Dev isn't sure if it will have nudity/sexual content but the game already has the incest patch. :LOL:
This dev isn't sure about anything, even this incest patch is a mistake, it just changes the way he calls people, in other words he doesn't know if he wants incest or step-cest

Renders looks nice, what's the plan for sex scenes tho? Gonna be well-animated? Or only pictures?

Clearly you are completely unaware of Patreon's stance with incest. Ever wonder why so many games have that patch available? You should be facepalming at yourself instead blaming the dev for following the rules.

I know Patreon's rules well and I never want any developer to harm themselves by including official incest. The problem is that this patch he made available doesn't work correctly.

The fact that the dev himself/herself created the Incest patch kinda means they do plan to add sexual content because otherwise why on earth would you create one if you didn't plan on adding any..
Because romancing your relative doesn't imply to have sex with them?

And if he wanted to add sexual content after that, he wouldn't have to rewrite the dialogue.

If there wouldn't lewd scenes with relatives be planned, there wouldn't be any need for an incest tag or patch. :WeSmart:

As this developer hopes to get many supporters saying that the game may or may not have sexual content. This is a porn site and I want to believe that the majority of users are here for the sex scenes in the games.

With this thought I believe that this game will soon be abandoned due to lack of supporters unless the dev includes sex in the future

Waiting inside a car in a well lit road? Hell no, insane.

Run through the dark woods when your sister is telling you to stop it and stay put and try to find shelter inside an anbandoned manor? Logical
It's horror movie logic!

Group of "teens" : "Guys! The Psycho-killer is coming for us!"
That one blonde girl the rest of them are following for some stupid reason : "I know! Let's hide in the attic!"

Mia: "Obviously this is the safest place my dumbass brain could ever think"
Yeah, I love her entire story so much. When I saw her talking on the phone while driving at night in heavy rain, I thought that was an accident in the waiting and I wasn't disappointed. Then her every single thought and action was more and more cretinous. Great pastiche of people in horror films.

Nice looking characters but there are a couple of things that ruin it as far as I'm concerned.
1) Quicktime events... I hate these!
2) A redone UI that doesn't allow for skipping transitions and the ridiculous number of screen shakes.
Just got done with the first release, and I must say I'm liking it a lot.

One thing that I'd always welcome is addition of proper horror genre games, cause despite the "horror" tag existing for this site, game which really focuses on this aspect is quite rare.
As long as the future updates continue with the suspense and terror aspect, I see potential for it to be great.

As for the story, I'm finding myself engaged with it; I like how the mystery is slowly getting unveiled to the MC.

With the LIs, they each seem to have distinct enough interest to kepp me engaged (currently I'm most interested in Haze, but let's see how I feel with more episodes, heh).


So all in all, good job dev on your first release.
Will keep tabs on this one to see how things develop with future episodes.
Mia was such a dumbass that my canon is that her department deliberately sent her out to Spooky Island, hoping she'd get Sadako'd. Glad she's gone, hope she doesn't come back.

Haven't seen a single QTE so far that fits in a VN, and this one is no exception. They can be decent if used in an action game, since you're already used to twitch reflex inputs there. But when you're chilling with an interactive story like this and suddenly forced to go into ready mode, it's not a good player experience, and it's not good game design.

Renders are nice, UI is polished, plot setup feels interesting. Could've done without the typical (sorta but not really) incest characters, but I guess that's what the people want. Although they probably want real incest characters, so this middle of the road approach might not work for either crowd.

I think it's going to be tricky developing the game, considering a lot of effort seems to have been spent on the paranormal aspects of the story (which so far have been done well, imo - Mia's stupidity excluded). But making that work along with the more carnal aspects of an adult VN might be a juggling act. Anyway, interested to see how this goes, and good luck to the dev.
I was gonna leave the exact same thoughts on the game, thx for doing it for me.

Two things I'd like to add:

Desperately needs a proofreader.

Some times dialogue and/or renders play too fast, for example to conway the best friend quickly dropping a bit of info and then leaving. Its not a big deal, but some people, like me, need to read everything on the screen, wich in this case means rolling back and forth to catch everything. Slightly annoying, not a big deal, but also easy to fix.

Liked the setup of the story and am curios to see if dev can see it through.
Well...

This, this, this and this lol...no point in writing out all the above myself really.

___________

It's interesting for a first release sure, nicely put together but for the dev, if going have dumb people doing dumb things, I can watch any number of a thousand horror films over the last 40 years where everyone does this.

Also never understood why with such a creature on the 'island'...wtf would anyone live there (considering they are aware of it)...just fucking move...

That aside...worth following for now I think but all the above quotes stand, especially the QTE's. Too many devs want to make a game..not a VN. If I want QTE's etc I can go play far better ones...far more polished. Make a visual novel, leave out the pointless crap and maybe try and find a native English speaker to polish up the script for you.

Well, I certainly wouldn't call myself an expert on horror movies (or horror genre overall), but perhaps there will be an explanation in the story which addresses that?

Perhaps people tried to move and those people just......disappeared.
It's said in the book MC finds that on one of the encounters, Nighrest spared her victim initially, but then took him from his jailcell in the police station.
So if anyone gets away with moving, it would likely be only because Nighrest let them - and even so, she's a fickle demon who is very likely to still just kill the ones she spared anyway.

Many of the Island natives are aware of this, and those that believe in Nighrest are scared shitless to move (and given what they heard happen to others disappearing trying to move), don't wanna put their lives on the line to test it out, and would rather continue living on the island in fear.

Of course, there's one exception; MC who is an Island native, coming back home after some years.
But even MC's past is shrouded in mystery - both parents dead and his step-mom finding him as a child.
This could actually play into the factor as to why Nighrest may have spared him.


Of course, this is assuming the dev thought that far ahead I suppose.


One slight concern I may have which I didn't address in my initial post (even moreso than QTE, which I found annoying) is that given this is a horror game, will the dev have the guts to kill off at least some (if not majority) of LIs despite this being a AVN?

Personally, I think it would make more sense to the overall story that at least some LIs get killed (depending on the LI MC/player decides to save; i.e. choices with consequence).
All LIs surviving would suck out a bit of tension and I feel the game would suffer a bit.

But there are those who absolute hate LIs getting killed (regardless of the story/genre based reasons) and feel all LIs must survive till the end; and would complain.

So yeah, gonna be interesting to see which direction the dev takes.
