This is a test build for something that is going to be added to the main game.A new thread should have probably been made for this new update, it's a completely different game at this point
It would be good if you can use the save from the pre build with this one when it's done.This is a test build for something that is going to be added to the main game.
Basically, it's a mechanic being tested and refined, but instead of having people go through the whole game just to test it, you can test it directly.
Btw, from observing their patreon, the combat mechanics in this, will be the combat of the normal game as well.
I agree, but could be hard to do. probably better to have a continue from.It would be good if you can use the save from the pre build with this one when it's done.
I think he lost the main game or it's a different person without access to the main game. It's been years without a single release, to release something so small that has nothing to do with the "main" game.This is a test build for something that is going to be added to the main game.

No, they still have the main game.I think he lost the main game or it's a different person without access to the main game. It's been years without a single release, to release something so small that has nothing to do with the "main" game.
Nah I was actually pointing out why I see it as being so bad and that I want to see H games get to the quality level of VT2, I also compared it to other H games on this site if you bothered to read it before commenting, I don't give a fuck about previous shitty builds, I'm talking about what is currently in the upload linkI mean, if you spent 5 minutes and went back a few pages in the forum, you would've realized that what's been uploaded to the OP is a standalone test-build for a game that hasn't been updated in about 4ish years and that all the review are for that old build. Instead, for some reason, you've opted to post a odd rant comparing the game mechanics of a non-H game made by a AAA studio to that of an H-game created by a single guy.
Like, honestly, what the fuck?
"Definitely Not Dev" comment for sure.No, they still have the main game.
And I think there have been releases, just not ones we got access to.
If you look at the patreon, you'll see the island (I think it's got some visual updates) with the combat mechanics used in this beta test.
Basically new things in the game we have yet to play: surfing mech, the new combat system & elements (outside of the realm), free climbing, prettier graphics, swimming system, underwater combat, x-ray scenes, grappling hook (I'm looking forward to this one), new island building, enemy emotion.

I highly reccomend checking out the kemono, you really see how much work has been done, still annoying there's no build, I won't lie, but it isn't a case of no work being done. Just that there's a lot of work being done, but nothing released. (possibly because of backlash when they released unpolished builds previously? dunno the exact reason, since there looks to be enough for something playable).
I wouldn't really pay attention to how it's been 4 years (originally wrote 1-2, but damn been a while), because it's an actual game, one where the dev is trying to be really ambitious, which fucks the dev timelines in the ass.
If it was just the island, and only the island, then there'd be pleanty of updates, but you got the zone thing, the dream world, and then the battle mode in the dream world, two of them, and now you're just adding a lot of dev work, but work that doesn't really show much of anything.
Unlike a VN game where most of the work is what players see, games have a lot of coding and background shit you gotta mess with.
Basically, Dev has been developing the game the whole time, just no releases. they just seem to be terrible with estimates (they were trying to release a playable island build november last year)
Game is looking really good, just that we can't play it.
p.s. honestly this build and the whole forbidden space thing, can be it's own game, adds to my point of the dev doing a lot of different things.
So, you hate the game because you think is shit? So... what are you doing here? Why you enter in this thread and talk nonsense? Isn't better if you stay away of this "shit" game cause you don't want to play it and you just throw poop words?Nah I was actually pointing out why I see it as being so bad and that I want to see H games get to the quality level of VT2, I also compared it to other H games on this site if you bothered to read it before commenting, I don't give a fuck about previous shitty builds, I'm talking about what is currently in the upload link
It makes no difference if it's 1 guy or 100 guys making a game when I decide what game I will waste my spare time on, it's about how much I enjoy the game, the number of devs plays no real part in that other than if it's trash like this game because of it being 1
I played the old build from 4 years ago, it was trash too
Like, honestly, what the fuck?
..... Cause a dev would totally post a link to a site that has pirated their patreon...."Definitely Not Dev" comment for sure.
Why?? a lot of the devs do and some use this forum as testers as well......proooot...
There's a different between this forum and kemono that literally rips ALL the paywalled content.Why?? a lot of the devs do and some use this forum as testers as well...
Some people don't forget where they come from.
I'm not saying this is the case..
sure is that spit on something here doesn't make any sense...
Isn't he going to finish the family story ark? like from memory the whole introduction of the dream world was to be used as a story device for that. And that was the last playable update.sure is that spit on something here doesn't make any sense...
It would be more appropriate to drown him in shit on his patreon if need be, but nobody ever does.
On my side, I'm sorry he didn't finish the original family story ark, but I got used to patreon "inconsistency" by now...
I think I haven't seen a single finished game in 7 years, maybe I'm just unlucky (like I didn't know better..)
This is a new game for me, even pretty nice. if we are lucky we'll see a kind of storyark before retirement
("proot" means nothing... just didn't want to put a "dot")
IIRC, the last thing the dev mentioned about the dream world was that he was only going to add more content to it after completely finishing the next dungeon.Isn't he going to finish the family story ark? like from memory the whole introduction of the dream world was to be used as a story device for that. And that was the last playable update.
As for this taking so long, I get it cause it's unity, and an actual game, but also get it because the dev likes to be ambitious with their ideas. half the reason I never ended up making anything myself, is because my ideas are beyond my skill level to implement.
Where as this dev instead of trimming back, decided to go and bring his skill level up. The negative there being, time, takes quite a bit.
Do I want them to release an update already? 100%, but I also want it to be good.
O, btw just gonna throw this out there, this playtest does have sex scenes, you need to use the talisman things to unlock it tho. (I only did stuff with the catgirl so far myself).
They did the pov view pretty well too, some devs just have the cam there, and half-ass it, so tends to have clipping, or inside the players head but the head isn't hidden XD
Well, I'd say that is more of a general progression, if still a thing.IIRC, the last thing the dev mentioned about the dream world was that he was only going to add more content to it after completely finishing the next dungeon.
Of course, who knows if this is still the case as the scope for the next update has changed quite a bit.
