Postmortem of Chara Suba

Hey friends,

You may have noticed that last week, I released Chara Suba. For it, I chose to make a small game and price it accordingly. It’s a straightforward game: a VN with multiple choices. You try all the choices and unlock all the 15 different endings.

I paid special attention to the details. First, because a scene can have multiple pictures, I had to try my best for the picture to stay coherent which is never easy with AI. I also had AI generate a lot of sex scenes so that I could select parts and add them to the game. This game has a lot more descriptive sex scenes than my previous games.

To me, the game turned out good compared to my expectations when I started working on it. I think all the endings are fun and engaging. Some pictures turned out great. And there are tons of bonus (futapills, furrypills…)

The game was a failure, it didn’t sell well and the ratings are low, so I’m not going to do another one like it soon. The game has only been released for a week so there is a slight chance of comeback! I’m not sure what people didn’t like with this game, nor what they liked as I received only two comments.

One was “Fine, but not much to it”. The other was “wish there was a way to track choices you’ve already made, but other than that it was solid. Great scenes”

This failure isn’t a catastrophe since I made the game in less than a month. One thing that went well is that there don’t seem to be any bugs so for once, I didn’t have to publish a bugfix.

I’ve uploaded the HTML version of the game on Mega: https://mega.nz/folder/bYdCAAIR#uEXnFy8l4p97iVl_7RDPuQ

Feel free to download it and upload it on your website if you have one.

It happens, I like your more streamlined multi person games, Vanilla games tend to be boring without an interesting concept behind them, this one also had no build up, it would of been better if it was more inline with the actual universe and we saw how kazuma got so good with the ladies... maybe like an incubus spell or something. I think this would of also been better as a larger project and an adventure like a less grindy version of chara dungeon, there is a 3d version of that with some ntr themes and it seems well liked(I didn't look at their patreon numbers). I do also think konosuba is overdone as a solitary source of content, a site I know you frequent has numerous konasuba games. Most likely due to konosubas popularity.  For what it's worth the hentai scenes in this were great, the descriptions were a solid step up and the multi person scenes were a lot better then your other games. Hopefully you can put some of that into your next game. 

Thanks for thinking the scenes were a step-up. I’ll try to continue to improve. There are some good konosuba games out there, it’s because the characters are perfect to write fan-fictions.
