Explanation to Negative Feedback
Very generic, robotic conversations
The kind of conversations that you can imagine hearing with little to no emotion. It’s all very stilted and repetitive. Maybe the kind of speech one would expect from AI back when AI wasn’t that great.
Or maybe the translation just sucks.
I don’t know, but it’s not great.
AI foxgirl
Normally I don’t care about AI art in these games, it’s just kind of whatever and par for the course, and while I do like the looks of the foxgirl and the variety of outfits she wears, something’s not quite right.
I think it’s her tail.
It almost looks like her tail was drawn and colored by an artist, while the rest is pretty AI graphics. It just doesn’t look right on her, like it was made to be placed onto her after the rest of her models were made.
Generic face emoji
When you or Miko speak, there’s a character face icon on the side, but not a whole lot of work was placed into them. They are either a generic fox face or simplistic face of a guy.
I mean, at least we know who’s talking, I guess.
Explanation to Positive Feedback
Just a wholesome date
I was going to write this off as a negative because of an unfinished story, but after thinking about it, it’s not really incomplete. You get exactly what the game title states–a date with a foxgirl.
Maybe the only reason it feels incomplete is because to continue the date and take it further, you’ll need to download the NSFW DLC.
Until that moment, this is a SFW date.
Puzzles require thought
Thankfully they aren’t like six piece puzzles between each scene like some of these games out there. Instead, you have hexagonal tile pieces that you’ll need to match up the different colored loops.
While the puzzles are easy, I think they get a small amount more challenging with each scene, which makes you think a bit more on them.
NSFW DLC
The DLC gives you many extra things, and also takes stuff away, such as the visual novel storyline. Which makes sense, because it’s the DLC you’d want to get to the adult portion.
The base game gives you six scenes, and so the DLC gives you the same amount, with the same puzzles, though a bit more challenging, and animation to the scenes, which the base game also has, but it’s more subtle. The animation here is a little more involved, given what we’re looking at.
Plus, there are sound effects that come with the scenes in the DLC.
Not Now Mom Podcast Transcript
This is the transcript of our podcast episode for Date with Foxgirl on Not Now Mom, I’m Gaming.
Seeing as this is a NSFW game, the full podcast will be available on our Patreon, but the transcript remains with censored words so you know what I have to say about it.
All links within this section do not pertain to the game itself, and don’t need to be clicked. They are affiliate links that take you to random products I think are interesting.
Hello everyone, and welcome to another episode of Not Now Mom, I’m Gaming.
My name is Kay and on this episode, we’ll be doing a gameplay review of Date with Foxgirl, which has a base game that is SFW and a DLC you can download if you want the adult portions.
I want you to know that this game’s all time peak players is at 6, and the reviews are mostly positive.
For me, the base game was a negative. However, combine it with the DLC, and it gets a little bit better, if only because you don’t have to read anymore of the storyline. It’s all animation and sounds at that point, and something most people are after when they purchase games from the Hunny Bunny devs.
It’s short, has puzzles that get moderately more difficult the further you progress, and then ends with the DLC’s bang.
The blurb for this game states:
Have you ever wondered why you don’t have a girlfriend? Or have you ever wondered if you will ever find a girlfriend? Sometimes it doesn’t take much to meet a beautiful foxy girl… Just go to a cafe for coffee in time, and have a little perseverance and desire…
As you might have noticed by now, I have set up subtitles, and I think I might be doing this for my podcast episodes from this point forward, just to help everyone out that can’t hear very well, but would like to enjoy what I’m saying in regards to all these weird games I play.
Here’s (haha) hoping it helps you along.
Now, let’s get into the review.
Our next scene starts with a puzzle that’s a little bit bigger than the first one, this one having three loops to match up instead of two. It’s still fairly easy in the sense that you just have to match up the end loops on the ends of the puzzles at the right place.
The next bit is a little confusing.
Miko has finished her work already. It’s stated that she has by the line, “After finishing work,” but when she leaves the cafe and sees Koichi waiting for her by the entrance (which is weird in itself; how long has he been standing there?), he asks her if she’d like to go on a walk with him.
I’m trying not to put him in the red flag category here, but it’s difficult.
I get it, some people are just lonely…but don’t seek the company of others like this.
Anyway, Miko states that she has to finish up her work now, which might take around an hour. Now, my brain is thinking she’s going to wait an hour inside the cafe in hopes that he’s going to wander off and go stalk someone else, but he doesn’t.
Here’s where you see a good example of the repetition I was talking about. Koichi asks, “Do you want to go for a walk with me? I know a great place where we can go for a walk.”
He’s really shoving his eagerness to the forefront isn’t he?
Oh, before we head to the park for our little walk, she did do an outfit change, and each scene does give her a different outfit. I think her outfit looks pretty nice here. Cute, but reserved, I’d say. At least her tail is coming out from behind and not her side this time.
Honestly, I don’t really know what to say about most outfits. I’m just a casual t-shirt and jeans person. I’m not in-the-know for styles.
Our next puzzle features three rings and I don’t think it’s bigger than the last one we did, just a different layout change. I will say at this point it kind of sucks that the puzzle itself blocks the foxgirl, even though you see her when it’s complete anyway, and it’s not like it hides anything from you specifically, it’s just a personal annoyance.
Koichi states he’s happy we agreed to go out with him, and that’s a double-edged statement, because we went out with him for a walk in the park, but I’m thinking his mind is thinking we’re actually going out with him right now.
Plus, it’s not like he gave us much of a choice.
And Miko isn’t one to seem rude and brush someone off.
He then thanks us, once again, for agreeing to go out with him. As if we already forgot that he’s happy about it. Or maybe he’s hammering the point home that this is a date to him and he doesn’t want us to miss that clearly bold and underlined point.
He asks if we can go to the park, and it’s the place he said he wanted to take us in the first place, so why ask again?
Also, I love the background here. We’re not technically in a park yet, but we’re in an area where sakura trees are clearly in full bloom. She looks nice here, sitting amongst all of them.
Koichi wants us to hold hands before we set off for the park.
So people who see us together know we’re together and all that.
The next puzzle is bigger and might take a bit more time to figure out, but hey, you should know how to connect the loops at a decent rate right about now.
This is a scene that I don’t like. It’s the only scene that I don’t really enjoy being in, just because going from the last scene with all the sakura trees and then this one, makes the entire environment look fake.
I don’t like the grass. I don’t like the trees.
The only thing good in this scene is our foxgirl dressed in a kimono, and maybe the picnic supplies all laid out, but you can’t really look at that anyway.
Koichi is just the sweetest man by giving us sandwiches and sweets to eat.
Despite us being thirsty for his attention, he doesn’t offer us a drink.
The next puzzle is larger and adds in a fourth ring–this one is a light orange that might blend in a little too well with the background depending on someone’s color-blindness, I think. I’m not sure why they didn’t go for a color that was more noticeable, because even I had problems remembering there was an orange ring…on an orange background.
Speaking of us being thirsty before, we’ve finally got our drinks in hand.
And I don’t know where this place is that Miko states is her favorite place. I mean, all we’re getting from the background is the outside of two buildings. One would think it has something to do with the drinks in hand, but maybe not?
A little clarification of where we are would be great.
The both of us start to get a little too mushy for my liking, like someone making kissy faces at you and clinging onto your arm. I’m just not one of those girls. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind PDA in general, but watching people obsess over each other makes me cringe.
That, combined with this writing, really makes me cringe.
Koichi is wonderful, and we’re glad to be here with him, wherever here is, and he states the same, then he asks, “Would you like to drink something delicious from my bottle?”
Boy, my eyebrows raised at his boldness on that one.
I know nobody’s around and there’s alcohol, but simmer down my guy.
Just kidding you filthy-minded folk, he’s got Japanese green tea.
So they both share a drink and talk about seeing each other again, once the day’s ended and our date has come to its conclusion.
In the next scene, our conclusion ends with us sharing our next encounter with Koichi in a bedroom. I mean, the main game features six scenes, and this is our sixth, which means the next comes with the NSFW DLC, so you know what’s gonna happen next.
But that’s the upcoming portion. Let’s stick to the here and now.
This puzzle here is the biggest yet and it’s blocking her body enough that it almost makes you want to believe it’s hiding something, but trust me, it isn’t. This portion of the game is family friendly, just two people finding enjoyment in each other’s presence and going on a date that miraculously sealed their love for each other.
We’re so glad he came to our house, but really, was she expecting him to say no at this point?
And then she mentions her garden and it’s him with his delicious bottle all over again. He’d really like to see it, just like she really wanted to taste that Japanese green tea of his.
This ending scene seems a bit shorter than the other ones we went through. But it’s also a very sweet moment to end on, with her leaning her head on him and him hugging her, the both of them looking out the window.
After this, the game takes you back to the scene selection screen, and if you go further to the right, those are blocked with Miko’s fox emoji face.
Which means, this ends the SFW portion of this podcast episode. But for all you patrons of mine, let’s not let this stop us.
Well I hope you’ve enjoyed this podcast review of the game Date with Foxgirl. I wouldn’t recommend the base game by itself to anyone, but combining it with the NSFW DLC makes it a little more tolerable, seeing as you might actually be getting something out of it in the end.
The base game is just so bad with its writing.
Wholesome, but bad.
Hopefully you enjoy the subtitles of this podcast episode. I’m very aware some people have hearing problems, and I don’t always enunciate my words when I talk fast. Plus, I’m not actually reading what’s on the screen, so the subtitles are helpful in that regard.
But hey, maybe people would appreciate this on videos where I do commentary as well. Not sure.
In any case, I appreciate you sticking around for this podcast episode, and try not to get in too much trouble when you’re having bonding time with someone and have to say, Not Now Mom, I’m Gaming.
