainer, personally I think the tag should be removed.

on the positive side,dialogs amazing and sometimes hilarious ,art is as expected amazing .

From my perspective his clever dialogs are overshadowed by the lack of content and progression. Honestly feels like a game made to impress my teenage self who saw boobs for like the 3rd time .

I hope this is akabur trying new thing or experimenting with a new way of delivering story or maybe a new format don't know ,and not him being lazy trying to soak up patreon money.

So worth playing it ? If u are in the mood for some adult humor and a good story,enable the console stock up money and enjoy said story. Otherwise you're wasting hours for nothing

Love these games, I have played both princess trainer and witch trainer before and loved both but this is hands down the funniest most enjoyable game Akabur has created. I understand that quality takes time and I wouldn't want a trade off of quality for more content but I would like it if we could do more with the girls casually soon rather than just looking at a cg or replaying the princess quest which takes a ton of uc

So, based on episode 8 it has to be said: This is complete and utter shit, lie and parody of a sex trainer, with all due respect to previous Akabur games.
It's been 2 years and we still didn't get proper sex scene.
Models are good, but few are simple rip offs from previous games and all of them has really limited poses and expressions.
Backgrounds are... well, there are some later in the game. Mostly there's some default one which is... I don't know, some net on blue. Dreadful.
Handjob scene with Jasmine (made in few varieties in PT) is now half cut down characters with some "lewd" dialogue, excuse me, but I didn't expect this to be "text based" game.

On the other side, Akabur's sense of humor and breaking of 4th wall is still amusing. It's hard to enjoy it while entire else is a piece of crap.

As of now I'm disappointed. I may try it again in future, but taking the "episodic" structure of the game I doubt I'll ever have patience to do it.

Oh, and I forgot to mention, if You're a completionist, like me, prepare to grind, and it's not easy, because of the management aspect, it's one of the most annoying grinds You can imagine.

And there's some music in the game. All that can be said about it.

Great new addition to Akabur games I'm excited to see more content. That being said there's less content in the latter half of the game.

Still the art is still excellent and the new characters are sexy as hell. A lot of the situations are still super hot and akabur does a good job corupting these sluts and revealing their kinks in sexy ways.

The worst part of the game is the grind, although IIRC the grind in Akaburs other games can also get unbearable. This is probably on a similar tier as Princess trainer, but it's less rewarding as their isn't as much content yet.

Once it's completed it will be hot as hell.

I'm sorry to say that after some of the absolute classics he has created, this is just not his best work. It's okay, but from the creator, I have unfortunately come to expect so much more.

The story lacks in a way the older ones did not and the overall layout/grind of the game is far more uncomfortable than older ones. The trainer games are absolute gems though.

Do not waste your time:

If you are reading this you want to know if this game is worth your time fapping to. It's really not because there is no sex scenes to fap to. Unless handjobs are REALLY your thing I seriously suggest you give this one a hard pass for the time being.

The story is non-existent, I love the art but with no sex scenes, there's just no point in it.

For context: I've skipped quite a few updates to this game. I haven't played it since Episode 5 came out. I played the version with Ep. 8.01 and after an hour worth of pointless dialogue, I saw Hermione at a glory hole giving 2 dry handjobs. Which in turn made me remember I was playing an adult game.

If you are a fan of the dev's previous games you will be sorely disappointed.

Super grindy without cheats. Very little sex scenes between you and the girls. The endless dialog gets boring way too quick. If you like NTR content this might be for you , otherwise it will be hugely underwhelming to see everyone enjoying the girls except you. However the art is pretty good all things considered

if you have enjoyed any Akabur's first games, you also will LOVE this one. Witty dialogues, amazing artwork and good story. I also did not encounter any bugs or obvious inconsistencies. If I had to complain about something, the episodes are typically about 1 girl. So if you fancy 1 particular girl you may have to wait 2-3 update cycles before you get more content for your waifu.

It is an Akabur game, so playing Witch Trainer and Princess Trainer will give you a good idea about the quality of the game.

I have to mention the most glaring deficit at the moment: the hero doesn't get to fuck any of the girls in the current state of the game. This does not mean he gets no action at all, or that there is no fucking whatsoever, but there is an undeniable lack of penetrative sex. Again, "at the moment"; the game is still in development and it will most definitely happen at some point.

What I like about this game is the variety of girls. I personally dislike Jasmin and care little about April, but dig all the other girls. But, that variety comes with downsides of course: you never know when the girl you favour (Hermione!) gets a new batch of content (feels like ages ago).

The downsides could justify a deduction of one star, but the art is great, the coding is done well enough - I never noticed a bug - and the gameplay is slightly grindy but is done in a way that does not feel annoying, which is a rare achievement.

I personally favour Akabur's humour and the way he writes sex scenes above all other comparable game developers. Those aspects are never awkward, or if they are, then it feels intentional and adds to the comedy. The game is worthy to be played for the LOLs alone.

By the way, the current "cover art" (as of may 2019) is a fan art and does not reflect the actual artstyle found in game.

5/5, can't wait for more!

i'm a big fan of Akabur work.
this game lacks in porn aspect but its funny as hell and enjoyble.
i would recomend this to every one!
Art is great and the story written in very good maner
there are no problems while running preogram

Love this game. The art style is excellent, there is a great writing style, and I like the overarching theme/story.

I hope the full game includes the great corruption elements we've seen in other games like this. So far with the characters, we are seeing that.

Also, good characterization. Each one feels unique and tuned to a specific type.

Akabur Games are usually really fun when completed... Because the level of content usually accelerates in the 3rd quarter of the game (around 3 years after it's started). I wish he used all that money he's getting to maybe, hire someone to help him. But don't let this sad truth deter you from what is overall a decent game. Just one you probably play once and never play again.

Love the art, love the graphic novel style, love the story and love the characters!
-The episodic nature of the game makes it really easy to jump in to the game and get a taste of the goodies which is the best part of the game.
-Some features are disjoint from episode to episode but it seems to be a easy fix with a bit of polishing in the finished product.
