Unreal Engine - Wild Life [Patreon Build 2024.04.19] [Adeptus Steve]

Basically a glorified scene-viewer at the moment, but a very good one at that. A lot of well-done animations, an easy-to-use camera and a decent amount of customization. When this game actually starts to have a story, it will probably have the potential to be one of the best games on this site. Not to mention that the number of animations available will be absolutely stunning if it continues at the current rate (about 35 individual animations per update).

Amount of updates for animation scenes certainly is not enough. Development is not transparent or adequate : they are creating lots of different levels and then just leaping to the new ones. Characters are not unique or special now. It's just remodelling old ones. UE4 and UE5 has different tricks for game optimisation and levels for a better and smooth work. But they're still trying to make a better game + regular updates.

The main game isn't the current selling point, it's the sandbox. They spent a long time preparing for the main story while working mostly on the sandbox, and it shows. Currently the sandbox has near limitless customization and an enormous amount of handcrafted sex animations, characters and clothing.

Since the beginning of 2023 they have shifted their focus to really work on the story, and it has really picked up speed. They release a public changelog on the patreon every friday where they detail all work they've done in each of the game's different areas. And if that isn't enough they are very active and super transparent on their discord. I couldn't give the devs a higher praise than the ones working on Wild Life.
If you're here for a good game, put in on your watchlist and wait some time. If you like being creative or just want to watch some excellent porn, now is a good time as any to jump in.

The actual game part is almost not there yet. However, the sandbox sex portion is well done and has good character customization. The amount of different sex positions is massive although between each character there are some overlaping animations.

This isn't really a game, more of the framework of what's going to be a game... and still I'm giving it 5 stars.

These scenes are as insane as they are sexy. Stuff I never knew I wanted to see are in this game and stuff I've only thought about but never even heard of are here. They manage to make these characters with no story or anything to them yet SCREAM sexiness with their expressions, with little nuzzles and licks and even 'love bites.'

Crazy indulgent I'm looking forward to see implemented in an actual game in the future. I really hope this avoids that sexy farming game, Dark Nephilim or whatever, that ended up being a bit boring when all was said and done.

This game stands out as a high-quality product within the adult gaming market. It almost reaches the level of AAA quality, offering a visually stunning experience. I highly recommend it for those seeking an aesthetically pleasing and engaging adult game.

EDIT:
I had to rewrite this review as of april 2024 as many changes have happen since:

Now i see the story is being worked and at a good paced (even while they continue to put out their regular bug fixes and new animations. Even faster than most games here on F95 so this is EVEN BETTER). I'm giving this 5 stars simply because of the sex mini game animation combined with the amount of animation (especially in the sex mini games) combined with the graphics. The story is a bonus at this point and it's coming along. Once you have a good computer and understand how to use lighting and depth of field to create that truly cinematic look, it takes this game to a whole different level and makes this the best in the business.

Personally i run the reshade app to get a custom DOF, film grain and a letterbox border. I run wildlife on 4k on almost all highest possible graphic settings at about 30-40 fps and it looks like an animated move you would go to the theatres to watch (minus the porn aspect lol)

Devs, in the future if you think the "game" part of this is not going to happen, then focus on making this the best animation viewer with the sex MINI GAMES, sandbox editor, the ability to make custom animations, and also optimizing the game so others can get into it.

5/5

some of the best animations i had ever seen- Three years ago...
in 2023 tech and engines are slowly evolving, and Wild life has been in a mess of development for what feels like YEARS, with little to no Chunk of decent progress being made to have it resemble an actual game.

i played this over 3 years ago, and played it recently. the optimisation is horrendously bad, so is the bugs. the progress has come a SMIDGE since a few years back, but its still esentially a pose simulator, meaning heres characters, spawn em in, test the animations. sure you have a proof of demo concept of the narrative theyre writing, but the progress is so horribly slow, that the tech is gonna evolve before the content of this game does. which means theyre gonna switch engines, and start again.

development is all over the place. it is. this has been in development for the longest of time, and yet the content and features really havent reflected that, nor has the optimisation itself either. i run on an i5 8600k 32gb ddr4 ram and an rtx 4060, so theres no excuse. this game does however succeed on having you take over whomever, and explore a vast amounts of taboo kinks with lion dudes, cow ladies, goat dudes. and even some m/m (which is lacking btw, all characters should be able to interact during scenes)...

it seems like theyre focusing on the very minimum and short term rather than actually making this a game. if you want a quick fap and got a decent pc, this could be for you. but if youre expecting an actual GAME, its not. its an animation viewer with a cast of characters, and an empty map to explore. and on the side a proof concept demo featuring very dull and basic dialogue quests.

this could be great, it could. but the dev team are all over the place and clearly have no idea how to pull this into being an actual functioning game. the time is been, and the content available. thats why its two stars. optimisation this bad, this far into DEVELOPMENT.... NO EXCUSES. laziness.

carnal instinct does what this tries to do SO MUCH BETTER. better optimised too, and resembles games like conan exiles type gameplay. development is long winded, but theyre still communicative with their players. go to carnal instinct. this is likely to be left in the state its in for how long its been in development for

With almost an AAA budget and nearing the 5 year development mark, you'd expect more more than an animation viewer. At least the animations are good, because everything else is extremely lacking, with no real care in development as bugs from 2 years ago have still not been fixed.

If you wonder how to describe Wild Life well my friend its the Star citizen of Adult Games. Big promises, Insane Future Visions, Very Interesting and promising looks and Gameplay but... then you realise those are just render trailers or promises made and you actually download the game just to find a unfinished game in very long development that at the current state is very far from what it is promised to be. So ill give this a VERY carefull and Hopeful 4 Stars. I watched this game for a long time but its not going anywhere for now come back in 3 years maybe they then have moved on from the show room and 1 mission gameplay and actually managed to create a superb Eroge game like promised.. well or you will see a Abandonded tag. Lets hope for the best

1st of, I'm sorry to say this...
in this new version, with the same settings those gave me minimum 40 fps in the UE4 version with almost top quality visuals, I don't even get to move with a kind of Tomb Raider 2 (the original) graphics, in a pretty empty environment nontheless...

in one word: unplayable

cant save.
worste optimization.
2 hr gameplay no one sex scene.
bigest emty map i see. but 1 star for good look amination in sandbox.
without save\ load its unplayble.
followed character stuck in rocks

I don't know the point of writing a review when we already have these many, but ohwell.
I applaud the effort and consistency of the team making this game, but at the end of the day it's just, boring. Sound design is great, but the girls all have bodies that are pretty much the same. Also the furry only stuff is just eye rolling. Some how it still manages to hold a very vanilla feel. Also noodle dicks, this is not the next step up in 3d sex animations. Guys have noodle dicks that just curve however.

I keep coming back to give the animations a look for like an hour to see if anything's above board and it's not. I think monster massage actually handles it's animations better come to think of it.

The game has been in development for a long time. I saw her for the first time in 2017. A lot of progress has been made during this time.
This is a great game that is definitely worth paying attention to. One of the best 3d games of the genre.

Positive:

• A huge number of high-quality sex animations with the possibility of a little interactivity in them.

• A large number of different characters with excellent detail.

• Perfectly crafted furry characters. They are not all gay as is usually accepted. Female individuals that is.

• Powerful level and character editor. You can create scenes from ready-made objects or build something of your own. The character editor includes the ability to change skin texture, color, makeup, hairstyles and clothes.

• A big open and beautiful world without loading between its parts. Now (10/08/2023) it doesn't look like it should.

• Very good graphics and details of objects and the world. Thanks to Unreal Engine 5.

Disadvantages:

• Poor optimization.

• There are only 2 playable characters in the story mode (Max and Maya).

• It is unclear what kind of gameplay the developers offer. Is this a wild world survival game or a romantic adventure?

very well made game! chatted with one of the developers thru their discord and they were very kind, gave many inputs for their future updates. Would defintely buy this game when it comes out or if its free here I will support thru patreon. Much love to this game hope to see it to its fullest

Very good game, defiantly something to look up to when making your own game. Great and plentiful animations. Good graphics, the only thing is the gameplay is a bit clunky. but that does not matter much since no one plays 18+ games for the gameplay.

This is a review for the U4 version of this game


This is NOT a game, this is a scene poser akin to Honey Select or other illusion titles, wild life trades the customization and freedom in creating your character from an illusion game for the BEST animations and giggle physics in a porn game period, you won't find anything better out there, this is it, this is the peak of Animated porn, you will only get better content by learning blender and making your own Porn.

the "game" features monsters both female and male, a tentacle monster and Futanaris, and of course the classic male and female all of them can engage in sex with each other with multiple animations including group sex, you can move the camera, change the pacing, use a First person perspective, use slow motion, change between vaginal and anal and some specific animations have variants, you can change the skin texture, hair, muscle level, boobs, butt, thighs and balls (why?) and some other small things like makeup, eye and skin color, creatures ALSO have customization you can change the fur of all the animals and some other features, combining all of this gives you Thousands of options to fullfill whatever needs you may have at the time, you will not find anything better for this type of thing, but I must reinstate this is NOT a videogame, gameplay, storie, features, combat and whatever else devs promise in their patreon are marginal at best, while this may anger a lot of people hence the rating of this game i personally got what i was looking for.

The biggest complain in this game is that you can't have a character with flat chest

Wild Life - A Creative Playground That Divides Players

Wild Life is a challenging game to review due to its niche appeal and unique development goals. The player community is often divided, with some loving the game and others left disappointed. To help you understand what you're in for, here's a breakdown of the game's pluses and minuses.

Positives:

1. Creative freedom: Wild Life offers a robust editor filled with assets and tools, allowing you to unleash your creativity and build whatever you want.
2. Unique sandbox experience: This game provides a different kind of sandbox mode, where you have the freedom to create your own story and gameplay instead of relying on a pre-built experience.
3. Potential for growth: As you explore and experiment, you might be amazed by the possibilities and learn to love Wild Life for what it is.

Negatives:

1. Lack of guidance: New players might be confused by the empty map, expecting a more traditional sandbox game with a storyline and gameplay to guide them.
2. High system requirements: The game demands a powerful system with a strong single-core processor, a modern graphics card compatible with Unreal Engine 5, and enough VRAM.
3. Bugs and issues: You might run into game-breaking bugs that could hamper your experience.
4. Limited character customization: Don't expect an extensive library of clothes and appearance options like you can find in Illusion games, for example.

In conclusion, your enjoyment of Wild Life will largely depend on your expectations and willingness to embrace your creative side, as well as how well you can run the game on your computer (if at all). If you're looking for a typical gaming experience with gameplay, story, and sex, you might be disappointed. However, if you dive into its sandbox and explore the creative possibilities, you may find yourself loving the game despite its shortcomings.

Taking all these factors into account I decided that I can't rate Wild Life as 5 star Excellent but instead a 4 star Good is fair. It may not be perfect, but it's an intriguing and unique experience that has the potential to captivate those willing to give it a chance. Also, don't forget that the game is a work in progress in constant development. The developers are engaging with the community via their discord server and eventually there will be a story with gameplay.

The game is undergoing some serious changes, it seems. The gameplay part of it is now pretty much empty. There's a new map, which is completely empty, whereas before there was a village with a short quest.
The adult part, on the other hand, is slowly improving - more poses, animations and stuff. I still think this is one of the best porn games because personally, I don't need a rich story with crazy quests and deep lore. I have many other games that are made to enjoy the story. Here, I wank and go about my business.

Wow i expected something more than just an empty world after 6 years of development...
Let me start by saying that i tried the game back in 2019 and its still in the same fken stage just in another place.(New map)
There are alot of sex scenes and nice looking models but that's just it. Apparently there is some hook mechanics and combat system in the works but its just for show atm.
No story no mechanics no voices no nothing.
Comparing this to Skyblivion for example makes this "game" look like a joke. Skyblivion is a fan made remake that started a year earlier than this and its gonna release in 2025. This "game" on the other hand is in an indefinite development apparently. Just by looking the "what's new" you can see the devs focus more on the sex animations and CLOTHES rather than mechanics,story or even fken simple buildings. The only mechanic that is good is the flying one but im not sure if the devs made it or if was in the UE store and they just used it.
Honestly dont even try it. There's literally nothing to see other than the sex scenes. If u wanna see sex scenes you'd be better of installing Skyrim and some sex mods.
My last thought is that the devs are afraid of upsetting the patreons by stop doing their request (which are obviously more sex scenes and outfit requests) and cant focus on the baseline game, either that or they're pulling a Star Citizen.
