(Review of game version on June 21st, 2023)
It's an "okay" game, but I don't recommend it purely because there is little depth in gameplay compared to the price of the game listed. It's as simple, tedious, and as repetitive as it gets.
I'm not rating this with "first attempt at a hentai game" into mind, as some devs (both EN and JP) put out amazing things on their first product and some don't.
The pixel art is gorgeous and the environments are pretty detailed. Some monster sprites were reused, but that's fine. Very simplistic in terms of it's gameplay, being standard movement and an simple slash attack/dash button, and that makes it easy for people to understand but that's pretty much as "interesting" as anything gets in this game besides the obvious AI-generated hentai.
I really feel like there could've been more with the game in general that wouldn't stray too far from just being "basic". Some points are:
- Interactions with NPCs can be expanded than just having them be static NPC merchants to drop gold onto (quests, "special encounters" if that fits into this game)
- Spamming attack and dash in combat without much variety in between is very one-note and repetitive, I would've hoped there would be some skills or some different weapons to use to make it interesting
- Enemies don't have more than 1 attack/gimmick except the boss, which is fine but I would've hoped for the enemies themselves to be more interesting and varied
- THERE IS NO GALLERY/RECOLLECTION FEATURE. How am I supposed to yank it after I finish the game?
I personally don't mind if AI art is used as a way to speed up the game development process or make up for areas developers lack (art in this case), but at least make the game interesting beyond the first hour of play.
Overall, everything just blends together to create a game that looks cool and simple but falls off very quickly and becomes very tedious and repetitive.
