I just saw the new art on the patreon page and i like it a lot more. I'll just wait for a couple of updates to see where the game is going and then ill pledge for sure. It looks promising.

Damn.
Same here. Oddly enough I only played it yesterday and was really impressed...
Still a good game but, somehow now I know this - not as good as I thought.
I strongly disagree with judging GGGB on that basis.
Even with pictures as a basis for most drawings, the art style still blows most other adult games out of the water; it has its creepy bits where proportions seem off etc. but it follows a solid realist design which I'll take any day of the week over the countless bad comic-style and failed realist-style games. And let's not pretend that making these images is effortless - it still takes a while to get them done, even with a picture to work with, so it's not like she's scamming people; she still puts in a fair bit of her own sweat into the game's art (though I would agree that the way she puts it on her Patreon could be seen as intentionally misleading).
And the main selling point of the game, its writing and branching story, is entirely her work and design, as far as I know. And it's good, better than the writing in most popular games around here; the writing in, say, SuperPowered is so incredibly bland (especially for the sex scenes) that whenever I play it again, some six versions after the last time, I ask myself why I even bothered. Obviously, that particular example has some interesting aspects to it in terms of mechanics, scope, story... but the writing is certainly not its strongest point.
Writing even one small scene can take a while from first draft to final reading; so can finding (and in this case also: creating) the images for the scene. Players will probably not linger there for more than a couple of minutes but make no mistake - the scene you just read and looked at took hours to create. More if the author created variants to take your earlier decisions into account, even if a lot of players may never see these variants.
It's a lot of work; it's fun but it takes time, even on the best of days. So, as far as I'm concerned, EvaKiss is welcome to continue with that use of images, as long as the overall design and quality of her game content remains solid - no need for her to work herself to death when she's doing a good job this way.
Which brings me to "Life of Kiki": The art is hideous, there's just no other way to put it. It's not quite as bad as that weird One Piece wannabe game that was posted a couple of days ago but with a realist style like this, you have to know what you're doing (also something that speaks for EvaKiss and her use of the images). The few examples in the OP are all off, too much so to ignore. I don't know anything about the writing but the art alone would keep me from trying the game.

I really like this. It is a good start and I hope it will continue.

I didnt like the art and most importantly i didnt like the writing, that is the best part of gggb, while this one feels so unimmersive...
But from what i understand the game is being remade, new art and possibly a bit more effort into writing and plot. It looks promising, i have hope.

I think the new version has lost some of the GGGB ripoff flavor. And that's good.
I like the art (I mean, it's far from perfect, but it has its charms).
The writing is somewhat average - a little rushed. But still, it works for now: I'm waiting to see how it handles more complex situations.
As for the branching, it's still early to know... I hope the options won't be just "Do you want to see some ecchi or not?" as is the case in the majority of the games (and in that regard i think GGGB is still unsurpassed, by far).

Plagiarism on a Pirate site? What is the world coming to? Lol
What I found most disturbing was her getting frisky with Uncle Ruckus.
Why do you people always blame the new games when they are similar to other games ? Just because this game looks sinilar to GGGB it doesn't mean the game is bad. Your negative comments will not make anything better. Please be supportive for the devs. They put significant amount of effort to their games whether you like the game or not.
I would love a GGGB Clone. Why should i hate a second GGGB? More to play and enjoy.
The problem is, that the first drawings were really bad and also the writing.

Art was a bit better in this update, though that taxi driver was one ugly looking fucker. Though maybe that was the point? Anyway despite the art improvement I feel in terms of story this was a step backwards. The previous update had you getting to the sisters house and stuff happening there, this is just a few scenes in an airport or whatever. I will definitely keep my eye on this still though. If it can capture even a fraction of the magic of GGGB it'll end up being a decent game.
