Pathfinding for the monsters seems kind of wacked as they often get stuck in place or loose track of where to go to reach the MC. That and clothing doesn't seem to ever get striped off of the MC so you have to start without the clothing. Only bugs I've seen so far.
As for suggested tweaks, ammo drops could use some tinkering since they seem to happen pretty rarely and they is no other way to restock. Shotgun is so far very underwhelming, even the pistol fairs better overall despite being outmatched in damage per round. It being a breach loader and having a painfully slow reload animation just kills its usefulness. AK seems fine as is.

Hey, great so far. You can climb out of the map at the top right cliff though. But the strobilimorph (?) animations are great, and original. Thank you to the fucking stars for not just doing goblins. I'll watch this one, for sure.

Nevermind I found it. You gotta get hit by their attack where they "scoop" towards the ground with both hands
edit: I cannot spell "Strobilomorph" to save my life

ngl this is a solid update, the thing with the serrated one where they activate their grab when hit by the pheremones from one of the females is kinda cool even if it's somewhat glitchy

Would love to see bigger pregnant belly and slower gestation time
My memory getting worse, since I remember totally different gameplay in Condemned...

Thanks you for the one handed mode! The one reason i never finished captivity was the lack of one. If an H-game can't be played one-handed what's even the point lol?

Nope, different games and different devs, both basing themselves on the artstyle and gameplay of Captivity.
Also, fun if Aishteru is YET AGAIN brought back to life, despite the dev trying their best to scam with the last iteration of it.

The main mechanic that this game is missing is proper recoil. And right after that, the "float" mechanic when you run off a ledge. (Most games that feature any sort of jumping or platforms, have a built-in "float" mechanic for jumping, where even if you are 1/4 of a second off a ledge, you can still jump. However in this game it feels like you can't jump even when you are still on the platform, just on the ledge.)
Then there's the missing headshot/critical hit detection. For humanoids, obviously the head would be the prime target, however for the things crawling on the ground, specific parts could be hit for extra damage, instead of aim not mattering at all. Then there's also the fact that Captivity had a specific mechanic for dealing with enemies that are often hidden behind corpses, or generally hard to hit on the ground - You should be able to just walk over the mini-worms to kill them instantly, instead of having to shoot each one.
There's no roll either, despite Captivity's gameplay heavily relying on it. Ammo refills are also not really a thing in this (even something as simple as being able to rebuy the same gun from the wall should be an option).

To be fair, ammo DOES drop from fallen enemies and it resupplies your currently equipped weapon. But yeah, otherwise your points I can agree with.
Although it should be said that this is a pretty early demo, so things are subject to be added in (so I assume recoil / critical hits and special mechanics will be part of this in the future.)
Here's hoping the Captivity Curse doesn't kill this project too.
