Dev needs to reduce the grind factor.. seriously I have been grinding forever for a single onsen scene with a single girl! Relationship requires fucking 85? WTF? Only get 1 point typically so after weeks of game grinding only around 41 right now of 85.

Didn't really draw me in.

Beginning is like 95% black screens with text I didn't find interesting to read.
Then after a single image of a woman there's 13 more black screens with MC talking about COVID like it's January 2020.
Afterwards you finally see the woman in a few different poses talking about... COVID and the importance of COVID tests.

At that point I felt I was watching mainstream TV instead of playing an adult game, so I quit.
The only thing I liked was the sound, but that alone isn't enough.
Tell me about it. I'm already tired of all the Covid nonsense, it's just too much. That and the fact that there is almost a complete lack of story. Just help the school during the pandemic. How? Sleep with all the students of course. Made worse by the fact that the MC is some kind of perfect being. So much so that he even teaches others and gives expert appraisals of performances, knows every note and cord of every instrument... Come on now.

Edit: Oh well, I guess it's not for me. I played through to the picnic event but I can't play anymore. Instead of actual team building exercises that the player is involved in it's just another linier event that ends with you leaving early" just because". I wouldn't be surprised if it turns out that you got Covid because its a "convenient plot device". It also feels like it's trying to play off of LIL with the line though text and forced actions. I'm not looking for a game that tells me what to do and lectures me on "current" events. This hasn't been a fun experience at all really.

so i haven't played this yet, i just found it, but....
Perfect Pitch is set in the American Midwest in late summer 2020. Just before the crescendo of covid cases later that year which would mark one of the deadliest winters on record.

You are an up-and-coming multi-instrumentalist (named Miles by default) who is presented with a rather unique opportunity: a full-ride scholarship to the internationally renowned, all-girls music conservatory named Géante Endormie.

But this scholarship is no simple charity... you have a job to do. The future of your classmates, and the future of the Conservatoire, depends on it.
so.... we, a guy, get a full scholarship to an all-girls university. okay, that's not too uncommon in porn games, i'm with you so far.

it's set in late summer? so presumably, since summer classes are almost over at that point, we'll be starting at uni in the autumn semester? okay, sounds good.

but it's in the Midwest in 2020, and the story is based around covid? so we'll get to uni and be told "sorry, the pandemic is worse than we'd expected, we're not going to have any in-person classes this semester. the dorms are going to be closed, so you should go back home; all classes will be over Zoom." that's a very unusual setup for a porn game, but it doesn't lend itself well to actually having sex.

based on other people's comments, it seems like you're taking covid very seriously and wanting to impress upon your readers how bad it was, so i'm sure you're not overlooking a detail as important as that, right? because that's kind of critical to the covid experience. if you're just going to change or ignore any details that aren't convenient, then you probably shouldn't say it's about covid. not saying that's what you did, but, y'know. if.

edit: as far as i can tell from the preview images, the renders do look nice; significantly above average for Koikatsu models in my experience.

You're aware I'm not the dev, are you?

So is covid-19 used as a plot device to introduce the effects of isolation and paranoia crippling human relationships and that impact on MC and the LIs? Or is it to add a PSA on vaccination and mask use?

It's used as a flimsy pretext to nearly every interaction. Over and over and over again. But out of your two options, the former.

So... after five updates, worth a look? Having zero reviews doesn't raise confidence.

It all depends on you. Foe me it was way too linear. If having any kind of meaningful choices is important to you then you probably won't like it. The MC is also supposed to be a student but he's basically just a member of the staff. Teaches lessons, does administrative work, plans field trips. All "just because". My guess is that a lot of people that played stopped early in the game so they didn't play long enough to even review it.

So I gave it a shot, and put up a review. It was a lot better than I expected, at least after the picnic event. Basically a very romance-heavy non-horror Lessons in Love-style AVN. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the romance dialogue in later updates, including the event sequence with Lily. I concluded the use of COVID as a narrative device is completely useless, unless it's Chekhov's Gun and someone at the school gets COVID...

Bug with the Alexis Sleep Over gallery picture. Easy fix the file is titled 'images/Buttons/config/temp/galalexisleepoverH.webp' and the game is calling for 'images/Buttons/config/temp/galalexisleepoverh.webp' and it's case sensitive... Just rename the file with no caps and the bug is fixed.

I dropped this game.. it has no damn story.. it's nothing but a dating sim game with a no damn tracker so it's just random events that take forever to find.

Story: 1/5
Game Play: 1/5 (boring just do random stuff to you get an event)
Sound: 3/5 (music is good but that is all)

In fact the main HUD does not even tell you what day of the week it is for being in school. It's a really lousy UI and repetitive events are really boring.

Hard disagree, wasn't hard to get the story triggers and all the characters are actually interesting in this one compared to multiple other renpy games on here like this where I was only interested in like 1-4 people of a cast of 20+.

The UI and stuff if the dev even sees it as not great can be ironed out later as it's not a finished game. The dev also isn't accepting any money for the game and is making it as a side project. I have no clue where your needless aggression is coming from. People can have different opinions on games so you not enjoying it is fine but that doesn't mean come into the forum undeservedly bashing and insulting the game and the dev for no reason. You can give non-abusive feedback if you think a system or menu should be changed or improved but angrily spouting insults is just not okay.
