Very promising game! A good sci-fi story gets me hooked instantly. Great story, sexy and original characters and nice scenes, but i do feel that the MC is useless in most of the action scenes. It would've been nice to have him at least at the same badass level as the rest of the crew even tho he's only a diplomat. That's prolly the only negative point I can think of. Other than that, it is definitely worth a try if you're into such game.

Keep up the good work and will be looking forward to many more chapters!
Thank you! I actually still have quite a few plot twists planned that may change this

Nice! Good to know that :). Nothing better than a unexpected plot twist. Maybe some foot fetish in those plot twists too :D
It's funny you mention that, because I have NO attraction to feet whatsoever, and therefore find it hard to appreciate foot fetish scenes. That being said, I understand it's rather relevant in the community and am always actively thinking about how to present it. Often I find myself trying to ensure that the feet of a character are showing in the render. I do have plans to bring specific feet scenes/animations to the game so the feet lovers can have their moment too.

Haha fair enough, but the good thing about it is that it is the harmless kind of fetish I guess.

"Often I find myself trying to ensure that the feet of a character are showing in the render" I noticed that, you did a great job on the designs too, specially at the end of chapter III when a certain character appeared tied up. (spoiler free hopefully)

And the feet lovers would pretty much appreciate that :LOL:

Played from the scratch and was really very pleasant. The story is well developed with a good peace, isn't rushed at all. I'm sure the characters will be deeper as the updates go by, the cliffhanger already gives us a hint of that.

Certainly call the plot corny isn't fair, the story may like you or not and yes, perhaps some people doesn't realize yet, but it's an adult game and some twists of the story are needed to go to porn, don't feel as an excuse.

The renders and animations are very good too.

I've great hopes in this project, believe there will come a lot of good times.

Thanks for the feedback! There is only so much I can say about a "negative" review without looking like a bad loser, so these kinds of answers help me a lot.

I find amusing, though, that people would take modesty into account in a game taking place more than 1000 years from now, without realizing modesty is a completely socially constructed human exclusive concept, mostly derived from christian religion. People would really think that a millennium in the future, after countless cultural exchange with alien races, humanity would retain its concept of modesty from 2019? That would be the most unrealistic aspect of the game.

Whoa.... Dev.... have you been taking a recent university sociology course taught by 'modernists'? I only disagree with the "completely socially constructed" phrase because it is false. Humans started wearing clothes over 72,000 years ago (wiki on Nudity) for protection against abrasion and the climate. That is not 'social' that is 'out of necessity' wouldn't you agree? Also, many societies in the warmer climates prefer nudity both in ancient and 'recent' times (Greece, Japan, and modern tribes) so again, not all societies are "modest" I just wanted to point that out as there are many misconceptions being promoted in University Social Studies today (like sex is a "socially constructed" variable--gag).

On the flip side, a 1,000 years in the future, given that artificial environments may have long eliminated the need for clothes from protection and comfort requirements, (and rubbing up against many alien races) may reduce clothing to a minimum sounds logical. However, I'd only vote for total/almost total nudity if the women are as beautiful as those you draw and we don't have to look at all the ugly bodies that are really in humanity. (wear your X-Ray glasses and go to Walmart and you get what I mean.... UGH!)

Thanks for a great game. keep up the good work. (but look out for University Professors...many of them are crazy these days)

I think you misunderstood me, and I will take the opportunity to correct myself: many religions impose some degree of modesty, not only christian ones.

But back to the topic at hand, you mistake the advent of clothing for the concept of modesty. People competed in the original greek olympics completely naked. Did the greeks not wear clothes at all? They certainly did, but their UNDERSTANDING of the function of clothes (as you pointed out) as protection against the environment and not some form of hiding their sinful parts made it natural for them to practice activities where you needed high mobility without the hindrance of clothing.

is there a walkthrough of this game ?? i don't want to make a wrong choice's in the game .
Hrmmm.... I don't think I've seen one. I've just been saving at what appear to be key branching points (whom you visit when you only have time to visit one character, etc.) so I can try another path later. My guess is someone will make one at some point, but I've not seen one yet.

Wow thats really a good one. I was a bit hesitant at first because i saw some really sad games with scifi setting but the story so far is entertaining, the characters are freakish enough which makes them more than just eye candy.

Keep up the good work v1si0n4ry

Hello, everyone!

So, as chapter III is pretty much settled down, I bring you some news:
First, the bonus version of chapter III is almost finished, with some renders still to go and I plan to release it this month.
Second, as I've reached mid-term exams, development is progressing at a slower pace, but still going. I hope to pump it up again after May 20th.
I hope you guys are enjoying this ride, and thanks again for all the support.

Cheers,
v1si0n4ry

Developer update - Stargazers (#15)


Hello, everyone!

Development of chapter IV is ongoing, and unfortunately, images like the one you see here take very long times to render. But rest assured chapter IV will be released, I hope within July.
Now, I know I take long times to release new episodes, so I am looking into a new way of charging you guys in a more fair manner. I will announce it as soon as I come to a final decision. Stay tuned.

Cheers,
v1si0n4ry

Shame to see that something like this only has 10 patrons compared to some other projects out there. I'm a sucker for sci-fi stories that aren't dumb as rocks
Good sci-fi stories and Post-Apocalyptic stories get me every time

Unfortunately, I don't have as much time as I wanted to work on the game, and it ends up taking a long time between updates, so I end up losing a lot of patrons because of long waiting times... I hope the new pledge system will make this a little better.
