About Man of Sterling Quality

It is time for everyone on Earth to hear of the good word! And that word is Jim!

Let us carefully examine the life of Jim through the venerable medium known as the VISUAL NOVEL. A visual novel is like a traditional novel in digital form that has music, sounds and pictures. Pictures!!! The player progresses through the story by simply clicking the mouse and revealing subsequent text. In the game, much like in real life right now, some limited interactions are allowed.

The human player can make decisions at certain points in the story and choose one path over another. Just like real life, where one can choose to ignore or heed the parable of Jim. Would you like to know more?

Story



This is the heartwarming story of Booth Preacher Jim, the Man of Sterling Quality.

Jim is a tremendous man who is big and strong and manly. Everyone knows it, even if his critics pretend otherwise. To be completely honest, they are all just jealous and have much wickedness in their evil hearts because they are nowhere near as masculine as Jim. Their small petty minds cannot comprehend Jim's huge heart that is always ready to help people, whether they want it or not.

His booth always appears where it is most needed. Unsuspecting pedestrians and commuters alike benefit from Jim's wise counsel as he screams unspecified sermons at them with a vociferous virile voice.

But his noble routine has been disrupted. An ancient Steam Greenlight game has finally been released from the depths of Early Access and now runs rampant throughout the internet. Anyone unfortunate enough to play 'Death Simulator' will summon forth the mysterious Evil Ghost in seven days... Unfortunately for Evil Ghost, her womanly ways will prove insufficient to overcome the mighty male maestro that is Jim.

Features



  • Mostly linear story with very limited branching paths
  • Most standard Ren'Py functions (save, load, skip, scroll text, hide text, history)
  • A relatively large number of custom art of unspecified taste
  • Basic sounds and music whose volume can be adjusted
  • Estimated reading time: 40 to 60 minutes

Contains



  • Real humans.
  • Natural human conversations.
  • Masculine Dominance.
  • Strong male protagonist. Strong independent men.
  • There are women here. Women!!!
  • Real Life Permadeath. (Discontinued)
  • Weed.

CAUTION



Do not attempt to perform any of the dangerous and dubious actions that Jim and the others perform. For example, a human should avoid any close interactions with crocodiles or hit themselves (or others). The haka is usually performed in a serious fashion and for serious occasions.

><> This felt like it was written by someone on a bad trip or a 12 year old trying their best to be random and quirky. Half the time nothing made sense, the other half of the time the game was trying to be funny but came off more offensive than anything. I played about 20 mins to see if it would get any better and just couldn't justify wasting my time longer then that. <><

Man of Sterling Quality is not a game, it's an incomplete e-book that's been dumped on Steam Early Access masquerading as a game. As a visual/interactive novel, this doesn't feature any notable gameplay, it's just a lot of clicking through badly written dialogue that would never have been accepted or published in print, which poses the question, "How did something this badly written end up on Steam?". When someone hoping to become an author is unable to get published in print, they spend and dump their high school fan-fiction onto Steam, under the guise of a game. This e-book was slapped together with the godawfully bad RenPy Visual Novel/E-Book construction kit, so just like no professional writing took place here, no professional game development took place either, it's just a product of filling out templates in the construction kit. This is some kind of garbage 14 year old highschool social rejects attempt at making a surreal "funny" edgy story, the garbage writing is pure incoherent dribble. The artwork here is terrible, it's some of the most amateurish MS-Paint/Fischer-Prices "Baby's first Wacom tablet" style drawings (I won't deign to call these "illustrations"). It's …

This was one of the worst games I have played, how do these things land on Steam? Half of the game makes zero sense, other half is trying to be funny - but fails.
