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-cestDev isn't sure if it will have nudity/sexual content but the game already has the incest patch.
Eh? Grandma's House is fucking amazing. What do you mean?anyone wanna guess how many updates we have to wait for some lewd content? 3, 5, 10 updates?
i get the feeling this is going to be another grandma house game
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.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
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.Clearly you are completely unaware of Patreon's stance with incest. Ever wonder why so many games have that patch available?

Because romancing your relative doesn't imply to have sex with them?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..
What? I'm sure it just reads : "No Soliciting. Please leave all packages at back door." in Pagan Cultist or something.View attachment 3247306
Yeah, irl I'm not even entertaining this idea.
If there wouldn't lewd scenes with relatives be planned, there wouldn't be any need for an incest tag or patch.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.
Waiting inside a car in a well lit road? Hell no, insane.Mia: "Obviously this is the safest place my dumbass brain could ever think"
It's horror movie logic!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
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.View attachment 3247998

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.
Well...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, 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?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...
