HTML Become Alpha [v0.3.63] [Grave Mercutio]

[grave_merc]

This is as solid a new game as you are ever likely to see.

Its got 1500 images, most of which are GIFs
Its sugarcube Twine (so easy to cheat)
Its actually got UX design points and isn't just base twine

Big thanks for that!

Criticisms so far - these are minor gripes.

No Gif should ever last more than 15-20 seconds that first GIF feels like it goes on for minutes and teh second one for over a minute. 99% of people aren't going to sit through that, the games massive already no point having content that no one is going to watch. One way round it is to split the gif into multiple gifs that the user can watch on the same screen.

I think you mean the webm's in the first passage? With the kung fu and alpha male shit? I thought that you can easily move along if you're bored with them, isn't it the case? Or do you prefer to watch everything in 100% and it's just anticlimactic that it takes too long for you?

The first decision obviously influences stats but the user isn't told what they do. I'm guessing heart means you have more charm? fist means you have more strength? It would be good to know what they are and what they will mean for the game before selecting them. I found out what they do a bit later but some form of initial introduction to the screens and stats would be great.

There should be a help bar above the buttons. If you click it there's a bit of tutorial. Doesn't it work or something? Or isn't it clear that it's clickable?

Things are greyed out sometimes and I can't figure out why, I could level up both stats but when i took a shit I could only level up one and know its greyed out. I don't really like the whole levelling up in the bathroom mechanic as its often occupied.

A small hint - you can level up in the garden when no one's around.

Also - the way it works is this - you can do an action just once a day. If you already done it - it will be grayed out. Also some of the actions are greyed out because you don't have enough Desire with that character (lips icon) or not enough energy.

I do like the humour, but seeing the same joke multiple times is going to start to grate especially with the delays. they are okay first time round

Thanks. Yeah, I tried to at least give random gifs here and there. But I'm aware it might be a turn off for some. Hopefully there will be enough content to make it feel really fresh each time.

For my 2 cents I fuckin love all the gifs, even the ones without tiddies or other erotic accoutrements. Totally fits with the tone.

Thanks man! I was definitely aiming at a specific tone, which I guess is not for everyone, but hopefully there will be enough of those who like it

its good for the first try, but the delay between some action is hard and savetime is endless.
in the cellar is an endless loop.

i didnt see the point off getting know better in Character sheet für love or dominance.
For affection is always higher as the current stat, that can be right.

Some of the effects need explanation

I'm not sure yet how to edit the first post, so here's a full 0.212 with images for offline play:

Thank you! What do you mean it's an endless loop? The cellar actually just appears during one special event, so the location is not implemented properly yet, but the event should be working fine I think.

Haha, thank you. Although it's already late where I live, so I'm finishing for tonight. Thank you all for your great feedback, it's been a hardcore day, but I feel I have couple small victories behind my belt, and it feels gooood

The Devs for Girl Life converted everything to .mp4 to help combat file size.

 

[leyre]

less memes, more actual content

 

[jhose15xs]

if the gifs are converted to mp4 or webm the size can become more lighther and the quality can be better

 

[kustmijnkloten4]

Haha, have fun

thx for the link,
2nd impression, waaay to many useless gifs, its funny but to much. Also try to use gifs from the characters self. but you're doing goo man, keep up the work.

ps: I have some suggestions if you like. add incest, lots of pervs here like it. add pregnancy. and maybe rape or mind control.

 

[MattCooper]

The game don't work, is stuck on the first image, can't do anything

 

[DawnofPain]

I will say that becoming an aspiring cult leader was pretty fun

Try the online version. If that works download HTML file posted on page 3?

Then it would be like all of the rest. Geez! There are already a million of those.

Absolutely agree with leyre.
I like this kind of game and kind of enjoyed trying this one out, but the game tries too hard to be funny.
Descriptions should describe - so it would be great to not have a joke after doing anything - and there is not a single reason to have a "funny" gif after every success or failure. There is a single image to describe the "House" location with three lines of text, and there's 3 gifs for looking inside a room and 3 other gifs for the "someone is knocking on the bathroom door" event, all of them unnecessary and unfunny.

Another thing I think would be nice to change, the way you level up. Besides having 3 or more gifs for that as well, I don't really like reading mentions of shit in my porn game. Making it a sleep time event would solve that and add a motivation to go to sleep, something that ends up being pushed away for being unnecessary.

I will keep an eye on future updates.

Does anyone have a problem with hitting the roll the dice button after knocking on Daphne's room in the morning

 

[Deleted member 2086605]

Don't listen to the haters, I'm digging the humor, I died the first time I got to the son's room and read the line "He must be a tough dude because his walls are covered in pictures of tough dudes". That kind of humor is right up my ally and the more gonzo you go with the yuks the more I'll like it. I can go online and watch all the porn in the world, your sense of humor is what will give you an edge and without it I won't have reason to play your game.
Porn doesn't know how to have fun anymore, it's too erotic and takes itself too seriously - have fun, don't give up on your vision and your creative voice. I'm cheering for you.

 

[putzseila]

Very promising, but the compression of the videos are too big and will inhibit many from downloading your game.
I'll follow up on your project... good luck.
