Hentai-type game where sex for sex's sake? Like, the girl literally stripped to nothing in order to cast a spell during battle and the old guy wanted to sex her up which is, uh, creepy and fetishtastic???

My project isn't pornographic or tasteless

I failed because I didn't account for how the player's perspective would differ from my own. I'm still developing the project that this project derived from, and I haven't shared it yet, so I can't expect the player to understand what's going on, and without knowing what I know, I guess it just looked like hentai.

We don't do sex games on this site. It's literally that simple. Games can have adult content as long as its not predatory and overtly sexualisation of the characters in question or deals with such situations in a mature, responsible manner.

No "hurr durr, naked chick flash tits lol" or "mah dick is need hard" or "ugly old man get cute little girl fetish prn". If it can be read as hentai, no thanks. Take it elsewhere.


Like, the idea of equipment changes changing battles is great and all, but the subject matter of making it respond to a young woman literally stripping in order to seduce monsters is very fetish. Nah thanks.

The old man literally tells her he would've assaulted her (somnophilia neglects consent) to cure his ED, and upon learning this, instead of being disturbed that a man would take advantage of an unconscious woman for any reason, the lady throws herself at him by saying "you don't have to wait until I'm asleep." Just the facts.

As in this?Because after reporting this entry as problematic, I did some research and, yeah, it's hentai. Matter of fact, the main project makes no qualms about it: by English definition, she is assaulted.

Did you check the status screen with armor equipped, and then again with armor not equipped? There's a description for both classes that provides the explanation you're looking for regarding why she threw herself at him.

Maybe I shouldn’t comment without playing the game but having sex with someone while they’re unconscious is rape if you don’t get their consent beforehand, even if it’s someone you’ve been dating, which from what I infer they weren’t anyway. Heck, even with consent it is an iffy thing to do. It doesn’t matter if she actually wanted it, if the old man didn’t know that, he’s a massive creep, and I don’t think you can justify his actions.

That being said, try not to take it too hard. There is a place for everything, and RMN is unfortunately not the place for porn games. You can try itch.io for that. We’re happy to have new people in the community but we ask that you respect the site rules and that we have younger members who should not be exposed to certain things. I fully support sexual content (when everything is consensual and legal, mind you) but there’s a good reason why kids shouldn’t see it - because it encourages sexual behavior that will make them more susceptible to grooming and predators. I also fully encourage freedom of expression but kids are not old enough to fully understand the ramifications of certain things. They can also be influenced, and seeing a girl respond to a rape threat saying she actually wants it can be really harmful. There’s a reason age of consent is a thing. I’m saying all of this as someone who just recently turned into an adult.

Again, sorry that having your game rejected made you upset, but there was a reason. We have an adult only discord server (not officially related to rmn but mostly members from here) if you wish to join, and itch.io would be a much better place to host your games if they have adult content like I said. I hope we’re able to get past this and have you in our community!

I've gone back and played it again, and these two are still conflicting. Even if she has full control over her sexual exploits, there's still an emphasis on the sexual exploits, making the game itself rather pornographic. Giving the player the freedom to undress her also goes against the "not pornographic" mantra. It wasn't meant to be, but it is. I can kind of see where you're coming from with perhaps the human body not being in itself a problem, but you did have a guy who essentially said "I'm going to make the sexy times with your unconscious body." That's not cool.

I'm sorry we're prudent, but Frogge is right on the money. We want to keep things PG-13 here. We curse like sailors and go anywhere and everywhere with the violence in our games, so it seems like a double standard, but the whole 'sex and nudity' thing, we feel, tips the scale into R or even X rated. What I think would be a happy compromise is to make a special exception for you and give you an extra week to make a new game (the rest of us had our deadline) that fills the criteria so you can be eligible for the prizes, but that's up to the powers-that-be.

Got it done just in time! It's my first completed RPG Maker game, so there was a lot of time spent learning, but I hope it's entertaining, and not too difficult!

(I followed a few of the prompts, but I'll leave it to players to discover which ones, so that I don't spoil anything.)

Video games don’t make you violent, but video games can make you horny.

Oh wow, this went by so quickly. Is this the smallest birthday event turnout we’ve ever had?

Regardless, quality over quantity! I see some very promising stuff and I’m very hyped for libby’s stream!
