[h1]Review with accompanying screenshots and video at Sinical Network[/h1] https://www.sinicalanimenetwork.com/post/2020/04/27/sunflower-review This is a neutral review for the following reasons below. I also recently received this game for free from korytoombs. [i]Sunflower[/i] is the sequel to Kory Toombs's earlier visual novel [i]LVN Fake News[/i], and is a kinetic visual novel that includes adult yuri content. We continue the original story focusing on Alina as the protagonist this time directly after the events from [i]LVN Fake News[/i]. Alina happened upon a church amid a sunflower field near her home one day, and thought she saw Lidiya. Despite Lidiya's earlier actions against LVN News Program (which nearly got the broadcasting station shut down), Alina decided to try to know Lidiya better because she had gradually built up an attraction to her. This title retains the charming light-hearted background music by Bittersweet Entertainment from the first game. It keeps the charm and humour in the daily broadcast segments at LVN News Program and adds a bit of adult humour when two supporting characters read a parody comic series called Captain Yuri. There is also an emotional segment in the game when Lidiya recounts her past which helped to provided a variety of feelings throughout the game. The artwork is made by a different artist this time, and for an adult visual novel, I feel the artwork is a vast improvement over the anime style artwork in Kory Toombs's earlier visual novel. As another pro, this game does not require an uncensored patch. You can play the game fully unlocked upon purchase. Sadly, [i]Sunflower[/i] has a few noticeable cons. The first, and probably biggest con is that the novel suffers from a very short storyline, only lasting about an hour if read casually. The others are minor, but worth mentioning which include the inherent faults in the Visual Novel Maker software where it is not possible to scroll back or retrieve the message log history to check on dialogue that was skipped or clicked too quickly. This also prevents the ability to take and upload screenshots through Steam. In addition, I feel that in the only non-H CG in this visual novel, it failed to capture the rain that occurred in the scene, and showed a bright sunny weather instead. Although this isn't something that will bother everyone, it does break the immersion when the scene does not match up to the text. Overall, [i]Sunflower[/i] has a bit of humour, quality artwork, and charming light-hearted background music to attract interest for a sequel to the [i]LVN News[/i] series. However, the short length of this kinetic visual novel, predictable storyline, lack of Steam profile features, and current price ($4 at the time of this review) prevents me from recommending the game. If the game could expand further with an appropriately priced DLC or free update, or if the price becomes more attractive, I might be more comfortable with recommending the game in future.

[h1]Game-play[/h1] This is a virtual novel without decision making, so all you will need to do is read text. If reading a short-story does not appeal to you, then this is one of the worst games you could have clicked-on. [b]- How to Play -[/b] Left-click or hit the "enter" key to progress the story. Don't hit the "esc" key unless you want to instantly close the application. Then again, an "abort-everything" button should be a staple for all lewd games. Save often, and watch those fingers! [h1]Story[/h1] We first meet Alina, who retails a blissful time in her past as walks beside rows of sunflowers. As it turns out, she's [i]blissfully[/i] ignoring her role as a member of a news team. Ivana and Nadiya are at a loss without their traffic/weather reporter. But they continue to the broadcast (because they have to). There's a girl named Lidiya, who's a source of contention among the news crew. As a matter of fact, Ivana and Nadiya [i]strongly[/i] dislike her. With a passion. But Alina finds Lidiya very attractive, and she wants a piece of her. Problem being, Lidiya has done some serious wrong (which is later revealed) to Alina and her friends, but Alina is willing to forgive her. As Alina tries to seduce Lidiya, the story also follows a budding relationship between Ivana and Nadiya, whom bond over a a "magna" comic. It features a set of heroes, Yuri and Sub, whom [i]also[/i] engage in a romantic subplot. There's a lot of romance in this story. Even the sunflowers can't get away from the [i]overflowing[/i] romance this title has to offer! You'll. . . [i]see what I mean if you read far enough[/i]. [h1]Visuals[/h1] The user-interface is serviceable. It isn't fancy, but it gets the job done. It resembles any old, generic virtual novels' interface. I was hard-pressed to find an "options" pane, which you'd think should be readily accessable. You can save and load at any point, but you can only go forward in the story. If you miss some dialogue, well I hope you you've been saving. The character portraits look like decent anime-girl portraits.They aren't varied (beyond some basic changes of expression), so learn to like them. They appear to be the same portraits used in the Developers' other titles, so I'm awarding lazy-points. The full-art scenes are drawn by someone-else entirely, and are top-notch. If the rest of this title's assets were drawn by the artist behind the "CGs", then this virtual novel would have a very unique, high-budget style unknown to similar titles. It's too bad that there wasn't more full-art scenes, as I counted three. Only two were lewd, and only one contained sexual-content. I have a feeling that this artist was where the game's budget went. There's also no "gallery mode", so you have to replay the game to re-see the artwork. [h1]Verdict[/h1] I'm actually on the fence about this game. I didn't find the story to be terribly engaging, nor did I find the visuals to be anything but [i]standard[/i]. The full-art scenes were amazing, but few and far between. As a story, this game is [i]okay[/i]. As a lewd-title, this game fails. So think of this game as a romantic tale between (several) lovers, with a little bit of lewdness sprinkled in. Grab it while it goes on sale, and enjoy a few hours of content. [h1]Support the Wombat[/h1] If you enjoy my review(s), please follow my Curator page.

The question is, Would I buy this game If I Knew how long it was and the content that it has? the answer is NO. The game is a little long. that is due to the text scrolling takes a while, No way to speed up the text. the graphics are ok. The artwork is very repetitive about 10 or 15 f the same pictures (girls). Backgrounds are also very limited. The Adult part of the game about 7 pictures (nude girls). I have played better games with better everything in them and at a cheaper price. Thank you for reading.
[h1]보1지 보여줌. 꼭1지 보여줌. 전작인 LVN Fake News를 재활용한 창렬게임.[/h1] [b]그나마 추가된 CG의 보1지 디테일이 마음에 들어서 쓰레기라고는 하지 않겠음[/b] 게임에 등장하는 대부분의 CG는 전작 LVN Fake News것을 그대로 가져옴. 일부 CG가 추가되었는데 게임의 스탠딩CG와 같은게임이라 할 수 없을 정도로 그림체가 다름. 다른 CG작가가 기런것으로 보임. - 이는 전작 LVN Fake News도 동일했는데 스탠딩CG와 이벤트CG가 너무 동질성이 떨어졌음. 4400원에 성우도 없음. H씬에서 약간의 성우연기를 기대했건만 한번도 안나왔다. LVN Fake News와 비슷한 수준의 게임인 주제에 가격은 1100원이나 더 받아먹었음. 사실 LVN Fake News도 돈값한다고는 말 못하겠는데 이건 더 심함 - 창렬 [h1]누가 이 게임을 사겠다면 무조건 말리겠음. 아니 이 제작사 게임은 전부 사지마라.[/h1]
the only thing good about this visual novel is the artwork which there is only 5 pieces. so let me explain why this isn't worth much. first off the story felt so boring. 2. no gallery. no option to hide ui, no log, no options. while this may connect to another vn that kory did i think its missing the most basic features of a normal visual novel. if you miss something you can't go back. so you would need to go through the entire thing to the part you missed.
Pretty boring visual novel. The artwork wasn't even that good, the plot was worse. And why do all their names end with "a"?
This short story could've been cute, but it has too many small issues, and it's a classic death by thousand cuts for me. The writing is passable, most likely done by a non-native speaker. There are a couple annoying your/you're and similar misuses here and there. The story jumps around with little to no logical transitions between scenes, clumsily leading to one plot twist, but it kinda falls flat, and is quickly glossed over. You might be thinking, this is sold as an H kinetic novel, so literary qualities are secondary, right? And there's [i]technically[/i] one sex scene at the very end, but it's incredibly short (just a few sentences) and non-descriptive. Another huge issue is that the art sourced for the normal characters/backgrounds and H scenes are [i]very[/i] different in style, by two [i]very[/i] different artists and the character direction is [i]very[/i] mismatched, so it just comes out jarring. There's also a bonus "manga" on the side, but for some reason it's drawn like a normal western comic and flows left-to-right, which is unnecessarily confusing. Oh, and there's no actual plot or any sort of conclusion, just a bunch of random events happening. Yes, it's cheap on sale, but you can spend an hour of your life better by sleeping tbh.
Courte histoire mais qui profite d un scenario correct et de graphismes corrects egalement . Entierement en anglais et interdit aux moins de 18 ans Comptez 30 minutes pour lire la nouvelle en entier , il n y a aucun choix . interet : 11/20 realisation : 11/20
Literally one of the dullest visual novels I've ever forced myself to finish
Short and boring. It's hard to say something more about this game. Even if you're here just for yuri - it's definitely not worth. [i]Check my Curator's page for more reviews: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/41437353-mnik%2527s-Experience/[/i]
