Self Portrait

Editorial Has potential

Self Portrait is a kinetic visual novel centered on corruption themes and an elf character paired with an "ugly bastard" archetype — a niche combination that will appeal strongly to fans of that specific dynamic, but will repel others just as firmly. The game shows promise in its art and early execution, though some players note the lack of branching choices and wish for more interactive depth. The current build has minor technical hiccups (menu resolution scaling issues and Windows 10 requirement), but nothing that prevents play; community feedback is sparse and divided, with enthusiasm tempered by the narrow scope of its appeal and unfinished feel.
