Is the only content currently just the character customization? I've been walking around trying to find the npc from the images with no luck.

Yup... It's a POC (proof of concept) / tech demo. NOT a v0.1 release. At least rename it to v0.0.1 or something. Versioning is not that complicated: v<major release number>.<minor release number>.<latest bug fixed/optimized release>

If you've had read the very first comment beneath the OP, you'd know that there's no content except the character customization and the one open map where you can walk around.

"Versioning is not that complicated" -- and if the developer decides to make it a 0.1 version, it's just that: version 0.1. Who are we to tell someone on how to do the versioning of their own software?

Also, speaking as someone who has been developing software myself: maybe the versions leading up to 0.1 were the internal development versions not meant for (public) release (therefore the MAJOR and MINOR release number = 0), and those were called 0.0.1, 0.0.2 and so on. And now, for the first public RELEASE they increased the MINOR release number from 0 to 1 -- that sound absolutely right and reasonable to me.

Yes, absolutely. You don't have to have a dick as the player, and none of the NPCs have to have dicks if you don't want. However, I do intend to construct the NPCs in such a way that, if you want all of them to have dicks, you can do that too (I've recently revamped the NPC creation process which is why there are currently no NPCs in the game, but it should allow for much faster creation).
So theoretically, and with absolutely no bias at all we could create a world where everyone else is a horny futa? Or that we are a futa in a world full of women? Asking for a friend....:)

Also, to all those who have the negative vibes, and the "OH, Unreal 5 Engine, How uninspiring.", "OH, Unreal Engine 5, Wait, no it's not.", and "OH, Unreal Engine 5. Welp, this is gonna fail" Attitudes:

It is just as Guy in Cognito said. This is all by one single developer, who, mind you, is doing this all on his spare time. The man has to pay bills, keep a roof over his head, and everything else, while doing all of this. Personally, I see no problem with it, because I know the term "Slow, and steady wins the race.".

But let me back up a bit, and explain how important that term is.

in the past years, 3 games that have severely disappointed us are Assassins Creed: Unity, Fallout 76, and Cyberpunk 2077. The reason for this? THEY WERE RUSHED. Crunch times occurred. The fan base impatient, and in the end, the conclusion, a disaster. Similar to how you all are clamoring. You may not mean to sound that way, and some of you aren't, as instead, you say it will fail because of other reasons, but from the outside looking in, that's how the majority of it is depicted to me.

I mean, come on, the post was LITERALLY just around yesterday, and already, the disinterest is pouring out the waterworks. Moreover, it is a tech demo, so it should be taken with a grain of salt, ESPECIALLY since the developer has been here for 3 years. As one other commentor here had very aptly put it, "Let the man cook!"!

Another thing that person had very aptly said: What are any of you contributing? Aside from giving atleast SOME support via words of encouragement, or feedback, you literally have nothing to lose if it fails.

Let me put it in a more accurate way:

I cannot help the man, cause I don't have any skills to developing things on this engine. or any engine, for that matter, though if I could, I would. That said, I donated to offer my form of support, because 1: The amount is nothing to me at the moment, and 2: Because I want to help out, somehow. Now granted, I can imagine that the majority of ya don't want to donate. Understandable.

Here's the thing, though.

Some of you may have skills pertaining to Unreal Engine. Some of you know what it take to make a game like this atleast good.

Are you gonna give the man your insight, or help?

Are you going to try to help him develop the game with your own skills, if you have skills pertaining to this?

That's the deciding factor here.

To clarify, I am not attempting to offend, or slander you all, and if I have, I apologize. I am merely saying that if you've got nothing encouraging to say to drive the man, when you more or less have nothing to lose, or can't give him constructive criticism to help fix and improve its progress, you're better off not saying anything, at all.

" Do unto others as they would do unto you." I feel is an appropriate phrase to use here. It may seem lame, but it does fit this situation, nicely:

If you give negative opinions, expect negativity back.

Well, I plan to add male characters too, but it is my intention allow for switching between male/female gens for all female NPCs as can be done in the character creator. So if you want all the female characters in the game to be horny futas you can do that :cool:

Sad to see that there are no piercings and/or tats. Besides this it looks pretty good.
Working on the slot equip logic for piercings. It's much easier than clothing though since less needs to be taken into consideration as far as clipping. Tats are on the way as well, already have the core material logic done and the menu for it. Just need to fill them out :D

if the developer decides to make it a 0.1 version, it's just that: version 0.1
But it's not though... version 0.1 indicates that there is at lease some content, something to do AFTER you start playing. The creator already said it's a tech demo. Therefore it should be separate from versioning. A demo can change drastically or not even be used later.

speaking as someone who has been developing software myself: maybe the versions leading up to 0.1 were the internal development versions not meant for (public) release (therefore the MAJOR and MINOR release number = 0), and those were called 0.0.1, 0.0.2 and so on. And now, for the first public RELEASE
You are aware then of ALPHA and BETA releases, right? Alpha releases are made for internal staff to test if everything is okay in a controlled environment. Beta releases are made for a wider range of selected people so they can test it too in an uncontrolled environment and are able to give detailed feedback. This is why you can see alpha and beta in some games here.

Yes, I know. It's stupid to argue about this here. My point is - it would be clearer if this was simply named tech demo in the title and not v0.1 since it doesn't have any real content.

As for feedback, here's a bit from me:
If you play as a futa and press I (or L?, not sure really) the penis becomes 2 feet long. If you press the other button it goes back to the size you originally set. One of those buttons also removes the MC's clothes and you can't get dressed again.

Suggestion: turn on the lights in neighboring rooms to the one you're in to make the transition between them smoother.

Thanks, those are leftover debug hotkeys that need to be removed from packaged build. I'll add it to the list I'm keeping of things people have said in the thread.

Unfortunately due to the way Lumen works even a few extra lights enabled drastically increases the light bounces and shadow calculations and thus decreases performance. I'm thinking about adding some additional options for changing GI that would allow for Lumen to be disabled, which would mean no global illumination but should provide much better performance on low end hardware. Once that's added I'll think about enabling additional lights.

PLZ, made support to dx11 or make setting for RT(off default). AMD cards have problem with dx12 on UE5.
AFAIK some features this game uses do require DX12 -- and there also seems to be an issue with the "Ray Traced Shadows" on (some) AMD cards. This is already a known issue.
