Java - Cultivation Spiral [Release 1g] [CSdev]

Ouy of my expectation in a good way!
First, you may seems a little bored and lost, but once you keep play a little more, it's story draw you in the world and You will want to dive in more to get to know those people's different side of them。

Gameplay, it's the incremental feel , if you like it, then you will like it .
story: good one, let you choose your own direction .
visual: seens it's mostly text base, and it's in early development, seems need more , but it's ok for me,as the character and style feel good, and consistance.

Its like playing an excel sheet. You just pick "do X", "Do Y", "Do the macarana" and click "set actions", "resolve day" and then "continue" to read what you did.
Actions take stamina, fill X bar.
They'll just say the same exact flavour text over and over again.
The limiting factor is stamina, so you just either ignore that because cost isn't high enough for it to matter or pick "sleep" once or twice a day, which effectively just means you make less progress that day. Its functional not actually different to just clicking more times. There's no real schedule, time-limited events or anything to actually make you care about being efficient at all.
Very, very occasionally, you'll get a scene where a static png of a girl talks at you. When? I dunno. You fill the girls exp bar, then it adds + 1 and resets. But that doesn't always give you a scene.

So you just mash click spam through identical text boxes to fill bars that mostly do nothing in the hopes that at some point something will happen.

The writing is mostly fine if we ignore "Tanaka", a girl the mc literally barely knows and actively avoids interacting much with they're willing to involve themselves with shady characters, take up a job and hire a "fixer" to rescue. Bit much for someone you literally barely know.

I have somewhat mixed feelings about the game. It is certainly an interesting one with a nice story and characters. As it is still early development, I think it can improve a lot.

Biggest issue currently the gameplay loop. It gets really repetitive for very little to give. Only time we get some sort of story development or scenes when the player fills a progress bar and even then sometimes it is not much. Wish each action would have a series of small random events, give some eye candy or more later on to keep things interesting.

It's still early days yet, but I like the optimization challenges this game presents and the incremental-style progress. The characters are distinct and fun, if a *little* too soapboxy about their individual political philosophies. The H-content is sparse and vanilla so far, but not bad. The UI is still something of a low point (especially the lag), but I trust that will improve.

For a game this early in development, I think it's got a solid foundation. I hope to see it expand both upwards and outwards going forwards.

One of those games where I came expecting an h-game but stayed for the story. Obviously this is the first release so things are a little rough around the edges, the UI being pretty user unfriendly and some of the actions getting repetitive eventually. However this game has some real potential. Got drawn in by the novelty of the story, and on top of that I simply adore games like these where you are going through some sort of a loop but slowly get stronger in between them and retain abilities from the previous once, and especially ones like these where differences are actually acknowledged. Giving a 5 star because I know this game can end up being something great eventually. Looking forward to the next update.

This game is one that I feel has a lot of potential.
The High Point of the game is its story, which does a very good job of making all of the Love Interests very sympathetic and interesting, while also containing a surprising amount of high quality political and philosophical commentary.
The Low Point of the game is its gameplay. Like many idle games this one contains a looping mechanic which starts you back at the beginning. While the first loop has enough novelty to keep you going while intriguing you with its story, subsequent playthroughs become a slog as the complexity of the settings and the unwieldiness of the UI constantly halt any automatic progression.
As this is the first release of this game (1c) the lack of polish is understandable, but in order for this game to become truly great, which I think it can, it will have to fix these issues.

It's too early to say if this game is good or bad. At the moment, the content is very limited, the gameplay quickly becomes repetitive, and the poorly designed user interface gave me a serious headache
