HTML - Syrup Town [v2.5] [NoodleJacuzzi]

Better than a slew of other AI 'assisted' games on here, but it's not a very high bar to beat. It has a good arrangement of neat ideas for a rather straightforward scene collector, but the AI art has its typical flaws while also being paired with incredibly juvenile writing. Lots of
AUUUUUUUUGHHHH!!!!!
And
CUUUUUM!!!!!!

That type of thing. You know, the great quality you'd expect.

As for the flaws with the AI art, it's not the sort involving horrible fingers. The renders are actually nice, albeit simple and far from impressive. No, the issue is that they are incredibly detached from events. Due to their very nature, you're almost always just an observer or using toys. There are a few scenes where a cock is present, but that's the end of the line. Disembodied cock. That's you. Despite people's ability to now make full on character-on-character renders, that takes a lot of work that most AI..."""artists""" just aren't willing to commit to. This game is no different, meaning 90% of the renders are you looking at a cock or ass and not much more.

You get to look, not touch.

If this game had actual art and a writing class or two thrown in, it may very well be a lovely little game. Simple, not taking itself too seriously, and rather cozy in design. But alas, such things are not to be.

Decent game! I enjoyed the art and concept. The characters are really cute. I was skeptical of the AI art at first since it's usually sloppy low effort garbage with glaring errors, but it was surprisingly good. Picking Syuro to base the AI art off was a good choice. I like their style, but the content is usually too hyper for me. Also it was nice to share a detailed guide on how to generate it. The little side jigsaw and collectables are cool. More characters, and more story would be good. Right now in v2 it feels too short. I played for 4 hours, but 80% of that time was doing the side jigsaw puzzles.

Absolutely really early in development, but what's here is kinda cute I guess.
It's a bit of a VN-ish sandbox where you just wander around a town full of "Animal Crossing"-themed furry characters (male or female, your pick) and get into sex shenanigans with them while finding/unlocking random collectables all over the place. I like changing their "outfits" to make them all pregnant.

Anyway, not much to say for now, sorry for the short review.

(EDIT: also I forgot to mention that the game is REALLY heavy on anal. The dev's definitely got an anal fixation of some kind as a very large chunk of the game's content is anal as far as I've seen. Big puffy assholes everywhere, which is a real waste since picking the male MC and female townspeople, you'd think all the content would be vaginal, but nah.)

This game is like, illegally cute. There's not a ton of stuff to do yet, but what's there is real good, the smut is fun, and the art is super consistent for AI generated. I also like the collectables, particularly the Jiggies. Looking forward to seeing what happens with this one!

Outside of the use of art and all the ethical issues one would suspect from that the quality of every other aspect of the game is pretty great. The writing is decent, the CGs are great, and most aspects of gameplay are pretty competent for a project so early in development. Definitely giving bonus points for it being of good quality for something pretty early in development.

Writing is good, Art is nice and stylish and the scenes are very good (especially Riley and Cayenne.) The scenes are easily obtainable and doesn't really require a good amount of effort like (ex. Encode encore and working wife in sex city.) it's simple it's good and it's a rare instance where AI is used correctly and properly. overall just a pretty solid game looking foward to 2.0 and 2.5

As per usual, NoodleJacuzzi's writing is very enjoyable, which is crucial to a HTML game, but the decision to go with legally distinct Animal Crossing short stack characters is interesting and one that I personally enjoy, and I will mainly be talking on the furry version of the game.
The use of AI-generated images is a bit iffy, but understandable, since the artstyle only hits a niche within a niche compared to live pornographic material or anime as with the dev's previous projects. I can only hope that they worked out a deal with the artist and both parties came to an agreement.
With that being said, these are by far the best execution of AI-images in a game. The generations are consistent between images of the characters and devoid of any anomalies. The art style remains consistent all throughout and very visually pleasing.
Something that I think could be better is that the environment images with AI's signature lack of shading and variation make navigation slightly confusing.
All in all, the next entry of NoodleJacuzzi games looks extremely promising, and combined with the dev's track record, I have nothing but the highest expectations for its future.

+ AI art, but stylistic and subsequently high 'finish', if a bit inconsistent
+ Fun, decent writing
+ Nice bg music, though maybe the transition is a bit sudden
+ Neat characters
+ Jigsaw puzzles (with an ezmode in case it's too annoying)
+ Collectibles for bonus 'assets'.
+ Trophy* catalogue as tips for progressing characters

- Still early in development and missing a lot of useful details
- Collectibles are neat, but poorly organised for visibility/access.
- Collectibles are also not particularly interesting to collect. Feels like just a thing that happens on the side while you ignore it.
- Occasionally some of the art will be a bit jank and it's a little bit of a killjoy.

~ Seems like a smaller game than previous titles. Whether or not this means more content per character, I don't know, but it would be fine even if not.

--------------

I'll revise and update this as more goes on.
I was a fan of the previous game by this person, so I may have some bias, but it's a simple experience.

As it currently is this game is a nice little proof of concept of a simple sandboxed based html game. While it does use Ai for the art elements I can at least respect the fact that they try to keep the art consistent so a blond character isnt vaguely 2 other hair colored characters or something. Not to mention openly admitting its AI and even having a link to the artist they're using as the base of the style.

You go to an animal crossing like town where you can fish and catch bugs daily and interact with what little characters there currently are and get some scenes here and there. Since its a sandbox it's about what you'd expect from one having an endless loop by design. Do little chores, talk to characters, get some fuck, repeat. Not a lot of content currently but its a decent start that could go either way.

other than having to put together ai generated puzzles (for bonus content only) phenomenal time, i really hope more comes out of it! im absolutely going to check out some other games by them. the coin, magazine, and bootleg pokemon cards are very fun

Game is so good, Although I wish there were videos but with ai I know that's hard, I love how there is a mode for gay people or straight people :3
Keep up the great work! I can't wait to see more from you

It's a really good start!
Game is in early development stage, so there's a lot of placeholders and visually unappealing things, but I love the core idea.

Pros:

1. AI art: developer in pretty clear about his use of AI, mentions original artist AI is trained on and aknowledge AI as a tool. Also gives a guide how it works! As lurker nerd this is big thumb up from me.
2. Writing: I like it, the main plot is basic but has a solid ground and dialogues between characters are lively. Also high amount of jokes.
3. Web: it's web, no need to download.
4. Cheats: if you want to, you can use cheats, always love when you are not forced to get everything to watch scenes.
5. Content selection: you can choose if you want to see male only, female only content. Also can change genitals on some characters.

Cons:

1. UI: needs overlook
2. BG: characters sprites are good, but BG looks bad rn
3. Art consistency: cards, bg, sometimes characters have problems with design consistency. Still nothing Photoshop can't solve.

Scenes: too short.

I want to see how this develops, good luck NoodleJacuzzi!

I have played almost every game that this developer put out, and I must say that they make pretty enjoyable games, and this one is no exception. It's still early to say much, but the idea itself seems pretty good, and this is one of the few games that use AI that I find nice to look at. I personally enjoy many of Dagasi's artwork, so this game was a pleasant surprise to me, and I wish the developer good luck with this game.

the concept alone deserves 5 starts . A mostly good time with a great deal of content. The game has its share of flaws, but they're overblown as far as the reception is concerned. I highly recommend playing it for yourself to see how you feel. I also enjoy the fact the much of the art has been unified under a single artist. Just really smooths things out and makes it look nice.

Genuining thought i'd be put off by the AI art but its,,, ok.

Game loop is kinda grindy but i blame the game being in the early stages for that all around customizable and genuinely a good fap.

the collectible system could be a little better it's all random and they don't mention you can just but most of the items as soon as you grab the first one

Syrup Town [v1]: Has Potential, Theme-Underaged Furries artstyle.
**NPCs in this game are all with Underaged Furries arts. Tho the dev mentioned characters themselves are not, just the artstyle happens to appear so.
**It's also on a very early stage, not a lot of contents, but needs tons of improvement.
It's a point clicking game where you click around to trigger events, find collectables.
Pros:

• The dev seems to hv a genuine attitude
• Thanks to AI Arts, MC / Some NPC can switch between Penis version, Vagina version and Futa version, while remain the same character

Cons:

• Game loop is very boring. Nothing interesting at all If you don't dig the sex scenes
• AI Arts. The dev does a decent Job on Editing, but there are still tons of weird parts and errors. And those faces you see everywhere
• UI is a big mess, almost atrocious
  • poor choice of font,
  • oversize, overstretch everywhere
  • Poor execution on copycatting Persona's name-plate style, made them Illegible, wobbly
• (Sex) Events are very short, shorter than average "text-based" game. Normally just a few AI images plus a few lines of dialog
• Writing is also lacking for a "text-based" game
• Although the game has access to straight, gay, futa; nothing exclusive to any of them, all you see is "Penis reaction", "Vagina reaction", "Breast Reaction".

A very enjoyable game with some content already. Lots of furry and gay content. I really like the character customization elements.

The pictures are AI, but they look really good. It shows the authors had a lot of work with it.

The game is a visual novel with some grind elements, nothing fancy. There are also some jigsaws as well.
