VN - Ren'Py - The King of Summer [v0.5.7-full] [No Try Studios]

Been awhile since I gave a review so Ill just cut straight to the chase.

Dev updates the game FREQUENTLY as of writing this review. When it first released, I liked what I saw but I was skeptical as so many games start off looking great and end up abandoned. Or they end up being a milkfest. As time progressed, I jumped back in. While the sandbox element was annoying since I HATE sandbox, there was absolutlely no grind and tons of build up with actual pay off. No blueballs.

The NTR is the best kind of NTR. Sneaky sex between an Ugly Bastard hung like a horse and his nephews Busty sex queen. Game has some of the best scenes on this site and it joined a short list of games I end up paying for. The main LI Mary steals the show altogether.

PROS
Dialogue
No Grind
Big Tits
Smooth Animations
Looong Sex Scenes
No Rape or anything like that, the LI consensually falls for the Ugly Bastard
Sticks to the Plot and setting
The MC suspects things but never truly finds out
Cream Pie
Multiple Characters
Loads of content
Dev is very responsive

CONS
Some bugs here or there but nothing game breaking
Early scenes animation are not as good as the later scenes but Dev will more than likely fix this

5 out of 5

Great first attempt. Simple storyline, barebones selection and lovely cast.

What makes this shine is that No Try have managed to really make sure all the basics is as high quality as possible. Animations is fantastic as well.

This feels like a very polished adult game.

[Rev @ The King of Summer [v0.2.4 public]

Art's fine, it's one'a the render suites with appealing slider settings.

Writing is weird. Scenario's been done but the narrative in this iteration blurs the lines of who has what role and what response would make sense for a given character. It's blurred in less in an innovation way and more in a 'my paint by numbers got left out in the rain' way.

Porn is uninpsired.

Gameplay is as off as the writing. Faux sandbox presentation over a near-enough linear progression. Instead of knocking about discovering kinky misbehavior the player is just trawling for whatever spot increments the gate variable so the next Stuff can happen. The viewpoint switching seems pointless as well: NTR games usually do this for different views of the same events, but the protag / antag are rarely in the same scene and when they are it's morkish and unbelievable.

TLDR: A bit too much in some places, a bit not enough in others.

For version 0.2.4

Hate to be the metaphorical fly in the ointment between all these honey filled reviews, but this game is an absolute narrative mess.


Overall I wish I could give it 2.5 stars but I will give it the benefit of the doubt and round it up to 3. The game is still young, maybe it will improve. It really has the markings of a very good game, once it decides what it wants to be when it grows up. Will edit the rating if it improves down the line and if this stupid system actually lets me.

It's a pretty simple game concept, and has definitely been done before, but it's executed very well here. Standard netorare concept with good gradual corruption and a moderately likeable NTR-protagonist.

Wow! I was totally blown away by this one. I found myself completely absorbed and hanging on every word of dialogue. A stunningly well-done NTR game.

Pros:
+ Astounding writing; corruption happens gradually and believably, there's a lot of text for each character's inner monologue and tantalizing dialogues, characters are well-developed and having multiple protagonists allows for some flexibility
+ Graphics; didn't think I was a particularly huge fan of this style, but the graphics in this game are seamless and the women (particularly Mary) are hot targets; animations are well done as well
+ Gameplay; not sandbox, not choice-based, but a VN essentially broken up to feel like you're having a role actively navigating the story

Cons:
- None

I finally got around to playing this game and it really didn't disappoint.
I like the Koikatu style and this was my first in the NTR genre.
The characters are interesting and the way the story progresses is cool.
A great job so far!

To this advancement of the game, v0.1.3, the game is very good and promising.

Pros :
-Scenario is simple and efficient.
-Dialogues and topics are also straightforward and efficient, no blabbering.
-Female characters are hot (Mary and Erina as well as newly added Female characters)
-Kendo, the cuck-maker, is actually pretty cool and has Alpha-male features. Which is in my opinion pretty important as it add consistency in an NTR story.
-Inter-character development is top notch, the relationship progress between the characters is very good.
-Characters have some depth and proper personality.

Cons :
-Game mechanics seems a bit simple.
-Not enough renders in my opinion in the basic scenes.
- Animations during sex scenes should be smoother (like in the last update), because in the early part of the game it is pretty bad.


To conclude(Spoiler Alert), this game makes me think of this meme "I came looking for copper, and I found gold". At first this game looked like the common NTR game with no depth or development which would end really quickly on braindead and tasteless sex scenes, but nothing of the sort.

I don't dislike NTR, quite the opposite, I think that a well made NTR with some justice inside might be among the best porn scenario. Satoshi (the cuck) is really boring and pretty awful at some point with his girlfriend and is pretty egoistic. He wants before anything that his girlfriend fits his state of mind. On the other hand, Mary (the girlfriend) wants to progress her relationship with Satoshi at all cost and is way too kind with him. Kendo (the uncle, cuck maker) is actually genuinely a good dude who wants the best for everyone and will be the one to give the most and sincere attention to Mary. It only happens that Mary is super hot and Kendo was a womanizer in the past (who has some confidence issues linked to a certain "problem", which Mary cured) moreover they have mutual physical attraction so, why the f*ck not ?

I would rate this 4.5/5

Now im gonna be upfront here and say im cheating a little bit, I use URM to change the name of the uncle to my own. Having done that I am now playing one of the best Netori (MC stealing Lis) games out there. Really hot scenarios for people interested in Maledom/Cock worship.

I can only hope the creator adds the option to rename both Satoshi & Kendo down the road, that way unmodded players can better immerse in that Netorare or Netori experience, whichever character they prefer to identify with. The game does a good enough job with shifting the pov that you can observe from any angle.

Excellent start, i can t wait to see next uptade
Good and classic NTR story with the uncle
With a good render and enought content for a game who just start.

I m little curious about the happy ending.
For those who like NTR it's a must have
