Sounds nice but the sprites suck... see what i did there

Alright, I'll give some constructive criticism. I'll judge this from a demo/proof of concept standpoint, as its clear this is a beginning build. It runs fine for me with all settings at its highest (Note: I have a RTX 2080 and a Ryzen 7 2700X so there isn't too much out there for me that can't be run so results may vary).

Characters: They are pretty bland, they remind me of the characters from LifePlay. With tweaking and extra attention to the models, I'm sure they can look pretty good. What bothered me the most was the hair. Each character's hair is a bit jarring but like I said, it would take some tweaks to make them look better.

Animations: Not many but overall the ones available aren't bad (the sex ones). I would suggest working on implementing multiple positions that can be used in each encounter as well as a speed button. It would cool to see a system implemented like how Koikatu does when the faster or slower it goes, the animation changes slightly to be more realistic. <-- I know that's a tall order but it would be cool to see on day. One thing I would suggest highly is a POV button to give the player freedom with how they want to view the scene. Other animations are pretty general though I did notice that the characters teleport to their next spot, not walk to it so I would work on trying to implement that into the gameplay as well. Once exception is how the player character walks. It kind of reminds me of so I'd work on tweaking that as well.

Setting: Looks like a general house from Daz. I would work on first making the interior more detailed. Make objects like sinks, showers, toilets, tvs, even furniture accessible and interactive. Once the interior is detailed, I would work on creating an immediate outside, backyard, pool, patio, garage, shed, etc. From there I'm not sure what your plans are, but I imagine it'll eventually include places outside of the house like shops and offices. I'd take it one at a time and add as much as you can before moving on.

Plot: There is no plot. That's fine since this comes off as more of a proof of concept than anything else. I think we all know where the plot will go with this one. I'm not necessarily complaining but it is nice to have a unique plot once in a while. It'll be interesting to see where it'll go.

I'll give it a 4/5 judging it from a demo/proof of concept point of view. I'll keep tabs on it as I enjoy 3d games. I hope to see improvements in the future as I think it can going somewhere.

Good demo. Improve the house and the animations. Give it a proper gui and good corruption/lewdness progression and you got a solid game to start with ;)!. Character models look good, i would just tweek the "landlady" a bit, a more sweet mother but seductive figure.

I have a good feeling about this game.
I don't normally play demos, i usually wait until 1.0 or 1.5 but i might have to download and test this game out as it looks good from the screenshots.

Also great guide, a suggestion would be to name it A Tale Your Tale Guide or A Tale Your Tale Game Guide or just leave it it's up to you.
Thanks bro. I will do that.

I made this game with assets from Daz, renderosity, renderotica.
why you dont use DAz ?
i guess you more better with Blender, but i m not sure if blender is not more hungry for your CPU than DAz in 3delight :/

may give a try and check if you can. imho, if you good with blender, you can definitly tame DAz... blender is a hell of a UI for sure , not the most amateur friendly program XD

Not a bad start, could build into a harem / Sado type game to introduce various "actions" a little rough on the movement of the MC but once engaged. Keep Going! Good Start!
Thanks man, The game will not only be this, I want to do much more.

I am using Daz3d for the characters, I think when I export to Unreal some properties of the materials are lost, I am seeing how to improve the quality of the characters and the hair.

why you guys need harem in every game I don't understand...
I have followed the example of the games I have played, maybe it is not the right thing, but everything can change. The game is not just about having sex and sex, I want to create a good story.

In the marketplace of epic games, there is a plugin that helps transfer assets from Daz Studio to the Unreal Engine, and with the sample images you can notice the difference, but right now I can't afford to buy it XD.

I just want to tell you that I accept any kind of opinion, what you liked it, what you didn't like it, so I can know what things to improve, what things to change.

I appreciate all your comments, I already have in mind some things to change to improve them.
