VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Stellar Incognita [v1.0.0] [Slamjax Games]

  1. 1.00 star(s)

    A dozen short, badly written mind-control sci-fi plots crammed into a single Ren'Py porno.

    Overly verbose, while simultaneously skimming over most of the interesting bits. Feels like reading a rushed summary of an actual sci-fi story; lots of proper nouns are thrown at you, presumably in an attempt to make the world feel more "real", but in such a short game that kind of worldbuilding is entirely misplaced.

    Gameplay is non-existent. You get literally about 5 choices in an entire playthrough, which produce wildly different outcomes with no real way of predicting what you'll get. Most of the endings feature some variation of mind-control sex, but the writing is so sterile and rushed and skips over all the build up. Just, bam, here's a female character you've known for all of 60 seconds, she's naked now, here's 5 different poses of her naked 3d model, all completely lacking in sexiness, congratulations you've beaten the game.

    The weird art style is weird, but honestly that's the least of the game's issues.

    Overall, this game has you sit through a dozen rushed, half-baked sci-fi novelettes, in exchange for equally rushed, half-baked "reward" scenes. Pass.

    Love the multitude of routes and the very consequential choices as a result.

    However, the actual content of the story is extremely poor. Terrible characters, tell not show writing, C-tier sci-fi plots. Very dull, very little tension. It's crazy how in a story with so many dead ends they can still manage to sap all the tension out of it simply by having such a poorly paced and told narrative.

    And finally the graphics are horrible, the filter is an awful choice that probably made this game like 20x less popular than it could've been.

    Still +1 star for having a large quantity of endings though, that's rare to see.

    Played it for like 3-4 hours or so, got like 3 - 4 different endings.
    Games is quite interesting I have to say.
    It's like a choose your own adventure story book for kids, but this time for adult and you can do the most fucked up shit ever.
    Game is very nice to play, but if the art are really hit or miss sometimes.
    If the art was good, I would've enjoyed it a lot more.
    Would give it a 3.6, but can't do decimals, so 4 it is for this 1.

    Steaming hot sex. Unique build. Haven't seen anything like this. A hundred ways to win a woman over, with or without force. Initially, I was a little put off by the art and the inevitable bushes, but the game has grown on me. I will be following this closely.

    My honest rating would actually be a 3.5, but since F95 doesn't allow that, I can either round up or down. I decided to round up because the positives generally outweigh the negatives.

    On the positive side, this hits my mind control fetish and choices are frequent and matter a great deal as to the way the story goes. My favorite aspect of visual novels is making choices to affect a story and I always try to make it clear to devs that I don't need sandboxes and minigames. This gives me what I want from a visual novel. There are a lot of different routes you can go down. Some end abruptly, but some are really well fleshed out.

    On the negative end, the art is unappealing at best and ugly at worst. I have yet to experience a game that perfectly combines my mind control fetish, good art, and a good story. Usually one of the three is always missing. In this case, it's the art. Several of the girls are just straight up ugly.

    On the whole, a pretty good story, even if not perfect. Worth it if you're a fan of games with mind control like me, or if you're not like me and you enjoy the more eccentric art styles that sometimes pop up in VNs. If you don't go for either of those things though, I can't imagine it'd be worth it to play.

    Story 9/10 some branches have 10/10
    Story some 9/10 and some 8/10 so
    It depends on branch you are in

    Art 10/10 fits the theme and it's great
    to me

    Kinks 10/10 mind control and male domination,my favorite

    Content 10/10 has alot of content and
    Updated constantly

    Replayability 100/10 has a lot of paths
    and endings and 100 endings planned....

    I have faith dev will complete the game
    Soon ,cheers to a completed game

    Honestly? An incredibly mediocre experience. 4/10 at best.

    I'm unsure what the artistic reason for putting the weird sharpness effect over every photo, but I can say it certainly qualifies as unique. All I'll say is there's undoubtedly a reason other people don't use it. I assume it's to hide the fact the quality of the renders or models is worse than anticipated, but I have no clue.

    I'm sure the story itself could've been interesting, but it isn't. Every pathway is both absurdly cartoonish and intensely dull. Because there's no way to be invested, every time you get lore dumped is a drag. Since the characters are so unrealistic, you pay no attention when they decide to string along these "oh, will he win? won't he?" storylines. Another point is that since the choices are almost entirely completely irrelevant to what actually happens in a pathway, the choices do not matter at all. They are entirely to assign an arbitrary path to the game rather than a REAL choice on what you want to see. You aren't choosing what you want the character would do, you're choosing the path to see whatever random content pops up.

    This game is something else. Choices matter and its extremly fast paced. Not the best renders but i find them stylish. Porn is worst part (unless you are really into mind control) - i played it purely for plot
    As of 0.7 it has almost 100 endigs - check it out!

    I've played this game at version 0.6.0 and here is my opinion about it so far.

    Plot: 5/5 You play as an anti-hero, with multiple, relatively logical endings, fucking the woman of the man that screwed your face in multiple scenarios, all the while reinforcing the fact that you have to be an absolute bastard to survive. What more can you ask for?

    Art: 5/5 It may not be everyone's cup of tea but it certainly is mine! There are no animations, but the premise more than makes up for the lack of frills that many have come to expect from an adult VN.

    Overall a very simple game executed marvellously and should be given a try if you are a connoisseur of the "infamous" fetishes.

    I really like the different paths / side stories. One of the better games on this platforms. Developer(s) have a huge imagination to come up with a game like this. Looking forward to how this game will develop in the future, but so far, one of my favourites.

    Pros:
    -Lots of choices
    -The choices actually lead to widely different outcomes
    -Decent writing
    -High amount of mind control fetishes (drones, parasites, brainwashing, etc.)

    Neutrals:
    -text to choice ratio can be rather high (meaning lots of reading before the game lets you make a new choice)

    Cons:
    -The models used for the women mostly look generic and lack variety (same height, bust size, skin color, etc.)
    -Low quality shading / lighting setup makes everything look very flat and contributes to the bland / generic look
    -Uses a weird blur filter. While that helps to make the scene composition appear more coherent it simultaneously greatly reduces texture details which again cheapens the overall impression.
    -A personal pet peeve of mine is that all of the (admittedly many) choices lead to widely different scenarios (which *is* good) but none let you actually "play" the outcome. Just when you think "now things are getting interesting!" the game abruptly ends ("Congratulations! You reached ending 1238432") and sends you back to the title screen.

    I am very excited to see how this incredibly expansive story develops. This is an ambitious project and I can't wait for more.

    Talk about replayability. The mind control aspects work very well with the sci-fi timeline.

    One of the few great games ! Keep it like that, it's truly enjoyable to play it ;) All is nice, the story, the art, the idea, the perspectives for future content, it's nice to find this kind of pearls around here ^^

    Great game (y) This is sci-fi adult game done right. Unique world-setting and good detailed writing —— which actually serves sex scenes!
    Models are good, captured the good girl gone bad vibe.
    The render resembles old tv series which gives a surreal and sinister atmosphere. The characters having their own solid backgrounds.
    Different endings, very branched-out.
    The creator knows what he's doing, wonderful.

    Re-re-rated: Finally added a scene replay, solid 4! If you check out the preview pics and are cool with that style (was definitely fappable to me), give it a try.
    Re-rated: Dropping to 3 stars, a solid game with some good fets and a unique visual style choice but it so badly needs a gallery or something QoL improvement related, the amount of saves you need to see various content or not lock yourself out is extremely high.
    Original: Going with 4 stars for now, kind of 3.5 but I'll round that up since it's early in development and will hopefully get better and there's definitely some fun stuff going on in the plot so far.
    The story, concept, fets, those are all good. Give it a try for those and I won't say more since you can play it yourself. Right now if you're debating trying it it's a yes and the rest of this is TLDR.
    Issue wise though, two things stood out.
    One, the renders just aren't quality enough relative to what else is out there now to give full points for. While that might be a bit of a stylistic choice and they are not bad, it still is what it is and they're not great either.
    Two, choice can be good but past a point it can have diminishing returns. When a game tries to branch as much as this one seems like it's going to, especially without a good gallery system or something, you can end up forcing a lot of replay on the player to see everything. You're almost turning a narrative game into a sandbox one. The replay value needs to be high to pull that off, not sure this game is aimed that way. It's going to need some streamlining of the plot and scenes down the road or it's going to be one of those games that makes you save at 407 different choice spots to see everything and that's tedium not gameplay.

    Chimp :D

    Only downside is the graphics, even those aren't horrifically bad the gmae has several branching paths and already feels properly fleshed out for a first release, stick with this one itll be an interesting ride!

    Very early stage, but what is there has the makings of an excellent story with themes heavily focused on corruption/mind control (method = technology & drugs).

    Significant number of placeholder branching paths, about 30-minutes of story exposition so far.

    What's there is well-done. Looking forward to seeing how this develops.
