VN - Ren'Py - Completed - Through Spacetime [Final] [Empiric]

MC is an astronaut, gets stuck in slower time by a black hole and gets rescued by a crew of beautiful girls, 800 years later.
He is now the last living human male.
As you can imagine, he is in demand.
This game was a lot of fun! Enjoyed the story, liked the characters, the girls are lovely and (review at ep. 6) there's an intriguing plot.
Very much a harem game, as being the only living male of the species would suggest.
Repopulation is tough, but someone's gotta do it! lol

Wastes no times in telling us what kinda game this is gonna be: sex, sex, sex, some more sex, back to main plot, sex to develop plot, sex, and so on and so forth. The premise of the MC waking up from a 800 yr slumber to be the last living man on a ship full of hot women should be all you need to know in terms of the amount of content you'll be getting

The overall graphics and renders for the models are actually pretty well done. The animations did improve both in regularity and quality as the game progressed so I hope to see more of that in the future

Plot obviously isn't meant to be as realistic and is a tad rushed in terms of character arcs but still holds up and provides an enjoyable experience

5/5 technicalititties

This is a really fun game. Story is interesting, choices are matters. The theme of the game fitting with the story. Renders and girls are beautiful. Lewd scenes are arousal and hot. I'm looking forwad to new updates in the future.

I probably like this game, though erotic parts seem not very impressive.

But my main disagreement is that female politicians aren't that different from male ones. (Etc.: socium without males wouldn't be that different.) So the story does not convince me.

what a fun little VN. the WT mod is nice but not needed. choices are generally common sense or perv. the models are really nice, dialog is intelligent. and story is good. the animations however not the best, but not anything worth complaining about. so far i have enjoyed this. it is simple clean dirty fun. and a little charming. definitely worth a play.

nice story, nice graphics, you can choose who you wanna have sex or not, dialogs are ok, jokes are ok but we need more and more dialog options like at least 3 choise would be enough

the main problem is; its going too fast like slow down a little. let us see the new universe, let us know these characters, we need some bonding time before "boning time"

Good Points
+ We have an interesting SCFI story and it's completed with a little bit of rushed but well-made endings.
+ Texture quality and style look good.
+ Girls/Women look pretty hot and we have a variety of different girls.
+ Sex scenes have a couple of different angles/positions with animations.

Bad Points
- Like I told story is interesting for sure but it feels a little bit rushed, I wish DEV had done a little more detailed job.
- Sex scenes don't have consistent quality and even better one looks average. Some sex scenes don't have animation, some have animations with bad physics and FPS value, and some have animations with average physics and FPS value. Some of them have a good variety of positions/angles and they do look and some of them look bad etc. Basically, they don't have consistent good or bad quality but when I look generally I can't say I do enjoy sex scenes except for a couple of them.

For The End
Well, the thing about Andromeda in the final was kind of obvious, so I wish DEV would go another way around and didn't make her evil behind all of this. And for the final, we had two different endings: King Ending and Non-King Ending (LMAO what a weird name.) In King Ending only Andromeda's sex scene had animations and the other girls didn't have any. MC was purple and bald with a beard and it was kind of boring I should say. Didn't live up to the name ''King Ending'' at all. But the Non-King Ending was pretty cool, it had prego content with all girls with animations and in the end, we saw MC's children and that was dope as well. Honestly, if this game wasn't completed and the Non-King ending wasn't good I would give 3 stars and nothing more but with being completed SCFI game (It's very rare) and having at least one well-made ending I'm gonna give 4 stars and suggest people who want play average-good SCFI adult game with a well-made ending.

Nice renders, exciting story line. This game is a very special one, since it is not so often to find an erotic sci-fi game with these kind of properties.
I hope there will be more adventures in the game and I hope it will have many new episodes. Congratulation to Empiric for this game.

Review of Ep. 4
The game was more enjoyable than I expected based on the reviews.
The woman are absolutely gorgeous and all of them have their own distinct personality. Nothing I've never seen before and not very deep ones but it's enough for them not to be generic sex dolls with different skins just to participate is sex scenes. There is a variety of drugs/mind control in the game, so most of the girls are influenced by that and become willing members of MC-s harem but, at least for now, the crew members are not mindless dolls controlled by MC-s ability but even if under influence of his pheromones made the choice consciously. And I was really happy about this.
There was some development in the last part of the game that indicates this might change and not only for the enemies... I hope it wont turn the crew into mindless sex slaves.
As for the MC, he is not very smart or strong, he is a bit overconfident but overall not a bad guy. In a game with a more serious tone his personality would be a big issue but it's OK in this one.
There are a lot of sex scenes with a lot of women, but unfortunately they are all quite short and while seemingly lesbian scenes or the MC having sex with multiple women at once should be very fitting to the story, none of these happened yet.
The story is interesting even if not groundbreaking. It seems to be a mix of common sci-fi tropes, but it is quite well executed most of the time. At first look it seems inconceivable why the women in the crew react that way to the MC as they do. After few hundred years without living human males logically all women should have become lesbians and would be grossed out of having sex with a male. This is somewhat mitigated by the fact that cultural artifacts from the time when male existed are still popular, which includes romantic movies and even porn and that a lot of woman satisfy their needs by using sexbots probably based on male anatomy so they might be interested in trying out the real thing.
This doesn't explain why Sam didn't now what's happening to her during the first mission. And that since sex between species seems to be a thing it this universe, why didn't the non lesbian women find a sufficiently human-like alien to have sex with. But oh well...

So why only 4 stars if the game is so good?
Because I feel that the game would have been better if some (most) of the relationships had improved more gradually.
Also in most sex scenes MC has the option to not have sex, but since having sex doesn't seem to have any downsides at least I haven't noticed any) you will only lose out with this choice.
The only case where MC chose not to have sex with a girl immediately and take it more slowly was a non-selectable option and even then it only delayed the sex one day. I'd have liked if there were more woman with whom the taking it slowly option would be the way to go.

Sci-fi
harem
Humor
A lot of Sex and Nude Scenes

I really like this game so far it has a great story if you are into sci-fi and it just checks all markers for me which i want in a game. I get a lot of guardians of the galaxy/Thor 3 vibes from this which are my absolut fav's

the only thing i can think of that is kinda small - for me is that the game feels a little rushed at some points.

IAM loving it.

Through Spacetime is a simple game whose only purpose is the provide a backdrop for the lewd scenes. Nothing clever is done with its premise other than to create lewd scenes, so...turn your brain off for this one, guys.

The story is simple enough, if illogical, but sets up the Ultimate Cosmic Harem. The MC being the only Man in the universe. This however falls short several times in the story as dialog, the way women behave and dress, often fails to assume that this character is the only man. A lot of dialogue opportunities are missed of a woman who has never interacted with a man before. But, the premise doesn't exist for story purposes. It only exists to put you as the one Man in a Galactic Harem, so turn your brain off.

The character models are good but not up to the standards of some of the more visually stunning games out there, and the plot, while silly, is original. Not much to say about either. Sex in space is the goal. Everything else is a backdrop. Turn your brain off.

The major thing I struggled with in the effort to press the mouse to continue the story is that it's a shame that the last Man in the universe is also one of the dumbest that ever lived. This guy is so stupid he can't be taken seriously. Same is true if it's supposed to come across as funny because he so stupid I cringed instead of laughed at his asinine statements. I guess the last Man is one of the Three Stooges. The story has to be carried by the supporting cast because the MC is so inept (he even has a blank, dumb stare), that he cannot possibly drive a storyline. In the scenes where things are happening and he is present...he is just present. He contributes nothing to any scenes apart from making dumb comments and being the Man in lewd scenes. If he were more formidable, the game would be so much more immersive and interesting.

His inability to plan, think, or reason makes him perfect though for a characters who's single and only purpose and contribution to the game or story is to move from one sex scene to the other. He's not a character with strengths, flaws, goals, and personality. He's just an erection with legs. So I guess in that regard, he's fine.

Don't think about it to much. The lewd scenes are great. This game is best played with frequent use of the Skip button since little of the dialogue will hold your attention. There is a story there, but you are so disconnected from it because of the mannequin of an MC that it's hard for it to matter. A game like this needs to have an MC you can empathize and connect with. Not a moron passing blankly from scene to scene, not comprehending what is going on around him. I feel the same way about the story, though for me its not comprehension. It's that I don't care because he doesn't care. That's not a good combo for a VN.

The story and plot is thin but there is one. It seems as though the writer doesn't really care about the story because you feel as disconnected from it as the MS. It's just a backdrop to stage the lewd scenes after all. If the MC were clever, formidable, personable, interesting, curious...something...the game would be much, much better. Imagine Farscape with a moronic, disconnected John Crichton. The stories wouldn't matter because the protagonist is the just there to watch them happen. The show wouldn't have lasted a season.

Lewd scenes are often and mostly good (though all of them dispassionate and unimportant). Other than that, the game will do little to keep you engaged.

2 out of 5 stars.

I played the game today for the first time and here's my two cents:
The renders are good, the women are beautiful and have a very nice variety of characters and appearances/body types.
The Story is interesting enough, the writing has some genuine humour.
What I didn't like that much was the writing in the sex scenes, it was basically nonexistent, apart from the spoken dialogue.
That isn't enough for me, I need more than just porn images, to find it really sensual/ erotic.
In general the writing is a bit sparse, it's not so much that it reads like it's written by someone where English isn't his first language, it's just that it is just the basics really. No flourish, no elegance. It isn't bad, it's just not enough, at least for me.
This could be a really great game, it has the looks, it has a workable halfway original story (which is a lot by the standards in erotic Western VNs), it just needs a bit more oomph in writing and in the sex scenes.
I mean, some of the girls love the MC, but apart from saying they love him, it seems like they just want sex, there's no real romance, no closeness, nothing apart from sex basically.
The situation in the world and what is happening gets told, but that's about it, the MC barely has any questions, none of the women are fe. afraid of this completely unknown creature, a human male, you'd expect there'd be more shock among the crew, more shock from the MC when he hears it.
Once the crew knows about MC's pheromones, would some of them take care not to get to close to him?
IDK, the story is just full of these things, where it feels a lot more should happen, a lot more interaction should happen.
Don't get me wrong, it is an enjoyable game, it just feels like it could be so much more.

Renders are good, the beggining of the game is good, it almost sucks me in. The building thing was good, and readable and seemed important. It was kind of predictable where this was gonna end, but didnt expect it this way.

The game should be at least 5 times longer, Mcs dick could be cut in half and multiply sex scenes duration and character introductions, by 2, at least.

And also make him last more than a couple of thrusts or strokes, sometimes its silly how fast he cums. And of course you go to another girl right after the previous one, and the same happens, you barely know who she is and for whatever reason you have some sex stuff and after 5 renders he cums and repeats the process.

It turns senseless, and the virtual clone or whatever was just the fatality that destroyed the rest of the gmae for me.

In General this is a game that's worth playing for it's varied models and good renders.

Artwork: 4/5
The scenes are well lit, models very beautiful and while the scenery is not enormously detailed it still manages to keep the sci-fi vibe going nicely.

Game-play: 3/5
The Game is stable, there are no problems saving or anything of the sort and some choices. However the choices mainly extend to playing or not playing certain sex scenes, so there is not a lot of variability here.

Plot: 5/5
The Plot is well thought through and even though not all elements are new or unique it is generally entertaining.

Writing: 2/5
Personally I feel this game might benefit from an writer looking over particularly the beginning of the game. There are some minor typos, but what bothers me is mainly the naivety of some of the main characters as well as how flat most of them are. While they all have an interesting backstory to uncover, the game doesn't make the MC work for that like it would happen in a normal human relationship. They all just flat out tell the MC all their deepest thoughts and worries the first chance they get. Improving this could in my Opinion make the game truly great.

Edit v.0.9: I feel like this game has really come around on me, the story has gotten quite interesting and I've grown somewhat fond of the humor, I've upgraded to 4 Starts

Right to it.

Writing is good. It grabs you and pulls you in. Even though the MC is as dumb as a sack of hammers.

Renders are pretty good also. The girls are pretty hot.

The bad to this is due to myself. I don't share my girls with anyone. Not even with a VR dupe of myself.

I will not trash the game or the dev over this. It's worth playing. I'll just wish him well and move on.

So good renders and very nice artwork. Fully cared GUI environment. Use different camera angles that enrich the narration. Well designed characters. Well designed environment.
Well told history.
Correct rhythm in the narration, and very dynamic.
I miss "rape" a little more, but that's a matter of taste.

Totally recommendable.

[Ep. 3]

Heh, this is a better VN than what it appears to be at first glance. The first episode is a bit of a flop. A short segway into how he ends up in that pod at the beginning would have been cool. It's a bit of an abrupt start to the journey. You go around and meet and bang some of the crew members. The sex scenes are incredibly short and lacking at first. The initial plot set up and tone kind of pointed towards a last stand of a man against the feminist overlords (which I thought would actually be pretty funny lol).

Anyways, as you get into the second episode and beyond, the plot picks up quite a bit and we begin to see that the game isn't all about mindless romping though space. There is actually a plot brewing and the characters do have some depth which wasn't apparent at first glance.

It's not high art or incredibly epic storytelling, but the game starts to form into a decent little space opera with nice bits of humor thrown in. I found myself laughing during some of the scenes and plot developments. At the risk of sounding like a snob, I think my sense of humor is quite refined.

I mentioned the very lackluster scenes on the first episode, but it really seems like the dev is improving in this regard. We got some longer scenes with decent sex dialogues, so there is something to work with here if they refine it a bit.

Not bad at all.

PROS
Story is entertaining
Renders are good
Characters are interesting

CONS
Tiny typos here and there

Overall

Quite the entertaining VN. The story is good, and the characters are well developed. The amount of sexy women is nice. I hope there will be more introduced in future updates. The dev has put a lot into creating this. I highly recommend giving it a play through. Keep up the great work.

Story: Starts off with Last man on earth set up and slowly transitions into a save the universe scenario. A little bit messy but a good try nonetheless.
Dialogue is a bit strange at the beginning but as each character is well written I find myself gravitating more to the personality than the looks.
5/5
Art: Not amazing but the sheer amount of good looking women and well designed characters overrules that. A few more aliens and a little better shot composition would be great but its pretty much the cream of the crop when it comes to the designs.
5/5
Gameplay: Choice based VN but choices matter more in the individual level which I respect and accept. Otherwise nothing groundbreaking.
4/5
Overall: Play it! 5/5

actually read/enjoy the story. great pacing in the context of it being a sex game. dialogue actually feels relevant to the sex scenes and not just something to get thru. love the content and character/story dynamics. really promising. even for a first version feels satisfying. looking forward to complete game
