Just wondering, but do you plan on possibly adding images of the parasites at some point? would be kinda neet to see them on the girls, but if not, all good.
But if you were planning on it, I had an idea for a cursed class; Broodmother
Basically, the idea is the girl in question has all parasites attached as gear, with the playstyle being a tanky controller (ie. alot of the parasites increase hp, hence the tanky mention, but the idea is they infect the enemy, and while infected they gain debuffs and grant lifesteal to any of your girls who hit them) also a potential new parasite; a penis parasite (basically, while attached to a girl, the count as having a penis, and grant a grab attack when fully matured).
Anyway, just some ideas that wouldn't get out of my head, looking forward to what comes next, keep up the good work. o7
I would love it if one of the class changes in the game made your adventurer into a ratkin or some other kind of monster. ratkin would make the most sense perhaps since it's the type that appears everywhere, but I would also enjoy it if some other monster type was able to do that. but that's just me. Is that gonna happen or is it unlikely?
Yo, thought I'd send you a message about your Patreon page. As per their guidelines they don't allow nudity on public pages/posts and pages with it should be marked as 18+ or you may get your page put under review. Getting put under review isn't fun as it may take Patreon weeks to check the status of your page after changes has been made.
Your previous game had a way to skip content the player wasn’t comfortable with. Will there be something similar to turn off things like parasites and pregnancy?
I will add something like that eventually. But currently there isn't really enough content for it. So expect it to arrive sometime just after the current roadmap is finished.
In 2.6,there is a equipment called armbinder wich need the class ponygirl to equip,so that it means I can't use it now and this class will appear in the future?
This game is very solid and very enjoyable! Well done and i'm looking forward to the next updates to it.
When the enemy equips your crew, the currently worn items are lost. Could we get the chance to loot them back after winning vs. the current enemy team, so hard to come by items can be reaquired, sacrificing a loot slot for it?
Suggestions: When the dog resolves his grapple on your girl without you interrupting it and the process, the girl is returned without a state. Why not make her stunned and maybe add some animation/graphic to the dog finishing?
I'd do the oviposition move of the spiders in the same way the dog interacts with the girls. Grapple and then continously fill 'em up.
When the enemy equips your crew, the currently worn items are lost. Could we get the chance to loot them back after winning vs. the current enemy team, so hard to come by items can be reaquired, sacrificing a loot slot for it?
Any worn items are returned to you at the end of the dungeon, you'll see them pop up at the guild inventory. Though there were some bugs with that in versions before Alpha 2.5.
I'll take your suggestions into account, but I don't want the grapples to be too strong. Though a boss is planned that will do exactly as your second suggestion.
For me it seemed to work for normal items correctly, but not for items that are still cursed. I lost several plugs to this, but i'll have another look at it.
it also takes multiple battles for boob size to increase even just by 1 size. not sure if that is intentional or a bug, but its been like that a while so my guess is that it was intentional.
Any more details? Can you send me the files in %APPDATA%EroDungeons/logs in the discord? And if you can get it to crash consistently, also your save found in %APPDATA%EroDungeons/Saves.
By now I've found an issue where the game crashes if you try to push back a ratkin spiderrider who remains as only combatant. Nothing else so far. The previous version could crash if you hovered the wrong space during combat. So crashes should be less frequent.
(Intended for this to be a review but the review window doesn’t let you paste text into it.)
An impressive start. Clearly still WIP but the foundation is solid. Art is simple, but abundant and consistent. Gameplay is a little grindy but that might just be the current lack of content.
Couple of issues:
Don’t know if it is a bug or an unexplained mechanic but sometimes after a battle the party order gets randomised.
No curios spawned except for in the tutorial, yet you can still waste money buying curio-interacting equipment.
Suggestions:
Prisoner (and other force-class) gear should be easier to unlock, but also easier for enemies to apply. Have it so you only need to complete one development quest to remove, but only need one or maybe two (one for novice / adept, two for veteran+?) pieces to get forced into the class. And possibly have enemies apply equipment passively when they hit a low-durability target. That makes it an ongoing thing to manage rather than a straight ‘this character is now a prisoner for the foreseeable future’.
Have each level of a class provide some permanent benefit rather than just the last. And display what static benefits having a class active provides. This also ties into the above as you can have Prisoners, maids etc have negative permanent effects that characters would slowly accumulate as they are forced to learn the cursed classes.
Cursed items should stay uncursed. If you are going for a ‘powerful but with drawbacks’ approach rather than just having them but trash to get rid off then making them as swappable as other equipment once ‘earned’ will help a lot.
Related to something on the roadmap: Ponies giving more inventory space is extremely powerful. A good chunk of the game will be farming runs and even on novice level it is very rate to finish a run before running out of inventory. Consider either expanding the base inventory so one extra slot isn’t so powerful or scrapping ponies giving more space, unless you want 90% of teams to be three ponies and one healer.
It's indeed best to put it here. Actual reviews with the rating are very hidden and only visible to the dev.
The first bug and last suggestion are included in Alpha 2.5.
The second bug is just a temporary thing until I rework the curio system.
I'll take your other suggestions into account, especially the pony balance one. The second one is an interesting perspective, making the cursed classes negatives instead of positives would be a large overhaul though.
Seems the game updated the day after I downloaded, sorry for pointing out stuff you already fixed.
The cursed classes don’t need to be outright negatives, but having the same ‘power with drawbacks’ as cursed items is viable. And it lets you make them a bit more thematic. Examples:
Prisoners might give one damage resistance if they are wearing any locked gear, but reduce item durability by five percent. So they are stronger when imprisoned but more likely to end up in that position. Maid levels could give a tiny heal whenever a debuff is removed but slightly reduced resistance to debuffs, so they are better maids but worse every other class. That sort of thing.
The Lust requirements of the Prisoner class don't really seem to work: I cannot use Lustful Tackle, Meat Shield and Exasperated Moan as long as I haven't equipped the full Set, while Lust Explosion can be used all the time, and doesn't reset the Lust afterwards. Additionally, there is a graphical glitch if you equip the Mittens Set without the Anklecuffs of Captivity, that positions the arms as if the Yoke Set was equipped.
Yep, these two (and the WASD movement) are known bugs, and will be fixed next update.
There's a discord at https://discord.gg/fkc93R6sYe btw, if possible, you can make your bug reports there. It makes it easier for me to respond and keep everything in the same place. (but don't be afraid to double post bugs though, better safe than sorry)
I have noticed that you'll jump out of map if you try to use wasd in the guild/mission selection. In mission selection, this creates a softlock, as long as you haven't selected a mission beforehand.
had a question, i've seen equipment for jobs such as maid & ponygirl, but i haven't figured out how to unlock or access them. are they accessed through items being equipped to your character or something or are they just not yet in the game? whats the deal with them?
on other note, I've noticed a bug where sometimes the option icons in the bottom right sometimes get a bit jumbled. usually when i have a party. i tried going into dungeons with singular characters and it works just fine. its only when i have a party. not sure if its caused by having certain job types or just specific characters.
In 2.4.1 my units keep being shuffled around after combat. Usually it's a warrior in the front moving to the back, which is a very nasty surprise for the next fight. May be related to right-clicking a unit during combat to check their advancement goals?
ok glad to hear this has already been noted, i also had this bug happen and its really irritating because i keep forgetting to reorganize them after my fights. XD
If I'm not wrong the currently highest base stat upgrade is drastically worse than the second highest upgrade (pretty equal in low stat probability but limited to 18 instead of 20). I've created an anydice of the current probabilities, trend-continuing alternatives inclusive:
In 2.4.1, upgrading the tavern building to allow for more guests while unit(s) are already assigned as guests will cause those assigned units to disappear and become inaccessible (the guest slots they previously occupied in the tavern will show as empty) until after the next mission when they reappear in to the roster.
Indeed, the tavern job changes to a different one (with better lust reduction) between upgrade two and three. If you put them there permanently, they can even get lost. Will be fixed in the next update.
I purposefully cask of Amontillado'd a few recruits like that... y'know ...for profit.
Just so you know they will still earn 10 gold each day regardless of other upgrades to the tavern which was kinda disappointing as I was hoping to be able to use this method to get a full 8 guests in the tavern.
With 2.4.1, after every battle the party order is offset such that the back moves to the front and everyone else moves back a space.
E.G. [4 3 2 1] => [3 2 1 4] or if you only have 3 in party [3 2 1] => [2 1 3]
Edit: This isn't perfectly consistent... I had the above case for three dungeons in a row, but this dungeon has been [4 3 2 1] => [4 2 3 1] after every battle.
The only difference might be class composition? For the first three I had; [Mage Rogue Cleric Warrior] lineup For the most recent one: [Ranger Mage Cleric Prisoner] lineup
Also note that this re-ordering affects the "pre-battle" order, and doesn't reflect any changes to party order due to moves used in battle... It seems like the game is trying to restore the party order from before the battle but is shifting the party lineup by one place when doing so.
I had the impression that the post-battle party lineup is influenced by the characters and their classes and levels. At least it only changes once I level up or switch one of my characters and also returns to the previous lineup as soon as I switch back. Otherwise I can see little logic behind it. It doesn't depend on hp and durability, but it seems to prefer prisoner, cleric or rogue at the forefront
The game stored the order before starting the battle. But it wouldn't clear it after ending the battle. So your order would always be the first order of your first battle (even if it was in a different dungeon). It also didn't get saved.
(Found on version 2.3) When a prisoner reaches level 3, you can remove the cursed equipment, but if you put it on again, you will not be able to remove it, since reaching level 3 will be required again.
So found two bugs so far the first is my front person is moved to the back line after the first fight and must then be manually moved forward after each following fight for the rest the dudgeon run and the second is something I have noticed for a for the last two versions is that there are no Curio Events at all with the only exception being the tutorial dungeon when you start a new game.
Curio events are disabled while being reworked. The party order thing is also way worse than just front line getting pushed back, I think its tied to puppies knockback but not certain, Ive had my entire party shuffled several times. My best guess is that a knockback affect is persistently pushing back their position in battle, so you can reset their spot out of battle in the out of combat battle formation, and they will use that formation to start in battle, but each turn it pushes them back in the out of combat battle formation, so after the fight suddenly the character is in the back again. So one a effect isn't clearing, and two a pushback is effecting the out of combat formation which it shouldn't. Its worth noting the push back is consistent in how it changes the party positions and the reason I suspect puppies is while I wasn't fully tracking it, they show up about as often as the effect and have a push back attack.
The party order thing is also way worse than just front line getting pushed back
I've given up on simply bugfixing that piece of logic, and instead wrote a piece of code that verifies every combat whether something went wrong and warns me about it.
By now, I've found two bugs surrounding it. The primary one being that while it stored your initial starting order before combat (so it could reset it later), it would never clear that list. So you'd start every subsequent in the same position as your first combat, which becomes worse if that includes some girls that aren't even in the active party anymore since it persists between dungeons.
I expect some more bugs surrounding it will pop out of this check while I work on other stuff.
A few bugs. So after importing as I wanted to keep items and guild stuff even if losing all characters, it saves, but on the main screen still shows the waring of this is a older save when booting again, so its not updating that it is now a 2.4.1 save, everything saves and loads fine, just that that warning is left.
Now one thing that isnt saved is the other bug, if you locked adventures in as maids or tavern it does not keep them locked upon loading so you have to relock them. I am assuming this isn't tied to updating a save, but it could be. Also could we have the lock option in the training grounds, when I am leveling stats I often do it back to back with waiting, so locking them in the job slots even if I have to reselect which stat would be nice. Hell there is objectives that ask for working at training or patients that it would be nice to keep them there. Ideally you could lock them in with currently selected stat to be trained as well as just in general locked in.
The last bug is which the levelup commanded, I tried to level up a prisoner, but nothing happened, I used the command in 2.3 after you mentioned it and it worked then, so looks to me like it has trouble raising the level with the new way they are saved.
also this was a oddity, on a prisoner they were able to use orgasm with belt of denial equipped, later put it on a cleric and it blocked them from orgasming as intended. If I replicate it again will update further.
My party order has been just randomly changing constantly, Its really odd, changing the order out of combat only changes it for a fight and it just reverts after that, moving them in the fights also isn't saved, perhaps a move or somthing changes the positions in a way that is persistent.
Estrus is missing from the tool tips
Had a prisoner with the goal start 20 turns blinded, they were blindfolded but it didnt go up at all, dungeon was high enough level and another goal was completed in that run so was just that goal.
I seem to be encountering a glitch where the ratkin tries to palce an item, even if my character is clothed. Then it reads "false" and the game crashes either immediately or the next turn.
Could it be that the clothed character was either taunting, guarding a girl that could get equipped, or a girl that could get equipped was stealthed?
If so, I think I know what causes this. Taunt, guard, and stealth change the targetting, after the move is selected. So Equip thinks it can equip something, but gets rerouted to another target where it can't equip anything and then breaks.
Edit: I did some further testing and that's seems to be it. It doesn't show in my dev build, but in the Export build it also gives the "false" and crashes the game. No need to send the save or logs anymore.
If possible, upload a zip file of your saves in %APPDATA%/EroDungeons/Saves, as well as the logs from %APPDATA%/EroDungeons/logs you can use Catbox to upload the files.
the download links were broken for me so i had to use an alternative download link, and my characters didn't seem to orgasm even at max lust (which was pretty bad since they had cursed equipment that required them to)
i think there should be place where you can pay some money to remove cursed and locked equipment from adventurers.
Orgasm certainly works in version 2.4 (though it was broken in versions 2.1 and 2.2). What could be the case is that you have a quirk that bans orgasms (or an item or crest). I hadn't really thought about that.
But yeah, a backup way of removing cursed gear is a good idea.
love the game, can't wait to see where it goes. I honestly hope development continues. even as is, the game is actually really fun (despite various bugs). really looking forward to the characters randomly disappearing bug getting fixed. it sucks when one of them is one of the four i put most of my work into.
Edit: Good news. the characters that disappear might not be gone for good. i almost lost my cleric, but noticed the number of characters i had, hadn't decreased. so i closed and reloaded after getting an extra character from recruiting (i had 1 spare space left luckily) and my character showed back up upon returning. i had closed and reloaded a bunch of times before that but that didn't seem to work, but who knows, maybe it's just a coincidence & you need to close and reload a bunch. hope this helps nonetheless.
That actually is fixed in Alpha 2.4. Apart from some bugs surrounding characters disappearing being fixed, characters are now stored in a central location in the save file and are only removed there if you dismiss or abandon them. So even if something goes horribly wrong, you can always get them back by save editing.
I think I found a bug or at least some strange behavior. When an adventurer looses a locked quirk after a successful mission, the same quirk is instantly replied. See the attached image, here it happens to Tomo with the Gag Fetish. I guess this is somewhat intended, since the quirk is locked and should not be lost, but it looks like a bug.
I think there needs to be different ways to deal with Capitivity gear. Gear gets equiped really fast, and reaching level 3 Prisoner can take forever.
Development Goals also need some attention, in particular rerolling (maybe including current level progress too, just to make it not to easy), as some combinations are unrealistic to complete with reasonable effort. I know Dismiss and re-recruit another adventurer is a ghetto to reroll, but ...
Both Problems are connected and could be solved by specific Building/Improvements. No freebies.
I think you can get kidnapped if one DoT falters you and a second one ticks. If so I'd suggest changing that to a single check no matter how many dots are applied, as there is very little to no counterplay possible (compared to multiple consecutive attacks that could be guarded or healed in between).
Regarding the Roadmap: Maybe include a Fetish factory/Trader in the specific Buildings aswell? Can be a bit frustrating to wait for NPCs to equip/drop the right items.
I would like to add I have had a single type of dot (think it was punish) do its damage as two ticks, most likely do to being applied different turns. First tick caused falter, second capture.
Now I actually am ok with that do to how you can just keep healing a character out of falter rather reliably. The real problem is that there is just no counter. On top of that there is little incentive to continue the fight and risk other characters, a simple solution would be that if your character get captured and you defeat the current enemies your downed character just gets sent back to base, if you retreat they are captured. I do also think some of the heals need tweaks, like the clerics single target heal is pretty weak, the mage heal can be so much stronger, that feels odd even if the mage heal can cause a dot, but I have abused that heal quite a bit, I use it on a prisoner meat shield who has taunted and has high defense keeping them topped off, the enemies are not downing her in one round, then on her turn the heat damage drops her to falter, but I just heal her to full as I dont care about the dot, but that multiple dots can punish that sort of thing and make them a threat is good, and you can keep track of them and keep healing up so it doesn't falter, so most of the time its enough, its just that it can sneak up on you, and that there is very little ways to stop it once the dots show up, which is why I think a way of saving them is a better option. You also could retreat if you see the dots are going to down them like that.
Yeah, that's just not how it's supposed to work. Every dot is stored separately internally, so the way it is programmed in Alpha 2.3 works as you mention. It's overpowered and will be changed to only trigger once.
The mage heal is very RNG though. It heals between 0% and 80%, with the chance of applying a dot, so it's only worth it on high HP targets.
Hi! I'm trying to make a mod (of the tech demo, yes), but am having trouble editing the pck file without breaking it, I touch anything in there and the game refuses to launch. Any idea how I might go about doing that?
I don't think "Start turn with token Faltering" should be a level-up goal.Half my roster had it. They're gone now, either because they were attacked multiple times in the same turn, or because they had multiple DOTs. In either case they melted before taking a turn. Seriously, I dismissed an Adept Cleric because their goals were "Kill 20 enemies, start 2 turns Faltering, start 20 turns Silenced".
Also have a Mage who needs to "Follow 5 hypnotic suggestions" and "End dungeon dealing 300 damage". Does a single Adept dungeon have 300hp worth of enemies?
Need a way to remove Prisoner gear other than advancing in the class, or make it less onerous. A Warrior with any two items of Captivity is effectively deadweight. ...And now my Veteran Warrior is a Novice Prisoner in the middle of a Veteran dungeon.
Curios have been removed temporarily while I try to implement something that works better.
There's a lot of bugs related to the Prisoner class and the uncursing that probably makes the whole process a lot more arduous. That should be fixed soon.
I'll also add a way to reroll development goals (and tone some of them down a little).
Also, multiple DoTs will trigger faltering checks only once in the future.
1) Equip a blindfold, that forces the blind token. One dungeon should do it. Will work better once gear doesn't get cursed again if you unequip it after cursing, oops.
2) Not implemented, oops.
3) Barely implemented, there's only one enemy that applies that now, oops.
So I have done the start turn faltering several times, you really just need to leave a enemy alive, the peasants, mages and mortar enemies can only target the front most if they are in the front. So I just let them falter the part member then move them back. None of there attacks inflict dots, just be mindful of lust to avoid heat dot. There is also a underwear that lower capture chance by 30% which is very good for that goal. It takes a moment, but is quite easy to pull of if you bother to focus it, honestly its one of the easier goals.
my friend mentioned the acting sounded so deadpan/unemotional for some of the lines the characters were saying. specifically, it mostly was mentioned when lines were delivered during & after combat.
I assume you mean that you used the console to add gear, which then went to fill up the provision slots, blocking you from starting a mission.
You can find your saves at %APPDATA%/EroDungeons/Saves, look for your Profile and find the main.txt file. Replace the number after "current_save" with an earlier number to roll back to a previous save. That should let you continue playing.
Edit: If you're playing on Web your save is fucked though.
No plans for that. At least not for the normal dungeons.
Everything is possible in the final lewdest dungeons of course, but that's still far far away.
Also, I originally wanted to make kidnapped allies show up as enemies (once you abandon them or they get to max corruption). But I didn't find time to implement that.
Great update, played it for a while and it was pretty good but there were some memorable bugs:
1. Switching classes isn't saving the progress of the class switched from, including prisoner. So if a character gets switched to a prisoner forcefully, the previous class progress is lost. This also means if a character becomes a prisoner multiple times, they need to start from novice every time to un-curse anything.
2. Characters who haven't been recruited yet can still be stripped by opening the clothing menu on an owned character then right clicking on the un-recruited one.
3. I don't know if this is intentional or not, but for a character who has a development goal to have some sort of job in the town, you need to go to the proper level dungeon while that's happening for it to count - which I find sort of weird since that character is just staying home.
4. The "Masturbation Lover" quirk doesn't properly replace the move
I also have some suggestions as well (feel free to ignore them, though):
1. It would be nice to have a reliable way to dodge enemy equips when you don't have clothes on; probably by being tied to one of the save stats, as otherwise I find it hard to use a character with the exhibitionist trait well before they lose their class anyway.
2. Sliders to control various volumes instead of just mute/unmute
3. An option to "abandon" a character who has been kidnapped (otherwise I find myself rescuing them only to immediately dismiss them as I don't want to bother getting them out of the prisoner class)
4. An option to keep people in town positions until you remove or replace them (I keep forgetting to put maids every time personally)
Thanks for the bug reports, I'll fix them. Except (2), it's probably easier if I just make those starting gear already unlimited at the start.
I'll also implement your suggestions eventually. Except (1), exhibitionism already works with gear that doesn't cover boobs or crotch (such as the bondage suit).

I don't know what you're talking about. The page is 18+ and there are no public posts.
The banner page, although it looks like it's been altered since I posted.
Ah yes, I changed it just to be certain after your comment.
Good to see more content.
Your previous game had a way to skip content the player wasn’t comfortable with. Will there be something similar to turn off things like parasites and pregnancy?
I will add something like that eventually. But currently there isn't really enough content for it. So expect it to arrive sometime just after the current roadmap is finished.
the little spiders don't grow up in the 2.5.1 alpha, idk if you meant to do that or if it's a bug
Yeah, that's a bug.
In 2.6,there is a equipment called armbinder wich need the class ponygirl to equip,so that it means I can't use it now and this class will appear in the future?
Yep, indeed.
This game is very solid and very enjoyable! Well done and i'm looking forward to the next updates to it.
When the enemy equips your crew, the currently worn items are lost. Could we get the chance to loot them back after winning vs. the current enemy team, so hard to come by items can be reaquired, sacrificing a loot slot for it?
Suggestions:
When the dog resolves his grapple on your girl without you interrupting it and the process, the girl is returned without a state. Why not make her stunned and maybe add some animation/graphic to the dog finishing?
I'd do the oviposition move of the spiders in the same way the dog interacts with the girls. Grapple and then continously fill 'em up.
Thanks for playing!
Any worn items are returned to you at the end of the dungeon, you'll see them pop up at the guild inventory. Though there were some bugs with that in versions before Alpha 2.5.
I'll take your suggestions into account, but I don't want the grapples to be too strong. Though a boss is planned that will do exactly as your second suggestion.
Regarding the worn items:
For me it seemed to work for normal items correctly, but not for items that are still cursed.
I lost several plugs to this, but i'll have another look at it.
Played 2.51
cow bikini and ears dont incrase boob size, its bad ((
They do, but the largest boob sizes aren't in the game yet. So they'll turn flat at that point.
it also takes multiple battles for boob size to increase even just by 1 size. not sure if that is intentional or a bug, but its been like that a while so my guess is that it was intentional.
when hero in cocon he dont have move and skip turn
because of this, the sword of pacifism is unrealistic uncurse
It took me a while to decypher this, but I think I understand the problem. I'll see what's feasible to be more lenient on that uncurse goal
sorry for my bad english
mastrub+ dont uncurse cupids bow? please fix it ;)
Will be fixed next update.
do you have Patreon?
Soon.
I'll have one up next update.
Now I have one btw.
okay, I just need to put some money on my card bc I was lazy to do so
next week I will buy it
very good game, but I have a big problem because the game keeps crashing randomly in fights idk why
Any more details? Can you send me the files in %APPDATA%EroDungeons/logs in the discord? And if you can get it to crash consistently, also your save found in %APPDATA%EroDungeons/Saves.
let me try the new version, if it keeps crashing im gonna send it in DC to y
By now I've found an issue where the game crashes if you try to push back a ratkin spiderrider who remains as only combatant.
Nothing else so far.
The previous version could crash if you hovered the wrong space during combat. So crashes should be less frequent.

Thanks for the feedback/review!
It's indeed best to put it here. Actual reviews with the rating are very hidden and only visible to the dev.
The first bug and last suggestion are included in Alpha 2.5.
The second bug is just a temporary thing until I rework the curio system.
I'll take your other suggestions into account, especially the pony balance one. The second one is an interesting perspective, making the cursed classes negatives instead of positives would be a large overhaul though.
Seems the game updated the day after I downloaded, sorry for pointing out stuff you already fixed.
The cursed classes don’t need to be outright negatives, but having the same ‘power with drawbacks’ as cursed items is viable. And it lets you make them a bit more thematic. Examples:
Prisoners might give one damage resistance if they are wearing any locked gear, but reduce item durability by five percent. So they are stronger when imprisoned but more likely to end up in that position. Maid levels could give a tiny heal whenever a debuff is removed but slightly reduced resistance to debuffs, so they are better maids but worse every other class. That sort of thing.
download link seems to be broken. gives error messages.
Do the downloads in this link: https://madodev.itch.io/ero-dungeons-downloads?secret=RndckaPMFEopWXHDyTdwHtubY work?
I'm in a dungeon and for some reason i can use just one ability, it's a bug?
Are you wearing a hyperfocus visor (which gives permanent strength at the cost of only being able to use one ability)?
hmm yes, thanks for the feedback!
Sorry for the inconvenience.
The Lust requirements of the Prisoner class don't really seem to work: I cannot use Lustful Tackle, Meat Shield and Exasperated Moan as long as I haven't equipped the full Set, while Lust Explosion can be used all the time, and doesn't reset the Lust afterwards. Additionally, there is a graphical glitch if you equip the Mittens Set without the Anklecuffs of Captivity, that positions the arms as if the Yoke Set was equipped.
Yep, these two (and the WASD movement) are known bugs, and will be fixed next update.
There's a discord at https://discord.gg/fkc93R6sYe btw, if possible, you can make your bug reports there. It makes it easier for me to respond and keep everything in the same place. (but don't be afraid to double post bugs though, better safe than sorry)
I have noticed that you'll jump out of map if you try to use wasd in the guild/mission selection. In mission selection, this creates a softlock, as long as you haven't selected a mission beforehand.
had a question, i've seen equipment for jobs such as maid & ponygirl, but i haven't figured out how to unlock or access them. are they accessed through items being equipped to your character or something or are they just not yet in the game? whats the deal with them?
on other note, I've noticed a bug where sometimes the option icons in the bottom right sometimes get a bit jumbled. usually when i have a party. i tried going into dungeons with singular characters and it works just fine. its only when i have a party. not sure if its caused by having certain job types or just specific characters.
Those aren't implemented yet. There's a devlog with a roadmap that gives an indication of when they will be in.
just took a look, ngl, super hyped for everything :D
i look forward to seeing this game grow
In 2.4.1 my units keep being shuffled around after combat. Usually it's a warrior in the front moving to the back, which is a very nasty surprise for the next fight. May be related to right-clicking a unit during combat to check their advancement goals?
Known bug. Will be fixed next update.
ok glad to hear this has already been noted, i also had this bug happen and its really irritating because i keep forgetting to reorganize them after my fights. XD
If I'm not wrong the currently highest base stat upgrade is drastically worse than the second highest upgrade (pretty equal in low stat probability but limited to 18 instead of 20). I've created an anydice of the current probabilities, trend-continuing alternatives inclusive:
https://anydice.com/program/31937
Yep, that's a typo. It's supposed to be 6d5 - 2 instead of 5d6 - 2
In 2.4.1, upgrading the tavern building to allow for more guests while unit(s) are already assigned as guests will cause those assigned units to disappear and become inaccessible (the guest slots they previously occupied in the tavern will show as empty) until after the next mission when they reappear in to the roster.
Indeed, the tavern job changes to a different one (with better lust reduction) between upgrade two and three. If you put them there permanently, they can even get lost. Will be fixed in the next update.
I purposefully cask of Amontillado'd a few recruits like that... y'know ...for profit.
Just so you know they will still earn 10 gold each day regardless of other upgrades to the tavern which was kinda disappointing as I was hoping to be able to use this method to get a full 8 guests in the tavern.
With 2.4.1, after every battle the party order is offset such that the back moves to the front and everyone else moves back a space.
E.G. [4 3 2 1] => [3 2 1 4] or if you only have 3 in party [3 2 1] => [2 1 3]
Edit: This isn't perfectly consistent... I had the above case for three dungeons in a row, but this dungeon has been [4 3 2 1] => [4 2 3 1] after every battle.
The only difference might be class composition?
For the first three I had; [Mage Rogue Cleric Warrior] lineup
For the most recent one: [Ranger Mage Cleric Prisoner] lineup
Also note that this re-ordering affects the "pre-battle" order, and doesn't reflect any changes to party order due to moves used in battle... It seems like the game is trying to restore the party order from before the battle but is shifting the party lineup by one place when doing so.
I had the impression that the post-battle party lineup is influenced by the characters and their classes and levels. At least it only changes once I level up or switch one of my characters and also returns to the previous lineup as soon as I switch back. Otherwise I can see little logic behind it. It doesn't depend on hp and durability, but it seems to prefer prisoner, cleric or rogue at the forefront
The game stored the order before starting the battle. But it wouldn't clear it after ending the battle. So your order would always be the first order of your first battle (even if it was in a different dungeon). It also didn't get saved.
sorry im late to the new patch but i've just gotta know what the combat music is!
Also, whenever i try to retreat mid combat the game crashes
Should be fixed in the latest version.
Music is Rob Gasser - Supersonic. Same as in Ero Witches.
awesome, thank you
(Found on version 2.3) When a prisoner reaches level 3, you can remove the cursed equipment, but if you put it on again, you will not be able to remove it, since reaching level 3 will be required again.
Should be fixed in version 2.4.1.
I love the corruption of prisoners mechanic!
Thanks!
So found two bugs so far the first is my front person is moved to the back line after the first fight and must then be manually moved forward after each following fight for the rest the dudgeon run and the second is something I have noticed for a for the last two versions is that there are no Curio Events at all with the only exception being the tutorial dungeon when you start a new game.
Curio events are disabled while being reworked. The party order thing is also way worse than just front line getting pushed back, I think its tied to puppies knockback but not certain, Ive had my entire party shuffled several times. My best guess is that a knockback affect is persistently pushing back their position in battle, so you can reset their spot out of battle in the out of combat battle formation, and they will use that formation to start in battle, but each turn it pushes them back in the out of combat battle formation, so after the fight suddenly the character is in the back again. So one a effect isn't clearing, and two a pushback is effecting the out of combat formation which it shouldn't. Its worth noting the push back is consistent in how it changes the party positions and the reason I suspect puppies is while I wasn't fully tracking it, they show up about as often as the effect and have a push back attack.
I've given up on simply bugfixing that piece of logic, and instead wrote a piece of code that verifies every combat whether something went wrong and warns me about it.
By now, I've found two bugs surrounding it. The primary one being that while it stored your initial starting order before combat (so it could reset it later), it would never clear that list. So you'd start every subsequent in the same position as your first combat, which becomes worse if that includes some girls that aren't even in the active party anymore since it persists between dungeons.
I expect some more bugs surrounding it will pop out of this check while I work on other stuff.
A few bugs. So after importing as I wanted to keep items and guild stuff even if losing all characters, it saves, but on the main screen still shows the waring of this is a older save when booting again, so its not updating that it is now a 2.4.1 save, everything saves and loads fine, just that that warning is left.
Now one thing that isnt saved is the other bug, if you locked adventures in as maids or tavern it does not keep them locked upon loading so you have to relock them. I am assuming this isn't tied to updating a save, but it could be. Also could we have the lock option in the training grounds, when I am leveling stats I often do it back to back with waiting, so locking them in the job slots even if I have to reselect which stat would be nice. Hell there is objectives that ask for working at training or patients that it would be nice to keep them there. Ideally you could lock them in with currently selected stat to be trained as well as just in general locked in.
The last bug is which the levelup commanded, I tried to level up a prisoner, but nothing happened, I used the command in 2.3 after you mentioned it and it worked then, so looks to me like it has trouble raising the level with the new way they are saved.
also this was a oddity, on a prisoner they were able to use orgasm with belt of denial equipped, later put it on a cleric and it blocked them from orgasming as intended. If I replicate it again will update further.
My party order has been just randomly changing constantly, Its really odd, changing the order out of combat only changes it for a fight and it just reverts after that, moving them in the fights also isn't saved, perhaps a move or somthing changes the positions in a way that is persistent.
Estrus is missing from the tool tips
Had a prisoner with the goal start 20 turns blinded, they were blindfolded but it didnt go up at all, dungeon was high enough level and another goal was completed in that run so was just that goal.
I seem to be encountering a glitch where the ratkin tries to palce an item, even if my character is clothed. Then it reads "false" and the game crashes either immediately or the next turn.
Loving the game though, good work.
Could it be that the clothed character was either taunting, guarding a girl that could get equipped, or a girl that could get equipped was stealthed?
If so, I think I know what causes this. Taunt, guard, and stealth change the targetting, after the move is selected. So Equip thinks it can equip something, but gets rerouted to another target where it can't equip anything and then breaks.
Edit: I did some further testing and that's seems to be it. It doesn't show in my dev build, but in the Export build it also gives the "false" and crashes the game. No need to send the save or logs anymore.
Sadly no. It was targetting the cleric actually. No stealth or guarding involved. Will hopefully see if I can continue replicating it shortly.
Should still be fixed in 2.4.1. The targetting was even more broken than expected.
Sounds great. Looking forward to the next update.
a frequent crashing problem caused a glitch that broke my clerics hp value and made her immortal.
Could you elaborate a little?
If possible, upload a zip file of your saves in %APPDATA%/EroDungeons/Saves, as well as the logs from %APPDATA%/EroDungeons/logs you can use Catbox to upload the files.
well as much as i can elaborate. my game frequently crashes. after one of these crashes my clerics hp shows up as <null>/24
in this state, any damage she takes doesn't do anything, making her functionally immortal.
it also seems she can't get aroused either.
i'll see if i can upload a zip later.
the download links were broken for me so i had to use an alternative download link, and my characters didn't seem to orgasm even at max lust (which was pretty bad since they had cursed equipment that required them to)
i think there should be place where you can pay some money to remove cursed and locked equipment from adventurers.
Orgasm certainly works in version 2.4 (though it was broken in versions 2.1 and 2.2). What could be the case is that you have a quirk that bans orgasms (or an item or crest). I hadn't really thought about that.
But yeah, a backup way of removing cursed gear is a good idea.
love the game, can't wait to see where it goes. I honestly hope development continues. even as is, the game is actually really fun (despite various bugs). really looking forward to the characters randomly disappearing bug getting fixed. it sucks when one of them is one of the four i put most of my work into.
Edit: Good news. the characters that disappear might not be gone for good. i almost lost my cleric, but noticed the number of characters i had, hadn't decreased. so i closed and reloaded after getting an extra character from recruiting (i had 1 spare space left luckily) and my character showed back up upon returning. i had closed and reloaded a bunch of times before that but that didn't seem to work, but who knows, maybe it's just a coincidence & you need to close and reload a bunch. hope this helps nonetheless.
That actually is fixed in Alpha 2.4. Apart from some bugs surrounding characters disappearing being fixed, characters are now stored in a central location in the save file and are only removed there if you dismiss or abandon them. So even if something goes horribly wrong, you can always get them back by save editing.
awesome! looking forward to when you finally release it! cheers!
I think I found a bug or at least some strange behavior. When an adventurer looses a locked quirk after a successful mission, the same quirk is instantly replied. See the attached image, here it happens to Tomo with the Gag Fetish. I guess this is somewhat intended, since the quirk is locked and should not be lost, but it looks like a bug.
I think there needs to be different ways to deal with Capitivity gear. Gear gets equiped really fast, and reaching level 3 Prisoner can take forever.
Development Goals also need some attention, in particular rerolling (maybe including current level progress too, just to make it not to easy), as some combinations are unrealistic to complete with reasonable effort. I know Dismiss and re-recruit another adventurer is a ghetto to reroll, but ...
Both Problems are connected and could be solved by specific Building/Improvements. No freebies.
I think you can get kidnapped if one DoT falters you and a second one ticks. If so I'd suggest changing that to a single check no matter how many dots are applied, as there is very little to no counterplay possible (compared to multiple consecutive attacks that could be guarded or healed in between).
Regarding the Roadmap: Maybe include a Fetish factory/Trader in the specific Buildings aswell? Can be a bit frustrating to wait for NPCs to equip/drop the right items.
I might change it to level 2 Prisoner.
You'll be able to reroll development goals (for a price). I might make it conditional on a building upgrade.
I agree that the current DoT setup is too punishing. It will get changed.
I would like to add I have had a single type of dot (think it was punish) do its damage as two ticks, most likely do to being applied different turns. First tick caused falter, second capture.
Now I actually am ok with that do to how you can just keep healing a character out of falter rather reliably. The real problem is that there is just no counter. On top of that there is little incentive to continue the fight and risk other characters, a simple solution would be that if your character get captured and you defeat the current enemies your downed character just gets sent back to base, if you retreat they are captured. I do also think some of the heals need tweaks, like the clerics single target heal is pretty weak, the mage heal can be so much stronger, that feels odd even if the mage heal can cause a dot, but I have abused that heal quite a bit, I use it on a prisoner meat shield who has taunted and has high defense keeping them topped off, the enemies are not downing her in one round, then on her turn the heat damage drops her to falter, but I just heal her to full as I dont care about the dot, but that multiple dots can punish that sort of thing and make them a threat is good, and you can keep track of them and keep healing up so it doesn't falter, so most of the time its enough, its just that it can sneak up on you, and that there is very little ways to stop it once the dots show up, which is why I think a way of saving them is a better option. You also could retreat if you see the dots are going to down them like that.
Yeah, that's just not how it's supposed to work. Every dot is stored separately internally, so the way it is programmed in Alpha 2.3 works as you mention. It's overpowered and will be changed to only trigger once.
The mage heal is very RNG though. It heals between 0% and 80%, with the chance of applying a dot, so it's only worth it on high HP targets.
Hi! I'm trying to make a mod (of the tech demo, yes), but am having trouble editing the pck file without breaking it, I touch anything in there and the game refuses to launch. Any idea how I might go about doing that?
Also thanks for game
Use https://github.com/bruvzg/gdsdecomp/releases/tag/v0.5.3 to decompile the game and open it in Godot 4.
Dungeons are generating fights only?
I don't think "Start turn with token Faltering" should be a level-up goal. Half my roster had it. They're gone now, either because they were attacked multiple times in the same turn, or because they had multiple DOTs. In either case they melted before taking a turn.
Seriously, I dismissed an Adept Cleric because their goals were "Kill 20 enemies, start 2 turns Faltering, start 20 turns Silenced".
Also have a Mage who needs to "Follow 5 hypnotic suggestions" and "End dungeon dealing 300 damage". Does a single Adept dungeon have 300hp worth of enemies?
Need a way to remove Prisoner gear other than advancing in the class, or make it less onerous. A Warrior with any two items of Captivity is effectively deadweight.
...And now my Veteran Warrior is a Novice Prisoner in the middle of a Veteran dungeon.
Curios have been removed temporarily while I try to implement something that works better.
There's a lot of bugs related to the Prisoner class and the uncursing that probably makes the whole process a lot more arduous. That should be fixed soon.
I'll also add a way to reroll development goals (and tone some of them down a little).
Also, multiple DoTs will trigger faltering checks only once in the future.
Start 20 turns blinded, Defeat a boss, End a dungeon with over 60 suggestibility...goodbye rouge.
1) Equip a blindfold, that forces the blind token. One dungeon should do it. Will work better once gear doesn't get cursed again if you unequip it after cursing, oops.
2) Not implemented, oops.
3) Barely implemented, there's only one enemy that applies that now, oops.
Rerolls are coming soon.
So I have done the start turn faltering several times, you really just need to leave a enemy alive, the peasants, mages and mortar enemies can only target the front most if they are in the front. So I just let them falter the part member then move them back. None of there attacks inflict dots, just be mindful of lust to avoid heat dot. There is also a underwear that lower capture chance by 30% which is very good for that goal. It takes a moment, but is quite easy to pull of if you bother to focus it, honestly its one of the easier goals.
The green and yellow dungeon doesn’t generate chests and environmental hazards. Is this a bug or intentional ?(Great update btw)
Intentional. I removed those since they weren't fun and I want to rework them.
who the va, they so cute!
my friend mentioned the acting sounded so deadpan/unemotional for some of the lines the characters were saying. specifically, it mostly was mentioned when lines were delivered during & after combat.
I spawned a lot of gear while being in town, now it's stuck in my provision slots and i can't get rid of it, nor start a mission
I assume you mean that you used the console to add gear, which then went to fill up the provision slots, blocking you from starting a mission.
You can find your saves at %APPDATA%/EroDungeons/Saves, look for your Profile and find the main.txt file. Replace the number after "current_save" with an earlier number to roll back to a previous save. That should let you continue playing.
Edit: If you're playing on Web your save is fucked though.
Thanks, that helped
Thank you for the update! Do you plan invasive/possessive enemies that turn your allies into enemies?
No plans for that. At least not for the normal dungeons.
Everything is possible in the final lewdest dungeons of course, but that's still far far away.
Also, I originally wanted to make kidnapped allies show up as enemies (once you abandon them or they get to max corruption). But I didn't find time to implement that.
Got it! Thank you for your work! Love the game <3
Great update, played it for a while and it was pretty good but there were some memorable bugs:
1. Switching classes isn't saving the progress of the class switched from, including prisoner. So if a character gets switched to a prisoner forcefully, the previous class progress is lost. This also means if a character becomes a prisoner multiple times, they need to start from novice every time to un-curse anything.
2. Characters who haven't been recruited yet can still be stripped by opening the clothing menu on an owned character then right clicking on the un-recruited one.
3. I don't know if this is intentional or not, but for a character who has a development goal to have some sort of job in the town, you need to go to the proper level dungeon while that's happening for it to count - which I find sort of weird since that character is just staying home.
4. The "Masturbation Lover" quirk doesn't properly replace the move
I also have some suggestions as well (feel free to ignore them, though):
1. It would be nice to have a reliable way to dodge enemy equips when you don't have clothes on; probably by being tied to one of the save stats, as otherwise I find it hard to use a character with the exhibitionist trait well before they lose their class anyway.
2. Sliders to control various volumes instead of just mute/unmute
3. An option to "abandon" a character who has been kidnapped (otherwise I find myself rescuing them only to immediately dismiss them as I don't want to bother getting them out of the prisoner class)
4. An option to keep people in town positions until you remove or replace them (I keep forgetting to put maids every time personally)
Overall, looking forward towards the next update!
Thanks for the bug reports, I'll fix them. Except (2), it's probably easier if I just make those starting gear already unlimited at the start.
I'll also implement your suggestions eventually. Except (1), exhibitionism already works with gear that doesn't cover boobs or crotch (such as the bondage suit).
