HTML - Completed - Corpo Life [v0.19] [CorpoLife_dev]

Rating updates from 08/13/2024.

I am updating my old rating for this game.
Because of the terrible attitude of the developer towards his game.


That's the end of the advantages, let's move on to the moments that were not fixed and will still infuriate the players.
We will also touch on the negative aspects that appeared during the development and updating of the game.


You probably ask what the developer was doing all the time?

1. And the answer is very simple, he carefully and gently hooked people on donation.
2. At first, he carefully showed everyone what a cool person he was, then when he saw the success of the game, he began to monetize.
3. You dear players are now going to tell me hey, calm down, all games have this stuff.
4. Yes, there is, but how do you like the lag of the game version in 2 or 3 updates for the donation versions?)
5. Plus, you get a version in which there are old errors and they have not been fixed for you, why? Yes, because the fixes are already in the donation version, is the hint clear?
6. 
   
7. But I think the last straw was his show with paid access and when the players finally realized what his policy towards the players was leading to.
8. And then his whining didn't work anymore when the version for his cows was leaked.

He tried to make a drama, but alas, it didn't work.
It's a shame for the game, if the author wasn't trying to make money, it could have turned out quite well.

Yes, any author wants to make money, but here it was the goal to make money and not to create a game, I hope you understand.

By the way, a useful tip, it applies to both this game and another game from this author.
The author will not correct anything here, because he is offended by the whole world.
And as for the second game, do not download the version that he gives to the players, he intentionally makes mistakes.

One of the Top HTML games here. Can't wait to see this when it's done. Also like that the Developer is active in Thread and listens to all problems and whishes.

I think the grindy part is just right, when you want to push it a little, use cheat, but there are games much worser.

I appreciate the dev saying that if you don't like grind you won't like his game. We have different ideas of what grind means.

Needing to spend many days to work for higher promotions: okay!
ex. 2
Needing to do this at the end of your workday before you can start working again: wtffffff there's "grind" and there's "holy crap put some quick nav into your game dude the only thing this is grinding is my finger bones.""

Even putting PageDown on Mouse 5 was wearing my hand out.
I'm in good shape, but I can honestly say the physical demands of this game were a bit too much for me to play it for more than 90 minutes.

Okay so let's do a pros and cons
PROS
• Lots of content
• Sexy Asian girls
• The tiered promotion/income system is pretty good.
• Replayability of sex scene chapters is pretty well done.
• Promotion events are a great addition.

CONS
• From a player-insert perspective, many of the scenes make you embarrassed to be the MC. Not in a femdom kind of way, but a "I was better at kissing and fucking the first time I did either" way. It's distracting how bad at fucking these guys are, and they kiss like they're spoonlessly eating a container of poop-flavored pudding. Sidenote: "I want to move to Japan and be a sex god among porn stars" is apparently a 100% REALISTIC GOAL.
• Not exclusive to this game, but
Directors, for some reason: "Girls, at no time should you behave remotely like a woman enjoying sex. And we're looking for noises that are a blend of a 1984 Oldsmobile that won't turn over, a 4 year old shreik-crying because they skinned their knee., and Pee Wee Herman laughing."
"I got this." -every JAV actress.
• "Bitch we went on ONE date - get the fuck out of my house." - MC, every morning after going on one date.
• "This is Karen. Apparently she's my girlfriend. She told me our boss was competent and out of courtesy I agreed with her. Naturally this made her fall deeply in love with me. We went out drinking one night - she sucked my dick in the bathroom and moved into my house."
Admittedly, I've had stranger relationships in my life - but if you were playing my life as a porn game you'd list them under "cons" too.

----
If, like me, you think terrible navigation does not count as "grind" - the game isn't overly grindy.
On the plus side - just resizing many of the images would fix a huge amount of people's complaints. Yeah, I'd still want better navigation because 20 clicks to get from A to B is nonsense, but at least it wouldn't be 20 clicks with 15 mouse wheel downs - that shit is ridiculous.
Add navigation, resize the clutter Mouse-wheel images, fix the redundant clicks (commute click, yes really continue click), disallow people from moving into my house after one date and it's a 4/5.
2.5 / 5 as is so we'll round up.

The game has a lot of content, but it also has some fundamental problems.

The good:
Pretty models, and there's not a lot of good quality "real Porn" Asian content out there, so it serves a niche.
The story is better than many, and the ladies are reasonably well drawn narratively.

The Bad:
WTAF is wrong with devs that think they need video clips for EVERYTHING. This game is a massive 9+ gb of content. And it's not all for sex content. They have 10-30 sec video clips of getting on the train, walking to work, discussing work with colleagues, working at your desk. WHY!?

Do everyone a favor and trim the extraneous content. A simple still image for such content is JUST FINE. Not once did I watch the entire 10-30 secs of content in these cases. It was fucking pointless.

The Grind: it has some grind, but it's not so onerous if you go into it expecting it. Just know you do eventually get to the porn content, and it doesn't take forever, but it will deter those more interested in a quick fap.

I'm gonna give this a 3.5 and round down to a 3, but I'm penalizing heavily for all of the pointless video content. If the Dev moves to trim such pointless content I'll update the rating.

Boring as hell.

You start the game and the problem already starts... whats the story? You have a menu, can go out of the flat, can stock some money, but why? What now?
Minutes later you figure out you must go to work. Here is another problem, why? Whats the point in working? How to make money? Why to talk to the girls and raise the relationship?
Minutes later... you got your first promotion and can hire some girls. You raised again some relationship and fucked one girl.... but why? Whats the point in fucking her? You cannot build any sex stats or anything. You just click throught the choices and see always the same sex scenes...

It might be a good game with a bit content but I dont see it. You have no quest log, no way to see how much progress you done, cannot build any stats... you just dont have any target to play the game.
Fucking the girls is the whole story? That cannot be true.

I'm currently playing this game (ver. 0.15) on a low-spec laptop and it runs pretty well. The game has a well-written storyline and a decent amount of grind (and cheats to skip the grind). There are enough variety of sex scenes as well as variety of clips within the same scenes, which is a treat. The gameplay itself is easy to understand and are quite immersive.

There are still some bugs that may hinder your progress if you're trying to speedrun a completionist save, but there are sufficient warnings put both in-game and on the game's wiki page. So far, I haven't encountered any game or immersion breaking aspects in this game.

Overall, this is a pretty well thought out and well made game. It delivers more than what I'd expected out of this type of game in this stage of development.

Gameplay:
Quest sandbox (somehow)
It's an HTML-game. You have an infinite weekly schedule where you repeat actions to build up stats (money and progress bars), to trigger events. There is a schedule where events and scenes only happen on specific hours (but they are repeatable).
So, raise stats clicking on actions and unlock scenes. You don't actually have to choose a path, except the girl you will marry.

Story:
This is not the strong point of the game. Actually, you don't feel that there is a story. Dialogues feel meaningless. Characters have absolutely no depth. There is no consequence, whatever you do (except if you are lazy at work maybe? Didn't try).

Graphics/Animation:
This is essentially Japanese porn. It's the strong point of the "game", as the quality is good.

Overall impression:
First, why put the story in New-York when it should be in Tokyo? I was attracted by the videos. Like porn, it's nice for a good fap, but there is no interest outside of that.

My One Warning
There is ONE NTR scene, you don't witness it yourself and it is rape . Normally NTR is an instant turnoff for me but this one can be forgiven. Want to know why? Play it and see how it plays out, trust me. Also you can click through it or any other events you don't like very quickly.

Gameplay
First off, It can be grindy if you don't use the included "cheat" button, but it is possible and the grind nearly dissapears after a while and the sex comes quickly and a lot of it is repeatable. Other than the grind, everything else in the game is fairly simple. Thankfully most of the cheats are free if you want to skip the grind and ones that risk breaking the story warn you (If you cheat your job progress, make sure you work at the office atleast once per promotion)

Events are easy to trigger, some have specific days of the wee and times of day to trigger. If you have trouble getting certain events to trigger, follow the included guide, don't worry if your AV yells at you for clicking on it, most AVs just don't like the hooks it uses but it's completely safe.

Speaking of events, almost all of them are well put together and the video quality is some of the best I've seen in these real porn games. There are a few that feel rushed and don't make sense but there is talk of these relationships being more fleshed out after a few updates. I will make a note that all of the videos auto-play and are not muted, so make sure your volume is set how you want it.

Performance, Grammar, and Bugs
Performance has not been an issue with me while playing this. I have not personally come across any broken events (unless i abused the Job Cheat).

Grammar is pretty good, I've only noticed a few typos buy those get spotted quickly by the community and the Dev responds as soon as they see it.

In the end, I'd give this a 5/5 but I also have an infernal lust for Asian Women so to keep things fair this is a 4/5.

Corpo Life has a lot of promise and deserves every bit of support it gets. I know i can't mention pricing or update times so let me just say it is worth it.
If you love JAV, cute moments, and can get past how JAV censors their porn, this is the game for you.

Tried the 0.15 version.

This is not really a game. It's basically cookie clicker that gives you a porn clips instead of cookies. Click the work button that shows "you worked" enough times, and you get a promotion. Click "talk with girl" enough times that shows "you talked" reaction, and you get some porn clips. Very underwhelming.

A sandbox needs to have some semblance of game element that needs to be managed to make it into a game. There is no focus on resource management or any meaningful decision making besides which girl do you click on to progress the relationship meter.

There's some good stuff her but holy crap what a clicky grindy nightmare of a game.
+ I enjoy the JAV content. You dont see that a lot in these games
+ High quality videos with audio rather than simple gifs

-Unbelievable grind fest. So much clicking on the same thing over and over and over again until you've done it enough times to advance the game.
-The girls are just there to fuck. There is no story telling or relationship building. You just click on "talk to her" 400 times until you get to watch of video of her. Not a game.

Sadly I also don't understand the hype here. It's a grindy real life simulator with not many things to do yet and not very interesting story. Redeeming quality is the porn which is high quality usually and there is a lot of it. But the gameplay is very meh.

Right now I feel like this game has great potential but falls short on a few things. First one is the overall quality and design choices to include things that are not really in the game. One example is the car stores, there's a fuck ton of brands in there but only a few car brands that can be bought. Another is one of the early love interests (Karen) house just being WIP despite having been in the game since very early on. Meaning you can click on it but it's kinda useless. I would suggest that the dev simply not have it in the game until it will actually serve a purpose (there's a ton of this in the game).

There are already a lot of models and they are all hot but the story around them are getting a bit samey and they all feel rather seperated. By that I mean that the way you progress through the girls happen mostly the same way and I would like the girls to interact more with eachother. I understand that real porn kinda limits the women interacting in a scene (unless you were super careful picking models that worked together) but if I go fuck the neighbor wife while together with Remu I feel like Remu should note that I spend a lot of time over there. It could open up some nice corruption stuff too. It's also a symptom of the game lacking depth in story and interactions.

But I'll be honest the biggest gripe I have is that the audio is always on, I kind of enjoy JAV models squaling like raped pigs when it's not over done but sadly that is rare. The fact that you sometimes have to keep spamming "Fuck her hard" 5-6 times before you get another clip or you're allowed to cum also makes it very irritating to listen to. On the note of audio the volume is VERY different between scenes and should be balanced asap. Some sounds are fine but walking down the street is loud as fuck for example.

TL;DR the game has big potential but lacks polish and suffers from some certain content not being in the game yet. It involves a lot of button mashing and I'd like to see a deepening of the story.

Great game, extremly hot women, equally great developer

With so many other real life focused games on this website it's incredibly refreshing seeing mainly asian / jav's being used. The game has a some grinding to it, however this is solved by random events that can make it go faster. The developer is actively communicating with the community and taking feedback to improve the game, releasing somewhat request updates.


Looking forward to seeing what content will added in the future.

I am having quite a bit of fun with this, and with the frequent Updates i am also coming back often.

While i am enjoying it, it is pretty basic. There's no great Story that will leave you thinking, no great Gameplay you'd come back for.
What the game wants to be instead is a Vehicle to deliver High Quality Porn Gifs/Videos with attractive Asian Models. And it excels at doing this.

Meaning, some of the criticism is deserved, altho not to the degree that it makes the game shit.
It means it's not great, it just is pretty good.

Extremely disappointing considering the ratings. Makes me wonder if it's botted. The writing is awful, probably the worst emotion-less and elementary school use of English on this site. Forced repeat clicks really suck too, just click the same button and back 20 times to get your levels up to see the content. There is no coherent simulation nor strategy yet not a smooth reading experience. I love the setting and the theme but wow it's so bad.

It's a well made HTML game with no unnecessary grind, and very erotic video selection. Super well done. I recommend following it to anyone reading this. Well worth playing! All the Japanese porn models especially are simply adorable in this.

Ive played this game a few times, so note to anyone first starting out is to make regular saves,cos it will save you time. first part of the game is easy(a little grind) at you start getting further along this is where it starts to get difficult(if you dont save often)cos if you do thing outta sinc you wont be going any further. this game could use a walkthrough,also why cant we break up with someone your dating.but overall a good game.

A game with pretty much everything perfect. From the scenes to events, dialogues, models and much more. Attention to the details is also noteworthy for example, the environment created around the city and in the office feels very professional. The dev knows what he his up to. In the early versions the variety of models were focused on Japan but the dev blended the western and Japanese models slowly and smoothly.
For sure worth a try. All the best to the Dev for this and upcoming projects. Cheers!

the developer apparently seems to have good ideas, there are some open ideas that haven't been concluded yet, in my humble opinion the developer should not be in a hurry to put all the ideas in each update... he should take a break, to correct sound errors and quality, go back and grab what was forgotten, confused and unfinished, give more focus now on the story line to stop being a copy paste of life... I repeat I think that "corpoo life" has legs to walk it's up to the developer to continue learning and programming with heart, but now for the game to grow it can't just be in the amount of videos or "Gbs" but in entertainment and logic ....
dev: you started well don't lose your focus ... you must listen to what the consumer likes but give priority to the good consumer don't let "corpo life" fall into futility.... keep doing it bigger make it better

I'm going to have to disagree with all of the 5-star reviews. So far as of writing (.06c) this game is pretty boring. I understand that it's an alpha but there's really no story to the game at all. It's mostly just clicking a bunch of times to raise girl's relationships then fuck them.
You can find uncensored jav videos but this has opted for the censored versions. Probably easier to find and cut those, so not a huge ding.
Lots of dead end passages so you can get stuck if you don't know where Twine's back button is. Other reviewers called it confusing but I disagree there. Just not a whole lot of content to really put anything together. Guess the dev is doing all the videos and places before adding a story or something? Which just seems ass backwards.

TLDR: Not much content, clickfest with no real story to it. Better off looking at porn sites.
