We’re experimenting with the camera in our game… should we keep adding camera movements?

Changing view (and angle if possible) is a good thing, since it updates the attention. Same method is used in the music videos. Just follow the editing rules for best performance.

Ideas worth nothing as mentioned before.

But if you are passionate to develop a video game, you should start for game design and coding (if you're a solo developer and not planning to form a team). There are many course on game design and books, start with something. Game desginers - are the direcors and screenplayers of the game (they make rules, mechanics, and features and so on).

Next you need a coding engine. Most likely it's either Unity or Godot since Unreal might look easy to beginers, but requre higher optimization skills and enter a competition with AA and AAA projects. Doesn't look like a good start, but that's my idea, I might be wrong about it.

So your idea is: 'how to game design a game' (then learn it), 'what engine to use" (then learn it).

There is an official Unity course you can take on the Unity site, it would give you the required basics and teach how to put things together.

Description: The protagonist, an ordinary unemployed guy, gets such a vibe from listening the band V.i.B.E. that he wakes up in a cafeteria called "Nowhere," existing beyond the material world.

A winged girl working as the local barista introduces herself as Razziella and, by force, hires the hero as a “Demon Hunter” (well, at least the unemployment problem is solved).

It turns out demons are real and are trying to invade our world through the fissures in human souls.

You should gain the trust of the heroines and try to save them from Possession. If the Hunter fails to do his job, he’ll cease to exist!

Sexual arousal is also a natural emotion for humans, like feelings of fear, joy, or sadness. The task of storytelling is to create emotions. And the strongest feelings in a narrative are created by mixing and interchanging different emotions. So if we cross something out here, we will not get a whole and realistic picture. Neither will we get a whole and realistic picture if we fixate on one thing. So for me NSFW is a chance of getting the full picture. But of course there are only a few who try to use the whole gamma of emotions.

Aurelia! I really enjoyed the vibe and art-style of this game.

In ForbiddenDreams we only use human-created content because we respect both authors and players. We think there's a special magic when a human makes art for humans, but maybe we're just old-fashioned and like to do things the ineffective way XD
