Unity - Two Sides Redone [v41 Redux] [GreonoGames]

As someone recently said, the developer decided to remove certain content from the game and to stop developing it, but “maybe” make DLCs at the end. Not only has time already been wasted, and now this it's not just a disappointment for the community, it's a betrayal for those who supported this project. The game SpaceCorps works perfectly well, and you're not forced to watch any scene; you have the choice.

“allowing you to shape the main character's journey based on your principles, objectives, and preferences” .

Well, not anymore.

I suggest that the developer reconsider this decision, which not only puts the project at risk, but also alienates a large part of the community, at least 40% according to the poll on his Discord, who will no longer support the game. And some people say, “These are your choices”, “Do whatever you want.” No. The game was started this way, and it should continue this way, otherwise, it needs to be restarted.

They decided to remove all the gay content, and that was a huge mistake. It was the main reason I kept following the project and supported them on Patreon, which I’ve already canceled.
I really hope the people in charge regret this terrible decision

The Dev already deciced to 'reboot' his game and now even the reboot has it's own reboot, called Redux with, what feels like, less scenes than before and an ever changing UI and way to tell the 'story'.

Creator has a terrible knack for remaking the game once it gets interesting. This has been done multiple times now and progress is nonexistent. One must imagine Sisyphus happy to be able to redo the same thing over and over for money.

Can't roll back, Text is super slow since they only display a bit of it at a time. They give lots of options, but then block them off not even telling you what you need. The menu's barely work when they do, there will often be an overlay when playing the game. Even when you can get it to work the story is dull, and makes the MC a complete idiot constantly and no real choices to do anything different. The only choices you have are right and wrong, and there are 0 choices that actually matter.

Horrible game skip this one and try something else that is better as this one just sucks. It tries to be a VN, and a game failing at both.

About v0.39

It's good. Really good. At first I was not interested due to gay content, but gave it a try, and guys, I like it. All gay content absolutely avoidable. Story just normal, immersive and you really can believe in it. Characters very versatile and also believable. Every scene got a lot of possibilities and endings. Recommend this one.

i tried the two version, the redux and the other one and
the "original" game had better parts and variations, is truth that the designs improve in the redux version and the other one has more contente but idk is if a good idea remastering a game but i am looking forward to play more
my favorites characters without doubt are Anny and Jenny, i hope see more content of them

First of all:
The game is much better than the comments make it out to be. It's true that there have been three or even four revisions, and it's also true that the game's current version has less content than the last one. At the same time, however, it's also clear that the current revision will bring a lot more content and that a truly broad range of audience desires is being addressed. And that's exactly what makes the game so special in the end: that so many orientations are taken into account, and that you, as the player, can truly decide where the journey should take you.

If you take the quality standards and give an objective assessment, it might look something like this:

Quality of the models, including MC: 5 stars.
Model variety: 5 stars
Storyline: 5 stars
Development of relationships between NPCs and MCs: 4 stars
H-scenes: 4 stars

Paced development: 2 stars
Quality of updates: 4 stars
Customer contact: 5 stars

This results in a rating of 4.25 stars, a stable "good."

The game has amazing potential. Though it is a remake of an abandon game its, its completely refreshed with new models and characters. I have high hopes this game will get better and better with updates. Love the fact it was remade in Uninity the performance was solid!

It has a lot of amazing potential. Good CG and models. Interesting story! I hope the dev completes it. He has a decent to good fanbase and a amazinge basis to the story and gameplay with this "rework".
So yeah, try it out and see for yourselfs.

Could be the best game in the site. If the developer had started in Renpy from the beginning. He wants a sandbox with a lot more features that are barely feasible for a small team; let alone one person.

The characters are great and the renders are full of character. Too bad it's always been a buggy mess.

Last update looked like it was going to make the game less confusing. It didn't.

The game is a "wandering game"! There are more options to choose from than in any game, but it's great! Any road will lead to the finish line, but the impressions will be different!I find a lot of funny pictures and scenes. In the title picture, the main character is hugging his sister, and in the background are all the other characters who bring the game's scenes to life! Bert and Lindsay are standing next to each other! A brutal guy and a hot girl make up a couple, but still in a quarrel! I wonder how John can affect their relationship! Apparently this is the main event in the game! And many, many more interesting things...

I usually wait for a game to have a long development period before playing it. Two Sides has been in development for 1 year and 9 months, enough time to have a substantial amount of content, but that’s not the case.
Pros:

• The game is good
• There is a large number of characters
• The scenes are hot
• The story is interesting
• There is a huge amount of choices

Cons:

• VERY LITTLE CONTENT FOR ALMOST 2 YEARS
• All the previous pros, combined with the development time, suggest that the game will need more than 10 years to be CLOSE to completion.

Conclusion:
DON’T PLAY IT. Forget about this game, and if it’s not abandoned – which is most likely – it might become a masterpiece in 5 or 6 years

P.S: I almost forgot, it is a REMAKE of the previous ABANDONED game of the dev so maybe i was wrong about 10 years, 20 is most likely

This game is an absolute mess. Let's start with some of my main critiques:

1. Way too ambitious -- there are a lot of characters, but the amount of things you can do are limited to a small handful of them. If there was an idiom to summarize this, it'd be "as wide as an ocean, with the depth of a puddle". As a result of introducing so many different characters and relationships into the story it seems the story development crawls by at a snail-like pace.
2. On-rails "sandbox". Because of the previously mentioned point, the game ends at a preset day, and there is no sandbox. You don't explore and choose which girl you want to progress with first, you're shoehorned into specific events based on what the developer wants. You always start the intro with the train sequence, you then segue into meeting your sister, then going to the park, going home, going to the aunt's house, going to the beach, then going home, then going to the office. There's variations within those events that change who you interact with, but those events are fixed, you have no control over the overall day's events.
3. Lack of in-game direction. One event that frequently gets many players stuck (including myself!) is the beach event, where it's not clear exactly what to do and what the goal is. There's a lot of different scenes that can play out based on different factors, you can kiss your sister based on your relationship with her, you can fondle her in the shower if she's drunk enough, but you don't really know of this unless you're constantly rolling back your save over and over to try out different outcomes. Sometimes the game seemingly stops, giving you no way out of the beach event until you click something random and hope it progresses to the end of the day.
4. Convoluted relationship system. It almost seems simple enough, but the in-game help menu that describes what each stat does is exceedingly vague (especially since a lot of content isnt even developed much). For instance there's a liked stat (yellow thumbs up), a red heart stat (love) and a corruption stat that doesn't show up on the main screen, and a devil stat, but all of them don't seemingly do anything other than serve as stat checks for conversation options. The in-game reasoning for how the stats differentiate themselves doens't reflect the dialogue options you unlock as a result of raising said stats. Why do some characters start at 0 relationship level, and why do you start the game at a very negative relationship level with your sister despite how much she seemingly cares for you at the start?

Sex scenes (what little few exist) are fairly decent, but I can't recommend this game at all to anyone. The myriad of positive reviews and the banner tricked me into thinking this was a content-heavy game to warrant said rating, when really the game feels almost like an initial release despite being in development for months at this point.

this is a great game with a ton of paths! if you miss something (which you will depending on how you want to play the game) there is so much replay value and it has a little something for everyone. developer is very receptive to fans and is clear with his goal and the direction where the game is going on discord and updates are almost monthly. if you are looking for massive updates (summer heat for example) this isnt that game but putting out updates monthly is better in my opinion anyways. looking forward to the future of this game and everything this developer has to bring.

tho this is a reboot, and i believe for the 3rd time, this time the developer is really digging in and seems so invested and thats amazing to see.

Hooked me up, the game is interesting, besides that this is content with minors... your sister is literally 15 and her friend too, sooo, weird and creepy, im not disturbed because im very young myself, but damn, the creator is certainly a weirdo.
The story seems good and the way it progresses is nice, however, its clearly a overambitious project, there are so many tools and options to make you feel like this game has a bunch of paths or that is an open world but it really isnt, it is constantly introducing new characters in a linear matter and you dont even know what is coming up next, some characters simply are forgotten or you forget abut them almost instantly.
There are plenty of glitches/scenes that are repeatable and have no impact and the development focus should be much clearer or at least organized.
Regarding having a normal playthrough without being a creep, you just get to have sex with Lindsey, i mean, thats fine, but that after 4 hours of quickly reading through everything.
I like the pacing and the way new characters are introduced, but i dont like how they are played later, and how little interaction there really is.

Again, suffers from overambition and lack of direction.
And again, the story seems good, except when you get to the wacky lab and experiment parts, it just feels odd and off, like, completely the opposite of the rest of the game and even the vibe, weird direction, all that whole appointment and job interview seems off, almost like forced, as every event that occurs when you go to sleep (so much stuff happened in 3 days huh)

Weird game with potential, if it just used its time better, and i dont really like the experiments thing, its just off, maybe its me, but i dont know, its wack.

6/10 because it has potential, i like the artstyle, the way everything feels and looks, even the characters seem nice, but it just falls extremely short due to the lack of freedom and weird forced pacing.

And mind you, this is a project that i feel will be elongated forever, my guy has 300 patreons with a minimun donation of 15 dollars... He is making over 5000 dollars a month, this will never be finished, mark my words. Drip feeding, and its a game where the render quality is good, but just the posing, while the style is nice, the resolution and how everything is made, suggest over 10 minutes of work per animation/pose and less than 30 seconds of render time on the low resolution, so time/hardware is not an excuse for the updates.

UPDATED THE RATING TO 4/10, i dont see this game ever being completed and it already has serious issues and by the way, dont trust reviews, the game so far has literally no branching or ways to do stuff, its linear as hell.

Dev suffers from overambitious project but the building blocks are there, from character personalities and models to numerous branching paths and choices.
This is definitely a occasion where some simplicity would benefit the game, giving it 5/5 on basis of this having so much potential

Mechanically really good but is extremely clunky and can be a bit boring with rambling characters but has a lot of potential when it comes to its mechanics so I probably would’ve given it 2 or 3 stars.

But it drops down even below that is because of the offensive nature of the content.
At the start of the game you can set your age to be atleast 21 which is fine. But then you meet your 13 year old sister who you can be a creep to. I tried to avoid all of that content but game is in your face with it trying to hook you up at every opportunity, if not her then her same aged friend. I’m not sure how this is still up but the creator has lied that everyone in this story are 18+

Overly ambitious.
The story has too many characters and narratives to be realistically fleshed out in a single game.
In desperate need of proofreading and QA in general.
The English translation is inconsistent and there are strange jumps and repetitions in the dialogue.

There's a really good idea used as the foundation for this game. Which is sadly squandered if this is the level of polish the reboot has to offer.
