heard this from v a couple weeks ago

< its just a crappy retro VN
why am I playing this? I was sure this was a porn or something…

I remember that thread. People said it was a shit VN.

still I thought it was a shit porn VN

It's not a great game, but it's not a shit game either.

It's a perfectly comfy game that's best played with a drink in your hand. The devs even tell you that when you start a new game.

Just relax and enjoy a comfy game with decent music, ok writing, and some fun waifus.

And yes, there's a tiny bit of porn of it; nothing in the game, though.

...

Sound kewl
Oh god no, what? No.
Buzzword.

Synonymous with "it's shit but I like it"

Holy shit, this is awful and an insult to all dithered/sprite art porn out there. It's like a millennial bastardization.

You were mislead. The drink mechanics are nice, but the story sucks, and the MC is a vapid bitch.

I need this .gif so bad, after what I just witnessed.

I remember that friends of the devs were shilling this fucking hard a couple of months ago, it was sad. The fact that memes are in this piece of shit VN makes it even worse.
At least the soundtrack is pretty good.

Have some more.

True.

Like a kiss of life to an unloved, succumbed orphan, my eyes have opened once more.
Thank you deeply.

Got anymore PC-88 stuff? Quite the underrated platform considering shitty vaporwave artists only flock to the 98. For good reason.

It has some strong points on some characters' backstories, but damn is the sjw shit kinda obvious. Good chunk of the cast are either bi, lesbian, or sluts. Including Jill. And good god does this game love memes, especially corkies (self explanatory).

Good, contain the cancer.
It's fucking ironic how when a piece of media openly states that the characters inside the franchise are degenerates, not much porn is manufactured, but when not many details are given, or they aren't sexually active, and they're innocent, then there is a bigger surge of hard porn. Weird.

Unfortunately, I only have a few PC-88 stuff, but I did save a few tutorials, including the pixel logic pdf files that were posted in a thread way back.

I like a decent amount of their designs, so of course I want the porn. Why wouldn't you?

...

There is no villain (at least all the way up to chapter like 8, there is a blanant self insert, "ayy lmao the king killed a million people but he built this bar here so he's cool!", "trump is le evbil guise!", "I want to be a male barmaiden!", "I'm an annoying twat, actually I'm a spy, actually I'm a weaboo, actually I'm an annoying weaboo spy", "you believed the villain was Trump, but it was actually me, Dio! but not really", "I have this corporation that makes bombs and chemical weapons… for self defense, of course!", "I was allowed to pass 20 tons of Zyklon-B through Japanese customs because it's for self defense", "Hey, main character, I never told anyone this and I know we only talked like one time and I was an unbearable faggot all throught… but I crossdress at a maid cafe and I'm in love with you!", "it's all a plot to make you think it was all a plot to make you think it was all a plot to make you think it was all a plot ad infinitum"

That fucking game drained me worse than that one time I read My Immortal on stream.

Fuck off retard, porn is great and a major part of imageboards. That said this "game" is shit.

The main fucking character has a shitty twist of a super power.
Guess what's it? To savescum the fucking game

Here's a few more I found in my folders.

I never denied that, though, when you get these specific "Sexually Liberated" characters, their degeneracy worms in through proxy, or mediocre porn like above. Still glad it's not abundant, probably because these characters are already corrupt, and can no be further corrupted suck a dick.

Yeah, I was watching a walkthrough, cringed hard. It was like tumblr met 2006-era deviantart and ranked up the cringe factor to 12.
Reminded me of that one fat evil character from watch dogs, but gayer.

This is therapeutic

At least it gave us some really dank memes. Like that one bird girl that literally did every job, including that of the villain at a time.

Seriously, she's a limo driver, the owner of an arcade, the self insert's personal assistant, a novel prize winner on theoretical physics, the villain, the hero, the commedy release, the love intrest, etc.

Sure! Denk mimis r so fahnny

When you're having your soul drained out of you, you cling to any semblance of sanity.

True, everyone has their own way of happiness, even if it means laughing at petty/stupid shit. I'm not judging too hard. Though, I am condescending

yeahhh that was it, second pic really seemed like it was from the game itself
also that and the setting, "bartender action"

to be fair the game is quite comfy indeed, trying to get the right drink is interesting as a mini game mechanic, coming from someone who used to bartend
there are some funny parts like pic related,

of course, but only for test gains
its not gay, the dick only makes it better


are you really taking the high ground on not being a degenerate?

Nah, just not fapping to the tumblrtastic garbage that SJW's want you to masturbate to. Dick is a weakness they'll use. Give them no ground to stand on.

You know exactly what's wrong with this statement.

daily reminder the devs are cuckold faggots

its pretty good. i enjoyed it

They've gotta be b8ing, no one could be this stupid. You're right, regardlerss. I can smell the (1)'s revving up now.

I can hear them coming too, user. We've gotta hide!

OH GOD HE WAS RIGHT

I have maybe a few.

Anons that have finished it stated that there nothing interesting happens, 0 character progression.

...

Played through this again recently.

I was amazed at how much I liked the characters, they were well written enough to be unique and memorable, but on the exact opposite of that was the story. Completely boring. Nothing really happens. There's maybe two places per storyline where you affect the outcome. It ended up feeling very shallow, slightly hollow. The whole thing of the game being affected by what drinks you serve is almost a false advertisement. The drinks themselves aren't special (except the ones where you can choose how strong they are and even then, that's a bit of a cop out). All you really need to do is memorize a few 'favourite' drinks and serve them at a certain point; again, only really once or twice per character/arc. I really would have liked there to be a bit more branching out, also for the bartending bits to be a bit more in depth. I want something meaningful to happen should I stuff someone's drink with lots of boozy ingredients, not just watch them turn red and feed me some alternate dialogue. And as for the memes, yes they were forced. I liked the idea that you had the phone with the news app to give you a sense of the world, and Danger/u/ was alright (I like the idea that even after the world goes to complete shit, the people will still find refuge on imageboards) but the stuffing in of 2010 era memes and shit kills it. Any amateur devs who read this, if you're gonna put a sort of current era concept that 'lives on' into some cyberpunk future or whatever, take 5 seconds and make sure it doesn't sound like it's trying to imitate the current state of said concept. If you're gonna throw an imageboard into the year 207X or whatever, know that they're going to speak differently. No chance every meme we drop on here lasts decades. I didn't mind no lewd, but I think they should have gone down that path at least a little, given how much they talk about sex, and how one character fucks for a living. Now that I think about it, they talk a lot about sex for something that has nothing explicit in it.

If you want a short summation: The characters were rather charming and memorable, but they're let down by damn near everything else being shallow/uninspired/forced. Soundtrack is still killer though.

Honestly, I wasn't too big on the characters and the story, that's just me. The music is objectively the best part though. I like a bit of the art as well, that's the reason it drew me in, I love cyberpunk shit.
I've never seen a 'bartending' mechanic in the game. It piqued my interest but DEFINITELY needed to be fleshed out more, it almost like a quick 2 second gimmick.
Speaking of which, I need to find that damn soundtrack.

I'm personally on the fringes of getting into that Cyberpunk shit. I like synthwave, and the hum of neon and all that shit always seems to catch my interest for some reason.

I know you used to be able to just pull the soundtrack out of the game files, though you'd need to convert them, as they were all in .ogg format. I say used to, because in an update, the dev team took out those files and replaced them with an image teaser for their next game.

Can we at least agree that anyone who plays this without the scanlines deserves to be shot?

...

are you fucking joking

Didn't the devs self censor shit to appeal to the SJW indie clique?

no

They're buddy-buddy with SJW devs, but they didn't change any actual content to my recollection

Nope. It all used to be accessible, again, in a bit of an out-there format, but it was there. Not anymore though.

...

but anyway, there are two different things there, cyberpunk and retro gaming
besides the setting this game didn't show much cyberpunk at all, perhaps people backstories, but the banded graphics is just retro game art, nothing more

REMINDER THAT THIS IS THE BEST BARTENDING GAME EVER MADE

Yeah, might have been the thread where I asked v if it was worth picking up during the Steam sale, and Holla Forums said it was shit, so I got Momodora instead. It's not great, but it's kind of fun and at least it's a GAME where I get to beat up a witch by slapping her in the titties and not a crappy overpriced VN.

might as well post mine they're on the lood side of things

>< its just a crappy retro VN
Except by definition it isn't retro

Pretty much, nowadays though, you have a pack of retards naming everything that looks even remotely banded "Aesthetic" and "Cyberpunk".

this

...

I don't what is on about
but retro looking because it looks like low pixel bit depth like games used to in the past (thus the banding and other artifacts)
however still being very pleasing to the eyes when well done

cyberpunk on the other hand something completely different, its a fictional setting, has nothing to do with art
cyberpunk depicts a future tech dystopia, like in shadowrun or blade runner, or even deus ex

gib music plox

Stopped reading there

Seems like if it was just a cyberpunk papers please it would have been better.

I thought the story was overall pretty stupid. The dialogues were even worse; like I was having to sit in some fucking chatroom while a bunch of teenagers were doing some shitty autistic roleplay. Kind of like the stuttering retardposters you see here sometimes.

The soundtrack was nice, and I liked the drink mixing, but like what said, the story should have hinged on the central mechanic of the game, since it's the only thing where you have any agency. And even then, it's a cringefest no matter how well or poorly you do.

It also tried way too hard with the references to the degree that it felt like fellowkids.jpg

Those gifs look awful, are you really THAT starved for porn?

I don't remember anything about this game except the one whore who wore smelly police armour, that you could buy video games in the game, that it was boring as shit, and I stopped playing only a few hours in.

I stopped when everyone turned into a filthy sodomite, half the characters were faggots and the others were whores if they weren't one in the same.

I bought for "Waifus" on a VN binge, really regretted it 2 hours in.
