Why does the story need the protagonist to fight off mercenaries? You're missing my point entirely. I don't relate at all to a story about crime, gangs, evil organizations, paramilitaries, etc. It's a complete waste when what I came here for was a story about family and incest. You don't start with a solution (being an assassin) and the come up with problems (needing to fight hardened professional killers).
I would say the bigger problem is that most devs horribly fail to make a good story involving organized crime or military etc and combine that with other thems as incest or worse college.
Or worse if they try to involve heavy themes as depression, suicide, rape etc. Not many devs whith good enough writing skills to make something good or halfway believable out of it.

I still can't think of a single one that is good. Maybe De Luca had some quality at one point? Don't remember any other game, of the top of my head, which is weird, since its so often tried.

Back OT, anyone actually tried the game, is there any potential? :unsure:

I haven't yet. It seems like there's some bugs and other issues, and I usually wait a couple updates at least as a rule for most games.

Yeah, I've noticed a lot more new devs putting out games with less than quality coding done.

Hello everyone, this is the DEV speaking! :)

First of all, a big thank you for all your constructive feedback!
I read every comment and take everything to heart. ❤ Let me share a bit of the backstory.

The concept and initial development of this game began about three years ago. During that time, I spent two years in the military. After "completing" my service, I upgraded my computer and resumed work on the project. For me, 3D art is a whole new world. I started developing this game as a passion project because I genuinely enjoy learning and trying out new things.

I just set up a Patreon page two days ago for those who want to support the game. As some of you might know, assets can be very expensive—I’ve already invested $800 of my own money into this hobby! Most of the progress, however, has been made over the past three months. I released the game for free so I could gain different perspectives and feedback.

Since I’ve been working on this for so long and have played through it countless times, I’ve become blind to some of the issues, gaps, or inconsistencies. To find people who might be interested in helping me write or beta test, I decided to take this approach. In hindsight, this feedback makes so much sense and is incredibly helpful to me! Thank you!

About the Game:

After reading the feedback, I’ll likely take some time to revise the game. Who knows, maybe someone out there would like to join the project! :D
Now, I’ll address some specific questions:

  1. There will be no “feel-bad stuff” like NTR. My goal is to build a slow, familial connection between the characters. There won’t be immediate sex scenes—maybe for some side characters, but we’ll see. As for the issue with "landlady" not being editable, I’ll need to investigate that because it worked fine on my end. Thanks to Trikus for pointing out a fix; I’ll address it soon!
  2. I don’t want the MC’s problems to intertwine too heavily with the family. There will be connections, but the main characters won’t be overly involved or frequently tied to the central plot.
  3. Introduction: The characters moved in with the MC rather quickly, and it might feel a bit rushed. I wasn’t sure if players wanted to see this part or jump straight into the story.
  4. Yes, the MC has special abilities, but they are not supernatural. My inspirations here are American Sniper and One Piece. (Yes I know One Piece is supernatural but I mean the "God like part" ---> Therese always someone stronger)
  5. UI: I’ll revise the UI based on your feedback but won’t add a quick-navigation option to skip everything just yet. Maybe for larger events in the future. I still want it to feel like a game with some challenges, especially when it comes to finding the special renders.
  6. Feel free to participate, share your ideas, and have an influence on the project. If I like your suggestions, I’ll incorporate them, but the final decision will always be mine. If someone doesn’t like this approach, they don’t have to play the game! :D
Thank you all once again!

Because the dev's story involves him fighting off mercenaries?

Might as well ask why the story "needs" the protagonist to have a gorgeous mom and 2-3 sisters- answer is "because that's what this story is about".

The Dev has made a game the way he like to make it. If you're not satisfied with the product, fuck off an play some other game! It's not like there's not an abundance of games to play, and it's not for the Dev to abide any wishes from the users, he would have to make hundreds of versions, so quit the whining!

Dude came hard out of nowhere, why do so many folks on this forum say this all the time? How about you don’t speak for the dev who literally three posts above yours says the exact opposite? Literally the developer saying that people on the forums participating in feedback is what they want, but you come hard like you know better than the dev?

So relax my dude. Have a bit of humility and grace. No sense getting involved in a conversation that you weren’t even part of so aggressively, :cautious:

You seem to be the one missing the point.

The game tells you the character is a retired assassin and is going to get pulled back into the underworld.

If all you are after is a story about family and incest then common sense says this aint for you.......

if thats the case......
do yourself a favor and get rid of that sandbox shit before going further.
i´d say that is currently your biggest problem and will even get bigger in the future if you invest to much time in making a sandbox game especially if you are new in game developing you should not start with an sandbox game without experience.
believe me it is better without it because roughly 80-90 percent of the AVN players hate sandbox games.
it must really have a tremendous story before some people would endure sandbox...

Good Luck...
