When you discover your game is being discussed over at F95, it's a good time to act. Understandably mixed reviews, but there's definitely things I can work on address, so here we go.
Patch notes, mostly difficulty adjustments:
Deadline moved from 6 to 7 days.
Creature starting health increased from 5 to 7.
Chemical dispenser capacity increased from 30 to 40.
Chemical dispenser minigame slowed down 20%.
Rephrased certain criteria.
Added music and moan sliders to the main menu settings.
Fixed some memory leaks.
Cleaned up some code.
And to my F95 folks:
Hey gang, first off, thank you so much for your feedback on my little game, good or bad, it's all very valuable to me.
I'm taking this weekend to digest it all, and to implement some much needed changes.
First off, a little bit of background; This game was made during a one-week game jam, so yes, it's small, and we don't have a lot of content.
There's simply only so much one can do when making a game from scratch.
But people showing interest in it, makes me want to work more on it, so let's dive into your comments and see what's up. :]
The black squares in the images aren't in the game, right?
Nope, fear not. I just put them on during production for two reason: One, I was streaming the development on Twitch, and while I have systems to censor areas of my screen when working on the game, I don't have it on my browser page.
Secondly, the scenes were literally "all I had" so it's more to keep the reward behind some effort from the player.
Kinda reminds me of LabCoax by DatAnony
A deep cut but I love the comparison <3 The scientist character is also very inspired by Dr. Lily from Subverse.
I do like pixel porn but this one is too much of a puzzle game.HOLY HELL is this game such a massive chore. I just wanna jerk off dude!
Yes, that's fair. I want to design games that aren't just "monkey pull lever, monkey get banana" but I think I swung a bit too far into complexity this time. Also, there's an unintended layer of difficulty atop of it all, which is me not formulating certain game mechanics very well. I will work on this.
Why is she dressed like a whore? Ready for work huh?
She's dress for the monsters you WANT, not the monsters you have ;)
it's not possible to release the canisters from the nutrient thingie. That doesn't bode well...
Hmm that's strange. I tried replicating the issue but with no luck :/ Will keep a look out.
Boring, don't know what to do. Don't care either.
That's fair. Not every game is for everyone.
Y'know concept wise it's interesting, but it's also detestably unforgiving. It needs major balancing.
Yep, you are right. With the short deadline of making the game, balance and playtest was simply scarce. I will be working on making RNG less vital and the game more fair.
I created the Detapod and was disappointed to only see 1 animation after all that effort, game still a WIP and maybe it'll be more rewarding in the future?
I like the scenes but... there is ONE for each creature, and it takes a long ass time to reach that point.
really small amount of H-content in an H-game.
Yeah, sadly we don't have that much meat on the bone right now, but working on exactly that. Not just vertically (more monsters) but also horizontally (more "action" with each monster) plus more lewd scenes throughout the game.
Slow down the container injector thing. Its just a bit too fast.
I did exactly this :)
The descriptions for the conditions are sometimes ... unlucky.
Yeah, English is my third language, and me being very tired during development, things simply didn't come out well. Will be working on this.
I don't understand how most of the comments are people being lost and not understanding how this game works, just read the in-game instruction
Please streamline the monster creation, it's a bit of a headache to play, cool concept though
im intrigued by this game but its hard.
I feel the problem is my poor communication. The game has two layers of difficulty, the intended difficulty by design, and a extra layer of difficulty of "what the heck does the dev want me to do". I will try my best and work on them both.
How beautiful! The pixel art is gorgeously crafted; you can see the dedication and love that went into it. :giggle:
You are a sweetie, DetoKun. Thanks <3
Tell me about it.. I got joint pains n shit lol
Right there with you, man. Where can I get spare spines?
nice
You're nice!
Six day limit what a dumb idea.
it should be 7 days not 6, it's too strict and you know... a full week makes more sense in universe rather than just 6 days?
Yeah, you are right. The six thing was basically just because I had 6 days to make the game, and it's a dumb internal joke for the game jam. But it doesn't make sense, so I bumped it to 7 ^^
The game gives me some kind of Kinky Umbrella Scientist vibe.
Would love to make a Racoon City Secret Lab game if I CapCom promises not to sue <3
hard pass on this woke game
So... Slutty scientist makes monsters so she can get fucked by big monster cocks is now Woke ? I think my games might not be for you...
NEED SAVE
AGREE! Working on that.
next update?
TODAY! You can hop on by our itch page to play directly in the browser or download the latest build.
No sound, no saves, no gallery, no nothing.
No Gallery = (as in replay) is in the game, but F95 circulating an old build, so that's a problem.
No Saves = Working on it. Got CloudSaves working, just need to make binary saves work as well.
No Sound = Huh? The game does have sound, and we recently reworked the cutscene VA. But it could use more, I get it.
I Suddenly become a chemist here bruh
Come for the big monster bang, stay for the free chemistry lesson xD
She did the Monster Mash
Awww yeeeh! Gonna put this on next time I update it ^^
In short, thank you so much for all the comments, I will pull up my sleeves and try to do my best on this. But for those that say the game is not for you, that's fair, but not much I feel I can do about that <3
