Unreal Engine - Project O [v0.4.6] [Insektum]

Very high quality, but currently lacks content. I also question the devs ability to make anything decent to play and not just pretty looking. Following are the reasons why.

The game starts you on an island and gives a basic tutorial through character dialogue and then gives you control. Then you start walking and it gives you two extra pieces of information

1 ) "getting semen might be a bit hard, I might have to get my hands dirty (press E to interact)"
2 ) "I'm starting to get horny (press M to masturbate)"

I'm paraphrasing but it basically boils down to the tutorial telling you to interact with the insects by pressing E and pressing M to masturbate, in this order.

If at this point you go looking for an insect to interact with, maybe because it's the first thing the game told you, maybe because you don't want generic masturbation scene number 10329. You will softlock yourself.
Because once a scene ends, the only way to leave the scene and regain control is by pressing the most stupidest key ever set as de default for this ( END ). How should you know that the dev set this stupid ass key to not get softlocked? By doing the second thing it told you and pressing M, of course! Because at the end of the masturbation scene, and only at the end of the masturbation scene, does the game ever tell you how to leave a scene.

After restarting the game a couple times trying to figure this one out (or reading this thread), you finally have enough knowledge to go around looking for some stuff to do. And proceed to realize you're on a huge barren island with only two other species around and one scene that repeats itself over and over with each.
Then you see you can craft potions, go looking for ingredients, craft the potion and when you go to drink it, you instead throw the potion. Why? Because the potion you crafted is supposed to be thrown on the insects to make them horny. Very fast moving insects which you're trying to hit with a potion that has a delay for throwing and not crosshair or indicator of where it'll fall.

Yeah. Pretty, but barren, game filled with terribly implemented systems. I don't know how log this has been in development so I can't say if dev is competent but rushing things out the door or incompetent and actually thinks the systems he has implemented are at all complete.

Animations are good though. When this eventually gets more content I'll probably either enjoy playing if they've improved things or enjoy the 100% save some kind soul will share.

I am truly impressed with this game. You can tell there's a lot of love and effort put into it. The world is beautiful even though it is small. The main girl is cute as hell. Surprising there's no caves and and there's no bugs raping you which is sad. You can't even see yourself giving birth. But I can't wait to see how far and how much this game will grow.

I adore Insektum's video content, so to see them working on a game is awesome. After playing, I think the bones are super solid, I love the conditional sex animations (non-aroused, aroused, and pregnant) as well as the models and animation work. I can only hope development continues, and as such have decided to support Insektum on patreon

So, I think this is still in fairly early development. As such I will give a rating suited for game that still needs to find it bearings. I will give it 3 starts, which more than anything else rests on an expectation of this game getting much better.

Let's start with the good; this game is absolutely beautiful. It's a fairly large map too. For whatever reason the graphics weirdly gives me vibes of Elder Scrolls Oblivion with the setting sun and night sky. Yes, the game has a day/night cycle, which is pretty cool. Though, really, it would've been a lot more cool if it was used for something.

Yet the large and beautiful map is also very empty. Nothing really moves or lives in this world. Instead you run around, desperate to find something, anything to interact with. Then once you find some of those insects you quickly realize that it is fairly boring. You run up to one and interact with it. That's it.

You can, supposedly, craft potions. I did craft some, but I never figured out how to use them.

I think this game would work a lot better if the protagonist had some sort of goal such as having to escape or survive the Island while hunting and being hunted. This would also allow that crouch feature to be used for hiding and whatnot. It would also give you more purpose than running randomly around for new particular purpose.

In short:
The Good

• Beautiful map
• Day and night cycle

The In-between

• Different bugs? I only found 2 versions and I went all over the map.

The Bad

• The map is devoid of life, which is only underscored by its vastness.
• The potion system didn't work
• Not really any other point but to find and interact with bugs

The game has potential. Now it has a map, time to add on stuff to do.

I love games with these tags (insects and pregnancy), good luck with the development, I hope everything works out for you <3
at the moment there is a lack of a map and minimap as well as small quests

Honestly not a bad little tech demo

its got a nice lil art style, and for a UE game it runs suprisingly well compared to others on the site

animations are limited but pretty solid, the rest of the devs art certainly inspires confidence in the ultimate product. the clipping/placement issues are definitely noticable though which is a shame

The map is massive, but the bugs are sparse, and i spent alot longer than i'd like to admit trying to find the other kind. im sure it wont be a problem down the line but as of now it is

definitely one im gonna keep an eye on

not even in to insectai (everyone's got their kinks, no shame in it) but the game is very smooth and pleasant to watch/play. i like that there is night & day, swimming & crafting, a hee-uge map, and an almost 3rd person shooter aspect except your throwing bottles instead.

extremely promising, glad i checked it out.

im giving this tech demo 5 stars cause it's got great potential. there isn't really any deeply baked issues in the foundation that can't be solved in the future.

this looks like some good sug bex and i am totally on board for any project that has a complete focus on that. while theres only 2 insects right now, the current animations seem simple but enjoyable (albeit off position as of right now, unless the flying bug is supposed to give you a nose job ), but it's clear there will be more variety in the future.

thankfully the character/insect assets of this game seem to be unique/commissioned or whatever, i really dig the art style the 3d modeler has. the map is also quite nice, there's some pretty scenery, but there is room for more biome diversity and points of interest.

besides additional variety in insects, clothing, and places, here is hoping for features like a map/quick travel, bestiary/scene viewer, and potentially narrative elements in both scenes and some overarching plot.

I have no idea how someone can give this tech demo 5 stars.

1. There is no character creator nor simple customizations, like hair style color or eye color possible.

2. The animations are only 3 per creature of which there are only 2.

3. The animations are terrible clipping through the body & almost never line up with the target! Destroying the immersion.

4. Animation depend on your & the creatures state, if ur pregnant there is no penetration possible. Meaning you can NOT choose in what position you wanna "engage"

5. Lewd sounds are always the exactly the same in a 3 second loop no variation at all.

6. No lewd fluids whatsoever & there is no birth scene the screen just turns black & a ADULT insect is spawned, There is no larva stage!

7. "Pregnancy" last at max 60 seconds & no matter what you do or if ur currently in a scene the screen turns black & the Adult insects spawns this is awful. Way to fast & just unsatisfying.

Lastly there is never a build up in sexual tension possible & the sleep invoking tune in the background compliments this issue, there are no goals
set & worst of all not even STATS to see what filth you committed yourself to.
Potential is not worth 5 stars Ubisoft has potential as well & look what mess they are delivering.
2 Stars cuz it runs well serves the man of culture tag is more than generous.
(in reality its a 1 Star tech demonstrator)

If you want a much better experience go for the VN "Creature Get" even to it was abandoned...

At the moment, the game only has two insects with three animations each one. (As far as I know) But the game has great potential to grow and become a great game. Definitely a game to keep an eye on if you haven't played it already. The game is missing character customization at the moment but seems to be planned as there is a clothing craft option in the alchemy tab. I do also hope they add body sliders, as I would like to customize my character. 4.5/5
