discussion Game Recommendations & Identification

[banabad0912]

We really need more details, what engine is it? I assume it's ren'py, is it a sandbox game or a VN? Any tags that you might remember? Is it completed or abandoned?

 

[KantamaroSan]

even art style would help here, 2D or 3D, did it look manga-ish/japanese in style or more western, ...
as the other people have said, more details please

 

[elmano]

engine - [Ren'Py]
3d modeling.
VN - selections with no real impact on the plot (in 90% of cases).

the character model resembles the main character from: The Hard Way

Desert stalker and hot sands

 

[banabad0912]

Mist is my favourite so far, but seeing as a lot of people are recommending Desert Stalker I'll probably try it.

A pity - the talented dev got very sick/hospitalized. Fun fact, it's one of only a few games with the cum-on-food fetish.

There are quite a few Japanese games featuring that, but not a lot of them get translated I suppose.

There also a prominent side char (MC's sister) in The Guardian.

 

[hazard999]

Great list!
Any link for UFO? Or is it in the game+ area?
I liked it but I can't find it in this forum...

I think it has shota tag and is therefore game+.

 

[nsanpretslet]

Such a Sharp Pain, by far!

 

[cekla]

DeadMoon Survival and Hot Sand of Antarctica, but I think now I will try also the Desert Stalker.

 

[idkwhattoput123]

Desert stalker is a really popular game for a reason! Everyone's gotta play that game at some point,

 

[SennaLv11]

I'd appreciate post-apocalyptic games that don't focus entirely on desert wastelands. It's not like nature can't reclaim the ruins of civilization. Having overgrown buildings, half-sunken cities and wildlife rebounding after humans are largely out of the picture is something authors almost completely sleep on.

You are definitely right. I guess I do this weird compartmentalizing thing where I divide Japanese games (translated or not) from Western games. I also don't tend to play the Japanese games as much, but that's probably an oversight on my part as I'm sure there are a lot of gems.

It should be here regular, or on the site that we dare not speak of.

Thanks, yeah I found it and will probably start it up this weekend. Can't wait to unlock Member+ so I can update some of my old files I use to play here.

I think sandbox games can be enjoyable, but the gameplay loop has to be fun or not unreasonably grindy

 

[RJErwin]

a waste of time, grinding an hour for one scene? yeah not worth it, i want to play a game not another job.

 

[Salty Harley]

Stardew Valley.

 

[Salty Harley]

The Twist. You have to waste about 10 years of your life to see at least some boobs.

 

[MattShizzle]

That granny (or great granny) one that came out the other day.

 

[M0rfi]

Creeper world. And that's not a porn game

sounds like minecraft map xdd
but looks cool
