Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I don't want to give spoilers but there will be plenty of ass content in future levels/areas!
Wow, thank you very much for such an encouraging comment, it fills me with POWER to keep making the game!
A lot of the things you mentioned were active considerations, like the lore stuff and tweaking generic fantasy races to try and make them a little more interesting. I appreciate you having a keen eye and picking up on those things!
Thank you! I'm really touched that you've enjoyed it so much! For full transparency all proper content updates on the game until it's fully completed will be over on Patreon, since that's how it's creation is being funded (it would take an ungodly amount of time to make otherwise)
If that's not your cup of tea no worries!
I very much understand your position, and truly if someone doesn't want to play BQ because they don't want to risk seeing any fetish that they don't care for, I really can't blame them and I totally get it.
The reason I'm going with the "smorgasbord" approach is that I want to keep the player guessing and surprising them throughout the whole experience, if I only played to one kink the entire time it would get very predictable in my opinion.
Thanks!
Tower defense games are pretty tricky, with the game in its current state there's also not a whole lot of really strong towers to make getting through it easier.
Make sure to place towers in such a way that they can watch multiple lanes, and make sure to turn your towers around so they can attack enemies from multiple directions. That little "cross" in the middle is where you'll want to put the majority of your towers.
Haha thank you very much, it's been a blast to make! Since kinks are so subjective and specific, I couldn't really see making a game that stays engaging for hours that only explores one kink, the variation is necessary as far as I'm concerned.
The hope is that when the player reaches something that's not to the their taste, the humor and story keeps them engaged, since it's basically guaranteed not every player is going to be into every kink presented.
I appreciate the enthusiasm, but there is no plan for sex scenes of any sort in Bellagarth's Quest, they wouldn't fit the tone I'm going for with the game.
You and anyone reading this has my blessing to make/commission fan-works of anything in this game to have sex scenes or whatever your heart desires!
Both of those flags are flipped depending on what you name your save file, one being "Greenagarth" and the other "Bellafart", entirely just as jokes that originated from my patreon discord. There are a few other names as of right now that will have effects, though most of them just change the sound that plays when your new game starts (at the "Onward, brave and noble [playername]" part)
Thank you very much! I'm glad to hear you liked it and had a good time!
To answer your questions:
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
As far as your question goes, almost certainly not. There may be exceptions but generally speaking my design philosophy is that kink content is an incentive/reward, so it's something the player should get from progressing the game, rather than something you get for failing.
Sorry to hear that!
From what you're describing it's likely an issue with the opening mp4. From what I understand usually what causes that is an issue with graphics card drivers, for now all I can suggest is trying to update your graphics card drivers and see if that resolves the issue. I will release a patch that will give people the option to skip the opening cinematic before it tries to load the mp4, you'll just need to wait a bit though.
EDIT: While I'm working on a proper patch for this, you can also just change the name of the mp4 file to something random so that the game just doesn't open the video at all. It should be in the game files under "opening_fmv.mp4"
