Others - The Shimmering Horizon and Cursed Blacksmith [v0.82f] [Ason]

Was going to try it out for a few minutes and wait for it to be complete if I liked it but this game basically plays like a One Way Heroics game and IT'S JUST LIKE DARK SOULS so I couldn't help but play it for 3 hours straight.

Not having an infinite chest in the base is annoying and I'd have liked a companion system with the monster girls but it's still real good. Best of luck to the devs!

Best H Game with adventure RPG ever. but hardest as well, because there's lot of information that i dont get from start like forging system. the battle is simple like pokemon mystery dungeon, and i love that game. The boss battle was great, the mob is looking good and this all developement and its only demo. imagine when its fully developed, its going to be hell!. 5/5 gonna play again.

The thing i hate in this game is Erosion %s where you were cursed because the dev wants to. but its really good to limit people grinding their ass off in 1 floor.

and Weigh system that nerfed forging system in the game, i mean higher mass & tendancity material = bigger weapon = higher damage and durability, and with weigh system it nerfed our power to create a destruction weapon.

gotta say i really loved this game and all the soundtrack in it is just amazing
while playing it..
it really pissed me off when i lose and have to start over again with the crafting system to be able to survive more its just remind me pretty much of dark souls 3 but as a H game lol
cute girls and nice H scanes.. all of them are animated so it gives the game perfect point

Actually a fun game on top of having animated sex scenes and an interesting start to a story. Hopefully this game keeps going because the potential here is insane even outside of the sex. This is an RPGM game that actually does more than the standard boring turn based combat you've seen in 3 million others. 5/5

Edit: It has been three entire fucking years and this is one of the only games I still think about playing to this day. This game fuckin rocks dude.

This game has actual gameplay and RPG mechanics that arent obnoxious and slow, i like it

The animation is fantastic, the art is fantastic, there seems to be good setup for a story, and i like the crafting of unknown items. Really hope to see this one go far, there's lots of potential here

get that this is a demo but the ending is mad troll
you get to the last stage which is essentially a forest stage
only one new enemy the maid
and once you finish all of the stages on the associated terrain you are booted all the way back to the first map where you're pretty much inevitably gonna die
like if you managed to make it that far your erosion is going to at least be near 90 if not 90 unless you were mad lucky and the next lvl portal spawned right beside give or take 7/10 times
so you lose most* accumulated points
when the pricing system for soul imprint is already toxic as is
-idk maybe make a hardcore game mode b/c i swear that shits for masochists
that aside
where are the accessories
and item consistencies
i used iron + iron + magic iron to get dark bastard sword with 33 durability
i get it magic iron is randomized magic damage so having it create an archetype specific weapon is silly
but when i get a scorched blade or the rapier counterpart i get 25 durability or less than that
but the mass stays the same :^)
[EDIT] i went off track but i intended to mention the fact i got a water schimitar(?) off of fire stones and ores
i then got the fire rapier off of dark stones and ores
small piece of ore is probably the most efficient and i dont get why
1 mass for 2 damage
iron is 3 mass for 5 damage falls off a bit short
and scrap metal? 2 mass for 1 damage
this ties into the last stage
but if sex scenes arent recorded (i dunno you cant interact with the book memories dont really show much even when you beat the damned demo)
if you have 100% erosion screen blacks out in the middle of it
the check points should have a save not this auto save bs
simply b/c you can yolo and see some scenes especially if you'd otherwise have gone back to home base and cashed in points
im grumbling b/c theres just no way im replaying it to get beaten up by a maid
as f0ken stupid as that shit sounds, i was actually wondering what the scenes were like but also didnt want to get my progress jacked
b/c when you're by the last stage you're pretty much gonna default have 70% erosion
players know this well but a sex scene just means yer ass is going straight back to bed with a very small fraction of your souls to make use of

its well made, i didnt see the dragon girls stuff same with the maid
[EDIT] just did and maid best girl jus saiyan
sword maiden scenes were meh felt like a downgrade from first floor mobs (even as a man of culture who can appreciate the finer things like monster girls a lil bit of domination, intercrural jazz)
3 stars
hard to appreciate the porn part of the game
but ik this can only go upwards from here

since having posted this review
ive played Ason's other game and mastered this one
getting through is much easier, but what it takes to get there i dunno man

This game is just great, Dark Souls like setting and system with a nice story so far and really enjoyable gameplay,

H scenes are great, but most of them require you to put yourself at a great disadvantage as it raises your Erosion greatly. Other than that i have no complains and i will definetly play this one just for the great gameplay.

This Game is Fucking Amazing. The Art and the animation is beautiful and I always love the games with reverse rape. The Ui design reminds me of an old game that was abandoned call Dungeons and Prisoners. The Voicing for each animation makes it all the more sensual. There's also a very cool dark souls theme to it with a forging and souls and weight system including weapon enhancing items. I can't wait for the game to be fully complete.

Overall I have to say this is a ton of fun as a game. The H scenes are nice, but most of the enemy ones are genuinely hard to do since it requires going to 0 hp before your erosion is 100% (you get back up if you go down before your erosion is that high) since it'll play the scene for less than a second before fading to black as you die. I've been playing probably around an hour and have yet to see one of those scenes properly. There are a few scenes with your 'guide' though.

The reason I'm giving this game such a high rating is that it's just genuinely fun. The roguelike aspect isn't particularly frustrating once you figure out how to craft either. It needs a lot of work on stuff like inventory storage since there's a weight limit, but overall I think this could be one of the most fun games on the site.
