Ren'Py - The Null Hypothesis [v0.7b] [Ron Chon]

Excellent game, tons of thought out dialogue and character interactions. Makes you work for the relationship building and... other things you're here for.

Clear communication from the devs has brought together a large fan following (check out the discord!!!), and tons of excitement about this game. I think this game is going places.

This is a high quality piece of work that merits it's high rating, I can't believe it's a renpy game. Dating feels right, the progression/grind feels adequate, the writing feels alive, the sexual content is quality and the LIs are sexy and true to their inspiration. I give four stars for that.

However, the only thing that keeps me from giving all five stars, is my personal desire for more taboo fetish content that is not and will not(?) be included such as: NTR/NTS/NTI, semen addiction, exhibitionism, blackmail, cum fetish, breeding, free use, CNC, etc.

now if you're not interested in these more taboo fetishes as a more vanilla kind of feller, this can be your five star game. and even if it's not mine, I'm still sticking around because god damn a man can dream for The Fetish Fulfillment Center to deliver one day!

-Story
5/5 - for a porn game, this is beyond my expectation. this is how the game should be done. the game took the main story itself seriously (imo) it have clear guide inside the game and does provide tons of comic materials. for the side story like dating in all kind of scenario, it also well made and full of choices. it doesn't feel weird or forced. the dynamic with everyone is great. this isn't a porn parody game, this is "the game" with uncensored dating sim as a bonus. took me about 20 hours (2-3 days) of playtime from new game start to reach latest content in this update without skipping any story like i did in most porn game.
-mechanic, Arts, QoL, Misc.
4/5 - dating mechanic and relationship is about expected, i've played something similar before and it's about on-par or better even.
Clothing are really good and full of choices. i love that without MC intervention, all NPCs behave like a believeable person rotating clothings as a person should and i still hope it gets more as the time goes on.
Arts threw me off a little bit because of Ai around the internet but upon closer look, it's not bad at all. it's a comic style of art and i give it near perfect score (whatever that means.)
QoL easy map to navigate, built-in guide and walkthrough, easy money grind, -1 for exp scaling it just felt slow and 'clunky'? all skills and ability need points and if not for achievement shop, i'll have to grind more than i would enjoy the game itself.
Overall
-i forgot to fap :I-
seriously, this isn't a normal porn game. it's a legit good VN in comic style like "i wish i knew about this sooner" kind of thing.
i came here expect barebone fapping experience but came back out with that drug addiction.
see you in the next update! i love this game and wish for the best for the team!

Characters actually have personality, the art is beautiful, the story is engaging, it's the first time I don't want to skip it.

Deserves to be way more known, this could become a classic of the genre. I'll even say it has the potential to be one of the best games I've seen on this site, in my opinion.

easily one of the best adult dating sims ive played. download the cheat mod for a smoother experience though.

great art, great interactivity, good characters, good story.

minor downside is that you can really only go down one route and that is to be nice. it is minor because the game leans into this but i would personally like to see more routes. ntr/cheating/dickish main character/the works.

It´s okay.

Story isn´t amazing but good enough.

Music is kinda annoying.

Art is good.

Sex scenes are okay.

Characters are fine.

But the UI and wardrobe and everything, is just too much and it feels very janky.

I would recommend it but it wasn´t for me.

If you like 2d games based on any popular movie universe, you should definitely try this game.

Great graphics, a breath of fresh air in a sea of ai cg. Thoughtful dialogs that you believe.

I really hope that the author will have the strength to realize all his ideas to the end, this game really deserves to be completed

One of the rare moment I care about the characters in a porn games. Pretty well written, and sometimes relate to real life, these characters feels so real its so wrong being in a porn game lmao.

The gameplay is pretty simple, level up and earn moolah by doing some activity for more gift, clotches, skill, etc. Keeping watch the love and trust score the girls you want to woo. But, I wish there's some mini games (other than the sex thingy) because some activity is feels taking for a granted. but i'm just nitpicking. the devs know more what they want.

The MC is not a creep and actually a great guy, but because I choose to be good ( dont know about another route tho) and pretty interesting because of his power he has. By the way, MC is pretty customizable, you can be normal human or an elf, a blue guy, a green guy, hell, you can be a Dragon of Dojima. that's enough for me to put this on my top 10.

TL;DR: well written story with pretty artstyle and interesting MC and the characters.

The developers have constantly kept the community updated about the progress of the game. If there is ever an issue or criticism brought up, the developers always take a fair look at what is said. For what it's worth, the game has also made incredible progress the likes of which is rarely seen on this site or any other. Very nice people.

This thing's probably an art-piece, try it yourself.

Real slow burn, lots of texts to go through in the early parts, but all intriguing and definitely worth it. Don't expect the usual jump, pump, and dump procession (there's another one for that).

Genuinely enjoyed the game, probably my top 5 now. Excited to see what the devs will bring.

The art kinda put me off at the start. I was an idiot for not giving this a chance back then.

I mean, I am still an idiot, but don't make the same mistake I made.

Also, go ahead and study the Blade.

This will most likely be the only thread i rate, and with good reason, the game is a master class in how to design a sand box sex game.
Game devs constantly give updates and are hard at work, and it shows on their patreon.
I however have but a single complaint, the game is grindy, too much for it's own good.

Great game, keep it up. Love the outfit customization and the trust mechanic. Could use a bit more explanation on how some things work but figured it out eventually. Sorry it's pretty good, a bit more of a grind than I like but still fun

Possibly one of my favorite H-games. Cant wait for them to implement more chapters. Theres already a good chunk of content, and when they begin to bring chapter 2 into fruition, I will definitely support them financially

Perfect!!, i'm surprised by how many mechanics is in this game, really good and cool, i like how deep you can get with the characters, and the need to have a lot of trust with them to be allowed to date more at same time, makes it even deeper, and not just a non-sense prota who goes there and fuck everyone not showing love or something

Games inspired by existing IPs are pretty much all hit-or-miss. This one is 100% a hit. The writing impeccably mirrors what you'd expect from a great serious run of X-men. The characters are true to their comic versions without being caricatures or overexaggerated. It pulls from the deep lore and the whole style just works. My only real issue with the game is that the XP part is grindy. Spamming Class and studying every second possible to get what feels like 5% of xp per day at level 6 is ridiculous. Now, this might just be because we're only on Chapter 1 and more will come to make it make sense, but as it stands it really demands cheats.

The main issue is the artstyle. It's horrible, it's uncanny and it somehow manages to be inconsistent. The sex scenes are nothing compared to the original game, close to zero animations and very low variety. It's just a model standing still most of the times, that's it, that's the game. Also it's very grindy and the payoff is so painfully mid it's kinda insulting. 3 stars just because this game tries something new and not just a copy of the original, the dev seems to be passionate about this project and we might get enough updates for it to be playable instead of another abandoned game. Give it at least a year or two befory trying it out, if you can look past those horrendously looking characters that is. Creepy.

If a marvel writer somehow stumbles on this little gem i am willing to bet they are gonna plagiarize it to hell and back lol , the team clearly cares , consistent updates , bug fixes and improvements are a clear sign of that. A lot of effort has been put into this from the characters to the scenarios with good writing to support it which is something many devs tend to forget when designing a visual novel ( shocking right )

This is definitely a must play in my humble opinion especially for fans of the xmen , these guys respect the source material much more than some of the people working at marvel

In short; Even It's not the best visual novel, but it's the best visual novel game.

First of all, some of the most striking features of the game are;

probably the best art design on the site really everything looks stunning , interactivity and the fact that it is very enjoyable to interact with girls and gives a real "game" feel. One feature I would like to highlight is that the expressions and postures of the characters generally have a very positive effect on the game, and the expressions and movements of the characters, which change according to your interactions, have a very positive effect on the game in terms of interactivity. .

The characters feel really good and genuine especially rogue , and even though it's a parody game, it didn't make me feel left out at all, even though I knew nothing about X-men other than Wolverine and Cool SR-71 they got.

Well only thing I didnt like was generall sound design in common spaces, it bit to much rock for chilly atmosphere, like you dont engage some sort of super combat all times . General sound design and musics could use a improvement

in conclusion, after playing many games, this is one of the rare games that makes me wish there were more games like this and make me really want to support the developer. Looking forward to its development.

Love the art style and the scenes. with the addition of the new "achievement shop," I think it smooths out the game even more with less and less grinding

I don't have many complaints for me to drop a star for the review of the game. I do wish we could move forward with Chapter 2 and THEN we head back to redo some art fixes later with the current approach of the game development.

I don't know who "Dazzler" is but I guess that's on me lol
