Sex scenes in this game are usually one still that the camera pans over, whilst the text adds. It's very difficult to make anything about a game even approach erotic, especially concerning the kinds of characters you usually get in video games: Unrealistically proportioned people, doing unrealistically outlandish positions, in a sort of clumsy mechanical manner. The sex scenes are, at least to my eye, hot and extremely graphic. When one of the characters got drunk and tried to make out with me in my room, the options appear: Do you take advantage of him when he can't consent? Do you let him sleep it off in your bed beside you? Do you try to send him away, risking breaking his heart - or worse, that he won't remember it happened? You sit there, paralysed by how much you want these two hotties to do the bad thing with each other, but trying to surmise the absolute hottest way it could happen. The decisions are written so that it is very obvious when they matter. But let it play out, slowly, agonisingly, over a number of days, and over a number of platonic activities and chaste dates, the more you urge your character on the hotter the trysts seem when they arrive. Come on to a character too soon and you will ruin your chances of dating them. The source of these so-called player 'emotions', (yo, what are they?) come from the way the narrative is structured and paced. The writing is so funny and so charming these situations often crept up on me, and with them came emotions that I am completely unused to exercising whilst playing a game. Once over that hurdle, the narrative strands deftly put the player in many moral quandaries, many of which I am familiar with: romantic feelings for a professor, a drunk friend kisses you, men with violent tendencies confront you in a club. Given that the game is called 'Coming Out On Top' I should have expected it to be a 'coming out' story of a sort, but asked by dialogue options exactly how and when to do it filled me with fear and reticence (experiencing it virtually and not having to consider it in real life being a huge privilege of my heterosexuality of course).
#Coming out on top gameplay how to
The very first thing you are asked to do is make a decision on how to come out to your flatmates. The primary virtue of this Ren'Py based visual novel is that it managed on several occasions to make me nervous, make me feel awkward, shy, make me blush or feel even fairly turned on, and it is obvious at every turn that this was the intended effect on the player. In fact there are five different dicks you can choose from.īut Coming Out On Top has many virtues and it's not just super hot dick illustrations (and they are, by the way, pretty magnificent, towering things of variety). And they look like they're having a good time. A hot guy touching another hot guy's dick.
And there's also Anna Anthropy's Sex Cops Of Tickle City, but the dick is in text, which though it's a pretty powerful and fairly erotic experience to play through, sometimes you just want to look at a person touching a dick. And I guess there's also Sepe's Cumshot, the infamous and really quite charming masturbation browser game, which although it does require you to stroke Sepe to the proverbial, it's via a disembodied hand that isn't attached to anyone but your cursor.
#Coming out on top gameplay mod
The last time I saw a decent dick in a game I think it was that Skyrim dick mod I wrote about, and those were just dicks for show.
Hotel Dusk is for 'children' or whatever.
I'd be a lot into seeing Kyle Hyde from Hotel Dusk's dick, rendered in grayscale silhouette, but no. You don't even get to see a brutally hot guy like Geralt's dick. Lamentably, there aren't many good dicks in games. It occurs to me, as my character is in the middle of a quite graphic fantasy about being 'examined' by a hot blonde anatomy professor, that this is the first time I've played a game where someone has touched someone else's dick.
