Apparently 0.3is on the way, but still no 0.2 about anywhere from what can be seen, it is only a few dollars though now with price drop, I just don't know if it's a one time purchase or if you have to buy again every version

It would definitely improve upon it, but youd run into a few issues still.
1. Would you start where you were bred, or back at the start?
2. Would you keep plot items (eg keys to unlock areas), and would you have to refight bosses you previously "killed"?
3. How do you deal with multiple generations of breeding in terms of both gameplay and visually?
4. Roguelikes generally use randomized rooms with the same bosses, how would that be explained in game?

1. The bosses are going to be the strongest enemies, so obviously youre going to want to breed with them. That means that you will still have to do runs where you intentionally lose to each enemy, then restart, then intentionally lose to the first boss, then restart, then intentionally lose to subsequent enemies, then restart, beat the boss again (with an inferior breeding bonus), then lose again, restart, etc. That is still going to be grindy unless you really move away from standard roguelike mechanics. If you start straight where you died it solves some of it, but again its less of a rogue like as the stakes dont really exist.

2. If you have to start from scratch you have grind, if you don't you have to explain what happens while youre growing up and why you still have all your stuff/why no one has replaced the bosses, also the stakes are lowered.

3. Multiple generations of monster features would be very hard to do, youd probs be stuck doing a text based game - and even then itd take some doing. Gameplay wise, do bonuses stack? Maybe you could have the bonuses get weaker each generation and limit it to three generations of bonuses. So like, you die and breed with a bull monster and it gives you +9 strength, you die again and you breed with a snake and you get +9 agility, but now you only have +6 strength, then you die again and breed with a psychic creature and get +9 wisdom, and keep +6 agi, and +3 strength and so on. That could limit it, but itd still be hard to implement.

4. If the rooms are the same then starting from the start makes little sense, but if they are different then having the same bosses makes little sense because youve been moved somewhere new while growing up.

I have DEFINITELY overthought this, but there you go lol.
I'd say that the level 99 gameplay is the way to go around this. You should start at level 99 as a Pure human, or Pure elf in a pile of rubble not knowing what happened to you. You are not that strong where you start one shotting every entity you meet, instead mobs also start at level 99 as you, but they scale down slower with time. (You lose 5 levels, they only lose 3)

You have the items/keys that you had on your previous run in a pouch near a corpse/skeleton in the rubbles where you start again at.

You progress throughout the game as you normally do in a porn game, BUT if you lose you don't gain anything, but the opposite. You lose X amount of levels (based on the difficulty of the mob/boss) which decrease your base stats and you are corrupted by the seed of the mob you killed (for ex. each mob has its own stat decrease, for example if you get raped by wolves, you are more agile , but you are less smarter. or if you're raped by tentacles, you're more agile and smarter , but you are way squishier). Visually, i'd say the skeleton of the model would be pretty much the same (humanized) but let's say the MC was corrupted by the tentacle seed, what would she look like then? Well the question seems hard but its actually simple: She becomes the tentacles. Kidding hehe. She literally would look like a human with a tentacle or two coming from her head or chin (something like draenei from WoW). Literally take already made up humanized ideas and implement them into this. (It would make furries, and other fetish lowers enjoy it even more) OR if you don't want that, you can literally at the start of the game turn off any transformation (mobs) you do not desire.

The randomized rooms is something that makes roguelike what it is. Now the only idea i can give on this is that you don't have to change space, but time. Your previous gameplay was 9 months ago. After 9 months a lot has changed, the rooms look different, the mobs who occupied those rooms are different, the previous boss is nowhere to be found. Pretty much randomize the mobs, traps, but keep the rooms the way they are.

With this , you do not have to grind by getting raped by stronger and stronger mobs. This way you're literally strongest at the beggining (still takes time to grind but not that much where you stop enjoying the game)

hang on, i need something clarified:is their no fail state yet?
does the game even go anywhere past the prisons?
because i purposefully maxed out the lust and bottomed out the health, i literally cannot die, i just left the character in a room of goblins and she never went down.


and once i get past the prison, well...everything is just fucked.
in one run, i ran into 0 enemies and eventually. one door just ended in a brick wall.
the second, a door just lead to the void.
i mean literally, i somehow walked off the map and dropped into the void, i dropped into the fucking negative zone in a game where im playing as a 2D sprite- i didn't even know that was POSSIBLE.

and this is a double bitching:their seems to be only one boss:the slime king

and furthermore...he does no damage.

like, literally none, at first, i dodged his attacks and stuff, but eventually, i tested to see if his spitting even hurt me and it did...nothing.
so the boss just consists of me, plopping the slave girl down, then holding the F button like im paying the longest of respects and then using my other hand to scroll through social media.

besides those lists of winging nitpicks about this barely complete demo.

i actually do like the game, could use a bit of variety but that will probably come with time
and i do hope to see these issues fixed, granted, i dont know why you even allow us to enter a portion of the game thats a dead end, but hey, its a nice preview.

Downloaded v0.35 and would like to play it on Win10 (Pro), but it looks like I can't (or I'm not being patient enough?).

The game launches fine, I can select the character with "E", but then the game gets stuck at "dungeon generated..." (dots no longer blinking), with no other obvious exit than through the task manager.

If possible, some assistance would be appreciated, thank you.

The game is terrible !!!
So the controls are the worst in the whole game that should be removable later.
Lot of bugs like immortality.
Animation that are missing.
Monsters cannot meet one with their skills every now and then.
If you meet you do it at the bottom left.
But only 50% of the game seems to sparkle as it should.

There is also no save system.
is displayed but it does not yet exist here.
it feels like you are more of an alpha player and not a demo.

Would seem that the procedural generation for the "Great Hall's" zone is broken, ended up getting a three room segment that had no exit/end, with only a treasure chest and no rooms with enemies. Could see other rooms off to the side past walls on the left and right in certain rooms, but no way to properly access them. Definitely think this game has some solid potential though.

Apparently you unlock her by beating a run with the human, but unsure as to whether you can even finish a run on the human with how things are in the second zone currently.

Can anyone get v.4 and then give cheats to the game by making her invincible plus unlock other 3 characters? Also, what is the control of this game along with a walkthrough?
