Hey Jack Kelly is only fucking you bc the color of your skin

This is a perfect example of free-roam done really poorly.

Click here, here, here, here, here, do this tiny thing, click here, here, here, here, here, and here, repeat. And then maybe, you'll see a scene of little significance or interest. It's ridiculously tedious.

The worst part is, you don't know where you are or where you're going when clicking on doors.

I'll pass.

since there are no reviews can anyone tell me more about the game like content wise,grind etc?

I didn't want to rip it with a negative review, but suffice it to say that I now feel like an idiot for wasting the 7 mins of my life installing and launching this one.

Spoiler: I'm an idiot

Maybe because it is not worth a review? ...

Its the worst kind of free-roam. You have no hint or indicator where to go or find anything. The premise is stupid as fuck. You play a 12-15 year old guy how need to get drugs to get into the girls restroom, because another girls is standing in front of them. To get the drugs you have to find a guy who seems to be out of the school .. somewhere.
After the non-introduction to our MC the first scene is, that we see the teacher disappearing with a black student ... into the girls restrooms .. and just to follow them we have to do that stupid "quest".

This feels alot like a RPGM game done in renpy, just to keep all that stuff that sucks in RPGM games.

I cant tell anything more, bc after searching for that drug dude in the school (thats why I think he might be outside) I lost interest and deleted the game. And that means something ... I have currently over 500 GB porn games on my harddrive ^^

Edit:

Ok - I can do that ^^

Renders are great but the gameplay sucks ass and there's virtually no content. Might be back after a few updates.

 

[botc76]

Sadly I have to agree with all the others, the gameplay sucks. After being frustrated that nothing happened I used the walkthrough in the op, but there it says to click the house in the upper right corner of the map, probably to talk to the kid who knows where the drug dealer is, but then you just get told he isn't home yet by his mom.... and if you advance time it's dark and the door is locked.

 

[DarkSithLord47]

fuck it then and thanks to all the guys who took a bullet and wasted a few minutes so the rest of us wont

 

[Tutti Frutti]

Hey guys. You're too prejudiced for the game. The developer is taking his first steps.

It's bad, there bad, here bad...

It is better to give constructive ideas than do it this way.

good or bad. as a result there is a labor.

with us in the developer forum. I think it could be a better one with logical criticism.

Too bad it's a step-mom...this needs an incest patch.
O
Another thing is it's quite grindy and you need a walkthrough to play which kinda ruins the game play. I read a little of the walkthrough and realized i missed a lot of scenes. And playing intuitively (the fun gameplay) is a pain because you get lost and click away. Following a walkthrough is not really playing IMO.
I hope these two things get fixed, but I get it's a long shot for the gameplay aspect; it's easier in comparison for the incest patch, I guess.

oh look someone called it suck without being constructive enough.
Gameplay might be suck, but at least the developer is not some grumpy twat who attacks people for pointing out something that they don't like.

Has anyone besides me the situation where Windows Smartscreen pops up, until i started the exe ?

yea, i guess other members who are not trolls need to 5 vote to counter 1 votes of new all games, not because they are excellent, but to make sure they might reach it

this is what I see(in attachment)

also: Release Date: 2019-09-01
v0.3 <--- so how is that review not a troll review? not like she/he made 10 updates

I really hate cancel culture

 

[Belnick]

played this now and think it is a great start of a game, I expected this to look and be like that Simpsons game considering what other have said, but this was really great for such early release, I hope the best for this game and wish to play the next update already
btw the quests are very easy to fix and take no time to do, I dont see the whine about that.
btw the sunbathing lady have another scene even if it say "for next update"

ps, landlady=mom in the savegame file
I bet there will be an incest patch made for those that would like that

 

[Trasher2018]

Because got a msg from the dev and saw that there are some post in here about my review, I will post my response here too. My intention was not to troll anybody.

Its valid, because I lost interest so quick, and I tried probably most of the games on this site. My list contains of 384 rated games.

And the game needs more hints. Just a plain "find xxx to talk about yyy" is not enough. Whe have no indicator where interact able people are (like in some other "sandboxy/freeroam" games. I dont like this blind trigger hunting - and that is just my opinion, as I have said in and with my review. Maybe there are players that do like it, than they can see that I didnt like that and why I rated the game so low.

Maybe I could have used a 2 star rating, because 1 is indeed very low and the technical side is solid - there are worse games out there.

And dont be offended. When you like the game and the gameplay as it is, than it is fine. I just mentioned my problems with the game. Maybe have a look at "Cure my addiction", they have quite a good hint system, that still needs some searching and testing, but gives at least some help to find the tiggers.

You can see that there are some like for my review, so maybe I am not alone with my opinion. I will never tell anyone how to make their game, but sometimes it is good to get some critic - and negative critic is more helpful than positive, because there is no perfect thing, everything has a flaw ^^

And dont neglect my opinion with "you are a hater" - when I really hate something, I dont bother to write something about it. Its not worth my time. The fact that I wrote something and take my time to answer in this length should be an indicator that I am not just a hater. I really hope that your game will find an audience and with some improvements it might become even a game for me to enjoy. I hoped for some intoxication fetish because of the drug tag ...

There art and tech is solid and with improved writing/translation and maybe a better hint system or other gameplay improvements I can see me playing the game in the future - and changing my review, wouldnt be the first one. Especially these game that are always in development, they need revisits from time to time

I hope you can understand my points and I wish you all the best for yourself and your project

Edit: oh and sorry for my bad english, I am not a native speaker ^^

Everyone that can live with more or less blind trigger-hunt in these games, might have fun with it - the art is solid, as I said and only the look of the MC and his friend is just nothing I like. I dont like free-roam in general, and I hate it when it is done in a even worse way like in this game. There are games (like I mentioned in my pm) that are playable (for me) and did enough to help the player. Even then It's nothing I particular like, but as I said, I can endure that for the nice renders and characters.

But I lost interest so quick, because the game trows you into its awful mechanics so fast that you dont know anything about the MC or any other character. Thats why a lot of these games have a pure VN start to introduce the characters to us.

Ok .. but that enough now ...^^

I cant wait for the next update and I hope the developer does not stop because of angry trolls.

1. You are either a troll or you are angry. Trolls do their shit to piss people off, not because they are pissed off. Angry trolls basically makes no sense. If Thrasher got angry after playing the game and then gave it a negative review, that is definitely not trolling. It's called "not liking a game."
2. Where do you get off just attacking people and calling them trolls, with the sole reason being they don't enjoy the game the way you do?

If you like free-roam and you think playing around for hours to get a few scenes that you would be able to read through in a regular vn in 20 minutes, that's great... for you.
Just because some of us don't like it to blindly stumble around and wait for some trigger that doesn't seem to be working half of the time and waste a shitload of time for very little content, it doesn't make us trolls.

I gave this game a fair chance, but when I can't even trigger shit following the walkthrough, then sorry, but that is bad gameplay for me.
You don't have to sugarcoat everything, just because a dev is new. If you excuse every mistake and all that is annoying in his game, just because he is new, what reason would he ever have to improve himself.
He has a patreon, so he wants to earn money with this, therefore his goal should be to satisfy the people who pay him.
Telling him everything is great won't help him with that.

Very true, you really said what I wanted to say not just in this thread, but in a lot of the other threads too. Even though I have a lot of things to say I will leave it from here as I don't want to post off topics.
