That was the best blend of horror, comedy and even romance. Love the art, writing, style of game play. Bravo, well done. 

Amazing, loved it. We need more erotic otome with voice acting. Thank you for quenching my thirst. 

DeluCat - bravo to you! Love this game. The writing and story pacing was perfect. The art is gorgeous - backgrounds, sprites, computer graphics. Adore the voice actor - what a pleasure for the ears! Thank you so much, aboslutely loved this. 

Hot damn. Sweetmilk Games, you're my new favourite game dev. I love everything - art (sprites, computer graphics, background), writing and pacing is perfect. Ronan is hot. Chef's kiss, I love it. Would you consider voice actor for Ronan in a later release? Bravo to you. This is amazing. 

Adore this! The art and story is amazing. Femdom for the win.

Brilliantly done. I'm unsettled, spooked and hope to never have to catch the last bus home, like ever. Great concept, executed marvellously. Bravo! 

Everything about this game is gorgeous - the writing, the love interests, the art, the programming. My all time favourite scene is Graham and his muscles, you know the one! What a gift to the otome community. Bravo! 

Thanks Duncan.  I appreciate you taking the time to reply, and share your art process to clarify for your customers.  You're a brilliant artist!  I'm always on the hunt for quality background art, so I'm glad I found you.  Thanks.  

Hi Duncan,

Same question as pren1 - can you confirm whether any AI involved?  Your tag of "Painting" indicates all painted by yourself as artist with zero AI involvement, so keen for you to validate.  Thanks!

Chattercap, you continue to be amazing. Your animated sprites and CG are always a pleasure to the eye. Your writing and choices are engaging. Love your work!  Kalei is just the sweetest, I love him.  

Wow! Love the art - character sprites, computer graphics, user interface, even gritty backgrounds.  The writing and story are wicked good.  Sol is such a great character, love his whole vibe and intensity. Bravo!

Great.  I thought so.  Thanks for confirming all hand drawn assets. Much appreciated.  

Hi, can you confirm whether hand drawn or AI generated?  From your main Thaena Productions page, I'm guessing hand drawn, but would appreciate the clarity.  Thanks!  

Open itch.io from your browser and you can download the game from there. It's pretty awesome, so worth the extra steps.  https://paleoginstudio.itch.io/one-nighter

Hi, thanks so much for getting back to me.  It's fantastic you offer sprites with mutiple outfits and full suite of face expressions.  Please know you're already doing a wonderful provision of assets and service for indie dev's and I truly love you for it.  It was a cheeky request, but I figured it didn't hurt to ask.   I'm happy you took the time to investigate and I'm honored with your reply.  Thanks very much for you time.  Kind regards, Lila

Hello, would you consider offering an alternate download zip file package with transparent backgrounds and separate .png files?  This would help art newbies like myself who 1. don't have Adobe to open the original PSD files, and 2. struggle with alternate art programs like Paint.net.  It would allow easy "placeholder" sprite art, e.g. sci_fi_captain_uniform_happy.  e.g. sci_fi_captain_nude_embarrassed.  Where there's an upfront level of effort to create the alternate package, it's a once off effort on your part, with huge benefit to your end user.  It makes your offering more accessible, which is more user friendly. This may be more attractive for future customers, and may increase your customer base.  See these assets for an example of my ask:  https://linxuelian.itch.io/charres-wonderland.Thanks for your time. Kind regards, Cheers, Lila

Thank you so much!

So I've realised I need to be more explicit in my ask.  My bad!  Are you ok if I make arrangements for additional Computer Graphic art based on your Wonderland character designs?  Will be exposed male chests from waist up mostly.  I plan to use your sprites majority of game, then good ends will get naked chest/abs.  Apologies for not being clearer before.  Thank you so much!  

Hi LinXueLian,
Thank you so much for getting back to me.  No worries at all, I know you're busy and I'm totally stoked to hear back from you.  
Thanks for confirming you're ok with your assets being used in a not safe for work (NSFW) capacity.  It's always good to double check these things.  
Your art is so beautiful - sprites and backgrounds.  You're such a wonderful person making your beautiful art assets available for others to use.  You're a true inspriation and wonderful contributor to the game development industry.  
Have a great day.
Kind regards,
Lila

Hi LinXueLian,

Firstly, thank you so much for providing free sprite and background assets.  Your work is amazing!

Secondly, question: Do you grant permission for your sprites in a not-safe-for-work (NSFW) free otome game?  If not NSFW, then is suggestive mature content okay?

Thank you so much!

Kind regards

Lila

Hi there,

Thank you so much for your feedback.

I apologise that I cannot fulfill your request this time around. Unfortauntely, my project team members have all moved on to other projects, so this game is frozen in time from a development point of view.

I'll take on board your feedback for future games.  Because the graphical user interface was all custom made, and we only had 2 months for game development, we only tested the "visual" interaction with the main menu and not the "self voicing" component. For future, I'll ensure all components are appropriately named to enable self voicing to find the text and read it out loud.  I'll incorporate self voicing testing to ensure accessibility for my future games.

Would you consider other otome games that may better meet your needs?  https://itch.io/jam/otome-jam-2023/entries

Thank you so much for taking the time to feedback.  

Wishing you a wonderful day ahead.

Kind regards,

LIla

Wow, this demo blew me away. Launches straight in and awesome. The art, character development and story hooked me.  Props to ConcreteParasite game dev, brilliant work.  Shout out to Zack Valence for voice acting and sound. You guys are a great team. Looking forward to your next release.  

Saddle up indeed. This game is so awesome. Love the story, writing, dialogue. The western cowboy setting and pacing is wicked good. The choices were extremely user friendly with hints. Adored all the art - Boo's character sprites and CG's were delightful, including his adorable blush!  I'm roped in and deeply satisfied. Well done!  

Wow, Kiga, love your game. The story and writing has great pace and tension, given the character's (ahem) professions. Love all the art with changing sprites, clever programming with cutscenes - panning and zooming out. Also I had no idea that text within a textbox could move like that - heartbeat words came alive like a real heartbeat, even whimpering. Omg, so good.  You've made this look seamless, but I know how much heart and soul has gone into this.  Can't wait to see more!  Bravo!  

Wow, Sylla. This demo is awesome. The whole she-bang with writing, cocky dialogue, your art style, music, sfx, even programming with the zooming and panning.  Seriously, I'm hooked.  Rock on and keep up the great work!  

Wow, erotic 18+ Horror for the win. There's a lot that's wonderful about Sunny Day Jack - the voice acting is superb, writing on point, art took some getting used to, but I'm now a fan. Yes, yes, yes!  

Wicked clever programming and game mechanic. Love the sprite expressions. For such a short game with restrictions, you really packed a punch. Super impressive.  Thanks so much!  

Aw, that ended way too quickly. Understandable due to being a demo and all. Super sweet characters and art. I'm a big fan of Dungeons and Dragons (D&D), so this brought back cool memories for me.  Well done!

Absolutely brilliant. The art is so awesome - not just one fixed sprite, but multiple sprites per character and blinking animation too - wow, just wow.  Brilliant writing, story and choices. Rocking sound track.  Well done team!  

Loved this so much!  Fave was Theo - with him being happy where he is and how dedicated he is with family, adore him.  Yes, brilliant touch with greyed out menu art that gains colour with their good endings - bravo!  Fave moment - loved all choices, the CG moments and programming side panning and full size view of CG was lovely interlude to gameplay.  Well done to Centibel for sprite and CG art - lovely!  Very cool writing and choices - especially in real life with the bar, as well as via dating app. The scope and choices are so wonderful.  Well done on a brilliant game!  

Aw, adorable. Chose Kujo first and was pleasantly surprised. Beautiful writing, art, music. Wonderful! 

OMG, this game is amazing. If you're in the mood for romance and you love massive multiplayer online games (MMO), this is perfection.  The voice acting is superb. Love the character sprite art. The story and writing is on point. Bless you for the hints, I probably relied on them too much, ha ha ha. Only played Chris's route so far, but absolutely loved it and what a ride.  I'm already excited for Nathan and PossiblyImpossible too.  Well done!

Absolutely loved this! The writing and story pacing is on point. Love the MC and applaud her excuses for bring different. Love interest wise, I want to turn Lewis's frown upside down, and pinch Cedric's cheeks. The art is gorgeous from sprites to backgrounds. Bravo! 

Super sexy. Loved it! The scene with Tom was superb. Looking forward to future releases!

Gorgeous art.  Spoilt for choice with many love interests. Awesome MC and best friend. Love the story premise and writing. Well done!  

Aw Gabe is a sweetheart. MC rocks.  Awesome writing and story premise. Beautiful art.  

Xenos is hot. Love the CG art. Quite enjoyed the writing with soulbind spell. Well done!

Wow, blown away by how awesome Heart Cage is.  All yandere love interests, huh? Oh man, all three of detective Luke, landlord Dane, supposed chemist Enox, are super hot. If you had to twist my arm, I'd try Luke first, but they are all intriguing. 

Love the spicy computer graphic art, as well as the writing with romance, mystery and how each love interest is so unique. Rock on with the music by Asurababy, Hong Kong indie metal band with those original theme songs. Thrilled your Kickstarter was successfully funded.  Even sweeter that both G# and Sid's routes unlocked too.  Simply cannot wait for more updates.  Bravo. 

Dear Yourkhaleesi,

Wow! Thanks for your positive feedback. I'm so happy you enjoyed playing Nuts - A Dark Romance game, specifically Red the Squirrel route. Despite him as the bad boy villain, he was a delight to write, his art is just amazing, and the voice actor for this character is incredibly talented.  
Sharing some fan art as a token of my appreciation for your time and making my day.
Kind regards
Lila
