It'll be out chief. He's been in post-production since the 4th. Basically, scanning through text and potentially some broken renders to fix and adding music/SFX. He did say on the 4th it's getting delayed a bit. My best guess is that'll it be out on the weekend or next week.

I am trying to create a futa on female renders and animation and I want to use the customised models like the ones used in Bound By lust. The problem is the default options in HS1 isn't capable of doing something like the Natalie's webcam facefuck aniamtion or Natalie's couch blowjob or the French MILF deepthroat animation. hell the textures and meshes of the dick of MC is very different than default options of HS1. The skin textures of characters in also vastly superior than whats available on HS1 default options. So how are these custom models and meshes and textures and animation poses being created? Which softwares are being used in combination with HS1 to create such customised things?

Well, that's because he personally customized it. Like I said, he did say he used Blender. There's a lot of process when it comes to 3D Modeling. You have the UVs and Textures, Renders, Rigging, and other stuff. You can also use Substance Painter from Adobe to get the Textures feeling, but you can do that as well in Blender because the numerous of add-ons Blender has. This is so far from what I know. I have seen one video where a guy basically exports his character models from Honey Select 2, and basically messed with the 3D model, the UVs, textures, etc. Again, like said, the Dev uses Blender. It's free, it's open-source.

I'll be honest in my review, so dont expect sugar in the tea i'm spilling. (Personal opinion btw)

While I couldn't bring myself through the whole game, I did play about halfway (If i were to guess. Spent a good 2 hours on it)

The idea is great, but the execution falls short in multiple places.


The Writing:

I'll be honest, the writing isn't good. It feels like it wasn't proofread.
And if it was, then i suggest bringing someone else or an extra proofreader on the team. In multiple places of the game, i got confused or taken out of the immersion of the story.

The story is alright, but it needs a rework in execution, as nearly everything seems to happen for the fap.
And it's okay to do stuff for the sake of fap, but it would be better executed as comedic relief, relationship events and such.
Don't do it as a character trait, thats just lazy.


Characters:

I'm not above saying the characters are endearing to a point, but there are some that just brings a certain amount of ''Yeah, I am not playing this.''

The protagonist is honestly a wimp, without anything other than ''Pervert with powers''. And while that's good for a sandbox game, it doesn't mesh well with a game trying to tell a story. And it only frustrated me more that the protagonist's personality is there, but there are no options to act on or shape said personality.

A lot of the characters have personalities, but they are overdone. They don't seem to have a real personality outside their work or titles.

Reactions to event's are overdone as well.
I never felt like ''Yeah, i understand how you feel, bud'' Simply because the reactions are too much.


Game:

The renders are stunning in some scenes, and in others it looks like a drawing from a 12 year old.
The animations are good, I have nothing to say there.

Sound design made my ears want to commit the act of unaliving. It is NOT GOOD.


Now, i'm not an asshole that just spews my load and leaves, so here is what i personally think could make it better.

You can have all the outlandish ideas you want, and you can make them fit the story if it's written well.
Everything has a reason, so give subtle hints in dialogue, actions or their ideology, maybe even in the environment.

The characters act in extreme reactions or move in urgency when it's not needed. Tone that down a bit, or give them a reason to act as such. Could be the way they grew up, experiences or something else.

The MC seems to have opinions on stuff, but there is no way to act on them or form a personality. Let people make rash decisions on characters they disagree with or agree with, and let it shape the consequences. Don't like Natalie? Alright, but she will start being more annoying or maybe she will actually be hurt by that decision.

As for the sound and game design.
Sound design shouldn't be top of the shelf VA's moaning and yelling in a mic, or a person adding foley in layers to make a certain sound. Just yoink some snippets from PH or another porn site, and for the envirnmental stuff YT is a good bet. Anything under 5 seconds isn't copyright eligible.

Game design.
Switch less between rendered animation and full animation. I can't say much here since I'm well versed in Music/Sounds, VA'ing and writing, not game making, rendering and photo edits.

NOTE: I wrote all this as a review of a story within a game, not for a game for the fap's. So if the game is meant to be a fapfest, then be free to tell me to go fuck myself.

He gets less and less wimpy as the story moves on. It's a slow process, but it's there.

I may have to give it some more time then. I would lie if i didn't say I was still interested in where it would go.
But i still think it's important to catch people generally within the first hour (Unless you spent an hour turning your dick into a balloon animal, in which case I'd say you have some impressive stamina.)

Played the game all the way through now.

I still stand by most of what i've said in my earlier review of the game, but i do have more notes.

The game is captivating at points, giving a glimpse of some real horror, but it kills it with Fap. But playing through it, i can confidently say it is indeed a total fapfest.
BUT!
That is exactly what ruins the story (At least for me personally)
I see potential of a very deep story, that could bloom into a truly psychological story, but i would say:
If you want to tell a story, then stand your ground on it. Don't ruin it with fap.

I see strong potential for this game. But it needs proofreaders, and it needs to find it's feet.
Is it a story with psychological treats here and there, revolving around a dude that goes through different worlds?
Or is it a game meant to just show off the models for the sake of fap?

I'll definitely keep an eye out.

And although it is a slow burn to the point of mild frustration, i can confidently say: Give it 2-3 hours of your time.
It will be rewarding for fapfans, but the story isn't really smoothed out yet it seems
