Straight!? feels like some horny time traveler grabbed one of those old college slice of life anime, shoved it into a clumsy 3D engine, added dicks and awkward eye contact, then forgot to polish anything. And somehow it works. You start as Zack, this “totally straight” guy who narrates like he’s trying to convince himself as much as you. First day of college, new dorm, and suddenly there’s Braden, the roommate who looks like every “cute bro” meme on Reddit but talks like an actual dude, not some porn actor reading from a broken teleprompter. The story takes its time, way too much sometimes. Instead of jumping straight to cock in mouth, you get long nights on crappy dorm beds, shirtless stretching that lasts a bit too long, brushing teeth together, “accidental” eye contact at the worst times, and conversations that start with stupid jokes and end with “why the fuck am I thinking about his lips.” The whole thing is a slow corruption of Zack’s own idea of himself, mixed with self exploration in the most literal ways. Like you go from jerking off under the sheets trying not to think about your roommate, to having him straight up ask what you’re watching on your phone, and you feel that little panic in your chest, even though it’s just a visual novel.

The sex doesn’t pop out of nowhere. It kinda leaks in. A really long stare in the locker room, a dumb “I’ll help you shave” moment, then suddenly there’s a hand too close to your cock and the game just lets the silence stay there. When the first proper oral scene hits, it almost feels wrong, like you’re watching two dudes cross a line they built together over hours of talking about nothing. There’s anal, yeah, and it goes from “bro just helping out” to “I want to feel you” before either of them is ready to say it out loud. The romance lives in those tiny choices: do you look away or keep staring at his body, do you joke when he opens up about his past, do you touch his shoulder for one second too long. Sometimes the dialogue is clunky as hell, like someone typing in Discord while half horny and half insecure, and then out of nowhere you get a line that just hits you, because you remember that one guy from school you still stalk on Instagram. The 3D models are rough in early parts, like weird plastic dolls, but later scenes suddenly look better and you can almost feel skin where it used to look like wax. It’s inconsistent and kinda ugly in spots, which weirdly fits the story, because Zack is not some smooth porn fantasy. He jerks off alone, he freaks out, he says dumb shit, he pretends to be fine when he’s obviously falling for his roommate’s stupid smile. And even when you finally get to the heavy gay sex, it still feels like two idiots trying to figure out what they want from each other, not just bodies colliding. The game spends way too long on little things like brushing knees in bed or sharing a blanket during a movie, and not enough on big dramatic payoffs, but if you like that shaky first time feeling where lust and fear mix together until you can’t tell which is which, this thing nails it in the messiest way.

Zack shows up at college thinking life will be normal, chill, maybe a bit boring, and then he gets Braden as a roommate and everything just goes sideways in the slowest, quietest, most fucked up emotional way possible. The whole thing feels like someone sat in Discord VC for months listening to two shy guys talk about nothing and then turned it into a game. Most of the time you’re not even jerking off, you’re just reading these long conversations where they circle around what they actually feel, trip over their own words, throw stupid jokes to hide how scared they are. And somehow that’s hotter than half the straight-up porn games out there. There’s a scene where Zack is sitting on his bed, overthinking, screen light on his face, and Braden is brushing his teeth in the tiny dorm bathroom with the door half open. Nothing explicit happens, but you know exactly where both their brains are going, and it honestly made me more tense than some hardcore gangbang VN I played last week with 20 tags and zero soul.

The sexual stuff comes in like it does in real life when you’re confused as hell: bit by bit, super awkward, not clean at all. First time Zack gets caught masturbating, it’s not sexy porn-style, it’s pathetic and kind of funny and also really intimate. He’s under the blanket, clearly thinking about something he shouldn’t, and Braden walks in earlier than expected. There’s this awful pause, nobody says anything, then a stupid joke, and the game just lets you sit in that mess. No magic fadeout, no “well that escalated quickly” straight to blowjob. Later, when oral finally happens, it’s not some porn-pro move, it’s two inexperienced guys figuring out where to put their hands and if they’re breathing too loud. I liked that they don’t pretend a guy who thought he was straight yesterday suddenly sucks dick like he’s on OnlyFans. There’s anal too, obviously, but it takes forever to get there, and by the time it happens you already know their fears, their hangups, who skips leg day, all that. It’s more like “oh fuck, they actually trust each other enough now” than “yay, new CG unlocked”. I kinda hate how real it feels at times, because I just wanted to chill, not think about my own shit while watching two idiots slowly corrupt each other emotionally and sexually. And I still wish the MC would stop repeating the same self-doubt line every time he looks at Braden’s body, but whatever, he won’t. The game’s rough at the edges, you can tell the dev learned by doing, some scenes drag too long, some choices feel fake, but then there’s this one quiet moment where Zack stares at Braden’s sleeping face, clearly turned on and terrified at the same time, and it hits like a truck. Way too much of my Pornhub history is just brainless stuff, so having a horny college story that actually makes me pause the auto-scroll and just sit there staring at the screen was… annoying. In a good, stupid way. I kept skipping the explicit options sometimes because I just wanted to see if they finally admit anything during a late night talk, which is kinda backwards for an adult game, but that’s how this one works. It seduces you with emotional edging, then hits you with a blowjob that feels earned and messed up and human.
