HTML - College Daze [v0.540b Bugfix] [G28]

Early review of College Daze v0.001b

Oooh, this is a good one! This is a story-focused real-porn adventure developed with Twine/Sugarcube. And it's HOT!

There is an incredible amount of breadth to the story. You are presented with an almost absurd amount of flexibility in how to develop your character/stats and how you interact with others. Scouring the code left me a bit in awe.

The writing is excellent, with no language errors that I spotted in my playthough. And I'm a stickler about that! Perhaps most importantly, G28 knows how to write hot scenes. I mean smoking hot.

The breadth is, however, a concern. While that amount of flexibility is impressive, it has its downsides. First off, on any one playthrough of day one, you miss a TON of content. I hope things dovetail into something more flexible and allowing for experiencing a maximum amount of included content without multiple playthroughs. Second, and this is especially true if things don't dovetail into something more manageable, I worry about the author's ability to successfully manage so many paths. That said, there is nothing at all in the current content that leads me to believe that they can't, as it's all very professional and complete.

I have high hopes for this game! Thanks, G28!

Excellent game, keep up the good work. This review is available as of the first release of the game. My advice as a software engineer: pace yourself, don't start filling in all the stories. Focus on a main story, a linear experience with images here and there, and once you've finished that, then start filling in sub stories. If you start doing everything at once, it's gonna take you ages, you're going to have to keep in mind a thousand variables and you will burn out and abandon the project. Don't sweat it, enjoy the process, software development is as much about the journey as it is about the ending/destination. Come up with a plan, put a timeline and deadline and then stick to the plan. You can do this!

Great writing, great images, banging idea. Can't wait for more!

A very promising first release. Characters have some depth, the overarching story, while not groundbreaking, is interesting. Most importantly, no matter which path you choose you will find content, even the paths that do not rely on the "unique mechanic". This means your choices are about what kind of content you want, rather than either needing to make specific choices to get any content or needing to wait significant number sof updates to get the knid of content you want. Seems to be heading for an open world/sandbox approach to some degree, so looking forward to seeing that implemented and seeing the next part of the story.
