I think the big questions are, "do you like the game they are making?" and "is atmosphere in the team comfortable enough that you would be able to work with them regularly?".
Apart from that, it's not much different from art commissions you do for money currently.

The sponsor is a woman apparently, doesn't like hentai so, I don't know.
I probably need to get stable income and client to get this to sail smoother, or patreon donation.

And if I have a funding, I want to make Final fantasy tactic plus town management and impregnate system to increase population for sure.
Though i plan to help her making a game with unity, I think experience will make me better game dev.

I don't plan to give up on this though, I just need better stable financially...

I will put this on hold, Some people told me that no one is going to play this and I would better working on other people's project or even make art for exposure as I don't have enough popularity as an artist to begin with.
AKA, this game will not sell as I'm an unknown artist and at best it would sell to people who like the same genre that I do [impregnation] though I couldn't even make the kind of game I want to make [breeding,incest] due to how I didn't design it that way, I want this one to be simple and if it gain enough money, I can go further. But again, it wouldn't sell so I figured that things will not go the way I wish it would and I will hold this on until I figure things out, and I will start by making a lot of fan art and meme to get myself in better position as an artist. as a tiny artist who has 5 like on average on my picture, this will not do.
In the end, it comes down to being popular. And I'm not. This project is probably 10 years earlier than it should be.
I have to jump around on commission work, exposure work and then game work everyday and it messes me up as I can't focus on things on one project even in a week.
Why bother making game that will not be successful and stress me out without helping me getting even exposure?
I will put it on hold to make this game even viable.

I wished I can just go back and make it just a text game. 1748144842592.png

As I don't know if the game will ever be made, I'm showing the last boss picture, she's manipulator and deciever.
She's an Alp, a type of incubus/succubus family. The more she thinks about man, the more feminist she would become.
Originally the warden of the ark, a man of ambitions , after using his arc getting out from his world, they're isekaied in to the world that player lives in.
But their technology was all rushed developed they didn't have time to verifying their full potential or side effect.
Result is the bad consequence of using them. They all turned in to monster hybrid creature.
Researcher became Durahan that head merged with the lava monster, A security chief grow a pair of bear ears and power.
And him? His dick disappeared and his boob starts to grow and what's worst is that he starts thinking of man's dick.
The creatures that he brough along, some became humanoid, some can even speak but most of them are just still animal.

And the technology devices they created is now called "Artifacts" in this world. They're prototype device that came from another world, another timeline or even far future.

Another part I regret that I might not able to share would be the story itself. As the game is very character driven.
About the mindset of people who are controlled in information,
About a girl who was abandoned by her parents because she didn't look like them
About a woman who played around/fucked around and found out
About a tale of a seer who once trusted people to do the right thing
About perspective and bias that shape what they will see and it's limitation.

My friend warned me the story I wrote is beyond and shouldn't be in a porn game as most people would probably skipped it anyway.
I spent time writing their background and their back stories, betrayal of the researcher who doesn't want to exploit the planet to go back to their probably destroyed world defying the leader and got her head chopped off by her best friend.

I probably love their characters and their stories, I just can't stop talking about them and the feeling that it will not succeed no matter what in current state is very sad.
Again, I will put it on hold, it might comeback in another form because I don't want to release a bad game.

In current state [not in the demo] There's stance/positioning line that put in to the game for combat, fatigue from environment that player has to be in later [lava stage is 3rd and snow in 4th]

If you have any advice I will hear it.
But I don't want to rush the game and make a game that I don't even want to play.

I came back using RPGmakerZ,
to start making the game again,
everything broke,
I don't know if this a work of RPGmaker 1757773463716.png 1757773514170.png
I never used this and I'm checking it and apparently after I put the picture in there, there's no picture, apparently they updated the program and broke the folder of picture/asset.

version 10262025Cc
I finished chapter 2 [main quest]

I removed some event from the demo as it's not chronically accurate.
But here's the progress so far, I will focus on the main story, the writing of chapter 3 is done, I need to put it in the game, map of the dungeon of ready [as you saw in the end of chapter 2]
I also changed a way to direct the scenes later on in the chapter 2,
feel free to drop the feedback.

Reading some of your posts, I know it can feel like you're doing an absolutely thankless job, that no one likes what you're doing , how it doesn't seem possible to earn any money while completely talentless people are just grifting away with AI imagery, but I hope you don't give up.

I genuinely love your art and think you're really doing a good job with it.

Tried the game, but I keep getting a bug, and Ive looked through the thread, but nothing seems to talk about how to get rid of it. In the upper left, there is a mark that never fades. It's always there. Attached is a screenshot. It's the half circle with the line under it.

That's time telling UI, it tells you what time it is right now in the game,
There are morning, Mid day afternoon and evening.
Some Character will shift their location up to what time it is even closing up the shop.
I have been thinking I should remove that because the overlay color does the action already.
But if it bothers too many people I would do that.
The game doesn't tell you but I tracked the time of the game [not how long you play] but it actually have week days
1 week has 4 days which some special character may show up on specific day, doesn't work atm but this is how I'm going to introduce some guest characters from supporters.

I like the premise of your game. If I could ask, this doesn't have to be illustrated but, how would the girls react while in bed asked the question, "how many children would you like?". I'm going to keep an eye on this project with much promise that's for sure. I pray for the best with your continued development and hopefully in good health afterword.

Hi i found 2 bugs.
In chapter 2 if you go into the fancy room in the inn (next to the store room you sleep) it soft locks you if you try to enter.
when attempting to enter the village in chapter 2 game freezes.
attached save for the latter case.
(i also did edit the file for money and stats to make combat easier)

Ohh ok I thought I did something wrong or something. Thank you for the answer.

But you may want to make it more transparent if you keep it. Cause it can hide NPC's. Even shows up in cut scenes

Yeah, I figured that out so in later events, I did hide it.
