Game actually has some good promise! Needs animations since that is the main appeal, but the concept is good and it's fun trying all the options. Keep working on this.

Pretty good game, but the NSFW content only being in the game-over screen is an issue. I played the first 5 rounds of the demo perfectly and thought maybe it didn't have any - I would suggest adding all the cut-scenes in the menu as a bonus for completing the game. I spent too long experimenting with game overs to see if there were more than 1.
This game actually has really good pixel art in terms of the "Scenes" and the background art, it'sl is definitely the game's main strength and the artist clearly practice, well done in this arena, keep practicing and creating the art! The animation isn't bad too.
My main criticism is unfortunately the gameplay as it's pretty boring, clunky platforming and walking back and forth doing monotonous tasks over and over. When it said I needed 10 wood from chopped trees, I almost quit playing because even doing the wood-chopping task 3 times prior for the other mission was tedious, so 10 really pushed it and I'm surprised I did it, but the pixel art is good so I wanted to progress.. The "climbing training" was kind of fun since it made me figure out how I could glitch the platforming, but other than that the other platforming scenarios were frustrating. Building the town was cool and I think this should be expanded upon, as long as it didn't require all the tedious gathering. I think new gameplay elements/mechanics need to be introduced in order for this to be more fun. Also the main character sprite in the overworld needs to better-represent his portrait. Still, the pixel art is amazing, I look forward to seeing how this game develops!
