Don't let the rating fool you. 3/5 is still "average" tier, according to F95's description. Because this is an odd one. Technically, we weren't meant to see this, as the dev themselves stated this was a project made purely for self-indulgent reasons. However, I'm of the opinion that those are the best stories, as they aren't beholden to adding details just to make the consumer happy. It's arts for arts sake. That being said, this is still an amateur project at the end of the day, and it reads and plays like one. There are several places for improvement, and several places where things are done well. I hope to encourage you to play the game for yourself. And if the dev is reading, I hope my critiques can make this product or the next a better version of itself. For you, and me, and everyone else that tries it out. Getting into it, the lowest point for me is the art. The character models are very generic, and a little lifeless. Even here though, there are some fun monster girl additions like a slime girl (my favourite) that actually looks really good, but none of them feature heavily enough. The main cast are all standard koikatsu fair, leading to the h-content to not really be for me for it's "intended" purpose. Some mods or shaders could up the quality by several points here. There is more to this than just porn, however. The writing, for example, is pretty decent. I actually like the lighthearted comedic vibe the majority of the story has. There's plenty of references to real-world movies and memes, so if you're trying to get immersed by the world, you won't be. But if you want to be pleasantly entertained, I believe this has what you're looking for. The story does become more serious after the first game, and it's not always successful at hitting that tone. But it's ambitious enough to go for it, and it's not bad either. It's just not "woah that blew my socks off" tier. And I'd rather the author try to stretch themselves and miss the mark by several centimeters than never try at all. The characters themselves are mostly generic archetypes. I wasn't sold by the main LI (GF) or the second main LI (sword). And even the third main LI (nurse) was a bit dubious, but she grew on me more as time went on. Their connection to the MC is shallow and unpolished in my opinion. The rest of the harem fairs a good bit better, as they get introduced and developed with more care. But it's still rough, and part of reason why the sex scenes felt bland and lifeless to me. In a bit of a twist, the tsundere-type is the most well written. Her back and forths with the MC were good, with how their relationship develops and progresses was my favourite aspect of the story. The MC himself has some flaws and some strengths, making him a character I could root for. Although, his deus ex machina and chosen one aesthetic feel overplayed and there's not enough in there to make him truly memorable for me. (Tangent: I saw how you put Ordis from Warframe in here. Don't think I didn't recognize what you were doing with the MC's "daughter".) Similarly, the setting is one of generic low-fantasy with advanced tech. It's serviceable, with enough lore and worldbuilding introduced naturally throughout. I was never bored while reading this game's dialogue or story, which is already a massive accomplishment. Kudos. The gameplay is mostly kinetic, with a few choices sprinkled here and there to develop or change MC's relationship to the characters. No branching paths or anything crazy, however. It's basically a kinetic novel, which works much better for this kind of game than a sandbox or multiple ending type story would. Of note is the music. The dev claims it sucks but I beg to differ. If you're a music shitpost enjoyer as I am, then you'll quickly discover a lot of the tracks featured are SiivaGunner rips. Honestly? Based. Made the experience that much better for me. In summary, I recommend you give this one a shot if you want a more low stakes story and a fun romp to pass the time with. I congratulate the dev and thank him for sharing this. I hope to play the finished story one day.

SO! there is no gameplay, sound, or great quality draws, then what makes this visual novel good? is the funniest story i read in a while. it feels like a web comic, but with more more sex animations. this visual novel deserve your time and money. posdata: it could use more details, like sounds or better effects.
