Browser version is superior in every way - it is faster to develop (debugger and other tools are integrated in env, easier than c++/c# language), multiplatform by default, easy dependency control, basically sandboxed.
true at the same time tho .exe usually has better performance and feature ceiling, also evrything that isnt mobile and cant run an .exe isnt worth having in the first place in my opinion. dont need to play this on my microwave, and fuck apple.

sorry to hear that. You can play on 'bookworm' difficulty to not bother with it much. Why do you dislike it? Is it because of implementation or you just don't like turn-based systems in general?
my comment was a bit curt, so i'll stress again that i really do like the game otherwise, and it is actually quite engaging overall

but for the combat, i think there are a lot of things which are unclear with it: positioning system is a bit unclear for one, as well as the difference between using stomach/uterus/etc for an attack (even though you can see the numbers change, i don't remember seeing why you should e.g. priotise gaining mana in the uterus vs. anything else), and the reason i think this is a problem is that it is easy to get blindsided and killed, because there is no option to heal or run (i'm not saying you should add these options), so if for example the player takes damage by grabbing the crystal without the pickaxe, then fails the agility check, you are down quite a bit of health already, so it is essential that all the battle mechanics are at least very clearly understood, otherwise you just wonder "how come I can't hit with a higher damage attack when I'm going to get killed in a few turns"

It may just be that this is not fully developed yet, or maybe it is my fault that I have misread the system or did not pay proper attention. It was the one thing that made me slightly frustrated.

positioning system is a bit unclear for one
enemies at the top are closest to you so you can hit them with almost anything while the ones at the bottom can be unreachable with some skills until you deal with the top enemies.
the difference between using stomach/uterus/etc for an attack (even though you can see the numbers change, i don't remember seeing why you should e.g. priotise gaining mana in the uterus vs. anything else)
Nobody says you should but you can for example store high potency semen in one of the orifices while dumping low-quality stuff into the other two and then use it when you deem necessary, for example against hard boss fights. If you just dump everything in the same orifice the semen will mix and the potency will go down.
there is no option to heal
you CAN heal both during AND between fights using food, potions, or some of the healing ingredients.
There's also a 'bookworm' difficulty when you get automatically healed after each fight.

has better performance
We are talking about text based porn game with few pictures inside. It does not need to be high performance. Feature ceiling is just irrelevant, what do you expect the game to do? Use GPU to educate neural net to write descriptions, based on how long do you spend reading it, while controlling camera to judge your facial reactions and hand movement speed? Run living world in background? What do you think you are playing, Slaves to Venus: Goddess of Cum Chapter III: Refuge of Lewd Elves?

fuck apple
B-but, muh linux! Nevermind that, we just use wine and have a bit of foreplay to setup everything.

Do you people really play porn games somewhere outside of controlled environment, aka home?

Thanks for clearing this up. At least when I was playing I definitely wasn't able to heal during fights. This might be me being a retard but I definitely couldn't use inventory, it just didn't do anything during fights. But if others never had this problem then it's not a serious issue.

You gotta equip a consumable item that heals you for a percentage of your hp onto your belt. Just click on them when you are in your inventory and choose the belt option, you can only have 3 active items on your belt at a given time. It took me a while to figure out as I assumed you could access your inventory in fights, but this isn't currently possible.

In regards to semen potency I think it'd be a nice QOL change to tell the player or an ability unlock to determine what tier of monster you are fighting or group that determines the approximate potency you are going to get.

I really have to wonder why other games, where you play a succubus-style char, aren't doing it like this game does. With other games there's always some weird cryptic abstraction that turns sex into useful energy. With this game instead it's plain stupid "semen == mana", and immersion-wise it feels way more natural, than some cryptic process of magic.

I mean. Actual mythological succubi were pretty much dream-demons that stole your jizz and through some, quote, cryptic process of magic, unquote, used it to impregnate sleeping women. (At least DNA tests didn't exist yet so you wouldn't get charged with paternity... :sneaky:)

So, yeah.

0.1.4 is out
this is a small update that continues the plot of the game after you leave the cave, introducing three new dryads
As always you can play the game online or download it (browser-based and .exe versions)

Dryad Quest Dev I especially liked your english and vocabulary in the game, although I found you using you/your/you're incorrectly on multiple occasions.

Also, why are you salting the save files, it was quite annoying to comb through the main .js just to add some stats :D
