After giving the game a try, and really enjoying the art style as sparse as it is, I've come to two major questions about where the game is headed.
Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad the game captured your attention enough for you to feel the need to engage with it!
First would be about the charm/corruption aspect, is it ever going to have more impact in the story? From where I've gotten to so far, it is only really necessary for one character's route to be unlocked. The rest of the cast of characters are degenerate enough that you just seem to need to gain influence with them to unlock most of their scenes. None of them come off as truly needing to be corrupted in any way to actually make it a plot point of the game.
You're right, charm and corruption are only
really necessary for Candace. As I wrote, my own head-cannon for the game changed such that they became less necessary for the story I was telling. Those thoughts, along with requests from early supporters for a "no spells" mode, combined to mostly make the spells unneeded. I
had intended to make different endings for whether the player used spells or not, and that may still happed in the future, once art has caught up with story.
are the characters set in stone as they are, or are you planning to add alternate personalities?
I don't have plans to
change the personalities of the characters per se, but I absolutely recognize that Cassandra is the weakest of the characters. Her personality is largely a product of trying to maximize the genres/fetishes in the game; I had written the four other characters and realized none of them were truly "slutty"
. Having at least one "slutty" character seemed necessary and Cassandra was all that was left.
Further to my earlier point about charm/corruption, Cassandra will be getting an overhaul once I implement a more robust charm/corruption system. More corruption will equal more slutty, so the player will have control over it.
If cheating/swinging is going to be included in a "monogamous" route you should probably add those tags to let others know what they'll be getting in to ahead of time.
For the record: there is a monogamous route with Cassandra. Or at least a route where you have no clear indications that she
isn't monogamous. But I agree that she's not a character that everyone would be into.
Sorry about the long comment, but I was actually enjoying this game enough to share my opinion on it. Keep doing what you think is best for your vision of the game, but some more clarity would be nice to keep down the disappointment to some players.
No apology necessary, thanks for the feedback!
