Great game, didn't managed to finish it cause it is impossible to run trough spam of monsters blocking and grabbing you in 120 seconds so if anyone knows how to stop timer i'm listening.
Edit: managed to do that on non hardmoded game.

I've made a couple edits of kwanlier's KMods - first, one of the Nonpreg version, the other of the Preg version. They rebalance the game slightly, making overall damage slightly lower, and making Resurrection more of an actual legitimate choice. They also cause mana regen to scale very slightly with max mana, although not to the point that you can have 100% uptime on your shield (unless you *really* invest in it and are at endgame anyway). The Preg version leans into the idea of living on the edge, granting damage bonuses for being low on Contraceptive and high on Arousal.
kwanlier, would you be okay with me uploading them? And would anyone be interested? I'll do a more detailed writeup in a bit when I get my notes together.
Edit: The posts containing and explaining the mods (on page 231) are pending moderator review, so I'll just attach them to here for now if anyone wants to try 'em out.

Hmm...That is very sad. Grimhelm was certainly very talented gamedev.
I can't get KMOD to work, it just breaks Ellen menu model when I use asset installer or when I use manual asset file replacement.

During the choosing the directory part, what do you choose; Drive\[Game directory] or Drive\[Game directory]\AlienQuest-EVE_Data ?
If you choose the second choice, you're wrong
This version is based off of "KMod_Normal_Ver_Horny_EVE_EditionAnother". The changes in this version are a little more subtle and less intricate. I'd like to note that my mods are all works in progress - although I'll mostly be focusing on the other one. (I plan on raising the level cap eventually, and definitely want to tweak damage values, among other things. I'd also like to try my hand at writing some dialogue too - I used to do that for a living, and I suspect I could help add to variety! Maybe even cobble together a second-person h-scene description option?)
Resurrection no longer permanently marks your file, nor does it cost max health, but does place you in a tight spot - you're left at 20% health and 0% mana, your Contraceptive value is lowered by 50, your Arousal is instantly maxed, and your Corruption is slightly increased (about a fifth of a mana potions' worth), and you're left lying prone. You're also given very little in the way of temporary invulnerability - if you're not careful, it's easy to get caught in a downward spiral of resurrections, and you have a decent chance of being immediately caught in a hard-to-escape H-scene either way.
Speaking of which, H-scenes, completed or not, leave you quite a bit more vulnerable, and escaping them safely can be a bit of a gamble. I also lowered the damage dealt (from HornyMod) on an escaped H-scene, and removed all damage dealt on completed ones (although I did keep the completed H-scene healing in).
Your Mana Regen now scales very slightly with max mana. This does mean that at extremely high maximum mana values it's theoretically possible to have your shield up at all times, but that would take extremely heavy investment in INT and to be near the level cap, at which point you should already have better ways to deal with enemies.
Player attack damage has been reduced, partially to compensate with the higher frequency of Skill usage. Upon getting hit yourself, you have a shorter invulnerability window and are left in very slightly longer hitstun - you can now get comboed, much like you can combo your enemies, so be careful! Combat can be pretty swingy.
Overall, the game is slightly more difficult and more magic/Skill focused, encouraging hit-and-run tactics. I wanted to play into the idea of being hunted, and having to outwit your predators to survive. Or you can always just charge in and use the much more appealing Resurrection! It's up to you!
I Placed Assembly file in the wrong folder 
Thanks for the prompt response, I think I got it working now.
Thanks for the prompt response, I think I got it working now.This next version is building on the previous, and based on Kmod_VerPregnancy1ControllerKingJulien.
Along with some more experimental alterations, essentially all changes from the other mod are found here - although they all have notable interactions with the Pregnancy mechanic. Resurrection, for one, is a lot more dangerous here, as being caught with a low Contraceptive value can end your game. To slightly compensate for that, you can now Resurrect while pregnant, although I'd suggest not bothering if your game-over timer is near-zero (I also increased the timer length for now, so it's a bit less stressful to deal with.)
And as a slight kicker, you regen 10% max health whenever you get inseminated by a non-boss enemy (basically, anything that could get you pregnant), which might make it sliiightly more appealing to allow "risky sex".
Mana regeneration scaling is slightly more involved - you have slightly lowered mana regen overall, but you scale more strongly with max mana, so if you put a decent chunk of your level-ups into INT you might find yourself with far higher mana regen than you could in vanilla.
Likewise, your base weapon attack damage is cut to just 25% of what it would be in vanilla - although you now scale much more strongly with STR, making it a useful stat, even lategame! Moreover, your damage dramatically increases at high Arousal and low Contraceptive - at 100% Arousal and 0% Contraceptive, you'll have up to a 175% damage modifier compared to vanilla (which is 7x your base weapon damage in this mod), plus the extra from STR if you invested in it! So, if you're willing to risk it, you can absolutely blow through enemies if you so choose. For now, health potions slightly reduce your Contraceptive value so you can try the new multipliers out, but that will be removed in the future.
(I plan on organizing any future modifications on this post, so they're easier to find and I don't spam up the thread!)
(Future plans - Higher level cap, more in-depth scaling, allow CParts to convert into potions when at full Contraceptive value? , additional mechanics for being unclothed (that befit a "riskier" playstyle - higher damage and movespeed? Maybe the Blood Skull provides Mana when clothed and Health when not?), more tactical combat, scarier enemies, deeper impregnation mechanics and interactions? (create costs and benefits of being a "breeder"?), optional records/counter for sex acts, stamina mechanics?? (but in a way that preserves sequence-breaking techniques.) additional dialogue?)

Here are some of my proposal / idea, they come from my lack of skill in programming
- Varying piston / sex scene speed base on monster's HP: The idea of passing a gene before perish, and doing in either easy mode only, hard mode only, or both. I think each sex scene has fixed duration, which can make higher piston speed = higher number of pumping = KMod's variables change more.
- Find a way detect the state change for all of the sex scene: In the gallery, you will find that most of the sex scene has different number of "state" where each state will have some slight different animation. If you detect the trigger that cause the animation state to change, you can build a foundation for a better 1st person perspective dialog, 2nd person perspective. dialog, 3rd person perspective dialog, or descriptive one.
- Make the in-game menu baby doll blushes where the opacity of blush is based on arousal value; I actually know how to do this but I'm too lazy to implement it.
- Make the abortion version of KMod: I once has an idea where; in the pregnancy game over version, instead of force game over, player can choose to resurrect but with cost of additional debuff (I imagine a fetus is draining her strength). I tried it before with a cycle of MP drain (come with a moan) but I have no clue how to balance it.

About a possible "abortion" version of KMod - I'd like to avoid anything that permanently negatively "marks" the save file, if possible, so any changes that are made to the file should be somehow reversible. I *was* toying around with the idea of develing a player when the timer runs out (prioritizing lowering Int/Mana - your "rational" mind is being broken down), and I think I might experiment with that in the future. And that's a nice note on finding a way to detect the state of an H-scene - that's something I was thinking about myself! As for the blushing in-menu babydoll, that's a cute and clever idea that I really like! Currently most of my programming-brain is focused towards other projects so I might not look into it myself all that soon, but that's definitely a feature I'd be really interested in.
Anyway, today's iteration has some arguably extreme changes that may be reversed or toned down in the future.
Xenos are now much more dangerous, but they provide potions more consistently when you're unclothed and either aroused or have a low contraceptive level. They're faster, harder to stunlock, and their attacks can no longer be interrupted so easily. Moreover, they now have a slight heal-over-time effect, making it impossible to cheese them through safespot-based attrition. These changes are meant to make them a *lot* scarier - until you're decently kitted out, they're best avoided if at all possible. I wanted to bring in some of the fear that SA-X used to inspire. I also intend on giving them a way to break shields - maybe their lunge?
In addition, escaping or completing an Hscene while being highly aroused, especially with a low contraceptive level, grants you decent amounts of CParts you can use to regenerate your contraceptive level. Health Potions no longer decrease contraceptive level (that feature was only there for testing) and now instead raise your arousal level if you're unclothed outside of a boss room. This should let you rapidly boost your attack damage when you need it most - but only when you're at least slightly at risk for impregnation.
Resurrecting now gives you the KMod debuff and also removes all your A-C Parts. It also leaves you in a state where the next Hscene will be practically inescapable. On the flip side, allowing yourself to be inseminated heals you for a decent chunk now, so it's a pretty nice way to stay at full health.
These changes are all meant to further incentivize high-risk high-reward style gameplay.
I also plan on altering high-jump slightly - it should be a mobility and exploration tool, rather than a way to easily cheese encounters. Figuring out a way to do that without messing with its ability to let you navigate (or making fights where it's required, like the Mother Brain bossfight) might be tricky, though. I also intend to slightly rebalance the Poison Wave ability - at the moment, it is *so* so strong. Maybe make it veryyy slightly poison the player as well? Giving monsters a tiny bit of extra speed across the board might be good, too. Backdash is a pretty interesting but underutilized ability, so giving players a *reason* to use it might be nice.
(The next iteration is about ready to go - altered speed for most basic enemies that have Hscenes, and increased their patrol range - they should now come at you en masse, and their altered speed coupled with their patrol range should allow them to coordinate their attacks to a certain extent. They all still have trouble with verticality, though...)

Mothafacka you better be lyin' cuz if that ain't true I'm gonna dox you and then I'm gonna go Samuel.L.Jackson on yo ass
Don't worry - I don't intend to turn this game into a soulslike (although admittedly some of their design choices could be inspiring, come to think of it). If anything, I'm trying to make the game *less* attrition-based, so players don't have to worry about waiting around as much - I intend for all players to be able to go at their own pace.
For the most part, these edits will keep things as casual as always. But injecting a bit of tension into xeno encounters is probably a good thing imo - they're *meant* to be kind of dramatic, I think. Getting jumped and overwhelmed by a bunch of xenos could be kinda exciting, don't you think?
Speaking of which, the next iteration should make attacking slightly smoother - the last attack in the 4-hit combo no longer results in nearly as much lag time. Moreover, the delay on backdashing has been lowered. This should increase mobility overall - you can button-mash to your heart's content, if that's your style. I also intend to make HScenes reward you with some exp, and maybe some other little bonuses, so you'll be able to slut it up as a "viable option"!

Challenging is okay, just don't force it to make it too hard. The first encounter with xeno is probably dramatic to most people because it's like a difficulty jump just happen at that moment.
Speaking of mod, so far, we have like a lot of gameplay mod, which make me think that the graphic / art department of this game also need some love too.
Yup! The grey xenos - the weakest ones - benefit the least from these changes (although you should probably still run from them at first), but I'll make sure to keep this in mind. It also should be noted that for the most part these changes really only affect the "Ambush"/"Event" xenos - if you're the one that gets the jump on them, rather than the other way around, they shouldn't be nearly as tough.
I also realized that the base attack adjustment is kinda harsh on people who for some reason want to attempt a completely chaste playthrough, so the next iteration will tweak it slightly - the base attack reduction will be slightly less, and just being unclothed will give you a slight boost as well. You'll still probably mostly rely on your Skills if you want to entirely avoid the risk of sex in your porn game, but that would be true no matter what.
Spikes will be now *much* less likely to stunlock and kill you - this was something that was actually an edge-case issue stemming from vanilla. Spike deaths aren't fun or hot - they're just annoying.
I'm also vaguely thinking of removing/lessening the KMod debuff "aura" - the UI itself already tells you something's off, and the afterimages can get a little distracting. I'll give it a ponder later.
There's also an unexpected interaction involving Facehuggers and extremely high Aphrodisiac levels that I'll be sure to fix.

I do like this version a little bit more, but I still prefer the holding shift while attacking to start a scene and then dealing damage from that scene kinda gives you a second way to play then just swing at everything but this way is pretty good as well makes it harder but if you lose you can revive without ending in a complete crutch
