Unreal Engine Bioasshard Arena [v1.0.241 R3] [VersusX]
If I exit the game after completing a mission, will my progress save? Or do I have to beat the entire game in one sitting?

If you complete the mission by arriving at the unlocked green marker, yes. It should save it. Don't know about the inventory, though, it seems to be saved in my playthrough.

I dont even wanna attempt completing Mission 4 after reading that. Maybe if the game had a good map and a much more noticable way to show key items. I really hope this dev realize the damage Mission 4 can do to his playerbase.

Considering I got the codes by simply opening the pak file in a hex editor... yeah they probably should be more "restrictive". At least encrypt the whole pak not just the index.
Part of my unpleasant experience was due to mistakes I made along the way. I would really encourage you to try it for yourself to form your own opinion. My only piece of advice for a better experience is: Once you reach the Crystal and the sewing machine, keep moving forward, don't turn right across the water until you have 2 Fuses (third fuse will be on a blue barrel on the path to elevator pit)
But yeah, it's the kind of level that would make me never think of replaying the game simply because I don't want to go through the entire thing again.
I guess another reason why I dislike is also because it's unrewarding whatsoever. I got 0 unlocks from it and no new animations.

They just implemented a new Model for Jill and changed the PhysX based Physics to a custom one.
This is the first Release with that new Features. Of course it takes some optimisation.
Just dont redicule these two. Thats poor mannerism. Give them constructive criticism and leave it at that.
And dont forget that this is NOT a Game in development! It is the creation of the essentials. Not a Game. A Testingground. You cant expect a functioning Game.
And seriously, you people are here to rip the Game. You are not in the Position to complain. It would be something else, if you where a Patreon of them and are paying Money to them for Progress...
But most of you are not paying anything for this. You get Content for free here.
So Show some Respect. At least read the Changelog.
Heres some Info from the Devs about everything new in this Build:
If you don’t want to read me crying, then skip it to--->>
Just as what happened with the release of 0.1.XX with my “new” pc, started happening again since the past two weeks or so. Meaning constant freezing and auto-restarting, but this time didn’t look related to GPU temperature but something else… what else? I don’t really know and couldn’t find it, maybe it’s still the summer in here where I live that kills any pc, but mainly when UE4 is up and running, when not I can do whatever I want that it won’t freeze lol. This caused the final steps for this release to slow down a lot, reducing considerably my working time.
But if that wasn’t enough, then we’re finally done and ready to compile, aaaand UE4 decides to throw a critical error (I have to include here a “nonsense” as well) preventing me from compiling the game. You can’t even imagine what I felt during these 3-4 days, the stress… weeeell anyway, to make the story short, UE4 decided to change the way it read a type of variable, and changing that variable type to… just the same type it was and compile the code… solved it! xD. Yeah, something this absurd, delayed the release like 4 days. But it took me so many days to find the problem because the error thrown gave no information at all, just a bunch of lines pointing an error on .dlls… yeah DLLs, something that has nothing to do with how you code in UE4 XD (I should have saved the error code to show you so if you have some knowledge on UE4 could see just how “helpful” that error code was).
So, this was basically the last two weeks or so. Good thing is that now that stupid error is solved and the release is about to be done so like they say “All's well That ends well” lol. But this caused a problem. I couldn’t test it as much as I wanted to and this derived in no video-walkthrough for this release, for now (hopefully just like it happened with the 0.1.XX release, my PC will stop freezing and I’ll be able to record again) so I count on you guys to report any unmentioned bug you happen to find.
>>--- Here I finished crying xD.
On to other things, even after making the changelog I noticed I forgot a few additions that have been made, so I’ll mention them here and take the time to expand on some others mentioned:
If you don’t want to be spoiled on some surprises then skip this to --->>
· Destructible meshes has been added. This means you can knife stab or shot some objects and see them how they rip apart. For now, there’s only a few of them and just in one Mission, but the next step in those destructible meshes is to make boxes, plants, etc., etc. destructible so you can find items inside of them.
· Added a new type of interactable object. This time a lever. Said lever can be working at first or it can be linked to a puzzle you must complete first.
· Added an Elevator. But unfortunately, this time is not for you to hop on in but rather to move something else. This was added in a last instance and that’s why we didn’t have a mesh for it, so I improvised something quick, that’s why it’s so ugly, but don’t pay attention to its look but it’s mechanism xD. By the way this can be linked to any other type of interactor, like a puzzle or a lever.
· Remember those light beams puzzles present in Devil May Cry or in Resident Evil 5? Well, something along those lines has been added. It’s a WIP it has to be expanded in order to let you make things like grab them, rotate them, etc. For now, they’re in place but their light beams can be occluded by any other object on its way. Don’t worry though! They won’t kill you if you touch them like in RE5 xD.
· In Resident Evil 5 and 6 as well as some other, you can find those shootable stones that make you unlock extras, right? Well, we started making this implementation, right now there are only on one mission and they serve as a way to unlock only one thing.
· The dismemberment system and how it works: Some time ago, we shown an image of an Infected with his head rip open and we didn’t say what it was. Some people got it right just with that, while some other thought it was a new type of enemy. Unfortunately for the latter, it’s a dismemberment system. It works using the Critical % parameter of the weapon. The handgun has a low critical % parameter and there’s no weapon upgrading in yet available, but it still happens many times, but even though, we added a new Fantasy Card to improve the Critical parameter. Right now, it’s only implemented at about 55% because you can’t dismember legs yet, mainly because there’s no crawling enemy’s mechanics and AI implemented yet. So, to dismember the head just aim for the head, pretty easy, huh? To dismember arms, make sure you hurt it first (when the enemy can’t move it) then once hurt, shoot at it again to dismember it. Dismembering both arms, causes enemies to die, because they’re just useless xD.
· Another thing we did is to get rid of Physx for skin simulations like the jiggly things for Julia, to a better system and to get rid of the problems some of you may have for having a screwed physx installation.
· The dodge system: Pressing F in the right moment (shown on screen) allows you to dodge an attack. But only attacks, no grabs. And not always, because you have to have enough stamina to do it, and the distance at which the attack started have to be close enough for Julia to notice it. Saying this, it’s clear that to avoid the fast attacks that the Big Guy does, you’ll have to smash the F button once you see him coming XD. Also, the dog’s attacks are a bit tricky to dodge sometimes, since they may attack from too far.
· Another system that makes use of the stamina bar is the physical attack system. This system has been implemented to help you get out of situations like being surrounded by enemies with your weapon empty. It’s not meant to make Julia a Street Fighter character xD but to help her get out on situations like that. So even if she can kill enemies with those attacks, don’t expect that to happen frequently and also, make sure Julia is facing the enemy you want to hit, otherwise you’ll frustrate at her attacking right at the side of such enemy while he’s looking at her waiting for the right moment to attack xD.
· The system we decided to call CQC, is what RE features since RE4, where you damage a key zone, like the head, a leg or an arm and sometimes the enemy get stunned by the pain allowing you get closer to him and pressing the key shown on the screen to cause a huge damage on him. This was shown on a past screen too, and some people also imagined what it was. But I screwed it up and while some of you (sorry, can’t remember the name -.-') corrected on the comments “attack on floor” wasn’t the correct way of writing it, but… I forgot to fix it -.- Also, this system is still a WIP, and sometimes it acts weird making Julia to move out of the range of attack and causing a beautiful attack to thin air, while the enemy recovers peacefully from his stunning. Last thing is, while you can physically attack dogs, you can’t CQC them (they don’t dismember either yet).
· Another implementation is the wandering system for the other enemies other than the dogs. So now they won’t have to be standing still. With the implementation of this system I realized we gonna need a better pathfinding system other than the one implemented in UE4, because it’s really “amazing” to see how retard this system can be making enemies walk against a wall infinitely… lol. The code I use it’s pretty simple to be honest, I first get a random location inside a radius, but making sure such location is REACHABLE by the enemy, then make the enemy go there… and the result… well you already could see it with the dog, but you’ll be able to see it with the other enemies as well now xD. So, for the future we have two options, trying to get A* pathfinding algorithm implemented on UE4, or changing completely the wandering system for a patrolling one with manually specified correct target locations… what do you preffer? A random moving enemy or with specified constant paths that can allow you to learn their movement to avoid being spotted?
· The new and definitive Title Screen has been implemented. Yeah, this is the title screen the final game will have, at the beginning we decided to add and modify a marketplace bought asset of a title screen for the Arena, just to avoid losing time implementing one from zero. But as time has been passing, I thought it would be cool to have something ready for the final game already, so started implementing the Title screen, the Pause screen and the character customization screen. There’re some options yet to be implemented but they’re already there (in gray) so you can see what they will be.
>>--- ‘Till here the end of the spoilers
Something I want to mention again even if it’s been pointed before is that there’s no save system implemented yet. And also, there’s no new Sexttack animations, because they’ve been not necessary for what we’re implementing (if you have any question yet about this, make sure you read
One important thing is, that because we’re working on the future save system, I had to overwrite a lot of the code used to save options and unlockables, this resulted in compatibility issues with previous releases. So, you’ll have to configure options again to get them save, and will also have to fight for the unlockables to properly save them now (besides, we changed the unlockable requisites a bit, but don’t worry because we’ll give all of them with the release post).

+Fix+ Julia and enemies meshes are a bit floaty (in the sewers sequence it may look like Julia is still floating when the camera moves far from her, but that's a visual glitch from UE4 making her shadow to disappear on her feet)
+Fix+ Knife stabs won't show enemy damage animations
+Fix+ Sometimes even when the button is showing up to get an item, Julia still won't get it
+Fix+ Some morphs aren't working with the new Julia's outfit
+Fix+ When opening the door to the Mansion in Mission 2, the rain appears inside it
+Fix+ Sometimes the porch floor won't appear wet like it should in Mission 2
+Fix+ Character customization background lines cover some important parts of Julia's model, like her face
+Fix+ Some levels are missing the way to capture environment light to project it onto Julia, causing her to have some green reflections in some areas like her eyes
+Fix+ Enemies can grapple Julia for Sexttacks other than the blowjob one when the new outfit is still a no-go for those
+Fix+ (Not totally confirmed that this is fixed) Landscapes like the Exterior area have problems with physic interactions like enemies going ragdoll when dying causing a Fatal Error
+Fix+ Julia shaders have a too strong SSS
+Fix+ Some navmeshes aren't properly built
+Fix+ Title screen is still warning about some unbuilt lighting for objects
+Fix+ Enemies shot after jumping over an obstacle will make them falling to floor instantly in an unnatural way
... and a lot behind the scenes work.
I hope that claryfies a lot.
People voicing their complaints about the game is a form of feedback, as unpleasant as it might be. The fact that it is a testing phase is even more of a reason for them to absorb as many opinions as possible.
If the developers listen to user input and find reasonable ways of addressing it (must be careful not to cater to a particular group too much or let them dictate the direction of the game) they can win over more supporters.
There was a quote attributed to Steve Jobs that went something like this: "At the end of the day people will not care about how hard you tried but what came out of it."
same..Yeah i'm kinda got scammed, didn't receive any unlockables. I've beaten the whole game again from scratch and still cannot even change the name.
great game (pre-game) btw
Then, they shouldn't be asking for money EACH month for accessing a "testground". Yeah you're right, making a game isn't easy. Especially for two-guys developers. But, i can buy the AAA games for $60. But patreon devs? They're wants $50 for full features of this game. And they asking $50 EACH MONTH. Can you imagine? Each month. Not one-time pay like AAA games. And they're just updating the game every 4-5 months. Not every month. Not just this devs, most of the patreon devs doing this. You know why the porn games (mostly) not exist on Steam? Cause of this. If they publish their game on Steam, they can't take people's money each month.
If they publish the game on Steam right now with early access, i'll pay $30. And be honest, this game deserves $30 max. But if they wants $10-20-30-40-50 each month for a "testground", it is not fair. This is not supporting or funding a game. This called with another name....
They are thousands of early access games on Steam (some of them are porn games), their devs just wants one time pay from players(with fair price), funding and developing their games with this. This is supporting. People supporting indie game devs like this. And this is fair. Not each-month-pay patreon-way.
So, yeah, i'm(we're) in the position to complain

As far as I know, unlockables and such are reserved for patrons only. I'm not sure if this is intended, though I think it is, but if you just type in your fantasy card code for whatever level patron you are, you get all the customization features and the ability to unlock new things like costumes/hair. Unlockables always showed up as "Restricted/Unobtainable" at the end of missions before I put in the code, but worked just fine after. Mind you, I don't know if lower tier patrons get this, as I paid for the Eagle Patron ($10), but I imagine at least the $5 one will get you access to it as well, if not $1 as it has its own fantasy code I believe too.

Yeah, I feel like items could use a glow around them or something akin to that given the games current state, that or just give us a brightness option.
If you're searching for them though, the first is near the start, around the area you first fight zombies in if I remember correctly atop a box, another is on a side path that leads into a small dead end, lying atop a rock I believe in what is a relatively small circular area. The last is on the path that leads you towards the elevator, in one of the rooms that has multiple path's that branch out upon a blue barrel, one I believe that leads to the eleveator itself or where it should end up once you've activated it, the other leading into a large side room with zombies/dogs.

Eh, on one hand, you really don't have to pay for it, its not even being delayed this time for people who aren't paying. You might not get much access to many features, but you also only have to pay (realistically) once for each update if you want said customization features. Everyone has a right to complain and an opinion for sure, but to say that you have to pay each month just to test the game is just flat out untrue. The main reason games like these, at least optimally, even wind up going to something like patreon is because they require some funding to make it a venture that's worth putting time into. Games pretty ambitious overall at that (probably a bit too much so in my opinion when you consider the fact they plan to include multiple playable characters both male and female, and enemies to accommodate both), so its pretty fair I'd say that its going to take a long while and a fair bit of testing before the games complete.
Also, no, you really don't need to pay $50 even for the full amount of features, I paid $10 and got all the full features save for whatever card codes/cheat codes (as thats what they really are for the most part currently) those higher tiers *may* have gotten me, the only one I know of which is basically a free instant unlock for all the costumes without having to do anything in game save for typing the code. Even without paying you still get access to the full game, just none of its customization features yet. If that's something you'd like to complain about, I definitely understand your position, but at the same time, gotta at least give some incentive for people to pledge, even if its just for one month and a small amount.
As for Steam's porn game marketplace, I don't venture into it often, but the way I remember it for most games is basically just double dipping for games that do already have active patreons for a certain build of the game, or just translations of HRPG's, some of which already had fan translations to begin with, so its got its fair few issues to, not that I won't deny patreon has some as well, biggest example I can think of where I pledged and felt overall somewhat cheated is probably Eromancer/Malise and the Machine, as I'm pretty sure that game is still somewhere in development/engine transition hell.

All that out of the way, as for a general review of the game, I'd say its definitely going in the right direction overall, though there are definitely some frustrations that could be fixed here and there, as well as some obvious polishing that needs to be done.
For one, some of the pro's of this build, at least for me outside of the stage three bug that was in the initial version, I haven't experienced any crashes, whereas in the previous one mission 2 was absolutely unplayable due to it crashing ALL too often.
The new gameplay additions in the form of the dodge and RE4-6 melee system are both pretty fun when they work. I feel like the aoe melee attack that you do outside of a prompt could definitely use a slight buff or maybe some tweaking, as currently it takes up a whole hell of a lot of stamina, and doesn't really seem to do much damage unless you get the cartwheel kick, which can only somtimes lead to a insant ko with the knee drop to follow it up. Of course, there are times where the dodge prompt simply won't show up despite enemies attacking you/near you, and I'm uncertain as to whether thats a bug or intentional, but either way its worth mentioning, same with melee attacks sometimes missing when you hit the prompt after shooting their head/knee/arm.
The model itself does look better than what I remember of the last version for sure, and overall I'd say I like it, though it could definitely use some work overtime if you want to put more into it. I'd personally be just fine if it stays mostly as it is right now, though won't deny, the way the ass jiggle physics work when you are running in this game seems to be dialed up to 11. It just looks too jiggly and waaaay unnatural overall.
As for my biggest gripes right now... its 100% everything to do with finding key items as well as interacting with certain objects. The manhole in particular is a god damn nightmare, spent around 5 minutes circling it just trying to hit the right angle before FINALLY managing to interact with and enter it. I also think that key items, particularly ones that are placed in generally out of sight or less traveled places should have some sort of glint/glow to them, as well as the interactable item they are meant to be used with. The sewer in mission two was painful for me, would have never found the one on the roof in particular without some online guidance, and the fuses in the mines can be pretty difficult to pick out at times. The game is also just WAAAAY too dark in some areas, a brightness setting, or maybe even just a toggle-able flashlight attached to your outfit could solve this pretty well though. Oh, and of course, a save function, or restart at checkpoint function would be an absolute blessing if you can manage to include it sooner than later. Nothing more annoying than losing near an hour of progress due to a crash(thankfully, none of which happened for me this time around), power outage, or just not having the full time to commit to finish a level due to some of these more frustrating moments of just mindlessly searching for items.
Still, all in all, definitely like where this is headed for the most part, and I can understand a lot of this is still just being tested/alpha, but some more quality of life features being implemented in the next version would go a LONG way to smoothing out a lot of the pain with this game, and maybe even just finding someone to do some bug testing before an initial release just to find some of those more quickly tested/discovered bugs, like the third mission crashing at the end, and managing to get stuck in corners forcing a restart and such... also the infinite reload bug which is absolutely crushing if you don't manage to find an enemy to slap you out of it. Still, if the developer does read this, keep up the good work anyways, this is by and far still the closest/best RE sex parody that has yet to be developed, and is something I'd love to see fully realized. If there is any long term suggestion I can give as well... try to focus on just one character/campaign for now, and make a more or less full game for them before moving onto anything else. Can't count how many times I've seen interesting indies, or even triple AAA games enter development hell and wind up half baked or unfinished due to this very problem.
