    An alright game. I had to install a patch from searching in the thread to fix a graphical glitch in the main menu, but after that I didn't have any game-breaking issues, and it was fun to play.

    The gameplay is fun, but badly unbalanced (enjoyable to break). The music is good, but often is cut off by bad loops. The environments are interesting, but poorly laid out and confusing. Enemies are fun to fight, but the controls are janky and weird.

    If it hadn't been what I'd been in the mood for, this game would probably strike me as 2-3 stars - but it was what I was in the mood for, so I'm bumping it up to four. If you decide to give it a try, three things that may be helpful to know going in:
    • You can double-jump (and kinda triple-jump, sorta? The controls are janky).
    • There are no checkpoints; saves happen only at designated areas. You'll know them when you find them, and they're reasonably often - but the first one is *way* further along than you'd expect.
    • Enemies molest Delta when she gets to low health, which is fun; but if her health reaches zero that's a permanent game-over. So make sure you keep her health topped up unless you've just recently saved.
    • Enemies (including bosses) respawn when you load saves, and after some (but not all) zone transitions.
    • The English translation is almost entirely incoherent. You'll get a general sense of the story, but it's no exaggeration to say that some of the dialogue and writing is absolutely incomprehensible.
    • The ending makes sense for what's happening in the story, but is mechanistically very sudden; no credits, no outro, just... Advance to next step in a scripted conversation, and bam! Main menu. That's it.
    • The gallery can be accessed from the main menu.
    Overall, glad I had a look, but if you skip this one you're not missing out.

    Apparently the game had many issues before, I'm not sure if the fixes worked or if I got lucky, but I personnally had no issues while playing the modern version + fixes.

    Anyways, this is an actually good action game, like, "I was excited to play it for the gameplay everytime I got back home" good, this is enough to get it's 4 stars, because those are pretty dang rare in here. Decided not to give 5 because the H content is very lackluster, there's barely any and it doesn't do anything mechanically, since the game is good I don't mind, but this is a review on an adult game site, so it's a worthy complaint for many hypothetical readers of this late af review

    Whelp. One more of those retarded games with an idiotic control scheme.

    Not a single key of my keyboard will make the game advance past the main title screen. I don't even get to the point where there is a menu.

    An Underrated Gem

    This game is a beautiful, systematically set-up experience with an easy-to-follow story. The controls are intuitive and not overly complicated, making it perfect for someone who wants to finish a game in 2-3 days or a week while staying engaged. The plot is carefully written, and the plot twists are indeed fun.
    The characters’ voices are SOOO cute, especially Rei’s. Overall, the game art, graphics, and gameplay experience are very satisfying.

    I would highly recommend this game to anyone who enjoys exploring and using their brain and common sense while playing an H-game. It’s easy yet engaging, perfect for those who love figuring things out on their own.

    Kudos to the developers! Great work!

    This is a platform game, but the double jump is broken (works 20% of the time), making it impossible to progress further in the game.

    Also:
    - controls cannot be remapped
    - there's no explanation whatsoever, so you have to discover how the game works by yourself (assigning weapons to weapon slots and so on)

    Pretty fun once I found the first checkpoint.

    Pros:
    • Pretty fun gameplay for an H-game. Sort of reminds of the old flash game platformer-shooters.
    • Great art and overall presentation.
    • The cheat mod makes the distant checkpoints easier to deal with.
    Cons:
    • Not many opportunities to save, in the beginning any way.
    • While the gameplay is entertaining... You'll probably need both hands or a creative rebinding of all the keys.
    • Lack of a map makes it easy to get lost
    • Translation is almost incomprehensible. Thankfully(?) the plot (so far) seems thin enough to sort of follow along.
    • Pretty buggy. Setting the game up was kind of a pain. The first boss hit me once and then stopped moving. Nothing game breaking so far, but may want to be sure you have any needed patches.
    Tips:
    • You'll probably find yourself wondering where the first save point is or where you need to go. Here's a quick rundown:

    this is very mediocre imo. the weapons and gameplay is fine if you are looking for a side-scroller/platformer/action game. but imo it's just boring. maybe because i played too many of these in the past.

    save is VERY limited. (checkpoint system, and some of them are a bit hidden, but definitely findable if you are exploring every path normally. so don't think "hidden" as in behind walls or such... although some are quite close to that)
    and H-scenes are only on defeat... enemies only do H-attakc if you get knocked down and that only happens at very low hp... your clothes destroy/repair according to your hp. so you nearly never get H-attacked unless you want to lose... and since the only way to see H-scenes is with losing and then save being very limited, this is an extremely boring combination for a H-game.

    honestly just for this terrible game design i cannot give more than 2. since H gameplay is a poor experience. despite animations being very nice... it's insane that the hardest part is done so well (animation, gameplay basics) yet this game falters at the very fundamentals... save game and H-scenes(H-attacks).

    it's a shame. this could have been a nice 4/5 game easily if not for the braindead game design.

    Platformer game where everything is trying to rape you, You get weapon pickups and other items, smooth animations in combat, disgusting monster rape scenes if the enemy knocks you down, disgusting monster rape scenes if you reach a game over, H-scenes are high quality animations, there are boss fights, 5/5.

    Very easily made it to my top 5 during the first minutes of gameplay. The animations are clean and smooth, the weapons are fun to use (although I mainly kited the enemies with the knife because I'm greedy about ammo). The story is decent for a hentai game, too. Issues are some really annoying bugs here and there and the level design feels kinda lackluster.

    This game is a joke. I've played the game for 1 hour straight and i have encountered 4 enemies only. Not only that, it has the same background music and stale atmosphere. Within one hour of gameplay, i have encountered zero boss. I've managed to reach the saved zone 'Laboratory-5' and that was painful. Not because the game is hard, because the game is uneventful. This side scroller is pack with enemies and they are always placed near a platform to fuk your jumps. There are ways to make a game hard and pleasant at the same time and The Shadow of Yidhra is not one of them. The only reason i give this 2* is because of the artwork and how beautiful it looks

    Competent core loop - animations and mechanics are solid.
    But this title is very much short on content and proper writing.
    The game ends abruptly with no real sense of closure or achievement, with close to 0 replay value.
    Would love to see continued development of this title though, and would be willing to buy a copy if the issues mentioned above are addressed.

    I dont usually rate games, but this game was very good. the story is not really clear but it's your usual Zombies has come kill them save the girl kind of setting. now I have tried alot of sidescrollers and this game was playable like it was very nice and smooth for a shooting game with rape elements when you fall down after taking too much damage. the levels are good with about 5 different areas. I FEEL THERE NEEDS TO BE MORE H-CONTENT, you have 2 animations for each enemy and thats it, has more potential in my opinion.

    First of all, thanks for posting this game, I love the game. Updating it too, with an uncensored version and cheats. Hahaha Noice

    It was awesome for me, enjoyed every second of it, because 1. It has guns, baby!!! I like shooting games and 2. Of course, it's an H game, that's why I'm here hahaha.

    For other reviews about how they don't like the game because of the characters, the story, gameplay, etc. Don't mind me I'm just enjoying the game that I can play on my potato laptop hahaha haha *sigh*

    Well. It's a hard one to rate.
    On one side this game is in a small percentage of games here that... are actual games.
    On the other hand this game is just "playable" and nothing else.

    Alright, easy-ish part: "the looks".
    This game looks fine. The character is decent. Kinda like her appearance. Which ain't so often actually. Different levels aren't really distinct but whatever.
    It's all actually rather nice but only if you compare it to the "mass of mess" which is rather unfair.

    The easiest part to rate is sex. It's awful. Just awful. Once again could've been worse, but it could've been so much, SO much better.

    Story. Even if it was nicely translated it's just such a filler. Though somehow i was quite interested in it, but it was interest to finish the game as fast as possible.
    Well, we play as a braindead character, everybody! What a surprise! But this time around she talks! Aaaand all she is saying is that she doesn't understand anything, brilliant.
    Basically it's a story about an evil CEO of a lab(with some god motifs that don't get developed whatsoever). Because of her everything goes to shit. And of course this CEO is our friend at first and then... oh my god betrayal happens, wow. Everything ends on one of the dumbest possible happy endings, frIEnDsHIp, HApPiNesS, GUT.

    Well, game.
    This game took like 5 hours to beat. An hour would already be maximum smth like this can be fun, but it was 5 hours.
    That wasn't difficult at all. It was just repetitive AS FUCK.
    I can go on a 1000 character rant about why every single aspect of gameplay is bad but i won't.
    Just don't play it.
    Even porn isn't worth it. If you unlock it with gallery unlocker, it is still bad. It's just isn't worthy to be on anybody's hard drive.

    In general it is a very good game, it has a lot of play time and it is entertaining, although it is not perfectly translated into English, it is already better than many other games. The strong point to highlight is probably the graphics, very good animations, images, very good H-scenes, in general I would recommend playing it.

    Even so, they should improve some things on the technical side, there are some bugs in the zombies when moving and in a part of the game it has been bugged.

    To add, although it had quite a number of scenes, they could have added secondary scenes with other girls, that would have given it more variety.

    I give this game an 8,3 out of 10.

    top tier 2d side scroller with good cgs and animations. playing this one is kind of a no brainer, high recommend. only thing not a fan of is translation, which seems missing in some parts, but besides that all round pretty solid.

    I feel like the dev are still stuck in the 90s where games are scarce or something. It's slow. It's difficult. The map is big, but not enough things to discover. It took as long as possible to finish the game. They just made this game like there aren't any other to compared with what they did.

    Another quintessential WhitePeach game. Which means it's a game with stunning art and animation quality, and yet the gameplay is barely there. Though I'd say this is the odd one out, as compared to their previous game, I'd say it's better in terms of gameplay and yet worse in terms of H quality.

    Gameplay is as described in the post. You explore levels, and run and shoot enemies that pose no threat whatsoever. Your character is way too agile while the enemies have nothing that could counter this. Should an enemy get too close, a simple dash away with i-frame will keep you from harm. So yeah, it's too easy. Which is bad considering you only get in-game H animations from being knocked down. Which only happens randomly when the MC's clothing state is at the lowest e.g. below 30% HP. All this makes completing the gallery needlessly frustrating. But it's a decent side scroller overall, and none too stressful for its difficulty.

    The game's font size is also not optimized for screens smaller than 1080p, so beware if you're planning on playing it on one such device. You're gonna be doing a lot of squinting.

    As for the H scene, again art is superb. Animation has the usual WhitePeach stiffness, but it's really not a bother. What has gotten worse was the sounds. Sound looping and quality for regular animation is somehow worse than their previous games. And for CG animations, some lines are not even voiced at all.

    I would recommend just grabbing a save (or the cheat tool) to just view all the scenes.

    Averege 2D-shooter. The art is good, gameplay is quite stale and can be confusing. A more fluid and more in depth than just "shoot the enemies" would elevate the game

    Nothing really special but worth a try if you are into monsters/zombies and a dystopian setting.

    wanted to give 4,5 stars but since I can't so I'll give it 5.
    story 2/5
    translation 3/5
    gameplay 5/5
    animation 5/5
    voice acting 4/5
    bug-free 2/5

    the girls are cute, their body proportions and facial expressions are well drawn. the shooting mechanic is awesome, the grenade not so much, kinda too easy, got too much money by the end, need more flying and range monster to make it more challenging (or just make different diff levels). Animation is great though need more voice acting variation and more voice from the enemies. Really wish I could interact with the girls in the background. Right click seems useless. Wish I can have more than 3 perks like an upgrade after leveling or something. Default vision rang is too small imo. An ultimate move would be awesome. AI kinda dumb. The save mechanic feels bad, should be flexible.
    Encountered a severe bug. I got stuck in the city after talking to the 2 fellas. just restarted my last checkpoint, tried getting out first and changed the language to jap before talking to them and it worked somehow (dunno what made it work tho).
