Oh.. That's a shame but i think that's appealing in its own little way too, thank you for replying. I have to ask, have you done any previous projects or is this your first? I'd love to check out your other work even if it's not Yaoi related.. though i sure hope it is.. I mean i usually go for yaoi games for the Ecchi stuff @w@ but when playing the demo i was actually enchanted by the story and was simply curious to know what was going to happen so if you have ANY other projects, please let me know thank you!
Viewing post in 1st Degree: Murder-Mystery BL/Yaoi VN [UPDATED DEMO] comments
We wanted to make 1st Degree story-based rather than exclusively fan service, which is why the story may appeal to some but not to others. It may not be as player-personality manufactured as some games since our little psycho has a pretty strong personality compared to a lot of other protags, but we are hoping people will enjoy the role of Maestro of Rei's life.
We are planning side stories/additional dates which will be more lighthearted for those who can't exactly handle the gore or just skip over it entirely. These will be released a little after the full game is complete.
This is our first project so we are learning as we go! Though we do post updates, our last devlog explained the reason for update delays, so please check it out if you're curious for the lack of activity!
We're glad the story interests you since it is such a niche genre, particularly with the inclusion of Yaoi! But don't worry, the game is r18+ after all, so there has to be some good to come from progressing through the gore and science~
The only thing i'm looking forward to in my whole life right now is sitting in a public setting with a scary-looking detective with bunny ears on. That being said, you've done a great job appealing the game for its story and what's really amazing is the fact that while the story is overperforming, the art and text are great as well It's really rare to see this kind of quality from a first project. Regardless of how this project goes (Though it's almost certain to be a massive hit), please keep on making projects. I understand you're also a University student with a busy schedule but it's a shame to let the developing team's talents go to waste, i'll stop wasting your time with unnecessary comments like these but I'm so incredibly hyped up about this which rarely ever happens to me and so I'm overreacting. Thank you for keeping up with me and I'll be sure to read progress updates whenever they're available x)~
