Attention! Please read before posting!
Sexuality and depravity are parts of the vision HuniePot has for this game. That doesn't mean however that they should be part of this thread. Please keep any contents of the steamy version and any risky segments out of this thread. This includes direct embedment, too detailed descriptions of sexual acts and linking to any content of it likewise. Don't push it, if you have to ask yourself "is this too much?", please refrain. It probably is.

Let's keep this thread alive and well.

Kyu is a magic love fairy hailing from the mythical Sky Garden. As a humble servant to the great Love Goddess, it's Kyu's responsibility to spread love throughout the human world. She will be assigned to your case and after helping you get started on your quest she will hang around to offer advice. Though she is very old by human standards she is quite young in fairy years. Sexuality is a way of life for Kyu and her people. Love fairies are almost vampiric in their need for humans to sustain life; but it isn't blood that they suck. As a bisexual, Kyu is often attracted to the same girls you are and isn't afraid to tell you what she'd like to do to them. She even collects female underwear because, well, she just really likes the smell.

Beli instructs meditative yoga classes at the local gym. Though she does not consider herself a religious person she is very in-tune with her spiritual side. As somebody who grew up around Hindu influences she tends to stray away from things like drinking and partying, opting instead to spend her time doing more self-developmental exercises like meditation and nature walks. She loves to be outdoors and can often be found relaxing at the park. Beli tries hard to stick to a healthy vegan diet but has a crippling weakness for fried foods and sweets. She has developed strong friendships with some of the girls who take her class including Kyanna, Lola and perhaps most unlikely of all, Jessie.

Jessie is a semi-famous adult film actress. After having her daughter Tiffany at the young age of 16, she got into the adult film business as a desperate measure to support her and her daughter in the absence of Tiffany’s father who disappeared shortly after Jessie became pregnant. As it would turn out, she rather liked the money and attention that being a porn actress brought and decided to stick with it. Because Jessie wasn’t really able to experience the carefree youthfulness of her late teens and twenties she never quite outgrew her wild side and tends to overcompensate for those lost years. She goes downtown almost every night to dance, flirt and drink. Deep down Jessie know’s she has some growing up to do but isn’t ready to let go of her lifestyle.

Deviantart tier 'anime' art and puzzles in a dating sim with 'realistic' dialogue that sounds like it's taken straight out of MTV show?

Yeah this don't look too good.

Played a little bit. Really like that the female route isn't as cheap as they could have went. Dialog has actually been changed.

In a stunning display of naivety, I sent a review build to a bleeding heart SJW who had no intention of giving an objective review. Probably twice.

I’ve stated before that there is no chance the mainstream games media is going to give HuniePop a fair shake. It’s going to be attacked relentlessly because it does not conform to the politically correct narrative and cultural standards set forth by these people. I’ve somewhat jokingly said in the past that the game is basically an SJW’s worst nightmare.

I think it's in response to this review?

Here’s the deal: you’re a perpetually, virginal loser, because these games have to be relatable to their target audience. You’re so sexually hopeless you incur the wrath of the love goddess, and she sends an almost-naked, fairy lady to turn dates with women into a video game, because that’s your only skill. You’re actually so terrible at life, the fairy girl sees your case as a special challenge and goes the extra mile to make sure you get laid, and often. The projection in HuniePop’s (really bad, but who’s surprised?) writing is so thick you can cut it with a disapproving grimace.

With your new gamified romance powers, you get to stalk a group of women with your magic radar phone, and ask them invasive questions out of the blue, because that’s totally how approaching women works. You can also go out on date, which takes you to HuniePop’s pretend gimmick (I mean, seriously, there’s porn): the “puzzle stuff,” as HuniePop’s Kickstarter pitch so eloquently puts it.

Here’s the part that almost sounds like a real game review, because there are at least $50,000 of people actually interested in HuniePop, and it’s probably a safe bet not all of the cash came from the creative team’s families. So… puzzle stuff.

Behind all the cheese, sleaze, and blatant racism of HuniePop (seriously, it’s bad: like, there’s a Hispanic girl and you buy her cliche Mexican paraphernalia as gifts) is a match-three puzzle game. It’s literally the same as any other you can find on a mobile marketplace.

I think writing the dialogue as they did is pretty smart from a sales PoV, much better chance to go viral this way. We'll see.

Considering how funny I found that dialogue to be, I can see this if it's as intended for selling the game via word of mouth.

Yep, I'm just in it for the hilarity factor. I mean jesus man, I can't believe the dialogue in this game. If it were written like any other VN I wouldn't have even given it a second glance

While this game should never be held as an achievement of the medium, it dares to go against conventions and manages to stay funny, intended or not. It just happens to have some lewd content in there and that will always play against it.

I say we need more games like this.

Confession time:
Match 3 games are a freakin' drug for me. So that's a plus reason for me to play and eventually liking this game.

Guys, could we please tone down the insult quotes down a bit?
We don't want this thread to die too fast, right?
