The character design is bland and terrible but that goes for any dating sim really. I wouldn't mind this if it wasn't for thumbcramps who's making it. She's an incredibly mean spirited person whos attitude should not be prized; but it's at 8k on 25k currently, so it looks like it's gonna make it. Sad
 
Drawing porn guarantees you views.

As long as you don't think about what kind of degenerate is fapping to your work in a dark room, you can walk away patting yourself on the back for being a popular and admired progressive artist whose work is changing the world for the better, because look at all these "likes".

So, you are playing a fat loveable, quirky, chubby, and eyeless lady of colour, and camel toe. And you can date your super diverse colleagues. Knowing the club of confused young ladies, I would bet, that most of them will date the white guy, who has "mysterious douche canoe" written all over him. And who most likely will turn out to be a transman. For inklusiveness!!

>MC is a nameless faceless obese nobody with no personality
>Rest of the cast is almost entirely built cute anime pretty boys with widely different (and boring) personalities

I think the creator watches too many otome series
 
  • Agree
Reactions: Discobiscuits
Isn't the MC of a dating sim supposed to be pretty so you can feel like you're pretty too? I don't want to feel like a badly drawn fat Amethyst from steven universe :(
Because tumblrinas are all about playing as characters that look like them and you can bet 90% of the people who are going to play this are going to be over a hundred and eighty pounds.

Also, what the fuck do they need 25k for? Dating sims are super easy to make
Methinks I smell a scam.

It took me a while to realize that was a person. And then an even longer while to realize that was a dick.

The fucking eyelashes are making me lose my mind... The complete lack of anatomy and effort, though, is just making me sad. What even is that coming from the inner corners of the last one's eyes?

http://clown-cummies.tumblr.com/post/159281000378/commissions-are-open-all-the-info-and-guild ( also http://archive.is/c5VUX ) This person's willing to draw femboys getting gang raped if you look in her art tag, but dd/lg and whatever she considers transphobia is out of line... Also, I'm feeling some real tearzah vibes. Why do people with this kind of art style always draw porn? It's like the worst style for that.

At least she's not asking for money. Also "clown-cummies"
yep, i have to agree, the tearzah vibe is strong af with this fella.
those commission notes are weird, tho.

:powerlevel::autism: Dating Sims are one of my guilty pleasures. Let me explain to you why this one is barely worth an eyeroll.
  • There should always be an uneven number of dating choices. It forces the player to have to take into account the relationships between them a little more seriously. Plus, more characters to enjoy.
  • If you're going to make a customisable MC, use two variants rather than just one (race, as seen here). Even if they wanted to keep a fat MC, they could have another offer for the player such as hair colour or an accessory.
  • Setting: While workplace romance can be played out well, you'll need a skilled writer to actually make it work. You need an even more skilled writer when it comes to dating sims where you need to plan everything out yourself. Also an ice cream shop? It's on the same level of pure uwu soft cute shit as Tumblr's overhyped and unoriginal coffeeshop AUs.
  • While the only marketabe point being diversity is something that applies to every type of media, it's also valid here. Even if the player has a favourite, they'll enjoy actualy having a choice and putting characters into precise tropes (or in this case, race/gender boxes) will cut down the choices.
  • The art is all too reminiscent of Steven Universe. If you're going to make money off something, don't copy an existing license's graphic style.

Knowing the club of confused young ladies, I would bet, that most of them will date the white guy, who has "mysterious douche canoe" written all over him. And who most likely will turn out to be a transman. For inklusiveness!!
You know you nailed it. You nailed it so hard. They're gonna go for the hot white guy who's a douche and the moment they'll feel guilty for being straight and racist BAM he's trans so you don't have to fee guilty anymore bb uwu

Also characters like Jamie always feel weird to me. Not because of his one-dimensional personality trait but the fact that he seems to be a non-binary male.
Idk man 90% of 'NB people' tend to be girls trying to be special, especially in the demographic this dating sim is aiming for.

If I can end this on a positive note, Malik looks like a friendly character and I kinda like him- Then again, 'big friendly bear-like black guy' is a fun trope to see in media. Now to wonder if the author/artist recognises its a trope or will defend that this characterisation is 1000% original and new.
 
The human character potraits of this game fall into bland character design too. Hatoful is only known for having pidges and being played by dumb youtubers. It's a polished dating sim though, I'll give it that.
See, Hatoful boyfriend knew what the hell it was: a stupid, joke-y dating sim that no one would ever take seriously but would send to their friends in a "look at this shit" kind of way.

On another note, out of curiosity, I googled "sjw art" just to see what the top results would be and

First two results are Osomatsu crap and Rory. Outstanding.
