I assume you're referring to the developer's skill in this case?
I just played the game man, yeah I got beat a few times but I got it in the end.>"This game is buggy and softlocked 5 times"

You sure talk big for someone who only create games with still images and no real gameplay system. I still love your works but the way you go about your critics, while true at some part, is not it.>"This game is buggy and softlocked 5 times"
>"Skill issue"

A boss battle soft locking three times, forcing me to restart the entire level three times, isn't really me 'talking big', or 'not it' with my critiques. That's about as fair and objective as I can be.
And I appreciate that you may like this game and want to defend it, and I can appreciate that others may not have run into as many issues as I have with the game, but these are still important issues to raise awareness about, and it'd be inappropriate to act like I should just remain quiet about the fact my experience was so buggy and that I got soft locked five times throughout my playthrough.

give the game another chance because all you wanted was the sex scene, give it a try next patch then ditch it if it fails your standard

You talk about critique, which is your opinion, and opinions are subjective. I'm not even reading past that sentence.
Want instant banging? Go watch porn.
Boss' health could drop slightly faster. That's about it.
people cant read for shit here, im actually impressed
I can tolerate jank (when cheatengine is too much hassle); I'm aware that the indie h dev types probably aren't approaching these games with the mind that it gets food on the table. If there's any defense to it, it's that designing for the voyeur is for later—the subscriber's there for updates and they get them—with no promises for how fap—or gamer—friendly the update gets. Even then, there wasn't any promise of victory H with the sumo boss. I gather it's a bragging rights thing.
I didn't encounter any soft-locking. I exited the game after saving just before the boss, and it takes me to the same save point just before the boss—no restarts
-rambling from here-
As the dev, they can just enjoy their aseprite/photoshop/whatever-builder-software loops at their leisure so looking at H isn't even a concern—I infer for them it's making something work in the first place at all (and just being happy that they've even managed to make something for a hot second looking at Kyrieru, Kosmic91, umai-neko, musfan/aoinanaya and other..."暇-hobbyists", as opposed to, say eencya or Hinayua or who seem to have their circles professional and figured out likely from past work experience—and any extra hands they can find), which is a fair distance away from being able to sell something, let alone be worth subscribing for (...let alone sailing for). It's probably in there somewhere, but buried in other priorities. Dick-brain isn't the same as Inspired-from-game brain, which is also different from artist and programmer brain.
This isn't the most annoying game to me to be frank. I had no patience to sit through hitting all the adds (probably the intended way to play) and died a bunch ignoring them into to purples leading to hitstun loops, but the boss isn't really someone I concerned myself with beating since the only H scene I saw available from that was their block grab...
but even with that, and granting that I decided to try to beat them just now I can see that the health does seem needlessly padded. (it took five distracted tries, but just like regular mobs, just don't overcommit attacks and stay near the middle, you could probably get away with half-second slow reaction time assuming you're staying the first two barrels' gap away. When in doubt quick jab).
More annoying are the ridiculous crawler enemies in Fighting Girl Yuri (0.44 last played), but even that doesn't have H locked behind a saveless thread (and the game is easy to manipulate to DIY). At least Sekiren makes me feel like I'm making the mistake for a risky play than janked out because the hitboxes are ridiculous.
In any case, if Sekiren is unrecommendable/too egregious to support there's always Princess Reconquista to fill the gameplay niche

That reminds me FOBS was supposed to be just a gallery which they decided to turn into a game.
And I once made a comment on that games thread, while there were only updates on a different project which featured no gameplay, that they always be our favorite gallery artist and not dev.
