Ren'Py - Onhold - Star Mars [v0.9.1b] [Magic Dude]

0.9.1b (by feels the stories are at most 60% ready, even that would make it a single chapter but decent lenght for a small scale, possibly solo project porn games usually are)
This game makes many decisions that are a slightly weird or just not to my taste but Im still excited to see where it goes when it continues.
First of all the parody thing cheapens it a bit i think creating your own universe would have helped immersion. MC choices and other characters motivations are not terrible, but a bit arbitrary for the story's sake at a few places, but again its subtle i think we can roll with it.
I enjoyed most lewd scenes and glad there is no grinding (timed minigame skippable, money you get is enough).
I dont find some of the main girls pretty, well the girl-girls are ok but the futas have hotter moms than they are, which is a shame because both Zara and Lana have a decent setup in the way you get to know them. But I dont see why mc crushes on her and thats just one more thing making self insertion harder in addition to his other feelings and choices. Im not into interracial so it may be partly my bias, but ive seen exceptions in other games when i was into a black girl. Gang leader looks good but is a side character / only 1 scene only so far.
I could have lived without seeing the mc in a wig frowning at getting cream. Expressions are so vivid and cranked up to 11 it can be a bit grotesque, especially when masc face with wig and makeup is grotesque anywhere by default. At least dildo masturbation is skippable. Even though he is the most well done render, im still not here for a dude. Losing abilitiy to cum except from anal is a very hot idea, but there is a caveat in the game which also negates how limiting (and therefore kinky) it is.
Chastity was introduced for one scene then quickly got rid of, i guess it had to be considering how open the game is with the order in which you progress the character stories. Depsite the free-roam it can still feel limiting, i dont understand the Lana quest requirement for unlocking the gym with Zara, and i got a lot of action on the station only to get to being shy and claiming its my first with Lana later on. Certain events have to be progressed at certain daytimes but i only have evening events left and ran out of options to progress daytime, or maybe there is an easy way to do it i just havent found it.
There is also a bug with finding Lana on the station becoming impossible, not sure what causes it but my first bet would be visiting the ship or clicking a location that was added later before we checked everywhere we meant to. (so dont forget to save from time to time)
So game is imperfect, weird, unserious (not a problem for everyone) but there are both hot scenes and ok character relations, which for me still makes in enjoyable and waiting for more.

Very nice game.

Cool setting, good balance between text and graphics. Animations are quite nice. Good alternative while waiting for an update for Star Periphery .

I would definitely recommend it. It is a shame it was abandoned by the author.

Very Juicy !! Has both futa x male and straight content. Loved the character designs and story upto now. This game is very promising. I had a bit of trouble to figure out where the omega station is exactly located but otherwise the game was very smooth.

The dev had decided to lock futa behind a paywall and got his ass beat in the reviews for that, but that's no longer the case. Star Mars has both straight and futa with you being able to the futa sometimes. It's not just futadom torture bullshit though, thankfully. The variety is the best thing about it.

I like this game. Definitely for the futa enjoyer otherwise you will feel the scenes with cis female are pretty limited.
For me it kind of feel like a Isekai where the MC saves the black girl and upon getting up in a space his life is in shamble where he gets kidnapped by some space pirate who traffic him into a space whore. He get on a mission to hack a exploration vessel but gets used to being comfortable, doesn't hack and flee on that space ship.

From there he meet the girls and a bunch of stuff happens, amongst them having his futa harem.

First of i will not focus on the developer putting the main thing people wanted from this game the futa content behind a Patreon paywall it's extremely scummy to do that like a year later all of a sudden he should have done that from the beginning if he wanted to do that those are my thoughts about is now to the actual review

So let's start with the story:

The story is your typical isekai but instead of being reborn in a fantasy world he gets reborn in a future or something on a space ship in a guy's body that just died not fully original but still a little bit better than the typical isekai than he get's introduced to the futa characters which is a fictional race made up to explain why girls with dicks exist pretty corny if you ask me but better than them just existing with no explanation anyway that's all i'll say about the story

Now let's talk about the character models and their personality:

First the models not gonna lie some of the girls look pretty good and their expressions are pretty good they look hot but basic nothing really interesting but still hot the main character looks like the typical MC the dickgirls look really good and their dicks look great and huge which is a plus at least for me and there is variety in their dick sizes and color etc, now let's talk about one of my main problems their personality's let's start with the MC because he is the worst character of the game first of he is a pervert pretty typical for a porn game like this my problem is in the beginning he is absolutely appaled by the dickgirls than he starts to like it than he hates that he's actually loving getting fucked by them then he try,s to show them who the real "man" is then he goes back to being submissive etc, you see my problem i was hoping he would open up to being fucked and dominated by the dickgirls but just as he is he turns around to wanting to be dominant again and he goes back and forth constantly as for as i've seen atleast it's annoying and kills my boner when he just can't make up his mind he just makes no sense which one is it already! And that's my main problem with the MC also i'm going to go on a small rant i'm sick and tired of all these futa on male games having male MC's that hate being fucked by dickgirls for like 1/3 of the game it's a complete boner kill why can't people just make games where the MC secretly wants dickgirls to fuck him why is it always hating if for the first part alteast of the game for me that's a total boner kill anyway on to the futa's and there's not really much to say they are pretty boring they just want to fuck the MC and dominate him and trying to be nice only to be taken over by their lust to fuck him you know what m talking about the typical just badly written honestly i don't wanna talk more about the characters

Now let's talk about the absolute worst part of this game the writing this is my MAIN problem with the game and the real reason why i'm giving it a 3/5 i'm gonna try to keep this more short the writing is how do i say this oh yeah the game can't take itself seriously for a second it's constantly trying to be funny and have some serious and hot moments which fails 90% of the time it also doesn't help the the english is not the best with a decent amount of spelling mistakes the worst one is when the MC talks about the dickgirls well dicks he alway calls their dick him like for instance do i suck him or is she really putting him in me not actuall lines in the game but it shows my point so my main problems with the game is i can't take the game and the characters serious because of the constant need for humor and bad english it's incredibly immersion breaking and destroy's what could be seriously hot futa on male scenes

The music:
What can i say stock music used in 90% of porn games boring repetitive nothing more to say

So in conclussion: the dev is a scumbag for putting the one thing people actually kinda liked behind a paywall all of a sudden after about a year of development, the graphics are good but basic, the characters personality is inconsistent, the english is subpar, the writing is awfull, and the music is bland, the game could have been something special but the developer can't realise it 3/5

The only thing I don't like about this game is the slow and buggy map which takes quite a bit out of the experience. Other than that I am on game with everything.

I agree with others about how some interactions don't make sense story-wise but I say this is a porn game. There is a ratio between story and sex and this game treads between the two admirably.

Now that the 3rd futa on the roster is confirmed to be the pirate queen, I can't wait to find out who the other one is. Also, I find it quite sexy that Asha is game with joining the harem. Keep at it.

Make the map smoother and I will change my rating.

Graphics: 4
Superb original models.
Great animations, but too short.
___________________________________________________________________________________
gameplay: 3
2 very simple and optional quick aim mini games, including one bugged. You can spend them and get half the money, which is enough, because you can do them again and again when the money becomes useful.
Our few dialogue choices have no impact on the story.

Display bugs appear and return even after restart. You have to go back outside the ship to make them disappear.
___________________________________________________________________________________
Sound : N/A
A little cum noise, but no moaning. Not useful and even borderline annoying.
___________________________________________________________________________________
Story: 5
GOOD,
because although the MC is dominated, the characters are nice to him and provide him with an enjoyable experience.
___________________________________________________________________________________
Content: 2
For a version 0.9, there are very few developments
5 "girls" 10 scenes is too few for an almost finished game. It really frustrated me, because I like the story and the characters.

Overall rating: 3
I really like the game, but I feel ripped off by the lack of content.
Now I have to wait months for important updates. it annoys me! I never start a game less than halfway through development because of this.

(0.9) Version
I had no issues figuring out where to go using the tablet at the top right, unlike some. I found this to be a lighthearted, if not a bit poorly scripted, yet fun and sexy game. There are sections that feel a bit disjointed. This is due to the multiple LI's you connect with.
Definitely worth the download. Keep it up Magic, I am a fan.

I really enjoyt he charecters in this game. Futanari games like this is super rare, espcialy with this level of artwork. I just wish the main char was Female, for my prefecnces XD but that is just my bias.

The game started off with an intersting enough story concept, and I was interested in seeing what it had to offer, especially in terms of male-on-futa and futa-on male content. Despite the interesting start, the concept of 'story' seems to elude the game as it quickly devolves into a non-stop rapefest.

Since the game features such scenes as the MC repeatedly saying 'no' and 'stop' only to be phisically forced into anal sex, you'd think that the rape tag would at least be present to warn player about what they're getting into with the game. And you'd be wrong to think that, as despite it being brought up several times in the thread, the rape tag is still not added to the game's tags.

Finally, despite the dev's assurance in the thread that some content is 'optional', it would seem that the only way to opt out of this content is to skip most of the game. If the game is meant to focus on futa (or any other) content, then the dev should avoid lying about it in the game's description and thread.

Overall, I found it a great game, easily top 3 if not top 1 for futanari games. Art is amazing, and the story is really good, super immersive. All it needs now is more quest and storylines for the two main futa(my favorites as well), although author is probably fonna focus on the two less seen ones.

It's a pretty decent game with some awkward humour mixed in with a porn plot. It has a fair amount of content so far that should keep you busy for a few hours. Overall a fun experience if you like futa x male.

I don't know if it's an idiosyncratic problem, but all I could experience from this game was hearing "access denied" at almost any door I tried to interact with, followed by super buggy interactions . Gave up after a couple minutes of not being able to figure out where I am allowed to go.

Please, just rework this into a non-sandbox game. Linear story of choices without object-interactions. Because hearing one more freaking access denied would drive a hole to my head.

the game is a bit silly but fun to play. the mc could be a little more eager to get it on with all the nice futa ladies, but since he gets fucked in the end anyway it doesnt matter too much after all the ruckus about the cut free version, dev obviously was willing to give in to popular demand, i very much appreciate that.

Promising concept, but poorly executed. Here's what I didn't like.

Bad writing,

-The mc goes from a, learning about the new situation he's in, straight character to fully understanding the new universe he's in and having an "I love cock now" attitude instantly.

-I understand that English probably isn't the developer's first language, but the conversations between the npc's can be downright bad at times and pulls you away from your enjoyment.

Forcing players to experience content.

-Futa on male (avoidable)
-Male on futa(avoidable)
-I realize this is something under planned tags but as of v0.7 the game forces you to have sex with futa characters and be feminized. From what I've seen so far it doesn't look like you will be given a choice anytime soon if at all.

-This is a heavy futa-dom game and is not advertised as such.

Poorly integrated map/travel system and other gameplay mechanics.
-Nothing else to add here it's just bad.

This game had a promising start. Nice girls, thicc dicks, few grind. Didnt took itself too serious.

With 0.7 it became a demo version. No dicks, only walking simulator gameplay without any futa content, so close to no content at all.

But if we really try to judge the game itself, we find it left with nothing remarkable at all. Running around on a spaceship and a spacestation, changing clothes, grind money with click puzzles. And there are no rewards besides the spooky tongue-lady.

Edit: With 0.8 I have to change my opinion. Dev put content back in. I hope he/she sticks with it. Gameplay still feels clumsy with that map. But damn, I love the futas! The cocks are too big and its ludicrous amounts of cum. But they look tasty af.

I want to like this game more than I actually do.

Pros:
+Solid renders: the girls look good, and have a nice body shape and texture
+Theming: the sci-fi theme holds strong throughout the narrative, with various aliens and futuristic themes
+Increased playability: the past few updates have definitely made the game more user-friendly, adding things like a "back to room" button and other QoL additions

Cons:
-Unfinished: Holy crap you will run into the "content under development" notice a lot during your playthrough
-Unfriendly player experience: despite the improved QoL fixes I listed above the game is still fundamentally player unfriendly. Why do I have to shower for no reason? What does it add to the narrative? Why so many clicks to check my quest progress? Why do I have to change clothes to do half of the tasks in the game? Why is money used for like 1-2 things in the entire game, but I still had to grind it to get them? Why does passing time to the next time slot offer 0 player feedback? etc. etc. etc.
-Repetitive: Every sex scene plays out similarly, with boring dialogue and lackluster animations
-Confusing: some quests can't be completed until others are, but won't give you that info until you actually go try and do the quest

Personal Preference:
~Very futa-dom heavy: if you like being forced to suck futa dick, this is the game for you
~Annoying MC: he sounds and acts like a bitch, probably leading up to his forced feminization, but suddenly in the most recent patch he can become alpha suddenly (for one scene?)
~So-so character design: You have chicks with dicks, cool. They take up more than half the roster, are always dominating and annoying, and their personality can be summed up in one word: "horny", nothing else seemingly going on upstairs.

Overall: I give this game a 2/5. It feels like the dev wanted to write a sissy, futa-dom VN, but waited until a few updates in before letting the audience know the theme of the game. What started out as a space drama with player choice about which girls to pursue turned into a 80%+ futa-dom fantasy. The navigation, dialogue, and story progression all feel lackluster, so I hope the dev will be able to turn it around.

Edit: As you have probably seen from the thread and/or patch notes, the Dev recently gutted the free content, moving everything futa to the paid version. I know Devs need money too, but removing things that are already in your game (and in this case almost all of the NSFW content) to throw behind a paywall paints the Dev and this game's future terribly. Down to 1 star.

So, I really wanted to give this 5 stars. I'll explain why and then I'll come back to tell you, why I can't give it a fifth star in its current state. (So pros and cons )

This games idea and setting are genuinely interesting. It creates a nice kind of mystery and intrigue around the main thing, that sets everything in motion. But on the other the game knows what it is and knows what people play it for. There's no pretends that this is GOTY level writing or anything. So while there is some really solid writing on this (like dialogue and worldbuilding), it still doesn't take itself to seriously and retains that charming porn logic camp. Like there's some genuinely good comedy in this.
The "action" is good. I'm a bit biased, since kinkwise this game is made for me. It's not exclusively Futa on Male, but this seems to be the main focus. There's also still a bit Male on Futa and also a girl with a very long tongue (which I thought was a neat little idea). The models are good, the futas look hot, no complaints here. So I'd say if you're into futa on male, this game is almost a must for you.

But also keep in mind, that there's very little content if you don't wanna see the MC with a cock and/or dildo in his mouth or ass. These scenes are avoidable/skipable, but if you do skip em, you'll have like 2-3 scenes left.
Also genrally this needs more content. This is an early build, yes, and it's a very common problem with porn games, yes, but still - it's a con.
The gameplay is pretty so-so. There are very few decisions, for which as far as I can tell, the wrong one just leads to a game over. That would be fine, if these game overs were fun or had some sexy content, but they don't. Also the navigation is kinda tedious.
Also it takes a little long for my taste to get to the first sexy scenes.
So these little nitpicks sadly make it impossible for me to give five stars. But I'll keep a close watch on this and when these things are fixed, I'll happily change the rating
So conclusion: It doesn't take much time and it's a fun little ride (quite literally sometimes) if it matches your kinks, give this a try!

3.5/5 - Rounding up to 4 stars purely because it does have potential and some surprisingly solid parts in there

Pros:
- Game with a large focus on futanari. If you got here by browsing the futa tag then you won't be disappointed, unlike 99% of the other games that contain the tag.
- World building. It's got a surprisingly decent-ish world to get lost in.
- The scenes that were there were hot enough although a few of them have these odd unskippable moments.
- The map and the environments? Surprisingly high quality. Was impressed.

Cons:
- Game with large focus on futanari. Not a con for me but since the "futanari" tag is very ambiguous when it comes to the amount of futa content in the tagged game, some people might be shocked here. Although if you had looked at the banner image you should've really known already.
- The scripts/grammar could be improved. At the moment it's a bit crude and abrupt in the way characters speak which can be jarring.
- For a game with a large focus on pro-futanari content the start of the game is ver confusing. MILD-SPOILER: The MC is noticeably afraid of women with dicks at the start of the game and only after experiencing a few oddly rape-y scene (no full rape) did he come around to them. It was an odd tone to experience for a game like this.
