Meowphoria

Fun, [i]not-actually-hentai[/i] satire game. The humor and writing for this game are my style. Note for the Dev: The cat girl harem concept makes the game sound like it could be an adult, hentai game rather than satire. The store page should be more explicit about what to expect. That should make people on either side of the divide happier.

I wanted to try and look past this game's faults and just couldn't. The character art is solid, but you get to see it so rarely. As near as I can tell, there's no way to view the art for the catgirls you've recruited after having recruited them. You have a status screen where you can set them to be the girl(s) you summon for assistance in the methods they can provide it, but you don't see their character art on that screen, only their sprite. Even as a game with no nudity or H scenes, being able to view the character art is something your player wants to be able to do, especially in a game about collecting (cat)girls for your harem. The movement and combat are some of the jankiest by far of any game that I've ever played. You cannot swing your weapon in the first few frames of jumping and swings are singular entities, not part of any combo attack if you're repeatedly pressing the attack button. I'm okay with that second note, as it lends a feeling of weight and commitment to the attack, but even early enemies take 5-10 attacks to kill and, at just over one attack per second, it was more worth my time to just avoid them, ignoring whatever resource they awarded on kill. There are a lot of "gotcha!" moments in the platforming as well that feel at home in a "I Wanna Be the Guy" clone that don't feel organic to discover and avoid at all in this game. Finally, the translation is terrible. For a game so heavy on dialog, the developer(s) should have enlisted the assistance of a native English speaker for the translation as some conversations in the first couple of hours are nonsensical. Character names are inconsistent even in the same dialog box, with a character named "VolT" referring to herself in one sentence as "VolT" and the next as "Volti". This happens with other characters as well. I came into this expecting something akin to Thousand Arms but as a Metroidvania. This is not that and, while I can appreciate what they were going for, it needs more work before I can consider it a good buy even on sale.

The game opens with a defeated developer reflecting on his previous title—one that garnered little attention and even fewer reviews. It’s a personal moment, because it mirrors the real-life experience of the creator. But instead of going back to improve the failed project, the dev spirals into a fantasy filled with magic, crystals, and, of course, catgirls. What starts as a daydream quickly becomes something more when a glowing portal appears in his room, sucking him into the world of his own imagination. In this strange new land, God gives you a mission: destroy special crystals to stop a dragon that’s been draining mana from the world. Each crystal is heavily protected or requires a new ability to access. But you won’t be doing this for nothing because you get a single wish. Naturally, you waste it on a harem of magical catgirls. But nothing comes easy because you must explore the world, meet these catgirls, and, crucially, ask for their permission to join your team. The dialogue leans hard into humor, with choices that actually matter. Many of the catgirls are completely optional, and if you miss the chance to recruit one, there’s no second opportunity—at least as far as I know. I ran into several that offered to join, but after choosing the wrong response, they stopped talking to me. However, you still won’t be alone because a few join as you progress thought the game. Catgirls serve as summonable companions with distinct abilities. You assign them to slots: starting with two, later upgradable to four. Pressing the summon button teleports all active catgirls to your side. They’ll follow you and boost you with unique perks. For example, one boosts your movement speed while another shoots arrows at enemies. Though they have health bars and can die temporarily, they come back quickly after a cooldown or instantly upon transitioning between screens. You can explore the world in both directions from the starting point. Controls are limited to jump, attack, and left and right. The game world is divided into discrete screens of varying size, populated with platforms, pitfalls, and roaming enemies. There are light metroidvania elements: defeating bosses unlocks new powers, and you’ll find treasure chests with money and crystals, collectible coins, and even destructible hidden walls. The game includes one collectible type, special coins, which lead to unlocking a free catgirl. There’s also a side quest involving lost items scattered across the map. It’s supposed to reward you with a damage-boosting hat, but it’s currently bugged: it finished before I gathered all items and gave me a hat that boosts damage. If you die, the hat vanishes and the quest giver stops responding. Coins are used to buy upgrades at shops and from a map merchant. The map starts extremely basic, filling in as you explore. You can buy upgrades to improve it, such as marking important spots and catgirls, but money is slow to come by. Crystals, on the other hand, are spent at pedestals that grant increased running speed or extra hearts. In many ways, the gameplay mirrors the developer’s earlier work. Enemies follow simple patterns. They move in straight lines until they hit something, then turn around or keep charging. Most just try to deal contact damage, which is frustrating due to your short attack range and the low knockback. Combat feels fast and unforgiving, but often skippable since enemies only drop mana. Mana is used to fuel the fast travel system, which is both helpful and annoyingly costly. You need to discover a portal first, and then pay a high price every time you want to teleport. If you’re low on mana or don’t want to waste it, backtracking becomes unavoidable. Enemy behavior depends on their abilities, some can jump, others can fly, and they can be killed by some environmental threats. This unpredictability makes them feel wild at times, as you can’t always anticipate their next move or whether they’ll perform some erratic action. Most of the danger, however, comes from the environment itself. Take water, for instance: while you can enter it, you’ll start taking damage within a few seconds. There’s no visual indicator, so you just have to guess how long you’ve got. Then there are fish that launch out of water with no warning, and the game’s worst offender, platforms with hidden spikes. These look like normal floating platforms until you land on them, at which point they reveal their deadly trap. Each hit removes one of your three starting hearts, and falling into a pit respawns you nearby. You can sometimes cut bushes for health, but often it’s quicker to let yourself die and come back with full hearts. In fact, dying comes with no consequences. You keep all your collected items, coins, and progress, and respawn exactly where you entered the current screen. This forgiving system offsets some of the more frustrating elements and even invites risk-taking, knowing you won’t lose much in the process. Surprisingly, bosses are not that difficult. The knight, the first boss, might seem like you’re going to have a lot of trouble, but that’s only because you have to fight it without any real abilities. Bosses might show up unexpectedly by exploring a normal-looking screen, but the game saves a few steps before the fight. In conclusion, like many games with metroidvania elements, they manage to fix some of design shortcomings with new abilities. First you’ll find the double-jump, then dash that also lets you squeeze through narrow spaces, and finally a wall-jump that lets you climb up any straight wall. Despite its flaws, some bugs, janky AI, and a few balance issues, the game has charm. It’s a passion project with a lot of self-awareness, humor, and a quirky mechanic involving catgirl recruitment that’s more engaging than it has any right to be. If you’re into oddball indie games, light exploration, and don’t mind a bit of jank for the sake of creativity, this one’s worth a look.

The year is 2025, players are overwhelmed by a glut of video games in practically every genre, and this doubly goes for the 2D Metroidvania genre. So what does Meowphoria offer that many of its competitors do not? Yes, that's correct. Catgirls. As one of a handful of games within the catgirl genre, you, the one reading this review, can consider yourself an investor in the potential of the catgirl genre. We've all seen advertisements asking us to donate to starving children in Africa, and many emphatic, bleeding hearts find themselves compelled to part with their hard-earned slave wages to ultimately fail to feed African children—and fail to teach starving African parents how to maintain the technology necessary to feed their starving children. However, consider the following: the developer is a starving Eastern European catgirl lover. By parting with your hard-earned wages, you'll receive approximately 4 hours of game featuring at least a dozen cute catgirls and later tuck yourself into bed and enter dreamland with feel-good feelings of having fed a starving developer of Eastern European descent. When has a starving African child—or any of these other human aid programmes—given you a catgirl in return for your generosity? Cuteness is Justice!

银河恶魔城游戏，平台跳跃元素比较多，猫娘立绘很好看，可以开后宫，收集多个猫娘。 地形颜色和陷阱融为一体，有点不好分辨。 操作方式和地下城一样，ZXC负责跳跃攻击和闪避之类。 新手教程不是很友好，很多都没教，都是靠自己怎么死来摸索前进。

幽默风趣的对话，偏恋爱约会的银河城玩法。有12位技能不一的猫娘可供玩家选择来陪伴进行探索，而且多结局剧情。妥妥的后宫模拟器元素和扣人心弦的剧情，但是战斗和设计的boss关卡也有一定的挑战性。需要合理运用各位猫娘的技能，才能轻松闯关。而且还有小量的跳跳乐陷阱，不过大可放心。初见杀的啦。算是有着中规中矩的银河城元素，中等的探索量，重点在于培养和发现猫娘的秘密？

[h1] 「♥Meowphoria♥」 [/h1] [h2] 「♥游戏介绍♥」 [/h2] Meowphoria是一款看似都是可爱猫娘的人畜无害的像素冒险游戏，实际上是一款用可爱猫娘来诱惑玩家来游玩的Iwanna模拟器，虽然玩家可以找到地图中的猫娘把她们收入后宫，但是这个过程可谓是草木皆兵，环境中隐藏着各种各样的陷阱和敌人，玩家还很脆弱，所以想要把猫娘收为后宫的路绝对不会非常轻松，需要玩家仔细探索地图解锁新能力，克服一个个陷阱才能找到猫娘的所在位置，将她们收入后宫，推荐给喜欢高难度和坑向冒险游戏的玩家游玩。 [h2] 「♥游戏内容♥」 [/h2] 游戏的剧情很简单，我们的男主幻想着每天都有猫娘老婆来陪着自己度过幸福的每一天，怀揣着这样的梦想，他成功的被召唤到了异世界，而这里也有猫娘老婆们，他为了收集这些猫娘们当做自己的后宫，毅然决然的踏上了冒险的旅途。 游戏的主要玩法采用了类银+I wanna？游戏中的会移动的敌人只不过是虚假的表象，他们都是战五渣，随便砍两刀就死了，而真正的敌人往往都杀人于无形，比如地上的草有时候会突然长高扎掉你一滴血，天上的刺如果你不勾引就会掉下来扎你，蹦蹦乐上方有刺儿等着你，宝箱开了秒变宝箱怪，路边的一个破石头你踩一脚他还翻个身拍你一下，游戏中的敌人可以说是无奇不有了。 游戏虽然看似坑很多，但是贴心的给了玩家3点生命值，不会让玩家碰一次机关就被秒杀，但是还是非常容易暴毙，一定要小心再小心，不然就会从关卡的入口重新开始，但是这个难度对于老Iwanna玩家来说还是不在话下的，尤其是解锁2段跳以后就觉醒了。 游戏中一共有12只猫娘可以邀请成为后宫，每只猫娘都有自己的立绘和像素图，立绘好看，像素图的动作也很流畅，质量还算可以。 [h2] 「♥总结♥」 [/h2] Meowphoria是一款稍微有点难度的像素冒险游戏，对于手残玩家来说可能有些困难，但是对于IW老玩家来说这点陷阱轻轻松松，而且猫娘们也非常可爱，推荐给喜欢猫娘和冒险游戏的玩家入手游玩。 [table][td]欢迎关注鉴赏家[url= https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45519015/]“无趣评测”[/url][/td][/table]

catgirls <33 mrrrp ~

Ну, слава кошкодевочкам!!! Игрушка показывает классический гарем главного героя, готовый решил взять себе скажем так... "Особенную" способность, которая будет доступна с самого начала. Геймплейно игрушка будет давать на вооружение клинок, которым мы будем сокрушать врагов и боссов. Помимо этого игра всё-таки метроидвания, так что иди куда хочешь, изучай мир, ну и собирай гарем из кошкодевочек и кошкодевушек. Графически игра сделана в пиксельной графике, которая что пару десятков лет назад, что сейчас, выглядит классно. Остальное рекомендую попробовать самим поиграть в игру и посмотреть что там к чему Мяу :3
