С первых минут игра уже подкидывает юмора и отсылок. Первые впечатления хорошие. Столкнулся с багом: когда впервые взял телефон по сюжету и решил зайти в календарь. Андроид версия 2.1
Наличие множества переводов от самого разработчика - огромный плюс, это радует. Но мне интересно возможно ли кому-нибудь внедрить ИИ-переводчик в игру. Так абсолютно каждый смог бы опробовать продукт. И новый контент также сразу бы переводился
Большое спасибо, рад, что вам нравится! Я в курсе ошибки с календарем, и она будет исправлена в версии 0.3! Также в одном из будущих обновлений добавлю некоторые языки с ИИ/машинным переводом.
Among the visual novels game that i played this one is my favourite. i really love the storry telling and the animation was pretty detailed, can't wait to play the next update....uhmm is there a way to keep my gameplay so i won't lost it for future update?
Thank you very much! :D Happy to hear, if you don't format your pc or phone, the save files shouldn't be deleted and if you download a new version will be possible to load a save like it was from Chapter 1 to 2.
first time playing this game and i have to say i like where the story's going so far. there are some very nice looking animations, too. keep it coming. please. :)
Omg yes finally I found this game again after playing it a few months ago I for got to follow you and then I lost it so has there been any major updates these past few months??? Also this is like one of the best games I've played on here the story is just amazing keep up the good work
Happy to have you back and thank you very much! :D There haven't been any major updates, the next update is around the corner though. I just tend to need time to craft something that'll look satisfying in my eyes.
Don't worry, there are no silly questions. I assume you're talking about the phones characters app? Your mouse cursor needs to be inside the characters area to scroll down. You also can scroll by dragging the characters up- or downwards, you also have a visual indication when you drag the screen (you can see it in the screenshot). :) Hope this helps!
now this is true AVN.. from story telling to humor, graphic quality and animation scenes, everything is perfect according to my kind of AVN taste.. cant wait for the next update and see what happens next!
Hey there, glad you like it! :D And thank you for the report! I'm aware of the calendar app crash, it's because I added the dates for every year manually and haven't added anything for 2025 (in-game 2030) yet. This won't be an issue in any upcoming versions and it'll be fixed for 0.3. :)
Wanted to say thanks for the great game. Found it on Oppaiman and I think its on its way of being up there with eternum or ripples. Keep up the awesome work
Hey there! That's not something I implemented, it would require me to rent a dedicated server just to push out those information, which is something possible for the future. Currently, you can follow me on patreon / subscribestar or itch to check out my regular development logs. I'll also make a release announcement post, as soon as I have a fixed time frame for the release! Hope that helps! :)
I am not much into these socials like patreon on this one, but so far as i can tell i actually like... devlog, the one on itch, its clear where we are at. Easy, so many Devs forgets about it and i really apreciate when someone keeps us informed on what going on and 'technically' how much more we have to wait.
But yeah, about game. Its interesting but I cant tell anything about story, its too early to say, why? Its pretty chaotic, we dont know like literally anything and half of this is not in mysterious way, just like you are lost, mc keeps to NOT asking questions we all want to ask, one look at place and done, almost not interested anymore. I mean, dont get me wrong, just you cant yet tell if its good or bad because i feel like after all these days my 'main quest' really moved on last scene. It has huge potential, so its interesting as I said in the beginning, but I cant really tell how will it go in further, like no idea, 0 predictions. it may sounds harsh but No, its good game just too early for commenting On story.
Graphics is cool, nothing i havent seen but if it works then its good.
Characters, as i am liking almost every character, though i think lucy is too much one-personality-girl if everything she says is shy-way it is well... like she is here only to fill shy-girl tag, and to say shy thing and nothing more, everyone can be shy but nobody says literally everything one way. Its not irritating, but definetely worth of look out. Healthy humans, have every emotions ;) some are stronger and thats fine but dont overdo
Overall i am actually interested in and i will definetely keep on touch with it. even if its chaotic i wanted to know more about story. Sorry if anything sounded too harsh;)
Hey there, glad you like my posts :). Story-wise, it's intended to make MC look lost. He's totally unsure on how to proceed, what happened with Lilith, what to do next after he didn't find anything in that side street, where to go now, everything is a bit overwhelming and he's supposed to get help or figure stuff out while his normal life continues. Hence why I solve this one issue relatively "early", you'll see in the new version.
Some people already seem to have a good idea on how the story will progress, others don't which I think is good. It shouldn't be too obvious, but also not completely mystical so nobody can assume where it goes.
Regarding the girls, glad they're appealing! I didn't go for 'tags', but to include some variation with a tendency to go for a pretty nice overall behavior, to have some nice friends all around. Lucy is indeed a shy one, but that opens possibilities for growth in the future. Amber seems like a nymphomaniac but that opens the possibilities for growth in another way as well. Time will tell, I've all planned already.
Don't worry, criticism is always welcoming! Even I don't see every aspect and might even overlook certain things. Hence why I appreciate it, when people have legit criticism and not just vote a game down because for no reason, this doesn't help at all! :D
about MC being lost i have biggest issue with him not checking anything, testing himself or his own health (though I like that slowly changing his issues with thinking about her name)
And he sometimes has weird prio, ~i might be called out to Pay for 69 years while one hour is 20$? Lets go to school :D and just think about it for one second from while to while - i would be waiting for that report to be done while shitting my own pants ;d
.And question not being asked like wondering all about that lilith and then bah No lucy No saying any info. Wondering why nobody is worried about her? well imma go sleep :-D
Though I must add that i liked small details, backgrounds, that here are any actuall people except main characters, and they even move(!) details like we can see through window sis entering home. I didnt mentioned it before but its admirable, i love small details <3
Hey, thanks for the reply! If MC would check everything, he'd be perfect and I don't want him to be perfect. He should look inexperienced, overwhelmed and a bit naive at the beginning. Naomi, the nurse, is telling him what to be expected after the accident and she has to know about it since she's the nurse in charge, right?
MC didn't pay for 69 years, in fact - it's unknown why this happens at all, if you play the game differently, there will be no mentioning of renting her for 69 years at all. ;D The bot has to report to the docking station for an upgrade though, so he also fears that they'll find out that he used her for free more than once (another fear to be found out).
He doesn't want to include Lucy in any potential trouble, I think that's to be expected from a guy like him. Could write another path for it, but I don't have enough variables at the current state to have a clear path forward on how he turns out at the end. What else should he do at the end? Not going to sleep? :D He even tries to think about Lilith at the end, but his brain starts to hurt as soon as the thought appears.
Just my two cents lol, anyway, glad you like the small details I included! I enjoy seeing the world live in the background and having other things , even small events, happening is kinda nice to see, imo. :)
Hey! Just place the contents of the .zip file in the main game folder, where the .exe file is located. If you're on android, you need to place the contents of the .zip file at this location: "Android/data/com.dbpanda.betweenhumanity/files/".
Wow, this is a great game so far! Looks amazing and has an interesting & well structured story, that allows for some great speculation on what will happen next. Congrats to DebatingPanda for what you've done so far!
Oof, that sounds like she's too hot for the phone! Just kidding, can you give me a screenshot of the error or tell me what exactly does the error say? Thank you! :)
it doesn't even give a code to it. i'm on an android laptop. it crashed when I first tried to check out Anya so I skipped checking her out and it let me continue but then when you see her in the shower it crashed again and wont go passed.
Oh, gotcha! The Anya checking out and the Girl in the shower (it's Jane, not Anya :D) those two are animations which have a newer but less supported video codec (don't bother with it in detail). It has been fixed for 0.3, but unfortunately there is nothing I can do right now! Thank you for reminding me of it, if you can't continue, please bear with me and try it with 0.3 again! :/
It's strange but I actually face a problem that, though I could download the game file, I just got a "403 forbidden" when I was trying downloading the "CHINESE translation" and the "Walkthrough-Mod". So I wander if there was any other external channel to reach those two files?
I'm pretty conflicted about this game to be honest. The characters are likeable and there seems to be a pretty well-thought-out and cohesive storyline here, but I really can't get over the amount of AI art sprinkled throughout the game. I get that a dislike of AI is a more personal gripe, but seeing it in the phone backgrounds, the news broadcasts, and all the images on the TV is just super distracting. My hope is that it's all placeholder assets that'll get replaced someday but it's hard for me to enjoy the game with unsettling AI slop being so ingrained as a part of it.
Hey, thank you! I already removed the phone background image. I might have to take some bucks and have all images make by professionals, but that's something that's on my to-do list for later. This is the cheapest option I had, especially for the 0.1 version of the game!
Unsure how I'd get good looking Pandalorian images though, definitely would cost me too much for the current budget. But I'll keep it in mind!
Salut ! Tu dois télécharger la traduction française depuis itch, puis utiliser une application pour naviguer dans les fichiers. Ensuite, suis les instructions dans le fichier readme.txt contenu dans le .zip ! J'espère que ça t'aidera !
Omfg that was SO GOOD! This might be the best +18 game I've ever played, being able to change the text size, the cutscenes, the charismatic characters, the decisions, even the animations, background details and secrets are SO GOOD. I loved it and I'm looking forward to the game's updates! The story also seems pretty interesting. I seriously love the details, like the date, characters' reaction to choices, wallpapers, stats at the end of the chapter, it's a GREAT GAME.
Edit; woah is this your first game? It was so cool I wanted to check more from you, but couldn't find any :O
Thank you so much =D! Happy to hear that you enjoyed the small details I put in. It is indeed my first game. I just implement what I personally did enjoy the most in other games, like living backgrounds and small movements while you talk to characters, makes everything feel more alive and natural. Only drawback, it takes some time to prepare everything but I'm working on it! Have a great Christmas time! :)
This is fantastic work so far. Especially the models and sex scenes... Legitimately great work. First time I've been extremely looking forward to more from this style of game, I can't wait. That cliff hanger caught me off guard super good!
Note: This is just my perspective, take it with whatever grains of salt you prefer.
So far, BH is fairly linear (something I hope changes in future builds). That said, it is not what I consider "standard fair". The implied story playing out in the background events seems consistent with the MC's "mystery" events. Keeping eyes on the background helped keep me invested in what I originally assumed was a benign story. As the story progressed, the two intermingled.
A few "cons" of note (at least from my view, your mileage may vary). "SPOILERS" (Um yeah, I don't actually care but hey, no reason to ruin it for others I guess)
1) Lucy and the cab driver comes off a bit "NTR"- The behavior and rather vague dialog interaction feels like Lucy's paying the cabbie. Add the "bug?" that Lucy gets in the cab with "leggings" and leaves with no leggings....
2) The "hidden" clickables are nice but as the intro states, it's a pain to click literally every pixel just to get the hiddens.
3) There are plenty of points where I absolutely wanted to break out of the storyline to check a background event or talk to a character. Of the few constant frustrations (mild but there) was seeing something happening and not being able to interact or see a character who may have information that would clarify an event and not being able to talk. This is especially true of the "phone". I am hoping in future updates either the linear story will incorporate the logical/practical inclusion of events and characters in "real-time" or allow the MC to interact through multiple choices to background events or characters.
The "pro" (again, "Spoilers" because some people need everything spelled out {"Well preacher, anyone ever tell you there are TWO KNOBS on the radio?!!" - George Carlin})
Solid mystery game. I see a lot of potential that may or may not prove to be a great end-game story. Looking forward to Chapt 3 to see if a few things I have theories about come close (and how wrong I was!)
Dev's sense of both style and substance seems pretty on point, throw in the humour and you've got me sold. Dystopian settings with a sense of humour are so hard to find so I'll hang on to this one as long I get a chuckle.
Thanks for the very detailed review! :D Yes, BH has to be somewhat linear, it's just not possible for a one man development "team" to get enough content in a short amount of time without people questioning the existence and also getting support while working full-time beside it... It's just not possible for me.
1) You really had me checking the leggings... but as far as I can tell, she is definitely wearing them. You look at her legs and they're quite bright, due to the sun shining on them, but they're there. Also Lucy and NTR?! Holy moly, that's the last I would think of, when thinking about Lucy. :D
2) Yes, the hidden clickables are kind of difficult, I agree, but they're not at random pixels, they have their points, if you manage to see something.
3) I totally feel it, would love to make it a 3d game, lol. But I have to make sacrifices, I could fill the game with lots and lots of minor details, but then people would even be less engaged since it's under the premise of an adult visual novel, so most people expect h-scenes and not random background events, unfortunately. Since those background events take time, it would take too long to build them beside the normal story. I agree on the phone, I should make more use of it, I don't play to introduce a sandbox mode currently though.
For the pros, thanks! :D I try to get some chuckles out of the player while still maintaining a serious storyline.
1) The Lucy leggings may just be my brightness/resolution/etc, so it's understandable if it's all on my end. As for the "NTR", chalk it up to that "something feels off, what am I missing" feeling that the story gives me, like I know there's a whole mystery and I'm questioning everything trying to piece clues together ahead of the story.
2) When you release Chapt. 3 I'll go back and see if I can "connect the dots" on the hiddens and look for a pattern. Admittedly, dividing my attention between story, background, and clickables is not my "forte`" lol
3) I get it. I've watched enough devs bite off more than they can chew trying to change things up so I don't dog them too much about my preferences. All I meant was having a bit more choice selection when events or people would be the obvious "go-to". Sort of like the alley scene *cough: spoilers* where clearly there were some things that were going on but.....
You're doing great though, I'm invested! Looking forward to seeing if a few theories I have play out :)
You're welcome and thank you too! :) Lucys leggings is definitely there, no worries. There won't be any NTR in my game, that's not something I want to implement.
I don't want to make the secret clickables to obvious, more like "accidental clicks reveal something interesting" or the player saw something and be like "wtf, did I see over there".
Yes, I would like to make multiple deep branches, but at the moment, it's not something I can invest time into, simple stories seem to be more attractive.

希望0.3遊戲加入中文選項🥲
有中文语言包可以在Itch.io下载，里面附有 readme.txt，包含安装说明！
Great game with good Writing can't wait to see what comes in the next chapters
Thank you very much, happy to hear! :)
Прошёл я 2 твои главы. В целом задумка неплохая, но пока неясна общая концепция. Жду следующие главы
С первых минут игра уже подкидывает юмора и отсылок. Первые впечатления хорошие. Столкнулся с багом: когда впервые взял телефон по сюжету и решил зайти в календарь. Андроид версия 2.1
Наличие множества переводов от самого разработчика - огромный плюс, это радует. Но мне интересно возможно ли кому-нибудь внедрить ИИ-переводчик в игру. Так абсолютно каждый смог бы опробовать продукт. И новый контент также сразу бы переводился
Большое спасибо, рад, что вам нравится! Я в курсе ошибки с календарем, и она будет исправлена в версии 0.3! Также в одном из будущих обновлений добавлю некоторые языки с ИИ/машинным переводом.
ovo!!!
pls, can you add languge vietnamese!
Hey there, I'll add it to the list! :)
Hand -Holding!!?? How very naughty… 😈
[censored] is indeed very naughty, I don't know what came over me when I added it :D
Among the visual novels game that i played this one is my favourite. i really love the storry telling and the animation was pretty detailed, can't wait to play the next update....uhmm is there a way to keep my gameplay so i won't lost it for future update?

Ps I haven't played for like 3 months so yea
Happy to have you back and thank you very much! :D There haven't been any major updates, the next update is around the corner though. I just tend to need time to craft something that'll look satisfying in my eyes.
Yo ty for replying
I hope you best in life along with anyone who is working on this project also can't wait for the next update I bet it will be fire
Byeeeeeee
Thank you, likewise! :)
Probably a silly question - playing on my PC and I can't scroll down the characters, it stops at the end of one "screen". Suggestion?
Don't worry, there are no silly questions. I assume you're talking about the phones characters app? Your mouse cursor needs to be inside the characters area to scroll down. You also can scroll by dragging the characters up- or downwards, you also have a visual indication when you drag the screen (you can see it in the screenshot). :) Hope this helps!
中文版装完游戏闪退进不去呀
嘿！你能提供错误日志或其他信息吗？你是安装在安卓还是PC上？如果是在安卓上，“chinese”文件夹是在哪个目录？
我也遇到相同的問題，如果是手機的話就像作者所說是中文化文件夾位置錯誤。
原因可能是因為直接在 game/tl 解壓縮，造成中文模組多了一個文件夾在外層 錯誤長這樣： game/tl/chinese_0.2.1_v1/chinese。
只要將最後的名為chinese文件夾剪下或複製到tl文件夾之下就好了 正確： game/tl/chinese，記得刪除錯誤的chinese_0.2.1_v1文件夾以免發生未知的錯誤。
确实是这样！如果中文文件夹位置不对，游戏就会闪退。按照你的方法调整文件夹结构后应该就能正常运行了
好了好了
你好，手机安卓版的中文是怎么弄的，我下来翻译文件，试了很多次游戏中都没有中文这个选项。你能否演示给我看一遍！！谢谢！
你需要在手机上安装一个可以浏览文件系统的应用程序，不确定现在大多数手机是否默认提供。然后，你需要导航到 "Android/data/com.dbpanda.betweenhumanity/files/game/tl"（如果 "/game/tl" 文件夹不存在，请自行创建），并将 .zip 文件解压到该目录内。
在 0.3 版本发布后，我会尝试将语言直接包含在主游戏中
你能提前几个几个版本吗？毕竟这分开下，太难受了，并且非常的麻烦
Android/data/com。dbpanda.betweenhumanity/files/game/tl
这个是翻译的路径吗？
是的，这是正确的路径，你需要解压 .zip 文件的内容到里面。这样它应该看起来像这样：'Android/data/com。dbpanda.betweenhumanity/files/game/tl/chinese'
now this is true AVN.. from story telling to humor, graphic quality and animation scenes, everything is perfect according to my kind of AVN taste.. cant wait for the next update and see what happens next!
Thank you very much, happy to hear! =D
Good work
Thank you very much!
Game is really good so far! But did find the game crashed if I ever tried to open the Calendar app with:

Hey there, glad you like it! :D And thank you for the report! I'm aware of the calendar app crash, it's because I added the dates for every year manually and haven't added anything for 2025 (in-game 2030) yet. This won't be an issue in any upcoming versions and it'll be fixed for 0.3. :)
Wanted to say thanks for the great game. Found it on Oppaiman and I think its on its way of being up there with eternum or ripples. Keep up the awesome work
Thank you very much, happy to hear! :D
okie dokieeee🤪
Love that smiley 🤪
Is this game story completed
Hey there! Story is by far not completed, game has just two Chapters currently, overall story and everything will have many more.
how does one activate the walkthrough mod
Hey! Just make sure that the .rpyc file is inside the /game folder and it works automatically.
so i just extract the mod walkthrough than move to to the file named game? Does that work
Basically extract it into the folder "Between-Humanity-0.2.1-pc", the rest should automatically fit :)
righty o ill give it a whirl and if it dont work ill scream for ya haha
If you're on pc it should work just fine. Enjoy the game! :)
How do i turn on my notifications on this game? So, i am notified when there's a new update.
Hey there! That's not something I implemented, it would require me to rent a dedicated server just to push out those information, which is something possible for the future. Currently, you can follow me on patreon / subscribestar or itch to check out my regular development logs. I'll also make a release announcement post, as soon as I have a fixed time frame for the release! Hope that helps! :)
Looking really really good so far, I especially love the humor and can't wait to see more of this project in the future!
Show post...

What a great introduction. I am full of anticipation for future updates. If they share the quality of what we've seen so far then this will be a hit.
Thank you very much! :) I'm happy you liked it so far!
请问手机版的中文翻译怎么弄？
中文翻译的 .zip 文件内包含一个 readme.txt 文件，其中详细说明了如何在手机版上安装。请查看 readme.txt 以获取具体的安装步骤。
能出一个视频或图片教程吗？我搞不明白🥺
你需要在手机上安装一个可以浏览文件系统的应用程序，不确定现在大多数手机是否默认提供。然后，你需要导航到 "Android/data/com.dbpanda.betweenhumanity/files/game/tl"（如果 "/game/tl" 文件夹不存在，请自行创建），并将 .zip 文件解压到该目录内。

Just finished playing the game, damn this one of the best I've ever played. I'm waiting for the next update. Great work!
Thank you very much! Happy to hear =D
How to use the walkthrough mod?
Hey! Just place the contents of the .zip file in the main game folder, where the .exe file is located. If you're on android, you need to place the contents of the .zip file at this location: "Android/data/com.dbpanda.betweenhumanity/files/".

the game keeps crashing every time you almost see Anya naked on android
Oof, that sounds like she's too hot for the phone! Just kidding, can you give me a screenshot of the error or tell me what exactly does the error say? Thank you! :)
it doesn't even give a code to it. i'm on an android laptop. it crashed when I first tried to check out Anya so I skipped checking her out and it let me continue but then when you see her in the shower it crashed again and wont go passed.
Oh, gotcha! The Anya checking out and the Girl in the shower (it's Jane, not Anya :D) those two are animations which have a newer but less supported video codec (don't bother with it in detail). It has been fixed for 0.3, but unfortunately there is nothing I can do right now! Thank you for reminding me of it, if you can't continue, please bear with me and try it with 0.3 again! :/
alright thank you it seems great till then. I'll wait then,
Great game, the story got me intrigued, can't wait to see more!
Thank you very much! =) More is in the making!

Really enjoyed the game. Quite interesting story and the scenes were really well made. Can't wait for more<3
Thank you very much, glad you enjoyed it so far! <3
It's strange but I actually face a problem that, though I could download the game file, I just got a "403 forbidden" when I was trying downloading the "CHINESE translation" and the "Walkthrough-Mod". So I wander if there was any other external channel to reach those two files?
有人有中文补丁和攻略模组的其他下载方式吗？不知道为啥我这只能下游戏本体，小文件都下不了。
Hi! Interesting, they're on the itch.io servers as well, so they should work but I uploaded them here, try them:

Problems resolved, thanks for reply!
I'm pretty conflicted about this game to be honest. The characters are likeable and there seems to be a pretty well-thought-out and cohesive storyline here, but I really can't get over the amount of AI art sprinkled throughout the game. I get that a dislike of AI is a more personal gripe, but seeing it in the phone backgrounds, the news broadcasts, and all the images on the TV is just super distracting. My hope is that it's all placeholder assets that'll get replaced someday but it's hard for me to enjoy the game with unsettling AI slop being so ingrained as a part of it.
Hey, thank you! I already removed the phone background image. I might have to take some bucks and have all images make by professionals, but that's something that's on my to-do list for later. This is the cheapest option I had, especially for the 0.1 version of the game!
Unsure how I'd get good looking Pandalorian images though, definitely would cost me too much for the current budget. But I'll keep it in mind!
salut je suis sur android et je ne sais pas comment changer la langue en français de l'aide plz :)
Salut ! Tu dois télécharger la traduction française depuis itch, puis utiliser une application pour naviguer dans les fichiers. Ensuite, suis les instructions dans le fichier readme.txt contenu dans le .zip ! J'espère que ça t'aidera !
merci ça ma bien aider <3
De rien <3 :D

Omfg that was SO GOOD! This might be the best +18 game I've ever played, being able to change the text size, the cutscenes, the charismatic characters, the decisions, even the animations, background details and secrets are SO GOOD. I loved it and I'm looking forward to the game's updates! The story also seems pretty interesting. I seriously love the details, like the date, characters' reaction to choices, wallpapers, stats at the end of the chapter, it's a GREAT GAME.
Edit; woah is this your first game? It was so cool I wanted to check more from you, but couldn't find any :O
Thank you so much =D! Happy to hear that you enjoyed the small details I put in. It is indeed my first game. I just implement what I personally did enjoy the most in other games, like living backgrounds and small movements while you talk to characters, makes everything feel more alive and natural. Only drawback, it takes some time to prepare everything but I'm working on it! Have a great Christmas time! :)
Have a great Christmas you too! I'll wait excited for the updates ^^
This is fantastic work so far. Especially the models and sex scenes... Legitimately great work. First time I've been extremely looking forward to more from this style of game, I can't wait. That cliff hanger caught me off guard super good!
Thank you very much, happy to hear!
No thank you for your art and story! 🥲🩶
❤️
Note: This is just my perspective, take it with whatever grains of salt you prefer.
So far, BH is fairly linear (something I hope changes in future builds). That said, it is not what I consider "standard fair". The implied story playing out in the background events seems consistent with the MC's "mystery" events. Keeping eyes on the background helped keep me invested in what I originally assumed was a benign story. As the story progressed, the two intermingled.
A few "cons" of note (at least from my view, your mileage may vary). "SPOILERS" (Um yeah, I don't actually care but hey, no reason to ruin it for others I guess)
1) Lucy and the cab driver comes off a bit "NTR"- The behavior and rather vague dialog interaction feels like Lucy's paying the cabbie. Add the "bug?" that Lucy gets in the cab with "leggings" and leaves with no leggings....
2) The "hidden" clickables are nice but as the intro states, it's a pain to click literally every pixel just to get the hiddens.
3) There are plenty of points where I absolutely wanted to break out of the storyline to check a background event or talk to a character. Of the few constant frustrations (mild but there) was seeing something happening and not being able to interact or see a character who may have information that would clarify an event and not being able to talk. This is especially true of the "phone". I am hoping in future updates either the linear story will incorporate the logical/practical inclusion of events and characters in "real-time" or allow the MC to interact through multiple choices to background events or characters.
The "pro" (again, "Spoilers" because some people need everything spelled out {"Well preacher, anyone ever tell you there are TWO KNOBS on the radio?!!" - George Carlin})
Solid mystery game. I see a lot of potential that may or may not prove to be a great end-game story. Looking forward to Chapt 3 to see if a few things I have theories about come close (and how wrong I was!)
Dev's sense of both style and substance seems pretty on point, throw in the humour and you've got me sold. Dystopian settings with a sense of humour are so hard to find so I'll hang on to this one as long I get a chuckle.
Hi!
Thanks for the very detailed review! :D Yes, BH has to be somewhat linear, it's just not possible for a one man development "team" to get enough content in a short amount of time without people questioning the existence and also getting support while working full-time beside it... It's just not possible for me.
1) You really had me checking the leggings... but as far as I can tell, she is definitely wearing them. You look at her legs and they're quite bright, due to the sun shining on them, but they're there. Also Lucy and NTR?! Holy moly, that's the last I would think of, when thinking about Lucy. :D
2) Yes, the hidden clickables are kind of difficult, I agree, but they're not at random pixels, they have their points, if you manage to see something.
3) I totally feel it, would love to make it a 3d game, lol. But I have to make sacrifices, I could fill the game with lots and lots of minor details, but then people would even be less engaged since it's under the premise of an adult visual novel, so most people expect h-scenes and not random background events, unfortunately. Since those background events take time, it would take too long to build them beside the normal story.
I agree on the phone, I should make more use of it, I don't play to introduce a sandbox mode currently though.
For the pros, thanks! :D I try to get some chuckles out of the player while still maintaining a serious storyline.
Thanks for the reply!
1) The Lucy leggings may just be my brightness/resolution/etc, so it's understandable if it's all on my end. As for the "NTR", chalk it up to that "something feels off, what am I missing" feeling that the story gives me, like I know there's a whole mystery and I'm questioning everything trying to piece clues together ahead of the story.
2) When you release Chapt. 3 I'll go back and see if I can "connect the dots" on the hiddens and look for a pattern. Admittedly, dividing my attention between story, background, and clickables is not my "forte`" lol
3) I get it. I've watched enough devs bite off more than they can chew trying to change things up so I don't dog them too much about my preferences. All I meant was having a bit more choice selection when events or people would be the obvious "go-to". Sort of like the alley scene *cough: spoilers* where clearly there were some things that were going on but.....
You're doing great though, I'm invested! Looking forward to seeing if a few theories I have play out :)
You're welcome and thank you too! :) Lucys leggings is definitely there, no worries. There won't be any NTR in my game, that's not something I want to implement.
I don't want to make the secret clickables to obvious, more like "accidental clicks reveal something interesting" or the player saw something and be like "wtf, did I see over there".
Yes, I would like to make multiple deep branches, but at the moment, it's not something I can invest time into, simple stories seem to be more attractive.
You cliff hanging son of a B
(Just kidding this is amazing and I can't wait for more!)
Hehe, thank you! :D
