itch.io

Also, I see that there are more costumes in the updates since I've last been here... Another aspect I like about these games. (+1 Character score)

Yo! Took me long enough. I might as well be dead now. But not after some more reviews on itch!

This time, we'll look at Lucky Paradox by Stawer. Honestly, it's been a while since I played this and my life is getting a bit more busy since Covid is slowing down (seemingly)... Let's use three factors for our grade. Character, their originality or development, story, both it's originality and development, and (a new one) personal enjoyment. Through my career in writing comments on indie developers games, I realized that my personal enjoyment should be a factor in my grading process. 

Characters  7/10:

Now now, I think the last time I played this, the file size was 1.4 GB and the Primrose story line ended after your date at the fountain. It's been a while. And I plan to continue to play this and possibly update this comment. 

But, either way, I was hooked. After all, the other love interests are adorable. And I'll say this again and again, I love moe and cute. 

The character development also seemed unique and original, at least to me. Such as Layla's development. I always found her unique since there was always more I wanted to know about her. I won't spoil anything but, to me, her story was a twist I wasn't expecting. To be honest, I don't know what I was expecting but not that at least. This is one reason why I love it when there is good character development. Especially if it's done well.

Storyline 8/10:

Granted, I last played this when the story was not even close to being finished; hence why I will be generous with this grading process. One of the main reasons why I'm putting this so high is because of the potential I see within it. The story starts off with your best friend, who you can't find when you go to visit him. All I know is that the answer lies within another dimension (or something, I dunno exactly). There's not much I can say here. Maybe it's better than I state it to be.

Personal Enjoyment 10/10:

I, personally, really enjoyed this. I plan to play this to completion (100% babyy) in the future. I like this kinda of romance progressing story line, and the baseline story in general is intriguing. In fact, I would recommend this to a friend. It really speaks for itself at this point.

Final Grade: 25/30 - Would recommend to a friend, would play again.

Of course! (As a completionist) I always try to find everything possible! After all, you just gotta respect the amount of effort that goes into games like Melting Point (And if no one does, I will!) And I will definitely keep an eye out for more content on Melting Point!

Keep up the good work! The game is lookin amazing so far!

(OH! I almost forgot! There are headpats!!! Add 5 points onto the overall grade!)

I finally got the time to review and play some more H games! (No, I'm not dead). I saw this cute game in the works so I took the time to play the demo. Because this is, in fact, a demo, there won't be much for me to say but I'll say as much a I can.

So... Welcome back to another comment of H *clap* Reviews *clap*! I'm gonna look over the demo of "Melting Point" by AstroKaen!

Overall Grade: 30/30 -- Will wait for the official release patiently! 

Storyline 10/10:

The storyline is really intriguing to me. I was interested in how people would portray a blacksmith, and more importantly, get it right. And it surprised me to see a metal girl, Tin (We officially have waifus for everything! What a time to be born). and the blacksmith being able to help her. Then there's the on going war which Tin barely escaped from.

In other words, I can't wait to see where this is going! And how much it would develop in the player's eyes from what they received in the demo. 

Artwork 10/10:

If you know me from previous comments and such, you'll know I'm a sucker for moe and "cute-sy" art. I would put this art style under that category. I don't have much more to say about it other than it's cute!

Character Development 10/10:

You've heard me say it before but I'll say it again, "I love character development". I saw a lot more spaces for other characters and how the "affection" part of the game progresses the respective characters actions and dialogue. 

One of my buddies told me that another small detail (which I would've missed out on if I didn't know that my bud also played this demo) is when you click on Tin when she is "attending". Before you get to know her, she is defensive which changes after you take the time to actually get to know her. 

That is one small detail which I appreciate. The game would function perfectly without it but the Devs wanted to put that in. 

Conclusion:

This would be one of the few games I am willing to wait for the official release. An interesting and unique storyline, cute artwork, and of course (the best part) good character development! I would recommend this to a friend and I would play it again!

Thanks for reading another review of H *clap* Reviews *clap* So, remember, if you're looking for a cute metal waifu and are looking to fight some aliens to protec her, this is in your forte. That's it from me, until next time.

Welcome to another comment of H *clap* Review *clap*! As the name state, I'll be stating pros and cons of this beautiful Hgame, Mythic Manor by Jikei. There are also 3 categories within the game I'd like to discuss, storyline, artwork, and character development ... (Of course, there may be spoilers here)

Overall Grade: 32/30 -- Would play again, 

Storyline: 11/10   *Extra factor listed in "Extra Notes" section

There isn't really one big storyline I can talk about but my personal favorite would be Naira's storyline. When I was younger, I dealt with a lot of people who could relate to Naira to a degree. Small factors of self-doubt and because of that, being shy. I don't really know if I like the storyline because I relate to it or because it's been executed well (more likely than not, both!)

Artwork: 10/10

I'm typically not one for 3d models because many people don't know how to use it well (or I haven't found the right games, lol). However, in my experiences, the models in this game are perfect. Every Hgame I play, I go in with high expectations and this game, Mythic Manor did not disappoint. It went above my expectations for a game containing 3d models!

Character Development: 11/10

I'm someone who absolutely loves character development. Whether the characters go from annoying to caring or caring to annoying. There is a thin line on those transitions. Many people don't know how to implement it (Such as having a character break their role/character). Fanora is always bubbly and happy. Naira is reserved and shy. Velle is known for sex (Kinda hot, ngl). Esther is caring. And Nefari is the scientist. They. All. Stick. To. Character. Only breaking when necessary or when it's important to the storyline.

THAT is how you use literary elements to your advantage!

Extra Notes:

First off... The game is free. It's rare to find a game like that. And at a quality like this? Complaints should be at a minimum here.

Secondly... There are multiple storylines. It's hard enough to make a game with two/three different endings. To make a game with good quality details in each storyline would be more difficult than different endings (Of course, in my opinion. This is not objective).

Thank you for reading! I really can't wait for the future of this game. Though, I would become a patron, I no longer receive an income. This quarantine really takes a toll, huh? Stay safe ya'll and love yourself!

I love it. I haven't seen a game that makes use of only females, but, I won't say that I'm opposed to the idea, either... I would say I'm all for it.

I won't even go into detail about this because 1) it's a demo, there isn't much to discuss and 2) there are no flaws whatsoever. 

Voice acting (VA) is on point and art style is beautiful. I think we can all assume that not only the HScenes that are gonna be beautiful, but, every scene will be.

10/10 would recommend to a friend

Oh, you're the creator I can't play the games of because I gotta pay! Dude, all your game are on my bucket list!

If you don't know, I don't receive an income yet + this whole Covid is stopping me from getting a job + school is getting overwhelming.

Mate, your games are gonna be the first I download once I get a paycheck. But, how long am I going to have to wait?

Alright. An idol? Seems original and unique. Give me two weeks and I'll come back for another ... H! Review! *clap* *clap*

Heh, seriously tho. Give me a week or two and I'll be back with a review. Afterall, it's in my username.

Overall Grade: 6/10 Would recommend. 9/10 Would play again.

Welcome to another comment of H! Review! *clap* *clap* There are three (3) criteria I would like to go over in the game, "Pathetic Demon" by Mack"U: Artwork, storyline, and character (development).

Artwork: 10/10

- If you don't recognize me, here's a fact you should know. I typically only play "moe" HGames. The fact that this artwork in "Pathetic Demon" is cute and moe, I played it.

- In conclusion, the artwork is amazing. The girls' art style is cute. 

Storyline: 8.5/10

- I've never played a HGame where there is a demon (even if there is an abundance of them), I am not opposed to it. I like the idea, too!

- Though, there is not much content, I believe that this is a game worth commenting on. I browsed Patreon a bit (and because I'm too poor to be a Patreon I don't know why), I am told the next update is going to be the last one. Unfortunate, yeah; however, if the update has a bit more content, I'm sure other fans would appreciate it.

Character Development: 8/10

- I like all the characters and how the characters in the main story had a problem and how the character you play as (Main Character) fixes those problems with, none other than, sex.

- I believe that those problems being solved and joining the group is enough character development. Could there be more? Yeah, but this is enough.

Conclusion:

- At this stage of development, I would not recommend this to my friends (which I have few of) but I would definitely play this again. I love where the storyline is right now (and can't wait to see where it goes with the last update), the artwork is cute (and I love it), and the characters each are unique and leave an impression on you.

Thanks for reading this review on "Pathetic Demon". I love this game. If you're looking for a game with cutesie art and a working storyline, then I would tell you that this game is worth it. HDecoder, out.

I found it there too. It's good promotion, right? (Though, legally, I don't think it should be there)

Overall Grade: 100% would recommend!

As my name states, *clap clap* H! Review! (WITH SPOILERS) I haven't completed the novel yet; however, I had a feeling that I should write a post here.

There's only 3 criteria to analyze: Storyline, artwork, and Character Development.

Storyline: 9/10

- As I have not finished the novel yet, these are my first impressions. It's elusive and mysterious. Right at the start of the novel, you're wondering, "Wha- What's the secret behind this beautiful catgirl?" Also, there are not many mysteries and questions at the beginning, which is perfect because if there were too many, many viewers would lose interest. 

- It is also consistent. Madeline said, "She's not supposed to be a maid" in the beach chapter. It stays with the storyline and gives the characters depth as most developers might've forgotten that fact sooner than later.

- Overall, I think the storyline is good. It has good mysterious which draw in the viewer and being aware of not having too much to push the viewer away. 

Artwork: 10/10

- There's not much to say about this portion. Mainly because art is subjective and also this art already looks amazing.

Character Development: 8.5/10

- Here's where I'm a bit iffy. I understand this is a harem visual novel and it can't be a harem without more than 3-4 waifus. However, introducing Miyu seemed really forced as she suddenly just appeared.

- I can understand Madeline because there's lore with her and Cynthia. So, introducing her at the workplace with hints here and there (the market) was a perfect transition. 

- Cynthia's character was amazing. We clearly saw development in her maid skills and with the choices I made, Cynthia, also tries out different "ways" to please the MC. (Remember, time fast-forwards in this visual novel) We also see that Cynthia is trying her best to be alone with the MC. Before, she would not have done that as her mindset is fixated on being a maid and following orders ... In other words, I appreciate this character devlopment.

- Overall, introducing Miyu seemed forced (but! another waifu, so I won't complain). I still know nothing about Madeline. And Cynthia has had the most development (Mainly because she's got the most screen time)

Thank you for reading my review on UncleArtie's visual novel, "My Catgirl Maid Thinks She Runs the Place!" If I only had one word to describe this visual novel: Amazing.

Oh, also...

When I finally find a job that will accept me, I'll come back and become a Patreon. It might take a long time, but, I can promise that I'll come back, lol.

Mate, I would donate as much money as I can if I got accepted to a job. Love the Moe art style and the story line as well! If there is any H-Game that can beat this demo... Actually, that's impossible. 

As is my name, I will be talking about this H-Game and it's good and bad points. My reviews probably won't have much bad points because my standards are *very* high. 

Game play: Game play is nice. I have an older laptop; hence, why I cannot donate even if I wanted to (I'm poor af... Also, if I did have money, I would probably be on your patreon, lol). It runs smoothly, of course with some hiccups here and there. Although I am not sure if it was this game or not (but, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt), this game also uses WASD as controls. Everyone knows that if you're playing a H-Game, one of your hands will be busy, hehe.

Also, this is not just some choose your ending type of game. You actually have to explore and adventure. I can tell that there is a lot of detail and secrets that absolutely did not need to be there. The amount of detail and secrets in this H-Game impresses me. (I applaud the time and effort this took).

Story line: Perfect. Although there is not much to begin with, I can see where this might be going. However, focusing on the story line right now, it's perfect. You're part of a team that performs in different places. It's interesting and different, which I like. Also, I remember something about spells. It could lead somewhere interesting with the story line. (I really can't wait to see where this is going).

H-Scenes: As I mentioned in the beginning, I love Moe art. Cute things, people, etc. Every scene was great. (Although I am not legally allowed to say whether or not I approved of such things, lol). 

Anyway, that'll be it. I know lots of H-Game  developers look for support and whatnot. So, here I am.
