The reason porn games fail in terms of gameplay is because porn games reward you with sex scenes when you fail at the gameplay (ie are captured, are dropped to 0 hp, run into a trap). If the game rewarded you with sex scenes when you succeeded, people would play the game normally.

That is why its best to have a gallery type setup and unlock scenes for it as you play the game normally. Otherwise people will intentionally fail, to get the sex scenes.

A good way to handle this is to make the "sex scenes" ingame, be fade to black sequences, but if you go to the gallery, you get to see what actually happens. That way people play the game, as a game, rather than as a masturbation aid.

Well if the porn is separate, then it is no longer a pornographic focused game, and therefore the review would be moot, as it is reviewing the game on the basis that the pornographic content is the main focus of the game, with the survival / gameplay aspects "tacked on". Which is why I reviewed it poorly. But if the pornographic content isn't present, then the survival / gameplay aspects become the focus. Then it would receive a current mediocre review instead (as bad controls, lack of direction and a nauseating viewport makes any gameplay or atmosphere unenjoyable)

The things that need the most work done are the camera viewport (the viewport wobbles, like she is drunk) and the overall controls (which feel very awkward, especially, when you try to turn around). Once those have been addressed, having some measure of sense of direction (ie in Dead Space, if you held a key it would "point" you to your next destination) is very important. For example, in a situation of no power, the game could direct you to where the power generator is.

Finally, if there is to be gun and aiming, make sure you aim in First Person. Too many third person shooters have tried and failed with third-person aiming.

"No more 'Dead Space and ALIEN' vibe"
So is it all outside now? no more spooky interior? and is the gameplay & movements still the same?
I really like this game to be immersive, I like the idea that its not focus on porn.

"(80% for non adult audience because I've added tons of details to the game but most people (Adult audience) don't seem to notice it and only go straight to the porn)"
The level of detail is all I was looking for, in fact I keep changing the graphic settings the ingame menu is crispt AF, I kept looking at the interior walls and also struggle to where the gun is and found out it was on the inventory LOL and played the game slow, the only thing that prevented me from playing it slowly is that the Alien is too horny and doesn't break the line of site, its like it smells you XD and for me removing the Sharpening made the game look good on my perspective.

Don't be disappointed if people don't appreciate the level of details :) all game animators/developers has those expectations but in reality, a lot of gamers will just look at how the gameplay and story is doing.

-The gameplay is still the same, same characters, same setting.

Still the same but improved
-2 times better animations, aiming, camera controlling and movement.
-No more fades black when you are failed to break free. (Except loading screen)

New concept and stuff that will be in the game.
-Less scary (still scary for some locations) more climbing, discovering, puzzle, stealth and action.
-70% will be "Abandoned Island" 20% "Abandoned oil rig station" 10% "Under the ocean" (The old concept was "100%" on the abandoned ship)
-Will add "Signal Tower" (The tower will work like Far Cry series, you can't check the map until you've activated the signal tower)
-Will add Human AI (Both ally and enemy)
-Will add "Bonfire mechanics" for sure.
-More COSMIC horror and HP lovecraft/Giger type for the monsters.
-I've got some inspiration from a movie named "Annihilation" too, not gonna lie.
-No objective as long as you play "Survival mode" because it's basically "Free-roam mode"

Still Planning (Still not confirmed to add)
-Relationship mechanics
-Driving
-Quest mechanics
-Level, Status, Exp, Etc.
-Game over/ Ending scene (If the main char got raped too many times)

Glad to know the game is sill ongoing, porn scenes or not, the visuals look very promising !
(couldn't try it, would crash before starting, did the download link get updated recently ?)
I mean, I'll still download the porn mod too, but hey if it's fun as a game without it that's a darn good thing too.

I have been working hard in AAA companies both full-time and remote (modeling, animation, rigging, concept art and storyboard) for 7 years (Until I have decided to make my own game) I know what I should do and not to do. All I need is fanbase, supporters, chance and time.

Some review can also heavily impact to me too (Some or maybe most players will only read the review and let alone how the actual game is, and you are now recommended to people not to try my game even it's free (which is very unfair for all of my efforts and I've been working 18 hours everyday since begin of this project) and it's only 2.5% of all progress)

I don't even need any review for this project since it's still very WIP.

Feedback is good but budget is more important. I think I cannot fix all stuff with the budget like $100-$200 a month because I'm not a machine that can finish thousands of functions and works in a month with very limited budget.

I'm so tired of working 18 hours everyday and try not to die because of pay rent is brutal (You know how hard it is, right?)
Why I'm still working this game? because some people loved it and I'm so happy to deliver my work to them. I don't feel any fair for what I'm doing, for all of my efforts, I've added tons of details to the game, No DAZ characters, My own sound/character design. Some (Mostly) props too and I can't believe this game is worse than the games that uses the stolen assets from other (Seriously WTF)
I admit that I might be a bad programmer because I'm an artist.

I've decided to limit the contents in free build to 40% after this (I understand that no one wants to pay for this unfinished work but no game ever finished without budget and I need budget too, not only feedback) I think I deserve better than $200 a month. I've released this game here for free because of I need help from people and I want to finish this game. I don't want to see this game gets abandoned like other. I will cut all adult scenes too but I will release adult stuff as a mod instead, just for patrons.

The origin story of this project is not even an adult games at all (even now, it's still not an adult game, but adult is just a feature for patrons)
This thread was not supposed to be created at the first place too. but still got posted and this is why I had to add adult feature to the game)
I've never planned to start my own career with Patreon too.

Pre-playable teaser, not PT, please read properly. and deadline was the reason why I had to release it very early.

Real talk tho I loved the demo I think it was great, I like the design and could tell a bunch of work went into it. I actually like the controls cause it feels like horror game controls which while I know its not the 100% focus it does play a part in this games future and honestly felt fine to me. The porn scenes I think were really good even with the few that are here and would love to see more of that added. There is a reason I am watching this game and excited to see more of it in the future.

Hi MateyDev, you're creating a really great game, something like this (specifically, high fidelity 3D survival horror) sex game is a dream come true! Loving the theme, controls and everything else! Hope you keep up the great work mate :)

Damn,
I actually thought the game was great how it was, and had some real potential, still looking forward to seeing whats to come, yet i think huge let down for non adult content. i understand appealing to the WHOLE market, i mean,why limit yourself. make the game you want, i still think after playing what you had, had huge potential for both genres. Adult especially. Keep up the great work.

I really enjoy the game and how it's a different style of art than what I usually try out for Unreal Engine games. I can't wait for the next update!

They're not going to stop making adult content. It will be like sexlab for Skyrim, a mod, except made by the actual dev of the game.

This game will be renamed to "UNFOUNDED: File 101"

This game won't be a porn game. Adult scene will not be in the final game and you will have to download "adult scene" as a mod (That made by me) I'm going for both non adult audience and adult audience (80% for non adult audience because I've added tons of details to the game but most people (Adult audience) don't seem to notice it and only go straight to the porn)
[...]

Note

This game might be the worst pornographic game ever because this game is never meant to be a porn game at the first place. :) I need a little time to recreate "all" stuff again. (everything will be fine within 15th November)

-"Survival mode" will have no objective, you can read what description says in the menu title.
- Do not play this game for "porn" since I'm making this game for non adult audience than adult audience. (but still both btw)
- In the future, Free build will limit the feature/content to 50% of the full content.
I really don't get it. You're like "this game will not have porn but hey, it will have porn!" and "it should never have had porn, but somehow it did".
I don't see any problem with having loads of details in a porn game, and lots of others here think the same. It's actually what renders porn games great, the love put into details.
Also, I don't really see why you implement porn in the very first demo of a game which isn't actually supposed to contain porn by default. Just gets the hopes up for a great 3d porn game which will apparently not be fulfilled (or only partly, whatever weird thing you plan).

I gotta agree here, I was looking forward to this one and even became a Patreon but if the porn ends up a complete afterthought than I'm not gonna be sticking around for it. I don't get the idea he's got that a pornographic game can't also be detailed or stand out as a good game in general.

I personally don't care about the dev trying to make a porn game or a game with a porn option, I'll stay as long as the porn is good, and so far it looks like it will be.

This game IS still an adult game but you have to unlock the adult stuff with mod. Avoid the trouble about Steam rules as much as possible (Especially Rape or similar, yes this is real) Also bigger audience is a good thing for the future. Seriously, no need to worry about this game is going to be full non adult game. Yes, it's non adult game if you didn't install the mod but things will be different after you've installed the mod ;)

Why both audience?



I was a little disappointed at the time when there was only a few people had mentioned what I've added to the game and some people just only yelled at me like they've bought this game for $3000. that's why I was ALMOST change the audience.

Note

Need more time for the new build due to bugs and tons of stuffs that need to be recreated. It's more SINISistar than ALIEN QUEST EVE this time.

This is pretty reassuring although I will still be cautiously optimistic. What you had has made me a big fan so far and I was pretty bummed to hear that you had seemingly wanted to change from that. You could have made the perfect game and there would still be that random loser who would come crawling out of the dirt to shit talk it. So you can't put too much stock in those who have no investment in your success. Not saying you shouldn't listen to criticism but some of your detractors were complete idiots. I wanted to reiterate that I really do love what you've brought so far, the controls,character models,atmosphere,animations, all of it. So good luck man and ALWAYS remember not to feed the trolls.
