Ren'Py - University Days [S1: Ep.10] [GREEBO]

There's porn logic, that skirts the boundaries of suspension of disbelief, and then there's University Days that has been swallowed up by the big black-hole of zero logic.

That's the gravity of the story.

The animations are by no means a force of nature, either.

But, at the end of the days, the renders are okay.

There is a good selection of models and environments. The story is good; it's not burdened by thick plotlines. The game receives updates regularly. The developer actively engages with the community and listens to feedback/suggestions. Overall, this game is in a pretty good state and has much potential to grow. If you haven't played it, you're doing yourself a disservice by not giving it a go.

I would actually rate this VN 4 if not for a couple things.
1. No choice on which girls you do or don't pursue. There are a few I would prefer to avoid, Miss Nelson and Ivy stand out but there are others. I just don't find them attractive.

2. Too many facials and body shots, not enough creampies. I'm a firm believer in giving people a choice where the MC unloads. Yes, you creampie sis but she mentions being on the pill which is a buzz kill for me. Give us pregnancy options. Even if not your thing the option for those who want it is nice.

Plus side, not all females have extreme proportions and some are pretty nice looking.

The writing is okay, not much of an over arching story, it's closer to slice of life. I did start to think the MC should just keep his mouth shut during sex scenes, his sex talk wasn't very good.

All in all it's not awful but there is room for improvement.

Short: Nothing new under the Sun.

Long:
This is an AVN with good renders, nice models and all, even some good ideas here and there, but with a rushed script and sketchy sex scenes. It's like watching a movie in fast forward, everything "happens" and by the time you are taking it in you're already in the next scene. There's no real sense of continuity, and while the overbearing rack syndrome is only present on MILFs, almost every girl wants to get in your pants as soon as they see you. Not a single character in the game is believable, and animations could as well be removed to save filesize as they're useless anyway.

There's background music but most of it is already known from other games. Also at a certain point you're given the choice of playing a section either in sandbox or novella mode; I'll let you decide whether this is to be commended or a sign that the developer isn't too sure of what they're doing.

Realy liking the game so far. It is quite original with realy nice story. Models are also beautiful and natural looking.. no attributes out of proportion, Looking forward to play continuation of the story...i cant wait for next update

I'm not sure why the game has such a low rating. The plot is actually quite good and the quality of graphics is excellent. There are some very interesting scenes in the game and the developer regularly releases updates. In my opinion, the game deserves 5 stars. Thanks to the developers for creating an enjoyable game!

First things first, the reason I don't like this game is the non-existent story and zero effort in that department.

Renders might be okay, and models look good, but what does it matter when all of them have poor written personalities and look like empty fuck dolls?

For people like me who hate incest, this game is a big no-no because you simply can't avoid it; it is forced on you. You don't have a choice.

Speaking about choices, technically they are here, but in reality this is the kinetic novel where you simply can't choose shit; all relationships are forced on you, and the developer doesn't give a shit about who you like and who you don't.

MC has a girlfriend but cheats on her every single minute, and she doesn't mind that, like this is an absolutely normal thing that every boyfriend could do.

MC is just a stupid degenerate who behaves himself worse than a 13-year-old child.

For me, Uni Days is one of the worst games I saw in that genre. I recommend avoiding it.

renders are good
characters look good (but...)
mc doesnt look amazing and acts like stupid 17yr
story is 2.5/10
mc fucks everyone (and i think u cant avoid it)
the rest is neutral

overall for me its mid tier not shit but not really good either

review based on : University Days [S1: Ep. 6 P2]

Not recommended anymore. What happened to be a top game turned into a bad one.
Thankfully i waited until now to review this game, as i would have to redo after this update.
With this update, the dev decided to leave the story driven VN mode, and turned it into a freeroam desaster, which leaves player standing there, searching for the next clue or trigger.
This game suddenly lost all it's immersion and all that, what made it a decent game.

Art: A variety of models and good art
Animation: Some basic animation, but keeping it simple means they look more realistic
Story: So much to do and expand on, looking forward to future developments
I wasn't sure going into this game but it really grabbed me. Lots of plot and storylines to investigate. New characters keep popping up. I hope the creator is able to keep all the characters story's going. The story is not unique, but it is written well and the dialogue is fun to read.
I look forward to future updates.

This is only getting 2 stars instead of 1 because the dev did put time into this game and the renders aren't horrible and it has animations.

If you play these games for the porn you may like this if you can get past the negatives. I haven't disliked a game this much in a long time. Only reason I didn't drop was because it was bad enough I was curious what was going to happen next

Positives
nothing

Negative s

• MC is a perv

• Ivy offers the MC a deal for sex which means cheating on his GF and we get no say in the matter
• Every lewd scene is forced, the only choices that appear dont even matter
• Forced peeking on the girls

Edit: EVERY time I get a notification someone liked this review my only thought is "What game is that?" Hopefully that illustrates the impact of this game.

Anyone who's been on this site should know, a 'game' based around MC going to college is going to be the most boring, unoriginal, formulaic slop. Anyone who says otherwise must have rose tinted glasses about the four girls that talked to them in college. No matter what, I'm not holding my breath that this will do anything original. Hell, the UI is stock outside a font and they changed the thumb for the volume sliders. Working real hard on UI/UX I see. And you don't even need to start the game to see what you're in for in terms of renders. The girl in the main menu has stiff, floaty hair that clips through her skull. It immediately feels like "We just wanted to push out something to entice patreon members." If you even try to say otherwise, the literal first scene is a sex scene. Meaning there will be no substance in this. And most character intros are either the character being naked, under dressed, deep cleavage, or bearing their cervix for all to see. I'm not one of those idiots that slut shame a bundle of pixels for liking sex, I just find it lazy and boring to write women this way.

I'm not 5 minutes into the story, and MC woke up, had sex, went to class, fell asleep right away, and you're given dream sex. MC's already bored, what does that make me? So add "dumb useless dream sex" to your shovelware bingo cards if you got em. And he's thrown out of class immediately because he doesn't have full control over his body as if he's a toddler. Why are so many MC's unable to control when they say something, or how much they ogle someone? And it's not like he mumbled something stupid, he just shouted it across class. You know what that's called? A functional or mental disability. So congrats, MC is mentally challenged. They also go RIGHT to another sex scene in a bathroom they somehow can't smell or see cigarette smoke in. So add little to no situational awareness to their characters. Welcome in the phone that has barely legible text. And MC continuing to be an actual dodo when Ivy propositions him for sex. If you need a masterclass in writing terrible characters, look no further than this. And Zoe, the sister type that all you know about her got mad, rightfully so, at mc for having sex and peeping on the mom type? She suddenly says "Yeah let's play dress-up with this girl you haven't seen in 10 years, us, the adults, play dress up." Real consistent. Gabriella also has this empty, stoned look on her glassy, lazy eyes which do not do her any favors. And nothing but dumb sex contrivances happen through the rest of the story. MC LITERALLY walks room to room and women throw their vaginas at him for no reason. "Because he was there" is the best explanation I can think of. He's pretty much just a doorstop.

Luna pushes sex with others onto MC, if only she knew he was an asshole already. He blackmails his aunt-type to do what the scummy stepdad(?) was doing already. The principal is using him for sex? I guess? And Ivy is using the actual dumbest person in the school to get better grades. My god. Gabriella shows up, MC has literally no memory of her, but then both of them act like they've never lost contact? Does no one read the things they type out after it's saved? Every girl bends over backwards for this wet blanket of a human being that is MC. The only saving grace of this was it's pretty short, I was worried it'd drag on, but no. MC is... Rewarded with sex from Luna for everything he does for her? What has this troglodyte done for her? Cheat on her? Get stale in the bedroom? Lie? I've yet to see one good thing MC has done the entire story. But it ends right there, at current End Of Content(0.5). It's not even funny bad, just boring.

The English would be good if there weren't weird phrases like "She's just a trouble causer" Because, sure, an English speaking human has totally said that before. The UI/UX is stock like I said, so no effort there. The art is... Fine. Rose has milky bloodshot eyes, Gabriella looks stoned and brain-dead, Ivy's piercing disappear, and none of the nipple look real, more drawn on. The animations are okay, not the usual slow motion back and forth but still just a single loop that doesn't do anything special. The Dialogue is fine, it's inoffensive if not a little stupid. The story doesn't exist. I was expecting too much when I thought there'd be a story of any kind, and that's my fault, I guess. If they could somehow turn it around to campy porn stories, I guess it would be fun bad? But as it stands, there's nothing here but porn animations. Just make those, don't waste our time on fluff text that makes me sad I read it. If you just need a wank, I guess this is for you, but I don't need to come back to this, ever.

Cant say i enjoyed this one, im just tierd of pure mindless fuckfest games, you might as well just go visit a porn site would be faster and easiere, this one seems to pretty close to a full kinetic novel, you have no controle over who you fuck and theres absolutly no relationship build-up which makes just another pointless porngame where all the girls feel like whores that are more then happy to jump on MCs dick no matter how much of an idiot he is.

Also not a fan of not having a choice to allow MCs girlfriend to have sex with another girl, MC feels more like a submissive slave just fucking everyone and even letting another girl fuck hes GF, and without choices you cant choose to be faithfull either since MC jumps on any whore he sees.

I do with devs would learn how to tag games right, theres a reason i dont play kinetic, i just hate forced shit and not having a choice so i never play them, it would only help dev as well since game wouldent get bad reviews if people know what to expect and the players wont waste time playing something they know they wont like.

I did like some of the girls but hated others which makes only makes game a turn-off.

Animations are ok but nothing special.

Music is decent.

Low effort VN with a bunch of sluts, no real choices including all the things you might want to avoid. Blackmail, femdom lite, cam whores, your gf fucking with other girls, cheating on your gf all forced. MC is a puppet.

If you want a decent story or decent sex scenes or even some relationship building look elsewhere. A few of the models are good but thats the only good point I can make and to be honest its pretty standard with modern hardware. The rest is low grade, low effort, boring and forced with a loser mc.

If the dev actually decides to go back and make things avoidable like he/she is saying then I would be avoiding almost every situation and girl in the game. So far there is only 1 or 2 girls that are not just trashy ho's doing whatever they please while mc just gets dragged through it.

I wont even come back to this one to see if it improves because it would need an entire rewrite and new path's added where there should be actual choices. The only choice you get change nothing of the story or mc only if you want to peep at somebody or imagine them less than fully clothed, while blackmail, femdom or even the girls are not optional at all. This is a KN in reality every choice is unimportant and the story goes on single track and its painful.

Review - S1 EP 5

The renders and models are ok, but that is also where the positives end for me.

• The MC looks and acts like a 14-15y old idiot. He is also a spineless wimp, which gets pushed arround by everyone and their dog...and of course for some reason every girl wants to jump his dick.
• The characters are flat, there isn't really anything likable about any of them, imo.
• The story is basic to say at least. The blackmail is dumb, same for the MC to go along with it, be it the principal or some annoying girl in the bathroom...
• The choices are, from what i can tell, completely meaningless and make no difference.
• You have no choice which girl you want to pursue/fuck/''romance'', they are all forced. Same obvious for the cheating on the gf, which the MC doesn't seem to give a single fuck about. What's even the point for giving him a girlfriend...
• Should be labeled as a kinetic novel.

The game has decent graphics but considering the plethora of games similar to this and the fact that this game should be choice-driven then it is rather poor that there is so little actual choice that the game offers. You just boink everything that is visualised and there is no actual choice to make or story to see.

The game is fun to pass time, but that's it. The characters have no personality (except maybe the cheerleader). And the story makes zero sense. I mean, one thing is to be "blackmailed" by a classmate to do their homework but the principal? Also, they don't even remember what is going on during the game. For example, you talk with Gabriella and tell her that Zoe want to reminisce past times by playing dressing up, and days after when Zoe actually talks to her is like they forgot everything.

Pro’s

• The renders are good, with some attractive models.
• Animations aren’t bad.

Neutral

• English is ok. But not really much story
• It’s a fuckfest…mc fucks everyone. Guess this depends if you’re into that or not.

Cons

• MC looks and acts like a dumb 16 year old in college.
• You have no agency as the MC. Pretty much a kinetic novel but not tagged as such
• You cannot avoid fucking anyone that I’m aware of.
• 3 or 4 scenes are behind a paywall and unfortunately it looks like episode 4 ends with a major scene behind a paywall.

This falls right around a 2.5 but more negative than positive imo so giving it a 2.

I passed on this game partially because of the low score until now. It was a mistake on my part.

The game has hot renders, varied love interests that don't all look like they're from some other game. The game is sometimes rather direct to get to fucking, but it does not feel like some other games where it makes the scenes feel meaningless. It's more like everyone's just really horny. I think this game could be rated either 4/5 or 5/5, but I'll go with 5 because this game doesn't deserve it's current rating.

It could have some improvements in terms of bit more foreplay and original setup with a couple characters and music sometimes didn't match the scene super well.

The femdom is really mild in version 0.3.2 at least. It's essentially two women with fearsome reputations that play some games with you to get your help and your dick. In one of those interactions it seems like the player is able to shift the power dynamics to his favor already or at least contest them.

There doesn't really seem to be any dislikeable LIs for me in the game despite a wide cast which is a good sign. Hope the dev manages to explore all the characters.

I really enjoyed the game thus far. The story and people are well written and you are invested on the MC journal. Hopefully the game visual can be improve upon on the next update. I will keep my eyes on this game.
