PROS: - See my opinions section for details.

1. Fairly decent looking LIs (not the worst)
2. Writing is structured and reads well enough

CONS: - See my opinions section for details.

1. Details of characters like renders are not clear, looks like clipping issues, facial renders are some pretty poorly done and not cleared up.
2. Dialogue box has no opacity or font setting, leaving a big white bar blocking 1/4 of the screen...
3. No sounds of any kind whatsoever....
4. Poor story with little if any logic to it, the entire premise is flawed on fundamental levels...
5. Poor logic and too many logical holes in most of the entire event/encounter.
6. Animations are rough, first one slightly better than the last.
7. Very short.

OPINIONS, SUGGESTIONS & FINAL REMARKS:

NOTE: The following remarks are my personal opinions and thoughts, which may provide more context and could be useful to the developer. (Read them or don't)

• Not sure what the developer was going for here, honestly, if they spent 5min looking at AVNs on this site, they would know that this product of theirs is really not good.
• Per above point, this AVN should not be released as any sort of demo or prologue, its just far from ready and is poor on many levels. While I can appreciate anyone starting out, you need to know you up against some steep competition, it doens't need to be like AAA but come on man, this really is not worth putting out in this state.
• Here are some suggestions the dev look at:
  • Develop a proper setting, why the woman are there, give it more meat on the bones, like they were traveling in the damn rain forest or something, hiking. This looks like they got lost in the woods behind the house, what are the odds a grown man would live out there, never have seen a person or be discovered?! So this idea fails, the place my be remote, where someone could have got lost and never met another human.
  • The MC has not a hair on his body, even his junk from the look...? His nails should be short, you know people bite their nails, his being long makes no sense, he had no dirt on him either, his teeth were all there and clean...
  • The MC gropes one woman and practically sucks her tit and she stands there doing nothing? Porn logic and nonsense.
  • Models need more work, the red head looks alright but the other ones face and expression look kinda like clay face...hard to explain, but don't seem that natural.
  • Renders quality overall is low and animations need lots of work, the first animation of him groping her was better than the last.

TLDR:

Really poor overall, and clearly something that should be worked on and refined before being put out there. The LIs look decent enough and the writing is also not bad, but its very short, there is just nothing here beyond that and what is here is not good quality either sadly. Hard pass

Version 0.1reviewed

Two young woman, lost while hiking in the woods, stumble upon a naked man and his wolf. That's all there is to this demo, which lasts about 5 minutes.

Pros:

1- I found one of the females to be rather cute.


Cons:

1- The writing was mediocre with some odd dialogue choices used to convey animal sounds. There were also some instances where the wrong character names were used. (ex- Chloe speaking to Chloe)

2- The renders were average with some odd facial expressions and poses.

3- Tip - Don't create slightly different renders of the same character for each line of dialogue. It's very distracting and unsightly and gives off the impression that the camera is shaking.

4- A white dialogue bar was used. A black bar with the option to reduce opacity would have been a better choice.


*Boner Meter - Flaccid

An extremely short demo that is difficult to watch due to the strange decision to create slightly different renders for each line of dialogue, giving off the impression of a camera shaking. Similar technical issues made it look as if the game was running at a low FPS.

If the render issues can be fixed and the writing beefed up a bit it might turn out to be a fair game. Unfortunately, in it's present state it is not worth a view.

Hopefully the dev can learn from the criticism and improve.

Good luck.

-------------------

* Boner Meter

1 star - Flaccid - Poor in many areas.
2-stars - Semi -hard - Some redeeming qualities but lacking in many areas.
3 stars - Average - A serviceable game that should appeal to it's targeted audience.
4 stars - Fully erect - A really good game that excels in most areas.
5 stars - Pornstar Cock - A stellar game that excels technically, visually and in the storytelling.

"Prolouge" is not the right word used here. Technical demo is more what this is. AVN has no business releasing anything right now in my opinion.

Renders are meh at best.

Plot well there is little explained in this prologue really.

No reason this deserves even 1 start potential is at most 1-2 stars here
