VN - Ren'Py - Radiant [v0.6.3] [RK Studios]

I can't really see why this game has this score.
The content is very little, writing is bad and the story make no sense at all.
I guess there is some potential here and there, the renders are ok but in the end, there is a lot of narration to set up a series of events, one less believable than the other.

Radiant has probably the best art direction I've ever seen in a 3d game. The textures and the conforming shapes in addition to the timings used in the animations and scenes are spot on. Yes, there are still a couple expressions that immediately remind me of an Illusion interface; but they're not present long and they seem appropriate, so... not that big a deal.

If I were to complain about anything it would be the hey, this cliffhanger in the story would be a great time for a commercial break/ intermission until next release thing; but the game is young enough in development that I'll forgive that for now. There's actually a good deal of content. It just seems like less because the story arc seems to reset early on, making what comes after take on the role of "now we get to the actual content" when in fact quite a bit was already done.

I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes, even if where we left off see,s to indicate yet another Earth shattering revelation follows shortly.

So... Radiant?!

First and foremost, I apologise for only playing the game now.
I had downloaded before but... something else must have been in the way.

The "plot", amazing storyline with some outstanding turns.
When I was about to say: "Yeah, already know where this is going", Bam! Right hook leaving me dumbfounded.

The graphics, I'm not demanding, but I really do love the renders. I'm glad the characters look genuine (not so easy to find these days), it only makes everything more real.
The scenarios so far are very likeable, some smooth transitions give you a more personal touch and I hope you keep those.

Triplets... yeap, one of those "right hooks" I mentioned before.
It seems a different path can be built depending on your choices, and therefore, affecting the story.
Please do "waste" time in developing their character/reactions/emotions, in the end, the story will make the difference.

Sound, I'm enjoying the songs, please continue to add them depending on the scene if possible, it will create more impact.
Those screeching sounds are cool , the first time used is a clear (not mentioning, it would be a spoiler).

For a first chapter, I was surprised, deceived, amazed and wanting more.
P.S. The ending is a knockout.

Thank you for the game, please continue to develop the story and the rest will happen naturally.

All the best.

This is one of the first Games where I am more interested in the Story than the Gameplay and both are fantastic.

--------------------
5/5 would definetly recommend.

Beautiful CG graphic
Beautiful CG Character
Amazing Storyline so far (make me cries few times while playing it, but I survive)
Overall, it`s just amazing.
Keep up the good work and I`m looking forward to more of this exciting story.

One of the best game around, honestly.
Good graphics, good story so far (I didn't cry, It was the Onions Ninjas), can't wait for the future !
If you need help, I can let my PC render images/animations, I don't use it much these days

One of the very few patreons that I consider supporting, I'm gonna wait the next update
(Drop this and I'm gonna kill you, I swear)

Just finished playing Radiant and man i must say i am going to love it even more in future updates. I really liked your renders and how you guys made the reflections even on the eyes plus story wise feels like a movie (if it makes any sense) !!
I must say, although it might sound lame , i found my self in tears when the MC read the letter from Gracie because i ve lost 2 dear people of my life to cancer!

Anyhow keep up the good work and for sure i am going to become a patron as soon as i start working again!

This has awesome character renders and a very well written story. Honestly it is to good because I feel it so much that my depresion is comming back from it. Because of this I have to take away one star because there is a warning missing, that you should only play it with good mental health.

I just started playing through Radiant last night, and was hooked from the opening scenes.
Visually, the game is stunning, and the storytelling is masterfully done.

I'd personally consider this game to be among the best visual novels that I've played, even compared to such titles as Fate/Stay Night and Utawarerumono.

I usually look for the free stuff but this was so good I subscribed to his Patreon. The story telling gets you hooked. The characters have meaning and the detail going into this is fantastic. I would highly recommend this game to anyone.

I love it so pretty with a great and very unique story and I really can not wait for more content and updates..So far I feel I understand where this is going and it will pain me to wait,but i must to see where the story goes from here <3

I know, it's in a very early stage and not much content is to be seen, but HOLY SHIT this is well made!

The graphics are simply beautiful and the story (so far) is one of the best I've seen here. I have no idea how they did it, but I was ACTUALLY sad when MC read Gracies letter! I downloaded this for the porn, not for the feels dammit! I've known about this character for maybe 20 minutes at that point, but the way this story is delivered just makes it feel realistic. This is just fleshed out to perfection.

If they keep this up, this might be the game because of which I publicly admit supporting games like these on Patreon.

the first porn game i went for the porn and stayed for the plot, don't get me wrong the sex part is also perfect tho in0.1.2 the only sex part is only one scene.
can't wait for this game to develop and show me some more action

Only in the early stages of its development, and yet Radiant is already one of the most memorable, beautiful games I've come across. Besides the graphical beauty of the girls, the game has a genuinely touching story sure to draw anyone with a romantic inclination in. The storywriting is the kind of good where you could come with the intention of playing an erotic game, but end up forgetting about that and just simply enjoying the writing, the characters and the emotional journey of it all. I can't wait to see more from this game in the future - it'll be well worth the wait.

I remember playing this the day ver 0.1 was released, and I was positive I had left a review or written something in the thread. Rather annoyed that I didn't.

I'm excited. I am honestly and genuinely excited, to see how this develops.

I like the models, the writing is decent (I won't say perfect, but I don't cringe, either. It seems believable dialog, and gets the story and the emotions conveyed well).

I like the multiple paths, and the fact that it doesn't seem to lock you into one after a few choices, but rather has a variety of ways for things to unfold.

None of the "drama" seems unrealistic to me, though as in most games, it is exaggerated.

I usually like to let games stew for a while, and not download every new version. That way, when I return to them, there is a lot more content. I don't think I'll hold out with this one. The day I see 0.2 is out, I plan to download it and continue the story.

It is a very well written story with beautiful renders. I realy love the thoughts and efford that was put in here as well. however I sadly had to stop at some point in the start because:


With that said, you do amazing work so far, please keep going with your gameproject, it is a piece of art people will fall in love with.

Update Edit: I tryed again after nearly 1 1/2 years - here is what I have to say:

Damn you Dev's! I wanted to fap not to cry!

Jokes aside - I realy love the story and direction it takes so far. Renders look good, story is engaging, even if I first was a little confused and a bit annoyed in the beginning, with all the problems going on.

It was realy heavie to take all this shit in at once - but what can I say? Life sometimes realy is a bitch like that and it reminds me, that even if I have a lot of shit going on in my life myself - I still can be happy, because it could be even worse.

So for now 5/5 - keep it up guys!

V0.1.2
This game has a lot of potential. I was impressed about the background story, very touching and well written.
In this version there are few options but this is just the beginning. In addition the Renders are stunning.
I'm very sure this game is going to be a Smash Hit.

Amazing story
I'm a sucker for a good story and even as short as this is for now its got a freaking AMAZING story

choices
your choices impact both your mentality and the mentality of the girls in the game there is a lot of potential with that system and I look forward to seeing how it plays out

1.Beautiful models
2. Great renders

4.Unexpecteddrama,
5.Soothing audio
6.Proper language and use of grammar.
