Since there wasn't a thread for this, I tried making one.



A new game currently being developed by Hakkaku, the same creator as Mission Mermaiden (

Story: The story is centered around a girl named "Hachina".

You must be registered to see the links

she's looking for "a cure against the insect's disease". Not much is known yet.

Gameplay: An action platformer where you run along the level, jump on platforms, and beat up your enemies with what appears to be a Naginata (Japanese long pole with a sharp curved blade at one end). Enemies can grab you in various situations, perform progressive erotic moves, and drop status effects on you; struggle to escape from these enemies. The circle is well-known for hypnosis and bondage, so expect a lot of those.

Other currently known H features about the game include:

Double-jump and directional dash are a thing now.

Really can't wait until the demo!

And hope there'll be lot more of mouth violation compared to Mermaiden.

 

[Thedeadly]

Extremely excited for this one. Happy to see another game from this dev.

Next year would be impressively fast development for a game, especially a game with only one person working on it.

That's Mizuku's projection for completion. Alpha demo shall be done by late December, and the game released around the same time next year.

 

[Azrail26232]

Mizuku is pretty good at breaking down their workload into month sized chunks, based on the progress reports they've done for this game and the previous mission mermaiden, so I'm inclined to believe they'll be able to stick to it. Schedule slippage did occur in mermaiden, but it was accompanied with a shift in the expected date of release, which shows they had a good idea how much time the additional work would take them. In at least one case the delays were caused by them adding features that were previously unplanned for, that being the world 2 GO hypno minigame, and there's no way to predict that.

 

[Cupio]

A good developer, it's just a shame his fetishes are such a turn-off to me.

Oh yeah I don't disagree. The author should take as much time as they need. It's just that I as a consumer prefer to ignore these things until near release :b.

Wondering if this is a boss attack or a hazard.

Probably triggered in the same way as the seed pods in Mermaiden.

Wondering if this is a boss attack or a hazard.

Glancing at their progress chart from the last Ci-en post, I'm guessing it might be a trap, similar to the tripwires in areas 2 and 3 of Mermaiden.
There's been no progress on H-Events, but since this tweet was made a week after, there's a chance that it might be showing progress on the first H-event?

Personally I feel like it might have been a good idea to wait for a demo before creating a thread, reason I say is because I feel like it might come a long a bit later for this year.
