Unity - Peach Hills Division [v042.3] [Peach Hills]

Not bad little game, but as of current update, still only animations with the chubby girl (can't fuck other girls and rest of scenes are just part of missions and are static renders). Navigation around map can sometimes feel bit tedious since but is managable, standard point and click game, not very hard, animations are done ok, graphics are really nice, pleasant art style too, consistent, cute models, could be great but again, as of current update, there just isn't a whole lot of NSFW content with anyone else but that one girl and it takes quite long to actually unlock it all, I'd say about 3-4 hours of playing to unlock it all if you already know where to go for it all.

Also game has some bugs, it can softlock you in a place without being able to move around the room, saving and loading will revert some of the recent progress, alternatively one can try to progress the time or teleport straight to your room to sleep (unless you get stuck in your room, can't move, can't access the map, then your shit out of luck, save and load and redo recent mission all over), no other bugs aside from that, no crashes.

Dialogues progress slow, can't be skipped unless you repeat the same mission (due to a softlock bug), faster to click through, but still slow, if not for slow dialogues, one could probably finish the whole game in 1 hour.

Not sure about the story, it has it all right, but given that I skipped most dialogue without reading it, not sure why there is magic, presence of some kind of army/guards, what the weird white and red paper? figure you keep and falls into water in one mission is about, why there is a fairy that eventually sleeps in your drawer (dev better give her extreme penetration/bulge scenes), why MC has weird dream once, what's the other lady that appears in one mission in forest and another appearing in one mission where you hang the flayers/banners in upper part of the village.

As Vitriks wrote, def blue balls state (was gonna literally name my review that same but he beat me to it lol).

[v034.25] Game in "blue balls" state.

Is it good? - yes. Does it have enough lewd content? - no. I didn't had any critical bugs or issues with the game. I would say the story could be better explained. The only problem is that after three years of development there not much to see.

Great art style, good animation but everything will end pretty quick.

Wait couple years before it will get enough content.

Great visuals wasted with incompetend programming and game devolopment skills.
Pros
-One of the most unique and beutiful graphics I've seen in an adult game.
Cons
-Literally everything else.
-You can softlock yourself pretty easly
-Dialogues are meh and you cant skip the uninteresting parts.
-Quest logs are not clear. You can stuck clicking arounds since it doesnt tell you what to do clearly.
-Too many bugs.

At this point just make comic book or simple visual novel witout a sandbox world. Sadly this project is beyond the capability of its creators. I hope they can find some talented coders and game designers. Those visuals shouldn't go waste

Version v021.06
Pro-
1. Game looks amazing with the art style
2. dialog is so far well written and not over done
3. interface is fairly easy to use and maneuver

Con-
1. the game is very unpolished for the age of the game
2. a number of bugs that can soft lock.
3. Limited content currently

Summary: The game has limited content but the content looks great for few part it has. You can see the heart that went into the game the main factor is how limited it is resulting in a unpleasant after taste as you see how long it took to get what content it currently has. I give it 4/5 as i have hopes it will get better

just bought the game on steam, im hoping to heck the production picks up now that it is on there. game would be a 5/5 based on the amazing/unique 3d art style it has, but as it is right now it definitely has some problems.

its so rare to have a non japanese 3d adult game with a unique art style/assets. absolutely love all the characters and designs that they have so far (including the men, i hope they have sexier men later on mwehehe). theres some really nice 3d animation, but i also really appreciate the still renders that they use, they manage to make the stills look a lot more than just a screenshot with things like the thick white outlines. the map design too is also incredibly decorated and gorgeous at times.

anyways though, as it is right now this game is quite buggy and kinda annoying to navigate compared to other visual novel type games, both in traversal and mission design. i got softlocked once cause my load got rid of ui elements at the beginning. other than though i dont really mind the other bugs ive encountered, but it doesnt give me peace of mind that the whole experience will be smooth. i think the game is very nonintuitive with its directions sometimes, like gimme some yellow paint or something, its hard to know what is important to inspect (like the cat paw prints for example). if the devs could pump a lot of QoL into this game, such as making the highlight button do more than just highlight the annoying to click traversal zones. they also need to make it easier to locate new quests, like by having an "available" tab for quest you havent seen.

i have a bit of intrigue with the writing. its kinda hard to grasp some aspects of the world building, but i think its cause its too early to demonstrate the militaristic/magic stuff. i quite enjoy the non main heroine related missions too, mostly cause the art style makes the npc lewds look nice, im hoping they pump more of those into the game to make it more busy.

i would not mind it at all if this game ends up being one of the most gorgeous 3d point and click adult visual novels with almost 0 gameplay elements, the only things i really want going forward is a reasonable update cycle and major QoL changes.

Completely unremarkable and a scam. Don't be fooled by the good CG.

Despite being in development for well over 3 years. Peach Hill Divisions is at best a barebones a bad CG collector game.

The buildups to the game are fine and there is a story. However its barely stitched together. At no point during my playthrough did I consider it palatable.

Not only is this game FULL of bugs. Everything from dialogue options to the CG player are broken. Every action can softlock you out from the game. Horrible even after the long development time. I follow creators that have released way over 50 different sex scenes in their games during this time period.

Its not all bad however. The CG, even if high quality, may have flaws. A massive lack of giving the characters decent personalities. They all feel like cardboard cutouts to me. But I do consider it serviceable.

This is a 2 star game through and through. The sluggish and amateurish approach to making a game like this can't and shouldn't be tolerated, lowering the game to a 1 star. Avoid at all costs,

This is great, its been a while since i played a game with this quality of art. Hopefully BaasB can upload the newest update that aparently released a few days ago!

The game has amazing art, nice characters and a few scenes at the time im writing this. It does have a few bugs and the town layout and/or navigation through the map is kind of weird and you can get a bit lost, there is no menu where you can check your current objective and you cant backtrack the dialogue. This is a bit frustrating.

Apart from that im really excited to see where this game goes. Ive looked at the developer's discord an they have a small development outline for the game that leaves a lot of space for interesting things to happen in the future. Im in love with this cartoony style and absurd premise and cant wait for more!

I want to like this game so badly because the art style and character design are SO GOOD, but holy fuck is this genuinely unplayable. I don't think I need to get into it since that's been the main topic of discussion here, but this really needs a half-decent programmer before I can recommend it. I have faith in this game's future — just unfortunately not in its present.

The save system doesn't work. Bugs galoreand art is nice but looks like power point slideshows. can't recommend until the save system is fixed because you have to strat from the beginning with each update.

The game is an undercooked, broken, and bugged mess. Visuals are catchy, but that's all I can say nice about the game. Got softlocked in the beginning. English is bad, and writing is really bad too and obviously uninspiring. Half of the UI is written in other language. The game lags when loading assets, and UI and interaction glitches are everywhere.

The first sex scene is out of nowhere and between two faceless random soldiers; it's pointless and not arousing at all. And all that I got in the first 10 minutes of gameplay, for a game being in development for more than 2 years, it's a total failure and catastrophe.

What not to love with this game, insane graphics, good characters and story, might be missing animations, the possibility of making dialogues go faster and an easier pathing method to navigate the map because you can easily miss some areas but damn, I've played a lot of 18+ games and this one really stands out.

+ Great CG scenes, animations are top notch.

- Calling this game's code "spaghetti" would be an insult to spaghetti.
Nothing works as intended, there are a million softlock bugs, and after multiple updates nothing has been fixed.
By far this is the least functional game I've played on this website.
- Worse still, the save files are non exportable, so good luck trying to find a non-glitched save on forums.
If you're a dev and you're making a game, you should always allow your Beta testers (aka customers) to debug, load, export and fuck around with your game. Because lord knows it's nothing is going to work as intended.

There's no fun to be had in this game. It is just a linear visual novel in unity with no way to skip through text faster. Everything feels like a chore, even just getting back home to bed. Bed buttons seems to do nothing as well as the time pass button.

Only good thing about this is art, very pretty but i would very much prefer a slideshow to this

v0.19 EA

+gorgeous 3d artstyle with cute girls.

-Bugs

-Dev couldn't be bothered to check a box in unity to limit framerate. So it will 100% your GPU no matter how light the game actually is. This is a typical case of a dev insisting on using unity and making a vastly worse game for it. This game format is pretty much ideal for renpy. Yes he could have even included the animations thanks to Live2D.

-The backgrounds are literally videos, looping to create the illusion of motion. While the characters are animated on the spot, at wildly differing quality settings. just... why? either render everything or record everything. Especially since you have zero control over the characters, they are following a fully pre-set path. Not to mention that by having the characters stand in front of the background they do not really FIT into the world. it has a strong greenscreen effect.

-The backgrounds are animated, the characters are animated, the gui is animated. Do you want to know what the only non animated thing in the game is? The sex scenes. those are a series of still shots... just... why?

-Poor QoL. Even something as basic as making text appear instantly is not available. also spacebar hides the text instead of progressing it. instead you will left click a lot to progress. This will make you develop carpal tunnel. for me it just hurts because I already have carpal tunnel.

-Padded dialog. the characters repeat their dialog to an excessively ridiculous degree.

-Point and click game, and the click part is a bit janky. I had a lot of cases where it didn't quite work so i had to go back and forth before it took.

-Literally the first bit of gameplay I had was the MC getting lost in the woods which made me (the player) also get lost in the woods... this was the opposite of fun.

-False advertising. This game description appears as a harem game. But so far the only sex scenes (as far as I know) are forced voyeur scenes where you peep at real men fucking.

-Eye inconsistency. Seeing MC side by side with another character, one has anime eyes the other has realistic eyes. It looks jarring to see the two eye styles in the same image.

-MC is a wimpy shrimpy loser. It is frankly farcical when you see him side by side with one of the other male characters. Also his body language alternates between timid or feminine. MC is a grown ass man who just joined the military and is starting his first year in military academy......
oh wait, the game is lying about this being a "military academy". It is actually a "military academy prep school", where parents send teens as young as 12 to LARP as soldiers while still studying normal K12 education...
the game is lying to you to pretend the MC is a legal adult.
So yea... either MC is comically a shrimp, or he is a very young boy.

awesome art style, and a cute story ,. but it clear that the creator knows how to navigate his own game. and forgot to add ANY CLUE for his audience on how to navigate his game.

it honestly "plays" like shit,I HAVE NO IDEA WERE I AM GOING. i click and click, it makes me so mad so play these "open" games. i DONT KNOW THIS TOWN I AM IN.
it even loops part of the story with the ellie character, that takes 5 min to get though.. so annoying to play.

The most obvious thing is the graphics are really wonderful. Incredibly attractive.

But playing the game pisses me off. It's a point-and-click, as advertised, and boy you're gonna be clicking. The game is in love with its dialouge, but most of it's mid at best, and it just flows like a dried out river.

You meet the girl in the banner right away, she's lost something and is upset. This is what's called a plot beat. She says "oh I've lost the thing, sniffle, if they see me like this, I'll get in trouble. That damn cat stole it! Sniffle! I'm just having the worst day, oh me oh my. I can't believe this has happened, it stole it from me. I am just having the worst time" and it goes on and on and on, repeating it ad nasuem. The plot beat was established 30 seconds ago, I get it, can we move on? I'm not in awe of your incredible dialouge capabilities here, they're not that great. The characters ramble on and on. Character driven stories don't mean characters that won't stop repeating lines.

This is a major problem because that's the game. You navigate nice looking scenery and listen to characters blather repetitively. It doesn't help that the dev decided to add input delay so you can't click through dialouge quickly. This is painful for a in-development game you have to play over and over. There's a skip button but it doesn't do anything. I couldn't find a keybinding for skipping dialouge in the settings either.

I want this game to be interesting, but good god, it pisses me off. Being good at writing means being efficient with your characterization.

It looks like once done it could be a fantastic and unique experience, but as is, it fails at directing the player, its a buggy mess, and the lack of animated sex scenes in a game where everything else is animated is a bit disappointing

Art of the game for me in really appealing and attractive since it's so different from what we usually get. But unfortunately the game is currently a buggy mess. I tried three separate playthroughs and got stuck at three separate places where events apparently bugged out which leaves you unable to proceed. It's hard to tell when you might be stuck because the game lacks any kind of quest log to tell you what event is supposed to be next.

Wow Amazing! Peach Hills Academy is really amazing. This is an excelent game, I hope development goes smoothly because this could be one of the best. Good luck to the developer and artists. Thank you!

Honestly speaking, this should probably be a 2 star, and definitely could be in the future, but I'm giving an extra star for the potential of the game.

Pros:
+++Gorgeous to look at. The character models, the backgrounds, the scenery, the lighting, the map screen, all of it is just beautiful.
+Good art style. The character models strike nearly the perfect balance between cartoonish and realistic, easily avoiding the uncanny valley, but having enough style to rival many 2d games.
+Decent cast. The girls you meet (all 4 of them) seem interesting and look good. While one of the girls does get naked pretty early and often, the rest make me excited to take things further with them.
+No real game-breaking bugs found.

Cons:
-Not much here yet. You get a few scenes with one of the girls topless, then naked, then a handjob from her, and a random titjob from a pizza delivery girl (with 0 buildup). On top of that, there is no real animation in the few adult scenes? Seems like that would be a must in a 3d game.
-The dialogue is lacking. Part of this is definitely a case of English not being the first language of the writer, but also there is a lot of fluff dialogue that just doesn't need to be in there. Characters take about 4-5 speech bubbles to say what would barely need just 1. To add to this, the speech bubbles take around half a second just to transition to the next one. Even using the skip mode (which you have to keep holding click on for it to work), conversations feel long and drawn out.
-No guidance. This game desperately needs some way to track quests and girls. I couldn't be sure if I had reached the end of the current content until I looked here and saw other people getting stuck in the same place I was. Dev, if you're reading this, this needs to be your number one priority along with more content.
-Some stuff just doesn't work. The gallery feature is either currently broken or just not working at all. The autosave function doesn't work. The back to bedroom button only works at night for some reason?
-Navigation can be painful. The game does this thing where hovering over parts of the screen in locations (or holding down ctrl, which is never explained), the cursor changes and that part of the screen lights up. The issue is that many times, these areas and the directions they bring you in don't really make sense, or seem to match the physical location that you would be moving.

With all that being said, these issues would definitely put this game in the 1-2 star range if not for the fact that A: the game is just so god damn gorgeous, and B: it's still very early in the games life cycle.
Very much hoping for improvement in the future from this one, and also hoping for:
1: More content
2: A quest/girl tracker
3: Animations
