Very fun, and i especially have to commend the genuily incredible optimization! No idea how you did it, but somehow despite having physics etc it runs smoothly even at 5x speed on my piece of shit 2012 laptop that died then spontaneously came back to life a few months later twice, while it can struggle to run some virtual novels!

It’s really nice to see a developed reponse like that! I love when people genuily engage intellectually with erotic media; kinks are a fun way to gain occasionally surprisingly deep insight into biology, and it’s quite frustrating to see how often people refuse to genuily engage due to something trying to create arousal, or let it affect their judgement rather than considering it seriously when they do. Also similarly pretty confused at the amount of sympathy with erx, their motive isn’t even that cool, and the “we used sympathy” argument is like saying you shouldn’t damage someone’s legs if you beat them via leg swipes

This was really nice! Neat little story, very comfortable and nostalgic artstyle and charadesign, and pretty nice mass-effect/FTL -y ost too coming together to create a very neat ambiance with the little content there is, looking forward to anything else you’d produce sfw or otherwise! I do wish the ai wasn’t as reluctant to use single stat cards though, it took me forever to get the inject/quell lust ones (and though there isn’t a lot of it, the dialog acknowledging the sensations is really nice in how casual/natural it feels!). Im quite surprised at how much people sympathize with Erx, he doesn’t even have a cool motive

That was also my initial reaction, and i do agree it is very clumsy and negative to the overall story, feeling more like a tiwst for the sake of having one than anything, but even then that was handled surprisingly well imo:

this whole game was amazing!  It has by some of the best representation of neurodivergency i've ever seen, being shown as just part of who they are rather than defining them, and it has some feelings that are very accurate and common to real life experiences (like the bit about xenofiction it mentions), it's damn perfect. It was a such a nice feeling when i noticed the hand wringing/holding on lee's sprite and it finally clicked in! I identified a lot to each character.

Always love your stuff, the character design here is especially good! While i thankfully don't have OCD, i can somewhat relate it to some of my own experience during covid (had to put lotion to stop my hands from bleeding due to excessive washing), especially the bit where the knock on the door is added, it's quite interesting how your brain can just suddenly decide something is bad or dirty even when you rationally know it isn't.

Finally some body horror that actually focuses on how bodies impact the way we are perceived and can interact with the world, rather than just "John Bodyparts the big scary monster who forgot to grow skin"! The concept of such a basic part of agency being able to be taken away by a force for petty misbehavior is uniquely terrifying, and works extremely well in the scenes that use it!

Carmen approves

That was very neat, i'm glad i tried it! The graphics and writing are both very nice (got ending A), and i can really relate to magnolia's frustration on research. Obviously gutting people is bad, but the regulations on anything reguarding bio are just absurd to the point of being counterproductive; in France we are legally obligated to euthanise rats after they participated in a certain number of studies, even if they were part of the control group with nothing done to them, and it's standard practice in unis to limit how many times peoples can participate as subjects in remunerated research per month "as it would be unethical for them to become reliant on it to live", because i guess it's just that much more ethical to let them starve to death.

Turns out you need to have worked on project kat or to have translated 2 other games before to make an official translation, sent an apology email, i'll try to find out how to edit the files and make an unnoficial one if i can figure out how to change the text

I'm fluent in both (native french speaker) and probably could make one but if it would require altering the code beyond just replacing the text i couldn't do it. Honestly fuck it we ball, i'll send an email, if i can just get one more guy to discover it, it's worth the effort

Depending on when you downloaded it, you might wanna download it again, a bunch of stuff got added in the meanwhile (including new dead ends and the miss knives sequence getting a lot better!)

This was extremely good! While the start is a little slow, especially with that really terrible stealth section in the locked area, the whole climax with Misses Knives really makes up for it! It was for me the most visually pleasant area of the game, and the character of Misses Knives is a fairly original concept and her backstory is very well executed! Overall the graphics have a lot of charm, with good puzzles, very nice character design, and interesting lore set up!
