And since i'm here, Imma drop some of my criticism as someone who actively looks for updates to this game
- Way to much quantity over quality. There's a bunch of girls, and i connected with the science lady and maybe her priest sister (bad sign that I don't remember any of the names). Look at the games that actually have success with Koi: Lustful Sin, Corrupted Kingdoms, Changr, Dimension 69, all of them are *quality over quantity*. Don't just drop a whole bunch of sex scenes each update, give 1-2 characters a quest and then focus on them, preferably not just using Koi's preconfigured sex motions (look for scenes/animations from other people at Bepis damnit)
*This is renpy, each girl has 1 chance to make an impression, if your character doesn't hook the mfs in their first scene, people (me really) WILL just skip all the fucking dialogue*
- Bad Presentation: The UI is very bland without any styling, main menu card is super bland, way too templated face with little variety (like dude, just get some cards from bepis and switch some things around, instant improvement). But worse of all is the lighting and the cinematography. Go look at the Koikatsu Discord for some scenes to get some good lighting going, and see Lustful Sin's and Dimension 69 sex scenes for better camera angles.
For the UI, look at Changr for example. The Koi part is just mostly basic (default sex animations, mostly default faces/characters), but the UI, the gimmick, and the cinematography hard carry the thing. Even though it hasn't had a real update in months people still talk on their itch and Discord because it has *good presentation*.
- This is more a suggestion, but more fun encounters would be great. Give me some different outfits, creative scenarios, hidden sex, threesomes (I know they are a bit hard on Koi, more a suggestion), other forms of mind control, play around a bit.
Thank you for the game, I like it, but you are leaving a lot of easy/"do it once and never touch it again" stuff on the table. It can easily shoot out to a real 7 or 8/10 just with a bit of these adjustments (for comparison, Corrupted Kingdoms is the 10/10 gold standard in my book).
