do you play the game? do you see the part talking about hedonism? where do u thin the term hedonist parties come form? ancient rome? ancient greece? its even told in the beggining of the prologue what kind of society its this,....my only doubt with the game is if ntr is happening bcs we chose wrong or right we will see that? or we will say later ah if we dont see it isnt happening....saw in many games before,the characteritics of the ladies are going in that direction even theloyals fidelitas one's....so they need to bound themselves bcs ....oh right bcs if not they will be like the others....was easy for me...i dont like ppl with multiple agendas,and everything here smells like that ......unless the dev itself says otherwise,..[harem path ,no sharing and avoidable not skipping ,i will wait..

Too many people are hung up on genre. I don't like NTR either, but dev if you tell a good story then i'm in. I love that vampire shit, and so far i like it. Also, kudos to you for making that decision to change your life and learning/starting the development of a VN. I have had a pretty good vampire story percolating in my brain for a couple years now that i'd like to make but taking those first steps is hard for me.

A very good first release. I just have two critiques.

1) The sex scene is very underwhelming. You did the cardinal sin of relying 100% on animations to carry a scene. It doesn't work. A blowjob animation from two angles and then a cumshot, with no dialogues or narration whatsoever is not going to get anyone's pp hard.

2) The choice with the maid. Friend/employee/slave. Okay, up until this choice, the MC was portrayed as a good guy MC with empathy, especially in the plane ride convo with childhood friend. He defends humans and such without any player control, so that's his basic personality at this point in his arc. Yet, you can chose to designate a good friend as a slave and the MC flips into that kind of domineering type. It's a jarring shift without proper build up for the MC's shift in perspective. The girl's personality also completely shifts based on your choice. The short convo prior to this choice is the only thing we have to go by, and if you pick the "missed you too" option, you get a sense that they have a certain friendship vibe which makes the sudden shift in their dynamics really weird.

Other than that, good luck on the game. There must surely have been no shortage of the usual harem bois complaining about some portrayals of vampire hedonism lol.

You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.

Jenny isnt new and that scene is already in the game if you chose the master slave relationship.
The only girl not presented as an "li" is Ashley, the withe haired girl and maid of Chloe.


read it's harem

play the game:

What the fuck is wrong with people we need fucking UV light twice the size of the sun to burn it all to the ground every single one of them.

The game doesnt feel like a harem though, based on what we can see in game it's everyone fucking with everyone,
What they do in the past isnt a problem, but Chloe said that she wont stop whoring herself, and same with Abi with party and fucking around, the maid Jenny is also fucked by a few guys already when she supposed to be close with mc, so more close to sharing/swinging but the not avoidable kind .


I wonder what's the point with the stat system though, lust and corruption feel redundant since both are tied to sex, and every girl starting at 0 lust and corruption doesnt seem normal either when all of them ( except maybe Jenny on one path ), should have a very high score in both based on how they act and talk. (hey at least should have each a different base in each stat based on their personality like it was kind of done with Jenny with love and sub.

I love it when you see a handful of 5 star ratings on an initial release. Like perfect out of the gate huh? They could just stop here and its perfect? At least give it a 3. This could be abandoned next week and itll just sit at 5 stars lol.
Wait, why would you give a good game a low rating out of the gate? If its doing a great job at the start, rate it that way as compared to other new games at the start. You can always change your rating later.

If you give it a 3, people won't even look at it - they will assume it kinda sucks.

Don't bother lmao, the mods are going to delete your message. My message was deleted saying that the LI's are bad choices for a specifically harem focused game because harem fans aren't going to connect with them or want to have them in a harem, and that even though the dev said there isn't ntr, that due to the culture of vampires in the game lore (fuck anything that moves) that the girls will still be sleeping around, it just won't be tagged as ntr because the dev sees that as normal and expected therefore it isn't cheating.

Keep in mind that I am not insulting anyone or attacking the dev, saying it isn't a true harem game, or being mad about anything, this is just an observation that all of the current love interests go against the majority of the target audience for this game's tastes

(actually, looking up why my post was removed, it was rule 02.1, which is off topic, how my message was off topic when it was about the game itself is lost to me)

You should cum to the realization that you are not a harem fan, you are a fan of a very specific harem and not to harems in terms of the definition. A harem is what fits into definition and not follows anyones taste.

I'm not doing this with you again. We went through this and was probably the reason our messages were deleted, the majority of harem fans aren't going to be into these girls, neither you nor I have control over this fact. It doesn't disqualify the game from being a harem game, it doesn't disqualify the girls from being in a harem, but the fact remains that harem fans aren't into these types of girls, and harem fans are what the game caters to, which might cause a disconnect between the player base and the dev. Also you have no authority to tell me what tags I am allowed to be into considering my tastes.

I'd imagine lust determines if/how often one wants to have sex while corruption determines what kind of sex they want.

Not everyone with high lust is into scat play, e.g. :whistle:

Literally no one but the dev should care, much less feel the need to scream about this from the rooftops. "THIS IS NOT THE KIND OF HAREM THAT I AND EVERY OTHER HAREM FAN LIKES". Cool, move on. I mean, there's plenty of harem games which meet your expectations, that you can get your dick wet to instead. Why waste time here?

I mean yeah, as you said, the dev should be the one who cares about the opinions of the people he is specifically catering to, that's why I said it. Keep in mind that I'm not trying to insult him or his game, telling him to remake it or to stop making it, just observing that maybe the choices of girls (and I guess the worldbuilding of "everyone has sex with everyone, that's just how it is") probably wasn't the best considering his intended audience. Harem fans generally don't like their girls sleeping around, and this game seems to be making it quite clear that the girls sleeping around will be happening, the girls love it and have no plans to stop, and that its a non negotiable part of the game. Which is fine by the way, and the game makes it quite clear that we have no choice in the matter either, so really its no fault of the dev, I'm just concerned that this goes entirely against the ethos (very well known and expected, by the way) of the intended audience lol, its like making an NTR game, but the main character runs a therapy office where he hypnotizes serial cheaters so they fall in love with him and couldn't ever think of cheating on him, and then lives a happy and fulfilled life with them without them ever cheating on him.

No forced sharing, no sharing. I'm focused on the power dynamic of the MC playing a big part in the relationships moving forward. For Chloe sex was her source of power.. Dad's dead, MC stepping up to that seat... Twins are bound by blood to MC, Jenny is in love with him.. I'm rambling sorry, no sharing confirmed.

what do you think why I said they should all be burned to ashes? We really should sell them all out to some vampire hunters and watch the fireworks.

We could become like Alucard and burn bitches in cooperation with the church.

Could you perhaps speak a little on the release cadence you are going for?
Is this some small side project you spend a couple hours on every weekend or are you full on no-lifing this?
Smaller updates every so often or bigger drops at 6+ months?

In any case, I'm looking forward to see where this is going.
With other vampire games around here being meh and bloodlines 2 looking pretty ass, we gotta get our vampire fix somewhere. :devilish:
