[v0.13.1]
In the sea of AI slop, there are a few devs that actually have the skills and desire to use the tech as a tool to get the results they want.
What I'm saying is that this dev is one of the few that has some standards in visual presentation when using AI art. This game has the rare quality of consistency in art while using AI.
The outfits, the style, the multitudes of variations in the sprites and CG variations during scenes/animations, they all have a consistent quality and never feel jarring. There is only the barest hint of minor inconsistencies like belt buckle being slightly different shape, but over all, the visual part of the VN flows extremely smoothly. The animations are also exceptional and fit right in.
This is one of the few examples of someone using AI art as a suitable substitute for hand drawn art in VN format. Not necessarily in terms of art quality, although this style is really good, but in terms of the control an "artist" has in presenting coherent visuals for the scenes. Most AI art games will have nice individual CGs, but rarely have a coherent and consistent flow to it.
Unfortunately, the AI writing leaves a lot to be desired. Maybe it's not apparent to everyone, but as someone who has massive hours gooning to LLMs, all the flaws of LLM smut are amplified here. The overly dramatic prose, the em dash spam, the cringe, some logic holes, and the repetitiveness of the writing.
To be fair, I think the dev also tried to use LLM to its advantage in their workflow, but they just didn't quite succeed as they did on the visual side. The AI writing is still better than some of the godawful implementations I've seen of it, but it's certainly not great. Particularly, the dev failed to reign in the LLM tendency to repeat motifs incessantly when it permeates the context window. Whether it be certain ideas or a specific pattern in writing, poorly guided LLMs can get stuck in a loop because it's getting influenced too strongly by a repeating motif in the context window.
All in all, this is a very basic NTR story with LLM writing that can get old very fast, but the AI art was done much better than what you normally find around here.
I rated it higher at first, but the more I play it, the more weaknesses I find in the writing. The stupid way the LLM was doing the internal monologues was incredibly annoying.
Oh god—Alan—watching—best ever—Alan never—bad girlfriend—feels good.
That's the kinda shit you need to stamp out of the context window, not let the LLM repeat it until it becomes the standard.
