HTML - The Making of a Slut [v1.0.1] [Austinhaney6969]

Review for v0.9.5
A really good mess, is how I would paraphrase my review for The Making of a Slut.
The game starts out very sandboxy, and then becomes very grindy, and then ends with your character just wondering off into the distance. All jokes aside, that is the best way to describe this game. The beginning is very open to starting how you want to start, go buy girls cloths, buy the butt plug, buy the chasity cage, don't buy anything, These are all options on how to start the corruption. The big issue, is that the amount you get corrupted from the items, doesn't scale well with the story. You jump off the deep end with buying things to feminize your character as quickly as possible, and then the story starts to not make any sense. Which leads to the player just going through the motions with the characters everyday life, grinding stats (that I'm not even sure matter all that much). Then the character becomes an airhead bimbo and the story is still stuck on me putting on makeup and makes all the story events feel off and not worthwhile so you end up just meandering around in the world looking for other things to do.
A good way to overcome everything that I just talked about, would be to implement a detailed journal that explained what events were (are about to be) available, and any sort of requirements that are needed to get them.
The interface is ok, but because of the stretching of the dialog, it creates an excessive amount of unnecessary scrolling which gets really old, really quick.
Overall, it's actually a really good game, and just needs a couple of things for it to end up being great.

This game was made for a very specific type of audience.
The majority of the content centers around both wearing a buttplug AND having a chastity cage on. Personally, I don't vibe with the whole chastity thing. All of the major storylines involve the chastity cage at some points, and you're forced (as in the game will not let you take it off) to wear 24/7 if you get too far into the biggest plotline, which is Riley's.

Putting all that aside, the UI for this game is very mid, clicking between pages refreshes your HUD, which sucks because you'll need to manually click a button to pop up your energy, time of day, etc, quite a lot.

There's a really small amount of visual content in this game, gifs are reused and usually less than two seconds long, and sometimes they don't match up with the story shown on screen (all of the masturbation gifs imply you're already deep into your feminization.)

Overall the game works and is playable, but has a lot of decisions that detract from the overall experience. Content is locked away along with your cock and feels impossible to escape. It's not what I expected going into the game. The content that is there feels reused and boring. None of the skills you can level up in the game do anything as far as I can tell, and there's a bunch of grades for classes in the game that serve exclusively as a bar to show how far you're progressing, grades don't decline ever and are just quotas to meet to keep moving forward. The game is alright, but not particularly fun or revolutionary in any way that an HTML game could be.

very confusing to hoow start a quest/route but good with more updates could be better expecting more gifs /images and routes with more customization option
overall Great concept. Many interesting visuals. Entertaining! Keeps you engaged with new content for hours

This game is a lot of fun if you enjoy sissification of the protagonist. The writing is good, the characters are interesting, and the player has enough choices to make some pretty significant deviations based on their decisions. It does feature images of pornstars and scenes from pornography, which is not everyone's cup of tea.

The only change I would make is to the UI; it is pretty clunky at first, but it is more manageable as time goes on.

All in all, if you like the genre of "HTML games with transformation/sissification", you will love this.

A modern classic for this genre, but the UI is a pain in the ass. I appreciate the effort that has gone into making a different UI than what is standard but it makes enjoying the good parts of the game so much harder when its how you play the whole game.

There is content to enjoy, but not enough for the poor UI and gameflow.

If there were more content, I would give it a higher rating. But the UI is awkward at best. The game mechanics are repetitive and clumsy. Having to make many clicks for the same things each day is tiring.

The content is good, for the most part in terms of art and style

Really wanted to like it. A lot of promise but the UI is really hard to navigate. Most importantly though, a central plot device (chastity cage) is completely bugged. Yes there are posts on this thread how to troubleshoot that but that should not be necessary. I'll keep an eye on this game and if it ever gets fixed maybe try it again but it's going into the delete pile for now.

This game has one of- if not the worst UI's I've ever seen in a game and whether it was intentional or not - and I have to question the intent here because I can't understand why any game developer would look at a UI like this and think "yeah, now that's a functional and attractive design" - it succeeds in creating a truly unplayable experience.

I had a lot of hope for this game, as did a lot of other people I noticed while reading through the thread, but I share a similar sentiment with all of them, until the UI receives a total overhaul (why reinvent the wheel in the first place? Just use the traditional UI all HTML games use, it's perfect as is), I'm going to have to pass on this experience.

v0.7.7 im giving this 3 stars because i can see the hard work that has gone into it, however this will be a mostly negative review.

firstly the ui is a cluttered mess, there is just far too many buttons and menus and sider bars. the story is also confusing, we know little or nothing about the mc or their motivations, and being able to crossdress straight away doesnt make sense to me.

TLR i wish this game was a linear story, where clothes and locations are introduced as the story progresses, also the ui of the game needs a complete redesign.

This review is meant as constructive criticism / feedback and is my own opinion, and not as an insult the creator. Thank you for the hard work.

If I had to describe this game in one word it would be this - messy. I think the easiest way to expand on that is to compare this to an old car that is currently going through renovation.

The Body/Chassis
When this game was first released it was a more linear game: transformations weren't a part of it. The plot or body for the most part has stayed the same - your protagonist meets a girl in school and an employer who for one reason or another decide that they want to feminize the player character. In the old version you couldn't progress with one without progressing the other. Well, now the body has a couple of bolt-ons and plaster. Austin has disconnected the character progression and has added new minor characters with their own independent arcs and individually they're all interesting. You have the cute shy girl(?) that doesn't have much content, the PE teacher that doesn't have much content but has recently got a lot more (no sex though), the math bimbo with not much content, etc. but outside of one character they're all unrelated to each other and the player character's feminization score. I can't help thinking that's a nice wing and those are some nice side skirts but I'm not sure if the side skirts fit the new front and rear bumper and the whole thing is being held together by body putty.

The Dash
The UI on this car has stayed mostly untouched save for a few bolt ons here and there and honestly it's been in need or a full renovation or replacement for a long time. It's an engineer's dashboard. The color scheme is this weird pink and black and you can see bits of the wiring harness in the gaps. Look, it's functional but it's a bit ugly. I can see the desire to give the player a way to see as many options as you can but having a cluster or buttons is just no good aesthetically. The animated avatar and keyboard binds are probably the best parts of it. It's nice being able to hit the space bar instead of wearing out my scroll wheel on those repeated scenes like the masturbation scenes. As for the renovations the color selection can use some work - for example choosing hair color and eye color still defaults to the game saying the character has brown hair and eyes and honestly having the full rgb slider with brightness and grayscale is unnecessary and causes the clothing colors to not even work most of the time. The clothing would only work if the default color was white. I also hear from others that this has a way to tie in sex toys to interact with the game. Not my thing but it's there.

The Porn
I don't have an automotive analogy for this one so let's just drop it. The porn that is in there is not what I would consider erotic. What do you mean, it's a porn game?!? What I mean is that there's no buildup. If I had to make a comparision it would be with Facial Abuse. This is the Facial Abuse of feminization games. When you first meet Riley, you have a normal talk with her once or twice, then public HJs then immediately we go straight to wearing female clothes and getting pegged. Excuse me, what? There's no foreplay at all, just straight to the tonsil tickling. Don't get me wrong, just because it's not erotic doesn't mean I haven't coomed to it but I prefer more slow and subversive methods of corruption. It does the rough fucking well and there's a lot of it and different genres but it's all straight forward and rough.

I could go on but I don't want to. Overall I would give this a 3 or a 6 on a 10 scale. It's just too messy to really give this a truly high score but I still play it from time to time and Austin is obviously talented and enjoys their work. Just tighten up the graphics on level 3.

The few scenes that are there have no sustenance to them and the player paperdoll is just a rough execution of Witch Trainer's paperdoll assets. Needs more content to be worth playing. The only content available is for the trap route but even that isn't fleshed out.

Great concept. Many interesting visuals. Entertaining! Keeps you engaged with new content for hours. Very robust main and secondary character development. Great short videos that rotate. It took a few min to figure out how to get started but well worth the time.

Having played through all of the content I could find I would say that this is a decent game. Worth taking the time to play, for sure.

I just find that the developer quickly got steered off the path of the story of the game. Especially once the sorority business starts. The game just takes a hard turn.

Another complaint that I have with the game is the time management part of it. Once you are done with the school content, and no reason to go to classes you just fall into the cycle of Work, People, People, Sleep, Work, People, People, Sleep. You use work to jump time to where you can see the individual characters, but then you can only see two per day while you're working on four story lines. Sometimes you only get to see one person on a day due to what their event is. So I would personally like for them to take less time so I can get more done in a day.

I would call this a fair game. A decent game. But not yet a great game. However I will continue to follow it's production.

This game is mildly interesting. At the beginning the story is alittle bit interesting but the grinding is extremly boring and the late game scenes are behind alot of unfinished and broken content for a 1 GB the content is mostly small

Fun fantasy game. It doesn't particularly stand out among as one of the greatest games, but it deserves a solid rating due to fairly good writing and a sexy premise. The added content is painfully slow and doesn't hit the spot, but the core gameplay is extremely hot.

If you look at the 1GB file size and are expecting something from this game then don't get your hopes up. I looked at the ratings and file size and was expecting something good but I ended up being really disappointed.

There is hardly anything to do which is weird considering the file size.

The mix of hentai and real porn ruins the emergence for me because on the right side you have this sissy, as can be seen in the cover and on the left is just some random real porn images mixed in.

There are also formatting errors, when you go for a walk in the park sometimes there are weird spacings between each paragraph.

The worst part for me is that in some parts of the game the developer just throws in random images and says "This is just a generic studying placeholder. I'm still debating EXACTLY how I'm going to do the code and how dynamic I want the system to be. So for the time being, enjoy some random porn videos." If I wanted to look at random porn pics I would just go find them my self.

The journal in the game is supposed to give you hints on what to do and is the most useless journal on the planet, literally does not help in the least bit!

Another big bug is that the game just randomly ends and it says that is the end of the content even though there is more content, I've tested this too.

This game in its current state is not worth playing and needs a lot of time/changes to improve.

Note: If you are not tolerant to emasculation, sissy gurls, or she-male fetish, and also are not gay or bi tolerant, I advise you to pass this one up. Seriously.

But you will be missing one hot story with lots of fetish content.

Just finished my first play-through. This game made me dust off my own chastity and toy set so I could play along with the MC. Outstandingly hot.

I was not a big fan of the HTML format - this is my first real exposure. But once I got used to it it wasn't bad. Don't like you can't go back easily. A bit too much mouse grind due to the format - tasks are not placed as efficiently on the screen as they could be in other formats. But I liked the hybrid - VN/Sandbox feel - some of the best features of both styles.

I do like having the debug information easily available, and the ability to modify values using the web browser's built in console. That is a nice feature.

I like the animation of the MC on the right side of the screen, except for the fact her legs are cut off above the knees. You can't see the full effect of her costume changes, this was a 'shrinkage' factor for me - the shoes and stockings are a big part of creating a female look - let us see our own creation in all her glory!

Would also be nice to have an x-ray feature where you can remove her outerwear only instead of just seeing her completely nude or fully dressed.

Love the expressions the anime use's - even changes during a conversation. Nice touch.

I ran across a few bugs that would have been show stoppers except for the advice given in the discussion here. (Sasha, Bailey, and a few times where the home screen was not available - the last easy to overcome in the Debug screen.) Would be nice to have that information linked on the OP as one or two seem to have been around for several versions.

There are at least 5 separate character paths to follow. Each character explores a different aspect of the MC's transformation/corruption. Some path's intertwine to an extent. In each path there seems to be choices to either be a full fledged sissy, or something else - not sure because the choices I made were on that path.

There were a lot of tasks and choices in each path to be completed, lots of other fetishes like spanking, ignore, and 'tease & denial'. I was able to skip most content I didn't want to see.

Game is a bit of a grind - but not major, and honestly there was so much going on in each character path I didn't really mind or notice much. The ability to sleep the day away easily to advance to the weekend fast really helped during slow periods.

At first I thought I'd hate the use of real porn images - but found out it was very very arousing if you watched them along with the MC animation on the right - the combination is surprisingly hot and very fappable. The Dev is very creative in his use of these cut scenes.

Hell, the Dev is a very creative story writer and good visual director.

For a game I thought I was going to find dull at best, it is a real surprise to me that I am giving it 5 Boners, writing this book length review, joining the devs Patreon, and adding it to my all time favorite games.

Outstanding effort!

On Edit: Review of Version 0.4.3 w/o bugfix

Version: 0.4.0

Art: 4/5; paperdoll could be better, but it's good enough.

H-scenes: 5/5; More scenes than in any other game on this site, hands down!

Story: 5/5; well written, funny, and very entertaining.

Gameplay: 5/5; a little grindy at times, but the story continually progresses so you don't really notice it.

Stability & Support: 5/5; game is solid, and the developer communicates well with the community.

Conclusion: One of the best sissification/TF games I've had the pleasure of playing.

The game is very good, the best HTML game i played so far: the story is good, the interface is a bit messy but after a while you familiarize with it and the scenes are great.

BUT the story is very linear and a completely different storyline would make the game even better.

I like the "story" so far. There are quit a few pictures, gifs etc. and of course: Riley <3
The Inventory management isn't a pain in the *** like in most of this html transformation genre games. That is also a big plus for me. I also like the Avatar which is of course taken from a different artist. Hope to see many more updates to this!
