    Version: 0.1.3

    an empty game, not for a lack of content but rather execution

    • writing is plain in that the only interactable persons on a barren map are the LIs of the game. while the story tries to explain this with the town's backstory it's not believable and more just feels like a retcon for not filling in the world
    • dialog itself is boring/bland and just feels like a means to an end to fluff an imposed relationship with the girls but it doesn't ring true for two reasons: the gameplay is too simple and systematic - so i just see through it, and there is no art to bring the characters to life
    • as you progress, it's not believable the girls are into you and what for? because you said that they have nice boobs and want to touch them
    • only allowed one interaction per day per girlin order to stretch gameplay. this could work if there was more to the gameplay but it's literally just a short chat
      • it's actually the only obstacle in the game, the fact you need to sleep after you talk with any girl you pursue - not that more obstacles necessarily make a game more natural but it doesn't do any service to realism that the game is just a skip day for lewd scene
    • the art is nice but there isn't much of it, characters don't have any variety in poses except a few tweaks in the face (mc has two poses)
    • animation doesn't look good as far as blowjobs and handjobs go (i didn't stick around to see sex scenes) - one image sliding over another
    • as such, sex scenes are horrible. the game does that unnatural thing where you get one sexual act per scene per day lol (i.e. grope boobs, get a bj or hj)
    • the girls are attractiveand each look different
      • however, they just feel very one dimensional despite the attempt to give some backstory
    • nothing noteworthy in sound except one reused music track

    overall just a dry execution in all departments, cute art but not much of it to bring life. i can understand the chats are there to build the progression but without much art and other things happening in the world, it plays like a proof of concept with polished art.

    disclaimer: it is not my aim here to be "mean", i'm just not cutting corners with my experience. ik developing is a lot of work and effort but these are my thoughts, after playing many games here by indie devs, ik better is possible.

    The quality of the art is really what stands out with this one. you can easily see that the dev is spending a lot of time on the art but that also results on having less scenes than expected.

    I can see that this game has a lot of potential. It's gonna go wild when the story and scenes will be advanced. I'll follow development.

    This game has frequent updates, nice art, passable writing and simple gameplay. Passable on this site means anything that isn't weirdly opinionated or trying very hard (and failing even harder) to be funny. That might sound like a dig but occasionally I do enjoy something simple like this. A well-made game like this is a rare sight these days.
    There's not a lot of content currently but as I said, the dev(s) update the page frequently. If you come back in a week or two they will have added a little bit more. And what's already there is pretty good!
    So all in all, I'm excited to see where this goes.

    Reviewing version 0.0.1a

    -) There is no sexual content yet.

    -) The art is lovely, although a bit heavy on the background blur.

    -) The writing is decent enough. The MC is a typical young horn dog, but making him a bit less opportunistic would make him more likable, IMHO.

    -) There are just 3 generic nice girls. The game still lacks a specific kink to lean into, but if it were to go into the MILF direction (or at least include it), then I’d be all for it!

    Overall I’ll give this short demo a solid 4 stars.

    Not much in the story right now, but it seems promising. This could be the Prince of Eden that we never got. Maybe...

    + Good art, kind of hot and charming.
    + Nice variety of characters so far.
    + The story is OK, nothing amazing but not bad either.

    - Lack of contents so far.

    Will add more ratings in the futre when it gets more contents to determine its potential..

    Not really much here yet. A very short demo. I like the art and the game play so far. It's more of a sandbox, I think but not enough to be sure yet. The premise is nothing unique. The writing is okay, a few typos and spelling errors. One issue I have is the three characters introduced so far talk like valley-girls, lots of bro-this and the like. Hopefully other characters are more diversified. I gave it 3 stars plus one to encourage the author.
