New version is update!
In this remake version, in order to make the subsequent development more smoother, we redesigned the game process and abandoned the lengthy content.
We have remade many parts. In order to enhance the story experience, we use the camera animation in the new engine, and have adjusted the art resources.
Start to play the new version:
We will continue to optimize it until it can be officially released!

TLDR; Bad translation, clunky AI, no instruction. Nice art, engaging plot. Extremely uncensored.
Interesting. I wasn't expecting to see a game quite this racy on steam, but it really goes all out.
To get the criticisms out of the way, the translation is really bad, to the point where sometimes it's hard to understand what is being conveyed. I found it annoying that the game doesn't always give you access to the main menu, so you sometimes have to go into a conversation at random in order to load an old save file.
I managed two full playthroughs before I even realized that leveling up my character was possible. The game explains itself pretty poorly.
The sound design is quite bad. Sound effects are random and rarely appropriate, and there's not much music to speak of.
Now that said, the game has some interesting concepts, especially for a visual novel. The story, while told in extremely broken english, is actually quite interesting. The art is mostly very nicely-done, though you can tell which characters got all the love.
The time and resource management aspects of the gameplay were surprisingly engaging, and on my third playthrough I find myself still thinking of new ways to approach progression.
There are quite a few sex scenes, and they're all very lovingly-made. Considering the quality of the translation, they're also all mercifully short.
I knew what I was getting into when I bought this, and I found myself with a little more on my plate than I was expecting, and I fully intend to play it some more, so I am giving a thumbs up.

Interesting concept, good art. I'd just like grammar and spelling corrections made, also becareful the the flashing scene and make a warning about them, as such effects may cause health issues for the player, such as headaches or seizures.

the game is bugged currently even in this final version. CGs can't be seen. No Adult settings, no gallery.
Edit solution:
My window version is 11, it could be different for other version of window but relatively it would be the same.
Here is basically the step you need to do:
Window button is the button between your Left Ctrl button and Left Alt button, it will have a window logo on it.
Press Windown button + R and type in regedit
Press Ctrl + F and type in isadult
Double click on it and change the value in the box from 0 to 1.
Start your game, it should be unlocked now.
Enjoy.

The game is surprisingly deep and there is a lot to explore with its events, story, and dialogue. Being somewhat of a Visual Novel, there is much more to see beyond just one play through. Much of the script and dialogue is in "messy" English and some of the game mechanics are not explained clearly, but these things have been addressed by the developer.
Though the game has some flaws and kinks that need to be ironed out, hence the game being Early Access, there is a lot of mystery around the story and the characters which I am very interested in. I am very excited to see what updates and patches the developer releases and I hope that Tigari remains passionate while working on BlackhoopS!

All it really needs is a grammar fix and a detailed tutorial how to level your relationship and stats. The story has enough mystery to it and I look forward to seeing how it develops over the years.
Very Nice!

Good story, interactive, makes the player think about the choices he makes. cons: translation is sometimes not understandable, from time to time an error pops up when moving through the real world.

Early Access Review:
Pretty good, still needs polishing such as grammatical errors and inconsistent ui.
But the end product is a beautiful art game with a decent 2-3hr long story, thumbs up
Thx,
Bye
