Shadows of Seduction

Wow just wow! The animations are next level and there are plenty of them! The mini-games are okay but good enough and also the story and choices make sense. But yeah my main reason for the 5 stars are the animations and overall renders. Keep it up!

I must say it’s a decent game. The plot is fairly interesting and not pretentious. The art is good, and there is a reasonable amount of erotic content, although at times it feels a bit too childish. Overall, it is a pleasant game to play. I hope to see more sophisticated situations and events in the future, but it is not a disappointment so far.

Very poor title. It is just a mess throughout the whole experience. Pro's - Decent models. - Sound - A story foundation that has some potential. - Its still early enough into the games life to fix Con's -The MC is a spineless religious zealot dipshit and the whole premise of the characters backstory and personality are genuinely infuriatingly stupid and weak. - Sandbox - You choices feel like they are weightless and irrelevant. And you are CONSTANTLY given a singular prompt to "choose" from. That isnt interactive or immersive that is just lazy. - The choices you ARE given are unsatisfying and not what the player would want the character to say/act like - You are constantly annoyed by your phone going off and you HAVE to answer every single call, you can ignore no one. And yes, you have to click the *answer call* prompt or else youll be stuck there. - Forced sex scenes that offer nothing to the overall story and feel like they were just placed there for a "horny moment". - You dont shape the character enough. This game has potential to be something but it would need a whole rewrite to get to the point of being worth giving a positive review.

Top of the line renders and animations. Visually, this is a six-star game. The females are unusually attractive, too. Aside from a labret on the demon, nobody has any stupid ugly shit going on, and I love the inclusion of the "Dee" model. Some people have complained about the dearth of immediate sex, but nearly every scene is hot as hell--if you ignore the writing and the music. If anybody wants to get off to this and can't, they've got issues and should see a therapist. Drawbacks: 1) MC looks good but is otherwise pathetic in every sense imaginable. You can change his name, but I don't recommend using your own. Deduct two stars for this clown and for lame dialogue, generally. 2) There is too much unnecessary clicking, such as choiceless choices and clicking through a series of questions that would roll smoother if automatic. 3) There is inane commentary, such as when MC accepts an invitation and the MILF responds that she's glad and will wait by the pool, then MC again accepts the invitation and the MILF repeats that she's glad and will wait by the pool, or when MC sees a girl sunbathing topless and thinks, She's sunbathing topless... This talented dev would do well to partner with a writer of equal merit. I'd offer my services, but I've got more pressing projects.

Lets start with the good.....the models and animations. Now everything else. Unskippable minigames meant to pad time because there is nothing here. There is no sex except a ghost barely fucking scene. Will there be? Yeah maybe in a year or so. There are selectable dialogue where there is only one choice. Its all just padding with a shiny cover and when ever you think you are getting somewhere someone walks in or your MC just decides to do nothing. Whats worse is the one girl in the house who is a slut, just gives you a handy at a point. Even if there was sex, stopping and doing a mini game for no reason is just annoying.

As far as I am concerned, this VN has no redeeming qualities because there's no premise or script as such, no grind, everything about it, including it's many forced AI features, is annoying and idiotic, plus, all women look and act like horny, brainless bimbos, which isn't necessary or entertaining for any man or woman over the age of 12. Seriously, this is a piece of talentless crap.

A fun little VN that doesn't try to do anything complicated, it just wants you to have a good time. The models are all beautiful and very flirty and there doesn't seem to be a huge amount to the story so far but it works. I would have like it if you could rename the MC but the reason is given as to why. I was a bit concerned at the start which is slow, the format is odd with the text all over the screen and religious but once Adam leaves everything picks up and goes.

Strong start! Models are awesome, scenery, lighting, and the AI (IMHO) scenes does serve as a nice touch (albeit a little too much in some rather mundane moments, so maybe don't over do it alright?). I'm not sure if it's the intended vibes, but this one does not cather too much into the mystery/horror genre, in fact, it's mostly auxiliary and much more focused on the daily micro management with the girls. So far (0.2) the story seems pretty stale and you get a glimpse about the overall structure of the faith/church, meanwhile characters do have their personality well established. Anyway, looks interesting, promising, hope for the best!

VERSION: v0.2 SUMMARY: Not bad actually, got some decent visuals and audio. RATINGS: (out of 5): ⭐⭐⭐ ⭐ NOTE: The following categories and scoring method are my own criteria and may require more context. Additionally , scoring is based on the state, and what is in the current version and not what may or may not be introduced at a later point. Character (Model) Visuals......... : ⭐⭐⭐⭐ General (World) Visuals........... : ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Animation Quality................. : ⭐⭐⭐ Character Personality(Persona).... : ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Story & Dialogue .................. : ⭐⭐ Writing & Grammar................. : ⭐⭐⭐⭐ UX/UI, Game Type & Mechanics.......: ⭐⭐ Playtime & Pacing ..................: ⭐⭐⭐ Music & Sounds .....................: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Adult Content & Fetishes.......... : ⭐⭐⭐ Average: X of 50 possible points giving a X% rating i.e. X stars. PROS: - See my opinions section for details. MC looks fine, considering he is a young man. LIs are sexy and good looking. Small scene animations like blinking eyes are a nice touch and add to immersion, same with some random audio like "yawning" General animations are good and done well, the body movement of the MC while in the cab, walking of characters and such even if AI was used is done well. Added to above the audio is decent also, immersive and good quality. Writing is decent, structured and reads well. Characters have some complexity, MC feels real enough, has realistic thoughts and expressions which are delivered well. Dialogue is simple, not bloated or tedious to get through and conveys the message effectively and clearly with enough emotion to understand the characters demeanor and personality. CONS: - See my opinions section for details. Not being to name the MC, this is not a deal breaker, but a custom name can be made to work with slight adjustments? Dialogue text can do with a size silder or setting, as it is now its fairly large and can drop in size. Clickable items in scene are not a bad thing but due to the fact that some can be overlooked/missed is not really a good thing IMO. Graininess to some images and scenes where renders are in focus. Meshing and details to animations that break immersion like Jessica walking up the stairs, she should be climbing and her body posture does reasonably fit someone climbing stairs, but her feet do not mesh with the steps. This shows how AI was used to take a walking character and apply her to climbing stairs, pretty obvious and something to look into. Plot is one thing but the setting is a bit jarring, normally one would think a house should be old and have some history to need an exorcism, but this place looks brand new...not a con per se though. Point system being hidden and having hidden thresholds or conditions is a tad annoying, and all that you can really do is play both good and bad and see if there are any major differences, because odds are they you will not be able to see some scenes due to your alignment. Pointless buttons, "go to room" "go to kitchen" etc, when there are no other options...why bother listing them? UX/UI issue where text can sometimes start going over previous, like the previous render was not removed causing overlap. OPINIONS, SUGGESTIONS & FINAL REMARKS : NOTE: The following remarks are my personal opinions and thoughts, which may provide more context and could be useful to the developer. (Read them or don't) Even though the animations are good, they will need work as some of them clearly do not work or are not done "smoothly" which becomes obvious and breaks immersion unfortunately. While the house looks new, I can only imagine that the spirit/s are linked to some artifact in the house, this seems the most plausible and would make the house being new and yet possessed make more sense. Access to point system and also information on each of the LIs would be nice. Clearly some enjoy the good and others the bad behaviour, knowing which and having reference to "corruption" etc is needed, players simply wont keep track of this otherwise over time. Not sure if this is worth mentioning, but the animations do not feel like they made with or from the same tools, some animations the characters look more "artificial" other times they look very life like...this is apparent and also breaks immersion, consistency to me is critical. TLDR: Fairly impressive and done well, scenes have a professional feel to them, as does the animations and audio. Writing also is decent, the story/plot is semi unique in the setting, but the circumstances are fairly similar and done many times before. Some animations that are AI generated need work as they do break immersion when not done properly. There are some other bugs like dialogue overlap and such, but overall its pretty good and I would recommend this. If you able to support this developer, then do so, the quality product speaks for itself. I will re-review this but honestly I can't find too much fault that can't be fixed.

Very clearly AI has been involved here Transitions/Animations that are unnecessary. Some of them won't skip. Zoom In/Out is unnecessary and give motion sickness almost Moderation mini game is useless and stupid Adam's Father & Step Sister are twats Not a lot going on here yet, its interesting but its just going to be a time waster never an elite tier AVN

So far v0.2: Beautiful models A unique story. Fantastic dialogue. Great personalities for each LI. They're just not robotic. I love the floating text. It lets me read the text without having to move my field of view off the LIs faces and down to the bottom of the screen. Great job DEV! Moving from room to room with the next room's preview Artistically innovative Nice background music Forgot to mention, next level animations! If characters just walking away from the MC look this good, what are the H-scenes going to be like? MC's cock is not SUPER massive like previous titles LIs are not sluts... yet. Lia just plays the role of a wannabe slut, IMHO A couple of bugs but not show-stoppers Great cliffhanger! So, ignore the naysayers and give this one a go. If you're not into reading every syllable, it may not be for you. I enjoyed every slow click of my left mouse button!
