Turning the Page [v0.16.0]
It's a book with some pictures. But not always. Sometimes there's also a black screen with text describing something that could have been shown if this project had a competent illustrator and cared about the visual side of things in this Visual Novel.
It's an orgy of "tell, don't show" and lines upon lines of dialogue. And then some more dialogue. And then some narration and then maybe some dialogue. Any project that does storytelling this way using a VISUAL novel engine is pretty much always awful, and this one is no exception. I just can't abide by such a complete misuse of the medium. This project sits somewhere around 1/16 of the way between a book and a comic in its use of visuals to tell a story.
The only parts of this VN where there's something actually happening being shown on screen is during sex. I guess that salvages it somewhat, but when everything in-between is the same static sprite characters just standing there talking it gets so incredibly boring.
That this project is called "turning the page" should have been a clue.
This title really deserves the "text based" tag.
Oh, and when they actually get to bang it out, it's a flood of condom sex. Yuck! At least invent some reason to raw dog it for the love of God.
If you don't care much for the "visual" in your VN's then I guess go ahead and try it. Otherwise, steer clear.
