Thought I would try out one of these "ai slop" games 'cause she is cute. There's no real explanation about what we're supposed to do, when Luna is supposed to "attune" and when not, and why... Also the description says that you can choose to lead her "to the light or from it" but there were a couple points where it seemed like you could not advance unless you did the corruption choice. I'm not very accustomed to sandbox games (tag was missing at first) so I'm not sure if I did something wrong or am stuck or what.

watching: for the comments

Way too grindy for an AI game.

 

[Skraven]

The graphics are too my liking for sure, but the "gameplay" are severely lacking with no indication of what to do.
Lots of trial and error of whom to possess and whatnot made me progress but there is rather little to do so far.

As long as the dev stays away from grinding and makes it very clear whats the next step i dont mind the sandbox part and the game could be quite decent if not actually good in the future.

Graphics look great. I couldn't figure out what to do so I quit.

As someone who actually likes well made sandbox games, I couldn't agree more. I've no idea what Attuned means or does, except I assume you're in that person's body. It says I can't access the outside map until I do the "Go to School" event. Got no idea of how to do that. Worst of all, there is no Next Day button so you keep advancing the the time by one hour with a button that is under a secondary menu.

A great premise with awesome models but, while still a demo, it's definitely not ready for prime time. Still, good luck to the author as, if done well, this will be a fantastic game.

goddamn that thigh gap is something
the grand canyon got silent after this release haha

Cute looking girls, but completely weird and confusing gameplay.

 

[Oga08]

Screenshot 1,2 and 5 look really good for an AI project. Saved for future reference, the gameplay is supposedly very confusing.

 

[AbdulGoran]

Those hips are just too cartoony, looks weird to me.

Attuned means being highly aware of, sensitive to, and in harmony with someone or something. It describes a state of being perfectly synced with an environment, another person's emotions, or a specific situation

Says Male protag, but desc makes it seem like you're a ghost...

Anyone able to elaborate on that?

Linux support would be appreciated

Game's hint is to "Reach Elsa's house and let the first welcome scene play". I'm in a house, no clear idea whether it's Elsa's (the narration prior implies it is), but the only thing I can do is move from room to room, with the "Map" option within the navigation menu locked. Nothing happens in any of the rooms, no welcome scene to be found, nothing seems to be clickable except the locked-down navigation menu.

I'm out. If I wanted an escape room/puzzle game, this wouldn't be site I'd go to to find it. The "dev" seems to have handed off the entire game development to AI, not just the images. From the few I saw, it did a good enough job with the images, but there might need to be some *actual* intelligence involved somewhere in the process, for this to work.

Two questions
1. Is there anything to do in the school
2. When having 55 attitude you can start talk about clothing with Julia, but you need to have 60 to continue this topic. How to restart this coversation?

I'll rephrase what I said. While I know the literal definition of Attuned, I'm not sure of how the mechanic works within the game, as such. It let's you play the character for some scenes but it's not clear exactly when and where to use it. I suppose I'm not Attuned to how it should work

 

[Mr.LewdRim]

I liked the graphics but got stuck game does not give much in terms of what to do at a point would like to see this sorted out hope the dev keeps going.
