RPGM - Completed - Agony of the Healthy Sleep [Final Day] [DushniyGames]

What a fantastic game.

The story is so unique and interesting, the setting is bizarre and weird, the characters are fascinating (especially Dolo), and the sex scenes are fantastic. I love how grotesque some of the monsters are. It really adds to the appeal.

A lot can be said about this game but I don't want to spoil anything. Play this even if you don't like the look of it initally. I didn't at first but the story really drew me in. Drink your tomato juice

The game was a magnificent experience considering most of us propably come in for the faps but stay for the interesting story and characters. Its extremely rare to find something like this where u get a genuinely good game all things considered in a industry such as this.
!!POSSIBLE SPOILERS BELOW!!! PLAY IT 8,7/10!!!

Pros: Characters- were interesting with good dialogue! was one of the strong points of the game.
Story- was interesting even if it isnt some third eye opening story, it was told masterfully! the developer has a talent for telling a story in a subtle way giving ques and clues here and there that are just vague enough. it was my favourite aspect of this game and was VERY well done!
atmosphere - it was amazing! The horror and the almost morbid-like curiosity u have when exploring and triggering sound ques were my favourite thing in this game. you almost never see this in RPGM games especially where the surroundings evoke this levelcuriosity to see more and explore! This was done the best in this game and sits comfortably next to Black Souls as my 2nd favourite RPGM horror game. Kudos!

Cons. Gameplay itslef is mostly exploring, maybe it was the goal. combat is next to irrelevant and could use some spicing up or make it so that theres more of it and ties to the story better.
!!Endings!!- there were frankly too few endings in general. Considering the lenght of the game we should definetly have an happy ending-ending to those who solve all puzzles and do all the correct choices, even if it ties to the story better to do the ending as done in "True Ending." it leaves one empty after using so much time and tought with this game and its mysteries, just to finish it like that. Could argue this is a matter of taste so feel free to disagree.
Sex scenes- Frankly waaaay too few scenes. The world was interesting and filled with all kind of characters and monsters that would have allowed for way more sexual encounters! you can easily clock in over 10h yet u see so few scenes in comparison and especially the lack of more options with important characters to have sex with was not used to its full potential.

in conclusion: This was clearly one of the first projects made by the dev and its an instant classic. Speaks volumes of the creative talent of the creator! It was a mediocre eroge but an outstanding art piece of a mysterious and horror filled game! Honestly the game charmed me with its mysterious and horror filled world and subtle ques that kept me guessing and thinking constantly, wanting me to unravel the secrets and lore of it all. If somehow the developer ever sees this i genuenly hope u continue working in the game development and hone ur skills more because u will 100% some day deliver a masterpiece. Will it be eroge or not doesent even matter, writing and usage of enviroment and sound with just twisted enough creatures and characters was beautiful. I had a very good time, thank you!!!

Strictly speaking, I don't know if this game is… good.

I'm definitely not sure if it's good porn, for that matter.

But what this game definitely is… is fascinating. It's in many ways an old-school RPG Maker horror game, in the vein of Yume Nikki or The Crooked Man, but with its own bizarre, idiosyncratic tendencies that give it an ambiance I've never quite felt in a game before. Once I started playing, I was utterly captivated, and just had to keep going to see the madness unfold to the very end.

I can't put my finger on exactly what it is, but there's something about this game that makes it unmistakably Russian. There's a general atmosphere of weary, resigned misery that perfuses the entire work.

Every sex scene in the game has this stilted quality to it that walks the fine line between seeming incompetent and seeming intentionally off-putting. If the goal was to make a sexy game, I think it undeniably fails; nevertheless, this game would also somehow be incomplete without the sexual content. At many points, the sex doesn't even seem like it's enjoyed by either party, more like… an obligation, either for the sake of the plot, or maybe for the sake of the player. It adds to the overall ennui on display.

I'd go so far as to characterize Agony of the Healthy Sleep as a kind of… outsider art. The creator is undeniably a talented artist and developer, and I think this game is worth seeing through to the end just to see an utterly unrestrained creative vision on display.

What the fuck did I just play?
But serious, this game is VERY heavy on story, so don't try to skip even if it just a small part. And the sex scene is good, but not the main focus so if you play this game just to fap then don't, Dolo will cut your dick, for real.
If you like horror puzzle games, this is a perfect game.

Cool game! Hot and weird fap material, as i like. And cool story twist, good writing. We need more games like this. Из души душевно в душу.
Now Dolo is my waifu. Simply the best girl. Of course I'm fucked up, but she's beautiful.
is there any more games like this?

Lovely little game, well written and with great atmosphere. Sex scenes are nice too, even if there aren't that many. I've seen the dev say they can't draw but I dissagree, I genuinely think the artwork fits the game very well. It's got style and creativity, you don't need to paint masterpieces for it to be hot.

Honestly one of the most unique and engaging games on this website. It's both strangely and effectively erotic, while having an engaging world and engaging story. This game should be mentioned alongside games like Supernatural, as a league of their own. Fantastic stuff, can't wait to see what else this developer comes up with!

Finished the game some time ago, I loved it a lot so I'm back to leave a rating.

Unlike some other game where it could just be a Renpy/VN game but made in RPG Maker for whatever reason, this game, uses the RPGM to good use to bring the horror part of the game.

The story was interesting, and the game was fun (both the humor and gameplay).

Excellent RPGM horror game with a really interesting plot and art direction. You can tell the dev put a lot of care into this game. That being said, I would not recommend playing this for fap material as the themes and horror elements are probably too much of a turn-off. However, if you're looking for a well made game with some sexy elements, I strongly recommend giving this one a try.

I'm gonna play Devils advocate for this one. Firstly I think the game is genuinely good, if you're a fan of horror with a really good well written story then honestly this is a gem for f95zone. Unfortunately for me, I saw big boobs and Milf and jumped straight in.

In-terms of enjoying the fap material the art is amazing, although you will have scenes which are kind of big turn offs to say the least. Playing throughout the game I consistently wondered if the creator could make a story this interesting but also in a more light-hearted setting? As first and foremost I'm reviewing this game as a PORN game and I couldn't see myself enjoying the H content without dreading going to sleep and experiencing the plane. If this was a standalone steam release which was 18 rated it honestly would probably do well, the maker definitely has passion and talent for good story telling and thematic setting because half way through I pretty much stopped enjoying the H content and just played for the story, which for a lot IS FABULOUS, but for me... there's a reason I'm on f95zone lol.... which I feel like is where most of the audiences opinions will lie when you post your game here unfortunately i.e. less focus on body horror, general horror and more on the porn aspect, although I know this is general critique for this unique game, it's where most of the successes lie for popular games on F95zone.

If I was to ask the developer a few questions they would be:
1. With such heavy focus on story telling and horror why bother with the porn aspect? As someone who loves RPGM games I can tell when a game has effort put into it, and the trend for these types of games is less on the mechanics and story and more on the H content, wouldn't a standalone horror game of your design be more popular? Genuinely curious.

2. I know this is a first project and I haven't seen much of your new game, but would you be interested in a non-horror H game? (I seriously believe that even if you put in a quarter of the effort you did for this one it would definitely be a hit on this site.)

3. Are you solely focused on Horror?

Good ol' RPGM quirkiness here lads! What was initially downloaded for a curious wank quickly became an earnest interest in the lore and driving plot presented by the developer, despite the roughness.

Honestly, we get less soul from some higher-budgeted H-games, and rarely get writing this effective. Though some might find the H-content a bit lacking, it's incorporated well into the narrative and does a good job of catching your attention.

If you're curious, this is well worth the time for fans of horror and more avant-garde games, and a solid recommendation for those that love RPGM games.

this is a masterpiece for sure, been a long time since I played a porn game for the plot and gameplay this shit is pretty much hentai undertale only thing I am kinda sad about is the ending because everything gets explained pretty quickly still for me its 9.5/10

It's a really good game but in between the screaming, horrific imagery, and jumpscares I'm not really sure if I should be taking my wiener out.

I'd really only recommend this game to play, rather than as fap material but getting the gallery can alleviate this.

Great Game.
The Story is really interesting and sex elements are nicely woven into it.
The Gameplay doesnt detract from the story or lewd stuff.
I have played tripple A games where the writing was less interesting and the characters not as well fleshed out.

This game is a masterpiece.

It is very rare to see the projects being made with such passion and quality to see the light of the day.
An amazing game, for which just everything worked out so well: excellent characters who are always represented well and true to themselves; a thrilling plot which kept me on the edge of my sit throughout the whole game; detailed, well-structured, and, somehow, logical lore that it resembles the quality of professional writers and even surpasses many.

And last, but not least, the atmosphere! Horror games on rpgm aren't really a novelty but the ones that are so nicely executed of course are pretty rare.

The author managed to do many unthinkable things: use abstractionism to the benefit of the story and setting being more cohesive; to make a horror game without a single shitty jumpscare which the authors of inferior skill would certainly want to use in their games; and after that, make the setting on top of everything aforementioned, for the lack of a better word, "sexful".

If you can manage the artstyle (which I admit can be a turn off for someone) this is a must play for anyone who enjoys deep plot, cool and likeable MC, exploration of a fictional world , and great writing overall.

If you're wondering what the game feels like, I could see it being inspired by some (maybe all, and by some extra that I am not even aware of) of the following titles: Blacksouls 2, Saya no Uta, Yume Nikki, Hylics- as if they had an ogry and this came out as a result.

I am in awe before the mighty Dushniy. I really hope the dev eventually comes back to making games. Carry on, tovarisch!

I say this, genuinely, that this game deserves a play. Story is intriguing, the characters are memorable, and the H scenes are just wonderful. The art style is definitely something in it's own, which fits that psychological horror aspect perfectly!

I enjoy a game that gives me plenty to think about afterward, and Agony of the Healthy Sleep satisfies that. Good luck in your future endeavors Dushniy. There's so much personality in this work, and your passion really shows through.

Surprisingly good game. The artwork takes some getting used to and a gallery unlock would have been nice – no one's gonna replay a 10+ hour game to find one or two missed scenes.

The story was somewhat rushed at the end, but it's still very much a solid experience. Some puzzles are a bit enigmatic or fidgety at times, so do browse this thread if you get stuck somewhere.

Gameplay
Controls: Opening the menu must be done with the keyboard. Everything else may be done by either mouse or keyboard.
Interface: A turn based combat system, and a quest journal.
Grind: None, it’s just going from quest A to quest B.
Writing
Plot: The best horror game I’ve played on this website. The ending felt a little rushed though, which keeps it in 4 stars.
Characters: Diverse personalities with actual growth.
Typos: Extremely rare.
Art
Models: Fantastic horror art.
Animations: N/A
Semen Effects: Lots of it with a good color.
Audio
Music: Incredibly thematic.
Effects: Perfect.
Voices: N/A.

The major strength of this game is the plane-shifting plot and the interesting mysteries that surround it. The main character is a fleshed out, unique, gloomy fellow who you grow an affinity for over time.

The other great thing is the strange, monstrous girls and girl-things you get to fuck in weird ways. Bodyhorror and sex is a combination rarely seen in the sexgame world, and although the art leaves something to be desired, it's mostly drawn by the author. I applaud the attempt, would be nice to see some high-def necro-titties though.

All in all, a very enjoyable experience for those looking for a solid and interesting story to accompany the largely out-of-the-ordinary eroticism.
