[Review based on Alpha 4.1]
As I walk down shanty Japanese villages with their ever kinky populace, I happened to come upon a rather shapely gem by the name of Roshutsu. Through that, I felt compelled to do a review, despite the game being in the barebones territory of alpha-land.
In that I'll try to be as honest as possible, bias's currently is mainly what was mentioned above, anything I say at the moment is subject to change considering the very early stage it's in. Anywho, onto the review.
Roshutsu is a game about exhibitionism, plain and simple. You are the heroine, you like running around naked, and the thrill of it all is what drives you. Currently the game offers less than a handful of uniforms, most of which can, and will be, taken off to appease the orgasm bar where once running around town, you get yourself off and try to edge yourself to then get multiplier points to then have a hell of an orgasm, or even multiple ones. Try not to get caught or you're sent back home (hence game over, at least for the night). That's mainly the core of the game.
Why is this good though? Why the five stars for something that isn't done? Well, like most early access products, its unwise to put all your stars eggs in one basket, as who knows where the game will go. But as for what it's currently promising, where toys, outfits, story and maybe even perks to be offered down the line, it probably for the most part will dominate the exhibition genre in the near future.
As unlike most exhibition games here, this one is 3d. And as far as that goes, the controls (as far as movement and stripping), alongside framerate all feel smooth. And I'm not talking 3d with a VN tag slapped alongside it, instead, it's a semi-realized 3d game with movement, and things to do while not immediately crashing. That's amazing, and rarely seen on this side of gaming (I know it exists on this site, but like, Viktor Black is the only dev worth a damn on that end...and potentially this one).
The heroine also looks good, the core concept doesn't feel jank or half baked, and for the most part it's a game that has a great balance of feeling like a game while also having the core concept still be smutty, and deliciously lewd. No overtipping of either side. The only caveat I can say is that for those who like both exhibitionism and sex mingling together to eventually have a freeuse type of sim, well, unfortunately that isn't going to be in here. For the most part the dev said that sex of any kind (as far as I currently know) won't be featured.
As for what it currently offers now, you probably won't get more than an hour unless you really like what the skeleton of it offers. And even then, there really isn't much yet, more just proof of concept, and the bones still need the meat. Alongside that, with it being in alpha as well, expect weirdness, bugs, confusion, UI placeholding, other placeholders, things to radically change, and well, the usual for such a stage.
The only thing I can really critique at this stage and not feel like the alpha tag is weighing too heavily on my shoulders is what is going to be the punishment for the heroine when caught? I mean the game does end technically, but then you can just do it allover again easily the next night and not feel as though you lost at all. This is mainly more so a question considering that with the lack of sex, and story so far, there seems to be no real loss scenario/punishment for the player save for redoing the same gameloop again.
Overall, for the future's sake I decided to give five stars in hopes that it will hold up in the near future. Again, there isn't much of a game here, but what the dev has shown, it's going to be the game for this narrow genre. I only at this point wish the dev good luck, and hope to probably re-review this properly once it's at a stage where it's warranted. 5/5
