this might be a dumb thing to ask, but can you tell me if the game features routes with non-con, dub-con or abuse of any kind (including of the non-sexual variety)? it’s just that i’d really like to play this game but all my experiences with erotic games end up with me getting triggered because rape and abuse are featured as “kinks”, and actual kink is also featured as non consensual, and devs aren’t very fond of content warnings in general. this games seems actually sex positive, but i’d thought i’d ask for content/trigger warnings anyway… i’m sorry if this is offensive. i really like this aesthetic and want to give this game a try.
You know I gotta say, it's refreshing to see someone who is respectful of another's taste in taboo. I am a bit of a fan of the genre, and I can totally understand how it could/would trigger people and can't blame people, it is messed up. But enjoying something within the realm of fiction exclusively is different, as it is UNACCEPTABLE in reality and something I could never support. But many still treat fans as depraved monsters who are better of self yeeting. So honestly, thank you.
hi! i played through much of Cherry Kisses on steam. here's what i gathered: there is no abuse/rape within the game, and the devs actually had a word within a hidden route about certain fetishes like inflation/rubber/goo/balloon and why they're inherently a weird consensual but nonconsensual type kink. the closest i can imagine is with one character who has a denial kink which *only* happened because two other characters know him and gave the MC a thumbs up.
hey, sorry for the delay; sometimes itch doesn't email me about new comments here and i am not totally sure why??
i don't know you personally so i can't make any guarantees, but i don't think there's anything in the game i would consider generally triggering. the protagonist feels pretty strongly about having clear expectations, and in fact the first encounter is about someone trying to navigate that.
there is a rude adolescent who gets kinda mean to you sometimes; that's about as dire as it gets, i think?
i think someone once left a thumbs-down steam review complaining that they don't need to be babysat about consent, if that tells you anything
