Yea.. That's the issue with this site.. NTR tag is both Netorare and Netori.

Simple solution:
1. In the 'Developer Notes' area in the OP explain that you are going for Netori and not Netorare.
2. In the 'Genre' area in the OP change the 'NTR' line into 'NTR (Netori)'.

Changed the tag. I think it will be more understandable.

What exactly do you mean by slavery?
i mean i hope we can enslave the girls like in corruption or the tyrant. i know you are planning corruption like you said on some comments and i hope it contains more male dom rather than romantic (basically being a jerk)

just played the game...dude more then half the tags arent even in the game. actually most of the tags arent in game yet.

i think only Male protag,milf,Voyeurism,and mobile game are the only tags that need to be up there. the rest of the tags need to be labeled as future tags in the genre section. only tags that are in game already should be shown.

in the overview your asking how you get more support? honestly after playing the game its not bad im just saying theres not enough content for players to decide that this game is worth patroning. theres only one choice in the game so far and it leads to a game over.

just so im clear im not saying the game is bad theres just not alot going on yet. but either way good luck to you dev.

I agree those at the top of the thread need edited.

About to check the game out will take some notes and report the thread to get them fixed if needed.

Please advise!
Guys need your advice! I am tormented by one question. Laying out the game, I realized that there is still a lot to be done in it. But even for this version as a whole, I got a lot of positive feedback. But I didn't get a single dollar of support. I've seen games that are much worse and have terrible reviews, and they always received a little support, which I was always surprised at)).
What advice would you give me on how to get more attention to the game? How at least a small donation so that I understand that you like the game and I should continue it?
I'm going to be blunt with you. I can't see you committing to the game in the long run. It's your first game ever, first release, it hasn't even been a day and you're already asking why no one's throwing money at you yet. And it's not even the fact that you've asked for donations and support 3 more times in the developer notes, it's the way you've phrased all of it. Your plea for advice seems ingenuine and you bashing on other games isn't helping. The very last sentence in the quote makes me think that you'll abandon the game altogether if an undisclosed amount of money isn't raised by an undisclosed date. And I don't want to support a game that seems like it's going to be abandoned, especially so early in.

Thanks for your interest in my game. There will be much more follow-up updates. Now I am laying out a plan for the next updates and changes in the game. Your opinion of what you wanted to see in the game would help me. And also if you pass the survey in my patreon. You don't need to be a patron for that.

Just read the update to the OP and realized what you said was indeed true, no support yet and it's a fact that most games in their prologue stages gain some support or the other. People like your game, that's for sure but from what I think, the prologue is really just a demo showing the characters. If you were to have any lewd scenes, even just one or two small ones, people can get really invested in your game if they like what you see. It's just, really really small right now.

Nevertheless, I'm certain if you added a bit more to the initial release, you would see some notable support. I realize it can be demotivating to continue an update you think no one is interested in but that's really not the case. I will be answering your patreon polls and giving you as much info I as a player of your game would like to see and by next release - even a small one with just a couple scenes - will start rolling in people. Just give it a little more time. Good luck!

Well if it's advise you want getting your game out there I would recommend a good marketing firm...

But seriously, your game is still in early stages so the battle uphill will be difficult and your commitment to the cause will be shown as the game develops, IF it develops.

Call me old fashioned but for me personally, as a matter of principle, I treat my projects as hobbies first and see what comes off it, rather than a basket to fill money in. Unfortunately, or fortunately depending on how you look at it, we're living in times where these types of porn games took off like a rocket ship, and competition is rigorous.

I would focus on good plot first, and good gaming mechanics second, as well as interface. Then renders of good looking characters, environment and texture and finally animation. If you don't have anyone else helping you out, you'll have to market yourself on social media. Some of the most successful games even go as far as making trailers of their games but that's only if you really expect great things.

Lastly, it's a good idea to start with regular updates, and keep true to them, specially at the beginning stages. I can't tell you how many times people complain about a game dev never meeting the quota they themselves set up. Plus, it boost up your game in sites like these ones and makes it more popular as a consequence.

Anyway those are my two cents on the matter, believe or not I'm on the side of the fence where I rather see more people make games like these, it's a great contrast to the censorship in mainstream gaming we got going on these days.

The game is not just too short even for 0.1, it has poor quality:
  • After you have talked to Emma in the pool and she left, she still sits in the pool, and you can have the same dialog again and again.
  • Clickable objects aren't highlighted.
  • Daniel is a male name, and she looks like a male (trans?).
  • When MC gets a boner from looking at her it makes me sick.
  • MC is a spineless serve type rather than charismatic, it's meh.
  • Of all the girls only one is cute.
  • Writing is poor, including inconsistent punctuation and grammar.
The developer wants support and donations (even putting self-advertisement in the game). Well, foxi, focus on making quality stuff, and then, after several months of diligent work and good updates, you would have donations. Right now it's just poor quality demo, nothing to donate for. And if "even worse games get some donations", well, maybe they are from devs' girlfriends. Get a girlfriend and ask her to become a patreon (if you really want that).

PS. This game was rated 5 stars and got strangely favorable review from "superharry777" - who both registered and was last seen here January 8th, the day foxi13 published this "game".

Well, deceiving people with your clones is the perfect policy, foxi13 [sarcasm].

Stay away from this scam, guys.

I mean, seriously:

I liked the picture in the game and the good plot. A promising start. Perhaps one of the best games in recent years. I will support the developer on patreon.

I'd say most likely as there hasn't been any activity on their patreon since JAN 9, 2021 AT 2:29 AM and they were last seen Jun 15, 2021 on F95. My guess is the look of the protagonist killed it before it could begin. Thread reported for abandonment.
