Not sure why we've never thought about erotic games from Thailand, but we just haven't. We've been busy. StudioGU's Angel's Tale should serve as proof that there is a thriving Thai ero game industry complete with freakazoid eyes. Hit the jump for the game's trailer. Be warned: It's cheesy.

The Thai language is just about downright incomprehensible.
Er, so I guess the words were the erotic part?
needs moar ladyboy
@brent_w:
Jeez, one naked Wii video and ya'll are expecting actual payoff from every video posted here. :P
No tentacles? LAYM. Also, it COULD have looked different from the typical j-ero-manga-style. Only the scribbles make the difference...
The starry eyes in the blogpost are creepy.
@Gunhaver:
It's more comprehensible than Arabic?
(No offense to anyone whose native language is Arabic or Thai; it's just that to my untrained eyes, they look like a bunch of squiggly lines... Sorry. @_@ )
@brent_w: At some point, a hand touches the girl's nose.. that may be the erotic part
Sounds like the right genre, though there should be singing so it might be a low budget thailand game. I also see random patches of English. Looks like pretty standard fare
it doesn't seem right when Japanese hentai characters don't speak Japanese...
all hentai and eroge should speak in Japanese...PERIOD!!
The MSN butterfly in the top right had me worrying about broken pixels. Bastard!
It's embarrassing to see people trying to do the anime look to their art while obviously they have nor skill nor talent nor suitable cultural background.
Don't really care for the art.
Those Jigglypuffs looked PISSED.
@Mayu-mayu:
obviously they have no skill nor no talent nor suitable cultural background...
they could have fooled me. remove the text from the video and change the headline and i would have been none the wiser. and i've seen my share of eroge, all on kotaku of course. cough.
Curses, was about to go on a long rant about how Thailand has produced manga style comics for years, but was thinking about the Koreans and their Manhwa.
yea seriously, i wouldn't be able to tell that wasn't drawn by some japanese/anime-fan person. it looks very generic like most anime characters do..
at "1:34", "yeah, I'll give you a reason to be sad, smell my finger."
This looks like it could've come from a Japanese game studio, but was dubbed in Thai. Totally generic, yet I would actually be interested in playing it. Looks like it might have some angels vs. devils fighting. Catfight, rawr!!
By cheesy, do you mean AWESOME!?!!??! In for one, though it does look decidedly less spicy than three star Yellow Curry with Pork.
Sorry to disappoint you, but it isn't erotic game, it's just another visual novel game. There're various groups creating visual novel here but I think none ever took my interest. More notably one beside Studio GU is OTAKU Soft. [soft.otakumagazine.net], which I never interest in their games either.
The first character's name is "Fa" - mean blue sky
Next , "Manari" - I don't know this word, it isn't Thai
"Kalaya" - mean an older sister
"Mitty" - I don't know this word, it isn't Thai
Looks like it's on par with amateur (doujin) works, if not worse...
Of course, anyone with a half-decent writer and artist, along w/ a script programmer and a freeware text adventure frontend could make this stuff. If this actually sells some copies, we could probably expect more (And maybe higher quality in the future) Thai gaming goodness.
Even if it isn't on par with professional japanese eroges, it's at least as good as some doujin games and a lot better than everything that ever came from the west (and Russia, regarding this one RPG from a week ago).
Sorry but I've bought this game almost a year. And had to said that's Thailand haven't got any H-game or what's call "Ero-game" yet. And yes, This game developed by Thai people not just japanese game with Thai dub. This game is just about an Angel and a guy with some kind of power to see such a thing (ghost,angel,demon or somekind of this)
Ps. Sorry If any grammar error . I think that's should be alot in this comment
Ps2. Ehh. I think Arabic is somekind that's really complicated i can't say what different between their letter
Ps3. This game is just somekind of Doujin-Fair or Comic-Party product.
@ビッグ ボス:
No, I'm afraid they screwed up, the characters shown have way too natural proportions. Their breasts need to be double sized for it to have come from Japan.
That may just have been the dumbest thing I've ever seen.
i know the teen thai generation is not so stikt with showing skin but my mum is... she should have tought me more thai when i was younger so i could buy all the thai stuff that looks like japanese stuff during last holidays.
I'm Thai. I've played this game. I know the developer. This is a Thai-language visual novel (You may call it Thai doujin-game), not a Hentai game.
It *is* a doujin game. I've played it. (I'm Thai)
As far as I can tell, This game is something like (not so good) novel game with no erotic scene.
This game is not erotic game. It's just normal visual novel game. Making erotic game in Thailand is prohibit.
The story is good. If you know Thai, don't miss playing it.
Here a link for demo.

Oh! Looks like the blind protagonist made it into this game as well. That increases the chance of ghost cock by 30%! =D
Thailand is like the prostitution capital of the world!
The art looks no worse than most of this kind of stuff that comes out of Japan. Why you people are having a go at it just because it is from Thailand is beyond me.
Oh, and believe it or not, to those who don't read Japanese, it looks like a bunch of funny drawings that don't make sense whatsoever (this is basically most of my family's opinion of written Japanese)
Looking at the few places that appear in the video, it's clearly based on Bangkok... However, during the time I spent over there I never met people like the ones here :P
Anyway, for al the Thai people here: great city, great food, beautiful country :) Loved it!
Pretty close to a sub-par eroge. Not even close to the good ones, though they did try to copy eroge music with some success.
Too subtle though. The only real tip it's a eroge is that faceless guy near the end.
Faceless guys are always = eroge.
Wait, what the hell?! I just watched the trailer and I noticed what appears to be fighting robot chicks?! AWESOME!
My time, I demand it be returned.
WOW what a great mix of RO and quality thai animation!
Were's the American eroge?
So having to watch the video without sound, to me it looked like some super fluffy chick version of guilty gear with those angry enemies from zero punctuation reviews. some kind of sailor moon vs street fighter turbo super dx hd. I'm sure the audio gives it a whole different feel.
I'll just chip in one more for "wow that looks Japanese." I mean, for some reason (almost) whenever a "Western" artist copies the anime/manga/vis.novel style, it's totally obvious, usually in an unflattering way.
Even Manwha has its own conventions that are easy to spot most of the time. Not bad, but visibly of Korean origin.
That game, allowing for variance in the artist's own style could easily have been from Japan. If nothing else, shadows and shading is usually overdone, or there are too many "detail" lines.
Doesn't everyone in Thailand have a hidden schlong? :| I'm afraid to look.
I want to see a ping pong show game! C'mon its Thailand for God's sake!
