Deadmoon Survival

Give it a shot. It's pretty good. Zombie Apocalypse incest story that actually has proper characters dealing with survival and incest urges. The writing is quite good and the relationships are treated with much more realism than most incest scenarios. I assume most people here have what it takes to stick it out at the beginning despite the MC being quite... weak at the start. It will certainly annoy people who want the MC to quickly take charge and be a survival chad or something, but he does show character growth throughout and will blossom in the coming updates.

As for the NTR, it's not really true NTR. There are some avoidable zombie rapes (that doesn't lead to bad end), optional lesbian between mom/sis, avoidable flashback of mom getting carried away and cheating on her husband (didn't happen if you don't pick the choices during flashback). Tbh, even if you pick all the choices that lead to these scenes, the plot doesn't turn into NTR. Mom and Sis loves the MC with all their heart. It just makes the narrative more convincing imo.

Reluctant Archon is likely dead, yes. Mad World is active, no matter what the F95 thread says. Hell, the latest development update on Patreon was barely 10 days ago! Three Rules of Life only has wallpapers on Patreon, true, but it does mean the developer is still around.

Ultimately, I don't care about any sort of timeline. I support developers who barely make one release per year, and it's fine by me because it's the vision I care about, not the schedule. The list in the OP reflects that :)
I just finished Mad World. What's already out is pretty great (the fight scenes). It's choreographed really well!

And as opposed to Deluca, I don't really mind having an update a year for Mad World. I crave and can't get enough of Deluca but I'm fine with slow update for Mad World as long as the devs doesn't stop. Hopefully it gets more popular

I've read another 2 AVN's suggested in this thread

1. Leaving DNA

Reallly strong beginning for just being a demo. Surprisingly fluid dialogue, a strong emphasis on character building, good renders, interesting story...nice stuff. Definitely not your typical AVN so far which is always appreciated=) My favourite scene was probably the break up one between the MC and Aghavni... And the best line imo was

which was actually kinda funny..

2. Dreams of Reality

Well this AVN has problems, alot of problems imo :p. Mainly it's the MC and also the LI's. I played the "faithful" route, basically telling the game nonstop that i'm 100% with the MC's wife and still the MC behaved like a total imbecile, falling for every woman he comes across... Just annoying espacially in this game. Why do you have all those choices in the first place when the MC doesn't reflect them at all? It makes no sense after some time.. And it's not only the behaviour of the MC it's also the situations they take place in. The by far absolute worst example would be

. Yeah..... There're so many scenes in this game where i was asking myself why?, just why?. And that's just the "good guy" route...I don't even wanna know how the game feels like on the insanity, fuck em all path...

So yeah, this game was just a big, hot mess in my opnion. A for effort, C- for execution.

Yeah, I agree on both counts.

_LDNA_ is a very good effort for a demo, and evidences a degree of effective forethought and plotting by the dev. The characters are distinctive, they react to each other logically, and there are few obvious porn tropes. The MC is designed to appeal to a wide (mostly male, normie, seeking wish fulfillment) player demographic... and he's a bit of a 'type.' But this is clearly a story-first effort and I think the demo is a success.

I think it's still far to early to draw any firm conclusions about _LDNA_ -- but it's an encouraging start.

_Dreams of Reality_ is, indeed, a hot mess. There are some appealing quirks and dialogue choices, and the central conceit is intriguing... but it doesn't hold together... either as a narrative or as a game.

I'd love to see a dev offer a realistic depiction of a successful, erotic, monogamous (or generally monogamous with cheating) relationship... but this isn't it.

Deliverance might fit the bill
I'd second this. You can pursue multiple LI's but the monogamous choice doesn't feel like you're being penalized.

The Language of Love is another very nice one. It's really linear though, if that's a turnoff. Melody is good too. I've only done the route for the title character but that's well done monogamy.

Maybe you could try Defending Lydia Collier if you haven't. Quite some branching, most of the paths are monogamous I think. And then there's Jessica O'Neil's Hard News, quite sure you can avoid all the group sex, cheating and heavy teasing.

I'm a fan of ebi-hime's writing, and this VN was no exception. Unfortunately, she is self-admittedly not great at writing good male characters, which definitely applies to the MC here. He's such a pitiful fedora-tipping neckbeard cliche, it was kind of nauseating.

Still a nice story, though. I even wrote a review for it back then :)

Seconded, JOHN is worth it for Heather's path alone.

I've done about 10 of these.

Tlaero
I really need to get back around to your stuff one day. I played a few of them years ago and I liked them. Back when you had the browser versions, the last title I played was one about Atlantis, I believe. Played a couple of Elsa titles and one or two of the Keelie(SP?) ones.

Superheroes Suck has an update out, and it's amazing! I won't spoil it, but it's now apparent to me that the entire main story was planned out from the beginning, more than 2 years go.

The dev is taking a break from the story and will be focusing on the sandbox stuff for a while, so this is a good point to catch up for those interested :)

Sure, the power reveal has been very well built since the beginning (I don't think any fan theory has been totally right as nobody thought about the transfer rate related to how they control their powers), the whole story was already planned out and Dev has stated several times that he will bring it to the end no matter the support he gets, but for me, the most shocking revelation was that the MC is actually the one who accidentally brought Artemisia to 'life' and not just the one who stuck with her when she started to detect those anomalies in her code. Didn't see that coming at all.
