Ren'Py - Abandoned - What a Legend! [v0.6.04] [MagicNuts]

This has so much potential. The art is great, the gameplay loop seems fun, the story has levity in just the right way. Really looking forward to seeing where this goes - and how quickly.

My "allowance" for supporting these sorts of projects is already spent, but if this is going to be of the quality that I hope, I'm definitely gonna have to raise it.

It took me about 5 to 7 lines into the game to get me hooked. It is amazingly fun and witty with amazing art.

Don't get me wrong, there are apprehensions to be had. 3d games are inherently scalable, just give the models and scense to whomever, have them farm the renders for you. Writing code for renpy games isn't tedious or very difficult if you know anything about programming. But hand drawn games are much less scalable.

Hence this score is more of a "on trust" kind of thing. It is an absolutely amazing start, I hope to see the game come to fruition, and I hope it doesn't take 5 years.

What there is here is amazing, but there isn't that much yet.

P.S. Also, I have to praise the gameplay a bit here too, I just have to!

Many devs think that if they don't add "choices", they will be considered a "VN" and the gullible masses will just ignore their game (that part about the gullible masses is kinda true, I don't get the hate towards VNs).

So what do the nincompoops do? They add wrong choices. You know the games, it doesn't have "paths" or "consequences" - it has "sex" or "game over".

Well this game had one of those choices early on. My heart skipped a beat thinking "nooooo, and it looked so good too!". But no, it was a clever and funny poke at those games. I like the direction the dev is going, and this actually feels like a "game".

bro, i never rated any game before, this is something else imo and i only played like 15 min. The love to detail is beyond anything else i ever saw here. I mean the map layout is so sick. The Art, Storytelling, Characters, Humor......A fucking Plus

Really different from the cookie cutter Daz3D clone games, it's a breath of fresh air. The art is superb and the writing is good enough that you can tell the difference between each character. Here's hoping this thing takes off because I'd enjoy seeing more of it.

This game is absolutely amazing. The art -- as anyone can see from the samples in the OP -- is incredible. Very high quality 2D art of beautifully designed ladies, backgrounds, settings, and everything else. The writing is also great. So far the story is just beginning, but it seems to be interesting, contains a main plot and subplots, includes interesting and varied characters and is generally speaking very entertaining. All in all, a must play. I also recommend checking out the Patreon page of the dev because I believe such great work should be supported (especially when the dev isn't some huge or well known developer who already has thousands of patrons), but of course, each person has to decide for themselves if they can or want to support the dev. Whatever you decide, do yourself a favor and just play it.

First off, this game has A LOT of potential. It already has a basis of what kind of content it's gonna have through showing us a lot of locations on the map that're gonna be accessible, and it also shows us which characters are gonna have scenes and so on. I also like the fact that we have fantasy-esque creatures instead of just straight up humans. I hope we may see other fantasy races like Orcs or Imps and such. The women in this game look amazing too. It'd be cool if we could use the character builder the Dev has in place for Patrons to create our own custom characters (male) to use in the game for scenes and such but that would take time to develop and isn't necessary.

Pros:
- Amazing Art Style
- Great Animations
- Beautiful Characters
- Big World
- Hint System
- Promise of Content Through the Planned Scenes

Cons:
- Didn't get the Birthday Harem

Greate graphick art. Nice and smooth story. With 5 difrent time fases which realy change location. Hint system is very helpful. Variation of characters looks nice. If game map will be used in full potencial, it will be very huge game :-D which i hope.

Pros:

• genuinely funny and engaging from the first couple of lines, i'm ashamed to admit that i normally skip the dialog in these sorts of games but this story gripped me from the start and i haven't skipped a word since
• the art is beautiful and the animation fluid
• the sex scenes are hot
• the puzzles have been logical and interesting
• the progression of what you need to do next has made sense so far
• and the hint system has been good when you get stuck

Cons:

• theres a bit of input lag on the controls that causes miss clicks and there occasionally a 1-2 second delay when loading a new scene.
• this early version doesn't have a lot of content

I look forward to seeing what else is done on this project because so far it shows a lot of potential

It is totally worth 5/5 stars,and the amazing details are impeccable.If you keep it,personally think that the only thing that currently hinders it from being on the top list is time.Thank you guys for creating this game.

Review Version V - 0.1

To start off, WHAT A MASTER PIECE for the first release. Amazing in every way, visuals, characters, world, a way to guide you in our journey, literally everything. Not much else to say, support the game , WORTH !

This game could rival the likes of Summertime saga and such, BIG THUMBS UP DEVS !

10/10.

I normally don't try out 0.1 releases as they are often disappointing and so many games here die a quick death...

I downloaded this by mistake not seeing the version number, but I am so glad I did. The story is pretty good, the art is great and the potential you can see with the characters and world is fantastic.

I really enjoyed the (limited) content, and appreciate the work that has gone into the UI, hints, achievements, etc. Looks great and will be keeping a close eye on this game.

Its not very often you see a release with all the pieces of the puzzle - story, characters and UI - awesome job so far!

Perhaps it was because of the heavy rain, or perhaps she was in a hurry. All I know is that when she left me on that damp doorstep. She didn't realize that instead of the orphanage, she had left me at the brothel next door.


These are the first five lines of text in the intro of this wonderful game. When i finished the last line, and started laughing loudly, i knew that we have a winner in the making. Fabulous art, excellent humorous and smart writing, clean code (no discernible bugs). A clever, clean and interesting, interface, pleasant flow, and a simple and easy to follow pointers.

Magic Chestnut, Magic Pistachio, and KC.. Great collaboration, great work. Keep this partnership going and hopefully thriving. For now, Five Stars is well earned.

What an update.. Worth the wait. I am still in rose's quest. Hillarious. Everytime the MC tries to solve a problem he caused by "Thinking" he gets things worse and yet in the end there is a solution to the new problem "he caused". If for nothing, the concept alone is worth playing this game. Everytime the MC "THINKS" I say to my self...oh shit.. what is he going to come up with. And it keeps getting better.

Great art, Good Story, and most important, no grinding!

Its the kind of game that I apreciate the most, good jokes.

More often then not we see devs leaving games like this unfinished, and it's understandable, since a game so well made demands tons of work... I just hope it is not the case with this one and it reachs it's full potential.

Awesome overall.

One of the best games with the most potential. The ART is really something else, Absolutely stunning. The animations are Top Notch as well. The story has wit and humor to it which sparks joy here and there.

Cant wait to see where this goes in the future.

Animations 10/10
Art 10/10
Girls 11/10
Story 9/10

A lot of devs think they're clever, this one actually is! It has a very old-school Space Quest/QFG vibe to it. The hand drawn art is seriously great and there's clearly a lot of work put into making the game look good.
