Unity - Completed - FlipWitch - Forbidden Sex Hex [v1.5] [MomoGames / Critical Bliss]

It's one of those games that you would play without needing the adult content. It's just that good. Also the music is absolutely amazing and I actively listen to it. I am excited to see their future games.

Game deserves 4 stars but since pixel-art sidescroller/metroidvania are rare, and when you find one usually they are not that good, this one gets 5.

Its not Succubuss Affection, but its pretty good nonetheless. Art is pretty, animations are decent, combat and map design could be better. I liked bosses and overall enjoyed it.

Incredibly detailed pixel art and amazing OST - probably the best I've seen and heard in a nsfw game. Many sidequests, characters and dialogue to help change things up. Fun gameplay - your typical metroidvania. Although I do wish the ending had a bit more of a wow factor. Do note, sex scenes are more on the vanilla side - might be okay for some but not enough for those who want something more.

Play it ONLY if you want to look at pretty art and listen to a pleasant soundtrack. These are the only aspects this game will deliver on.

This game only barely passes as an enjoyable experience mainly because:

• Many area's lack polish, or thought put into the level design.
• H-content is rarely creative, barely passable even if you're only into vanilla.
• The moment to moment gameplay is a disguised money farming simulator. None of the enemies are interesting to fight and are essentially walking gold bags.
• Story is constant MMORPG description flavor text, there is barely any context attached to the H-content aside from "Let me repay you in a sexual favor"

Flip Witch is a typical metroidvania. A 2D action platformer where your main objective is to explore a big map, gather the items to upgrade your movement and explore further the paths you couldn't before, leading to boss fights and the conclusion of the story, with a myriad of different flavor upgrades, magics, collectibles etc. Without a doubt this game is very well made. The gameplay aspect is top notch with smooth movement, great platforming, great controlling and plenty of fun enemies and big fights to entertain you. The game also has a mechanic of costumes you have to buy in order to complete side quests that eventually make you stronger. Those, and the available items in stores, require quite a bit of money grinding, so the first item I would advise you is the money upgrade. The game has a very detailed and impressive animated pixel art. The girls are very bouncy and while attacking and dodging you will have beautiful images to gorge your eyes on. But the big moments are the individual short scenes you come up with when you complete quests or when you are defeated. The scenes are plentiful and you will have access to a big gallery when you collect them all. Unfortunately that is also the biggest gripe with Flip Witch. The scenes are very boring. After you see four or five of them, they will look very similar, because the game does not go deep into different kinds of scenes, they are all variations of the same basic acts. In a game with this much content, this much different enemies and creatures, and this many scenes, one would expect much more variation. Considering the genre of these kinds of games, the public always prefers more different content than just the same content over and over again with different angles or positions. Besides that, another aspect that I disliked was the voice acting. The voice simply did not fit with the aspect the girls have in the game, too dense for the cute artstyle chosen. And you can not specifically control the voice volume.The music also deserves praise, specially the boss fights and the club. Definitely a recommendation, it has great gameplay but has its flaws like the repetitive scenes.

I will be honest here. From an eroge enjoyed perspective? This game is ultra vanilla and the erotic stuff are down right just mouse drags at best and mspaint move tools at worst. There are very little "ultra" erotic things that are worth getting off in this game.

From a normal gamer perspective, Flipwitch is an ecchi platformer game with downright amazing art and smooth combat animation with many interesting game mechanics that are fun and quirky, the characters are charming and the enemies are good-looking.

Downloading/buying this game is for the GAMEPLAY, not the ero part. Frankly, if this game didn't have a solid gameplay part of it, the art would've been mediocre at best.

The guy below me already wrote a long and detailed review that I fully agree with, so I'm going to keep it short. Really fun metroidvania (not perfect, but super charming) with sexiness implemented very well into the game (nude enemies, sexy outfits, bouncing tits everywhere etc) as well as bigger reward-scenes for finishing quests.

This game is good enough, that I actually recommend buying it on Steam once you've checked it out here.

Flipwitch is one of the rare examples of a Hentai Game that manages to be very fun even without the porn!

It is a very well crafted metroidvania with a simple main mechanic: the Gender-flipping gimmick, that as the name implies changes the Main Character's gender, feels easy to use and is rather unobtrusive on the main gameplay loop. It's main function is to provide interactions with NPCs (some will have different dialogue depending on your gender, and quest require the gender locked costumes to initiate of finish) and it is used as a combat/platforming tool as it allows to interact with certain color-specific platforms and projectiles. It works great as both a mechanic and allows for fun/sexy moments to swap the "point-of-view" without breaking the flow & immersion of the game, that's pretty good/smart design!

For me, such accomplishments would already net a 4/5 alone, but the sheer charm of the game has completely won me over!
The characters are all fun and quirky in a very positive manner, of course there are the sexy gals "built for oogling" as this is a porn game at it's core, but at multiple times I've found myself exhaling from my nose, and even letting a genuine chuckle from the writing!

The visuals are amazing: truly high-quality pixel-art! From the characters, to the menus, to the backgrounds, the items, the enemies and the bosses, all really professional-grade, high-standarts, chunky & creamy pixel goodness.
Not only in quality, but quantity too! Every area has it's unique enemies, color-scheme, game over animations (for both sexes!) and NPCs, and adding the multiple (very cute looking) costumes to unlock, it is obvious that a lot of work was done by the team, and it pays off greatly!
They really help to sell and characterize the cheery ambiance of the game: the city & alleyway truly blew me away at all the creativity and detail poured in every corner that went into the making of this game!

One detail I did not expect to be able to also praise this game: Sound Design!

All the songs are all very nice and full of personality, ( all of them remind me of the maplestory OST, and that a really good win in my book) and never overstay their welcome. The combat feels like it has weight and hits manage to both feel impactful and not melt your ears with constant ear-splitting noise! The sex scenes also have nice voice acting and aren't screaming matches!

Lastly, the sex scenes: I have to admit that the sex scenes are fairly serviceable (honestly, I prefered the overworld sprites to some of the animations, but mostly because the sprites are very, very good), and work really well as the rewards they're supposed to be!
They come mostly in three categories:
1 - Defeat Scene - Both in Female & Male points of view for each area of the game, showcases the enemies of the area, love all of them!
2 - Quest Reward - After completing a quest, you're treated with either a nice view or a fun-ride with the related NPC, both cases are really nice, especially because (again) the character design is sooooo good!
3 - Progression Reward - As you advance through the game, you get a few special animations as a reward for completing portions of the game, as with the other, looks very nice!

Overall, this is one of the best H-games that I've ever played, and would really recommend! Excellent game with good porn! Made me go to Steam and buy the damn game, and honestly you should too! Will watch MoMoGames closely for any new games they launch! Truly a 5 out of 5 game!

The art is gorgeous, not just the sex scenes but in general. Music is good and sound design is generally good. Gameplay is fun enough and decently engaging for a porn game. The dialogue is pretty witty and fun. Not to mention it's an actual COMPLETE game and not a v0.1 that dies a year in. I'm actually going to be buying this game to support the devs and I urge you to consider doing so as well.

I'm about halfway through and even without the H scenes this easily is a top tier game.

The combat it weighty and satisfying, the music's solid, platforming is fun and makes good use of the flip mechanic, the level design has that balance of peak metroidvania without making the player feel lost. the boss attack patterns are enjoyable challenging and memorable, the quest upgrade system is a great way to incentivize doing quests, I really like the way collectables are handled in this game and of course the H scenes while a bit basic and short, are beautifully drawn and animated.

I have few minor complaint though. My main complaint being that its a waste to have the genderbender mechanic but no yaoi h scenes. The amount of Yuri's in the game is lacking too. but since this isn't a Run Or Rape game as the h scenes with enemies are only in the game over it doesn't really detract from the experience too much. A male gatcha or attractive male characters having their faces visible in m/f scenes (or just not being turned blue) at the very least would have been nice. Maybe more male oriented content could be added in dlc or a future update. Other then that and few minor nitpicks, like some of the key choices making it hard to platform and The dev forgetting to make a male ghost form and there not being much of an opening cutscene explaining the story, this is still a great gaming experience and I look forward to finishing the game.

Great game. Good big quests with real plot and tru rewards. U need to actually play the game to progress in her, maybe id like to see more gold rewards to buy cosmetics more. Bosses are well designed but late game bosses are too weak in comparison with my character power. Animations are so neet and cool too

Really good side scroller game with fun boss fights and great music. Only lacking really male to male content which is surprising considering this is a gender flipping game. As well as balancing around spells being not worth it and mana getting rarely used.

To be fair, it's really good as a side-scroller game. The H-content is really rich too. But I think quality is more important than quantity. Maybe I'm just not too into the art style, who knows. So 4 star it is.

actually fun as fuck and smooth game play, once you get used to it the movement is fluid and fast! Im looking forward for more from this developer, really surprised at the quality of this game, picked ti up on steam just to support the dev

Scenario

In a fantasy world, the Witch of Chaos threatens to destroy the world. As Beatrix’s apprentice, you’ll have to explore the world in search of the keys to ward off this danger. During your adventure, you’ll meet a plethora of characters who are only too happy to help you and give you a good time.

Gameplay

FlipWitch is a 2D metroidvania in its purest form. You explore a world divided into biomes, each with its own monsters and gimmick, while unlocking new skills that require backtracking to explore new corridors. The system is classic, but still highly effective. Unlike many eroge games of this genre, here the controls are pleasant and the adventure is full of secrets to discover and side quests. It took me six hours to reach 100%, which is very reasonable.

H-content

The erotic content is very well done, scattered throughout the adventure via defeat screens, side-quest rewards and coins to be found in the environment. I loved the emphasis placed on monster girls, but the whole thing is sorely lacking in craziness. We’re often stuck on blowjobs or other classic positions, in stark contrast to the game’s wilder atmosphere. Artistically, it’s top-notch, with a consistent and unique style.

What I didn’t like

I would have liked more QoL for 100% after beating the final boss. There are also a few annoyances with the control system: I don’t like the fact that the person moves forward during the basic combo, as this causes you to run into the enemy sprite. What’s more, the magic uses a key combination that’s not very effective.

Conclusion

FlipWitch is the epitome of what I call a good eroge. The erotic content is interwoven with the gameplay, so that we can enjoy both pleasurable gameplay and masterful eroticism. What a delight!

I really like this game. It has a rough start but then it because a metroidvania with extra scenes with pretty good pixel art. I recommend this game. Don't be scared of the genderbender tag, it's more like having two protags. The scenes with the girl are centered on her and the scenes with guy are centered on the monster girls

Fucking amazing, 10/10 gameplay 11/10 scenes, keep going guys. The attention to detail and the expressive quality of the animations elevate the gaming experience, creating a sense of whimsy and wonder. From the character's joyful expressions to the dynamic interaction with the environment, the animations contribute significantly to the game's overall appeal.

It's good. Erotic and fun, WAAAY better than the usual horny galleries that's for sure, it's an actual GAME. Also the controls are perfectly fine and really fun! I don't know what some of these bad reviews were playing, but it wasn't this. Art is great, soundtrack is great, and having played my fair share of metroidvanias, this one's really good as well and has nice level design.

Now then, the only real problem I have is with the main feature of the game and a few of the upgrades:
-The changing gender mechanic, while fun when used in sidequests, is really underused in the platforming and combat. It doesn't have to be much more complex, but they definitely should have used it more, specially combat-side, only bosses really use it, and very little.
-The "magic upgrades", like the ghost and the slime, are pretty much impossible to use elsewhere, and while there are upgrades that work seamlessly to enhance your mobility, these ones feel underwhelming, specially the ghost one.

Now the h-scenes, I liked them, there could have been more variety, not in characters, there's plenty of them, but in positions. I'm sure you can enjoy it, it's vanilla stuff, average, and the art is very pretty, so criticizing the scenes would legitimately amount to nothing., since this is entirely personal preference, all I'll say is, for me, they were great.

Too complicated to play with one hand and too bad to play as a normal game.

Too complicated to play with one hand.

Looking at the game from the perspective of the adult genre, despite the decent artwork and a relatively large number of scenes, the scenes themselves are very short, and between them, there is a long and highly concentrated gameplay that takes all the player's attention. This makes elements like nude NPCs less satisfying as fan service. In the end, you get 10 minutes of gameplay (or 20 if you play without guides or if you're a bit slow like me), followed by 10 seconds of a scene.
--------------------------------------------------------
Too bad to play as a normal game.

One might assume that if the gameplay takes all the spotlight, then maybe the game isn't bad as a... game? But here, too, there are problems. In short, the game is a 2D platformer with Metroidvania elements. We have multiple locations/rooms. In each of them, there are hostile NPCs and some spatial puzzles leading to transitions to other locations/rooms. Sometimes paths in locations are blocked by obstacles that can be overcome by obtaining a tool through the main plot, motivating the player to return to previously cleared parts of the map.
What problems does the game have: level design and enemy design suggest a fast pace of progression, but starting from the middle of the game, the main character lacks the toolkit to keep the pace consistently high. Using magic requires holding a button and pressing the attack button after the animation appears, which will be impossible in high-intensity combat, as the character won't attack in such a case. Moreover, the magic holding button may simply not work if pressed after another movement to prepare the ability in advance. Melee attack has only one combination and strictly forward, making it impossible to attack someone slightly above or below the hitbox, not to mention flying enemies. Furthermore, performing a combination moves the character forward, making the combination unusable in narrow spaces, especially noticeable when fighting bosses. The ranged attack does not change throughout the game and is simply firing projectiles forward. The character takes damage from touching the enemy frame, even if it does not attack, which sometimes leads to issues with hitboxes. Some "spatial puzzle" levels are quite often populated with such enemy placements that force you to clear enemies before moving around the map.
All of the above gains more weight considering that some locations will have to be overcome dozens of times, and enemies respawn when entering a room anew.
In the end: As the story progresses, the locations become more challenging, and the main character gains new tools for navigating the area, but their combat abilities remain the same as they were at the very beginning.

I didn't mention the main feature of the game: the protagonist can change gender with the press of a button. However, gameplay-wise, it doesn't have a significant impact. Non-hostile NPCs simply dismiss dialogue with the 'wrong' gender, making one branch of the dialogue always a dead end. In battles, it doesn't affect anything, and the changes in activity platforms or moving platforms, in my personal opinion, don't look particularly impressive.
--------------------------------------------------------

In conclusion: Nice art design of the game, adult content looks good, but with such a strong emphasis on gameplay, the adult content could be completely removed from the game, and little would change. As a Metroidvania, the game quickly becomes routine and does not bring pleasure from the gameplay.

Personal comment: I would forgive the game a lot if they added many more close combat attacks allowing attacks from more angles relative to the character, not just forward. This is especially relevant against flying enemies that ignore obstacles moving strictly towards the character from somewhere above.

I think people are overhyping this game way too much. It's definitely a decent little title and hey kudos to actually releasing a fully functional complete game, a rock-bottom test 90% of pron games fail so maybe that's why everyone's slapping a 5 on it.

As a game, it doesn't really do anything interesting or new or especially well, and if not for being a pron game, it'd be immediately buried and forgotten among a ton of other better side scrollers.

However, as an ero game, it is definitely among the better ones. I seem to not be as amused by the gender flip mechanic as much as others, as while I really enjoy it there really isn't any mechanical complexity to it and I just feel as they left meteoric potential on there in terms of gameplay.

Pron-wise, it's pixel pron with some really well-done scenes. Pretty vanillia and not that bountiful, but what's there is good enough.

My standards aren't so low as to call this one of the best, but it's definitely a good first showing for the studio and I would like to see more (longer) games from them.

I debated over giving it four stars, but ultimately decided against it as its sexual content is the weaker side and that's kind of the main point of these games.

As it stands, I'd call Flipwitch more of a mediocre sidescroller/metrovania with decent enough erotic content to make it worthwhile, but then again, I'm not someone whose only experience with indie side scrollers are janky pron games so eh.
