well, GOG sent another "especially for you" email and finally annoyed me into unsubbing from their emails. i mean, i haven't bought anything there in ages anyway so I guess it's for the best.

I know you're not supposed to get this mad about marketing lies but, well, I am!

Well, your open-world first-person RPG does at least allow you to make a female character, but you're in EA and have no romance even officially planned at the moment, and I can't actually play it because first-person.

question for #indiedevs : do you make the kind of games you also like to play? I did VN/RPGs mostly, a few card games, one first person adventure and some sports/strategy sims (but loong time ago). However the kind of game I play most are souls-like, though I can't make them for obvious reasons (too difficult to code).

@winterwolves i do LIKE vns and rpgs but they're sometimes more commitment than I have available in my brain/schedule so I actually play a lot of simple replayable action games where I can easily go in for a short session and then stop.

@winterwolves vampire survivors, nova drift, gunbound, muse dash, spelunky...

Your promo logo had roses and swords. Your actual game is shooting endless waves of the undead. Without roses OR swords OR yuri. Boo. #CurationWoes

One week since the accident and my leg bruises are still really bothering me, I've been rubbing cold packs on my leg today.

@smellsofbikes Accident is maybe overstating it, don't panic! I kind of missed a step getting onto a train and my leg went down the gap. Nothing broken, nothing even bleeding, just scraped and bruised and banged.

It's an all-girls school sim, the protagonist is described as a yandere, and you can confess to other characters to raise your likability? I guess that counts as some kind of yuri...

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. #CurationWoes

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,
@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

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

"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

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 #CurationWoes

@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. #CurationWoes
