Okay I won't lie, I was half-expecting Chrome to have another last name like Alma Elma, like "Chrome Artiste Clemens" or something.

Elma isn't a surname. How do I know? Simple, in the original game she is always called Arumaeruma. Nobody calls her only Alma. In Japanese, there are no spaces to separate words, and people almost never call your name plus surname, they usually use surname-san or something. In conclusion, Elma isn't a surname, Rogue must have thought that it sounded better like a composite name, you don't see those in the US, but I'm sure you saw some of them in those Mexican soap operas, they are used a lot in Latin America.

Composite names are also widely used here (in feminine names almost always María followed by another name and in masculine José followed by another name, curious note: María José and José María)

I guess, I just find it hilarious that her last name is "Adams" of all things. "Alma Elma", as far as I can tell, is derived from the names "Alma" (derived from the Latin word Almus, meaning nourishing and kind [usually held in regards to women], but could also hint at her interest in combat due to it being used as a descriptor for war after the Battle of Alma during the Crimean War), and "Elma" (derived from the Italian and German word, meaning "nourishing/refreshing" and "helmet/protection" respectively), and as a result refers to her whole vibe as a comforting onee-san that sexually smothers her romantic partner, but will also beat someone down when completely necessary (like when she goes full Kratos on Hainuwele after pitying her pleasureless existence). So seeing these two uncommon names followed by a super common one like Adams (Hebrew for "Son of the Red Earth", in reference to Adam from the Bible being made from dirt, but concurrently refers to men or humanity in general) is just a little funny to me.
But yeah, we sometimes say the first and middle name together depending on the combo in the US too, like "Mary-Kate Olsen".

The translation of alma from Spanish to English is soul.

Oh, neat.

Also, the treehouse door has no collision; you can just go through it.

Decided to head back to the Pope's on the whim, and it looks like he can't be interacted with. Guess he got burned by Luka's rejection that hard or something.

As a matter of fact, the "Adams" I named her I took from Tania Adams. In C&C Red Alert 1 she is the Commando unit, you can even see her full name on her grave CGI when you lose her missions, but in later installments of the game, the surname vanishes completely, and she is just known as Special Agent Tania. Of course, a few decades pass from a game to another, so it couldn't be the same person, but even, so, Tania Adams sounds really cool, they should have kept it.

And considering she's one of the female counterparts of other games (I heard that the four evil generals of the last boss are a common trope in JRPGs, I didn't play many of them but I believe this is another reference to Dragon Quest, Tania is the female counterpart of the Commando from C&C Tiberium Dawn), and strong as hell, I think it's fitting. Besides Alma Elma Adams sounds nice.

Unknown Developer Alright my good sir, I just finished your little project and it took me 24 hours. I'm a slow player and tried to see as much as I could and get all those monster girl book entries. I would like to thank you for all the effort you put into this so far and I can't understand why some people talk it down or call it very bad.

I mean... we have Paradox with a fucked up timeline now and people have problems with your version where you changed a few things, added some extra stuff and made the outdated VN a bit more spicy? That's peasant's life for you, they won't eat what they don't know but whatever.

Alright, now let us start with what was good, bad and what could have some improvement imo. I put it into a spoiler box to prevent unwanted spoilers and to avoid a giant wall of text everyone has to see.^^

I hope this wasn't harsh or unfair and you can perhaps work with that to make things better. Looking forward for more build. =3

Just a couple things. There is a scene in the original VN where those villagers in Yamatai will ambush Luka while he's about to be "sacrificed", and Luka can decide to "attack" them (as it turns out, humans turn into scarecrows when they get Angel Halo'd. Who knew?).
It does get tedious hearing Luka say "Nope, sorry, my not!grandma said I can't snoo-snoo the catgirl" every time he gets propositioned, but at the same time, I can understand why he ultimately doesn't have full-on intercourse with them. "That" scene after that one dude gets "rock hard" wouldn't have as big of an impact if Luka had lost his "virginity" (in the sense he finally got his peen in a poon) to like, 6 other girls beforehand. My advice would be to add more variety to later scenes; some handjobs, some footjobs, some tail/flower jobs, maybe someone who *really* wants to skirt past the prohibition by suggesting anal (I can already imagine Luka's shocked face, lol); the sky's the limit. Oh yeah, and apparently Setouchi does commissions on

Hm, must have missed or forgot about the scarecrow part. Yes, I agree. More variation for the reward scenes is needed. No hora means no soul.

About the commissions... do you expect that he pays all of them while making no profit? Won't happen and I cant blame the man for that. Saint hour only happens if someone went crazy.

What could work is several people sharing the costs and communicate with the dev what's needed for the game. That would be awesome as hell but I'm already in wishland and this is stronk pirate forum.

Thanks for playing the game. I'm preparing a point by point answer to you review, but since it's too long, I'll post it later.

As for the discussion, I have some things to say. Even if I'm willing to commission art for the game, those commissions would be in US dollar, which is a problem because if I turn all my salary into dollars, I'd have U$ 200 each month. Real is very devaluated to the dollar, so for me to buy dollars to hire commissions is far too expensive. I'd have to look for national artists for that. Your idea, Porn_Jesus, is the most viable one since I'd prefer to not have direct contact with the money, among other reasons to be able to deny I received any profit with this game in case of DMCA (Yeah, I know that non-profiting stuff can also get DMCAed, but at least without involving money it reduces the chances of Torotoro coming after me, he isn't Nintendo after all). I'm just not sure how many people would be willing to do it, but we can try as we go. I didn't yet because at least for now, I didn't have any idea that could use said commissions. But a scene with Marie is totally on the table eventually.

It does get tedious hearing Luka say "Nope, sorry, my not!grandma said I can't snoo-snoo the catgirl" every time he gets propositioned, but at the same time, I can understand why he ultimately doesn't have full-on intercourse with them.

That's exactly why I decided to not have consensual vaginal sex before that scene, after that it's ok.

As for having variety, I must remind you that to have a new sex scene, besides the sex scene itself (with its variation, of course) I need to have a portrait for the girl and if possible the facesheet (the multiple expressions), and the scenario, which means replacing or adding someone into an existing one, or create one from zero (possibly a sidequest if the main quest don't fit). Handjobs/footjobs/flowerjobs are options, but I sincerely am not a big fan of the genre so the scenes I come up with would probably be subpar.

As for anal... Let's see, if you know a good game with monster girls which have anal, tell me, because I do not. MGQ has two maybe three anal scenes, Violate Hero has none, Desire Dungeon has none, Drain Dungeon has one in each game, which I already intended to use but later, Monster Girl Encyclopedia (from where Ruby and Isis came from) has none. In general, in my experience, monster girl games tend to not have much anal at all. Though I think anal is too close to real sex for me include before that scene, I still think it kills the impact.

I'm trying to vary it as I can though. Ruby and Isis's scene is long tongue licking, the brownies' is a double blowjob, Anastacia's is a titblowjob too. I'm trying to find more options to avoid repetition as I can, but I admit that the idea of consensual scenes is really recent, and I haven't searched for many games to find them. I have already extracted the assets of the games I just mentioned, plus Paradox, of course, and I'm using them for now, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't use assets from other games.

As for games I'd be willing to... "Borrow" assets, I'd prefer they'd be 5+ years old so out the profitable window, or at least not having an official translation, and, as such, not profitable here anyway. Or be called Violated Hero because it's a waste of good art. If you guys have any suggestions, please, tell me. If the game is untranslated, please post a link to it too. My PC is ready to play Japanese games, or just post a link to the CG gallery in the e-hentai or something.

Hey thank you, I wasn't expecting an answer from you. After I posted my wall of text I thought to myself... "he most likely knows all that and is miles ahead of your silly thought process but hey, he might laugh a little and think you are dumb".^^

Nothing wrong with that if it would have been the case. Making a honest worker laugh is better than nothing, I guess.

Oof, I'm honored to read you will comment my big post in detail. Looks like it wasn't completely useless and if only a tiiiiny bit helps you in some way I can pat myself a little bit on my back. X3

As I said... you shouldn't be the one who invests in this project. Your own free time is already more than enough since you have to work 8 or more hours each day to make a living. It just crossed my mind that this could work but there are several problems.

1. the amount of people who abandoned their projects (some had valid reasons, other were scammers, some disappeared) makes it hard for people to donate money or artworks to a project that is still wip and not created by well known person who finished several projects before
2. this is not the best forum to hope for charity
3. our famous heroes, who talk everything into the ground before playing, have a negative impact on point one

Anyway... I hope you stay disciplined in working when you have time without sufferings to your private life and having fun doing all this. Never do something that annoys or exhausts you greatly and pretend you still want that. But I'm sure you know that better than me. =3

is it on hold or abandoned? been a while since last uptade? also its gonna take like 2 years for it to finish huh

It was updated a few months ago and it's taking a while because it's being made by the dude for free as a passion project.

Hey. I decided to go and grind in the library after the fact, but not only are the book girls all gone, a non-interactable Alice is just standing there.

I have to admit, I think most of the game that are made in nowdays are focused on making money,find a game made by someone just because he have passion for some game franchise makes me very happy at same time that makes me concerned about project abandonment because there's nothing holding him to continue the project only his will and passion, in this kind of situation all can do is pray for the best and maybe some good feedbacks.

 

[KgokuK]

do they have diferent scenes to paradox? or is it the same characters and game

Think there's some sort of flag error. I didn't even visit the trial, I'm just messing around, visiting everything but the main quest I'm supposed to be doing.
