Recommending High Quality Koikatsu Games (Custom Animations and Models.)

[EstrangeNS]

I've been on a Koikatsu kick lately.

Here are some games I already know that qualify (in no particular order):

Male Protagonist:

#	Title	Pros	Cons	Notes
1.	Goddess Whim	[Deformation]
2.	My Maid Dreams of Electric Sheep	[Good story and atmosphere]
3.	Genex Love
4.	Twisted World		[Futa & Gay focused]	I didn't finish. Too much unavoidable futa/gay.
5.	Unexpected		[Multiple Protagonist Routes]	Has male & female protagonists, with separate stories. The updates are really slow because of this.
6.	Tropicali
7.	Succubus Kingdom

Female Protagonist:
I don't play these... so someone else is going to have to help fill this section out.

#	Title	Pros	Cons	Notes
1.	Unexpected		[Multiple Protagonist Routes]	I haven't played this route.

Qualifications:
1. It must be made using Koikatsu.
2. The Koikatsu models must be custom-made by the devs.
3. All models must be original characters (No anime/parody characters).
4. The game must contain animations.
5. All animations must be made by the devs (no default Koikatsu animations).
6. The models and animations must be of high quality.

Notes:
I will add more as I find them, or as they are recommended.
The story doesn't exactly matter... but if it's unplayable, it won't make this list.
Games that use stolen custom models from other games will not be on this list either.
I am willing to break qualification #3 if you can prove the dev made the models.
The pros and cons are based on my personal preferences.

I recommend adventure trainer it is a good parody game.

I recommend adventure trainer it is a good parody game.

I have played a small amount of it and it's "okay", but it breaks a rule of mine.

Games that use stolen custom models will not be on this list either.

I believe that parody games should ALWAYS have custom art (made by the dev or team) otherwise it's just really lazy.
I already have to trust them to convincingly write the preestablished characters (which most fail at), and seeing that they took a shortcut and stole the art instantly causes me to lose faith that they can do that.
If a dev takes shortcuts in one aspect, they'll take shortcuts in others.

I appreciate the suggestion though!

I'm back again and recommending this one, Out of Touch! [v2.96.2] [Story Anon] https://f95zone.to/threads/out-of-touch-v2-96-2-story-anon.67494/ The game is very narrative-driven is a plus for sure and the art style is similar to Genex Love. Try it out if this one fits. Also I'm going to return again when I found something worth playing.

I've played a fair amount of OoT.
I haven't added it because the models are pretty rough (not sure why StoryAnon hasn't updated them), and there's not much custom animation (I'm still in the pre-unity chapters I think).
Speaking of StoryAnon, I am heavily considering adding Tropicali. I just haven't seen enough animation (I've yet to finish the demo).
I went ahead and added Tropicali lul.

I appreciate your suggestions! please continue to do so.

I can recommend the game The Nobody in a Hero's World. It has very high quality renders, good humor. But there is not much content and no animations yet.

I'm also keeping my eyes on this game and waiting for more updates to really judge if it is constant in quality. Also, I'm currently playing Companion of Darkness (Berkili4) this might be a candidate but I'm troubled by the pubic hair. After that I'm playing Cosy Cafe

All are hq with nice animations.

any update on the recommended game??

I've had this one bookmarked, and I'm waiting till he adds animation (You can see me on page two of the thread :3).
I'm disappointed that he won't (can't) add the option to fuck the chibi mushroom tho.
Devs need to stop using Patreon.

https://f95zone.to/threads/destinys-embrace-v0-1-0-yqmo.184177/ fantasy sandbox

Checked out the beginning and it seems very promising.
Will update when I find time to give it a proper playthrough.

https://f95zone.to/threads/dungeon-days-v0-052-hotfix-buba.135334/ very good light-hearted adventure-driven media

I tried to play this a while back but found the models pretty ugly.
I went through the files to look at the animations, and they seem pretty basic if not default.

https://f95zone.to/threads/something-better-v0-1-8-detarco.162997/ nice story and femboys

Not into femboys so I didn't play this one.
I went through the files, and it only has like 6 animations even though the game appears to be pretty long.
I wasn't wowed by anything I saw.

 

[vendetta10]

is there any more recommendation??? pls

Personally not a fan of futa, so I opted to check it out by browsing the files instead of playing it.
The few animations I found seemed to be using the default koikatsu animations and were pretty haphazardly thrown together.
The models were quite interesting, but not enough to make the list with the state of those animations (I'm also 100% sure the dev didn't make those models).

I do very much appreciate the suggestion though!

Lol this games are not koikatsu. But a HoneySelect games.

 

[hreserves]

I don't really care if they make the list or not, I'm just here to shamelessly shill for my friends. All of these devs don't have anywhere near the support they deserve for the work they put out (Projekt Moon included).

Headpats & Handholding
Lost in You
Unto Starlight
Academy: Live!
Detached
Caramel Chain
Falling Stars

 

[EstrangeNS]

Seeing the Projekt Moon dev sad react to my post kinda broke my heart a bit.
My words were harsher than normal.
If you see this, I apologize.

Wow, some of those animations were quite well made, plus the models.
I'll have to look into a few more things, but its likely I'll add this one.

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

I know you said you don't care if they make the list or not, but I'm still gonna do my thing.

Headpats & Handholding

The models are good, but the animations aren't custom.

Lost in You

Basic models, and base koikatsu animations (though that first animation looks like it has deformation? I'm probably just seeing things).

Unto Starlight

This is one I am still actively playing/reviewing. (Normally I'll extract the images and look through them, but I don't want spoilers for this one lul)

Academy: Live!

I'm on the fence about the models, but the animations aren't bad and they have deformation. I'll need to think on this.

Detached

The female models are okay, but animations are default koikatsu.

Caramel Chain

Models are kinda basic, and no animations.

Falling Stars

Basic models, and while there might be a custom sex animation or two (not sure), they are buried in a sea of default koikatsu animations.

 

[Insomnimaniac Games]

The models are good, but the animations aren't custom.

I'll take it! The animations are basic, but I'm slowly improving. Baby steps.

 

[EstrangeNS]

I'll take it! The animations are basic, but I'm slowly improving. Baby steps.

I look forward to the day those baby steps put you on my stupid list among the best in graphical quality. I believe in you!

Apology accepted. I know my animations aren't the best. The vast majority of my main characters are indeed original made, it's why I take pride in the appearance of Serena and maybe some of what you see is the references to other characters in some designs like OG Serena is hard referencing a split between 2 VShojo vtubers. There are characters from other H Games I like or even Hentai shows (you probably noticed how I modified a version of Mari from Vampire Vixen and the Oni ChiChi girl in the early nightmare scene) as a whole that make appearances, but every main character NOT from the latest release was indeed a FULLY originally made character. I do make characters from a base model I made, but that was my own work and is just meant to streamline character creation, because as a part time dev with 8-16 hours a week to do Projekt Moon, time is money.

The fact you can only "endorse" 10 games should tell you how much work it takes to master timeline in Chara Studio to provide you with the animations you like... Appreciate each of those devs and leave them kind comments and support.

I also really fucking hate how you ignored Nyatd's work with the wrestling moves he has the girls do. It isn't sex, but Nyatd puts alot of work in his stuff. In the words of a certain someone... ACKNOWLEDGE HIM!

Anyway, thread re-ignored. You were unblocked, I also need to take my valerian I am a touch moody. Anywho... Good day.

The presence of parody characters is what led me to believe your models were not custom. It is a very common place devs cut corners and usually speaks toward the rest of their models. My bad on that one. I hope you can take my disbelief in your creation of the models as a complement to their quality at the very least.

I understand the work it takes to create high-quality models and animations, and that's exactly WHY I only endorse 10 games. There are dozens of MUCH more popular devs that only put in a fraction of the work visually (not that that makes them bad devs or anything, there's more to a game than visuals). I made this list to showcase the devs who went above and beyond to create truly stunning visuals.

It's hard to build someone up without unintentionally tearing someone down (for me at least). I feel a need to explain to the people who recommend games why I am not adding said games to the list. Maybe I should stop doing that if it's going to hurt people's feelings.

I did notice the custom fight animations. I just didn't mention them because I assumed they were from an asset pack or something. My brain went "If he could make animations this good, he would make custom sex animations". Still not sure why he doesn't.

I don't like your attitude in your last message, but I feel as if it likely comes from a place of passion so I'm choosing not to hold it against you. I have no bad blood towards you even if you dislike me. I'm always open to civil conversation to help me understand others and others understand me. Feel free to DM me, and we can try to understand each other.
