I'm not 100% sure. Did Patreon really buy F95zone, or is that an April Fools joke?

It almost made me spill my morning coffee - until I realized what date it was....
Game of Hearts Ch4 part 2 is out and once again i wish they have far more story than they have sex-related choices. They're good with their words, i just want to read their story instead of reading 90% of scenes and less than 10% of story progress
Yes it was Zero End i was thinking of.
Thank's for reminding me!

A new episode of A Shot in The Dark is out. This game, much like Summer Heat leaves me greatly conflicted. On one hand, the main plot thread is getting kind of interesting, and some love interests are fairly well written (nothing groundbreaking on the level of something like Strangers on Paper, but hey, I'd give them B+ compared to most other games here) but others are just the most egregious piles of porny nonsense you have ever seen.
With the steam release devs revamped the UI and general production value without taking years to remaster the entire thing which I find very commendable and similarly to Summer Heat it's one of the best produced games out there. Also, looking at their previous game that had no plot, and seeing the progression I'm holding out hope that their next game might be actually story focused!

You might be surprised, but having a sex life outside these games is very much normal adult story writing and also a testament the mind of the writer is not stuck in the confines of school projects where they are too polite to make any emotional impact strike through the plot.
It might strike you as odd, but having a healthy sex life with your spouse or signifficant other is not back seat writing. Showing one sided traits of the vilains being rapists, blackmailers, womanisers, sex addicts or plot armored sex dropped on their head for porn game purposes - all of those do not negate or forbid your main charatcer from having a sex life, a healthy relationship of actually honest human connections - drama for the sake of drama is not good writing and withholding sex from your main character is not a sign of a story based game in the slightest.
Being emotionally blackmailed into being their simp for the 100th time while they withhold sex or any emotional affectionate display of being your partner is not the testament of good writing or a story.
Making many and well rehearsed porn filled scenes for the vilains or the NTR tropes or the BBC tropes or the bully tropes or any other severely one sided vilains is not a story focussed game or even a good game in the slightest.
Such slide shows where those porn tropes rail your bethrothed with no build up, no story progression and no reason other than to show us how minor characters get plot armored scenes built on the premise that ”because they are evil and need no character or plot behind their evil deeds” - they are shown to dominate the scenes while the player base intent on seeing total dismemberment of all character attributes or human traits cheer for the antagonists to ruin the protagonist life are not good games or story first games.
A social event where MC opens up is a believable spark for his social life in a community of university campus life with people eager to integrate him into their own social circles.
This kind of turnabout moment in life and the ensuing shenanigans of MC being part of the social life of others, rather than some introspective loner hating life - this is interesting, precisely as MC living in the moment, in the now, is a good representation of how young couples get lost in their bliss of making it to be a family together and loose themselves in their couple sex life and their short term projects together .. .where too much thought or too much second guessing is left out, in favor of living their young couple life to the fullest.
The fallback to the lonesome years and the weird past of MC makes his transformation all the more extraordinary - as opposed to NTR or BBc or simp oriented shameless porn tropes filled games where the vilains get turbo sex scenes on steroids for the duration of the game with nothing for plot, while characters development is geared towards the looser protagonist who never gets anywhere or the turbo slut spouse of the protagonist who gets to be the town bicycle loosing all character for the pleasure of the audience laughing at her ordeal and that of the main character and players cheering for their constant abuse and hummiliation.
In adult games .. you need to choose what you want to game for and enjoy each game for what it is - brainless porn tropes of constant abuse or a story of actual character transformation.
Short novels with small scopes and brilliant characters build up aND PROGRESSION OF INTRIGUE AND PLOT exist and games do not need to be RR MArtin type of incest blood curdling sadistic murder or character assasination to be enjoyable, even if you like to watch game of thrones or house of the dragon.

The story of the game is that MC goes to the party .. MC gets goaded and even dragged there by his roomie .. .or he gets there with the girl he meets while being a weirdo loner - the story is there where the party is the galvanizing strike of genious for the MC where he meets all the girls who would later turn into his love interests. MC is built up pretty good with a story of photography and a reserved self - his photos in the social media are of himself and his mom even - something totally relatable to reserved young adults who have a bad track recod with anyone being their friends.

Overview:
Vetro City, a place that over the years has been consumed by drugs, corruption and criminal organizations. A young detective haunted by the ghosts of his past decides to infiltrate the criminal world to bring justice to those who are gone.
After that night is a police drama maybe closer to what you look for - centered on the inner struggles of the protagonist.

What are you looking for? Taboo university has a police officer looking for the missing girls, Jury has a Juror living the trial of a spouse found in the same home as the slain victim and on trial for murder, you could say: a gross simplified take on the O.J. trial with the mishaps of lacking crime site investigations.

Latest games from Tlaero are all murder mistery thrillers with good story and wonderful adult scenes that ground the characters and bring them alive out of the gloom and doom of their minds.

While i don't feel confident on my writting capabilities, and I'm insecure, i tried to make my game story first, it does have a plot and it takes some time to develop there's a lot of interactivity with choices and consequences as well, yiu aren't railroaded, give a try and see if you like.

I thought about giving it a shot, but after I read the overview and saw the previews...
I mean no disrespect, but the images look totally porny and I thought the plot is going to be an all out power fantasy.

Shaft is a power fantasy. Training day is a gang land power fantasy. Troy is a all out power fantasy. House of the Dragon is a balls to the wall incesst cess pool power fantasy with Damon plot armored giga chad to cuck and best them all - no real reason behind it apart from DEus Ex R.R. MArtin or some script writer making the scenes and events all work out in his favor. Blade is a power fantasy. Batman is a power fantasy. Superman is a power fanatsy. All the Marvel movies are all out power fantasy blockbusters. This never invalidated their plots or their characters.
These movies never stopped Denzel or Kianu or Liam or any of their fellow actors to keep endorsing them time and time and again.
Would you say they lack depth? Would you say they lack world building or propper fleshed out characters?
Barbie is a power fantasy and Oppenheimer is a power fantasy - the giga chad protagonists are OP behemoths that cuck everybody and win all their battles with little to no struggle - they get their way despite being mean, assholes and outright egotistical maniacs hell bent on toppelling everybody else - yet they are plot armored to dominate.
They still got Oscar nominations and wins by the truckload.
Would you say they all are bad movies?

I think the most important thing is that you make the game you want to make, and you don't have to listen to what I or anybody here say about it because we maybe value very different things. I'm just not sure you'll find your audience in this thread, even more after I read the reviews, that's all. And it isn't my topic, so don't let my doubts scare you away.
Good luck with the game too.
The key term was "all out power fantasy". I think power fantasy stories can be fun if they're done with a bit of flair. Like, roll with the minimum demands of the genre or audience (so this strains suspension of disbelief), but then don't go overboard and keep the power fantasy part a bit in check. But this thread isn't known for its love of any power fantasies, really.
So I don't say power fantasies are bad. Hell, my profile picture is from a gloriously trashy power fantasy game, and my favourite VN has strong power fantasy elements too.
I didn't see most of those films, so I can't judge all of them. Troy was a bad film and it lacked like all of that. The Matrix movies were great and had depth and world building. Didn't see House of the Dragon, but Martin's books usualy have depth and fleshed out characters, his world building is okayish though (he can never decide if Westeros is a carved up kingdom with feudal vassalage or a semi-centralised bureaucratic empire). The screen adaptations are normally a lot worse.
is gothgirlgames a brand or the girl part refer to your gender?
i like evakiss's ORS, that's mainly why im asking. Law of Attraction and more than that Karlsson Gambit is also good. Karlsson Gambit is not for me preference-wise but it's pretty good. Thats why im asking
sorry for asking
