Unity - Completed - Luna Fighter [v1.02] [EROPIXEL]

Now for starters... most of this game's quality is either mid or bad.

The music is fine as it is essentially stock music from what I can hear. They are definitely not original, but it's not something that majorly decreases the game's quality.

The art is mixed. The fighting animations is 10x better than the H and most of the game's art. It's clear that the artist prioritizes fighting animations, as there are several interesting and fun references to fighting game's animations.

The H-scenes is bad. They're just loops of very few frames (I can count each frames with my fingers) and they feel very very lame, no spice, no salt, no nothing.

But why I think this game isn't down to earth horrible is that the game at least flows really well for a beat 'em up... except a few parts.
Enemies in general are lame, as most act almost the same, only thing you'd need to care is the range and speed of their attacks. In the same fashion, this also applies to bosses.
The combos are one thing I'd say I like about this game, but I still feel very mixed about it. For one, they are satisfying to pull off, doing very sick and cool combos with variations from time to time thanks to the big moveset you have. The problem is that the combos itself is very easy due to how open it is. The enemy doesn't fall down faster or your moves deal less hitstun, it goes on forever until they're dead (which you can't know until they land on the ground). And for the same reason, the enemies can also "combo" you with no way to escape.
These makes me believe that the gameplay aspect is at least playable and I personally find it very fun. Looking at all of the things you can unlock, it really feels like the game has potential to be a competent, decent beat 'em up where you unlock more moves as you go, but unfortunately it's just not. It feels like an alpha test build with placeholder assets as the base line for a real game, but it simply isn't.

I would say what is there is fun, but I am really really biased here and just see the gameplay as ok enough to carry the game to slightly above horrible. Don't have much to say about it, 4/10.

completly incompetent developer.
Its a fucking unity game! How can you fuck up a unity game so badly that the game doesnt even play?

Contrary to other people i had the problem of the game starting but every time i attack or get attacked all characters freeze. and then after like 10 seconds the fly up into the air off the screen and land somewhere, just to freeze again...

Utter trash that should be avoided by a tenpole. Actually asking money for this is unaccaptable!

The game tries everything in its' power to make you not waste your time on it. It shows no respect, it makes you change your PC configurations so you can play it.
Spend your time elsewhere.

- EARRAPE in the main menu
- Open 'settings' as fast as you can, bring down the volume, click 'back'. Nothing changes until you click 'start game'?!
- If you have non-USA time format, the game will only show you black screen after starting new game. This 'game' requires mm/dd/yyyy format, smh. Seems like the game just stops after 'new game' is pressed if the format is "wrong".
- After you managed to start it, a high chance you might encounter a different issue, like game speed being insanely high. This might be fixed by capping FPS with graphic card software, like Nvidia GeForce Experience.
- OK OK, you managed to start the game somehow. And...
it's unplayable junk.
If the enemy hits you, you'll be flying mid-air taking hits like a sandbag, leaving around 1/3 health to your enemies to take, with no animation cancel or anything to protect you.
After you fall on the ground you will have to mash all the controls to break out of the H animation (or just wait patiently, it's up to you) .
You can't fight when crotching (pressing down).
You can't even do combos (atk-atk-atk), as that requires defeating enemies and buying some "skills".
I don't know if it gets better with grinding and buying skills, I say respect your time and play something else.
- OK, Imma just use CE to get lots of money and buy all skills - WRONG, you can find a single '4 byte' value for money when on a state, but you can't change it -- it changes back instantly. My CE skills didn't help me with this one -- I can't go deeper than this. I wonder if the dev spent some time on some anti-cheat features to add up to the amount of the annoying aspects of the game?
- OK FINE, Imma just download the savegame and be done with it... WRONG, the save records are scattered across your windows registry. Now, along with your windows settings and software configs you will have a bunch of stupid looking parameters for a hentai game. That is, if you decide to edit your registry to view a bunch of animation loops.

Not worth the efforts. Even not worth the time you spent on reading this review.

Awful gameplay, awful H-quality (2 frame loops), there's simply no reason to play this game.

I'll generously rate this 2 stars because it seems at least the developer tried to do something, even though they are incompetent. Maybe they'll develop better games in the future.

As an "upside" this game doesn't waste your time compared to those many DLsite scams which have trash gameplay but only show it after a long intro, so at least you can try it yourself quickly.

Rewriting this so it's less chaotic.

Everything in this game is tied to FPS, this means if you have a PC and monitor that can run it at over 60FPS you'll be playing at a disadvantage. If you run the game at 144hz you'll be playing the game at 2.4x speed and die instantly, or be juggled and then die, with no way to escape because you can't mash fast enough. You can force the game to run at 60FPS using Nvidia's control panel or AMD's equivalent and the game is playable, but it's still not good.

The combat is a simple beat 'em up with a small set of air combos and special moves. These don't help anything though, enemies will come at you in large waves and hit you which launches you and then they'll park their hitboxes and juggle you until you fall out of range, then they do a rape animation you have to mash out of, only to be juggled again. You do not have many invincibility frames. It's really not well thought out. The game also expects you to die a lot so you can restart after buying more skills and health. It's not fun as there's very little enemy variation anyway so even for the porn it's bad.
The FPS bug makes this game unplayable and this should be a 1 star for that alone because you'd just be juggled infinitely and die. Someone shipped a game this half-baked. Even with that fixed though, the game itself has very little to offer. The combat is simple which isn't bad in itself but the enemy variety and constant juggling make you rely on very specific safe moves and use very little to no expression, where a game like Fight n' Rage which was also made by a single person has extreme variation in ways to approach enemies.

Graphically the game does have decent pixel art, the animations are fine, but there's very few. The background art appears to be AI generated or free tiles they got somewhere. Worth noting as an aside that the Settings menu doesn't really work. The audio settings don't do anything and the game will always be blasting at full volume which isn't great when really annoying noises are layered on top of each other.

This game's bad,. Not much else to it.
Impressive if it's the first time this Dev's made something, but they should check what they ship.

Game is very RNG. Enemies perma-juggling, no way to regen health, inconsistent hit boxes will see enemies hit you through your own attack leading to aforementioned perma-juggling. Simple game, but not in the good way.
