About Semi-Precious and kind of Reckless

Semi-Precious and kind of Reckless follows Mika, a woman in her early twenties who has left college and is having a difficult time mentally. The story tracks her state of mind and her relationship with her boyfriend, Alex, who encourages her to start therapy for depression. As the therapy proceeds, the narrative examines how it changes the way Mika sees herself and how the couple relate to one another. The opening post states plainly that the game contains unavoidable netorare. The post describes the story as leaning heavily into psychological themes, with Mika's self image as the thread that the therapy puts under pressure.

Version 0.1 is the first public build. It is made in Ren'Py and listed for Windows, Mac and Linux, with English text. No file size is given, and the card records no download links, so the builds come from the developer's page linked in the card. Installation is a simple extraction and run. The opening post also lists an unofficial Italian translation as an extra, marked as not released by the developer and outside the supported build.

The developer notes frame the project as a solo effort that began as a passion project, with no prior game development experience and no prior experience with 3D scene rendering. The game is designed as a kinetic novel, meaning the story is read rather than branched, and the developer explains the choice as a guard against an overambitious project that never finishes, and as a way to go deeper into the story than a typical visual novel. Branching routes and alternate love interests are not planned, the reverse-perspective variant of the theme is not planned either, and different endings may be considered later. The developer expects the result to be a fairly niche game rather than a broad one.

Tags list 3DCG art, a female protagonist, kinetic novel structure, romance, humour and teasing, together with oral sex, handjob, interracial, netorare, cheating and corruption content. The opening post carries a warning for depictions of depression, anxiety, low self esteem and a difficult upbringing. The developer states the aim is a slower, character-led NTR story in which neither partner is written as one-dimensional, and that the pacing is kept concise rather than padded with unrelated scenes.

The build is published on the developer's own page linked in the card, and no mirrors are hosted here. Because the project is a single-developer kinetic novel at version 0.1, later updates are expected to add story rather than replace systems, but the post makes no statement about save compatibility or a release schedule. No price is stated in the post, and the licence terms are not described there either. No minimum system specifications are published for the three desktop platforms.
