Unity - Completed - Timestamps: Unconditional Love [v1.1 Steam SE] [Motkeyz]

This is what I would describe as a true Virtual Novel. This is not a 'game' although it is in the style of one. The audience cannot make any decisions that will affect the outcome of the novel or even the progression in any way. This detracts from how much enjoyment I can derive from this virtual novel.

This is fine but not exactly clear when first downloading.

There's plenty of BGM and it seems well chosen, the animation and modelling is better than average and the story is interesting.

I am looking forward to other games by the dev but with how Timestamps is currently laid out, well I feel satisfied after playing through the first chapter and don't feel invested enough to continue on to further chapters.

The Dev should look at re-working the format of Chapter 1, there's a lot of potential there.

Pros:
1. Amazing animation and renders.
2. Sci-fi is a good change.
Cons:
1. I personally am not a fan of this "huge dick making all the women somehow sex slaves of the guy" thingy. I get that this is a porn game but still I've played a hell lot of games and honestly most of them had at least some love building up.
2. Also, I don't get the dev's obsession with Julie smoking. I haven't seen many smoking fetish games on this website so probably the dev wanted to try something new but I feel that we should have been given a choice.
3. I like completely shaved pussies and well, there were none in this game. Most of the other games have a mixture of hairy and shaved but that wasn't the case here.
4. The story seemed linear and choices didn't seem to matter that much. You can't skip a girl you don't like.

All this aside, I feel that the future games by the dev would be even better. Good luck to the dev!

Damn this was good.

The characters are fleshed out and interesting. They have their own motivations, desires and range in intelligence. I had a soft spot for Juli and was teased to oblivion but that was an excellent way to heighten desire. Nika won my heart too. As for the girlfriend Maureen... gotta love her spirit and devotion.

The story matters. As you probably read the game's description: time travel is involved. It's chock-full of sci-fi and mystery, inspired by the movie Back to the Future. I'm glad the vast majority of twists are experienced in your own timeline. That does give it a certain oomph, that you're not just messing around in time-jumps where you get to do anything. No, it has direct consequence because you're doing it in the 'real' world.

The dialog is done well. Each character has their own mannerism. Never was I bored or did I lose immersion.

The sex scenes are great. They have sublime animations and lots of intimacy with eye contact and kissing. The characters look as lifelike as it gets with current gen. And they're occasionally animated even outside a sex scene! Goes to show how much attention went into this.


This is a must play.

Great game ! I started playing the game thinking it's just another VN with lots of sex in it... I was wrong. This is like a Sci-Fi/erotic novel with a fairly linear story but, the premise and execution is like nothing I've seen before. I won't spoil it for anyone wanting to try it for themselves, but be patient with the story and it will deliver
Like any game it has small problems, some of witch were solved in the second part, but I'll leave that for the chapter 2 review .
Great animations, renders, story and funny pop-culture references.
The text needs a little more proof-reading to be up to my standards
Renders 5/5
Animations 5/5
Story 5/5
Execution 4/5 (small problems with animations; repetitive music; some typos and grammar mistakes)
Overall 5/5
I really enjoyed the game overall and can't wait to see what happens next.

Beautiful game, the story is very original and well researched (looks like a movie). The graphics and 'good level animations well done, the audio is ok, the and' divided into parts so this version Unconditional Love leaves a final open to the next episode (not yet complete at the moment) However very nice, I wait for the end of the second chapter to play and review it.

This is my really first visual novel. I'm really surprise by how good it was. The scenario is well written and the arts are fantastic.Thank you dev you really have a talent. 5 stars, and thank you very much for this brand new experience !

This masterpiece, is an adult version of Back to the Future. First, I want to talk about the render quality. Oh my God! It's an absolutely state of art and very unique, somewhat stylish. I've never seen anything like this before, top quality. The writing is hilarious. Humor is all over the game, even in tense moments, you can read something that make you smile. The story seems more complicated than Back to the Future as there are more travelers here that cause more chaos in times, but I feel all mysteries and chaos will be resolved logically in the end because I think dev(s) wrote the scenario before starting the game. Minor details in the beginning may tell you more later so pay attention everything. Also, the story is quite linear for a VN. There are small amount of choices and most of them impact sex scenes or sex partners, so don't expect path changing choices.Honestly I don't care of linearity of the game because other aspects are great. Speaking of sex, they are all animated and very exciting. Females are gorgeous, MC has a horse dick, so enjoy. This is a masterpiece, highly recommended.

It's not a visual novel, in a sense that there isnt really character build-up. Every female in the game wants to have sex with you because you have like, a big dick or wherever the reason.

That causes the storyline to feel empty. You don't really believe in what's happening, and you can clearly see that everything is there just to clear that or this fetish. I'm not saying fetishes are bad, but without any build, good context or believable story setting, it's just porn scenes.

That said, this is a great example of porn game. It has almost everything and the animations are superb.

4/5

Certainly one of the best games. Truly excellent with top quality animations, renders, story line, use of language and performance. Very interesting plot and highly erotic atmosphere with so many beautiful and sexy characters. A lot of content from a reliable developer.

When I saw the startup intro of the game I knew it gonna be a good experience. And now that I finished the first part of the game I can see I was right.

Now about the game:
Characters:
It was good to see a variety of boobs, asses spread over a wide range of age (you kind have a bit of a granny there if you are into that). So far I like the most the actual girlfriend and Molly but neither the MILFs are not bad
What was a bit of an off thing for me are the Mrs Julian hairstyle and the face of the Nikki that some times look a bit retarted

Story tell:
So far so good, and the end hook me up, waiting for the second part. The story brings many different possibility
It is the first game where the fourth wall is broken so I was cool to see. But to make sense they should not appear anymore on the second part
Map style
Easy to use, simple and nice

Task system
It was a bit difficult at first until I start to get use to it. After that it was fine. I am not sure if it was just me or it is a fault but each time the task list start with the first task of the day and it does not go down to the task that you have to do, so you have to scroll down


What can be improved
- it will be nice if some scene would have some music. The actual music easily become repetitive so after a while I start playing without sound
- a retouch of Mrs Julian hair
- a retouch on Nikki eyes

This is my first review. I'm doing this because the game can be more than it is
just finished. Good game with decent renders, the animations are nice but they take a little to load and the game can get stuck on them (had to reload the game a couple of times), most of the time I ended up skipping them, they are basically well done gifs.
All the girls are hot but the mom, hated every single scene with her. she looks like an old bimbo Karen with a wig, I skipped most of her scenes (so, actually, a good half of the game, she is basically the main girl. meh).
Lot of dialogues, sometimes useless walls of text, sometimes just a turnoff (can never forget your mom telling you put it where you were born from or something like that).
Story is good, starts as a silly do whatever you want in the alternate timeline, then it becomes more interesting and much less predictable, i think i'll play the second chapter just to see how hings turns out. I mean, also to fap, but hell I already know I'm in for a lot of vanilla uninspired incestuous sex scenes with the gobbo mom.
Oh, I almost forgot, give us more Maureen.

I just finished playing E2Ch2 and I have to say that this game started to grow on me more and more by the update.

Fantastic plot, regardless of popular opinion on this forum, which in all honesty makes complete sense so far. The fact that it is so complex is what makes me like this game more and more, the fact that there are loose ends is because we are not supposed to know everything just yet but at the same time you get the chance to know enough in order to actually enjoy every moment of this plot.
That was my summarized opinion on the plot, which again is fantastic, and now to move on to other aspects of the game.

Sounds. The in-game music and sound effects are great, they suit the needs of every major and minor scene that they are attached to, creating an ambiance of sorts that only adds to the flavor of the game.
In my opinion, what would make it better would be to add more voice related sound effects to H scenes and Plot scenes in order to really take it to the next level.

Renders. Nothing negative to say about that. Amazing renders which have only gotten better with time since E1P1.

Animations. Not at the same level as the renders, in my opinion, but close and also getting better and better by the update. Very, very good although I fell as if not all of the animations were created for the right situations/angles regarding both H scenes and Plot scenes. Short version, although the quality is the same, some animations seem out of place and even not needed considering that the time and resources spent on them could have been used for others in different points and scenes of the game. Also, I have some frames here and there with some animations but I can't figure out if its related to my Processor and GPU or with the actual coding of said animations.

Characters. Absolutely amazing in terms of appearance, attitude to match and background stories. So far I haven't seen any out of place character, and all of them received the exact amount of content and attention needed in order to contribute positively to the game. Personal preference, I like Juli and all that but she doesn't deserve the main female role in this game just for the fact that I believe she is being eclipsed by other characters. Lately she hasn't been getting as much attention as she used to and I feel that other characters, no spoiler, are getting more of their deserved attention and content. I really hope the games continues being steered in its current direction.

With all of that being said, with comparing this game with what else is currently out there and with the mention that nothing is perfect, I would like to give it a 5 star rating.

dialog is awkward. What to do next isn't hard to stumble on to, but also isn't intuitive.
characters suck. I mean, I know it's a porn game, but very little effort seems to go into character development or making anything seem real/believable.

And I despise the animations. As is, they are decently done, but being entirely unable to skip through them means being trapped and waiting for them to end. I hate being forced to watch the same 10 frames, looping for what feels like minutes, before some small change is introduced and then waiting for it to finish it's loop.

And I hate the MC's mother. Seriously, she's pissed off because her husband, in his 40s, isn't capable of keeping up with her demands for multiple sessions a day, and chooses to think either he's cheating or isn't into her? It's a minor complaint, but it sort oif highlights the general unbelievability of the game.

Yes porn. Yes, silly incest time travel story. I get that. But Christ, suspension of disbelief is part of any work of fiction. Put in some effort. You can always add wackier, more outside of what is believable things later, when the MC has fucked with time a little.

Lastly, for a time travel game? Shockingly lineir.

there's a lot this has going for it. So it's frustrating how much stronger its annoying qualities seem to overwhelm what is good.

Damn good graphics, a good story and the dev actually is focusing on it alooot but we focus too much on the milf and the girlfriend we have is a little wierd but overall a great game can't wait for the next installment since this part ended in a ciffhanger .
The game took me about 5 hours to complete .

Summary: Very good renders, but a bit dull in the end with a story that goes nowhere and not much gameplay. The render quality and the fact it's well written (if dull) lifts it to 4 stars for me.. No great annoyances but not really any super highlights either.

An initial look at the game might give the impression this is a free-roam type game but it's not. This is a very linear VN. While the game ironically has a much nicer navigation interface than most games that actually need one, it ultimately serves no purpose here. There's no point in going anywhere but where the game wants you to go next, which triggers the next scene and so on. There's an in-game hint and guide system that spells this out for you so you don't need to pointlessly cycle through locations. No need for a walkthrough in this game.

Renders: Excellent, what can I say. Well above average. Personally I find MC's ridiculously over-sized dick to be a bit of a turn-off as it looks more ridiculous than anything, but your tastes may be different. The sex itself is otherwise completely vanilla.

Story: The game is mostly well written but the story ultimately goes nowhere and everywhere at the same time, and it all becomes pretty uninteresting. I started skipping text pretty early in the game. The few choices you get along the way can usually be summed up as: "Watch scene? Yes/No". Finally, it ends on a cliffhanger setting up the next chapter of the game.

Absolutely fucking filthy I can't think of too many bad things to say about it. Great animations but maybe some of them too long, Using the walk-through IMO is recommended and for my personal tastes there was too much smoking involved, but all in all I really enjoyed it.

4/5 Sex scenes, they are very detailed and much more than the regular boring scenes most games have but awkwardly broken up by the animations .

0/5 Choices, literally there is not one single choice you can make that will effect the game in anyway they are just do you want to see the immediate sex scene yes or no.

0/5 Love interests , you cannot choose or reject any woman in the game.

3/5 Art work, while great quality all the women are the same in body type, the "mom" looks like shes from the 1950s.

2/5 Story, It starts off well with so much promise but gets incredibly complicated very fast and goes nowhere while just pileing on questions with no answers.

2/5 Quality, the game is linear but is made open world for no reason but to waste time and it has loads of lag in game and using menus.

The best part of this game are the technically impressive non-sexual scenes, i.e. the crime scene and the saw lighting. If you're super into Milfs fucking a teenage boy, you'll like this game. The basic conceit of the game is not really explored except for one day, lots of random sex with renders you just met and don't care about with not enough content for the best renders. I can't hate on this game as it's made clearly with passion, but it's extremely disappointing.

You have to like the main render Juli as she is forced upon you whether you like her or not, and I definitely did not. She's the blonde with the bangs in the previews.

It is simply amazing!!
The story, the renders and the overall game is superb!
Looked like a really ambitious project from the getgo but it delivered on its promise, and then some.
Great job OP!!

Long time forum stalker, relatively recently made an account, and despite the fact that I've tried (almost to the end), more than 400 games, I never wrote a reply, neither ever wanted to.

Not until Timestamps Episode 2 came out...

I admit that I am a sucker for stories, so I may not be 100% objective here, but each review is a personal preference post after all, isn't it?

Well, long story short, after playing the last update only one word came to my mind:

MASTERPIECE!

Yep, exactly how you read it fellow f95zoners, it's a freaking masterpiece.
The models, the animations, the uniqueness are all top notch;
but the story... oh boy the story, you start thinking that all those broken puzzle pieces are just scrambled jibberish here and there with their sole purpose being to lead to lewd scenes.
But after you start progressing and realise that each and every piece of the story is connected to each other, BOOM! Mindblown.
Seriously, the story (and I hope they 'll play it the same way till the end), is better than half the ones we encounter in books and movies out there.

There is no point to get into details, but lets just say that if not every character, then 90% of them, plays a significant role in the outcome of the events, and the game is worth more than your average fap.

If I had to break it down to individual ratings I'd say :

Renders 5/5
Animations 4,5/5 (They way they are handled are kinda problematic, but the "cutscene" feature makes it up)
Controls / UI 5/5
Story (seriously) 6/5 (I know, I know)

Nothing more to add here, congratulations to the studio behind Timestamps,
definetely one of the best games of the genre out there and a MUST TRY for everyone who's interested in a story driven - erotic game, and not on a quick fap & leave.

Keep up the good work Aesouh & Motkeyz!
