This game makes me feel torn. Like it has potential, but it undermines itself every step of the way.
Let's break down the more objective aspects of the game before I get into my opinions.
Renders: Actually pretty solid overall. There is some weirdness (the hands look weird in several renders) you run into but nothing that made me go "WTF" or brought me out of the experience.
Animations: There are animations... but they're so bad it'd actually be better if there weren't.
Plot/writing: Technically sound writing on a fairly cliche, basic plot line. Not inherently a bad thing, I actually prefer basic stories. When the writing is good it can carry a basic plot line a long way. This is just an objective observation. I'll get more into the positive and negative points of the story later as it's what drove me to make this review.
Models: This is honestly what drew me in, I'm a bit tired of the same-ol'-big-titty-same-face-same-models over and over. They're not little kids and they're not titty monsters. Just attractive women.
Alright with the things that can be relatively objectively evaluated out of the way, lets get into the more subjective.
The writing, while technically sound, is asinine. The dev seems to have confused random and extreme with humor. Yes, randomness can be funny if it's used appropriately and in small doses, but when that's all you have going for you, it loses appeal very quickly. The story consists of several mentally unstable characters doing insane things for no reason other than in an attempt to be funny for the reader. For instance, half the dialogue in the game is absurd dialogue between a mentally ill person and her teddy bear. If this approach had been taken much more lightly and sprinkled on top of good dialogue it would have added a lot of hilarity. However, the games writing is propped up almost entirely by poor shock value and juvenile 4chan-esque humor.
Normally I would have just moved on from this and not looked back but I'm just so disappointed because despite me not liking the writing, it was technically written really well. It's such a juxtaposition. The writing has a lot of potential if they just reel it in a bit and grow their characters instead of leaning on shallow personality traits. This game is polarizing because of the writing, but it didn't need to be. It could have used the same kind of humor and been much more well received if it just toned it down a bit.
Overall I'm giving this a 1/5 when it could have easily been a 4/5. There's simply no saving those animations lol.
