Even though its AI, I'm really enjoying this game's art. Can anyone recommend any other games that have AI art as good as this one?

This isn't really the place to ask for suggestions, but there are quite a few AI cg games around.
I would recommend My New Girlfriend

You're right of course! I'm just a big fan of this game! But it would be funny if the developer was able to delay his child's birth! Imagine how angry his wife would be!

I'm glad the dev take all this comments in a good way hahaha

Who do you think Suzie is based one.

yea, no sweat. asking "what AI did you use?" is one of those questions where it's actually extremely complicated to answer. having watched BCG's production video and working with AI art myself, the gist is:

- generate images using stable diffusion (a locally-running instance of an AI model)
- spend a lot of time in photoshop making them look good, compositing, fixing faces, fingers and clothes
- train loras and custom models to minimize #2 as much as possible, but knowing that some manual tweaking will always be necessary (and will be the largest time expense in any good project)
- animations and writing are done 100% manually

if you are interested in generating AI images yourself with stable diffusion, you gotta start with youtube and watch a few hours worth of videos before you can even start, really. it's not very straightforward

Wow, thank you so much! I'll take your advice and check out those videos, thanks!

Think I'll add this to my steam collection when it comes out.

I read the reviews and part of the discussion, got the impression that the game is loved by those who prefer to avoid passive cuck MCs. I still get an uneasy feeling when, after a day pushing your girl to be lewd with other guys, you wake up at night, get a hard-on, talk to her - she sounds only half-asleep, replies to you and all - and decide not to fuck her, but instead jerk off to her naked ass while thinking about her with other guys. That makes me a little uneasy for things to come... I'd have liked the option to fap or fuck. Stands a bit like flirting with cuckoldry... Without wanting to sound like I didn't enjoy the game - pretty good, actually - this kind of thing is a turnoff for me when I don't know which way the game will go in the future. I'm totally ok with HER denying him while doing stuff with others, just for teasing, but not a fan of denial in their private life, whether it's the MC self-denying or her, on top of her getting all sorts of close to other guys. I guess I'm a fan of some sort of balance or tethered ride, sharing and mutual teasing is my comfort zone in dynamics, any form of chastity, even the MC getting more turned on from watching or thinking about his girl with others than actually making sweet love with her, just turns me off.
BananaCreamGames you have a great game, you can chastise me as the whiner that I am right now, but don't let my nagging interfere with your vision. This is just me having to put a very specific something out of my system! Your game offers so much good stuff, really thanks for that.

Good overview. The result here is pretty good, though. I can't say I've looked at hundreds of games with AI art, but this seems like one of the best. I also tried fiddling with SD to very mediocre results, and have a sense of the work involved, the number of iterations and the overhead in the electricity bill. AI imaging done with this quality means as much creative effort and time put into it as any other art. It's a means of expression and the result ultimately depends on how faithfully the author requires the results to match their vision.

Sorry about the slight off-topic! Take it as a positive review of the art in this game, though.

In that scene the MC explains why he doesn't fuck her, it's because she's asleep and he doesn't want to wake her.

In that scene the MC explains why he doesn't fuck her, it's because she's asleep and he doesn't want to wake her.

This is the problem when too many harem fantasies make fucking passed out people everyday fare.

I get what reidanota is saying that denial in their personal life leaves a bad taste and skews the relationship in a way I don't want it either; but I hardly think that scene qualifies.

 

[reidanota]

denial in their personal life leaves a bad taste and skews the relationship in a way I don't want it either; but I hardly think that scene qualifies.

I don't disagree, the bad taste came likely from a combination of factors: the entire day Susy was flirting with other guys, promising dates, getting eaten by a drunk guy, dry-humped by a policeman and that's all great. They (barely) get home, so drunk they go straight to bed, and then the MC wakes up and jerks off to sleeping Suzy after reading her dirty convo on the phone. Maybe if it there hadn't been all that build-up, the scene wouldn't have felt the way it did, but with the build-up, it was just anticlimactic for an end of episode. It just leaves a sour taste of cuckoldry that makes you wonder if more of that is on the menu for the future.

I didn't mean I'd enjoy that he'd fucked her passed out - they had just had a conversation about the phone messages. If the author wanted (and I'm not implying they should have done it) that conversation could have led to Suzy waking up horny. Would be a better "temporary ending" until another update than a jerk-off... imho.

 

[blkcrow20]

It didn't feel that way to me and I am no fan of cuckoldry.

 

[Eleanorduval]

It didn't feel that way to me and I am no fan of cuckoldry.

u can read in dev note The game can be put into the 'NTS' genre.

Choices. As Anon, you will be able to make choices that affect your relationships, but this will not be full-blown, 50 different endings type of choice. Isn t that bad

 

[blkcrow20]

Yes, it is NTS. I am aware of that. I've been playing it since it came out. But NTS does not equal cuckoldry automatically.

 

[wmrxd]

Just one question: Will the MC also have scenes with other women or will it only be the FMC? I found the art very beautiful but I have this doubt. I like more games where both partners have fun.

there are already scenes where the MC can cheat on his girlfriend in the game. the FMC is only teasing and some very minor sharing so far though

I actually get turned on when a LI denies the MC sex, even if she was just with another man.

Even better if she only lets me eat her out like a good boy does.
