  1. great stroryline and deep meaning in real life damn. but ending its noneneces no true ending its wasteful. and another developer abanonded rushed ending itself.

  2. Dev Just gave up, ending is rushed and no matter what choices you made the entire game it means nothing. Not even a red, blue or green choice, just a fade to black

  3. I found the story very depressing. I gave up.

    I like games that amuse me. To make anyone sad, this world full of pain and wars is enough.

  4. This game is not a Sandbox. The tag is wrong. In fact, in F95 the original post does not have said tag…
    Let’s see, this game has a quite original story and the creator knows how to keep the pace. It has one of the best stories along with “Artemis”. Unfortunately this game in terms of execution is terrible. By execution I mean how the story is presented within Renpy. From time to time there are transitions, which shows that the guy knows how to do them (it’s super simple), but he chose not to have transitions. The images follow one after another abruptly, it looks ugly. And that is avoided with the use of transitions. It’s as easy as adding a “with Dissolve”, that’s how easy it is (although there are more methods, some can even be shorter if definitions are used). Anyway, the guy is lazy or has no aesthetic tastes. The game “physically” looks ugly. In short, a very good story within a poorly executed game.

  5. this story man… i used to work for the wife of a family that had the same sad story. Truck accident took her and the 2 kids back then. the husband was a super nice guy and he definitely didnt deserve what happen to his family. idk how he’s doing now days but i hope he found happiness again

  6. I return to comment after finishing the AVN until his recent update, I must say that I was pleasantly surprised, the story is very good even though the beginning can be somewhat heavy, the story takes a very interesting twist, do not be fooled by the “sandbox” tag has nothing to do with grinding, luckily, in fact they should remove it.
    If you are looking for a story that will blow your mind and you are not mentally unstable, it is a highly recommended AVN, the only bad thing about it is that the lewd scenes are very short and that is a shame because the girls are beautiful but without a doubt the strong point of this AVN is the story, it is not a masterpiece but it is definitely one of the best AVN you will find

  7. This AVN makes me quite angry… It seems that the only way to get someone to help you or notice you is to be a dramatic person who feels sorry for himself…

  8. One problem I had when I tried the game is I do suffer with a form of depression – so the beginning of it did me personally no favors (and really is not in line with Harem as a Genre…) A greater failing I would say is that most Devs not just this one, that try to add such weighted concepts either have flaws within their debate of the concepts at core, or they haven’t got any kind of answer to their own question. To make it sound like they might be smart enough that it would be the debate it should be… except for the larger problem inherent. It’s a monologue. Not a dialogue. So it’s an expression of opinion; rather than a debate. Which is inherent to philosophy, and a part of that academic study as a core. So while I can appreciate the attempt, the biggest problem of all is that it’s misplaced. Highly. Since quite frankly, even if you get lucky with a player that wants/can appreciate a “good” story in long-form (though again, I would debate calling this game as it started any kind of good based on what was written of the MC’s thoughts alone. Never mind the girls’) most of us are here for porn. We’re not looking for high concepts from this site, or the games on it. If I wanted to appreciate philosophy, I could go buy a textbook and read that. Apply to University, and have at it. If I wanted to debate the nature of Good and Evil, I’d watch The Omen or Prophecy. As far as the origin of the cosmos, again… All of that without means for actual debate or proper discourse, comes off as either in general; fairly or incredibly pretentious. No one has the answers there, and we probably never will. Nor do I think we should, even if we somehow had the right materials to find the correct answer.

    By and large, I can appreciate that you feel pleased/impressed/amazed – what have you, that a dev bothered to try and touch these topics. I would point out though that there are several games that’ve done the same and at the end, that’s all it it. An attempt. Barely touching any of the cores of any of these concepts, and not being able to properly implement the argument in opposed voices and opinions, that would actually add merit as a genuine debate. What it is, would be then a means for the dev to get out their own demons. Which I feel based on what little chance I gave this game long ago, is what the dev was really doing. Frankly, I have enough of my own; and if the dev doesn’t understand the tenats of a genre (Harem is almost unequivocally meant to be LIGHTER at heart than any other genre, and fairly much less punishing, more fun) then perhaps they should stick to writing literally any other type of game. Because no one wants a harem of girls who were three seconds away from blowing their own brains out, when MC feels generally like he wants to test if he can walk on water. I mean they could have named this one The Suicide Girls, or even The Suicide Squad… but they’d be sued into oblivion either way. Maybe then, they’d find the answers to the questions they pose, Hmmm? Food for thought. Or is it Thots for food? Eh, I preferred Morrowind anyway.
