I can't really say anything good about this, sorry. For one thing, the few words that are present are so poorly written, like English is not the first language, or a middle-schooler wrote them. 

Secondly, the art, even being AI, is horrible. The photos you upload are stretched oddly and not scaled to look right, and the characters are also oddly shaped, with many of them looking somehow both fat and thin at the same time.

Third, the navigation - which is the main gameplay - is atrocious. Even if you get passed how repetitive it is, it is just not fun to navigate; made worse by each new camera type adding more to the repetative loop of "wake up, move to each location, retrieve memory cards, go to room, upload, back to each other room, install camera, back to room, sell photos. It also makes zero sense for him to do. In real life, you can get a small motion-activated spy-cam (otherwise known as a trail cam for outddor models) that directly connects to your phone or laptop or PC so you can have any photos sent directly to your devices and only need to chang it when filled. Why is this dude living in the 80's with his outdated technology?

Also, how is the small bathroom on the 1st floor a locker room changing area when you collect the photos from it? The image when you enter the "toilet1f" is clearly a VERY small space that barely fits the toilet. Even the photos are inconsistent with the spaces they are supposed to take place in.


TLDR: game has no immersion, bad writing, unfun and boring repetitive looping gameplay, bad navigation, and bad art. Can't say it is worth anyone's time to even try this in its current state, sorry.

Wow, that's a lot of words. Thanks for reviewing this improvised game with such seriousness; at least you had fun criticizing it :)

I can't defend from anything you said except the gameplay. Nurse Call from Beel ze bub has even more difficult gameplay with more rooms and cameras with limited recording time, maybe I make it too easy.

In my opinion, I think it could be a lot more simplified. Maybe just have a single button for "collect all media" and another for "reset cameras" after you have already done them once. It can just calculate the time it would take and subtract it from the hours / day. You have a decent concept that strays far from being Janitor of Love (which is good, as individuality is a good thing), but it just doesn't feel rewarding or engaging enough, just... bland and repetitive in a not so good way. I mean, arguably, if we have this predetermined loop where it is just "go to the same locations, extract images, go to room, store images, go back to those locations, install camera, go back to room, upload images", the steps don't need to be so many and can be simplified, since you're doing the same thing each time and the end result is the same where you do each one at a time or just click "collect all / install all".  In fact, why are we re-installing cameras to begin with when it is the memory card you take and not the camera? That just occurred to me. That being said, the security guard should just buy extra memory cards and swap one in when taking the other out. One trip. One and done. No traveling everywhere twice in a day. Two memory cards per camera, so one is always in hand or the PC, and the other in the camera. Or, like I said, just have them direct-send to the PC via motion sensor activated photography (in a purchasable upgrade).

I would also add more info for a lot of things. Such as prices for the cameras and such. You have the "bravery level 30 required" but not how much the cameras cost (or if you do, I never once saw / spotted it). I never felt a need to pay attention to my funds as I always was able to buy whatever I needed by the time I was at the required bravery level to do so, and when I did, the funds didn't drop by much, if at all. The money felt like it was there as a cosmetic, just to be a part of the story in concept. Like "hey, this is a job, don't forget". But it never felt useful or needed, as it was in abundance. Need a photo gallery on the PC to view previously collected photos and keep track of new ones and how many are yet to be found. I'd actually add an entire PC overlay to manage the process. Then, the player could select their favorite image and set it as the in-game PC's wallpaper. A detailed journal of the girls would also nice to have the catalog on, where we could see their job, age, and bio above the collected CCG/TCG style image collection for that girl.

The art, to me, could definitely do with work, as I said. And as I tell most people: perchance.org offers free AI with as realistic or cartoony styles as you want, since it appears you're using AI anyway. Whatever generator you are using is making stretched out and oddly shaped characters. Either that, or something in your programming or adding of the images is.

I also will add that the toilet and stairs are in bad spots. Because a majority of the time, I click on the word boxes to skip text. But, those are where the word box is. So, I end up moving to Stairs1f and Toilet1f often when I don't mean to while spamming, since the "skip" feature is not always functional and sometimes just abruptly stops working even when I have already seen the dialogue (another issue I failed to mention and should be noted, btw, right there).

I also didn't feel invested in any of the chicks. It is voyeurism for the sake of voyeurism, but as a player you don't have a connection with the characters. There is no motivation to feel hopeful that a particular female may pop up. Again, maybe you plan for stories and interactions where you get to know the characters. But in its current state, there is just no feeling of depth or intrigue when it comes to the females - whom all look very similar, I may add, which is also not too great.

I'm not trying to be mean, and I am not angry, for the record. Just want to give an honest opinion. But, like I said before and above, "In its current state". I make sure to use that in my reviews on itch because I know things can change, and many of the times, devs are just laying a very VERY generic concept that lacks 99% of the ideas they wish to add and will be added later. Even the best games can start out poorly during the initial design and test stage. Trial and error makes things work. But, I'm also only one person, so my opinion is not and should not be your sole criticism. I like the concept. I can see a lot of ways this could be a great game if things are added / tweaked.
