Stunning visuals, a rather interesting story, but it already seems to have at least 3-4-5 different routes. Love, corruption/lust, reject, evil, good, maybe brave/coward. That's gonna be a lot. While I do love a branching game that will look like a tree, the production time might suffer because of it, especially if it's a one man team.

One big problem exists though, the game mechanics. Not having auto-save is a pain in the ass, since that is a basic Renpy feature. The other problem is, that after a while, skipping isn't an option. Not if you watch text you already saw, or even if you select the skip unseen text mode in the options. One or the other should work properly, because if someone's gonna check all the routes like I did now, it's going to turn into a pain in the ass clickfest eventually for the players.
Yeah my save feature is bad. I'm gonna work on this problem this week so I can release a patch or something.
About the branching, I don't wanna spoil anyone but they are just 2 big ones.

Awesome renders, story and environment seems interesting but the ntr and all that shit about mom(being hoe, that cum scene and some other things) already disgusted me and made a no no game, it's a shame because could have lots of potential. Just can't support this kind of games. But we'll wish you the best in the fan base this game is centered and that you can keep delivering renders with that quality

1. It's too small for a walkthrough, I think so. When it gets bigger I'm gonna make an official one.
2. Can be a love interest and can be a sexual one.
3. NTR needs a relationship with a character (mostly love one), once you make a "real" relationship with any female character there is no possibility of NTR.

Thank you for your interest.
According to this sites definition of ntr.
Netorare (寝取られ) is a sexual fetish designed to cause sexual jealousy by way of having the heroine indulge in sexual activity with someone other than the protagonist.

For a game to be classified as Netorare the following conditions must be met:
1. The heroine either must be romantically involved with the protagonist, a potential romance for him or of someone that the protagonist shares such a close relationship (sister, mother, osananajimi etc.)

2. Related sexual events are explicitly shown to the player or later described in detail.

She's his mother and possible Love interest as stated in #1 a potential love interest or shares such a close relationship (mother)
Ntr tag should apply to this game

Mc getting to be in a relationship with someone is obviously going to take a minute so ntr or watching a potential love interest be with other men should be avoidable and players choice? That way people that like it can enjoy and people that don't like it can also enjoy your game Just my opinion but it should be tagged properly so people can avoid it and not have it surprise them in the middle of the game?

Thank you for your time :)

I like the idea of this game but I can't financial support a game that is about things I don't like or can't avoid I just don't support games that force players fans into situations they may not like ntr is one of those situations if I can avoid fine it's even better because it lets both players that like it have it and players that don't can also enjoy?

Sure. So by this definition, a game with a chad protagonist who looks to cuck a bunch of husbands by getting with their wives, is an ntr game if it shows hubby and wife fucking at any point. I mean the sensitive psyche of the player controlling the chad might get hurt and evoke some jealousy... Despite controlling the character who will get to cuck said husbands.

Or in an incest game, if daddy and mommy are shown to fuck, like married people are supposed to do...are they cucking their son in an ntr game?

Japanese people who coined the term, long before wegs were a thing, would be having a stroke right now.

so will most of the game be about him remembering people he met along his life or will we get to the present and continue his journey ?
some backstory is cool but i honestly don't like the whole this already happened and i'm just learning about it.

I like that this is a more serious story with vampires and its set in "medieval" times. The renders also look great.

This is the sites definition not mine and to be honest if the game is about the mc then I don't see any reason to show or talk about what mom a dad do or don't do behind closed doors? Not relevant to mc's story so a sex scene between others that isn't relevant to mc's story or to mc himself in my opinion doesn't do anything for the story just an excuse to put in an early sex scene but to tie to something players may not enjoy and then forcing them to see it is not advantageous to a developer trying to get fans and funding when it could be made avoidable so that fans of both camps can enjoy his great game just my opinion?

if its a love interest then YES its ntr. if its just some girl that the character and by extension the player doesn't care about than no.falling in love with a married woman sounds like a nightmare tbh both you and the husband are cucking eachother.

Hi, thanks for your input. What I'm trying to give right now to the player is the ability to change some aspects from his past and the ones surrounding him. Those aspects will change his personality "in the present" when we get there. If he was a coward all his past, he couldn't be a brave protagonist.

-Visually amazing.
-The writing is pretty high brow. I'm not sure how I feel about that in a porn game where I look generally to be teased, turned on and to drop a load.
-I found the female characters to be okay, but nothing that's got me curling my toes. They are rendered masterfully for sure but I didn't find them particularly attractive.
-Right now if I play again it will be curiosity to see how it develops but not because I'm into the girls. Which at the end of the day is what its about right, the girls? IDK.
-Felt the MC was feminate and a beta which also doesn't do much for me. Each their own though.

-That said most of this stuff comes down to personal taste I suppose. I would definitely recommend you give it a try. The quality is there.

Certainly encourage the Dev to continue. Don't let me discourage you by any means. You've got crazy talent and I'm sure there is an audience for this game but I'm not sure its me, and that's okay. I might check back in a year and see what's what. (y)

I'm always amazed at how some people find it unbearable when mommy has sex with someone who's not the MC (sometimes even if that's the MC's father!!) but the fact that a mother fucks her son poses no problem at all. It's really funny.
if the MC is in love with her and you empathise with the MC than no shit that the people that don't like ntr will be angry. there is nothing to be amazed about. I don't like M/S incest so i avoid it when given the option but it isn't any different than any other LI.

-Felt the MC was feminate and a beta which also doesn't do much for me. Each their own though.
he is literally a child in that memory. don't let that jaw fool you. you can see that he looks older in the "present" hopefully he is at least of average height because i don't want to play as a goblin

Just curious will ntr be a main factor in this game? Will it be avoidable at some point or will it be forced?
I do like this game obviously or I would have just moved on I would like to enjoy it in the future that's why I'm asking?

Thank you for your time :)

its not forced, you know she is a prostitute and that she is your mother before you can choose to do anything with her. if you still continue on that path its on you.
