This games gives me late 2000's to early 2010's vibe with a large sprinkle of life is strange somberness and melancholy. But most of all, LOOK AT THOSE FACIAL ANIMATIONS. literal levels above when it comes to AVN facial animations.



but man, this game even has proper color grading, cinematic lighting and film grain use which is rare to find in AVNs but oh boy does it make my inner film student rejoice.

Tho... the dialogue needs some work, I wouldn't say it's bad but but there's a few grammatical errors/inconsistencies there and there. Same goes with scene transitions being to sudden.

Anyway, the level of effort the dev put in must be commended. This game literally looks like a bunch of cutscenes from GTA 6 xD
Reshade
Magic Bloom, pCamera, filmic pass, cinematicDoF, filmdeck, filmgrain, prod80 LUT packs

A few GoTo choices to quickly setup a cinematic look. It won't be the same though and doesn't increase quality of renders and animation. For more quality on that front you could look into lossless scaling. It's not the same as a game that was actually invisioned like this, but it's still much better than the default ofm ost games.

Is there a Mac version? I tried converting to Mac via the Renpy app, but it gives a few errors at start and crashes after the intro montage thing.

Have been following the dev’s Patreon for some time and it was worth the wait for this first release. The care put into it shows all the way through. I made a couple suggestions to the dev to improve on the menu design, and dialogs should consistently mention which character is talking as it’s not always obvious, but those are minor flaws in an otherwise superbly designed and executed VN. The renders are gorgeous, the atmosphere and vibes we get are real, and having sounds and music (nonetheless, original music by the dev himself) is too often ignored to not go unnoticed this time around. Definitely one of most promising first efforts I’ve seen in a long time, kinda reminds me of « Strangers on paper » vibes…

So far so good.

The renders look incredible and the character designs finally break from the usual DAZ/Honey Select/Koikatsu visuals you see in literal thousands of other adult games and VNs.

The atmosphere is strongly depressing... clearly intentionally. It does a good job of painting an unpleasant environment and the state of mind of the protagonist making her an actual character.
That and the fact that the protagonist is a lesbian can turn away most of the impatient people who want to see dick every 30 seconds.

Only minor problems like having to figure out who's speaking sometimes and the menu UI looking terrible.

I'll keep an interested eye on this.

Uhm...
Blender?
Unreal/Meta Human?

Looks gorgeous. Now Dev only needs to find a way to streamline and manage his workflow in such a way that he can push out Updates on a weekly bases and finish the game in about 12 months, instead of 5 years/never like 98% of NSFW games.
No but seriously. This looks fantastic. Very promising.
At the end they said models and material are from Blenderkit Premium.

Renders so realistic they had me wondering if it was AI for a second there. Beautiful graphics.

This thing is on another level... Let's just hope it doesn't end up like all of them...

P.S. That OPP cruiser though :sneaky:

Hey guys, dev here. Had to join to say thanks so much for the feedback.

To clear up some things:

There will be hetero content to come, some cuts had to be made for this first part is all. Some scenes just didn't work for the story and some things just weren't working out.

The game will only have one route, with optional scenes and dialogue. When I started out to make an AVN, I was driven to make something completely different in more ways that one, that people might not have seen before in the medium. I realize the nature of the content will not be for everybody and will turn away lots of regular AVN players. But I've decided to make the story I'm interested in, which I have already planned out from the start, since I think it's a pretty impactful story and I've become quite attached to the characters in the process of making it.

Providing I can get some support, I'm looking forward to a shorter dev time for a second (longer) part, and improvements to art and common issues as mentioned here.

Thanks for the comments, such a relief to see since I've been killin' myself on this project for a while now. Take care.
