I can't see suggesting anyone spend money on this. The entire plot is a strung together series of jokes that - aside from not being funny - come across as predominantly hateful. The number of lines that are blatantly misogynistic, anti-disability, and referring to rape are legitimately troubling. The AI voices and multiple, several-minute-long AI songs are not only unnecessary and morally questionable, but are actively obnoxious. The prevalence of poor English and outright misspellings in the game text and dialogue (and Steam listing) shows the author didn't even bother to run the text through a spellcheck program before publishing the game - very unprofessional. It's like the developer is intentionally trolling anyone who chooses to play this, and expects you to pay for the displeasure. There's nothing here in gameplay or content that can be recommended.
It's kind of hard to figure out how to really describe this game. It looks like it'll be an RPG, but it's very firmly more of an adventure game. The writing is pretty good throughout the game, but it does become a bit tedious at times with how much dialogue there is that seems to go nowhere. Talking for the sake of talking. I think part of that is because of the character's personality and from a narrative standpoint it does make sense, but ultimately it doesn't feel super fruitful. I think it's because there are some areas of the game I didn't run into, so the payoff was missed. There's a lot of AI art and voice in the game, which is obviously going to have a bit of controversy to it. I'm not a real fan of the AI art, and honestly think the game could have done without it. The AI voices however were surprisingly good, and some of the songs were pretty humorous. The humor is certainly what kept me engaged in the game for most of the time. The game is full of jokes and satire from various forms of media. Most of the jokes land fairly well, some fall flat. I suppose it will all depend on your sense of humor. Overall though, I had a good time with it. So if you're looking for a comical adventure that will take around 2-3 hours to finish this is a great choice.
The developer posted about the game on a piracy subreddit, not my kind of game, just showing support.
I have played this game now. In fact, I played it on Stream. You can verify everything I claim if you so choose by checking the attached link to the stream archive. This game would be basically nothing without the AI, if all the AI had been removed very little would be left. I would say that there is no problem with this as I understand the dev is in a tough spot and could use the cash. However, the developer tries to pass this off as if it was a creative effort in showing the progression of technology and the future of creative endeavors. However, all he has effectively shown is that anyone who decides to take shortcuts in the development process will also lazily produce garbage. He has done nothing in proving his point that AI is the future, and in fact, he has only harmed his argument by showing that he cannot even proofread his text. Granted, he is not a native speaker of English, however, simple mistakes that even beginner English speakers are missed, such as misspelling of "of" as "ob" and "church" as "crurch". This only goes to show how lazy the developer is, thus why he felt like he needed to take short cuts in development. As far as the content of the game and what you do: Not much. It plays out more like a visual novel than any sort of RPG or puzzle game. You will be shepherded from scene to scene with very little input, while the AI voice acting flatly reads off each line. There were a couple of moments that got me to smile, but when you throw this many jokes at the wall, at least one little dingleberry is going to stick. It's mostly an assault of unfunny humor, that becomes even more unfunny because the dev then proceeds to explain the joke. The AI "musical numbers" are long, and obviously the dev got lazy - of course - where the first "musical number" actually had some effort into the actors doing stuff while the music played, the following musical numbers are just a slide show of AI generated images. The most disappointing part of this is that; we would hope that folks who lack self-awareness and have complete delusions of grandeur are the people most likely to make ironic bad content - you know, the trainwrecks that are so awful you can't help but keep watching. Unfortunately, this doesn't even fall into that camp. It never circles back around on itself being so bad its good. No, instead it falls into the worst place no piece of media should ever fall into: exceptionally boring. The most interesting part of the game is the discussion around the ethical use of AI, and whether selling an album full of AI generated music is a moral choice, or just further watering down the already saturated music market where legitimate musicians struggle to get paid for their work. The game itself, however, is worth skipping. In short: Gamedev: Uses ai to make game, still has typos. You can see the video and my discussion here: https://youtube.com/live/jeMIWz8RrJg?feature=share
I enjoyed the story, had me laughing a few times. There's tons of little references to various other games/anime as well so if you're a weeb you'll probably get a bit more out of it. Try to interact with everything.
Always love to see RPGMaker games, reminds me of some early 2000s classics. It's quite decent, but there's room for improvement: - There are many grammatical errors. - Occasionally there are some invisible walls. - The equipment categories are written in cyrillic (might be intentional, idk). - In some segments it feels like there is too much text and too little player input. Other than that, I think the game achieved what it set out to do, it's quite humourous and I had fun playing it.
I got the "black flag" edition first but I ending up buying it (it's not much money but I hope enough for cat food). The dev is honest and self-aware, but the game is not as bad and offensive as it sounds, you can tell there was a heart put into the writing and characters (and some obvious political satire). tl;dr the game is enjoyable, I'd play more games from the dev (pls take care)
Неплохая игра хоть и нет русского языка. Голос в песнях звучит на удивление неплохо хоть и сделан с помощью нейросетей. Забавное приключение на вечер.
I can confirm that the warning sign when starting the game is correct. I already was amused by the dialogs, but the songs are genius (a dragon singing opera?). Even if the sound is AI generated in the end, you need to have some spark of genius to think of the lyrics in a foreign language (also one character uses alliteratons with m as starting character in every dialog). I can't do it even in my native language. Normally I don't buy soundtracks, as they languish on my hard drive, but I still bought them here. The characters vary between one-dimensional and surprising depth, as required for the story. Ordinarily one would think that this mix hurts the storytelling, but here they actually combine to a greater whole. There are a number of references to the tropes of fantasy games and books, so to enjoy the parody to fullest you should be a fantasy fan in general. The game uses tropes or subverts them in the right moment, like resolving a confrontation, where you believe you get to fight an evil guy, just with dialog. Or fetch quests which can be both funny (like hunting for a right poster) and properly annoying. Even the player isn't exempted from being a direct target of the dev. I could list every scene I've seen, but if I do so, I can't play the game. ;) But even though it was over all enjoyable, it has some cons: The game needs a serious spellcheck. Even just extracting into Gdoc should get rid off 90% of the errors automatically. Considering that the voice tracks have only one of those errors actually spoken out loud, I believe there was some turnaround being missed. The shading of the active menu item is too light. You need close to optimal conditions to see it to keep you from guessing. Takes long time to get from one point where you can save to the next due to the long cut scenes. That wouldn't bother me, if ALT-Tabbing away and back wouldn't lead to a frozen screen sometimes. Think I've read that there is apparently a fix for that. Combat lacks some English translations. All in all I've clearly liked it, so some polish is missing. I would give it 4/5 stars in that state.
Увлекательная ролевая игра с забавным юмором и очаровательными персонажами, некоторые персонажи озвучены. Игра созданная с помощью RPGMaker, но сделана качественно. В игре есть отсылки и мемы, а также.. песни =)
