I really like how this developer adds small quality of life improvements with each new game. It shows he wants to make each one better than the last. The improvement I would like to see the most is a more fleshed out choice system. Mirage Defection gives you the illusion of choice, but it all comes crumbling down when you realize that every scene is self-contained and is not affected by earlier choices. The scenes themselves are great, but it doesn't feel like I earned them. NTR is all about corruption and escalation, it feels weird if you can avoid every corruption scene but still choose the NTR ending. The developer is clearly aware of this, since the game warns you it might not make sense based on your decisions, so I hope he is working on it.
I actually prefer the way he does choices. Its a narrative over gameplay decision. Yeah you can see every NTR scene and still get the good ending, because narratively you can come back from the brink of destruction. Alternatively you could hold out and remain strong at the start, only to fail and become corrupted at the final hour. You're being given the choice of how the story of corruption or perseverance plays out.

You know obviously this would be great but on a first play through you don't know this (which is why not being fucking spoiled is so important). On a first play through I was so anxious most of the time (to me one of the appeals of Male MC in an NTR - which is why male MC's should be likeable). But same as you, I was disillusioned when on the last days the game was literally like "pick your route" despite having above and beyond to make sure nothing bad was happening lol

So I agree - obviously choices should matter - even if there is only a few endings maybe you get totally different events, etc.

But the illusion of choice is good too!

Don't get me wrong, I also prefer it when games allow me to play them in different ways. I love building my own narrative, but the problem is that events don't build on each other. Being able to resist for most of the game only to give in in the end or doing the opposite are very interesting ways to play in my opinion, I only wish the game ackowledged that. There should be event variations based on previous choices. A good example would be the night where Leo finds out about Eviru, if you haven't triggered any sex events but have triggered all other events you should get a different version of the event that ackowledges this is their first time having sex or maybe a version where she's giving him a blowjob or something.

Can anyone tell me, how to reduce lag in joiplay. I play this game on joiplay it is very lag
good question, you can't.

there is a way but you can't open save or load menu, it will be error. And we knew this game have some spot in story (usually when go to bed) that open save menu automatically.

"I was going to explain the situation in detail, but I'll just keep it simple.


That kind of comment is exhausting to read every time. ('◡')


I'm happy that you're interested in the game, but it's tough having to carefully think over how to reply every single week when I get a notification about your comment. So from now on, I’m going to stop responding to every single question just for the sake of clearing up doubts.


Maybe I’m misunderstanding things, but for me, Ci-en is the only oasis where I can check in on fellow creators and interact with them. Please let me maintain that kind of environment. I was starting to lose motivation to post updates.


So then—who’s doing this, you might ask?


It seems like it’s someone from overseas. They always leave comments in Japanese, but they keep asking these interview-style questions, and I just can’t get a read on their sense of distance.


Go interact with a creator who seems to have more time or emotional bandwidth. Why do you keep coming back to Chima Lab over and over again? "

Can whoever this is/these people are stop spamming the dev with endless questions? This is absolutely annoying behaviour regardless of who the dev is. All your questions will be answered when the game releases so stop being up their ass 24/7.


You're not 5, just keep your panties in a bunch and wait.

while it seems the progress on the game development wasn't much since the end of march
We have to keep in mind that the reason for that is the game is no longer being developed on a small scale and while it's still smaller the 2nd game it is actually bigger than the first one now, a lot of content was being added to the point the developer needed to change the title from "crypt mini" to this:

Sounds great honestly. Hope there's Luna content as well.
