itch.io

Also did a bit more testing. I created a new folder and downloaded the game fresh, hopped straight into FER and got scared 8 or so times.

After MB, I checked Jacky stats and Fear was still at 0.

also have you considered releasing on different platforms. I know steam allows for dirty games now, you could always put it there for $10 (so after their cut you get $7)

cool, can’t wait for the patch.

I wanted to pm this to y’a (itch.io doesn’t appear to have pms) but here:

After reading your main post about you in college I am super determined to help you out, if you want it. I am graduated and have a nice desk job, so if you need help ( even with just some basic bug squashing ) I can offer my services for the low price of getting to play the game more ;)

I have a ton of C# and ECS experience.

Just to re-iterate, I don’t want compensation just really want to help out.

dude just, wow. Give yourself a break. You obviously have a ton of talent but burnout is real. I understand not having money, hopefully this game keeps gaining traction. I found out about this on f95, played the version they had then realized there were updates. I def bought this and have been seeing large improvements and am eagerly waiting for more.

Seriously good job. 

I think I figured it out. On the stats screen for jacky, I have a 0 down on the number of times I have encountered the "Fear" attack. Could that be related?

Just to confirm. Fear is when they are invisible and you run into them and they scream correct?

"Help Me" doesn't specify a wave number.

Help Me

Let Jackys scare you 6 times in a single game without a broken mind.

Is what the experiment states.

I am testing a wave cap for it as a couple of the other experiments have a wave prereq also. I am at 16 currently and have been scared ~12 times.

No problem, also I can't seem to get the "Help Me" Experiment on FER. I know I have had them scare me 6 times... Is it a typo, or is it bugged?

Great game, payed a little extra after messing around with it.

As most people said, game is hard as balls, except the Shack, I was able to get all of the experiments there in 1.0.0 before trying another level and getting frustrated.

grapple mechanics are a little unforgiving even on the new casual difficulty. I still have to use a macro to get out of grapple for some enemies.

I do think this would benefit from some sort of persistent upgrade mechanic. A little extra libido here, A little extra strength there would be great. It could be based on residual money from each match, or each match could track an overall score, which could carry over into points.

This would allow for increasingly more difficult levels or more difficult experiments, but ya gotta balance the grind also.

My favorite level by far ( in terms of level design ) is FER I would love to see more levels like that... I really like how it is more exploratory, and has multiple paths you can take. Unlocking more monsters the further from spawn you go.

Also, what do you think about opening up for players to add their own levels? I personally have 3 or 4 level Ideas that I would like to make.

Now for bug/issue report time:

When escaping from/finishing a rape, if you hold down a directional button BEFORE you escape, the player character stays still, I have many times gotten in a "stun-lock" because I was holding a direction and I couldn't escape.

controls feel a bit stiff. It is Leaps better than most H-platformers, but there is still something off.

Transitioning from mouse on the side that is the direction the character is moving to behind the character needs a bit slower of a deceleration. ( one of the stiffness issues )

-end bug/issues-

if you need more hands on deck, I am a bored programmer who also knows how to do pixel art and has 0 ideas for a game, but always wanted to work on one.
