Okay you make the story like that but that rape makes the players push them away from the game tho you know?

My whole point is that it's just let us save her before rape/penetration happens. Why is that so important that "it's that scene make the whole point of how she is behaving after". How she behaves before and after? Why is that so important that you can't change just a little bit to tone it down and make the story adjustments that way. With this you're losing without any gain. But if that's your final decision than i'm going to walk away and wish you good luck.


Nah bro it's just skippable not avoidable. The game is KN it's just skips those scenes.
Well as we all know its the devs choice. Now its up to the dev to decide "Do I want to pull people in or drive players away." I am writing my own vn and watching all the mistakes other devs make such as things like this rape crap. I get his story point but as a player as well as someone making their own game I see how this effects people and how it drives them away. Things like this needs to be stoppable not skippable. I see too many games crash and burn because of devs claiming skippable is good enough. you have to get into the mindset of a player immersing themselves into the story and see it from their side. This also hold true for the futa trans content. Skipping it doesnt make it not happen and will again drive people away form the game.

One of the reason I make it skippable after the first feedbacks on the prologue.

At first, that what I wrote about. but then, when I start to render, I was feeling that her being raped would put more drama and more broken psychic in the girl.

That and my non-mastering of DAZ


Will be hard to explain without spoil the next chapter.

The problem is the players mindset. skipping it instead of interrupting it and stopping it is a break point for players. Basically your killing your own player base before the game even starts getting going and you wont lure them back later. Do you want a wider audience for your game or a small fetish group? Instead of making it skippable make it stoppable.. Keep your render for those in that small fetish group but change the story a little and remove it for those not liking it at all. One missing render and some tweaks to the dialog and instead of killing your player base you will make it grow.

Things like this should not be dealt with "later" Stop and see what people are saying now and change it before you get too far in if you wait too long people are going to read these post and those that do not like the content are already gone. There are a few ways you can rewrite it without a lot of change if you do it now. You have to decide now if you want to change it to make it stoppable before it gets to the penetration point or ignore the warnings people are posting and lose a chunk of your player base. The same effect can still be used on her mindset but the players mindset will not be turned off from the game. He is about to penetrate her then the MC steps in pulls him off and deals with him. She will still suffer mentally if you word it right.

You don't get it, I didn't mean I'll deal it later. When I said "Later", I'm saying about what I already wrote. (In a few chapters after).

I just need to find the dialog to rewrite. Just let me take the time to do it properly.

I look forward to seeing the changes. Not trying to be a ass to you but the fastest way to drive people away is with so called skippable content they do not like. It should be the same with all other content. Simple choice Yes it happens or no it doesnt happen and is stopped in its tracks. Take your gay and futa content. Same thing you can still have it but the player choice is it happens or it doesnt happen at all. That does not mean the content is removed for those not liking it or characters no longer are seen in the game but instead of lovers or what ever the story goes on and they have a friendly relationship instead. Careful wording is all you need for that but you can make both sides of the genre happy. Mine will not have the fetishes yours has but it will have choices. Player will choose to pursue romantically or sideline the girls in the friendzone. The only loss would be extra content.

The "STORY", yea it's interesting, but it doesn't flow right...
The grammar, yea that's total garbage, sad this is, they knew it was trash when the put it out, yet put it out anyways without letting a proof reader have a go at fixing all the mistakes... Moreover, what ever "code" that lets the player chose the name for the MC, yea, that's broken as well, because no matter what name you pick the MC gets called the default name throughout the entire thing...
Find a proofreader that's first language is English... Not someone who thinks they know English...

Sorry if you think I'm attacking you, but just telling it how it is...

No you right, I did release knowing it wasn't the best english writing. As I said before, I tried to focus on the render more than the writing. I thought it was important to understand more of DAZ before the writing.

sooooo bi?
Bisexual people are potentially attracted to males and females. Pansexual people are also potentially attracted to those who do not identify as either male or female.

Yes, I can understand that there is overlap here, but to those in the community, there is a difference, however subtle you may find it.

I played it and it has quite good content being chapter 1, the renders are not bad but there are some lighting problems in few, the sister looks hot and thats as far as the only good thing right now...saying the english is bad is an understatement cuz i almost gave up 5 mins in and i played further only cuz the story kept me intriguing at that point, the dev has an idea and story to tell which is good, but he badly needs a scriptwriter the way the scenes are structured is poor, and it does lot of bad to the game than good. For example, i could tell that the Dev wanna try to portray the MC as a "Trying to do good" kinda guy but at the same time he comes off as some kinda psychopath and emotionless asshole, there is also repetition of scenes which maybe boring, and also auto playing some scenes are too fast and frankly i would like to click to progress the scene and the white background in text is annoying transparent text box could be better...though there are some issues i dont wanna nitpick too much since its his first game and the story seems good till this point especially the love-hate relationship with the sister and the broken Kohana girl situation, i would suggest atleast getting the dialogues fixed and coherent for the next release since i think this could be good if the dev is willing to continue the project....

And about the crying over the rape scene is unbelievable, its like saying rape victims should never be a LI and are somehow dirty and destined to be alone forever, srsly what the hell is wrong with people... its literally "rape" not some fantasy or JAV kinda rape, actual rape and its not shown in a sexual way and not meant to be sexualized, and though there are people who who dont wanna see rape in adult games, its happening in the real world around us and should not be ignored and let the dev tell the story, also theres only one render of the actual act being shown and its necessary for a plot point (for the sister to drink MC's blood) also from what i've seen the MC is the Alpha kinda type and u can bet he's not gonna let anyone touch his Harem so rest easy...

I have a question to the people who read the chapter 1.

I thought that was a solid way to Bite and feed her blood unintentionally of course, it was well done actually, as for the render itself it gets the point across so i didn't think too much about it but like i said the lighting in some H scenes could be better, good luck!

Hell that was a good start, but it went to waste as soon as the rape scene came. That scene could have been treated only as a hostage scene and no rape. One golden rule is not to put family members or LI in any such scene or get to say goodbye to players. And it is no longer enough to have a button that does not need to be seen. 5/5 shit :poop::poop::poop::poop::poop:
