About 1 minute of gameplay: (As this game is in it's current form) Someone who had one of the appetizers burps in your face and you get to smell it.
Totally agree, how can you get support from a "test" were you are just showing a few good renders. Maybe your writing suck, or the system you want to employ, or your ratio of content/time is really poor. How the hell people's gonna invest without any parameters.
Still surprised he has already 240$/month...

I'm not totally negative here, don't get me wrong, the renders look really good and polished, but that's all we can judge at the moment...

Fair enough, but the thing about that is that it does not give enough information to the player so as for them to really get on board or not. I'll make a little comparison here Using "Food" instead of "Games" here as the product upon a first release.

2+ Hours of gameplay: Wow just wow, that's really going all out. That is like a taking someone to a fancy restaurant and trying various dishes and deserts and toppings with a lovely waitress and beautiful date all on the house. Magnificent... Almost nobody does this, but it would be great if people did.

About 1 Hour of gameplay: Taking someone to that same resturant, but on a budget and not ordering everything on the menu leaving something to the imagination. (This is what I think is ideal for a first release)

About 30 minutes of gameplay: Similar to 1 hour of gameplay, but they are going to stop you before you get to have your desert, but still something tasty.

About 15 minutes of gameplay: (What I would consider the minimum threshold to get people to take interest) Kinda like the 30 minute one, but instead of getting a full meal you get to have 1 bite of 1 of the aptizers

Well it's hard to argue with that, I have to agree. It just somehow reminded me of some shit I spent forever on and got poor reception while wishing I spent this much effort on it instead. Well well it is what it is. Well said.

Interesting feedback lol.
This wasn't really meant to be a release, I wanted my existing patrons to let me know about the direction I should head in. Either way the stats system will be altered, and I'll try to make the game as engaging and erotic as I can.

BTW a majority of my patrons came before I even mentioned the game :p

In Latin the nouns themselves are gendered. Femina Equum contains 2 words with opposing genders.

Femina Quadripedans would say it better.

I like that! I pulled the current title off it google translate, so I knew it wasn't going to be correct.

Well, like other folks would say : it's too early to know what it'll do or which direction it'll go. Although, renders are quite nice, and futa protag with horse cock is quite a rare sight, so it's a plus.

Precisely. I've been mainly working on backend stuff and miscellaneous functions for future additions.

"Equum" is not a noun in nominative case - it is an accusative case form of "equus", which cannot be used in this way with another noun, normally requiring a verb and/or a preposition. If one wants to form an adjective from "equus" it would be "equestrius", or "equestria" in feminine gender (to accord with "femina")

Thank you! I’ll actually change it to Femina Equestria.
It really has the potential to become one of the best games here on f95zone.
I appreciate this! Hopefully I can do my part well enough

I have to disagree with the 1 hour+ metric, and only because I'm coming from the perspective of someone who watches a ton of anime and live-action stuff. Don't know how familiar you are with the anime community, but there is a thing called the "3-episode rule." It's a rule which we all try to apply, in that we give a series 3 episodes to hook us. Generally, the first 3 episodes are used for general world-building, establishing the status quo, main character exposition, etc. It's 3 episodes of establishing the universe that are basically crucial to a story.

If a story can't hook its audience within those 3 episodes, it's considered a skip. In the same way, I see a game that can't get my interest within the first 20 minutes as a skip. You have time to present your main cast, how the mechanics work, etc within that time. If it takes you more than an hour to explain everything about the world and how things work mechanics-wise, your game has failed. In the same way, if, within that same amount nothing is presented and all you have is a concept at best, then it's a failure. The middle-ground is in what you can do in 20 minutes to gain my interest.

One hour would fit a "3 episode rule" perfectly according to you. A typical 30 minute television program has 8 to 10 minutes dedicated for commercials. 30-10 = 20. 20 x 3 = 60 minutes. So 1 hour = 3 episodes

All that being said the amount of playtime is to some degree is just an arbitrary number. Some players sit there and look over every single image carefully, and read every line slowly and stop to reflect on what happened a little bit. Other players may as well be an auto-clicker that click through as fast as possible like they are trying to do a speed run, and lots of people fall in between the two.
