Literally just came back to comment/review this: Holy fucking shit, that is some GOOD quality (mostly) furry stuff. And the surprising thing, it's straight.

But to start it off, this game is easily 9.5/10 so far, if I don't deduce point for the obvious issues like performance (because UE sucks) and lack of content (because it's early access 0.1). This could easily be my most recommended game of the year or even decade for lewd content and second place for everything else (after MGQ:p).

The combat is nothing top tier that scratches triple A games or anything, but it certainly is better than a lot of souls-likes that are unironically sold on steam for their gameplay. I reckon with the addition of more weapons it'll be more fun, but I already enjoy it so far even if it's a bit janky at times. Maybe needs a parry system? Or any kind of reason to roll over attacking to stunlock or blocking.

The inventory system is great, although maybe a bit small, but it's so detailed and properly done there's very little I can say to this except that it's nice. Having the option to stockpile customization options to change on the fly is an amazing idea that is very underrated.

A ton of customization options with skin, head and dick, absolutely great. Even if there's only two dicks right now, that is amazing in it's own right.

The scenes are so well done, I was expecting basic loops of one scene per encounter, but there's so much variety with great camera work and even x-ray. Even the tail scene was interesting. My only complaint is to add a skip button (or enable to go next scene instantly) because I accidentally misclicked the tail scene and had to watch it 5 times.

Quality. Nothing else to say. For 1.58 GB this looks like it could straight up just shit on most titles these days in terms of quality. The models are really good looking and I've only noticed very minor issues with them.

Plot - while I don't usually care too much about this, it's a great plot that livens up the whole game.

Variety - Having the options to switch your dick on the fly, or to make yourself different skin races and colours will never grow old. I kind of wish the races had differently sized dicks, or that there will be more variety added but I'm already quite happy with what it has so far.

With the addition of the quest log (and a map?) the game will be so much better, too. It's a bit hard to find stuff currently and none of the edges of the map are clearly defined, to the point where you walk for five minutes to find out there's an invisible wall on the way.

But yes, big fan, will follow this with open eyes.

tl;dr:
Pros:
- Combat
- Inventory
- Customization options
- Scenes
- Quality
- Plot
- Variety

Cons:
(- Performance)
(- lack of content)
- No map
- No skip option

My own selfish hopes/wishes/wants for the final game:
- Different sized genitals (with the centaur guard it seems possible to have equine manhoods, which appear to be bigger)
- Interaction with more people (Again, centaur guard for a sex scene would be divine)
- Bigger inventory
- A map (I dont remember if that was planned)


Edit: Oops there's a review tab. Well, this is mostly praise and improvement suggestions so I'll leave it.

A very nice surprise actually, game is very stable, animation are nice and the combat system is a little adictive, in fact i spend 30 minutes trying to fuck everyone in this bandit camp thingy, pretty nervous system, cool dodge in nike of time, and the two, three sex scene i saw are nicely animated too, not very fapable but well..

could be a good game, not just a pertinent porn game, keep it up mate !

Hmmm, we will see heh. Gonna give this a download and see how good it is, just from the screenshots and description this looks hugely promising.

I'm crying about the graphics and the softness with which everything moves.

I see little content, but a game with very stable pillars. I really like to expect a few more updates and I don't brazen my support for this project.

Good job Carnal Team ;)

PD: I don't score until watch a minimum beta game.

cant understand ur description or the map...

and how many sex scenes up till now? found 2 only .. futaXfemale puss & futaLezard tail X female dragon
There's an enemy in a cage that has a sex scene. Its east of the village iirc, might be wrong tho.
Also it might be too late since you're already a dragon, but if you keep bothering the lizard woman before you get the Vessel she has a sex scene too.

but which lizard u talking about that i could harass?
& how? the one who give u the dragon transform location?
Yeah she's the one you have sex with when you become a dragon. If you keep talking to her before you find the vessel, she gets annoyed and has sex with you. It might be too late since you already got the vessel for her.

I liked the game although there are a lot of things missing. There are no saves, maps, quests and this is only a small part. I hope the game will continue to develop and please with big updates

You can save with "P" and load with "O".

So I found four five sex scenes:
1) one right outside the dock where you start, you need a dick.
2) there's a small community next to the river left of where you start. One of the women there will fuck you on request.
3) dragon vessel quest giver before you complete the quest, if you're insistent she'll let you eat her out.
4) dragon vessel quest giver after you complete the quest, she lets you peg her with your tail.
I think the blowjob scene is the WIP scene that they talk about removing in the changelog, b/c I went where people said it was and I just found a statue in the cage.
5) nevermind I found the BJ scene, I was just looking in the wrong place, check out this post for instructions to find it: https://f95zone.to/threads/carnal-instinct-pre-alpha-v0-1-41-carnal-instinct.65211/post-4562479

I really enjoy this so far. It's a really nice breath of fresh air to see a project like this with gameplay already in.

You guys did a really nice job preventing out of bounds exploration as well, but there was one spot that wasn't quite sealed off.
Is there a designated method to contact the devs to submit this bug or is it preferable to just post the method publicly? I do want to consider their preference on the matter.

In the mean time, some screenshots from exploring.

We devs lurk here occasionally, good catch! Whilst we'd obviously prefer if you supported the project, we're still glad you're enjoying the game and reviewing it in a positive light. Maybe check out our latest public post too - we're asking what people want (not just current patrons) to see in the medium term to help us finalise our schedule.

As always it'd be remiss of me to not take the chance to ask everyone to like, share and subscribe... don't forget to hit that notification bell xD

Seriously though, anyone who can help fund the project - even if just tipping a few bucks every now and then - is massively appreciated. We're making this game for the passion not to get rich, but patreon/subscribestar/kofi bucks go to pay voice actors and other things we can't do ourselves. It'll get done eventually either way, but the better we do the faster you can get balls-deep in goo-girls, H-cup humans, centaur mares, or whatever tickles your fancy...

I know it's a hard sell when you're getting it for free here, but I hope you don't begrudge us trying! To those of you who already supported the project (I've spoken with at least one on discord) you are the real MVPs - to have something for free and to see the potential of the game enough to support it financially... I just really want to say thank you.

I love the sound of that. Although I'm not in a position to support the project financially, I still wish the team luck in their future endeavors. Have you explored any marketing options? That could potentially boost attention by a significant margin.

We will do marketing rounds but we want to have a good few updates under our belt first - advertising is casting a wide net and we need a broader content base before we burn money on marketing that we could otherwise put toward voice acting or diverting time from our 'real' jobs to work on the project. We're going fast-castle AoE2 style - all food is going on villagers right now...

Just started the game, can"t comment yet on the content or quality but first of all, please add gamepad settings. inverted vertical axis only without the ability to change it is the stupidest thing. Apart from that, can't comment, will have to play the game with mouse and keyboard for now which is a shame

As for the support, I completely understand the importance of financially supporting it, and obviously I can make excuses for this but it really comes down to practicality of it on my end. I sample these here and there to find bugs as it's good practice for me; don't wanna get rusty, but I also like having a roof over my head. I can tell that you guys actually care about what you're making unlike some other projects that seem to be milking it for whatever they can get. I like what's here and plan to support it going forward, but currnetly it's not financially doable for me. After the holidays it will be though.
Maybe check out our latest public post too - we're asking what people want (not just current patrons) to see in the medium term to help us finalise our schedule.
As for feedback I've taken a look at the poll options but haven't voted as I lack a Patreon account and need one to do so, but I'm going to type up some of my personal input on it anyway. I've broken it up a little to sort it better.

Poll responses
[X] Human Content
[X] Environment Hazards
[X] Camp
[X] Equipment
[X] Combat (refer to Gameplay and Sex Scenes below on this one)

Controls
-Interactions is fine, but I find the selection for which response to use being a bit hard to see unless I've already picked the option. Can the highlighted option be more vibrant or the ones not highlighted be darker?

Gameplay
-Shields don't appear to be contributing very much to combat, even when the enemy engaged is ranged. I find dodging to be significantly more preferable than to even use the shield, or to even tank the arrow shots and just charge at them. I'd like to see this shields offer a little more on the defense side as time goes forward.
-The energy potions I find are best used for travel rather than combat. The map is massive the speed you travel isn't quite as fast as I would like, so sprinting works, but only for a short while. With sustained sprinting and the energy potion it still depletes completely. I'd like to see two possible outcomes here, one of which will be the next one. The first proposal is to change the way energy drinks work so that consumed energy is halved rather than periodic increases in the bar regeneration. This would allow a more combat-specific use while also allowing more sustained sprinting across the (really big) map. Also an indicator to see remaining duration would not be too bad to have, but I can live without it. That'd be more polish and that can certainly come another day.
-Footwear is absent right now and can be considered a visual thing. Adding shoes might offer a solution to travel longer distances at an increased pace (including sprinting) without changing the way energy potions inherently work. This stems from not really into the whole barefoot thing, so even if it were just cosmetic it would be nice to have this option on the table.

Visuals
-Not too into the whole dragon/cat head deal but I know others are (and the project is built on this idea entirely) so this is mainly preference on my part. Having more human-like headwear or just plain wraps around the faces would be nice. The masks so far have been preferable to me for this reason as it's pushes toward my preference by obscuring the heads a bit with a fitting theme.
-Honestly I'm impressed given how early it is. I don't have very many complaints and even the ones I do are just cherry picking

Sex scenes
-With the new addition I would say my only negative is that if you missed out on eating out for the questline you can't return to it. Perhaps allow this as an option for those who missed it the first time without realizing it? How you go about this can be just as is and play the scene or could be available if you dont have the dragon body equipped (thus, a secret option per se)
-The poll mentions a finisher type deal for combat. Could this potentially be used for more sex scenes as a more peaceful option rather than just to kill an enemy? I see an opportunity to have the player use both lethal and non lethal finishers on some enemies (but not all). For example they drop to their knees or hunch over after the health bar is almost depleted, interacting with them they ask that you spare their life and you can choose a list of sex options in exchange for not killing them. The idea sounds nice in my head so long as it's not every single enemy that does this. You could even pair this with the Camp idea for more options where specific enemy types can offer different executions, available through quests or via merchants
-Doing the above lets you make a "sexecution" joke

Bugs
-Out of bounds. It's a very slight invisible wall misalignment but just enough to get through. If you go to the new tomb area, stay above ground start more toward the left side and run toward the invisible wall angled to the right. You should eventually find a spot where the walls are misaligned and will go forward, hit the other wall, and move slightly left as you run forward. From there you've gone past it entirely and can run around as you please. Be careful though since the only way back is though that same misaligned wall.
-Depending on the collision and height difference of terrain you're near you can jump, land and roll and gain height relative to the angle of the terrain collision. In some spots it let me go up at least 5 player units high and a distance of at least 2, in others it turned me around and placed me above ground as if there's invisible terrain there. Not a horrible thing but still an interesting interaction with player movement
-Most of the other bugs are very minor and not worth detailing right now

The main thing I want to put forward is that the gameplay is more up my alley, but this game is also not quite targeted toward my preferences (yet) in terms of sex content. I like it so far and it has a lot of options for it going forward.
