Huh...this is a thing then. Also Indiegala already has uncensored hentai games in a bundle at the moment. Sexy Girls bundle has been up for awhile.

^NSFW obviously...pretty certain one title has nudity in its damned cover art. What can you expect from a game called "Boob Wars" though lol. Not posting a link for obvious reasons, but yeah. Its on indiegala.

[Candescence]

I swear, one of these days if I actually get any clout as a game designer, I'll probably just make a game with uncensored sex and treat it like its no big deal just to fuck with everyone. Though I'd also try and keep it within the boundaries of tastefulness and non-gratuitous, I don't wanna go too far with that experiment.

I want to take a goddamn sledgehammer to that double standard.

 

[spyhunterzero]

Oh....*ahem*

That is totally inappropriate I mean.

:/

I have a feeling that this game will be light on the stuff that would otherwise get it censored on steam though. But a win is a win I guess

 

[foxuzamaki]

you had me at "sexy lesbian ghost game"

.

 

[CadetMahoney]

I'm not sure how this is a "win" if the game is softcore?

just market/PR it as hardcore and fool people.

 

[KuroPyonyo]

Lol, but to be fair, straight males is a much bigger demo than gay females, and I imagine that there is a considerable amount of overlap in taste. I wouldn't know from experience, but I assume that there are lesbians who are into cute anime girls. There is afterall that entire series of yuri games, Sono something or other, that I don't think are primarily targeted at males (or are they? I dunno).

Recently the SteamSpy guy wrote an article "Your Target Audience doesn't exist".
It's really interessting and it boils down to that bland demo statements are reductionist.
For example general consensus would say Senran Kagura is for males, my anecdotal evidence tells me it is far more popular with females.
But does it even matter who enjoys what title? As long as there is something enjoyable to someone in there I'll be happy (there are far to many terrible VNs on steam).

 

[Flandy]

Came to see if title was actual name of game.

 

[BennyBlanco]

I didn't even know that was a 4chan thing haha

the fact that it doesn't do anything anywhere but 4chan should've clued you in, man.

but i've seen lots of people do it on GAF so you're not alone.

 

[Razmos]

I just use it for emphasis haha, I've never even been on 4chan and know nothing about it other than a few pictures I've seen of it.

The ">" character in front of statements to indicate a quote didn't originate with 4chan, and 4chan isn't the only site where it's still in use.

Is ghost marriage America's next great social hurdle?

Their love is real. But they are not.

 

[Pankratous]

I should buy a PC.

 

[silver.tongue]

What? He has Yukiko front and center like it should be. What's wrong with the picture?

 

[Iva Demilcol]

All I want to know is the date of release.

 

[Shard]

Well then, that is one way to sell a game.

 

[jonjonaug]

All I want to know is the date of release.

Mangagamer is very public about the state of their projects compared to most translation companies (link may not be safe for work).

The translation is almost halfway done. Currently the plan is to release it sometime in 2016, no definite date yet. Given the pace of the translation it will likely be released earlier in 2016 rather than later.

 

[radios shipping overview]

There's nothing too explicit in the images for this game either. No depictions of genitals or anything like that, there's stuff on Steam already that's rated M and is more explicit

Sounds like there was never much chance of this actually being denied, so this is a mountain made out of a molehill. Marketing!

>implying greentexting didn't originate on 4chan

 

[boiled goose]

Ghost sex is pretty much rape no?

 

[machemachete]

Games as art

 

[jonjonaug]

I'm fine with this if it gets people who "ironically" buy games like Sakura Spirit and Nekopara into reading something that has the potential to actually be pretty good.

 

[Leafhopper]

what.

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Million dollar seller right here.

 

[Staf]

Not for me but there's bound to be girls and guys who like this sort of thing so... more diverse games is always nice.

 

[shiftplusone]

Ghost sex is pretty much rape no?

Patrick Swayze helped that woman make a bowl and that was completely consensual

Also ghost on ghost is different rules entirely

I'll have to consult my resident ghost friend.

 

[FtsH]

My vote to 2015 GOTY is now settled. Sorry MGS V, Witcher 3 and the yet to release Fallout 4.....

 

[Eila]

Woo anime boobies.
The japanese title was better, though: Yuri Ghosts on the Rooftop. Doesn't get more descriptive than that.

 

[lethial]

Lol who plays these "games"

I read this with Jeff Gertsmann's voice and it's even funnier.

 

[jonjonaug]

I don't think you want to know how much Nekopara sold.

 

[shaowebb]

Lol who plays these "games"

The Pewdiepie requests will be through the roof on this one...

 

[Pellegri Testament]

Lol who plays these "games"

The more potential nudity/teases, the more they sell. Should look up the Sakura games on steamspy sometime (or look into Nekopara before they had it delisted on the site), there is a large niche audience for these things lol.

 

[kinggroin]

How progressive. This is quite the win for the gay community

 

[Labrys]

It's uncensored because besides breasts there's nothing to censor really (With games like Huniepop breasts don't get censored even with the censored version on Steam).
The game is more lighthearted/soft and cute than the title of the thread lets on. Here's the opening movie: https://youtu.be/J7XNJg2lUJQ

I'll take representation whenever I can get it however, so I'll be picking this up day 1.

 

[thomasmahler]

Well, if there's something strange in my neighborhood, I'll now surely call sexy lesbian ghosts.

 

[timetokill]

Come on

Velma would definitely be into sexy lesbian ghosts

 

[Onivulk]

Wow this really works out for me. Sexy lesbian is my favorite ghost variation!

 

[Doukou]

I wonder how much ghosts actually adds to popularity. Gimmick works.

 

[JimJamJones]

Sexy lesbian ghosts, you say?

What? He has Yukiko front and center like it should be.

This is correct.

 

[PartTimeWarrior]

I am intrigued.

I look forward to the Let's Play

 

[Valnen]

Lol who plays these "games"

Visual novels?

Enough to where there's a market for them.

I don't think you want to know how much Nekopara sold.

Did it sell well? That's rather surprising.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Having read alot of yuri doujinshi, I would have to say that they're most likely targeted at women, that's not to say men couldn't enjoy it but they have a lot more going on for them.

 

[Pellegri Testament]

Did it sell well? That's rather surprising.

Depends on if you consider 60k at $9-10 each as "well" lol. That was also the last know number steamspy had it at before they were told to delist it, that was also about a month or so before the summer sale.

 

[King Gilga]

Yeah, I was thinking, "Nothing about this sounds like it will actually be sexy to lesbians..."

Japans weird like that, their male gay stuff is for straight women, and their lesbian stuff is for straight men.

Well I guess the latter is true everywhere.

 

[jonjonaug]

Did it sell well? That's rather surprising.

To date, probably around 50K copies. 30K was the official number a while back, and 45K was the number on Steamspy before the developer requested that the game be removed from tracking.

Japans weird like that, their male gay stuff is for straight women, and their lesbian stuff is for straight men.

Well I guess the latter is true everywhere.

Their lesbian stuff is also for women. It's only in the past 10 years or so that yuri works targeted at a male audience have become more frequent, but I believe the majority of the audience for yuri works in Japan is still female.

 

[dragonlife]

Premise sounds interesting and I really like those designs. I'd be willing to give this a shot.

 

[plasmawave]

I can't fap to this. Ghosts aren't real.

For you.
