v0.02d
Lexicon = So a lot of people who were not really into racing or motorsport in general were kinda thrown off by the technical terms throwed around, and following a suggestion from the user BlackRing I decided to implement this feature. It's just a way that I can offer more insight in a surface level without having to resort to audience surrogates in story, or overexposition.
Choices = Well this is the main feature of this update. Choices will become a big part of the game; I'll add a screen in game where you can see more information about it. They work in a pretty simple manner. (I already explained this in previous posts, but I'll do it again, you can skip this if you already know, nothing changed).
There're 6 types of choices, "World Perception" has 3 types and "Girls Perception" has 3 other types, the combination of the highest score of each one will give the MC his Personality. The world/girls will react to his current personality, but also every choice has a flag that may impact if you said something at a certain point, independent if you are in a personality type or not.
You don't have to worry about getting locked out of a path based on these choices, they will however, impact how the world/girls react to you. Girl paths will have their own major choice moments. Why? Because I, as a player would like to respond the way a feel like is the best for each situation without getting worried about if the girl, I like in the game will be locked out or not. What I'm trying to do is take out the onus to game the system from the player and give more work to me, because now the girl has to react to your chosen personality, and that can be very different from each other. I firmly believe this will make for a more enjoyable experience overall. The ONLY caveat is for a specific path with a specific girl, and I think all the choices are pretty obvious.
The choices are compounding, so as the game goes on if you pick more of the same style it will start to be hard to move away from it. It's like this to make sense in its own world. If the MC keeps picking the snarky/confrontational response over and over, he will be known as someone that often gives those kinds of responses. It will, however, not take away your ability to be serious when you want to be.
The future "Personality" screen will give more insight on what's going on, but since this is a major development, I didn't want to start working on it now and postpone the release for more time.
Phone: I did a bit of an overhaul on the phone so other characters can talk between each other, the previous version didn't have that, and I upgraded its graphics. I don't plan to add more functionalities to it; I think this is enough to convey what it needs to convey.
Main Menu music was upgraded.
Ambience volume was properly implemented (now it has a use!)
The timing sheet was updated to reflect the name you picked.
Exe Icon now works (Thanks nuii)
(If I remember something more I'll edit this post)
Version 0.01a
- This is the first public release.
OK honestly after all the popular overrated games end this shit will be at the very least top 2 Whoever tf made dis fucking game is aizen level genius cuz its basically like a 4.97-4.99/5 game. Starts off with mfing boruto like "begining after the end " start that makes extra aware ppl scared of whether or not he died and gets assassinated 4 corrupting the duchess and cucking her nepocuckbaby cucks followers. 4 Anyways after that neutral yet unique start well it's peak since even the dev is tired of me overglazing. 2 explain further without annoying ppl. Emma is a ride or die best girl. Unfortunately I'm playing a brasilia playboy mc cuz nice guys finish last in f1 races and mc needs 2 become a corrupt rich anti hero that gets all the girls. Brad is basically a more vanilla killian from another goated game (PC). Hopefully this doesn't get abandoned so it can surpass its competition unless it's all according 2 keikaku. Lucca is a flawed chad but still a chad nevertheless so who tf gives a shit. Iike don't fuckin pretend u wouldn't be like him if u were living his mfn fn lmao broskis. Emma reminds me of a potential route of well let's just say she's a mix of common character archetypes but let's jus say she reminds me of a certain currently emotionless toddler that's the daughter of a king of contract killing ppl. Anyways every1 else is aight as well. Anyways the game is peak. I respect the ai genius with an ai family 4 making dis gem cuz it could easily jus be a good, full of sex porn game but instead it's a masterpiece in the making. Anyways yeah. Dev probably needs money so rich sponsors pay the dev and don't rip him off so that the game doesn't get abandoned. Thanks Love and peace 2 prevent avn apocalypse from the dev dropping the game like redmyst'ass bitches and broskis (ladies and gentlemen don't count on a porn site) and especially aizen ai dev Goodbye mwah* and goodnight bang* Happy new year 2 yall too.
The whole F1 storyline is what brought me in. Story is well written so far and the renders look good. The characters development is coming along well and I appreciate the the depths of their individual stories.Can't wait til the next release. Great job.
This might be the most well-polished opening chapter I've ever read from this site. Super engaging and most of the shots are so well composed. It's honestly almost a waste for this to be made in DAZ,. Can't wait for more updates to come.
Ayo what??? This shit was so sus based on lack of tags but oh boy.....does this deliver. O' Lord.. also, car sound make my pp go brrrr...... Concept : kart-racer who works hard and makes it to big races with hardships and support from friends. Bunch of shady shit going on in background. Cars go brrrrrr...... Disclaimer : if you are looking to nut, look away cuz there's no h-scenes yet. If you are looking for amazing F1 stuff and cArs and sounds, and look at beautiful tits this game's got it. Pros : Sooo good writing and narration along with breathtaking visuals. The angles for some scenes really add to closeness and immersion. Just wild. Banging good car racing animations. Cars look sexy af. Ngl car sounds are cherry on top. like legit you can hear the doppler effect during animations so goood. So sooooo good looking LIs with normal body proportion. Like the tits look so natural and hot. Also dem asses. Cons : Not a con for me but by lack of tags you can guess there's not much here in terms of penis/vag stuff. Romance is brewing and I'm all for this pace. Verdict : abso-fucking-lutely pickiity this piece up. Currently v0.02d is 6hrs or so for me to read. Absolute cinema.
Formula Zero [v0.02d] So far 5/5 To be honest, I like the story and the racing concept , you can see it has potential, and the story it is quite unique in it's own ways, even if has some quite common tropes, but MC with a tragic backstory and life struggles are quite immersive. If you liked the F1 Movie, this game provides a bit a similar vibe, I noticed the technical terms, they go above my head but still like that the DEV has proper knowledge on the subject. On the adult part, well so far mostly teasing, some nude some half dressed, clearly a slow burn, but hey I expect some floodgates to open at some point. It has great potential hence the 5/5 rating, hope DEV keeps up the quality.
This is clearly an above average VN. The dev is obviously passionate about racing and about this story. It is well written, engaging, and the racing animation is fantastic. There are some common AVN tropes we see in so many of these. The MC with the tragic backstory Some kind of mystery that has prevented him from succeeding, The token lifelong best friend of the opposite sex The bully from HS still in the picture The angsty tattood chick with an attitude. A redhead A super smart, hot chick who is shy and resevered I also don't like a lot of the renders. They are too dark, which seems to be a silly trend with developers. They are supposed to be "artsy" I guess and some of them work, like the bar scene with Grace or the restaurant with Yuki, but there are just too many dark scenes that don't make sense. Don't get me wrong, there are a ton of fantastic renders as the dev is talented, but the darks ones take me out of the story. But these are just ticky tack complaints as the AVN is really well done. The story is fullyfleshed out, the characters all seem to have a solid backstory and the research the dev has done on racing just adds to the realism of the story. I do worry there are going to be way too many LIs, but I am still invested in the story and am looking forward to seeing the next version. This is one you should all download and at least give it a try. It's really good.
An excellent start with a good story but it may be a hard read for some where the racing action is much more interesting than the bedroom action. There's an excellent recreation of parts of the Hockenheim Circuit with some lovely animations. There's also some pretty decent off track ones in a Supra early on too, so I'm looking forward to seeing the Nordschleife, racing for fun in real cars, in the next update. Will the dev go for a typical Nordschleife, quick rain storm and a crash, drama? a death? Or just stick with a fun time. Hopefully the friendship between the three drivers develops too, as they spend more time off track having fun, as they are a nice mix of characters that could be good friends who support each other on and off the track. The racing side is a nice blend of fantasy and reality that stays on the right side of realistic, with the cars, testing, times, data and track conditions, which is great to see. A big downside is the confusing relationships in general; but particularly with Emma. The big non-reveal being that they are basically brother and sister - Emma's Mom is the MC's legal guardian. This should have been explained much earlier but the dev clearly wanted to make a thing out of their relationship which was a complete waste of time, when we could have been focused on other characters. Relationships and scenes with women is what this is really lacking so far. There was the perfect opportunity for a scene with Yuki, the chef in the kitchen, when she stayed over that was missed. Even if the dev wanted a slow burn with the LI's for a long term relationship goal, it would have been nice to be offered at least one scene with a side girl at the track, the hotel or the bar but it's all too moody, tentative and centred on Emma. If the dev wanted to AVN up it a little bit, the MC could have asked for help from new sponsors in his YouTube interview for anyone to help him fill up his overalls with new logos. They are desperate for money and 50k per sponsor to pay off the £750k they need to finish the season and stay away from 'bad' agents. He could do some basic adverts with some hot models and have some side girl one off 'opportunities' after the advert. Some controversial advertisers could come in such a porn sponsor with a couple of pornstars attached or a lingerie/bikini company or an Only Fans girl looking for some fun. Motorsports, sex and hot women have always gone hand in hand but there aren't many groupies/hangers-on around yet. Finally, why is an a supposed star singer, Grace wasting time in Germany? Surely she has a schedule. Where's her manager? This isn't really explained either. Manual montages - Thank you dev! Looking forward to the next one and finally having the option of some fun one night stands please, not more wasted time in bed with Emma and the bad dreams - this is moody and atmospheric yes but not hot and AVN fun.
love the Game so far... The story really Good... character's all have there own Content To add to the game.... the music is very well placed with perfected songs for the mood .... thank you for making the Game so far ... Hope to play more...
1. Very high effort game 2. Great Writing 3. High quality renders 4. Amazing music -- the dev has great taste in music, song choice, and placement 5. Immersive An overall very premium experience with a lot of work put into it. It's a slow burn game so don't expect sex scenes right away. I think it's very commendable for a western dev to try and deliver story first over littering their game with random sex scenes, they're just laying out the common route right now.
A very promising game, a commendable part of the new generation of AVNs. Pros: 1) An interesting and different story. 2) Good writing. 3) Very good visuals. 4) Mostly likeable girls. Everyone loves Emma already . 5) Roleplay options promise the ability to customize our MC further down the line. Cons: 1) No true sex scenes so far. 2) The whole story and the main intrigue are still unclear to me. We're introduced to a number of major players in the sport, but I cannot quite grasp how exactly (and if) they're all connected to each other and whether they play a part in the MC's past. 3) The MC is a bit too perfect. Everyone not from Apex Team is a huge fan of his, and he succeeds at whatever he does. I think the dev should introduce something the MC is actually bad at and play it for laughs (as playing it for drama would be lame). So, 4 stars for now. While what's here is really good, how the dev manages the sex scenes and the plot in its entirety remains to be seen.
So far, this is great. Interesting story with a good setup and a wide range of characters. I don't find most of the LIs wildly attractive (emma and Leah excepted), but everyone's written well enough to be compelling imo. (Yuki, for example, is not particularly attractive to me, at least in her uniform, but she's enough of a sweetheart I could still see romancing her.) I like the dev's idea of some choices defining your character's personality and separate from major choices that are LI path specific, and the racing backdrop gives a good structure for what will hopefully be a long and eventful game. Some of the renders near the end are a bit grainy, but the level o f detail in general is great. And I really like the ability to set montages to auto vs. manual too; there's nothing more annoying than having a forced montage that you have to wait to progress at its speed rather than yourown. I might suggest making that a one-time toggle in the options though. Finally, a few issues with the text, where there are two different placeholders that never got replaced with the actual places or names, but for the most part, these first two releases are very, very clean.
I think the Story so far is really good... the Dev definitely knows the Formula Circus and terms... Hockenheim Ring looked good and they are implying to go to the legendary Nürburg Ring next, can't wait how that'll look. Also the Story about the MC and all the so far known Women is good. I like that the Girls got there own problems and struggle. Be it his long Time Friend (Almost like a Step-Sister / Adoptive-Sister - but thankfully not, so no "incest" in that part) who now starts to see that she got real "feelings" to the MC. Or the troubled Female Team Mate, that is in a Family Fight with her corrupt Father and can't keep connected with her little Sister thanks to him. Or we have the "Singer / Star" that also seems to have build feelings toward the MC, having trouble finding inspiration to write her new Album or Songs in general. There are more Girls that are quite mysterious for now, like the "Princess" (or what she is called) that also seem to know the MC from her Past... or the Mechanic that feels insecure around People but feels save and secure around the MC, not having her typical problems talking to People with him. The "Reporter" Couple of Girls, the PR Manager Woman... so many good Characters that got at least some background Story already. And then there is the last Girl that works for this A-Head Promoter or what he was, who treated that Girl like shit from the beginning we seen him and her. (I smell an ally in her later on.) Well, that's how much I remember right now and I really liked the Game - can't wait for the next Update, definitely something different then the usual AVNs I have seen lately.
The potential to become one the best game on the site. High effort renders and scenes. Its been a while since i did found a game that does not make me skip all the dialogues. We still not sure of what the sex scenes will look like but i'm sure it will follow the same quality
Where to begin with. My rating 1/5 - dissapointment. After downloading 5+ gigabytes, expected many things but not a complete lack of a single H action. We are on the hentai/adult games forum. It is normal to expect from demo/alpha game version, at least 1-2-3 H-scenes. Only based on that it is possible to make a review and grade the game. How could you put 4/5 stars to a game that has shown none of it? There are plenty of examples, of authors who cucked followers and players, without showing a single H-scene for years, or when they did one it was terrible bland and lacking any appeal. H-Scenes - score zero As a VN it fails as well - it gives a lot of confusing and meaningless choices, ideally you want to have few choices but make them actually matter. (twist the story, select plot line, select heroine, refuse heroine, chose another heroine, anything that matters). Here, the player is given a choice to talk confidently, or talk meekly, to be flirty, or be arrogant. Like no real choice at all. Meaningless variation of few lines of texts. These break immersion, character jumping from confident to meakly to flirty to cowardly to arrogant is just not the way the stories should be written.
+ Emma + renders + music + MC is ok, a bit dull but not a total loser or soyboy + interesting story if you are into F1/racing stuff.. -..but if you are not then it could be very boring - no lewd scenes - no relationship development. MC doesn't show any interest in girls or even want to pursue them Overrated avn, after almost year I expected more. In the current state 3 stars
Seems good so far, will have to wait for further content to really see how well the story comes together though. No scenes yet as of 0.02c, but that's fine by me, the more real the story feels the better.
VER 0.02c Overall: 2/5 Reason: As a player I didn't feel involved in the story This was a tough one to get through. I believe that this has the ideas and theme to be a captivating AVN about F1 and racing, but sadly it misses the mark in being both a AVN and a Visual Novel. Why? I don't feel involved in the story. I am a spectator. The reason has a lot to do with the introduction of the game. I am introduced to the couple's relationship I have no connection nor prior knowledge about. The game opens with a couple already deep in conflict. The tension at the start feels very shallow, since I have no prior knowledge, I just don't care about their situation. I am just inserted into this relationship. I don't feel like I'm the MC... it just feels like a separate character that I get to name and supposedly it becomes the MC. Sure, there are choices... but they don't feel like choices that I feel have weight or impact because I don't feel like the MC. Adding to the poor writing, the renders feel flat and unfinished. The Daz models look like plastic dolls that have little to no facial expressions which made it harder to be invested in this "game". Further, the lack of sexual content will only push away newer players from playing this game. Even other slow burners drop "subtle hints" to make players feel like there is a spark with any of the LI's. This game nada. With the state of the game right now it doesn't feel like there would be any content either. If they were to be added it would just be wrong. There's no emotional investment, no buildup, no real feelings. Safe to say the game will have no real development since the formula was zero from the start.
v0.02c As a story about racing and relationships, I could see this as 5 star game. As a AVN with main goal to get our dicks hard, 2 stars. I have followed F1, played racing games with my wheel etc, but I am not a racing fanatic. With that, the story does focus way too much on the racing. There is some regular human interactions, but the girls I was interested had very little content. Whole atmosphere is very... normal. Little too slow and boring for me. Conversation options were rare and not that fun. I did not counter any sexual content. There was few naked pictures of showering women. But those were about women with young/slim/toned bodies, not my thing. Visual quality is good and artistic style is great, so I have high hopes that future content will have more for us regular wankers. For now, it was not worth playing.
The only reason this game isn't 5 stars is that as of yet (version 0.02c) it doesn't have as much content as I'd like. It's very good. High quality renders, I like what we've seen from all of the major characters so far. I will definitely be keeping up with this game, the dev has me hooked pretty good.
V.0.02c best part of a year since the first release and i gave it a go. there is much here to point out. some good some not even clo9se to good. you decide which is which. i will try not to spoil it. the plot is obviously up and coming racing driver. no suspense as it is laid out right from the start in a 'back then' way. this is the hook. you either want to see the journey or quit now as the adult side of things is so far back row as to be in the vehicle behind. the writing is grumble aplenty about our own alleged top motorsport to be, at times, almost like reading someone's soapboxing, yet adult enough to be an easy read and naturally flowing without thinking the writer needs to actually read a real book, like many other VN's here. Visually this is all pretty looks, which is what most of us want from our break in reality. why some want realism in their escapism is anyone's guess but when i fantasise i visualise the pretty people, not the ones who look like sand is a moisturiser. but there are also faults here and there... one very obvious one is the devs love of the montage. overkill is a word that not only pops to mind but practically jumps up and down in lead boots on my thought processors. another would be the use of video game footage for animations. here is a giant opening for the dev to get boned by some very big legal teams, not only by the video game developer but moreso by those big legal teams at some very well known firms whose names don those sponsorship boards IN those animations. not sure repercussions were thought out but here no one wants to see that orange tag. way less an issue if no funding has ever been sought but... all in all it is just starting and is essentially just warming up the tyres before it really starts (see what i did there?) but the downside, at least for me, is that it is still warming up the tyres before it really starts. i am not hooked at all. i may have gotten through this current content but i read/see nothing to excite me to return. nudity is not new and not a fan of the sport any more than i am any other. my best one word summary? it's "nice" sorry dev
