Wow, that dev notes already has this looking like a jewel
Here's some feedback based on that (not played yet):
Animation: Totally agree 100%. 90% of the games I see have pretty bad (imo, but my standards might not be reasonable) animation & the worst trap I see devs & players alike fall into are putting time into making animations at the cost of actual story content & playing such games just for the animation.
Even I see games that are basically real porn delivery system html games, only in renpy with animations
Even aside from the animations themselves, integrating them into the story properly is also very rare. Transitioning from picture to picture is already a skill that is often ignored.
So, yeah, no animation is 100% better than cringe animation.
But maybe throw in a few anyway so you get the tag atleast
"Incest Patch - The fact that the MC has been raised by Parker and alongside Riley since he was a baby means they are his mother and sister in everything but blood anyway. If incest is your thing, this needs to be enough.":
Again this goes totally to my tastes. A protag of unknown origins is always great in a supernatural setting.
So tired of ppl planning the characters/settings by cookie cutter kink settings instead of based on story needs. Such a story 1st approach has my vote at the very least.
One thing tho, hope this doesn't go to the other extreme either, of landlords & childhood/best friends.
If Patreon is a nuisance, create a patch file yourself that allows you to call your adoptive parents Mom & Dad, that allows you to tell your sister that blood relations doesn't matter, what makes a family is the bonds created, not the blood you're born with.
This type of setting is the true victim of the Patreon stance. Most patches go for proper incest while Patreon doesn't allow foster/adoptive/step incest, leaving these complicated settings with no representation
Also, an official patch will probably be great at stoping other incest patches from popping up ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯
(Also stuff like sisters 3some, mother-daugther 3some, etc gets flagged as incest by Patreon apparently)
Optional content:
" both giving and receiving content are separate optional content because some people might be open to sticking their dick in an ass but not their tongue. Some people might like sticking their tongue in an ass, but not having one in theirs. You get the picture."
Hopefully this exteds to "normal sex" too. Having the option to choose sex acts based on preference would be great as well, especially since:
”The femdom is not particularly hard either – Just some light cuffing, foot worship, face-sitting, edging, degradation, and submission."
Since stuff like oral/facesitting is part of femdom, it'd be nice if it (oral) wasn't forced in other parts of the story.
Having an option to choose/refuse sex acts separately would be a great feature that most games sadly ignore
Also be great if the male equivalent (rough bj) was available on the male bdsm path, including stuff like edging, submission etc.
It's sad how kinks are still somewhat gender locked, you rarely see foot worship out of femdom
Anyway, the bdsm/femdom will probably not be a big part of the game anyway, so it doesn't matter that much i guess.
Anyway, gonna try the game now, will append with feedback if I have any after playing.
Good Luck dev
Played the game, here's my notes & feedback:
