Dusk City

A pretty mediocre experience overall. Outright the story has an interesting hook and the world is neat conceptually, but you're not gonna get much of anything on that or expanding on those ideas. Things kinda just happen in this world with convenient excuses to hop from h scene to h scene, so if you wanted some substance sorry to disappoint. Characters are great design wise. Witch has the most h scene options and is probably the most likeable. There's a good variety of characters to find here and there if you look around with high quality animations and such. The problem is that the boring metroidvania, weak combat and awful bosses halt your progression with these scenes. Which takes up most of the game time. If you're familiar with the devs' previous title, Summer Memories, at least they didn't pretend to be more than they were and just had free roaming and easy access to the main appeal, which is the h scenes. It feels so tedious that you end up feeling more of a "Finally it's over" just to get to the h scenes. The gameplay is pretty easy and half-assed, but the bosses can have stupid mechanics and ways to beat them that are not always easily communicated. It's a slog getting through em'. It's more of a test of patience than skill in a lot of cases. Movement is really floaty and has next to no interesting puzzles to solve either. Upgrading is neat though. Honestly you're better off playing anything else or just getting someone's save with all the h scenes unlocked. Ain't worthwhile.

To start this game is completely and totally carried by its pixel art and atmosphere. Only because I enjoy the character designs and pixel h-scenes so much can I excuse all the annoying problems. First of all the CG scenes are mid in comparison to the pixel art, and some of them are just trash. The character designs are extremely good for almost everyone, but unfortunately a lot of the good ones didn't get any real scenes. The mechanics older sister only got three I think, and two were trash CGs. Which really sucks because she had my second favorite design. The controls and gameplay are god awful. And I cant play with one hand which ruins half the experience. It's not even hard just really really annoying. But I can excuse it since it's a H-game. Some parts of the map feel like they're missing pieces which is a little bothersome. And you have to recharge your balls for some reason so you can cum more istg. Overall it's top tier if you like pixel art and great H-scenes but mediocre otherwise. Thankfully after you beat the game you unlock any and all scenes you didn't find yet.

The game starts off in a bit of an awkward place, but as you progress through the areas you and get more movement tech things really start to open up pretty quickly. Gameplay is pretty simple, with a few secret areas requiring some creative thinking and one that requires an EXTREMELY precise jump. (You can stand on pretty much every enemy in this game, even ones that walk on walls, hint hint). Combat is pretty braindead. Most enemies and even bosses are not much of a threat. Money can be pretty easily farmed even from early on, and you can purchase tons of healing items from the city's various shops and vending machines to trivialize the bosses. Some bosses were more puzzle then challenge. The art is fantastic, the variety of H-Scenes is pretty great honestly. My only gripe is that the city is has a few areas that look to have been cut from the original concept. There are several rooms and structures that look like they SHOULD have content, but don't. (A restaurant, a laundry mat, several empty apartment buildings, etc.) I think it would have been great to see just a bit more content and maybe a bit more lore about the world. Overall, though, it's one of the better games in terms of art and atmosphere that I've seen on here.

5/5 I'm so sad this game ends rather fast, but i guess this was more of a side project than real game. From the start i thought i won't like it, early game feels rough, movement is janky, you have no idea whats going on and there is big city to explore. But it gets better and better. This is pretty much simple metroidvania game, with rather easy combat and focused on atmosphere and exploring. It's not for everyone and it feels like game is made with low budget with many things and mechanics to desire more polish, but still i kinda felt it and liked it. H scenes in other hand are really good, there are in-game animated ones, very similar to summer/winter life on countryside (same dev), there are CGI pixel animated ones that are gorgeus (they also exist in game mentioned), and there are not pixel CGI scenes that i didnt like that much but they are ok. There is plenty of scenes, they are not mind breaking but this was nice experience that i enjoyed. A bit of exploring and finding secrets to unlock more H scenes is good formula for me. I only wish this game was bigger, world outside of city looked mysterious and interesting, post-apocaliptic world with evil robots (hello nikke enjoyers) is cool. There is not much explained about lore or what happened. Also translation a bit sucks but thats very classic with jap games.

Legendary spritework, amazing atmosphere, lackluster everything else. This game is alright however as a game it leaves sooo much to be desired especially compared to other pixel based 2d h-platformers. The "dungeons" and "bosses" are especially terrible due to being extremely empty and in the case of the Giant whale or giant worm is a confusing kill or be killed mess. Outside of that the game has nothing else to really stand out good or bad compared to its contemporaries.

It's a beautiful pixel game, the dungeon might be basic but room layout and the world set piece are quite charming. Almost all the sub weapon can only be access while on the ground, so that limit their usability way more than basic attack. Except Drill-san, Drill-san is a boss killer with halve of the boss list being stationary. Sex is obligatory to progress with no option to refuse, which is fine, it's H-game. But I just want to explore and not exploits people who helped me with favor. There is scene that miffed me because of that, when the white haired girl felt like coming down with a cold, interacting with her next on the bed would lead to all-night heavy panting sex scene. Like, seriously? Were doing it while you're unwell? Wtf game???

Honestly one of the better games I've found on this site(although that is a personal bias). H content: The sex scenes are honestly not incredibly hard to access, in terms of quality, considering this is pixel art honestly quite amazing, however there aren't that many scenes 5/5 Gameplay/combat: Not very difficult, not incredibly interesting, often monotonous but perfect fit for casual players who don't want thornsin levels of struggling when playing. The dungeons are annoying to go through at times but you have a map so it should be fine overall. 2/5 if you want interesting combat mechanics, 4/5 if you just want casual stuff Story: It's... objectively decent and subjectively one of the best I've gotten(yeah I'm easy like that). There are parts that make more sense than others but overall it's quite alright. 5/5 Personal thoughts(and bias!) I can't quite explain it but it just feels so peaceful and cozy(spiritfarer vibes basically). I don't quite want to get corny describing it(and depending on your experiences till now you might just not relate) but y'know how it's like to take a stroll outside at 2-3 am or even 5am when there's barely anyone. It's an incredibly liberating feeling, I sorta felt that playing this game. That aside, while some interactions feel slightly forced, the characters are honestly quite well developed which was not something I expected considering too many ero games butcher their characters. My only complaint really is that this game was shorter(and smaller) than what I hoped for, maybe the dev will release another game similar in essence to this one and I will die happy.

* some of the best h scenes in the industry and easy game to beat so unlocking everything is only a matter of finding collectibles or reaching the gallery area after fighting the final boss. * story may be simple and boring for some but the atmosphere and art makes up for it plenty

2/5. Great art, game atmosphere, forgettable story and boring gameplay. Positives: - The pixel H scenes (both small and big) are great. 10/10 - The atmosphere of the world is great and consistent. Negatives: - IMO, the combat and exploration feels kinda clunky. Instead of feeling like I'm playing a commercially released game, it feels like I'm playing someone's first attempt of making a game at a game jam. - The Bosses are really disappointing. You could very easily avoid interacting with them even though you are trapped in the room with them (for the worm one, you can just jump away. The whale one/underwater missile shooting one, it was so far away from the entrance of the boss room that it took me more than a minute to find it). Instead of feeling tense or adrenaline, I was mostly confused about where the boss is and how to hit it. The final boss was the only one that was interesting. - The linear progression is basically enter a dungeon, collect a gem/orb, and then repeat. The dungeons themselves are unique in their styles and atmosphere, but doesn't stand out gameplay-wise. The exploration became extremely boring after the first dungeon. After obtaining the flying robot thing, I just flew through the rest of the dungeons. - Unlocking side sex scenes usually means finding something in the dungeon, then giving it to someone in town, not very interesting. I was really disappointed, especially with the good reviews this game had. As I was playing through the game, I was just waiting for it to get better. The premise and atmosphere at the very start of the game was great, but it was never expanded upon in any meaningful way. I wished that this game: - Had more interesting story, the main story and especially the side story with the other characters in the town. I feel that the town and its atmosphere is wasted, given how little there is to do there. - Had more interesting combat / enemies. Staying slightly outside the enemies range while shooting balls at them isn't the most engaging experience. They are also trivially easy to just ignore. Not to mention that you get a flying robot that trivializes all the dungeons. - Had more scenes for the bench.

One of my favourite games of all time, love everything about it but forgot to review. The environment is perfection and the characters are great, gameplay is good and mostly non repetitive. Art is peak.

H scenes Good pixel art H animations, as well as the CG. Some characters could have more variety in H animation/scenes, though. Gameplay It's alright. There are a lot of puzzles per area you unlock. There are some specific boss fights I like, but it's more about the boss' design/stage/set piece than the fight itself. Art style/World design Amazing, so is the game's ambiance. Some places just feel cozy/peaceful; Such as the witch's house, the coast outside the city walls, and the area outside the cafe. This feeling of coziness just increases if you're playing this game at night. TL;DR: Try it. It's a good game with good art style and a good ambiance.

The game has great animations when interacting with other girls, the atmosphere of the city is also very good, but when you enter the dungeons it seems to lose a bit of animation, despite being large there is little variation of enemies, I found the places very empty and that is where most of the game is spent collecting chests and doing missions. But for the story and the pixelated style, I highly recommend it.

I'm honestly disappointed. This game should've been a normal game, not an h-game; but its not good enough to be a normal game so it ended up having to be an h-game. The art drew me in while the beautiful world and pixel art kept me there, but the entire time I was thinking, "when is this going to get good?" Good: - The small and large pixel h-scenes are glorious. Even if you don't plan on playing this game, downloading a full save to experience the pixel scenes is worth the effort. - The characters are visually appealing and well proportioned. - The world art is beautiful. This game is visually appealing to play and explore. Bad: - The standard CGs are lackluster and, in some cases, not good. It's genuinely disappointing when you read the description of the h-scene and see that it's a standard CG instead of a pixel one. If you told me the CGs were made with AI, I wouldn't doubt you for a second. - Some girls who are visually appealing, such as the mechanic's older sister, only have one solo scene. If you're going to have some "one and done" characters, make them plain instead of erotic. The mechanic's older sister, hidden farmer, and the receptionist are incredibly wasted designs. Hell the farmer doesn't even have a scene. - The mechanic threesome scene (a standard CG) is disappointingly bad, not just because it's a standard CG but because the art is completely off from the overworld character designs. - The story doesn't give enough to make you invested in the world or characters, playing the game just feels like going through the motions. Additionally, when it ends it just kinda ends. No build up, no climax, no falling action. It's just there. - The gameplay is painful. Movement is slow, combat is chunky, and the platforming is annoying. - Breaks rule #1 of h-games: Must be playable with one hand. I'm here to have a good time, not make a mess of my keyboard. - No quest log and no direction. If you miss a line of where to go, you're going to be lost. - Has a pointless "feature" to recharge your cum. It's annoying as shit. General Scores: Hentai Quality: 4/5 - This would be a perfect score if not for the CGs. However, the pixel scenes are so good it gets a four. Hentai Quantity: 4/5 - There's a good amount of porn. Sex Buildup: 2/5 - There is minimal reasonable build-up to sex. Some girls will follow logical escalation (bj -> titjob -> sex) but other will let you go balls deep in their pussy as soon as you meet. Gameplay: 2/5 - The gameplay is painful. Movement is slow, combat is chunky, and the platforming is annoying and not fun. UI and QOL: 2/5 - The UI is great but my god the controls are awful, honestly the worst controls in any h-game I've ever played. Story Quality: 2/5 - There is a story but its bland as can be. Character Writing: 2/5 - The Witch carries this score as she's the only character who has a smidge of development/exploration. Sex Logic: 2/5 - A generous two out of five. The Witch fucks you for story reasons, but the rest of the girls throw themselves at you simply for being the only man in town and doing them one favor. Sex Text: 2/5 - Too much sex text, I don't need to read onomatopoeia for 5 minutes. Recollection Room: 4/5 - The CG room is unlocked as you go and the pixel room is unlocked once you beat the game. However, the pixel room lacks the overworld locations which takes away some of the appeal of the pixel h-scenes. This game is an instance of an idea being better than the reality. It is 100% worth downloading for the pixel h-scenes, but it's questionable if it is worth downloading to actually play.

Its a serviceable 2-3 hour long metroidvania with some clear inspriations from megaman legends. Since most of the eye themed robots are very much like a mix of hyper light drifter meets MML reaverbots. Same artstyles and all. Its mostly linear and you will have most of the items just playing normally if you have an IQ over room temp. Not a difficult map to navigate and you can get some items early, which means you wont trigger the events at the shopkeep for some weapons like the laser beam, until the postgame. Worldbuilding is nonexistent and literally just copies elements of Megaman Legends plot play by play. Especially with the several consoles needing to be turned on to grant the player admin access and unlock the final boss fight. However its just meh. It ends abruptly with the dev shrugging and saying "yeah, the game ends here." while you will be like "THATS IT?". They also don't tell you the god damn controls. V is the special weapon attack button and you cycle through them with S. All you need to care about is the drill. Park your ass next to the boss, and let her rip. It basically refunds any "ammo" it uses for killing standard enemies too making it effectively replace the shitty lantern weapon from the start of the game. 10 second or less boss fights. This includes the final boss. Dont even bother with anything else. Every weapon compared to the drill hits like a wet noodle. The only redeeming parts of this game were the pixel art and that the dev allows you to roam around in the postgame collecting all the animations and items you missed. Also the drill having a rediculously long several second windup animation that locks you in place and leaves you vulnerable to enemy attacks is just unacceptable. Its a very jank and clunky platformer because of bad design like this. There is also no quest log or waypoints beyond showing where you are on the map, and sometimes even that is unreliable if you find your way into side rooms. Absolute failure at basic game design with combat that is shitty even for a metroidvania with a pathetic "lantern" that has a shorter max range than pissing with a boner and you can't crouch to hit smaller enemies. Relying on the lantern's passive and unreliable aim assist to hit them instead if you dont just decide to fly right over them with the nier automata drone. As for the sex? Limited to cumming 4 times and having to go park your ass on a park bench to recharge them. The pixel art is good for the few scenes that have it, but the cg scenes look ai generated. Its really fucking annoying to just get "oops! you came more than four times! cant have sex right now!" and the sex animations lasting about 5 seconds max. As they don't tell you this alongside the basic control scheme of the game, but they expect you to toggle the cum meter. Because your character will have already cum at least twice before you go to reach down there will your hand. 3/5. Its an meh game with some effort put into the porn and half of it looking like ai cg for whatever isnt animated pixel art. A forgettable and short metroidvania not worth playing through more than once.

I have mixed feelings about this one. Let's start with the high point of the game: The pixel art, It makes the world to alive and the animations, wow some of the best I've seen in a NSFW game. There are also non pixel art CGs but they are subpar in comparison (One thing I appreciate is that you can usually see what kind of NSFW event you're going to get so yo can choose to avoid the ones you don't like). In my honest opinion: H Large > H small > CG. The story is just ok, nothing of note and I didn't get invested in the characters. And then there's the gameplay... It hurts. Movement is slow, the combat looks and feels horrible and the platforming sections are painful. I just wanted them to end to get to the next cg. I will go back to it for the excellent gallery but I would not recommend to engage with it more than that.

I like the design, I enjoy running around and killing monsters and I like getting rewards from the women I helped with their quests. Speaking of, the game is mainly about exploring, collecting and killing stuff while doing the mentioned quests- and since the game does NOT provide any help with either a quest log nor waypoints (you even DO have access to a map, but it is completely useless!), you will always have to run around the city (or even through the dungeons!), searching for ANYthing to trigger your next quest. This is annoying AF. And was the main reason to downvote this game. So, 2 stars for the "entertainment section", and 1 star for the gameplay. I would have liked it even more if much of the lewd stuff wasn't just slideshows of pictures- the animated scenes are SO much better! It's a shame, could have been so much better.

Finish the game, the art is very great, having both pixels animation and cg, character having voices make it even better. Gameplay was alright, no lag , a bit lacking in variaty of attack options, could be better but still ok, just that after the ending for whatever reason my game was almost completely dark, manage to work around it after a while though Story was eh and short, too many unanswered questions and the ending was abrupt, to put it nicely Overall still one of the better games that I have played here though, so I'll definitely recommend anyone to try it

Poor MTL and some glitches hamper what would otherwise be easily the best exploratory game I've played in a bit. It's simple and straight forward with some funny references to some games (devs are clearly fans of 2B and of Elden Ring). The fact that it's not some shitty VN may filter some, as one needs to have patience to really explore and unlock all the content, but that's what 100% saves are for anyhow. I hope someone finds and translates this or the devs at some point toss some money toward getting their work translated because it's a gorgeous game otherwise.

hug > cried > i don't wanna be horni, i just wanna be happy probably one of the best H game i've ever played, you definitely need a good headphone to enjoy the game to the fullest because the audio is so good, even though the MTL are a bit confusing sometimes (it doesn't really bother me since i knew a bit japanese) Edit: official english is out

*sigh* The game is boring and repetitive and the story is almost incomprehensible, due to a very bad MTL. And yet... the H-Scenes made my brain rot from pleasure . For this reason 4/5. Spoiler: Again... *sigh* Another white haired villain, another playable cum sprinkler... the cycles continue, isn't it? Mary Sue .
