VN - Ren'Py - ToxiCity [v0.08.0] [ILSProductions]

After Now&Then (which is one of my faves), I was a bit confused with the premise of their last game. But this seems like a return to form for ILS. Hooked on this and very keen to see how the story progresses.

I'm a sucker for any story that puts mundane people in an isolated survival scenario. That is why Stephen King's "Mist" is is one of my favorite books and this VN fits into that niche very well.
The characters are just the right amount of interesting and while the plot hasn't picked up pace, I love how the initial "adjustment" phase was written.

The visuals aren't the greatest, but they are good enough. It is a very promising package overall.

The new game from the Now&Then and The interim domain creators. This alone should be more than enough as reference.

As of v0.02 this new adventure is for now just a bit more than a Prologue, setting up the stage for things to come. Huge potential here. The story is interesting so far. Render style has changed a bit from previous ILS games, having been upgraded from the older HS engine to HS2, which means all new assets and settings. I'm still getting used to this new style, and the devs themselves will probably need some time to adjust and refine their new rendering pipelines. But really promising so far. Cannot wait for the next episodes.

Great story so far. Good character deveolpment. Interesting story build up. The general premise is really intriguing as well. ILS does fantastic work and I can see that this is going to be another success. My only issue thus far is its very short. I dont mind the slow burn, no sex yet, but this is just a prelude and 1st chapter. Not even all the players are here yet. Waiting for the update.

I've played Ver 3 and the game does not disappoint. Great character buildup, good dialogue, decent art and we finally got to not only meet the antagonist but also get our first sex scene!

I'm up to Ver 7 and the story is still fantastic. It is a bit of a slow burn with significant build up but well worth the wait. The characters are interesting and have intricate and interesting backgrounds that become revealed in a realistic way. Good job as always from this developer.
