Ren'Py - The Golden Boy [v0.7] [Serious Punch]

Renders are awesome (me love busty big ass mil dolls). The story is almost non existent (not that I mind much if the game had more Lewd moments) but thats the problem it have too mucho build up. Also I understand that people want to take control by having decitions that matters, but this decitions really doesnt matters much instead just blocks events with characters but afterwards they talk about the evenets as it had happend.


Still my biggest grippe is the smaller updates with longer waiting time....

0.7 Version

There is no doubt that the author is great with visuals, but as many here, keeps on introducing new actor not really developing the existing ones and starts to drag the story to ungodly proportions for who knows what reason. There is good teasing and buildup, but this game just doesn't have it. I give it a 3/5 solely on my preference of the model types, otherwise it would fall down to 1. Choices are very irrelevant, pacing is all over the place. Some characters are developed, some dropped in and completely forgotten. I really want this game to get good, but so far my hope has only diminished. (I wonder if authors check these
)

Game version: 0.3

Synopsis: The game is bad, but the renders and scenes are good.

The story is another of these "13-year-old-looking-guy-with-an-oversized-dick"-scenarios; there are indeed (too) many of them here.

What sets this game a bit apart of the rest is the rather unique character design. Every single women still looks like a doll (maybe that's the fetish here?), but the overall quality is above average and enjoyable for me.
The story is a boring mess of skippable text, interrupted by short free roaming sequences (which only require you to find the next trigger aka person to talk to).

All in all I have the feeling that the quality of the plot/ story is deteriorating from update to update, leaving me only interested in the lewd stuff.

Can't even recommend it for a quick fap at the moment, tbh.
I was about to give a 2 stars, but the aforementioned lewd scenes are quite good, so +1. If there were just more than just the very few lewd scenes after that already long development...

It's update's are clearly sub par and are getting worse by the update. And because of that the whole game suffers.

What ever there was of a story is going no where and because these updates are so small and there is a pretty long time between updates all you get is a few sex scenes it's just boring and uninspired.

I like the renders though but that's not enough for a 3 star rating as everything else is sub par.

Hmmm. 3 stars feels right. I think in some respects it's too kind but I don't think the game is bad enough to be a two. I don't think the game is good though or good often enough to be a 4 star game.

The MC is the first thing. My god I wish devs would get off these 12 year old boy looking MCs. It's not remotely believable that some amazon bodied woman would notice a 100 pound Frodo stand-in. It must be some self-esteem issue or something. Bump up the MCs look to a young man on the cusp of being a grownup and the whole thing makes more sense. They are at that age where they notice women in a new light and the rest writes itself. What is Frodo thinking about? Nothing or nothing believable anyway.

The Mc also is very inconsistent. When Eva wants to massage him without panties and he gets a hard on he freaks out and ends up running away for the second time in the same night. Meanwhile later he is pretending to be older on a dating site to entice the friend down the hall. He even sends her a cock pick lol. Make up your mind dev. It doesn't fit his ridiculous image anyway. Imagine Chucky sending dirty texts to some woman and you'll get it.

Other than that I think the game is ok. I think the dev could fill out some parts of the story better though. The mom kicking the MC out was abrupt. Was she worried about being alone with the MC after disarming his torpedo? BTW the kid might be a shrimp but he has a dick that is almost as long as his leg... Was she just angry? No idea. It feels kinda shitty really because she is literally sending him away for some length of time without any explanation. Showing the characters in a bad light is not good storytelling if there is no reason to explain it.

Anyway, it's a not bad/not good game to play if you're waiting on some other game.

Lots of erotica and enjoying the boob physics and beautiful all around T & A seems like good amount of content with second play of the other route and look like maybe some new scenes. Very erotic expressions, which is becoming important in a lot of these things - the MC mighty lance could be toned down but quite enjoyable and fapable.

First things first, remove the sandbox tag this isnt a sandbox game.

Now that this is out of the way, we have a game where you are playing as a "retarded Ta'veren", which means that the MC somehow bends the gravitational forces of fate, dragging himself to every single bimbo bitch in this game forced inside peculiar and bizzare story lines that make no sense other than getting his dick wet. The story is extremely bad, there is no actual quality check of the writing, no character feels real, in this fictial world that is. You could replace all the dialogues with just the MC slipping on a banana peel and queing the H-scene right after. The H-scenes themselves are your generic 3DCG 2-3 seconds tops on repeat scene of 2 barbie dolls slaming on each other with only 1 maybe 2 at best angles.

The biggest shock of all was the zombie-woman who had stage 3 leukemia asking the MC to fix her sink and other menial tasks, that shit was scary, likely the developer understood that and provided us with a skip button, either way the zombie-woman eventual gets a bit of sun-tan and we can somewhat forget of her ongoing fight with cancer.

Honestly I dont understand how people give this game more than 1 star, it extremely poor writing and the scenes arent all that worth to get, much less because the story isnt that inviting. The length as of 0.6.2 is 2-3 hours tops.

It's a solid game, the story is simple that I think that is actually a positive aspect. Too many games try to have overcomplicated stories and end up forgetting about the real reason why people play these types of games, which is the sexual content.
Both the renders and animations are really good and the women are very hot.

Another VN where the women have oversized boobs and butts which make them look like caricatures and unrealistic. The women are a dime a dozen. The Dev should know that a Milf doesn't have to be middle aged with beach ball boobs, the only requirement is that they are someone's mother. Age and physique doesn't play into it.

The MC is supposed to be 20 - yeah, right. He looks maybe 13 at best. Trying to pass him off as 20 is insulting. The dev either needs to make him look 20 or skip claiming he is and leave the age a mystery.

The sex scenes aren't very sexy due in large part to the unrealistic proportions of the models. The scenes also are very contrived rather than natural feeling.

The writing is iffy but visually it just looks like a bad cliche. It seems like a 13 year old's wet dream and that also appears to be the target audience rather than adults.

All in all this comes off as an unintentional juvenistic parody of a VN. I won't be revisiting this one again.

man I love milfs, and with this game i'm served, gorgeous renders and models, good animations i'm not a fan of oversize dick on the mc but I can pass on that, I hope we will get more and more update because this game is very good and got huge potential

I love the game. I hope it does not get abandoned like the other good ones and also has more updates. beautiful character, great rendering techniques, nice design, good story and in general everything is good. Keep it up.

The drama of trying to fuck your mom.

Family issues is the name of the game, so be prepared for drama, tears, and hot ladies.

The biggest issue I had with the game is it, in the current state, is a bit of a buggy mess. You'll constantly run into Renpy bug screens, the game might try to restart on you, so my fapping fun at the times things got sexy was often interrupted. Damn shame. Especially since the gallery is the worst buggy mess of the bunch.

Because the women are pretty hot, the models were nice to look at and fuck with, and of course I was lured by the promise of sleep sex. Not much to that sadly, just the usual sleep molestation and jerking off on some too. You do eventually get to fuck a couple of the ladies, but the mom is still off the table as of now.

Needs some major bug patching to be really fun, which would bring it up to a "good" but in its current state; "average".

Epic! Simply epic. Hot models, I love big bewbs, cool MC, fun story that knows how to get spicy. Hot scenes. It is genius. Top game on this site, at least for me. Right up my alley.
Keep up the good work, Dev!

Since I discovered the forum last year, I have installed and played an average of 20 Ren'Py games and this game in my humble opinion is the best.
Positive Points: MILF + GILF (involvement with the mother I've seen a lot, but involvement with the grandmother is the first time I've seen it).
Negative Points: Characters and sex scenes from version 0.3 are not present in version 0.6.0.
Congratulations to developer Serious Punch for bringing us this masterpiece. It certainly deserves our support on Patreon so that it continues to develop new chapters of this story.

This game is great. It has a lot of fetishes that hit the spot. I was glad to see a GILF in the story which is something you don't see a lot. The story is ok...

4 stars all the way. Look forward to more.

Dude, Love the GILF and MLF in this game, please add more interaction with the grandma, this is by far the best model i've seen latelly.
Add anal and more scenes, gonna add this to my favorite list this is looking great and play great!!

Looking forward to the next updates.

The simplistic writing is devoid of any real character or humor.
The plot barely exists and has been done better in a great many other games.

The only thing it really has going for it is an abundance of busty broads, but if for some reason that ain't your thing you'll find yourself disappointed in the lack of variety.

It's not quite bottom of the barrel but I can't really recommend it unless you've somehow exhausted all other options and are JONESING to play SOMETHING.

Some of the best renders I have ever seen in a Ren'Py game, the animations are smooth and realistic and the story is interesting enough that you don't feel you have to speed-click through everything.

5 star game, can't wait to see what SP does next.

Story
It's pretty "slice-of-life" and for me, I love that. It doesn't go crazy with introducing 30 characters and it's grounded enough in reality that it's believable and you can relate to the MC.

Renders
As I said above, these are phenomenal. Right up my street with the things I love in terms of the quality and the character designs. Great lighting, camera angles, it feels professional.

Content
As with most games that are still in production, it's not hours of gameplay. However, considering the update schedule, I think this is far better in terms of content than we normally see with solo-dev games.

Review at the time for v0.5.0

Pretty good game. I'd say there's roughly 4 to 5 hours of content available.

I am not a fan of sandbox so while it's true this game shouldn't be sandbox considering how linear the story is, I'd like to dispell some of the rage directed towards Golden Boy from those comments. There are literally only a handful of instances where you have to select where the character goes and it takes all of 10 seconds to figure out where to go and be there. It's a complete non-factor so if you're not a fan of sandbox don't worry, it's barely a part of the game. You probably spent more time reading this paragraph than you are going to be navigating where to go in this game.

I think that the renders are really good for most part. All the girls are pretty, at worst the Grandma starts off a little too pale but that actually gets addressed quickly and her skin is given a bit more color.

The only warning I guess I'd give is if you're looking for a story rich game, this is not it. The story is very simple and shallow.

For the people who want to just dive into constant sexual tension with big titties and fat asses and a couple pretty ass faces, this is a game for you.

I really liked this game from the start because of how straightforward it was. so much so, i was already readying myself to make a five star review here since a game that seemingly gives so much freedom to the player is quite rare in F95. of course, it seems that it was too good to be true indeed

what i meant by "how straightforward this game is", is that it directly allows the player to choose what kind of relationship they want with the girls. it straight up just asks you if you want Love points and Lust points and that's a pro. i personally don't think it has to be that easy but if i can smoothly go through the path i want, i won't be one to argue with the good thing

but i should have known that it was just a coincidence how this was matching what i wanted perfectly; after all, i always go for the Mom in those games, which is the first one to be introduced here(and the one with least H-Scenes LMAO). naturally, i'd see the game for what it really is when it'd come to what's in it besides the girl I want, which is, just like in 90% of F95 poorly-designed games, girls you're forced to have a relationship with. this is absurd considering that there in fact several moments where the game does allow you to refuse a girl or get away from her, but for some reason this is also inconsistent. even if you're not interested in one specific girl, the game still forces your character to have a relationship with her, no matter what "choices" you chose. ironically enough for someone who had the only girl i was interested in as the first introduced in focused, she was the one neglected the most, which means i was forced to spend my entire time in this game in characters i didn't care about while the one I did was pushed away. that's quite frustrating

the game is pretty beautiful visually and the characters's writing is just fine, i believe it will improve drastically if they simply give the players more freedom with real choices and then i'll most certainly give my 5-star score
