told u about slideshows

(+1)

lol I assume you told them that the slideshow thing won't go over well with most people? Truthfully, it has been done to death. It doesn't mean it is a bad thing, per say, just that it is so generic and overdone, like those Super Meatboy clones or sokoban games cluttering all gaming platforms. There is clearly a market, but it is very small and niche to say the least. The real issue they will face is the fact it is AI art on top of the slideshows. Newgrounds slideshow ones worked because it was hand-drawn art in flash, back when adult video games were very limited and rare. Now, we have a brood range of adult gaming genres, and a lot of methods of interactivity - as well as a lot of people despising AI art. Games like this, I personally don't mind the AI art as much, but that will not be the case for most. Things like full-on AVNs, however, I don't support it so much. Case in point, though, the slideshow AND the inclusion of AI art will make this a VERY small target audience for sure. 


But! Like the dev said, it is still in the early ages of development. Half of that could change by the final product. I personally gave up when it swapped to Scene 2 and I saw it was a slideshow, but I'm interested to see where the game goes and what changes will be made if it strays from that t all. Right now, it is just a lot of arguably annoying minigames and effort just for some slightly moving versions of art that is less realistic than what I could generate on perchance.org for free. It offers no motivation. But, again, "early stages". The game is essentially just in the 'rough sketch' phase, after all.

yeah i told the dev to add a feature that can change the game a lot, like rhythm matching by holding up/down

Okay, you've got me intrigued. Please explain this rhythm matching in detail. Rhythm as in the girl's motion, not music, I assume?

yep motion, like the fishing minigame in stardew valley, so that your touch on the screen is actually impactful

I like the idea.  Stardew's fishing has always been 'annoyingly frustrating early on' to 'with buffs this is easy and fun'. This game's system would work perfectly for it with the buffs and such already supporting the style.
