Review for True Love: The Game (Chapter 1 – v0.1)
The first chapter of True Love: The Game shows potential, but it’s also clear that this initial release is still in its early stages and could benefit from some refinement.
Writing & Script
The script itself is decent and sets up an interesting foundation for the story. However, there are noticeable grammatical and spelling errors scattered throughout the chapter. While they don’t completely break the experience, they are distracting at times. Hopefully, these issues will be addressed in the next update, as cleaner writing would really help the narrative shine.
Character Models & Visuals
One pleasant surprise is the use of character models that differ from what we usually see in similar games. They help the cast stand out visually. That said, the overall presentation feels a bit uneven. The posing is sometimes awkward, and facial expressions don’t convey much emotion. This becomes especially noticeable during conversations, where characters often appear to be looking slightly above or past one another rather than engaging directly.
Audio & Music
There is music, and it generally plays at appropriate moments, enhancing the mood without becoming intrusive. It’s not groundbreaking, but it complements the scenes well enough.
Animation & Video Sequences
Surprisingly, the video sequences are one of the stronger points of the release. They’re handled well and add a nice level of polish—more than expected, considering the static renders themselves are fairly average. It’s a pleasant bonus that helps elevate the presentation.
Choices & Gameplay
The chapter includes a handful of choices, though given that this is the very first release, it’s too early to tell how meaningful they’ll be or how much they’ll branch the story. It’s something to keep an eye on in future updates.
Wrap-Up
Overall, True Love: The Game Chapter 1 wasn’t a bad experience. There’s room for improvement, particularly in writing and character presentation, but the game has enough charm and potential to warrant following its development. I’ll definitely be checking out the next update to see where things go from here.
