I'm checking this out because I saw a looot of people on r/eternumites talking about it. One guy said that this is the second best AVN out there, and second only to Eternum. He called it a 50/10.
In other words, this game seems to be pretty good, and it gets a lot of high praise. So, I'm checking it out to see what the heck the hype is all about! From the preview images, it looks pretty good! And I'm excited to get into the game!
I'll update this review once I've finished my first playthrough.
Chapters were surprisingly long, which was a good thing Dev definitely likes frekkles a lot
Writing is a little bit clumsy here and there, there's a couple crazy lines like the "flirty option" when you meet Lexi for the first time and tell her she owes you a blowjob, left me flabbergasted lmao MC shit talks himself a lot it gets kind of cringe but other characters do give him a little bit of shit for it so it kinda makes up for it, he gets called edgy a few times and he totally deserves it Overall it was pretty enjoyable and I'll be waiting for the next updates
No clue, but the dev posted dev log #16 on patreon 4 days ago... I unfortunately can't read it since I'm not subscribed.
BUT I have an estimation based off of the game's initial release and Chapter 2's release. So the game was released in July while Chapter 2 came out in January. That's about 6 months or half a year later.
Based off of that and assuming Chapter 3 is taking roughly the same amount of time, Chapter 3 MIGHT drop in July as July is 6 months after January. However, I can't read the devlogs so there might be something like "took a break" or "had trouble working on this..." , etc, etc in them. So it might come out in August or September instead.
Ok this game is good, like REALLY good. It's been a little while since a VN's made me this hyped about it's... everything.
I think the most recent would be AlwaysFan and It's been a little over a month since I completed that game, it didn't hit the same as a couple others I've played but it was still fairly memorable and enjoyable.
Now THIS one however. It hits perfectly.
The renders/animations are high quality, and it feels alive. Especially, with how the characters react to things and look around.
The characters themselves are really well-written too. Each one seems to have very distinct personalities, pasts, and problems. Saki is an excellent example of this. The MC's great too, in my eyes he's a badass who basically devoted his whole existence to volleyball and as such is quite ignorant when it comes to modern slang and women. He's a character you want to see succeed.
The story itself is phenomenal as well. I LOVE a good underdog story. A mismatched group of delinquents, partygoers, and normal people forming up the volleyball team. Plus that little bit after you accept the Dean's deal where it's a sort of "MC from the future looking back" thing is hype af.
Just started to play these type of games, by far, this is the one that made me ignore the sexual parts, I actually got immersed to the story before being horny. Just wanted to say, Great fucking game, made me tear up for saki. Thank you for making me cry again after a long time. Saki da best.
Man.... it's been a long time since I experienced a visual novel like this. The concept of the story is quite simple yet so well written. it's only has released 2 chapter so far and the story is nothing short of amazing tbh. the character is so likeable and somewhat relatable, they're no such thing as cliche scene or interaction that make me cringe (maybe some since our MC is a bit airheaded). The story is so linear and easy to understand yet so engaging and I loved it. They are only 3 sex scene but it was good enough tbh, personally speaking I loved romance development between the character rather than straight up intercourse, it giving me some spices in their relationship. Overall the game is good and I'm looking forward for chapter 3
Man, this is next level writing that we have here. You're doing an AMAZING job, this last 2 years i saw lots of VN being abandoned and most of them didn't were that good, but this one, please take your time and keep this good work because you're really good at this, i really want to see the end of this game
Are you looking for great art and character design, gripping story, heartfelt moments and a slowly built sexual tension between characters? Do you find the idea of playing as an ex-basketball prodigy slightly autistic and with serious anger management issues appealing? Then, as it was for me, this game is also for you. Not as heavy on the adult content as other games, however, Lopa found that sweet spot where the tension, drama and softcore make the story even better than if it was explicit. In the end you'll be quite intoxicated by the game and wish you could press the skip button on life so that you could play the next episode. The only small gripe I have is that choices are few and do not feel really consequential, it is obvious there is one main vision of the story as the alternatives seem to bring you to a dead end rather then open up other paths, many games do this so I am not really bothered by it but still felt like it was good to mention it. In the end, still a banger story with great visuals and very sympathetic characters. Definitely loved this one.
So, you give a trigger warning about the MC, but all I've seen so far is a guy standing up for himself rather than just being the usual doormat you see in other games. What exactly am I supposed to be triggered by?
While the story is fantastic, the animations are fluid and great, characters are interesting. This VN has one glaring problem that really irritates me.
Beautiful game, but ai have a inquietude, i play voleyball, and i can saw that in the begining, in the match Wolves vs IDK (i forgot), the spike was weird, 'cause the spike doesn't watch like a real spike, (sorry for my english, i speak spanish, sorry) but in my point of view, that spike was so weird, the animation of the spike, it is not correct, so, like voleyball enjoyer, (its just my opinion) idk if do u understand me. The animation an the history of the characters, its beautiful, i really like it, thanks for this beautifull game. (el saque en el voleyball es diferente a como lo haz animado, me refiero a que si puedes ver en algunos partidos, no saltan con los pies juntos, es fisicamente imposible y raro conseguir el salto deseado en el voleyball) its just my point of view.
Guys this shit is IT, i havent seeing such promesing visual novel in a while. There are only two chapters, and it still manages to show so much potencial. The premice of a broken man trying to put his life back together, after an injured led him down the wrong path, is by itself a deviation of the chosen one/ nice guy syndrome that plagues most visual novels. And the volley aesthetic is also uncommon, which is a plus.
The protagonist isnt just some shallow horny monkey who is after anything that moves, he is a deeply flaud person who just happens to be around horny romantic interesses. The creator even put obviously bad choices at the start to give us an insight on the way the protagonist is thinking, and some of those choices lead to unique bad endings. which is a nice touch. The girls all have distintive personalitys and looks, and most of them seem to also be dealing with personal struggles, that gives layers to their characters and makes them feel alive.
Just taking the writing into account, this would already be a good visual novel, but the renders elevate it to a whole new level. The backgrounds are detailed, with great lighting and characters never standing still. There are models not only for the main cast, but for the background characters as well. Those same models contain such intricated texturing for their skin and such a variety of outfits, that really helps imerse the player on that world.
easily one of my fav AVNs, love it and cannot wait for the next chapter. with how long chapter 2 was, if chap 3 is anywhere near as long (was expecting it to end when the police station happened) then i doubt the release will be anytime soon (sadly) still i cannot wait to play the next chapter love the game, keep healthy!

The song that plays during the cafe apology meeting with Eve. What is it? It's like soft kpop
nvm found it: SRA - truth is
Chapters were surprisingly long, which was a good thing
Dev definitely likes frekkles a lot
Writing is a little bit clumsy here and there, there's a couple crazy lines like the "flirty option" when you meet Lexi for the first time and tell her she owes you a blowjob, left me flabbergasted lmao
MC shit talks himself a lot it gets kind of cringe but other characters do give him a little bit of shit for it so it kinda makes up for it, he gets called edgy a few times and he totally deserves it
Overall it was pretty enjoyable and I'll be waiting for the next updates

一开始玩就停不下来了，总想知道接下来会发生什么，不知不觉就看完了所有内容，非常期待后续更新。

THIS GAME IS

Easily a game I'd recommend to anyone. ANYONE.
PEAK, I almost forget time while playing, the story is pretty attractive.
唯一不在乎性的游戏，剧情和人物塑造太棒了，人物建模也足够精致且各有特点，甚至还有中文，期待下次更
how long until the update
Does wild cats has harem tag?
Just started to play these type of games, by far, this is the one that made me ignore the sexual parts, I actually got immersed to the story before being horny. Just wanted to say, Great fucking game, made me tear up for saki. Thank you for making me cry again after a long time. Saki da best.
If my dad had enough money to buy a condom that day, I wouldn't have been born to play such an amazing game
While waiting for update I recommend Eternum by Caribdis.
https://caribdis.itch.io/eternum
It has more complex gameplay and longer playing hours.
I made sure to finish both game on their latest update. Both of them have well written story and have girls that makes you go crazy .
Hey! i loved the chapters so far, awesome work! is there a discord link that still works? :)

Such an excellent game, the story is still very engaging, hope the next updates will come soon.
There are many issues with the hair in character modelling.
Is there an opportunity for improvement?
很棒的游戏👍🏻
第三章的内容进行的如何了？
毫无疑问，这是一款非常优秀的视觉小说，游戏剧情非常不错。如果要提建议的话，希望让人物建模更精美一些，多一些H场景。
