Ren'Py - Escaping the Goblins [v0.3] [dj03man]

I would say that at this stage, the gameplays and features would still need lots of improvement, but at the other hand the porn is great. Graphics, animations, they are all really nice, I love it. Will looking forward to see more of it. Thanks for the game

I see a great amount of potential in the game as it stands, though one should be aware that the content at the moment is on the light side. I think the game design and the good use of AI videos justify its rating for the time being.

The game centers around three protagonists, the white-dressed "librarian elf", the "priestess elf" and the "bar elf". They have found their city conquered by an army of frisky goblins, and it is up to the player to help them manuever their way through their day-to-day lives until.... well nothing much at the moment. There's no end goal in the game yet, but the developer has indicated that there will eventually be an overarching story.

The days are broken into segments, during which you can choose one action for each of the three elves to take. While doing so, you need to watch their stats: stamina, suspicion, and the all-important horniess. Running out of stamina will tucker the elf out, maxing out suspicion will apparently lead to a game over, and higher horniness levels will give you... alternative versions of scenes.

The librarian elf has the most options at the moment. You can visit the garden, which might lead to "combat" with a goblin, during which you get to utilise her womanly wiles rather than combat skill. You can also visit the library, improving your combat abilities or unlocking more, you can "gather intel", which will give you a random scene, or rest to regenerate stamina.

The priestess elf can only clean the castle (church? can't remember), gather intel, or rest, and the bar elf can work the bar, gather intel, or rest. All three characters need to do their job once a day or dramatically increase suspicion.

At the moment, your daily cycle will be doing the job, gathering intel / going to the library, then resting. After you've clicked through a few days, particularly with high horniness, you'll have seen all the scenes.

As it stand, the game works fine as a delivery vehicle for a few excellent AI videos, but I see strong potential in the future. Below a few things I would really like to see in the game:

1. Give us an additional stat - corruption - to better capture the descent of the elves into debauchery. We know that the goblins apparently use pheremones to affect the elves, but this doesn't have any real effect on the game. Higher corruption might make the elves less inhibited, for example, unlocking more scenes which work against the player's goals.

2. I really like the idea that the librarian elf is effectively forced to "study" in the library to become more powerful in the battles, there's the potential to create a really interesting theme here of her descending further into debauchery in pursuit of her goal of freedom, but she's playing right into the goblins' hands. More along these lines would be great.

3. Once more mechanics are in the game to let you progress to some end goal, consider additional player characters. E.g. give us a pool of five, from which we can choose three, each of which has special abilities which can contribute to an overall plan. For example, the librarian can be a "combat" unit, the priestess could be better at gathering intel, the bar elf could be good at brewing potions, etc. More chances for more elves!

Honestly like where this one is headed! I went in with zero expectations and all I can say is if it keeps going in this direction we'll have a great game on our hands. Good slow build with clear paths to tiering and growth. Naturally repetitive now, but hoping it will progress.

Promising. I really appreciate the innovative use of AI tools in this project. The integration of artificial intelligence seems to elevate both the gameplay experience and the overall quality of design, suggesting that the developers have a clear understanding of how to use emerging technology effectively. The game demonstrates not only technical proficiency but also creative ambition — it’s clear that the AI-driven elements aren’t just gimmicks, but rather a meaningful part of the gameplay loop and user experience.

From what I’ve seen so far, this game has significant potential to stand out in a highly competitive market. The mechanics appear thoughtfully designed, and the AI features add depth, replayability, and a sense of unpredictability that could keep players engaged for a long time. It’s exciting to see developers embracing tools that push boundaries and create new possibilities for storytelling, character behavior, and adaptive challenges.

I’ll definitely be watching this game closely as it continues to develop. If the team can maintain this momentum and polish the experience further, it could easily become a standout title in its genre. The combination of innovation, creativity, and smart use of AI makes this project one to keep on the radar.

very sexy animations, it's a great pleasure seeing these arrogant elves being abused by the gentle goblins, this game has great potential, I hope that the developer will stick to creating more content.

[v0.20]

This is how they get you I guess...

I'm not a fanatical AI hater but I, like many, have come to resent the way it's been crowbarred into every aspect of my life.

As a long-suffering female protagonist game enjoyer, if there's one thing that would make me bow down to our new AI overlords is if we at least got some decent fucking porn games out of it.

Everything I've tried so far though has been underwhelming to put it mildly, however....

As someone with a crippling weakness to Elf girls I decided to give this a try against my better judgement.

The plot is fine but the gameplay loop of exploring a handful of areas whilst trying to keep suspicion low and managing stamina, even if it worked properly, is aggressively unengaging. There doesn't seem to be any wider story or objectives to work towards either. It's buggy as hell to boot with a pile of missing assets and text HOWEVER......

I'll be damned if the CG scenes, when you can actually get them, are some of the best things I've witnessed in my long and shameful career on this site.

If someone put together even a remotely competent corruption storyline over some cookie-cutter rpgm engine game using these visuals I'm sorry to say I'd play the shit out of it over most of the titles I've played on here in the past.

As for this game, I'll keep an eye on it but I'm not expecting it to ever pull itself out of the gutter.

Tl;dr: Good concept, AI vids are interesting, I don't expect much going forward.

You're probably looking at this game because of the AI vids. They're pretty high quality, although it does slip into the realm of uncanny for me. Dev clearly knows what they're doing with the videos or they just found an easy way to get quality videos, I don't know.

The concept of the game isn't bad. Goblins take over the city but don't rape elves, elven girls have to prepare a plan to beat them without being suspicious, goblins have pheromones to make them horny. The game itself is also horny as hell, with the character design clearly showing that.

What's the problem? For one, this is very early despite the seeming existence of a gameplay loop. Play it for long enough and the issues of early release become clear. Only one of the three characters actually have combat, the girl who can fight, does not have all her videos in the files actually useable, and the stats don't do anything. You can run out of stamina, max out lust, or gain full suspicion, nothing really changes.

The other clear issue is that I don't think much of any of this game was actually worked on by human hands. From the music to the voices to the art to the writing, it all seems AI. I would not be surprised if the code is also AI but LLMs do a good job with those, at least initially. Is this a problem? Likely yes, as the project will grow the disconnect will become much more apparent. Plus there are already plenty of missing textures in this game. If AI art has one strength over the other methods of delivering visuals, it's speed.

(I accuse the writing as being AI due to one simple trend. If you play, notice how any time the writing suggest something... suggestive, there's a ellipsis. Like, "The elves will need to be... creative," something like that. LLMs do this a lot. There's also some disconnect in the narrative. The goblins can't bang the girls without consent but demand sex from the girls sometimes?)

This is an improvement over the dev's other game but that isn't saying much in my opinion. Maybe the dev can deliver something good but right now the only bit of soul I see in this is the art, and even that's weird looking. At least it's not the 1000th NTR phone AI slop game this week.

[v0.2]

It's early days, so there are bugs, assets missing and the game mechanics are only halfway in place, but so far it's looking quite promising. The AI videos are hot.

From a peek at the project files it looks like it's implemented by vibe coding; I wonder how that will work out going forward.

I went in with zero expectations and all I can say is if it keeps going in this direction we'll have a great game on our hands. Good slow build with clear paths to tiering and growth. Naturally repetitive now, but hoping it will progress.

Has potential the Animation are very well done for Ai .There are alot of bugs witch need adressing like some scenes do not play a video witch sucks and the grinding is just not fun .all in all needs a bit more work but could be amazing if you keep at it

Its alright just needs more content in it love the ai and how it works just need to keep going on updates and content so keep this going and if you want to give it a play just know only one of the girls has sex scenes for now

[v0.2]

The AI animations are pretty nifty. That's about it. This is not even close to playable. Wouldn't surprise me if dev just asked some LLM to make a code base for a game. It's truly ass and has no point to it.

Zero quality control before putting a game online.
While the AI graphics and video loops may be quite attractive, what's the point if you're left alone in the game without any explanation? No objectives are stated, there are various stats, like suspicion, but individual actions randomly earn plus or minus points.
A morning visit to the library increases suspicion, while the same action the next day decreases it.
And what's even worse are all the incorrect image links, or there are no images at all.
If you want to see the short videos, download the game and look at the corresponding folder in the game files. For now (v0.2), skip the game itself.
