HTML - X-Change™ Life [v0.20.7] [Aphrodite]

This review is for v0.16b

This game is fantastically enjoyable with only a few exceptions.
It is literally so good that I have repeatedly come back to it and will likely stay invested throughout its development, so I pretty much only have constructive notes that I think would make it better in my eyes:

1. The character customization needs to be greatly expanded upon considering it's a game about being able to completely change genders. This is obviously an issue as far as using IRL porn goes, but it would be a welcome change nonetheless.

2. The sex mechanics need to be improved upon, primarily in how long it takes to get through with the best results as well as the percentage odds using the automatic system. Currently they are either pass or fail, but I feel it should be pass, excel, sub-par, fail to give it a more reasonable application since I can always pass with the best results if I do it manually, but I don't want to spend 2 minutes on every sexual action for the best results (although I might be doing it wrong because that might just apply to the climax)

3. Starting gender should be adjustable. Specifically I mean that you should be able to start the game as female and transform into a male with the transformation becoming permanent if you do something like knock up a woman since the mtf becomes permanent if you get knocked up.

4. incest...there needs to be more of it and less of the "step" in between. Just saying, there's no need to be so vanilla aside to hide from the patreon popo.
Full blown relationships and polyamory and the works, with no limits as to who (or what) you can get into.

Probably one of the best games I've found on here so far, and quite possibly an all-time favorite in the transformation genre. Genuinely fun to play, excellent art style and a noticable level of attention to detail and overall polish. Very excited to see what future updates add to this game.

Good replay-ability. Nice Artworks and good writing!
The Game is in its infant stages, but will hopefully mature well.
Recent updates seem to indicate such development with decent content upgrades.
Will definitely keep my eye on this game.

Surprisingly, I love this game.

Multiple character designs to choose from for our MC, with some really steamy sex scenes. And best of all, it doesn't feel like the transformation stuff is forced on you. It's your choice, as the player, and I respect that.

I did hate the minigames, so shoutout to the Dev for adding an option to bypass them.

And I hope that in the near future a purpose for collecting phone numbers at the bar is added.

Not a ton of content thus far, but enough to bust a nut or two.

4* with 5* potential.

Edit: Because the Dev has shown to be so open to suggestions and/or criticisms and is constantly working on content updates, I'm boosting to 5 stars.

I'm not into even into gender bending but I had to try it because the screenshots were great. Turns out that even if you ignore that side of the game, picking up girls at the bar is incredibly hot. I probably wouldn't have even downloaded this if I realized it was so minigame-heavy but the aesthetic is so hot and the games and images/videos are so well done that I've really enjoyed it.

Only cons are that I had to cheat because making money without using pills is too grindy and one of the minigames is unplayable on firefox.

I also really didn't like being forced to transform and getting brainwashed just because I put off doing chores for one day. That's the only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars.

Great Game!

While gender-swapping is nothing new, this game implements this plot point flawlessly with its mechanics to keep it fresh and to make it stand-out among its peers.
The girl choices were excellent for the MC, and the addition of the filter to the image and videos were an excellent stylistic choice, it adds flair to the game, giving it an individuality when it comes to the art and helps it to stand out.
I don´t usually like to play HTML games, ut this one kept me hooked on for hours. I highly recomend it.
Can´t wait what comes next for this.
Keep up the good work, Dev. This is a gem in the making.

Wonderful!
One of the coolest concepts and really looking forward to this one growing
Keep up the amazing work on this one
Good luck on project scope as i can see this one spiraling out of control (holy moly using AI to construct images! - you have my full support for your work on this one!)

Firstly, if you're not into Male to Female transformation games you're not going to get a ton out of this game.

However. This is the greatest MtF transformation I've ever played, and that's saying a lot because I play a lot of them.

A lot of transformation games struggle simply with structure. We know that you will start as a man and then become a woman. But beyond that.. it's hard to chart out a game. What do you do after the change? How do you highlight the POV change from a man to a woman?

This game's first brilliance is the premise. It is a world with a simple twist.. there are pills that make you female for a determined amount of time. This is brilliant because it allows for the narrative to switch between male and female (as you please), which is the whole erotic part of the genre.

The world is well written to incorporate these pills.. your very job is to sell these pills. That allows a sense of immersion that is rarely seen in this kind of game.. after all, becoming a woman is not exactly feasible in the real world.

The minigames are polarizing, but I would say they're well done considering what they are, and moreover they're necessary. Without it, scenes would transition too quickly from one to the next and ruin the effort-reward balance. But to each their own.

The game uses real porn for the NSFW content but this is one of the better selection of porn as far as real porn games go.. you will not be disappointed on this front and I can tell the scenes have been painstakingly scripted to align with what's going on. Props. Also, the best implementation of choosing 'clothes' to align with the pictures of the real porn stars.

The best part is that this story and game structure could easily allow for more detailed subplots and games to be dropped within its structure. This is the game to watch out for, in this genre.

This game is extremely promising. Best use of real porn I've seen and I love the theme. Can't wait for more updates! The game also does a fantastic job of being an actual adult game where it doesn't take 6 hours to get to the adult content.

I'd love to see some aspects of newlife implemented here like having relationships with characters etc.

Also, could implement more mini games for variety.

I'd also like to see an option to remove the chance button and have minigames only.

there ll be no "pro" and "cons", cuz game have serious tehnical problems.
3rd gameday, save is 200kb, its big for that game, but ok
30th gameday, save is 1Mb+, its abnormal
such save size progression here cuz in save stored EVERY ****n day!
u may ask- where is problem? there is a huge problem, cuz all modern browsers have only 10 Mb sized "local storage"... so, tehniacaly u ll unable to save in all 3 slots after 90 gamedays (its mean- u have no data from other games in "local storage")
ohh, almost forget- game have some massive script lags, enjoin it...
2dev: plz spend some time to leatn some twine...

First and foremost let me say that my rating of four stars does not reflect how I feel about the game completely. I love this game and look forward to seeing how it develops, I just feel like there needs to be more of a story for it to be truly, truly excellent and along with the story it needs more things at work and at home as both a guy and a girl.

There needs to be more interaction stuff at work and at home; you should be able to interact with characters at work other than just doing work, whether it is being able to hit on female co-workers as a guy or get hit on as a girl. The same thing for home! You should be able to do stuff with your step-sister other than just the shower stuff, talking with her when you clean, or the mall and car interactions. The stuff with your stepfather is hinted at but should be implemented soon.

I also hope that sooner or later some kind of lesbian content will be implemented as well.

One thing I did find annoying though was that no matter how many times your stepsister begs you for cash or to buy her coffee, the shoplifting thing didn't trigger that often -- like maybe twice in one hundred and fifty days of playing.

That being said if these things are implemented, sooner or later, this game will definitely be five stars imo.

In its current state, this is a game with five to ten hours of fun and great potential in the future. The scenes are nicely picked, the minigames with porn playing in the background are a tense way of making you edge, and most situations you get put into are fun and believable! To address the previous review, the blackjack has just been removed from the game, haha.
Also, this game made me lose masculinity points IRL

im having a hard time finding bad things to say about the game. its completely different from everything in the genre, with cool mechanics and systems, a impossibly large scope with thousands of possibilities to develop and the game pace and writing allows you to go through it without noticing. i do hate some of the minigames though, and would love a more reliable way to avoid them instead of the terrible odds or playing blackjack which is terribly painful and long. apart from that, its beautiful and very well crafted.

Why play this game? Mechanics-driven game with quality scenes and an extremely consistent art style. Forward thinking developer gives this game a bright future

Keep a close eye on this game. It does not play like other HTML games. This game is highly replayable with a large cast of MC's to choose from. Don't feel like restarting? Just take a pill to play another MC's content

• Sex scenes are overlayed with minigames
• Healthy amount of male and female content
• RPG stats are integrated into every aspect of the game

A game with a lot of potential. Right now the game is more of a work sim, with some high quality sex scenes if you ask me. Which isn't a bad thing. The work part is actually really fun and enjoyable, and the sex scenes are great. I just wish there was more.
The only real gripe I have right now is, the game is obviously set up to go back and forth between being a man and a female, so why is there a pill you can buy that turns you into a female for 30 days? From a story perspective it makes sense, but from a game play perspective it just locks you out of content and doesn't provide anything for it. Take this complaint with a grain of salt, I'm sure that it's just the first step and is just there to make initializing future content easier, but there should be a warning or something right now that all it does is lock you out of content.
Other than that since complaint, it's a really well designed game, and I can't wait for future updates!

Played this game a while ago and I have to say this is really unique for the usual TF-based game you'll find here.
The game is really good and fun. The game has good content, yes, but the thing for me is that the gameplay loop is fun.
Defenitely worth a try if you're into the stuff that goes into it.

Alright core, but some issues.

Doesn't have much sense of progression at the moment. It's all random encounters as a woman as far as I can tell.

And way too many fucking mini-games. Needs an option to turn them off.

I find this a bit difficult to review.

Its looks great is well written and has interesting game mechanics

BUT those game mechanics get really repetitive and get in the way of it being an actual FAP game.

I like the idea but the mechanics are easy to master and it just becomes a chore to have to remember what each client or girl wants. I got two weeks in and then couldn't face doing another job,

Great game!

I hope the content keeps growing., and it follows the same direction. At the moment there is not much, or maybe I haven't found it yet, but looks very good.

As a not so negative aspect, the half drawn/half real porn is weird. I prefer the real stuff. But this is still great.

Also, I just discovered the losing at black jack part: awesome! can't wait to find new conent on that path.

Thanks for this!

Wow, I really enjoyed this one. Much more built out than I was expecting at only 0.14. Interactive and pretty creative in its approach. Great choices for real porn but also dev adding their own twist and style to the art. There's something addictive, for me at least, in the sex scenes and little minigames. The concept of transformation in this game really isn't a huge turnoff for me even though i'm usually not a fan of the genre - the world that has been built in this game centered around transformation is actually done pretty well.

It's left me really wanting more and I'm super interested to see what branches the dev will add. There's been so much attention to detail up to this point which is really helping the game flow. I mean down to each custom character you have in the beginning and presenting an array of outfits to buy that the actress actually is posing in, or the race of your character affecting most of the sex scenes, we love a game that strives for thoroughness.

A few points for improvement:
- Work life (in sales) is too complex at first - I actually kinda liked it once I got used to it but you deadass have to treat it like you're actually memorizing info as if it's a real job, which obviously a lot of people won't like and it is kind of hard to figure out what's going on at first. The depth is appreciated and helps build interesting scenarios but it can definitely be revamped. That said I really like the whole premise.

- As far as I can tell, your starting stats can't be permanently improved, only permanently deducted.

- some random events should have their probabilities increased

- a back button needed - not sure if by design but honestly people just want to play for the scenes
