- Chica is really, really slow. As much it improves the atmosphere, it increases the playtime by a lot.
While intentional since she's not only slower than the 1x speed of a RPGM character, the dash function is taken away too; but I would still like to know WHY given that the map of the game is quite big, and there seems to be plans for the player to backtrack quite often in the future, with the shop system and all.
- Chica being a healer with lackluster prowess here makes the game quite sluggish to play, even with Carla-Cake, who has essentially the same stats as Chica. With the lack of healing items early on (especially with the vending machine being so friggin' expensive), most that she can provide is double damage.
In FNAFb you start out with Freddy, who is an all-rounder that makes grinding with early enemies manageable with his Top-Hat Throw and decent stats, which only gets better with the other party members.
Meanwhile Chica requires at least 8 hits even on Level 4 to take out Paperette (since Small Condoms don't give you enough exp), with how some Heat is removing upon winning a battle, there's very little opportunity for you to use Carla's Mosh Cake without getting her or Chica killed first.
Thus making battles with the more advance enemies bit of a live-or-die situation where it depends on your health rather than how much damage you do, since there's not much improvement on stats nor skills for leveling up atm.
Maybe make Carla-Cake a Glass Canon or starting out with some support skills to use? I'm rather sick of having to walk back to the vending machine or the pizza place.
- Despite being displayed in the menu, the amount of Heat you have isn't accounted for outside of battle. Obviously this is a quirk stemming from it being built off the TP system in the regular RPGM, but for something that affects your battles deeply, better that it's fixed quickly than to persist into late development.
- The game says I'm naked, yet in-battle, there's only sprites without the top. Which... is understandable lol
Speaking of the clothing system, is there a reason for us to not go streaking all the time in a porn game?
- Why does a message saying "chica heal" appear everytime Chica uses Sm. Pizza Toss skill on herself?
- Upon dying and receiving a Game Over, you're send to the RPG Maker default title screen instead of the custom one for the game.

- And one last thing, why is the Saving screen so slow?
Overall, it's a huge improvement in visual from the last version, which I really liked!
Though as mentioned above, there's a lot of nitpicks, but nothing that can't be fixed.
A lot of these issues are fixed in the new build, the leaked build is a few months old believe it or not.
- Chica is still slow but I have plans to give her a custom dash animation with a startup before she runs and I'm going to introduce a fast travel system that adds to the atmosphere. (The dash won't be in the next build since I'm still working on other animations)
- Chica is meant to be a big girl who can take a beating and dish out some proper damage. I gave her some more skills in the next build to counter her simple playstyle.
- Carla doesn't gain skills and instead I'm trying to work her into an accessory type character who can equip multiple upgradeable chips that buff her stats or give her skills.
- Chica had her heat reset before after every combat and it only retained in hard mode. I changed this so that even in normal mode you retain heat so running away too much without cooling down can lock you into a fight for a turn.
- It's my fault I don't explain it but when you get a status debuff you can hover over it to show what it does in a tooltip. I didn't program a tutorial to help explain it but being naked increases heat gain as a multiplier so it's not great to he nude (at the moment).
- It says Chica heal because I was making a system that checks when the player receives damage or heals themselves. I made an animation when she gets hurt but left a text box in to check when she heals. I intend to add animations for more actions depending on the context of the situation.
- It boots to the rpgmaker default menu due to a necessary case where I need to reset every switch back to 0 before opening the menu again.
- Also I don't have animations ready for Chica to be nude on the over world yet but when I do I'll add them to make it work better with scene context.
