DigitalJPlayground as other already pointed out, some of the renders are quite dark. Take for instances this screenshot. It's not coherent with what you're describing. There is not sun light entering this room nor "bathing" the character. I though the MC waked up at 3am, but it seems it's already early morning according to the script.

The game looks pretty good. The characters and renders are solid. The renders seem a bit too dark in some places, though.

The game may be in the top-notch games club in these aspects, but the GUI fonts, sprite renders of the characters (even our mind lol) definitely don't feel good. I suggest removing the sprite renders and using a simpler and cleaner looking font. Even a transparent dialogue box would be better. Good luck dev

probably wont be playing it though because of the MC's Mom's "International business" which in my mind and probably in the game relates to her being banged constantly around the globe
"These types of contents are really not for romance, incest, harem fans."
Everything that's shown in the game so far suggests it is a cuck game, with MC going around like a retard while everyone else is getting some
I just finished playing the game, and holy shit, you dudes need to chill out. There's no cuck content in it so far, none at all. The only suggestive scene with an LI, if you can even call it that, involves the mom pretending she lets herself seduced by that dumbass sheikh before kicking the shit outta him for becoming a lil too touchy-feely with her making every bad boss bitch female character in AAA games and movies proud of her.

Now, this might change in the future, hopefully not, but the only real issue I'm seeing there is that the aunt, who seems like a great auntie character, very attractive too, is a stripper who probably does extra work for money too and that a random girl sucks off the principal for good grades... we never heard of that one in porn, right ??

The good news is, none of the other two short games the dev already has completed had questionable content in them, despite the few vibes the first incest story had to it. Hopefully, it'll stay like this, but the reasonable thing the dev needs to do now is to be completely honest about their intentions and let ppl know what they should expect to see in their game, no more technicalities. This way, it's a win-win situation for everyone involved.

My only advice for everyone who's apprehensive about playing the game is to give it a go, it's a 30 min max play time anyway, and decide for themselves if they like it or not, instead of letting others do it for them based on their personal tastes and preferences.

She will not have sex with other characters, at most it will happen against her will, followed by a 'Game Over' screen.
Not a good idea, man. Ppl will still complain about it, especially after the two scenes with other guys in the beginning. Plus, if Sarah gets forced into having sex with someone, 'game over' moment or not, Patreon will also have a problem with it, so I'd say it's better to keep things like that out of the game and only focus on giving the MC a good character development, build-up with the LIs and throw some side pussy his way for a change.

Also, you better change auntie's job description, cuz being just a stripper doesn't mean she's worth being an LI.

I like her character like most players do, but the stripper angle makes her a fuck buddy at best, not an LI. Maybe you can make her the owner of the strip club instead... that way, the MC can see her as an LI and still get some pussy on the side in a manwhore playthrough. Just putting it out there, you don't have to feel obligated to do anything I or anyone else here says if you don't consider it good advice.

I mean, you can be a stripper and still don't fuck your clients, but I kind of agree and maybe it would be better if the aunt had an onlyfans instead, about the two girls sucking cocks... they have names but that doesn't mean they are love interests, they could be just NPC who will never interact with the MC xD

Look I don't like NTR but I feel some people here consider everything NTR, to the point that nobody in the whole world can fuck without making the MC a cuck, that's not how it works! NTR, at least the one most people hate, is when someone steal a girl from the MC and for now that isn't the case.

I couldn't get further than the beginning of the story where the teacher asks the MC to stay after class.
DigitalJPlayground you absolutely must review the management of your variables in your code.
No need to ask us to change the name of the MC if it is to be called by the default name.

So there are two scenes with chicks (both named and with no clarity if they are love interests of not) sucking some other guy's cock?

They can fuck, its the telling and especially showing them, that has no place outside of beta fetish focused games. Its a very easy concept to understand, if people would approach the topic in good faith, instead of pretending that everyone wants virgins, or are incels keeping the hoes down :whistle:

Best case scenario they are NPCs MC has nothing to do with them romantically, or sexually, then why waste time and energy rendering and animating them, instead of using that to build the MC, and the girls he can date, since is his story?

Worse case scenario(the usual one) they are not a love interest YET, as if you can avoid a 'tag' that will fool the players in being ok with the same type of content, with the same narrative design, that appeals to the same type of audience and is hated by the other group, on a technicality. If a scene is made to evoke the same type of emotions from the players, then why does it matter how you define it?

The first one is the one from the intro, the dev confirmed its just to build the villain. Because murdering someone tied to a chair was not enough, its the BJ that makes us take him seriously :Kappa:

We still have no idea about the girl sucking D for Grades.

Which is why I said that so far, there's no NTR in the game, but I never denied the two scenes you guys mentioned were pointless and added basically nothing constructive to the story.

Out of the whole female cast we met so far, the auntie's most likely the only one potentially doing stuff for extra $$$, not exactly a plus when you trying to present a woman that's supposed to be an LI, but since the dev assured us she doesn't and we let him know it's a bad idea to go into technicalities again and contradict himself, I personally decided to trust him and believe what he said. We'll have to wait and see if he keeps his promises.:unsure:

About the mom's missions, agreed again. There's no need for us to see her go that far to take a fool out and complete the mission, she might as well spike his drink and let the idiot dream about her tight ass for a looong time, there's no reason to show explicit proof of this and ffs, there's absolutely no real reason for a Game Over scene with her being raped for the 'plot'.

The other two girls are just two random hoes the MC prolly won't even interact or have any sexual intercourse with, nothing unavoidable at least, so again, there's no need to blow shit out of proportions like that.

Won't pretend the game got off to a great start when it obviously didn't, but I do believe we should try to give the dev our honest and constructive feedback, instead of trolling him for making a potentially innocent mistake about all these technicalities and let him decide what's best for his game. If we don't like the end result, we can always delete the game or ignore the thread and move on. My two cents on this topic, feel free to disagree if you don't like it.:)

There is some truth to what you're saying. And it is also true that sometimes things escalate not because of the dev but because of the responses from other users to what start as legitimate concerns and questions.

That being said, trust in devs is difficult for a lot of people and the longer things remain in the air the more people fill in the gaps with the "worst case scenario." Similar to how in a horror movie the monster you imagine is often worse than the one that ends up on screen, :ROFLMAO: Such as assuming that the dev intended for Sophia and the other girl that give some random guy a bj may have been for the Mc to "rescue them" from their "terrible" situation. And some may keep that assumption even if they are confirmed to be never seen again, because they may assume that the dev only says such now because of the blow back and not wanting to have to change those scenes. Basically many may assume he'd rather change the future plan than fix/remove a few renders and lines of dialog. But we can't know.

As they say, first impressions are tough, and it can be hard to overcome one that lands poorly. I do believe it is possible this was really just a poor choice and not indicative of long term plans for having NTR/sharing content, and that's why I haven't just ignored the game yet. But I also have zero desire to see another guy besides Mc get sucked off by a cute girl that could have easily been a love interest (and I do believe was likely originally intended to eventually be one). So, unless that scene is removed (and she's made a love interest hopefully after that) or at least the scene is made fully avoidable (if she really is not a love interest and won't show up again) then I won't try it without some clear statements from the dev. but that's just me, and everyone has different tolerance for different things.

But again, I fully see your point and it can seem like people escalate their responses before an answer has really even been given. (y)

It is always that, showing the LI fucking no matter the context would be considered ntr or cuckshit anyway. Since their role in the game is to be that, LOVE INTERESTS for the MC.

But instead of arguing they rather just insult and report comments to the jannies lmao.

Same, thats why I'll give this one, or two more updates before I decide. I already gave props to the art, although expressions do look weird at times and how MC didn't immediately comment on the sister ass sticking from under the covers while waking her up in the morning, or how he acts if you do choose to creep on the mom and aunt.

He is realistically surprised about his face burning up, he wonders where the fuck did those type of thoughts come from etc, yet doesn't go overboard lamenting his feelings like in many incest games, 'I rubbed my dick on moms pussy, but I can't penetrate her because its wrong' where you can clearly see that its just used to pad the content and milk the relationship.
