Hello! As a developer with over 6 years of experience making adult games, I'd love to hear your thoughts on Netorare (NTR) elements, since I'm incorporating them into my next project. My upcoming game will blend Romance and NTR in a controlled sandbox style, where the story evolves based on LOVE/NTR points you accumulate. It includes a babysitting mechanic and skill-check gameplay. I'm not here to criticize anyone's favorite games—sometimes even flawed ones have standout features that make them special for certain players.
I've played a wide range of highly regarded titles, from Japanese to Western devs, and in my view, people tend to enjoy:
Lately, I've noticed that even with these popular NTR tropes in mind, many devs stick to overused motifs. Things like lewd crests or viruses that corrupt your LIs overnight without tying into gameplay, or super simplistic choices like "Leave her (NTR)" vs. "Don't leave her (Love)."
TL;DR for NTR fans: Do you find it acceptable to have so many simplistic games where your LIs fall after just a few minutes of play? Or do you mostly play them for a quick fap?
If you're curious about the game I'm developing, you can check out the game thread here for more details. As I mentioned, it features more complex mechanics than a standard title, but nothing overly frustrating that would hinder your progress at every turn. The project has been in development for two years now, and I'll be shifting to full-time work on it in about two months. I'm posting here to get feedback and see if I'm missing anything important.
The game will remain free until the core mechanics are fully polished and stable. In its current state, it may include game-breaking bugs, save file corruption, or severe imbalances, so I don't want anyone paying for a broken product.
I'd appreciate your thoughts: Is my vision for the game on the right track, or am I overcomplicating things? Would simpler choices—like straightforward "NTR yes" or "NTR no" options—be a better approach?

I've played a wide range of highly regarded titles, from Japanese to Western devs, and in my view, people tend to enjoy:
- Gameplay-driven NTR events: These occur when you mess up or fail skill checks, leading to NTR events or gaining NTR points.
- Natural progression in a realistic environment: Avoid shortcuts like "lewd crests," "he has a big cock, so I must suck it now," or "my husband is sick, so I need to suck 20 cocks." No instant corruption over one night—at least let players witness the gradual corruption through repeatable events that start innocently (like talking) and build to lewder ones. These can be hidden or open, but they should feel organic.
- Male POV focus: I personally don't vibe with NTR games featuring a female lead, as they often just feel like standard corruption games. Or if a female-lead game has an NTR tag, it's rarely about genuine cheating on a loved one and instead devolves into "fucking the whole village" with dual protagonists.
- Discoverable sex scenes: You have to uncover your Love Interest (LI) cheating on your own, rather than having events auto-trigger once NTR points hit a threshold.
- Peek-to-full POV in sex scenes: Start with a peeking perspective, then gradually open up for a more immersive view.
- A living game world with teasing elements: Include NPC sex scenes or antagonist hookups that plant the seed of doubt—like wondering if your LI is involved. Often, it's just a random NPC, but that nagging suspicion is key to NTR's thrill. If you fail too much, though, that random NPC could get replaced by one of your LIs.

If your NTR is tied behind failing skill checks, just make sure that the skill checks are both kind of hard, but fun to play. You are choosing a specific kind of NTR enjoyer with that. They want to save the girl by playing well, so make it fun and not tedious.Hello!

Personally, I think a lot of devs try to go too big and add too much in one game, it just turns into a chore to play. Having too many possible antagonists for one girl just makes it a pain to play, more so since replays dont have the impact the first run has. This also happens when they try to add multiple types of NTR in one game. Either I end up on a route I dont like or I have to specifically pick the route I like, which also ruins it in large part.
As for your question, the FMC should have a good buildup before she falls. But have a sub heroine that falls quickly just to add scenes while you build up teh FMC. It can also distract the player so they might not see when the FMC falls, and gives a good hit. The noises you hear of the sub heroin were in fact the FMC for example.
As for my personal preference, I prefer teh sub heroin to fall to the same antagonists that the FMC will fall too, it just helps build up that antagonist. But having small mini NTR events with different girls and antagonists can keep things hot while you do FMC slow build up, just dont over do it.
Good luck on the game.
You're not going to please everyone and you're unlikely to get a consensus.
For me personally, the biggest thing you can do is make it so that if you have a points system of any kind, make it actually matter, so that if (for instance) I go too negative in a relationship, the love interest doesn't give me an option to win her over or a screen comes up that says "are you sure you want NTR hur dur?", just fucking cheat on me already goddamnit.
I'm sick of games where your character is a complete dumpsterfire of a human being and yet the women give you every change in the world and even if you're at -100 reputation/love/whatever, the game still checks with you as to whether you're okay with them cheating on you.
I agree with with gameplay needs to fun, thats why i am doing something similar to Perfect Pair shall rise but its inspired by the game. So that the gameplay doesnt become fucking slog.
The game will have one major antagonist while the other two are not major but they are like stats checkers. One is more like enabler the other one just stats checks the girls.
I will have three main girls for romance option and have 7 girls for faster falling if the player wants them to fall or fails their side quest. The main three girls will have the main focus put on since putting the same work too all the girls might be a waste of time and just fuck the project up.
Since the game is made to be developed for at least 3 years and have a good size, I expect player to get a bit frusturating not seeing a lot of sex at first. Thats why we will have antagonist and NPC having sex scenes in the open world discovery, which would be a good foreshadow of what would happen.
Sorry I didnt get what you ment with your personal preference
The game wont have NTR yes or NTR no option for main girls. Their NTR points raises everytime you fail to stop babysiting event and loose in the gameplay loop.
You will have to meet weekly quotas to not fail at the game and those weekly quotas will share side quests resources with some girls.
The world will be build in a way that it can live without you, so skipping time will maen u missed babysitting events that progress NTR without you.

After having tried a lot of NTR games over the last year or so, I have come to the conclusion that
1. HTML is the worst engine
2. Real porn is the least appealing style
3. NTR phone games are usually not worth the time
Just my opinion...

Real porn just feels so lazy, and also a bit off-putting when I recognize the characters from their former, uh...acting career.For real porn i think JAV is better. But with censorship they just add sugar into coffee

Games with quick corruption arent bad per say, but they are use and forget type of deal. Quick fap and gone. They make no emotional impact on me, since they didnt take the time to set anything up. Nothing bad with that though really. Its fine for such games to exist, its like fast food.Hello!

As for your observations, I agree with all of them except for the gameplay driver ntr. People think they want that, but they dont. At least they dont want the results that come when someone tries to accomplish that. Its almost impossible to correctly tune the difficulty to make this gameplay driven ntr enjoyable. Its either too easy, so you need to play like a moron or its too hard, so there is no point. And its impossible to hit that sweet middle spot for any reasonable amount of players. If you look at popular ntr games, or all time greats, pretty much none of them have gameplay driven ntr. Mostly kinetic story is just better. Maybe if you had a team of 20 people you could make gameplay driven ntr really good, what people want, but for porn game devs, its almost an impossible challenge. I cant think of a single one that managed it, each time I just need to make a conscious effort to make ntr happen/not happen by failing easy stuff etc. Its not enjoyable, it might as well have been a "do you want to get ntred or not" A/B choice.
Personally I think that not the player, but the character doing their best and still failing makes for a great story. Ntrpg 2 had the main character train with sword every day, only to be an absolute ass at it compared to the antagonist. Similarities with henteria chronicles games. They are characters that you can root for, they try their best, but fate is just a bitch and its all for naught. This way you kinda impart part of that struggle through the story, rather than gameplay.
