> Boooooo. And here I was, excited you'd start blogging again, or at least be like some sagely guru commenting on the changing landscape of h-games. WAY TO KILL MY EXPECTATIONS.
I'm not going to start blogging again because there's so little worth saying at this point. But hey, for old time's sake, here's one last swing at it:
Let me sum up everything that's wrong with hentai games:
At any given point in time when playing a hentai game, ask yourself two questions:
1) Is there any gameplay?
2) Is there any hentai?
The answer to both is usually "no".
The answer to at least one of them is
almost always "no".
This is not a hard problem to fix. It's not being fixed. It may even be getting worse over time.
Clearly, people either don't agree that it's a problem or aren't capable of fixing it.
Either way, that is why sagely gurus tend to become hermits.
> I wonder how the landscape of adult games would be now if you hadn't come along, not to mention the communities surrounding it. I bet it feels weird to have had one in your name carrying on through all these years.
It's completely bizarre and surreal. My games weren't very good and my art was terrible, yet here we are.
Maybe if I hadn't come along, we'd all be better off? Maybe I set the bar too low and lulled people into a false sense of pride and accomplishment?
> Have you kept up with H-games in any capacity? If so do you have any favorites?
See above for an explanation of why I don't think very highly of many hentai games.
Once in a while I blitz through a few of them. Most every game has some specific elements that are good and noteworthy but finding ones that provide a complete experience is rare.
Some random stuff of the top of my head...
Relatively Complete Packages
Goblin Walker: It's a complete, solid game. Most of the time is spent in gameplay and the hentai is largely integrated into it. Not a fan of the art style though and the sex scenes are subpar.
Queen's Legacy: Nice blend of RPG, action, simple unobtrusive narrative, world-building and gameplay systems that revolve around hentai and integrate with one another in varied ways. Save file keeps disappearing or getting corrupted so I've never gotten through it.
She ill server: Interesting take on gameplay which doesn't always hit the mark but is worth it for reasons you should be able to guess by now. Anyone who cares about hentai game design should check it out for ideas.
Mostly Gameplay-Focused
Demon's Sperm: A really competent 2D 'souls' game. Shame they forgot to put hentai in most of it.
LiLipalace: Recent oldschool first-person dungeon crawler on Steam. Decently engaging game with good variety from what I've played. Unfortunately it's hard to fit a lot of hentai into a game when 99% of the time you're staring at empty hallways or portraits of monsters.
Rune's Pharmacy (and 50 million other RPG Maker games): Hours at a time with no sex, bland uninteresting combat, unlikely you'll see most of the sex scenes without unlocking the gallery, but overall well put together and has some good sequences.
And a bunch of beat-em-ups, metroidvanias, etc. It's easy to make a mediocre game and slap a couple naked girls in it.
No real point in giving examples of games with little gameplay since that's what jpegs are for.
> So where did you source the voices for jungle and demon girl from?
Ripped from whatever random porn I had lying around at the time that didn't have excessive amounts of noise and music in them. I don't remember the sources, though it looks like someone tracked down one in this thread:

Pretty sure I only even had that porn from the Kazaa days where everything was mislabeled so it was completely random what you'd get.
