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

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.

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.

This is the best porn game I've played in years. I have to say that at first I wasn't convinced cause of the art style but... this was awesome.

Quoting and changing an old post from 4chan:
While making this game the developer stared into the abyss, the abyss stared back at the developer, and then the developer started touching his dick over his pants till the abyss looked away unconfortably.

Pros:
-The art starts weird but you end up liking it
-The kinks
-The naughty decision that spice the game
-MC Harold, despite being a sad fuck is actually very funny and make good jokes.
-The characters have souls
-The story is coherent and interesting
-The levels are very well designed
-Multiple endings
-No grinding
-The perfect amount of sex not to make a generic RPGmaker game, and the perfect amount of gameplay in order to not eclipse the porn part. Also the porn part is very coherent with the story, it is not forced hentai.
-There is a gallery at the end.

Contras:
-No skip buttom for text.
-No unlocker of gallery
-No unlocker to see other endings.

Really, is wasn't expecting this gem. I hope that the developer makes more games. It reminded me of Hakika (Leaf Geometry) games and Takamuran games (A New Game, The Mercenary's Adventure, etc).

5 Stars cause I cannot put more.

I don't usually review, but for this I felt the need to give a feedback.
I don't really know if I can say I enjoyed it, at least I don't want to tell myself I did... but I sure was fascinated all the way till the end.
Good work, keep doing weird stuff.

In a weird sense, I wish this wasn't a porn game so I could show it to my friends.

I could dock it a star saying that it's hard to fap to because of the intense horror, but that would be a disservice to how good the game actually is. Though a number of the women are definitely appealing and given any other context would be my favourite character.

There is attention to detail I rarely see even in significantly larger games.
The story is vague in all the best ways, where it gets you thinking without leaving you lost. At no point did it feel like something was thrown in randomly story wise. Even then it feels like I've probably missed out on a significant number of secrets because of how often I just ran past the scary stuff.
Normally I groan at seeing another rpgmaker game, but this makes the best use of it I've seen, fights are few, far between, and impactful.

All in all, if you want a good horror game, there's few I'd recommend over this.

Horror stories can rarely be interesting while remaining unsettling and mysterious , and yet i find all of this in an RPGM game on a porn site , such irony !
Amazing game, the plot is very interesting and captivating , making us the player ask questions all the time while it teases us with some answers until it gives more insane weird shit the day after , while its still day 6 as of me writing this review , i genuinely took my time playing , reading and trying to interact with all the possible things in the game , and following every bit of plot so i can understand WTF is going on , the art is also good , fitting for the genre and quite distinctive and sometimes disturbing which is what makes it good.
5 out of 5 for sure , maybe the only nitpick i have is that i wish the character moves a bit faster as sometimes it can get annoying , but that's just me being impatient as i wanna see what's gonna happen next .
Totally recommend this game to anyone who isn't just here for a quick fap and wants some fun for a couple hours .

Day 6 update
Honestly I haven't explored everything there is to offer but I've really enjoyed this game and the story it tells I admit it is kind of confusing and I did take some notes on what was going on in order to follow along but all in all I enjoyed it all.
combat was easy and pretty basic but i enjoyed it
i loved the art style and thought it was pretty good im sure it isn't for everyone but for those who do find it nice im sure you will enjoy
the story and choices seemed very linear but in some aspects that is nice cause it's telling a story and i find when you have a game where you create your own character most of them dont have the best plot lines

all in all i enjoyed the game and hope for more 5/5 thank you for making this game!

WARNING: Spoilers Ahead!

Our MC here, Harold, was probably the guy who created the first "Put your dick in it." meme. An RPGM game with an actual, interesting story, this game hooked me that I ended up playing it till the end, which is uptil Ep. 6 as of the time of this writing, and took me ~2hours. It should be~1 hour, but most of the time, MC moves as slow as a dilapidated sea slug on life support.
Please make the MC move faster on later updates.

The art is really gritty, which while it works well with the grotesque imagery found in the game and does lends the overall horrifying atmosphere and feel of the game, might not work as well as fap material.

Well, truth be told, I was turned on by the Grotesque Plane sex scenes, especially the ones with Persephonie, but I'm weird that way.
Normal plane sex scenes are bad as the gritty art does not work well with it.

The save/load Mindfuck trick was a nice touch by the way. I thought it would happen again with "Choose the Innocent prisoner" puzzle. Unfortunately, it didn't.

Game ran relatively smoothly with little to no bugs. There is this one oversight where using Observe on any enemy shows me the Miu (Otherworld Plane) battle observe results first, followed by the actual Observe results. Game also went unresponsive once, at the very end when I was talking with the Dev (Fluck you very much for telling me you made the slurping noises btw), but that's about it.

The story in this one is really intriguing and cannot wait for more updates.

This game is super good. The storyline is intense and engaging, perhaps the most engaging of anything I have played on this site. This dev deserves support and we should be promoting games like this.
The setting and mechanics are well thought out and you feel like you are truly in and interacting with the world, instead of just moving forwards on a set course.

This is a great little horror game. There's plenty of lewds but in my opinion the plot is where this game shines. The premise is unique. There's a lot of body-horror and surreal elements. The art style is unique, and looks hand drawn. While I wouldn't say it's at a professional level it's still got a distinctive charm to it.

At the moment the story progresses on a linear timeline. The Dev mentioned they might switch that up in the future, though personally I don't see anything wrong with it as is. I'm really looking forward to seeing this finished.

The writing in this game is very cool. The way symmetry works and the way we see how Harold shapes his daily life around it is particularly great. There's a fair bit of "show and don't tell"; a staple of good writing that has the side effect of reducing the amount of stuff players have to read. In my case, if there were constant walls of text I doubt I would've given the plot a chance, which would have been a shame.

The art is a mixed bag. The ideas shown in the art are great, however the quality is rather low. There is a charm to the low quality that seems to fit with the distorted atmosphere of the game, although it's hard to argue it doesn't hamper the sexual content to some extent. It seems the dev also understands this is a porn game, so even in plot heavy sections (such as the recent day 4 update) there will be a couple of sexy-time scenes sprinkled in.

There is a decent amount of content given it's still in early stages, but if the dev were to fall off the face of the Earth (as many do) we would be left with some seriously blue balls. It is easy to see the game's potential nuttability, and be pulled in by the intrigue of its plot, but I could only increase my rating if the package were more complete.

Overall, I'd absolutely recommend giving this game a try. Even if the art in the screenshots is off-putting to you, you may well end up being pulled into the world and having a good time.

EDIT: The dev had every right to "fall off the face of the Earth" given recent events and yet continues to work on this game anyway. Rating raised to 5/5

First off, obviously turn away if you're not into body/psychological horror with your lewds. Otherwise this game is pretty interesting. The art style has a charm to it that kinda grows on you, in my opinion at least, that also matches the aesthetic of the game as a whole. I don't really want to flat out call it ugly since that's rude but it pretty much is but in an appealing and good way due to the design as a whole.

Overall you play as a guy who shifts through reality and some fucked up hellscape with a lot of mysteries involved on how the two interact. I find it unfortunate that the game isn't as open world as I might have preferred it to be, namely exploring and interacting with each plane and finding scenes and such, but overall it pushes a story to make up for it. You'll learn with the player about the two planes and how he ties into all of this, especially after dealing with it for about 3 years and not learning much to anything due to his circumstances.

Definitely keeping an eye on this one. It's got an interesting premise and a unique story and concept that I genuinely want to see play out fully. The scenes also have a decent mixture of normal and eldritch due to the way the two planes interact.

Well! How do I say about this game considered all the people before me already voiced out their praise, I think the only thing I can say is: This game is a MUST TRY for people that love H games with horror element in it.
If you love the kind of game like Blacksouls with the rough but still good quality art style, horror element with nightmarish creatures and mysterious story that need to be unfold then this game is for you. Not just that but the music and sound in the game make the atmosphere feel very eerie and sometimes have nothing but silence and the only thing you can hear are the MC footstep or only the breathing and moaning sound of those "monsters", it was enough to give the first time players goosebumps and yet in some case you can get a few clever jumpscares that spice things up a bit more
Overall this is 1 of the best and quite unique horror game that you rarely find, if you ever feel bored with vanilla and sunshine games then this one will truly the best choice. Dev of this game truly are genius and deserved more support and I can't wait for more updates to see how the story will be like in the future, keep up with the good work

[Written during Day 3 update]

If say, you enjoy the experience of LSD Dream Emulator, and you would like an adult game based around that same experience with "combat", big boobies and asses, then this game is for you as it's essentially what this is all about. But the game is more interesting than what you might think at first glance.

Enter Harold, see him as he goes about with his fappy night club job with all the old, weird, creepy, and horny people he has to face, with how nonchalant he is and his snarky personality providing the game's overall humor.

Then you get the Plane, the exact reason Harold develops such a personality than just to cope with his dead-end job to fuck middle age ladies. Being a gorefest horrorland with all the squishy floors and buxom "monster girls" as your heart desires, oh, and the squishy MS Paint monsters too I guess.

Despite its low quality, or more because of its low quality, stuff can get eerie to look at, even more so because of their description. I would admit, the sound and "music" aspect of the Plane only provides more creepiness to the environment, it's disgusting and bizarre, and certainly caught me off guard at first.

One thing I also noticed besides the depressed dialogues from the customers is that Harold's description and Liz's comments in the Plane is somewhat noticeably cruder than in the day, the plane is supposed to be revealing actual thoughts perhaps?

Upon the second visit of the night club, the same exact nonchalant response from Harold to the unintelligible speech the horrors around him in an attempt to not break the "symmetry" really get you to understand then begin to sympathize with his situation and role as the Planewalker; not to mention, it plays to the environmental horror well. While your yandere monster partner making comments of your surrounding and threats against your "cheating ass" provides the dark humor here.

Then there's the ongoing plot around the other Planewalkers and Rehabilitator as Harold tries to gather more information about the Plane to do some, there's not much going on early, but I'm starting to like it.
With concept such as the membranes might change your ending like in Lisa the Painful (in the full game anyway) and the machine that Perse sent you that provides a "Plane-undoing" aura around it, I hope we'll see more of it soon enough.

Overall, the worldbuilding of this game is great and interesting so far if you don't treat as a simple fap-and-go kind of game, since the sex scenes (at least pre-Day 3) are a bit "subpar", as the developer would say, at the moment. But they do say that they will improve on it at later, so I don't think it's anything to worry about. Then again, the sex was never the focus anyway, you could change the sex scenes around a little and the current story would probably be about the same, can likely sell it on Steam even. (despite the adult content ban being lifted in recent years)

But I do have to complain about is how there's no running function at all besides the "hallway/village" sequence in Day 3; while yes, it plays into the experience when you are in the Plane, but it wouldn't hurt during the day when you're trying to examine stuff to see Harold's more humorous tidbits of his plain surroundings.

Well, I have to say this is a weird game that may not be enjoyed by everyone. For me personally, I came for large breasts and challenging combat. And the game does have this. It just also has a unique style that not everyone will enjoy.

First the combat. Have to give props, it is a challenge to win. Depending on if you found certain items and locations can affect how much health you have for the enemies. It was cool to see orange juice you drink in your apartment permanently increase your health. The only complaint is the attacks are very simple. Meaning no enemies weak to certain attacks.

As for the artwork, again, its up to your preference if you like the bloody theme of the plane.

As for the sex scenes, I did enjoy how the line between consent and not is blurred. Its impossible to know if characters hate or enjoy the sex. Though the artwork itself is once again up to your personal preference. I personally don't find bones sticking out of characters to be that attractive but did enjoy her large breasts.

If this game continues, I would love to see your OC slowly learn more about the other plane and even influence it. Such as growing a characters breasts or making them more susceptible to sex. Though I have no clue it this will conflict with the main story so take it or leave it.

Day 5

This game has great little moments sprinkled throughout the game. One of my favorites was when you talked to a customer at the bard and complained that nothing in this world is worth smiling about. And our OC actually did give good advice. Their are so many things to do in the world that it is impossible to do them all. Go out and experiment; try new things.

Though the major story is just as gripping. It was interesting to see the skin walkers faction. Powerful enough to take you away from the police and insane enough to torture you for the pain that feeds them. Yet also one of the only factions that answers any questions.

Really enjoyed Stephanie (the owner of the club). She just had a simple motivation to escape the alternate plane and get back to her old one. Now with her death, it is anyone's guess what happened to her. All we got was a flash of her without the mask.

One thing I do regret not mentioning earlier was did want a day or two extra working at the bar so we know what the regular schedule is for our OC. Give us some time to familiarize ourselves with the other planes and then mix things up by adding even more planes. Now, I have no clue how the story is structured, just wish more time was devoted to Act 1 where we learn about the world and characters before someone is killed/murdered.

This is one of the most interesting games I've played in recent years.
Ok, it's poorly drawn, short and weird. But it kept me engrossed in the story immediately after I started it.
I'm REALLY looking forward to the next updates.
