just tell a lesbian woman's story, or even better - a story with a lesbian protagonist.

This is incredibly easy to do btw.
Step 1: write a character
Step 2: write a story
Step 3: make said character female and lesbian
In the end the things that make a good story are universal and independent of gender and sexual orientation. The specifics may change, but the broad strokes are still the same.

but I do know it's secondary, or at least can be carried by narrative.

Spot on with that one btw. My renders suck but people seem to be very forgiving if you can give them a story that they like, way more forgiving than I expected.

These are the steps porn writers tend to fail. It's fine if they're relying entirely on the visual quality of their sex scenes (or game mechanics if there are any). But, around here, we're mostly talking about VNs made by hobbyists and small indies. Usually, they can't compete with higher budgets and the expertise that brings. So the writing is what would make up for the lack of high visual quality.

Nah for real ... Stop talking yourself down the whole time, your renders are far off the "typical standard nonsense low raze DAZN models".
And beside that your storytelling is actually quite good, you created different personalities and a great comic relief imo (Sir Francis :love:).

And don't think people just sub and follow your game because it's lesbian based ( sure some might try it out because of that - but they stay for the chars and humour).

So nah creating a lesbian focused game is not as easy as it seems ...

And I assume you live in the US, right? I didn't know that things were so oppressive, I'm Brazilian and I've always been very open about my sexuality, there were rare cases where someone bothered me because of my sexuality, maybe it's because I'm not much of a person who goes to closed places with a lot of people, but I've never been uncomfortable in shoppings and restaurants, which are the places I frequent most, even though I'm with my girlfriend. People here tend to be more aggressive against gays, exactly from what you said, for the majority we are bisexual and we either stay with men even though we have a girlfriend or we are used as a fantasy for men who want to have sex with two women.

No, not an American, but like in America, it changes from city to city, hell, even from street to street; one moment, you are in the cool metal cafe; one wrong turn and you are in drug dealer city, or worse, the conservative part of town. But yeah, here, as well, gay men usually get the more violent end of the stick.

As the cuckoo in the head Lesbian, I can say it is shitty when the MC somehow prefers Dick when I literally pick the worse option when the game forces me to interact with male LI. Sure, MC can be bisexual, but at least add a trigger to your game that notices that my MC literally always picks the worst option when male in sight or makes the MC slowly change based on the love interest they choose, because, as a writer, I can say that people keep forgetting that your relationship will change you, whether it is for the better or the worse. So MC liking Dick is not my "Ok, I will stop moment." If the game has good writing and the MC's way of thinking changes the longer they date the female lead, I will still play it. At least it is not a "Surprise Rape" or "Surprise Straight Sex" on your face moment, and players are not given a choice to avoid the scene. Like fucking hell, if someone tries to rape me, I would bite their dick off first to death as first choice and if i can't i will simply kill myself.

On one hand, the quote on quote "Lesbian" game is, as you said, part of male fantasy. But I will say that even if the writer is a lesbian, that doesn't mean it will be a good "Lesbian" game. Why do you ask? Simple. FUCKING POLITICS RUIN EVERYTHING!!! SOMEHOW, A LOT OF GAY PEOPLE THINK IT IS A GOOD IDEA TO SLAP POLITIC INTO A LESBIAN GAME!?!?!?

I will tell you something that will be surprising for people with this kind of thinking. The ones that will play or buy your gay ass game will also be gay ass people or people that support being gay.
YOUR MESSAGE DID NOT REACH THE PEOPLE THAT NEED TO CHANGE THEIR MIND ABOUT THE STATE OF THING!. BECAUSE STRAIGHT PEOPLE PLAY STRAIGHT GAMES!?!?!? GOD WHAT A PLOT TWIST ISN'T IT?!?!?!? Who would have thought that Gay/Lesbian game is played by Gay/Lesbian People or People that support Gay Relationship!?!?

Of course, there are still some straight people who just want to jack off to it, but they only see it as a jack-off and nothing else. The chance of a game reaching closet gay or lesbian people who will join in on your political movement is extremely rare.

I DON'T WANT TO BE REMINDED ABOUT FUCKING POLITIC IN MY FUCKING GAY ASS GAME!!! YEAH SURE JUST REMIND SOMEONE IN A COUNTRY WHERE BEING GAY IS PURE HERESY OF HIGHEST ORDER!
Surprisingly I'm not joking in this, some country really treat gay (and trans) people as a Heretic that sold their soul to the Devil.

Like sure if the Devil can really give me a Lesbian Succubus I would sold my soul in the moment but nope, we are in real life where the the Devil are pussy ass coward that never give cool deal to people.

Personally I don't trust a game that label themselves "Lesbian" Game. I only trust a game that label themself as "Yuri" Game. Why? Because people that stample their game as "Yuri" game prefers the Japanese Way to handle Lesbian, It is a cruel yet bittersweet or just plain cute sweet, and they never bring politics or rant like a lunatic on why "Woman shouldn't be treated this way", I FUCKING GET IT, IT SUCKS BUT I PLAY THIS SHIT TO RELAX NOT GET DRAGGED TO POLITICS AGAIN! EVEN IF THAT POLITICS BENEFIT ME OR SOME SHIT.

I don't care if you are a real lesbian or some dude with a lesbian fetish or a translesbian JUST DON'T FUCKING REMIND ME OF POLITICS.

I play Yuri Game as Escapism. I lived in a shitty country with a shitty religion and shitty people, so I want to escape that.

And if you are asking me why I'm still in this shitty country...

Once a Coward is always a Coward, yet this mere Canary in a Cage always stares into the Sky and Dreams of the Sky above.
Yet despite the Rusty Lock of its Cage, the Canary still foolishly stares into the Sky without trying to break its Rusty Lock.




Sorry for depresso rant.

I hear you. With these algorithmically enforced echo chambers we have on every single app, it seems like everybody is just preaching to the choir nowadays. I will say that I don't think lgbtq matters should have anything to do with politics... Americans lost sight of that, and now it's all their politics is about. Remember when it used to be about taxes?

BenHatira is right. You are selling yourself short. When it comes to renders, I don't know the grades of quality, but I can tell you that every frame feels animated and filled with personality. The character designs and outfits are wonderful as well, perhaps the best I've seen from a 3d game on this site.

As for your writing, you avoid a lot of the trappings so many beginners fall for. Your characters are distinct and have unique, easily distinguishable voices. You don't stretch out scenes too long or cut them too short. Your scene transitions are quick and snappy, and you don't assume the reader has the reading comprehension of a toddler. I usually find myself rewriting games in my head as I play them or loudly complaining about the poor readability and dialog structuring to my girlfriend, but with this game, I barely found myself doing that.

tl;dr, you should be proud of what you made; it took real creativity and skill.

oh you definitely could have. It didn't help that when I saw it, it was march 31 in my part of the world. I just assumed patreon thought that they were not getting a good enough deal so they sued( or threatened I guess) on behalf of the people from their site. In doing so they managed to either come to a deal of just relinquish the property to them so they don't bleed the site in court or something like that.

If you can't tell business isn't my area of expertise and I tend to have a more pessimistic view about it.

personally, at the beginning i also fell for it, i'm from latin america and here we don't celebrate april fools, the closest thing is the "dia de los santos inocentes" (day of the holy innocents) that we celebrate on december 28.

but then i read that on patreon they were very excited to have the "ntr discussions" on their platform so i remembered the existence of april fools.

it was quite well done actually, I can only imagine what a patreon f95 would have been like with besides saying goodbye to piracy, we would have games full of censorship (landladys supremacy) and games full of exclusive content for patreons.

Anyway. I find something that look "Lesbian-Ish" when looking at Yaharr Website. Basically 4 Girls is playing erotic DND.
You must be registered to see the links

Probably test the Yaharr version tomorrow.

Well, it can technically be "purely lesbian," I guess, but that is not really up to the player. Your decisions and dice rolls are as likely to lead you into a lesbian sex scene as it does to a straight or bisexual one. You have no say in whether those scenes play out or not, and there is no indicator your actions will make them happen.

Besides the art, the game is not really worth it. Bad writing, bad voice acting, narative might be good, but I wouldn't know since I skipped all the dialogue after the first few choices. The mechanic is kinda interesting; both failing and succeeding can lead to a scene, and there aren't really any negatives to failing until the last die roll (only the final choice and final die roll affect which ending you get.) That being said, the more you fail, the harder it is not to fail, and vice versa. Oh, and the gallery doesn't work.

Here is the link if you wanna check it out anyway.

I asked May's Summer Vacation dev about possibility of full yuri playthrough, and he said that you will be able to choose what kind of content you want to see, so probably it is a good candidate for list, but at same time content wise its another 0.000001 porn game with 5~ cg, so I would wait and see how it will goes from here.
