Java - Corrupted Saviors [Release 70b] [CSDev]

TLDR: Quite a good game with much potential. But vanilla-lovers beware.

Very rich in mechanics to the point of actual strategy. Good H-games tend to be good games first and H-games second, and this ticks the boxes. Helps that I'm quite a fan of text-based simulators and this game certainly is that. More systemic and involved than your pages of paragraphs Choose Your Own Adventure.

However, the corruption themes are not only of sexual nature, but also that of the degeneration of your three heroine's mental, physical, and social health. You'll rape them, beat them within an inch of their lives, and watch them turn from pure-hearted and well-meaning to abusive, self-destructive, and suicidal. You'll watch as their friends abandon them and their social lives crumble, and as the optimism and hope drain from their eyes as you break them.

So unless you're a fan of ryona or are otherwise a sadist, you might be turned off. I know I was.

Fantastic game. Most fun I've had actually playing the game and exploring the mechanics on this site. Fantastic theme as well. I think this is a unique method of corruption and it really appealed to me.

So far so good. Steep beginning.
Plenty of room for upgrades but as far as a WIP, this already provides hours of fun.

One of the things that could be improved upon is the clothing system. Maybe a bit more descriptive of the damage / clothing that changes as the hero's become more corrupted.

Yes please.

No art; don't care and doesn't affect my personal enjoyment or rating.

Writing is as strong as you'd want a text game to be. Scenario is familiar but welcome, voice is strong, narrative is limited but provides structure by being such without making me feel like I'd be better off reading a static story. I do have quibbles with the characterization: the engine is super neat and effectively mixes randomization and customization but still has continuity inconsistencies ( ).

Porn content has some scaling issues. Maybe I'm a thicky bobo but I struggle trying to get a given girl's shirt off with the dialog making it seem like she thinks showing skin is the end of her virtue, and then as soon as the fight ends the text tells me she's sucking off groups of random strangers on her own volition. I like corruption (one of my main kinks), but I don't feel like it's brought across as a consequence of my actions. Thank you for letting us toggle between ryona and tickling, but I don't get off with either. With the tickle-toggle set there're some janky text moments that read like a strong hint at violence that somebody crossed out 'beat to a bloody pulp' and scribbled 'tickled' underneath.

Gameplay could use polish. The learning curve isn't helped with the unclear stat abbreviations and randomly changing text colors; this is a good system but needs an unobtrusive explanation or brief rework or somethin'. It's also super annoying when they randomly take off: ramping a girl up to massive multipliers should open an ability to knock her ass out of the sky into a tentacle bed.

TLDR: I bitch about it cuz I love it; I hope you keep this up. Fuckloads of potential.

If you can handle text-only games and want to play something different, this feels like a breath of fresh air. It would be a 5/5 if I were smart enough to actually fully understand the combat mechanics, some stuff feels a bit off (but that may be because it's not finished yet)
