This game just kinda pisses me off.

Purely mechanically, it acts like it's really going to be gameplay heavy with the heat/stamina mechanics but I didn't really see strategic placements of enemies (and in fact more seemingly random enemies are placed as the difficulty gets harder), and there's no real status effects or ailments or anything to really change up enemies so most all of them just run up to you and grab you in melee or in a small area. Okay, whatever, so then it's a button spamming sort of beat em up game? Fucking no because any time you find any sort of rhythm in this game it suddenly doesn't work. If you spam light attacks, you run out of stamina. Spam heavy, run out of heat. Too many attacks, now the enemy is intangible for some reason. EVENTUALLY I got a pattern down that involved constantly mixing in the heat/stamina recharge button, but it's not fun, and is perplexing when you're just starting.

Additionally, the stages are fucked. The lab is by far the most enemy dense hardest navigate area and then every area after that is way more horizontal or have way less enemies/more puzzles.

Controversially, I do not think having so many animations around every weak enemy enriches the gameplay side at all. The fat bitch has FIVE scenes and has two of the easiest to avoid attacks in the whole game, and a couple of those scenes are elaborate.

But fine, alright, whatever. It's not megaman and you're just supposed to go around and lose to every enemy for each character, I expected too much, I get it. But then why the fuck isn't there a gallery, why is there no way to skip forward and backwards in these long ass scenes. Even if you don't want to program a gallery surely you can create a room where there's every enemy in the game, except you probably can't because it's probably poorly coded or some shit. I don't know.

This was listed as abandoned last I saw it. Resurrected for real? New build, new content?

Being honest with what I know about it, this game was good at the beginning but, from halfway through production until now it's only going in decline and it's abandoned, they only keep it active to add horrible or boring content and recently they added new content but it's almost insignificant except that it adds new things, the animations are not very wow as expected and with everything that was seen before it was published and the expectations. "in short" the game has practically been dead for years but they make it up to make it seem like it isn't. It's like going to the casino and playing the slots you lose more than it seems but that's what it was designed for.

To put it simply, games on here get the abandoned tag if they are officially abandoned, or if there's no content/update for a long amount of time. In this case, it was the latter.

Build 22 was released in early October 2024. Build 23 (most recent) was released in late July 2025. Build 22 was more about "focusing on the Daycare", and Build 23 focused on the DD boss fight. A few things added here and there, but nothing too exciting. Kinda lame considering it took roughly 9 months for that update

I will say this though: I would happily see that ABDL area just get cut off entirely from the main game and become its own thing at this point. I won't kinkshame, of course, but I will absolutely point out that very few people are into that kind of stuff. So for it to occupy a whole bloody third of a game, one which ostensibly isn't focussed on that type of kink... That is just wrong on a "logistical" level. :FacePalm:

My two cents, as someone developing games in the same space:
  • Beyond making the game more palatable to those not into the kink, what purpose does splitting the zone from the base game serve? If anything, wouldn't that slow development even more, since now there are two builds that require upkeep? The area is entirely optional already and the Patreon build doesn't have it at all.
  • ABDL is one of those kinks where few people are into it and even fewer people make stuff catering to it. DB is known for ABDL stuff, and has been for years. Their core supporter base is probably people who are into it, and who are paying well for them to add more stuff of a similar nature. I wouldn't be surprised if this means their primary focus is on adding more niche stuff that the average person isn't going to be into, but garners more support.
  • The focus on niche content and the discontent that brings is compounded by a truly abysmal update schedule. I don't think people would be complaining as much if the niche content was added, along with some less niche content, at more regular intervals. I totally get how frustrating it is to wait literally half a year, only for an update with like 2 incredibly niche scenes to come out.

Tl;dr: ABDL is fine but niche, update schedule is bad, niche content makes bad update schedule feel even worse.

...Yeah, you are absolutely right. See, for a moment there I actually forgot that we were talking about one of the laziest, most aggressively inept and workshy cheaters of devs there have ever been. So that is entirely my fault for forgetting just how utterly abysmal this particular dev is at keeping up an even remotely acceptable level of workflow. :FacePalm:

I wish to point out one simple fact. A fact that you yourself have outed yourself on in such a simple way. The patreon build still has the daycare, the teleporter just needs to be modifed in a .win file editor, and you can enter it because the daycare only has two methods stopping entry, and that's the door just pointing you back to the hub world until you change the location it points to, and the invisible wall THAT YOU CAN PARKOR OVER legit you don't even need to modify the invisible wall height if you know how to do the jump mechanics properly.

jo that dragon boss in the arcade game is kinda hard anybody have a tip ?

play as Sam and spam attack him. That's it. She can just attack and kill him quick.
As Whispy, knock out sam any time she's up. Walk up to boss and dash past when he attacks then attack him from behind (also just dash past the trap carriage when it comes at you). Repeat until win.
