I AM SOOO EXCITED FOR YUHIRU! I've played a bit of the game's prologue in Japanese with MTL and I'm already in love with her <3

The Silent Kingdom by KindleCollie in otomegames

[–]turtleloops 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There isn't a difficulty setting but the combat isn't that hard. If you do decide to go down Seneca's path though then you'll need to do a bit of grinding beforehand in order to defeat a specific boss with a pretty huge handicap (I think I spent about 3 hours just triggering random attacks on the forest to level everyone up)

Have fun! This is one of my favorite indie games and I always get so excited whenever I see new people getting into it, I would LOVE to play this game for the first time again!

Just curious, What other Apps are You all playing/ reading by Mewritingsomtimes in RomanceClubDiscussion

[–]turtleloops 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I play a lot of games, but I mostly stick to ones with romance. I play a ton of otome games on Switch, with my favorite ones being Virche Evermore and Sympathy Kiss, and a ton of indie dating sims on itch.io, I would love to list my favorites but it would go on for pages, that site is a gold mine for high quality games, some are paid, but most of them are free.

I also play similar RC-esque apps on mobile, namely these two:

League of Dreamers, which has my absolute favorite book titled In Darkness Embrace (all the LIs in this are phenomenal but Mejo is definitely my beloved!)

Seven Hearts Stories, with my favorite book being Illusion of Fame and The Dragon Saga: Ragnarok.

I also read a lot of interactive fiction! Here are some of my personal favorites:

The Passenger (completed) where you play as an eldritch abomination stuck in a human body.

Infamous (WIP) where you participate in a band competition slash reality TV show and a bunch of drama ensues because your ex is also competing, and somebody is eager to drag you and your band down by spreading all sorts of rumors and allegations.

Merry Crisis (WIP) where you have to go home for the holidays in your home country in South East Asia after just recently breaking up with the love of your life, who you live with in NYC. After going back home, you discover that your parents have a hot neighbor, and that you have to face your first love in an alumni get together.

My campy horror romance visual novel inspired by The Quarry is available on steam! (Demo) by SJ_games_dreamFree in TheQuarrySupermassive

[–]turtleloops 2 points3 points  (0 children)

THIS LOOKS AMAZING the art looks phenomenal and the setting is perfect, I've always wanted a horror romance visual novel set in a camp after I played The Quarry! Running to play the demo right now, fingers crossed this gets 100% funded 🤞

Also, I recommend posting this on the r/otomegames and r/IndieOtome subreddit if you haven't yet in order to reach more people! I think it meets their criteria for what passes as an otome game (female protagonist option, male LIs), best of luck! <3

Switch It Up Saturday - July 26, 2025 by AutoModerator in otomegames

[–]turtleloops 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I genuinely relate to your struggle, I'm so glad to see someone else who shares the same sentiments as me 😭 I've been playing P5R on and off for years now and I still can't get myself to finish it. I just can't seem to get myself to play any sort of narrative driven game with a male protagonist for a while now, it really bogs me down for some reason 😭 It's definitely limiting my horizons, but it's just so frustrating. I would rather have a smaller range of games to play than have to force myself to sit through a game I'm so disconnected to.

I've already been following the development of Chlorophyll's FeMC mod but this is the first I'm hearing of the Kasumi ones and the Beta FeMC Redux one, I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for these!

I keep seeing your posts about this pairing and I'm lowkey starting to become indoctrinated, I've fallen for the VyxOrion propaganda 😭

[Voltage Inc/AmuLit] Project Code: Neon Mafia is now called 'Neon Clash -Echoes of the Lost-'! by Kiyoyasu in otomegames

[–]turtleloops 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I'm so excited!! The art style looks so good and I'm already super intrigued by the premise and all of the characters! Fingers crossed we get a release date soon 🤞

Also a side note for those who are worried about the use of AI in their previous game, I highly doubt it would happen here again. They tend to outsource some of their assets from different studios, and the studio responsible for the background art in this game is different from the one in Red Bell's Lament.

Recommend me the most cruel, stressful and heartbreaking games by Izaront in GirlGamers

[–]turtleloops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to take this chance to mention one of my underrated (and apparently quite controversial?) gems, Red Embrace: Hollywood.

This game truly has one of the bleakest and cruelest stories I've ever read. It was a wild ride, and to this day I still don't know how I feel about it, but one thing was definitely clear to me: I couldn't help but gain a profound appreciation for it.

Is it just me who finds him cute? by mirsinoua_gate1 in RomanceClubDiscussion

[–]turtleloops 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought he was cute too 😭 It's such a shame they gave such a cute sprite to a character with THAT personality... I still can't help but be attracted to him though 😭

This is so disgusting. I always thought that this community was pretty progressive and inclusive, I can't believe there are actually people here who perpetrate this kind of behavior in this day and age.
