Unreal Engine Bioasshard Arena [v1.0.241 R3] [VersusX]

anyone putting health drain from sex in a sex game is a retard
make character sluggish with infection or something but leave health alone

 

[riicky83]

Here it is: Arousal mechanics tied into Infection and modifying a bunch of factors in the game in order to create a more potently immersive experience, as well as to encourage sex to happen more often and with more nuance and variety, while also giving the player a solid reason to try their hardest to avoid it and play the game more "legitimately" (the biggest motivator would be to design compelling missions, but that's outside the scope of this document).
This is a 2.0 of an earlier "mind map" that was more logic-focused and looked fairly spaghetti-ish. This one is considerably more readable and much more visually organized. It also deliberately has redundancy of information in order to avoid relevant related information from being overlooked, as well as to reduce effort on part of the reader by not having to trace logic from node to node. It also is more text-heavy to ensure sufficiently adequate explanation is provided (for the most part — above bare minimum, at least).

Some feedback I'm looking for:
-Typos (I did notice I used "eg" in one section and "i.e." in another, but maybe that could slide...I hope)
-Anything that feels unclear or seems like it could have further (or different) explanation, especially for a game developer
-Any wordings that could be misinterpreted or have difficulty crossing the language barrier (since at least one of the devs is ESL (Latin country?) and some phrases can fail to connect, even with speakers of high proficiency)
-Sections that feel incomplete, game-wise (I tried to make this as solid as possible, while still being somewhat open and flexible for whatever their needs, ideas, and specific development circumstances might be or become, or whatever unexpected issues might appear down the road, but it's still possible that someone might have a conceptualization that's more "complete" than the one that's presented)
-Any issues or suggestions regarding the layout and the mind map itself (colors, connections, arrangement, information being swapped or consolidated between nodes)
-Anything else, positive or negative

[User Deleted], if you approve of it, maybe wait a bit until others chime in with their feedback, be it "here are every one of my thoughts" or "cool." Also, I can message you my email to pass to them, if it seems the devs want to reach out.

The arousal system might tie into a different feature. Imagine Julia getting so aroused that the warning for dodging doesn't appear, aiming might be a little harder and you have to make Julia masturbate to clear her mind so that her ability to aim and the dodge warning returns to normal.

I did include the option to have infection levels cause health drain at a constant rate instead of only during sex, if you read the full bubble/node in question.
"Make the character sluggish" they already do that (the inflation mechanic). The point of doing it this way is to give the player a reason to try to actually not lose on purpose every time you get grabbed. If there's no real penalty, then there's no real reason to try.
Plus, most games based around combat+sex, especially the "darker" ones, all make sex have the possibility to lead to a Lose condition and have a game over sequence. That would just make this game more in line with others.

I could slide that into the list as like an "Awareness" factor. The dodge notification could also become more subtle somehow, like not using the bright colors to alert you, if you aren't paying total attention. Maybe that could happen at Mid levels and then High could have it randomly not show up.
One point, though, is I don't remember seeing the dodge warning appear before grabbing occurs, only before a physical attack. Maybe they could make the grabs dodge-able, as well. That would help when things get tough and make it seem more of a penalty when higher arousal levels are reached.

Now add a pregnancy system, remember the Drain Deimos from RE3 Remake.. That was kinda hot

 

[Steven Granger]

The main issue I ran into when thinking about a pregnancy mechanic is: what happens when you give birth to the monster child?
I really like the idea of having my character get pregnant, but I just can't work out how it would function in this game.

I've only played one game whose pregnancy integrates well into gameplay, Parasite in City. The female protagonist can get impregnated by the bug enemies and when she gives birth the offspring immediately becomes that same bug enemy that you have to fight.

 

[Dhitz]

It seems to me some people have no idea whats the difference between a parasite and an infant/newborn.
First one might cause disease/infection/damage to the host or 'just' devour resources. the newborn NEED its mother to sustain it.... or it will die.
I just dont understand ppl with the pregnancy brainrot.
So far i have seen only one game where pregnancy have any logical function in the game
and that was Mudblood. I guess there are similar games, but Bioasshard defo not that kinda game..

That's exactly the mechanic I thought of, but wasn't sure if they'd add insects. It'd be nice to have multiple parts of her body get impregnated that aren't normally supposed to (ass, breasts, bladder, etc.), but I just can't think of anything close to satisfactory for the existing kinds of Infected (and those teased in the gallery level).

 

[Steven Granger]

I updated the chart:
-included the "Dodge" mechanic in the Attacked (Grabbed) node
-added a Dodge Mechanics node with effects based on arousal level (both granular and bracket)
-changed "eg" to "i.e." in one parenthetical in the Arousal node, in order to be consistent with another instance
-made the underline for some lines no longer include the brackets (these guys [ ]) to, hopefully, improve readability a little

riicky83 Does this look good to you?

well Maybe yeah I confused a little. A parasitic sounds hot enough, have one type of enemy that causes parasitic in her womb, reducing her speed and staminaand whenever it sucked enough it would emerge and be a lesser type of that enemy. The drain deimos in re3 remake literally mouthfucks Jill and inserts his egg into her stomach and if it isnt treated she would die a gruesome death where multiples mini drain deimos emerge from her

Looks good so far.
It did annoy me how the escape feature is easy at times due to a simple button mash over a good period of time. The arousal feature could help in reducing the time that you can escape from the grab.

 

[Lemonsofliberty]

Snip

Captivity does this really well too, both with flies in the cave level and aliens in the space station level

I think something like that could be implemented as a unique situation. Like, most Infected can't get her pregnant or anything, but this thing (or whatever version of it they make for this game) could implant eggs inside of her and it would probably make sense to the player.
I'm not sure I'd want it to result in a horrific death, though. Maybe she could birth eggs that would immediately hatch and release smaller versions of the creature that would scurry around the room and maybe attack you.
Would be a nice excuse to get some anal (and maybe oral) birth in there.

Thanks.
Yeah, sometimes it's easy and other times it seems easy to mess up (when using the keyboard — idk about controller). Like, I typically use both index fingers when grabbed by the big Infected guys, since I can't afford to mess that up. But, I emphasized the struggle aspect during sex, in my document, to make sure they actually make that a thing, since it currently tells you to mash F to escape, but you just have to tap it once after a couple seconds and it'll end the sequence with no fuss or effort.
Speaking of the big Infected, I kinda don't like the idea that it's an instant Game Over if you get boinked by one of them. I get that you can't physically escape from them at that point. So, maybe they get tired for a bit after ejaculation and you can use that time to try to escape, but it means that you are guaranteed to be locked in for that duration (which could mean death if your health is low and infection high). That would at least allow you to experience their scenes more often, rather than ideally not at all.

 

[Xenon-San]

Thanks.

Wait you are the actual dev? if so they the game looks great so far but it lacks "polish" and "more" good luck

No. Go back a page to see for your own.

 

[Steven Granger]

Based. I'm glad you thought that, even though it's not true.
And if you go back a couple more pages, you'll see [User Deleted] shared an actual dev report and video update where the guy says that their intention is to start focusing on exactly those things (polish and "more," both content and animations) once they get everything set up and working in Unreal 5.

That sounds great that [User Deleted] is really nice guy i often see him posting stuff here, shame i don't have acess to him, do you need premium F95 zone to see his posts?
also someone tell an actual dev to provide us with gameplay options so we may customize the experience

Will this be in this update or later? And when will the update come out? Thanks in advance.
