Adult-themed Game developer/publisher ILLUSION Closes its doors

Cg writes: For those who enjoy adult themed gaming, the recent news that Japanese developer Illusion Software will be closing its doors in the coming month hits hard. A post on Steam suggests that all activity will end on August 18, 2023 at 10:00 (Japan time). This means gems such as VR Kanojo and Honey Select will no longer be available to purchase in the West, via Steam or otherwise. Illusion’s games have also been compatible with Steam VR, so it will be a shame for these to no-longer be available.

Good. No need to play this nonsense. Be creative and put thought into making real games.

[Godmars290]

Either funny or just odd that you think this is about gaming...

Also not like if what they've made still sells, another company wont buy their "games". That another company, with all the same people, isn't going to pop up over night.

[Huey_My_D_Long]

Booo. I said Booo. Boooooooooooooo
I'll make sure I grab Honey Select. and I'll message you my thoughts and prayers on it.

[ChiefofLoliPolice]

The type of games people enjoy is subjective. When you say "no need to play this nonsense" that's quite arrogant of you to say. Not everyone likes your idea of "real games".

[anast]

No need to worry about what other people like.

“No need to play this nonsense. Be creative and put thought into making real games.”
Do you realize that because of games like those we don’t have to see females with triangles boobs like Lara on tomb raider.
Oh wait you’re too young for that 🤷🏿

[TheEnigma313]

I'm probably older than you. No need for nonsense like i said. Get a real woman

[Phoenix76]

Oh man, I miss Sam Fox's Strip Poker for zx48 and c64 lol

[1Victor]

“I'm probably older than you. No need for nonsense like i said. Get a real woman”

A nice childish dodge you got there, gramps I don’t see anything in response to my comment except for childish attempt to offend 🤷🏿.
Get a real life and stop projecting your inferiority onto others, there’s some good psychologists online that can help you if you let them.
Conversation is over do not expect any response I do not feel like doing your parents job at educating you.

Like I said it’s a lost for the industry regardless of the game genre when a game studio closes down

[ThEusAisPoisonous]

No, it’s not a loss in the slightest.

[CrimsonWing69]

I’m sure there’s idiots that think games you play are nonsense. Don’t be like them.

[FunAndGun]

Oh no, the creeps will have to find new digital fantasies.

[ManMarmalade]

The internet is mostly porn anyways haha

[anast]

We got ourselves a fine Baptist preacher here...

[blacktiger]

You the creep I think

[anast]

@ Black Tiger

It seems. It's the other way around.

[anast]

@ Enigma

You could start a self help YT channel for guys and make millions.

[TheEnigma313]

the need to go talk to real women

[Huey_My_D_Long]

I'm sure you got women lined up waiting for you to get done posturing to other people on the comment section of a gaming news site..
"Why isn't Enigma talking to us or whispering sweet "peg me softly" into our ears, guess he has better people to impress"
Guess what real ladies who are definitely real, He does and he failed

[VincentVanBro]

This guy is pretending he hasn't look at porn before 🤣

[Bhuahahaha]

ahahah the funny part is those guys (the one that tell you to stop watching porn or play eroge), think the people that already have a GF or is married doesnt look at porn anymore 😁😂 a bunch of pretenders 😂😁😂

[IMissJimRyan]

Great news.

[Huey_My_D_Long]

Say what yall want but nobody had H simulators like these guys did.

[MadLad]

How will the games industry continue now?

[Knightofelemia]

Well so much for the Japanese man marries VR wife articles.

[1Victor]

@kight:”Well so much for the Japanese man marries VR wife articles.”

Well look like you’re 6 year too late to the wedding reception 🤣

@ negative comments Regardless of what your “morals say” it’s a sad day when a GAME developer studio closes its door regardless of their genre whether your like it or not it’s a lost for the families that was been supported by their employees and for that they deserve respect not the mockery of some anonymous keyboard online.

I wish their employees the best of luck and hope they find work fast.

[anast]

They should have added gambling mechanics, battle passes, and over priced DLC content to their games.

[dumahim]

Their DLC prices are pretty nuts.

[anast]

It's the combination. They forgot the other stuff.

[Pyrofire95]

The models actually look pretty good. I think the hazy bloom is a bit much tho.

[bunt-custardly]

Damn, the N4G moral police are out in force today. Same ol, same ol they can't just ignore a topic they have no interest in.

[IMissJimRyan]

I have interest. My interest is the end of these japanese games and publishers that promote incest, rape and misogyny.

[bunt-custardly]

Except these games aren't just that. I am not into those things either, but these games have other things that entertain me. It's called having options. it's also called different strokes for different folks or cultures. You cannot operate in gaming, a my way or the highway attitude. It just doesn't work. Therefore, I would suggest you ignore the noise you don't agree with and enjoy the stuff that you do.

I detest barbie horse riding games for example, but I do not frequent where they are popular or any topics of conversation about them with my views that these games are garbage and corrupting players - therefore should be banned. Studios/publishers presenting them to be culled.

Your username at least checks out, except your morals have overcome you to the point you're somewhat closed-minded perhaps due to a lack of understanding or a desire to just focus on negative things?

[Huey_My_D_Long]

WTF? None of those are in the game. This isn't Rapelay. FFS.
God I hate puritanical motherfuckers.
Game where all you do is fuck people and you guys get all fucking uppity, meanwhile the vast majority of popular games today have you commit 1 person genocide.
I'm not saying yall should start complaining about Violence in games, cause those fuckers are wrong and annoying as well, but its fucking stupid when sex upsets yall so much but not a damn peep about. Priorities seem skewed

Morals are like penises man, Everyone loves their own, but doesn't need others forced upon them.
Also my Morals is bigger than yours :D

[PapaBop]

You'll protest all those things then go back to your game mass murdering things. Remember, misogyny is bad but mass genocide is acceptable!

[Binarycode]

This is the only type of game that you need tissues.

[XiNatsuDragnel]

That sucks I wish they didn't close imo

[cammers1995]

Good riddance.

[TheEnigma313]

agreed

[mastershredder]

I Like how Rob throws everyone at Cramgaming into his spankbank gaming habits.
"We’re still not entirely sure if Illusion will rebrand and continue to produce and sell games in its native Japan only."

Who 's We're? 'Cuase you all alone in this Rob Mc Spankerson.
