Ren'Py - Worlds of Wonders [v0.3.0] [It's Danny]

I'd like to review this when there is a decent amount of content, but I really don't have the patience to wait until 2050. I do like what is here so far, don't get me wrong. I REALLY want to give this four stars. It's very good, the presentation and worldbuilding is top notch. My issues are the same two issues I see over and over. DEFAULT RENPY UI and I'm not sure what bothers me more, a completely awful translation, or in this games case it's almost well done but there are lapses in grammar and words used strangely. A big one being "hu" instead of "huh." Either way, the English isn't all there and it's detrimental to a visual novel. You know, something you read...?

The story is MC's dad dies, not too sad though because he didn't know his dad. Leaves him a house and finds out he's a hairy wizard, or whatever the joke is. He lives with his step-mom and step-sister, a weird thing with that is the "patch" makes it so MC refers to them as step-family? I don't get it, but whatever. Up until the beginning of the story, MC was dumped and ready to go to college on a scholarship. But then get a letter saying his dad's dead and MC needs to go to the reading of the will. His dad left him a broken down house and a key (which isn't even a part of the story yet) and MC wants to learn about his birth parents. So he goes to Dark Falls to try to learn anything. There he learns about magic and how to learn more of it. He was going to a regular university, but Awkwarts, the university of magic, is free and will help him learn about his father. Can I just say, AWKWARTS? Are you kidding me? Anyway. And.... That's all there is in the game so far. MC learns about magic and other races, deters a couple vampires, and sleeps with a half-demon. Not a lot of actual progression.

This game has serious scope issues, there are a ton of love interests and the other half of the story that is hinted at, but not even implemented yet. There's the whole magic side of things and then there's the brewing Sci-Fi plot of space and the damn android on the game's banner. Not to mention the miniscule update size. So Once again this just feels like a patreon-milking story that will take forever by design, unfortunately. And I UnRen'd the game to look at stuff, I'm not kidding how overdeveloped it is. I get making things to build off of, but there are what, THREE "open world" segments in the game in which you walk through two doors, can't click on anything, click on the objective, and are forced right back into the linear story. On top of the shotgun blast of fetishes trying to cater to everyone, I don't see this not being a complete headache of a game to make.

TLDR - Short. Very short. Default textbox, font, and choices which is visually unappealing. The story is good, what little there is. And worth a read, in my opinion. Just.. Find something else to do until there's more here.

Writing review for 0.2.4.

As far as I see, the game as of now is just getting up to speed, and the story is just starting.

It is a VN, with minor choices. The story, and maybe more important, the storytelling is very good. For me, that really makes a difference. Having enough to read to keep me interested, but also few enough not not make me skip reading. That is really a crucial point that a lot of writers do not understand.

Yes, some story parts (the family) are not really ingenious. But as I said, storytelling is more important. There is no rush, and no endless stupid presentation of MCs forbidden thoughts.

Good game.
Solid 4-star.

Interesting story, good character designs, diverse character design, good animation, and the mixture of animation with the text sequence is good. -1 star due to soft-lock in some scenes if you lose the mini-game. But overall I would recommend this game.

I can't wait to see where it goes, will get out more of this dev's work and might check his Patreon, if these are the type of games he/she makes. Recommended to play if you enjoy fantasy-based VN games.

As of ver 0.2.2

Rating - Average
That about sums this game up from what I've played so far - average.

Almost everything about it feels like a cut-and-paste of bits and pieces of any of a dozen other games, and then reassembled in a slightly different way.
Immersion just isn't hapening for me with this game because of scene transitions or dialogues that don't fit the situation.

E.G.:
1. You get a room in a hotel for the night, get up the next morning, have one short conversation with the hotel staff then go and visit someone at a nightclub. One very short conversation later and you're preparing to leave the club *late at night*. Did the MC just switch off for the rest of the day? One short walk and two short conversations and it's already late at night?

2. You stay at the nightclub the next night after short conversation and very brief look at the 5 or so other cutouts (you can't interact with them) that were there, then wake up at midday because apparently you had quite a party there last night.
Huh? What party?

3. Was the MC driving to the old town or catching the train? He said "driving" a number of times.

These might appear trivial on their own, but there's enough non-sequitur scene changes and portions of dialogue that don't fit the scene, that they break any potential mood or flow of the game.

Nothing about it stands out at all.
Nothing here is new or different.
I do not think this game has any potential if the dev is going to continue to just copy and paste unoriginal VN "clip-art" and not put in any care and attention to details.

Pretty good game (0.2.1). Some grammar errors but didn't bother me much. The renders are very good and the story is interesting, characters are unique and likable/dislikable. The choices were meaningful, it felt like and a good array of different kinks were portrayed. But I really liked that there's further depth than just main story and kinks. The characters have their fears and concerns and I felt I really cared about them.

Some minor complaints:

-Team manager of galactic crew is just 27 year old, it's highly unlikely she would've had enough time to get educated enough, and she acts like 35 year old anyway.

-Dark Falls having no electricity feels like a stretch. But there's magic involved and most of the story is still unraveling so I believe there may be an explanation later.

-At times the scenes felt a bit rushed to transition into next one. Like at one moment the MC is at the cafe, one click and he's back home. But mostly the pacing is good.

And praises:

-Great renders
-Great sounds/music
-Great characters with depth
-Great dialogue choices
-Attention paid to details, I was impressed several times when I noticed small things on scenes
-Very nice character/scene gallery! +++++

Some people complain about partial sandbox, I personally like how it's done here. Overall I recommend this game and will be waiting for future updates. Good work so far from the dev.

Really enjoyed what there is so far a few rarer things like trans and hairy vagina which is nice. Really enjoyed the characters so far and love Maja and Sam. Some of the writing is worded a bit odd but what adult game isn't lol.

This game has so much potential, great writing, nice renders, interesting world. Add on top of that a super hot trans character and hopefully more trans content you can't go wrong. Trans is optional but for those who are into that you will be interested with how hot that model is.

Theres a good starting amount of content, just enough to pull you in and I cant wait to see what's next!

Great VN so far, the ladies are beautiful, there is a decent amount of sex already, and the story is interesting and well written so far. I also love the variety of different types of content and there are lots of different types of girls as well as fetishes

Story 5/5
Characters 5/5
Renders 4/5
Sex scenes 5/5
Overall 4.75/5

I've enjoyed this game so far. There are aspects that are a bit weird, but they're clearly intentional. The Dev has done a good job of getting the ball rolling, getting the player into the game's world, and introducing the characters.

The user interface is good, and I really like the character cards. I'd like to see those expanded as the game progresses. The game looks to have the potential to eventually have a wide range of different sex scenes and kinks, which is great. I really like some of the characters and don't others, but that's fair.

Definately keeping an eye on it, and looking forward to the next release.

I don't think it's fair to write a review on a 0.1, but i'll because i think the game has a good foundation, i'll edit as the review as the game progresses.

Story is well written and well presented, the girls, environment and renders look quite good. The dev respects the players by giving options to shape a few situations.

I can definitely see this game getting pretty good with more content.

As of v0.1.1
The Game has potential,
The story is a little unique.
The art is fair/good.
The dialogue is good, no Engrish.
Grindy, nap, nap, sleep, nap, nap, sleep, event, nap, nap, sleep Maybe put a little something in between.
If the Dev is new at this, it's a good start.

For the first release it´s pretty good.
At the moment there is not that much story, but I do like the Idea with the "dream" and how its build up so far.
I do enjoy the modals and hope to see more in the future.

No content nothing i'm not sure how the game size is 2gb.
Kindly provide if there is any walktrough.
1)MC was supposed to go to college but location of college is not there.
2) In another location girl has given the address to MC but the location is not available.
