Haha, sorry about that! I really enjoy your game, and I'm looking forward to playing this latest update ASAPWow, second place? Cool! Glad you enjoyed the game.
Ahhh shit, I just realized they're in alphabetical order
Oh yes, I agree entirely. It would have made for a richer, more satisfying story if she had grown a bit, experienced other people, and still considered coming back to the MC under the right circumstances. That would be a more resonant, true-to-life tale.
Accidental Assignment: The initial release was promising. We were given an interesting premise where the MC is assigned as an undercover to agent to a small company full of nice, innocent people who did not deserve MC's deception. But the latest update did absolutely nothing with that, and instead turned into a slice-of-life office drama. It wasn't bad by any means, but not what I was looking for either. Also, the developers are apparently unhappy with the financial prospects of their game and are scaling back their production. I'm still cautiously optimistic, but I've tapered my expectations.
I agree: the new update suggests that AA's dev felt pressure to include a sex scene -- _any sex scene_ -- in order to satisfy the punters. That is never a good sign, if we're concerned about a compelling narrative or characters.
Isabella - Dark Paths: Chapter 2.3 is out for patrons, with proofreading services by yours truly
I enjoyed the update, as per usual, and appreciate that Badtimes has managed to stick to his vision and avoid porny tropes. The story is intriguing, and has kept me guessing... always a good sign! As Jufot says, the LI interactions are brilliant. The last episode had too much exposition involving William, to my taste -- this is better. Show, don't tell, if possible...
Rebirth: Episode 4: Episode 3 is done and dusted! It was generally a slog, so it's good to see episode 4 pick up the pace. It seems like we're finally about to discover what's going on in that cave. Can't wait for the next update!
Rebirth reminds me more and more of a vampire version of the Dev's first game, which had some very slow and dull sections. But... the story and worldbuiding are, again, the reason why I keep coming back.
i liked it to be honest. I just hope the mystery will be the main theme in this one and I hope it won't turn into the lovey doey college game.
I only played one of the earlier versions of it, but I had a good impression of it. The themes it explores were pretty interesting and the insanity stuff is something I enjoy. I probably played it in the totally opposite way as you (cheating and turning the MC insane lol), but that means both routes had a convincing execution I guess. Actually, it's been too long that I kinda forgot most details, but I remember it being very good all around. Notably, it was quite responsive to your choices in terms of coding. Nice use of variables and flags to alter dialogues and routes.
Haha, no worries and welcome to the thread! Both games were indeed mentioned here. I still haven't played Between Two Worlds, but I did check out Color of My Sound last year. Beneath the ridiculous porn tropes, there is a decent story.
What is it with you and your irrational hatred of magic dream ladies?Well, that's one less game in my backlog then

They are not the ladies of his dreams.
Yes, and yesBut he quoted both the magic dream lady and the conveniently gay male friend. Maybe the combination was the straw that broke the camel's back.
