HotDays

Editorial Meh

HotDays is a visual novel with striking artwork that draws consistent praise for its visual presentation. However, the game suffers from significant technical instability—multiple players report hard crashes during early gameplay, with at least one detailed error log showing a critical bug in the history screen that makes the game unplayable. Beyond the build issues, community sentiment on the creative side is mixed: some appreciate the character designs and erotic content, but others criticize the writing as weak and complain that the story is thin, with one player noting a preference for "some plot in my porn games" rather than pure content. Notably, the game uses "step-" framing (fake sister, etc.) to sidestep platform restrictions on incest content, which has drawn frustrated commentary from players expecting authentic incest themes. The game is early in development (v1.0/v1.1) and clearly unfinished.
