Ren'Py - Completed - SuperPowered [v0.45.02] [Night City Productions]

Version Played: 0.44.04

I really, really wanted to like this game as it hits a lot of my boxes in terms of content and I've put in 10 or so hours, but the arcane and frustrating grindy systems and still-image sex scenes lead me to feel like I was putting in a lot of work for not a lot of payoff. To its credit, the theme of the game (becoming a superhero) is unique and there are a ton of girls, so this might appeal to the player who likes to work a little harder for his wank.

Positives:
+ Tons of girls
+ Some depraved content that can get you going (group content FTW)
+ Unique Concept


Negatives:
- Systems are extremely obtuse and the game ends up very grindy
- Scenes have no animation or even much descriptive text

The beauty of a site like this is that the only thing you are investing is your time (gonna ignore the obvious sentiment that we don't get time back so why are we on F95...), so by all means, check this out if any of this seems like it would appeal to you. I ended up putting in another 5 or so hours in it with mods, but even that wasn't enough to keep me from getting frustrated and deciding to drop it.

Note to Devs!: Sorry it didn't end up being my cup of tea. Thanks for all the work you've put into the game.

Too much grinding, so that the fingers are tired. It's not so much a porn game, it's a finger exerciser. The main story line is actually very short, that is, it takes a long time to grind. Thanks to the appearance of the mod, otherwise I would not have the energy to play this game. Developers spend their energy on torturing players. It took me almost 10 hours to unlock all the superpowers. If you don’t use mods, I’m afraid it won’t be done in a week, because just earning various currencies is a torture. Not to mention, it will take a lot of time to unlock the gallery and sex scenes at the end, because this is the final loot that you get by grinding, but there is no hint to unlock them, you can only look at the revealed part of the picture and try to guess. Which kind of super power is still grinding, it is better to change the name of the game to Super Grinder.

Please I beg you don't feel daunted by the sheer amount of systems in this game they each all work extremely well together. This game is unique, there is no game with this much variability in your play style. Theres like 3+ outfits for each character depending on their inhibition, each character has their own fetish with secret scenes, not even including stuff like nympho obsessive and jealous. 10/10 MASTAPIECE

I had a few bugs and rollback errors here and there especially when trying some of the social interactions with the girls (different depending on the girl) but overall a great experience as a power fantasy. I love how this game tackles the brainwashing concept and doesn't shy away from the more dominating aspects of it like a lot of other games where the mind control is basically just a slut-maker (although you have the freedom to do that here as well) Can't wait for the full release with all the powers and girls available!

This game has an obvious case of overengineering, for the RPG and stats in particular.

The concept of the game itself is very promising; you are a simple young man who can gain super-hero powers in a infinite quantity. That make for a game that can have a lot of freedom and content, on paper.

In practicality, this game is such a overly complex and confusing mess of stats that you have to keep track of, maintain and grind through.

Graphically, the game is outdated. It's obviously never got upgraded ever since it's introduction in 2016, so you get a 4:3 screen ratio combined with grainy images, poor light composition and basic shots. Visually, it's really painful to the eyes.

Writing wise, the game is actually quite good at that. Dialogues are good, the story itself make sense and is quite grounded. You have a funny, quirky dialogue for the tutorials and tips. It's really the best part of the game as far as it goes, because everything else is just bad or underwhelming.

You have a very wide selection of characters, although interactions with them are often complicated and obscure, so you have to do a LOT of trial and errors to see what is effective and what is not.

The lewds scenes are quite bad. No animations at all anywhere, and you get the same bad shots and grainy renders as everything else. Most of them consist of a few different pictures with different poses, and that's about it. Not really exciting or enjoyable in any way.

Look, it's quite simple. The game is grindy, overly complex, not pretty to look at and fail to deliver a fun experience overall. If you're into long, stat-whore type games, maybe you can like it, but otherwise stay away.

No sex with animated scenes, the mc penis is weird as fuck, stats are good in theory but were poorly implemented with unecessary difficulty.
I'll make it simple for you, the history is good in theory but the game is just bad and boring.

Better writing than most games, yeah, a lot of grinding but the scenes are worth it, the character aren't cringe-y, and there is a lot to find. If you need to get into the game, just get Radioactive or some other mod to let you get around the grinding.

To put it bluntly I was bored playing this game. Maybe it picks up the pace later but start was so unimaginably uninteresting that I will not know for sure. I added one star because idea is interesting.

This game is best played with mods. It's a fun concept, and I like the system, but the interactions with the other characters are very vague, and could use some flushing out. The mods make it good though, without them I don't enjoy it to much.

good enough that the porn is a plus and not the entirety of the game!

love the mechanics and along side 2 other games in this forum this is one of those that is full of potential!

normally i am not much into incest and NTR and cheating but until now its been so well done that only idiots could complain about it!

not that there is a shortage of those around!

Basically you get so enthralled learning the mechanics and how to optimize your gameplay that you end up forgetting those things! furthermore you got choices so NTR Incest and Cheating is only present if you choose to act like that and not doing that route does not impact you negatively!

i am evaluating it during the Alpha v0.43 test phase and things can go downhill but until now the concept and implemented mechanics are truly gamer quality and therefore it gets a 5 star which is the ponctuation i give to unfinished games that do not require porn to be good enough! this is one such as those!

Terrible game the story does not make sences. Aged graphics, broken and overly complicated core machanics. How can you play a game like this... I dont know why others think it a better game and rateing good, There isn't much story here or anything else other than grinding to unlock sex scenes. Poorly designed, badly aged, two frames of action - sex scenes. A great example of how not to make a game.

My personal fav Renpy game. A ton of content and LOTS of options on how to play. It's an actual game, not just a VN.

From what I've heard on the Discord channel, it seems that this game is still nowhere close to being done (as of 0.43). With a ton of content coming over the next few years, this is something worth following closely.

Pros: Decent combat system, very sexy renders, very sexy H-scenes, good replay value, good setting, snappy writing.

Cons: You need the wiki to avoid getting stuck a lot, medium-high amount of grinding

I like this game a lot. The worldbuilding is pretty good and generally plausible (once you accept the central premise of a "superpower shot" existing). the dialogue is good, the girls are sexy.

The developer is a bit of a hardass though and doesn't mind making you work for things. If you don't keep an eye on the wiki while you play you will probably get stuck a lot.

highly replayable and great progression system. I always come back and play the whole game from scratch per release just to enjoy the slow grind back to the top. Updates always give me some kind of new content to work for.

The worst game. Terrible UI, aged graphics, broken and overly complicated core machanics. If you don't use a walkthrough you won't understand what's going on and how to "play" it. And by "play" i mean work. There isn't much story here or anything else other than grinding to unlock sex scenes. Poorly designed, badly aged, two frames of action - sex scenes. A great example of how not to make a game.

The game system is so unfamiliar and difficult.
It's unnecessarily complicated.
For example, if you want to impress someone, you can praise her or help her.
But the process is unnecessarily complicated in this game.
Nevertheless, there are no additional scenes.
And the most annoying thing is that there are too many Stats. It's useless.
The idea of the game looks good.
But the way it is expressed is too complicated.
Perhaps the developer tried to express too much.
Probably, those who like this game will love it.
But those who hate it will really hate it.

[Review based on 0.43.00]

The ambition of this game has eclipsed it. Close to 4 1/2 years old and with a regular release schedule we see how the too ambitious game design has ruined this game. There are core mechanics of this game still not added let alone balanced and tested. The grinding mechanics added 4 1/2 years ago to help mitigate the lack of content hurt the game today as there is a ton of content but a ton of grind.

There are too many characters, too many mechanics yet to be added and too many half baked poorly balanced mechanics already in the game. Because this game is so old the scene has passed it by. In 2016 these renders were okay but not brilliant, now they are well below average on the site. In 2016 the lack of animations was hardly an issue now in 2021 where so many games have decent to great animation the lack is hurting the game.

This game is far from complete and the "story" elements have hardly progressed because the dev is still adding in scenes, mechanics and story elements for characters in the first release while adding in new characters. Because this game has been in development for so long without keeping up with technology be it hardware, software and just innovations from other devs on the site the game shows its age.

If there was 1/2 as many characters and 1/2 as many powers the game would be near completion if not have been completed. As it stands now the game is likely 2 years if not longer from completion and it is aging badly.

Its not a bad game per say it is just old and grindy as fuck. with now mediocre renders compared to the current releases of today. The dev has worked hard and steady but poor design choices in 2016 have come back to haunt the game in 2021. This would have been great for 2016/2017 but in 2021 it is really starting to show its age.

Pros: Fun, Decent story, and good art.

Cons: Grindy

Overall:
Game is fairly fun to play, however, it can be very grindy at times. It's honestly got a lot of potential and I can understand the need for grind as honestly sometimes grind makes a game fun, but this has a tad bit too much for my taste personally. Other than that the game is phenomenal for what it is and I've sent a fair bit of time plying this after "fast-forwarding" a little bit of the grind.

Pretty good but not 5 stars as it lacks audio and has some unclear objectives that have bugs. Other than that the game is pretty good sandbox sort of game with various different combinations. This makes it slightly more tricky to unlock all the features. Wish the game also had a sort of a scene replayer feature.

Great game. Little weird, strange looking MC, but still fun. Love having super powers. Love fucking high school girls with my massive dong and turning them into sex slaves. Also love turning the uptight principal into a cum dumpster whore who takes any dick that passes by. Lots of fun.
