Overview:
''The Castaways'' is one of many games being created in a fictional American city known as ''Flash City''. Flash City is a city known for its glitz and glam through the many nightclubs and casinos found throughout the city. Some say it's like New York City, other's say it's like Las Vegas. In reality, the city is the outcome of what you get when you combine both together.

In the Castaways, you will play as a 24 year old male, who, accompanied by your wife, join your fa-friends
So i guess incest patch will be coming?

How many of these trashy daz slideshow clones with 0 patrons before Patreon stops them. They desperately need to introduce a publishing fee like steam.
And I would pay for that fee gladly. You've got no right coming in here looking at some screenshots and writing this, I can tell you definitely didn't play the demo, but to those who did thank you very much.

Also, it's my first game, so lighten up a little bit. Is it daz studio assets? Sure, that's why the story must be a good one.

I apologize to you if you didn't like the DEMO just by judging the screenshots. But thanks for taking the time to post your comment.

Whenever you see this game pop up in the future, just don't click it. Again, thank you and have a nice day Mr. Hyped.

I was going to leave a more "detailed" review, but I'll refrain. It's not your fault that this site is cluttered with painful daz slideshows. Good luck with the game.

I would honestly like to read your more ''detailed'' review as all you could really talk about is the events that unfolded leading up to what is going to take place in the future chapters. However, if there is something of significance it will aid me in the future chapters. As they say, criticism is worth more than compliments but for an intro created specifically for informing the players about the story more than the graphical side of things, eh, it is too early.

My main goal with this demo is to see what people thought about the story. I didn't expect to get hate on an introduction to a game, but to each their own.

But, thank you for wishing me good luck on the game. I wish you the best Mr Hyped.

This is not really a demo, as there is absolutely nothing to do. It's just one long-winded exposition dump. Most of the CG is in black and white "newsreel style". Some pictures look passable, while others are very basic.

Can't say much about the story yet, the setting is intriguing though. But a good story isn't a big deal for porn games, may even be a con if it feels like the dev spent way more effort on the story than fap content.

Would help to release a version that has some content, and spend some time polishing up the UI, banners and such.

Review: Trash. Banner art is a good indicator of overall quality.

Huh, but then there is things like Higarashi, One Punch man, Undertale, etc. there is hundreds of examples of games that "look bad" but then turn into something iconic. If you get turned off instantly by a medium or whatever, thats on you. I personally think you miss out, you'll never find that one hidden gem. I'm not going to try to change your mind, because again, at the end of the day you do you. But I do want to at least suggest, if you have your own bias/dislikes, don't just bash/call out things. You don't have to go out of your way to be negative. It doesn't really do any good for anyone, and if I can be frank, by being negative so casually in your day-to-day life probably is having a bad effect on your personality overall. Trash to you is someone elses magnum opus. A lot of those projects are works of passion. Please consider these things in the future.

Thank you very much for this feedback! I really appreciate it.

I am currently working on bringing the GUI to life, bit by bit. As you noticed I am following a fallout vibe to it, by looking at the textbox. So, everything is dynamic and constantly changing.

In terms of the fap content, don't worry. Every game has a build up to these moments with your companions but I will not say a lot to avoid spoiling. I will wait to see what folks think of chapter 1 before moving forward.

First of all, thanks for taking the time to play my demo!

In regards to your paragraph..well... they are meant to be in black and white, ''newsreel style''. This introduction/demo was specifically designed to inform the players of events that will give them the knowledge of what is going to happen in future chapters. That ''newsreel style'' you speak of is seen with the black and white images, as most of the events happened in the 50s and 60s.

Also, if you are more interested in going around a map and going to bed at a certain hour in the hopes to catch your stepmom changing bright and early, then by all means, there is plenty of games out there in sandbox style to do that, if that is what you are interested in.

It amazes me how you would come and talk trash on an introduction to a game. Either way, I wish you all the best. When you see ''The Castaways'' in the future pop up, do not click it.

Thank you again and have a nice day Mr. Durgul.

There are enough people who want and enjoy a good story in their adult VN. Not everyone is into a braindead fuckfest.

What is that about?
I stated that there is nothing to do in your demo, because let's face it: there is nothing to do except learn about the past events. I was not criticizing, merely stating facts. It would have been nice to actually advance the story as the MC for a little while for example.
And for the record, I loathe most sandbox-style games.

Wow. If you consider what I wrote about your game "trash talking" you seriously need to chill.
I understand how it is your work and you can feel sensitive about it, but throwing a fit every time someone expresses any opinion that you don't like is perhaps a bit extreme, don't you think?

Anyhoo, good luck with your game.
