The game won’t launch correctly inside of the Itch client. I’ll look at fixing that the next time I add a character!

The next build will have a windowed/full screen option. That should let you move the game to the right window and then put it back into fullscreen mode.

You’ll have access to future experimental builds as well.

Is your system set to use Chinese or Japanese? I think it’s trying to display localized text, but I don’t have the font set up correctly for those languages.

I will need to add a way to change the language the game uses.

I should really add a warning in the corner if you have any of those debug settings enabled!

That’ll happen once I iron out some more kinks with how configurations are saved – you’ll just wind up picking from a list of presets, or pick one to customize (and then save!).

It’s just a huge pile of rigidbodies! It’s not the most efficient thing in the world…

I just realized I turned off those hints to record a video and…never turned them back on.

I’ll have to fix that!

The legacy version of the game doesn’t change. These changes are in the experimental version.

I like it!

This was disappointing to discover!

You can upload gifs, but these are significantly larger than the equivalent mp4. I was hoping I could embed a few short videos in my page that way.

I see something about a “video embed code” in the Video dialog, so it really sounds like you should be able to upload videos, too.

Yes! But I need to settle on how I’m going to do character presets.

That’s odd – it kind of sounds like you have the “Block Perceptions” debug setting enabled. Make sure that isn’t turned on in the settings!

Looks like the entire scene is failing to render. What’re your system specs?

Probably this Friday.

The post DarkHyena linked shows how to fix this!

The next Preview release will inadvertently solve the problem; I moved the stats file to another folder, so it will no longer confuse the Legacy version.

They’re definitely coming! I just need some time to figure them out.

Thanks! I’ll get you added to the credits (:

Oh yeah, for sure! Just remind me about it when you do that.

I have not re-implemented that yet – I have a few design problems to solve first. You can still find it in the Legacy version for the time being.

Yes! That’s going to come along with the latex-y Fen – I’m just deciding how I’m going to program that in.

Everything used to be very hard-coded (there was a Monster class and a Prey class). That’s no longer the case, so I have to be a little more thoughtful.

Ah, that’s a little unclear! It’s just possible for that to happen now —- I have a mostly-finished shark that’s both predator and prey. That’ll be in soon.

I’m going to be exploring objectives more thoroughly soon, for sure. There will be randomly-generated levels with simple objectives.

I’m mostly sticking to oral vore. I’ll be adding some kind of “goo vore” (just getting shoved into a goo creature), and I might do anal vore, since it’s relatively simple to do.

Thanks for playing (:

I really need to figure that out! I’ll look into it.

It’s a bit flaky right now – you’re meant to parry when the enemy’s weapon is glowing. It can miss, though, which is problematic!

Thanks! The idea is for enemies to be temporarily shrunken when they run out of stamina. It’s a little weird to make the shrink ray actually just drain all of their stamina.

That’s what the parry is! It’s like Bloodbirne (:

If you get stomped once, you’ll be too small to stomp on it while it’s down. I’ll need to adjust that.

That village map has had really screwed up rendering for ages. I’ll probably be rebuilding it.

VR would be a stretch, but it’s not unattainable. I have some experience with it, so I’ll probably give it a try at some point.

And thanks (:

Not this exact game. I am working on another game with the same idea, though.

oops, I didn’t apply some changes to the other scenes. should be fixed in a few minutes!

Nice lil’ game!

I do not have any plans to bring this to mobile.

It’d be helpful to see your logs. Could you go to the link on the game’s page and submit them?

I wouldn’t be opposed to it! I did try just pitching the existing ones up, but it didn’t sound too good.

Turns out I completely broke input on the main menu. Should be fixed with the next build!

uh oh

Multiplayer is almost certainly not happening: I’m experimenting with it in other games, but I’m not confident I could correctly port things over right now.

Player-controlled monsters should be doable. I’ll need some time to figure out how to best do it, though.

Multiple monsters might be added. A moderate amount of code depends on their being one (and only one) monster, but I don’t see any reason why I couldn’t change that.

I’ve disabled the browser version for now, since it’s having some weird graphical problems.
