VN - Ren'Py - WVM [S2 Ch. 1 Ep. 13 B3] [Braindrop]

Fantastic VN. Amazing graphics, excellent story (that admittedly is getting a little more far-fetched as of v0.7.6, but it isn't by any means bad), and great character development. I actually like the characters in this game, and I like some of the diversity in those characters.

I've never really taken to transgendered characters before or viewing any work with a trans/futa genre tag, but I made some exceptions in this one, notably with the bestie. I haven't "played it straight" just yet--which I might do to see some renders and story differences (skip functionality will be my friend for the story and renders I've already seen)--but for some reason I actually feel like the character makes sense given the backstory of where she comes from of being bullied by others and feeling a sense of closeness towards such an imposing protector-turned-magnetic personality.

I'm looking forward to seeing future updates on this one. I appreciate Braindrop's hard work on this one; it's both a fun and beautiful artistic work.

just hoping some angelic modder floats down from the heavens and makes willow/cedar/cedey smashable
otherwise this game is really good, its involving, very centered around your choices, and you have many choices, and they usually let you choose whether or not you want to smash a certain girl.

Great story Fab game , the characters are likeable and your drawn into the story, lots fo fuckable ladies add a few creeps and a good storyline and what more do you need. Keep up the good work we wait with baited breath for updates

This writer understands the principles of male fantasy very well. Every time you think it's going to have drama that in the real world would be a disaster, dude gets away with it and gets the girl. Doesn't pretend to be something it's not. Great CG art as well. 5/5

Alot of games fail to capture an interesting story and would rather just make it a skippable VN that has some mediocre mature scenes, yet WVM is one of few games that's story has kept me just as interested as it's lewd content. Really excited to see where the dev takes the future of WVM.

Lots of interesting developments and twists in the story. Can't help coming back for more and always jonesing for the next update. Although to be honest, I mainly keep coming back for Jamie's freckles and her big beautiful eyes. With Shauna being a big plus as well along with the potential of something with Azel.

I love this Virtual Novel storyline i didn't think i would like it at first but it took me a few weeks from the first time i saw it first time but when i played it i couldn't stop playing i beem playing this game from start to finish about 10 to 20 times because this is my favourite novel so far i can't wait until next update OBS!!! Good Work

This is a great game. I like the setting of being a up and coming basketball prodigy. There are many girls to choose from. The story is fairly interesting and the animated scenes are great as well. Would highly recommend this game

Aside from the adult aspects of this VN (which are beautifully rendered) the story and characters are amazing, easily one of if not my favorite VN I've ever had the pleasure of playing. I played the entire 7 days available in one sitting, I just couldn't tear myself away. I've never bothered to write a review for a game on f95zone but I really did enjoy this game that much, the developer is insanely talented and I will be becoming a patron on patreon after I get back to work. 10/10 would recommend.

This is a neatly little gem of a game. You play a young college freshman that picked an university with a less than perfect basketball team. This is not one of those MC lives with mother and sisters games, partially because MC was adopted and partially because of the nicest part of the game.... the dames!
For starters you have the sweet Jaime , MC's girlfriend, a soup for the soul, then there's Shauna, MC's friend that has a crush on him... what will the player do ? Will you be loyal x create a poliamor relationship or maybe create the ultimate harem ? The paths are endless...
The art takes some time to get used ( especially the kissing images) but once you get used to it's non-pretentious nature you can't get enough... maybe there's too much sexy times a bit too soon but the dev manages to balance it by giving each character an unique personality and dynamic while still giving players an emotional story about being human. This game deserves all the attention and support possible.

The following review is based off my personal experience with playing this Game/Visual Novel... I try to be as brutally honest and detailed as I can, and these are my own opinions and thoughts, from one or more play throughs... The version this review is based on is Day 1-7 v0.7.6...

This VN/Game is one of the better ones I've played/read, even though it has some quirks which I'll mention below...

The visuals of the characters are decently done, although some faces are slightly odd looking as though their lips are in a constant state of pouting... Thankfully most of the characters faces have a tendency to look more natural... With the pouting lips theme only being present on a few of the characters, which kind of made them a bit more fake looking... Almost as though they used a little too much Botox on the center of their mouths... The backgrounds are also decent, as I only recognized a few... The animations are done well, looking very fluid... Tending to be moderate to short in length...

This is a highly point of view (POV) driven VN/Game, with much of the inter-character dialogue using zoomed in camera shots of the characters faces and/or upper torso's... I do feel that the POV shots when the protagonist was interacting with the female characters did instill a higher sense of connection with those characters, especially since the protagonist is very friendly and caring towards most other characters... The only time it felt out of place was during open mouth kissing... I really think that open mouth kissing shots would have looked far more natural using panned out shots of the two characters kissing, rather then zoomed in POV shots... Anytime I've ever seen POV open mouth kissing, regardless if it was in this VN/Game or others, it always seems to look unnatural and weird... Normal kissing tends to look alright... But as most kissing visuals in this VN/Game use POV, it can make the event feel a bit awkward looking when it's open mouth...

The script is very well done, as I only ran into spelling/grammar errors now and then... The plot revolves around a male protagonist who is drafted into a college basketball team... He brings along his stepmom, his girlfriend, and best friend... Being pretty much the star player, he of course gets a lot of attention... Thankfully his attitude and behavior is that of a very friendly and outgoing personality... Who is not only friendly with most of the characters, but also highly protective of his friends and female companions... Most of the story revolves around his interaction with various female characters while attending classes and basketball practice... But there are some moments of intrigue as well, mostly revolving around the school principle and a rival college student... Even though some of the instances of drama are slightly over the top, perhaps bordering far-fetched... Thankfully those events don't pop up all that often... Leaving most of the intrigue revolving around the protagonists, partially forgotten, past family life...

There are many choices presented with regards to women characters that pop into the story as it goes along... As the player/reader you get to decide which women you want to pursue, and which ones you want to keep at arms length... The primary characters are the girlfriend, female best friend, and the stepmom... But others do play strong roles depending on choices you make... The protagonist has a lot going on, almost to the point of making you, the reader, feel a bit overwhelmed... And the more female characters you pursue, the more busy life gets for the protagonist... Most of the time he seems to handle it well, but as the reader it can sometimes feel a bit daunting, trying to keep track of everything he has to deal with, in your head... Thankfully that feeling does not always present itself, but I just wanted to mention it...

I was on the fence about whether to give this one 4 stars or 5... Mostly because of the visual issues I mentioned, and one of the slightly over the top melodramatic events involving the somewhat evil male rival character... Which I felt was pushing the limits of believable... There are several moments through out this VN/Game where I did feel that, some aspects of the story, were a bit over the top... But I still enjoyed the majority of the story, and tried to have some suspension of disbelief... In the end I decided to give it 5 stars, but with the understanding that this VN/Game is not without some flaws...

Overall, I enjoyed my play through of this VN/Game... It is a decent balance of meaningful story telling, decent dialogue, and erotic events... You can feel the love between the protagonist and the various female characters he has relationships with... Through both the visuals and the text... The protagonist is a nice guy, and feels more genuine then most male protagonists in these sorts of VN/Games... He's young and is driven towards wanting sex now and then, but doesn't have perv like thoughts all the time... I wish the POV shots didn't include open mouth kissing, but most of the POV visuals did drive home that sense of meaningful connection with many of the characters... Will I revisit this one? Most definitely, as I did enjoy my play through...

This VN/Game is still under development, and the current content does end with a bit of a cliffhanger... I wish the developers the best of luck, and look forward, some time down the line, to seeing how this one progresses...

(v.0.7.6) - Not played to completion - Minor spoilers

You can tell that Braindrop, the dev, puts a lot of effort into WVM. The models are all high quality, there are plenty of dynamic, changing poses throughout scenes, a ton of choices, a ton of characters, and animations (although those are quite basic). You can also tell that Braindrop wants to cram everything, story-wise, into this game - sex, romance, drama, etc. Some things are done better than others.

The best thing about WVM is the abundance of love/sex interests. You really do build a harem in this game, and it's up to you whether you want to romance characters or keep things casual with them. The characters themselves are all high quality and varied in appearances. I wouldn't say they're all attractive, but you're guaranteed to find a handful to suit your tastes. The sex scenes themselves are usually just okay, and kept fairly short, but they're very frequent. This game is all about edging until you get to the right one, then it's time to blast off.

The worst thing about WVM is the cheesy dialogue in relationships. There's lame dialogue everywhere since you're a modern day Cassanova and every living woman's desire, but it's really tiresome with the primary love interests. You won't hear the end of "I love you," "I love you too," and every expressive variation imaginable. There's so much coddling and way too much sweet talking. Pair that with an abundance of uncomfortable close-ups - stare into Jamie's eyes if you want to learn the secrets of the universe - and you'll soon find yourself skimming through the dialogue in most scenes.

It's worth pointing out some details Braindrop included for the visuals. The first-person hugs are fantastic. The kisses, namely Jamie's, can be a bit much, but that's me not being a huge fan of her perpetually wet lips. (That's twice I've ragged on her, but she's still super sexy.) Other characters with more tame features aren't too bad.

WVM is worth checking out no matter what your interests are. The game sacrifices realism to bring you girls. Lots of them. And fast. If porn is what you want, then porn is what you'll get. But, if you're feeling lonely, in need of affection, and have always wondered what it's like to live in a world where women are all horny Carebears and you can do nothing wrong, then you'll also enjoy this. Thank you Braindrop! Keep up the great work!

Awesome game! There are no wrong choice in this game and
You can have all the girls in the game. Every girl is different from another and that means
There something for everyone. Really love this game, keep up the good work!

Finally a good harem game built around romance. I don't like any of the games that involve building a harem through domination or violence. That sort of stuff just isn't for me even though they seem to be the majority. So finding this was refreshing.

I'll address some of the common complaints seen in other reviews first. The complaints that this game focuses too little of actual basketball mechanics are just lol. I'm not sure what people were expecting with a porn game.

I also don't mind the complaint that the MC is too nice of a guy, because honestly I can't think of a better way to setup the concept of building a harem romantically. There has to be some reason for why so many women would want to have sex with the MC and the excuse that the MC is nice and is helping every girl with their problems is fine narratively. It also helps that the MC is a star basketball player, and all around hunk, in selling why so many women him. Another nice narrative point is the explanation for why the MC's girlfriend allows so many women to have a relationship with the MC. It is actually explained and works, as opposed to so many other harem games where it is barely addressed if at all.

I think that is what I like most about it, everything seems thought out ahead of time, and updates complete or add days and work like another episode in a TV show. In a lot of other games there are holes that don't get addressed in updates because the developer focuses on other things that makes the plot sporadic, forgets about characters, etc.

Some sort of hardship or other flaw for the MC would be welcome just for some narrative variance though.

Other things that are good. A lot of great characters with variety that aren't just tropes. For example, one of the cheerleader characters isn't exactly your stereotypical cheerleader. The two trans characters are done well, with a lot to them, and I wish more games would include characters like them. There is a choice in who you want to pursue and other minor choices that give a little variety, but I wouldn't say there are completely separate paths. But that is fine since this story is good.

Renders are great. Sometimes there are a few weird shots, but all the characters look decent and distinct. I like side-shaved heads, so it was cool to see one character have that since it is pretty rare.

Some generic background music would be nice just to have something other than silence but since it is so easy to get that on Youtube, which I do, it isn't that much of a negative.

Good amount of content with nice pacing. Nice build up to the sex scenes where everything isn't just sex from first conversation, but also it doesn't take forever to get going. The balance seems just right.

IMHO the best game I've played on this site so far. If anyone can think of similar games, message me their titles. I will be grateful.

Every once in a while a story comes along that doesn't deserve to be reviewed.

It just deserves to be enjoyed.

@Braindrop is one of those few creators that should be cultivated, because you know he's on track to create something special, perhaps even Legendary, and this is just his first effort.

I have played this VN, since the first release, the renders are very good, there is little animations but since this is his first vn i'm sure he will get into making more animations as the story progresses, dialogue is also very well thought out and the english is perfect, i'm not a big fan of Ahegao, but you take good with the bad and there isn't that much to push me away from the game or even to deduct a star as i'm rating this in my own opinion (others will differ on this).
I find myself really engaged in the story so far and i am really looking forward to the next release, i have done 3 play through's of the current story so far, with trans option on and off and with and without cheating, and no matter how i play it, i keep wanting more, So if you have not played it, i highly recommend it, you will not disappointed.

This is a fun game. The story line isn't the greatest and if you try and think about any of the sport stuff in any type of critical matter it falls apart ridiculously. But let's be truthful here, you're not here for something with the accuracy of a 2K game you just want sex. For that they have numerous scenes with a good amount of creativity. Solid venture

I had my doubt about this game but ill tell you what, i was PLEASANTLY surprised! The game isnt anything crazy or revolutionary but it is well written and the characters aren't too uncanny. The scenes are great and well placed, characters are semi believable and interact not like robots. Give it a try

This games Main Character feels like how a white knight would imagine a cool character insanely "nice" to literally everybody (tons of characters) and can do basically anything,
But he has no actual goals or feelings apart from appeasing everybody making him feel super fake and uninteresting. Not to mention the 14 inch dong which is not even a talking point in this game whatever.

Then you get onto the million other characters there is a lot of them but all have a very basic personality, it's usually a base personality trait then undying devotion towards the MC (for no reason other than hes nice and attractive of course) repeat this 40 times over and you have 99% of the girls in this game. Boring.


3D Models - the models in this game vary pretty heavily there are some high definition attractive models, but there are also a bunch of ugly models with weird faces, weird eyes, just generally looking abnormal many of them have huge tits to a point where it becomes meaningless and you don't even register it as something unique about the character I guess this is just a side effect of having too many characters.


The overarching story is also super bland and uninteresting you practice basketball once even though being an amazing basketball superstar is the main characters only trait, the villains don't actually do anything the flashbacks are pretty weak overall everything that happens in the story feels meaningless.




tl;dr - This game has awful characters mediocre art and a boring story with terrible pacing The only real value is if you want to see a slideshow of sex scenes from MANY weirdly proportioned girls but all the scenes are samey.

It's some pleb tier understanding of what makes porn games good

btw the Trans character is flat pandering and is barely a plot point or a character trait for the girl

I wanted to like this game, I really wanted to, because the setting is great. But the dialogue is way, way too verbose, with the MC being always the insufferable mister super nice guy with zero personality, always giving long boring speeches to the girls that are always in agreement with him. Look, I love harem-themed games. I know he's supposed to be the super alpha male who always knows the right thing to say. But the way that WVM delivers with the annoyingly long and out-of-touch dialogues, it just feels way too pretentious, even for my tastes.

So yeah, I can't stand the dialogue. As for the renders... they are ok, I guess. I have seen worse, I have seen better. But in the end, the whole thing feels like a waste of potential.
