Hanako Games - Indie developer, you probably know me from Long Live the Queen or Magical Diary.

Also geeky fangirl, somewhat bent (or is that twisted?)

watching tv dramas about absolutely terrible over-involved parents really makes you grateful to be GenX

odd that this "erotic muscle training" game uses "they" for the protagonist on the steam page when this appears to be BxG so I guess I have to install it to verify? sigh.

I'm getting more and more people asking for guides, even for really basic VN where you can just rollback if you pick the wrong choice.
Maybe the demand for kinetic novels (VNs without any choice) is bigger than I thought, or otherwise I don't understand this need for a guide for everything...

@hanakogames@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@winterwolves I generally dislike kinetic novels BUT i'm also going to expect there to be a guide fairly swiftly after a game comes out. You never know, some games are pretty esoteric with what combination of choices you need to get to an ending, and when you've been stumped in the past you like having the reassurance that there's a roadmap!

It doesn't mean I don't want choices - I absolutely want choices. I just want to be sure I can get the content!

A guy searching for his missing sister is probably not yuri but I guess it depends on why she's missing. #CurationWoes

"Male rapper shoots zombies" is not yuri #CurationWoes

ANOTHER "climb a mountain of 3d junk" game is still not yuri

hanakogames,
@hanakogames@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@aetataureate Yeah there must be something because it comes up too often.

Another 3D foot fetish game which is... technically yuri I guess

"please find a key for our ho game"

What's the opposite of "the hill I will die on"? The hill I will walk briskly past while other people die on it?

@CarlMuckenhoupt The fort you will flee to?

"New game is coming out soon and I'll be glad to hear your opinion"

A) It's a slider puzzle
B) It's a four-panel slider puzzle for instant porn
C) It's AI art
D) It's not yuri
E) LEAVE

Matching three cute blocks is not yuri.

whoops, clicked on the new Read Only Memories game while I was using the wrong account (i have a dev account and a player account) which would make testing awkward but I'm pretty sure someone will tell me about the yuri anyway

i had MULTIPLE Jet Lag dreams last night. i may have a problem.

@scottmichaud no, it's a web show where people are doing competitions that involve a lot of transport.

Open-world crafting/survival in ancient China is highly unlikely to be yuri, but it's cute.

Anime schoolgirls shooting zombies isn't yuri but at least your submjssion was quite friendly.

Why is your BMX biking game tagged LGBT?

... and automobile sim?

... and skating?

@hanakogames@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

Your sexy girls card battler seems very unlikely to be yuri, though it's theoretically possible that they let you be a female invisible protagonist warleader, but I doubt it

A ball being blown around platforms by the wind is not yuri.

Copying files is not yuri. Also, you say you're writing via auto-translate but your file utility is listed as only English which makes me not keen on letting it mess with my files.

Your 90s anime FPS with a male protagonist has an aesthetic but does not have yuri.

I dreamed I was having to evaluate holodeck versions of shitty porn games to find out if they were yuri, but they were super low-budget so everyone had extremely terrible animation and was clipping and jittering all over the place.

"Click to stab when you hear a noise" is not yuri.

hanakogames, to random
@hanakogames@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

Your male protagonist romancing four girls while plotting to kill a fantasy Emperor is not yuri. It's also not historical, WWI-based, or a platformer, unlike the tags you picked.

hanakogames,
@hanakogames@mastodon.gamedev.place avatar

@glennmagusharvey Predates the big chatGPT push iirc. THey have a limited set of tags and they have their own algorithm ideas of what tags most commonly go together and what might be related to the description you put on the game webpage, so they suggest ideas for you to pick from.

Some devs will just 'sure whatever' and take all of them. Or not even know what they MEAN. If you're not a genre expert in some of these tags you may not understand them.
