Hello it is I, the Hgame Critic, i review Hgames like i would any other games, (sorry if i suck, it's my first day) and i love this game, i loved the battle, i loved the minigame, i loved the art style of the game, and i loved how dates worked, and i loved the story, i was pleasantly surprised by this game, it might be one of my favorite ero games out there. thank you for giving me this experience, i really hope you can find a new artist and get more funding for this game 10/10 from me. let me know if you want me to play your other games and review them to, cause after this one, i gladly will. goodbye, and good day
which at this point feels like a rip off .. I'm wondering how many have wasted their money here and yes, unfortunately I am one of those who have paid for nothing it seems ..
Not many, thats why the project failed to get traction. Melting Point didn't gather enough funds for us to develop it here at the studio full time. Thats why we switched our efforts to lower cost projects in hopes of being able to return to this project once we are more established.
In full transparency Melting Point made like $1000 and that only funded 1 month of development from all of the art, writing, and other assets needed for the project...
Is the paid version 1.1.1? We are trying to keep our games organised by version on our archival drives, so knowing the version is kind of important to us. If the version is shown upon loading the game, then we need boot the game up to see the version, meaning we need to create a temporary folder to run the game from, then create the version folder, shut down the game, and them move them to the final folder.
the lack of the ability to step back one mouse click makes this game unplayable for people like me who suffer from hand spasms as frequently i double click without meaning even though I have a custom setup to prevent this it still happens sometimes . this means i keep skipping important info due to no fault of mine.
Honestly, a top tier game. I'll play it once it comes out. Combat was fun, I liked the brief intervals between the opponent's attack and you being able to block, the mini-games were fun. Character's were pretty cool. Best part was mentioning Platinum, I immediately thought of an R63 Star Platinum, and it'd be funny if that's what inspires the art for Platinum.
Overall great game. Story intrigued me, style reminded me of a game that I can't, for the life of me, remember the name or anybody from it. Got some nostalgia from it because of that.
I truly, honestly, hope you don't give up on this project. Especially considering how much potential the game has, it's already incredible. If I had a few bucks I could throw your way I would.
Absolutely, no doubt about it would pay full price for this. Great story. Also, the idea of a holo-chamber intrigued me. I have a few questions if you can get around to answering them?
Last minute addition that I forgot to add when I posted this, the load buttons only worked sometimes, and after two save slots were used, they took up both autosave slots and I could save over the empty slots. I've read some of the comments, turns out I'm not the only one with this issue.
Edit: If I had money to spare, I'd toss a couple of bucks your way, but I'm a little tight on cash as it stands. Although! I would like to see Platinum's artwork. I half expect a JoJo reference but I won't be disappointed if it isn't. I now resume my wait for the full release.
Hopefully development's going well and happy late New Year!
Thanks for the report, that's really weird. I think the different versions of mac requires having to do that. On my own macOS when I double click the package It works fine so It's really curious.
We're currently working on Act 1 of the game currently. So once we have a few Chapters ready to go we'll be updating the Early Access build here.
The current Early Access build Is to lock in a price. Because as development continues the price for the build will continue to go up until It reaches the full game price we plan to sell It for.
In the meantime you can be on the look out for our current smaller Goblin game project that's being developed side by side Melting Point.
It's smaller in scale and will be updated Monthly because of that reason. We're getting that made so our supporters have something to play in between Melting Point updates because of how long they take.
Thank you for purchasing the game and expect more from us soon.
The current Browser version is 1.0.0. The downloadable version is version 1.1.0 including bug fixes. The new Chapter isn't released yet so the downloadable demo is the most up to date version. You can continue to monitor the progress of next update on Patreon and Twitter.
Here's a theoretical question, Since all members of this alien race have the properties of their namesake element, is there a possibility that Alloy Girls exist?
I know this is a silly question, due to the fact that all of the individuals of this race resemble human females, and I highly doubt that there will be Futanari content in the game.
Overall, a great Demo for the gameplay, but not for understanding how a race that are literally living metal statues would reasonably work,
No Alloy girls are planned for this game all pure elements.
Thank you so much for playing our demo! And yeah we didn't want to bore you with all of the sci-fi explanations in the prologue you'll be slowly learning more about their species as more Chapters release!
This bug has been fixed as of version 1.1.0, it's only currently available through Windows download currently updated browser version will be released soon.
Thank you for the report! That's a known bug and it's been fixed now! The fix will be featured in the updated demo that'll be coming out at the end of the month.
whenever i get 5 hearts on the first scene where your repairing the crashed girl it wont let me progress and just locks me on the sanding screen, i can grope and pet the girl, but nothing else
I remember playing the Demo when you posted it to Reddit a while ago. Can't remember if I gave feedback or not so Here goes.
I like the combat system and how time slows to a crawl when it's your turn to act. There seemed to be a bug though and after finished attacking time would slow to a crawl for way longer than intended (can't remember exactly but like 20+ seconds to a minute maybe) before I'd get a chance to act again. The Reforging mini-game was fun but some of the prompts were not clear on my first few tries. If memory serves, I liked the writing, there was a lot of thought put into their biology and culture which made the "H-scene" dialogue interesting as she softens more and more as she's aroused.
Basically this is interesting, and I'll try to keep an eye on this awaiting more content and stuff :)
Thank you so much for the feedback! We were wondering if anyone ran into that bug, we were hoping it wasn't common but if you got it we fear now that it was more widespread than we once though.
It's fixed now we're fixing up some more bugs before we put out an updated build with all of the bug fixes.
Oh yeah, When I played it, it was a really common bug. I mean it happened to me several times over my playtime and it ruined the whole pace of the combat (which is a shame cause I loved the combat when the bug didn't happen). Not sure if it happened for others tho so I can't say much about that.
Good to hear it's already fixed though. Keep it up, don't forget to take breaks and hydrate. :)
Thank you so much! Hopefully before the end of the month we'll have the new build with the bug fixes up so you shouldn't go through that problem anymore!
I downloaded the newest demo. • When I tried to load from inside the game, it saved and overwrote my file instead. I thought the message was asking if I was sure it was okay to lose unsaved progress, since I was on the file load menu (the one with Autosave and Load on the side). • The 'Exit Game' on the title screen doesn't work.
The demo's haven't been updated yet those are still the same version as the HTML one so that bug hasn't been fixed yet. It's just a small error of the wrong screen showing up, you would have to click what you're trying to do on the left to get the correct interface.
That's weird Exit Game should work, it's on a bit of a delay it doesn't close out immediately.
Those are buttons on the left? Why does the save window have one (it only has one that says save)? Clicking load or autosave on the load screen does not give any indication they are doing anything. No sound or visual cues, nothing.
I hope this is fixed for the update you are currently working on.
To my knowledge, the title screen's load button does work as intended, and just the one during gameplay doesn't.
I finally got the time to review and play some more H games! (No, I'm not dead). I saw this cute game in the works so I took the time to play the demo. Because this is, in fact, a demo, there won't be much for me to say but I'll say as much a I can.
So... Welcome back to another comment of H *clap* Reviews *clap*! I'm gonna look over the demo of "Melting Point" by AstroKaen!
Overall Grade: 30/30 -- Will wait for the official release patiently!
Storyline 10/10:
The storyline is really intriguing to me. I was interested in how people would portray a blacksmith, and more importantly, get it right. And it surprised me to see a metal girl, Tin (We officially have waifus for everything! What a time to be born). and the blacksmith being able to help her. Then there's the on going war which Tin barely escaped from.
In other words, I can't wait to see where this is going! And how much it would develop in the player's eyes from what they received in the demo.
Artwork 10/10:
If you know me from previous comments and such, you'll know I'm a sucker for moe and "cute-sy" art. I would put this art style under that category. I don't have much more to say about it other than it's cute!
Character Development 10/10:
You've heard me say it before but I'll say it again, "I love character development". I saw a lot more spaces for other characters and how the "affection" part of the game progresses the respective characters actions and dialogue.
One of my buddies told me that another small detail (which I would've missed out on if I didn't know that my bud also played this demo) is when you click on Tin when she is "attending". Before you get to know her, she is defensive which changes after you take the time to actually get to know her.
That is one small detail which I appreciate. The game would function perfectly without it but the Devs wanted to put that in.
Conclusion:
This would be one of the few games I am willing to wait for the official release. An interesting and unique storyline, cute artwork, and of course (the best part) good character development! I would recommend this to a friend and I would play it again!
Thanks for reading another review of H *clap* Reviews *clap* So, remember, if you're looking for a cute metal waifu and are looking to fight some aliens to protec her, this is in your forte. That's it from me, until next time.
Oh my god! Thank you for the absolutely spectacular review! I'm so happy the little details we did were actually noticed! Please definitely be on the lookout for the game there's only more to come from Melting Point!
Of course! (As a completionist) I always try to find everything possible! After all, you just gotta respect the amount of effort that goes into games like Melting Point (And if no one does, I will!) And I will definitely keep an eye out for more content on Melting Point!
Keep up the good work! The game is lookin amazing so far!
This game is currently on sale for 25% off… But due to being a pay what you want game—specifically with no minimum price—the sale has no impact on the cost of the product.
That aside, the fact it shows up in the sale listings is a bonus; more people need to see this. If I had money to toss at games I like, I'd toss some this way. What's here so far is great quality and entertainment, in my opinion.
Yep we know! Mainly participating for the meaning behind it and to get more people looking at the game! And of course no problems at all if you aren't able to support monetarily even telling others about the game and rating the project does a lot of good for us!
We've not played it enough yet to give it a rating (We're a busy* woman), and have only done one date that, while it did end well, we had accidently insulted Tin during.
We have a few concerns, but they are entirely due to a lack of knowledge on the full story.
If you are in the itch Discord, shoot us a DM if you wish to fill us in on your story and\\or listen to us ramble about our thoughts and ideas; or if you just want to talk about gaming or such.
We have told a few others about the game, and would love to give more support when able.
Are you in FullScreen? Because if you aren't the UI scaling is all out of wack on HTML for some reason. It's possible that the button ran off screen somewhere.
I'm happy that you enjoyed it! If you could please rate the game and consider sharing it with your friends! Or even possibly become a patron if you're able to

When do you plan to also make an android version of it? It looks awesome, I wanna play it but I only have android
i really hope that tungsten will be added
(because i want to have a power trip at the end)
Ik this is a very late post but since theres a max demo would there ever be a full game for mac?
Hello it is I, the Hgame Critic, i review Hgames like i would any other games, (sorry if i suck, it's my first day) and i love this game, i loved the battle, i loved the minigame, i loved the art style of the game, and i loved how dates worked, and i loved the story, i was pleasantly surprised by this game, it might be one of my favorite ero games out there. thank you for giving me this experience, i really hope you can find a new artist and get more funding for this game 10/10 from me. let me know if you want me to play your other games and review them to, cause after this one, i gladly will. goodbye, and good day
after the battle my screen just freezes
same for me, but i made it full screen and i could continue
played the demo, neat concept, fun gameplay. jw tho how much more does the full version have currently?
Nothing it's a pre buy
which at this point feels like a rip off .. I'm wondering how many have wasted their money here and yes, unfortunately I am one of those who have paid for nothing it seems ..
Not many, thats why the project failed to get traction. Melting Point didn't gather enough funds for us to develop it here at the studio full time. Thats why we switched our efforts to lower cost projects in hopes of being able to return to this project once we are more established.
In full transparency Melting Point made like $1000 and that only funded 1 month of development from all of the art, writing, and other assets needed for the project...
I hope you do return to this at some point, it's a unique concept to a game, one I have yet seen repeated.
fun game hope that it gets expanded on in the future.

Is the paid version 1.1.1?
We are trying to keep our games organised by version on our archival drives, so knowing the version is kind of important to us.
If the version is shown upon loading the game, then we need boot the game up to see the version, meaning we need to create a temporary folder to run the game from, then create the version folder, shut down the game, and them move them to the final folder.
Good!
bug
she was ogs look at the name she have 3 Words (in Minecraft 3 words that mean she ogs )
Great Game, when do you think you're going to continue making more content?
the lack of the ability to step back one mouse click makes this game unplayable for people like me who suffer from hand spasms as frequently i double click without meaning even though I have a custom setup to prevent this it still happens sometimes . this means i keep skipping important info due to no fault of mine.
It's called the log button
im
dead and horny
Is there a character list? Not sure I want to invest my time without knowing what dateable heroines there are.
managed to break an embed by making her take more than 224 damage in training
How is development going?
is the paid version still only the demo? I mean im guessing it is as it has the same file size as the one named demo that you can download for free.
Yes It Is the paid version is a pre-order for when the full game releases
I'm a little stuck, right after the fight with the Fulma, I'm stuck looking at Tin I don't know what to do.
After the fight you can play through Tins first 4 dates and access the hscene after completing the last one!
Honestly, a top tier game. I'll play it once it comes out. Combat was fun, I liked the brief intervals between the opponent's attack and you being able to block, the mini-games were fun. Character's were pretty cool. Best part was mentioning Platinum, I immediately thought of an R63 Star Platinum, and it'd be funny if that's what inspires the art for Platinum.

Hopefully development's going well and happy late New Year!
On Mac I had to get it to work by going in package contents, content, macOS, and clicking the executable there.
Thanks for the report, that's really weird. I think the different versions of mac requires having to do that. On my own macOS when I double click the package It works fine so It's really curious.
This is good and has potential, I can wait but am looking forward to the day when the full version is released.
It could use more save slots though.
Thanks for the compliments!
More save slots is a easy fix lol.
When will the early access build be more than the demo?
We're currently working on Act 1 of the game currently. So once we have a few Chapters ready to go we'll be updating the Early Access build here.
The current Early Access build Is to lock in a price. Because as development continues the price for the build will continue to go up until It reaches the full game price we plan to sell It for.

Thank you for purchasing the game and expect more from us soon.
Thank you for your reply :)
With the price going up, does that mean one has to rebuy early access?
I'll take a look at your other game in the meantime.
Nope since you purchased it now you're locked in for the future!
Our next game will be coming out in October be on the lookout for it!
Any chance you can please make an android version it seems to be a very good game but I only have an android phone
What is the difference between demo browser and downloadable demos? Or how can I download non-demo version from patreon?
The current Browser version is 1.0.0. The downloadable version is version 1.1.0 including bug fixes. The new Chapter isn't released yet so the downloadable demo is the most up to date version. You can continue to monitor the progress of next update on Patreon and Twitter.
Thank you :)

theres a glitch that makes it so when i go to save i cant save a new file and trying to overwrite loads that file
This bug has been fixed as of version 1.1.0, it's only currently available through Windows download currently updated browser version will be released soon.
what do i do when where in the ship
Saving and loading have some bugs. Once I load a save file, save becomes load.
After the mini-game repairing Tin, the cursor remains as in the mini-game.
The art style and voice acting are great.
edit: the bug mentioned above happened in the download version.
Thank you for the report! That's a known bug and it's been fixed now! The fix will be featured in the updated demo that'll be coming out at the end of the month.
Thank you for your kind words!
whenever i get 5 hearts on the first scene where your repairing the crashed girl it wont let me progress and just locks me on the sanding screen, i can grope and pet the girl, but nothing else
Thanks for the bug report! Be on the lookout for a patch fixing many of the current bugs reported!

is the full game out if so where can i play it?
No the game is still in development, this demo was released to garner funding to create the full game.
This is such a good game!!! It's plot is kind of similar to Steven and the Gems from Cartoon Network. Very cool, can't wait for the final project!
Thank you so much! Please if you can rate the game and tell others about it!

Quite the interesting concept. I definitely liked it and would love to play it as a full game someday,
Thank you so much for playing the demo! I can't wait until you can play it as a full game someday as well
I beat the first battle and it just freezes on the attack stats and i cant press anything. Ive reloaded the page and it does the same thing.
Are you in FullScreen? Because if you aren't the UI scaling is all out of wack on HTML for some reason. It's possible that the button ran off screen somewhere.
it worked thank you so much :)
Of course no problem I hope you enjoyed the game!
I enjoyed it a lot great job! :)
I'm happy that you enjoyed it! If you could please rate the game and consider sharing it with your friends! Or even possibly become a patron if you're able to
