Recommending Lesbian Protagonist Games List (My Version)

[rambool]

Beach Glass is lookin good, MC model is super cute, yeah, but you know this game gives off this "couple_updates_then_abandoned"-vibes.

 

[CrazyDriver]

I think I'm going slowly insane.
apparently this game has a lesbian path.

If any of you have tried it, can anyone share their thoughts?

~Thank you

Taken from the developer notes:

"Paths and choices: since this game started as a learning exercise, it begins more like a kinetic novel. As I learned more about development, I've gradually added in choices and paths primarily in the second half. For those looking to curate your experience with a plethora of options or choices, this is not that kind of game. Is there a pure-lesbian, no-dicks path? As the game is now (v0.8), I'll say no. That's because part of the MC's immutable journey is in self-discovery and part of that includes males - however, you are given choices to pursue things down a more lesbian, bi, or het gradient as the game progresses. As of now, the MC isn't forced into any sex or romance with any character nor do I plan to. And as always, all of this may change as development continues."

From what I've read the problem is that the mc(& friends) is constantly talking about guys and how exciting she finds them so you really can't play her as lesbian.

I say it is a big NO. Yeah, the only mandatory sex scene is femMC+female, but there is waaay too much thinking about dicks, posing naked for (old) dudes and other het stuff. Kinda 9-het/1-lesbian ratio overall.
And by playing it you can definitely say where it is all going - to miles of dicks in future updates.

yeah, they change it. Two day ago it was something else.

So far I like the visuals quite a bit more than the story or the writing. Some scenes and animations have a very cinematic quality to them, the characters have distinctive designs and are very expressive, and the world feels vivid and real.

I hope the story becomes more engrossing in future updates. I think the dialogue could use some improvement -- it feels rather awkward in places. So far, Hart is the character/LI who interests me the most; I'm curious to find out what she's really on the run from.

We should mention that the MC, Bea, walks in on her friend hooking up with a guy at a party so there is an unavoidable voyeuristic straight scene. It's VERY brief and intended to be more comedic than erotic, but it's also the most sexually explicit scene in the game so far since Bea's chance for a hookup of her own doesn't go so well.

damnedfrog posted while I was writing this and summarized everything well. Here's the dev's post about there being straight content to come; they say there's only one route with optional scenes and dialogue so there's no telling if there will really be a lesbian route. Bea's friend suggests Bea is canonically bi in one of their conversations so I'm thinking it's much too early to add to the list at least until the dev clarifies further.

OtterFly reply to my question about lesbian/straight contents here
For what I understand, the straight content should be optional. But this could change if they think it's needed for the story.

So, difficult to say if this game should be listed here.
But give the quality of it, I will play it anyway.

Thank you for asking the question and sharing the update with us! We'll have to start calling you Ace Investigative Reporter damnedfrog from now on .

It sounds like it's quite possible there will be a lesbian route, but it's not guaranteed. I'm a little surprised the dev is still uncertain about something major like that, but every artist works differently I suppose...

To clarify, her being bi is more incidental. I am more interested in writing about her relationships with women, which is in the foreground of the story through to the end. So, up to you if it fits the category of lesbian or not, I didn't have specific tags or labels for the game in mind when i was planning and writing it.

Lured in by the crazy-hot protagonist, I gave it a go. Visuals are absolutely top quality. Truly amazing. But if you want to appeal to lesbian game enjoyers, I'd strongly advise you to make that blowjob scene (and any future male content) optional. There's not much point in making her a lesbian if there's unavoidable het content in it because the question then becomes who are you trying to appeal to? Always happy to talk shop about this stuff. Get yourself a game dev tag so you can benefit from the endless complaints about negative reviews and arguments about NTR wisdom and insight in the dev forum ^^

grab rpg maker for free, draw something lewd in paint (het example), v.0.01 release, get badge, abandon on v.0.03 claiming your artist divorcing you making you unable to maintain the art quality and not wanting to compromise on your artistic vision (the delay in abandonment is so it doesn't look like you're doing it just to get the badge).

The 20-day free trial should allow you to put in way more effort than some of the 0.1s out there...

 

[damnedfrog]

draw something lewd in paint

Holy shit!
I wasn't mentally prepared for that quality of game.
OtterFly has quite a challenger here in matter of renders and animations.

That's how a veteran speaks

Hey, Trinian. There's an extra topic I'd like to introduce. Don't know if you like this topic, but I trust you, so I'll go on anyway : How do YOU(or the GENERAL Western yuri/lesbian fan community) think of the certain Japanese gal games scene where two heterosexual(maybe bi?) girls are having sex?

Such scenes have 3 possible scenarios based on my personal experience and observation:


1. The two are het but intimate friends, one of which is teaching another some tips in sex so as to please boys.

2. One is the female MC, and another one is an antagonist. The antagonist girl is having sex(maybe BDSM to dominate the MC) with the MC to have fun, but both of which also suck dicks so hard.

3. One of the girl claims to be bi. Another one, however, claims to be straight. The bi girl confesses love to the het girl, and gets laid with the het girl, while the het girl saying"Oh we are both girls, we can't do thatttt"

I'm an Asian. In my community, all mentioned above are strongly opposed and disliked by yuri/lesbian fans. I don't know if foreign community reacts the same way?
If it seems too big to speak of the "WHOLE COMMUNITY" , may I ask your personal view

1. I only like this one if it turns out that this was all a pretense because one or both were too nervous/unsure of her feelings. It has to end with them realizing that the person she truly wanted was the friend and so they end up in a relationship with no more thoughts of a guy.

2. I hate this scenario if it involves a guy. I like enemies to lovers or just good old fashioned hate fucking.(there's a good doujin series with a similar premise that I love.)

3. This is ok if the "straight" girl realizes she's actually a lesbian or bi.

Yeah, this sort seems kinda..."primitive". The sex is about conquering. A toxic woman is having sex with another woman only to manifest that she's in power. I'm speaking of Oboro from Taimanin series. We definitely can't say that Oboro had affection to Asagi, but we do see them having sex with one another.

 

[baxtus]

All those scenarios only interest me if the girls end up leaving the guys and becoming Lesbian or Bi (think how Legend of Korra ended with Korra and Asami being bisexuals but in a permanent relationship with only each other)

As a resident Lunatic, I can say that all of your scenario make me imagine with one of the girls get addicted into it and wish to make the other straight girl to be as gay as her... Good ol Yuricorruption. Feck Yurification, I want to corrupt straight girl to be a Lesbian.
