you ever just stare at a grid and think... yeah, i'd tap that? soryu is this rpg thing that feels like it was coded during a fever dream after one too many energy drinks. the art's got that crunchy early 2000s flash game vibe, lines all wobbly like the artist was drawing with their non-dominant hand. and honestly? that's the charm. it's not polished, it's not smooth, it's like finding an old hentai doujin in a forgotten corner of the internet. my brain immediately starts cooking up fanart where the characters are melting into the pixel grid, all glitched out and horny.

the new battle system got added apparently, and it's... a thing that exists. you click, numbers happen, clothes come off. standard stuff. but then the music kicks in and it's this weirdly hypnotic synth loop that made me forget what i was doing. i spent like ten minutes just adjusting the volume slider because who puts that in a porn game? a madman, that's who. there's a new scene too, and some lines of dialogue that are trying so hard to be edgy but end up reading like a google translate of a bad visual novel. i live for that shit. the menu's new as well, all blocky and functional, like someone discovered UI design yesterday and went "yes, rectangles."

the discord link is right there, begging for feedback, and i respect the hustle. patreon too. but let's talk about what's missing. the grid based stuff could be way more interactive, you know? like, let me trace the lines with my cursor and have the character react. or maybe that's too much work. i dunno. the whole thing feels like a sketch that accidentally got published, and i'm here for the messy energy. just wish there was more of it. more scenes, more weird dialogue, more of that strange music. also the volume slider is genuinely the best feature and i'm not joking. it's so rare to see basic functionality in these games that it becomes erotic in itself.

Princess Sonika, right. Three years of being the best fighter in Lain or whatever. And the first thing you notice is the menu looks like a windows 95 screensaver had a baby with a hentai sketchbook. Not that I'm complaining. You get these little stat bars for her characteristics, like strength and something about her "resistance" which I thought was for poison but nope. It's for other stuff. The choice system is weird, man. You pick what she does and the story branches, but half the time I picked something thinking it would lead to a fight and instead she's suddenly in a room with some court advisor who has very specific ideas about royal duties. The suspects tag? There's a whole interrogation thing but you can also just... not. Let her get distracted. The story is there if you squint, something about a plot against the kingdom, but I kept forgetting because the princess would get sidetracked by a guard with a big sword. And I mean big sword. The fantasy setting is just an excuse for elves with huge tits and a dragon that doesn't breathe fire, if you catch my drift. Soryu, that's the dragon guy, he's got this whole brooding thing but then he's also got two dicks. Not a spoiler, it's on the loading screen. The art is inconsistent, some scenes look like a pro drew them and others look like a teenager's first tablet attempt. The sound is just royalty free lute music that loops until you want to stab your ears. But the weirdest part is the torture tag. Not like, dark web stuff, more like tickle torture with feathers and then suddenly she's into it. The game never explains why she's so okay with everything. One minute she's a proud warrior, next she's on her knees for a stable boy because he said please. And the choices don't matter that much, they just change which hole gets the attention. I wish there was a way to make her actually fight back, like a resistance stat that actually resisted something. But no. Anyway, the princess has a nice ass. That's the review.
