I played this a fair bit back a couple of years ago, can honestly say that Wejit never grew on me & I cheerfully ditched him when that was made an option. Probably won't try it again simply because the whole being forced into a female body isn't my kink. Now if it's become an option to switch back to a male body since, then I might give it another try.

You get that option shortly after that point in the story. Now before you try, be aware that the male body is still rather twink-y, so set your expectations accordingly.

Yuppers. You can, indeed! Although Harmony's involvement is still kind of in development. Her first proper scene is forthcoming with the next patch, I believe.
There's a nice scene with her in the current update already but it's missing its followup the next morning to loop it back into the main path.

I deleted my post because I was certain I was wrong.
Then she approached me at the goblin camp.

What are the different ways to become the looter other then the convincing Kaiden to rehire Lel path?
When going into the tunnels leave Lel's gag in, send wejit ahead, and then abandon Lel when she gets attacked.

I think thats the only other way.

Just wanting to drop in a comment saying I really liked this game. I think probably the main reason is the diverse cast of characters that seem to bounce off each other pretty well despite this just being a porn game. I got into this wanting to just see some futa on trap scenes but this was good enough that I want to see what's different if you play a girl the whole time and if you can actually get pregnant.

I can't help but feel there are quite a few missed opportunities for hot scenes in this game, there's even times where I'd fully expect a sex scene to happen only to get hit with the old "Ha, gotcha!". For example when you go to the Underwell Inn, and the group basically tells Sparkle that giving a blowjob as a distraction would make everything so much easier to pull off. Hell, you even get to choose a response that agrees with the suggestion, implying that you're definitely going to get the chance to make it happen. But then you're just hit with a quick black screen, after which the group tells Sparkle the blowjob wasn't necessary after all, and the job's done.. What's the point in letting us pick a dialogue option then? Especially one that literally says "Ok, I'll do it"...

Don't get me wrong, I like this game. I've played through it several times over the past year and a half or so. I just don't understand why you'd have the dialogue move in a direction that implies the possibility of an upcoming sex scene, only to "nope out" at the end and leave us with nothing. Seems like a waste of a good set-up if you ask me. It's somewhat similar to the tavernkeep at the beginning, how Davie changed it so we now have the option to "service" him BEFORE getting the mushroom. I figured 'alright, so if I come back without a mushroom now, he'll ofcourse expect to be serviced "properly"'. But again, nothing... So what exactly was the point of it then, why change it to give us that option in the first place if it doesn't actually add anything?

The sex scenes we do get are plenty hot for the most part, and like I said, I do like this game(quite a bit, even). I also realize how much work it must be to create a game with this many branching paths and potential partners. I just think it would be better to not imply an upcoming sex scene through dialogue or even choices, when you're not actually planning to have an event in place. All that does is get the player's hopes up, only to have it end in disappointment.

It doesn't feel like lots more to me, I really enjoyed the build up when I tried that route out but felt a bit let down that really only Champ actually uses you. Choosing sex duties at the town gets way more free use vibes, but you can chose that on any path and its a one-off so far.
There was a LOT of rendering required for those scenes due to the number of outfits and available body-types. I intend to expand that into at least two more people having a go on Sparkle and I am chipping away at those additional renders a little at a time.


Just found this one. Where have you been hiding all my (adult) gaming life?

Good stuff so far. Love the humor as well as some of the sexy bits. Definitely will keep playing this game for awhile longer.
I came for the smut, but this game has a surprisingly compelling story and some good humor lol. the smut is good too.
Thanks!


Holyshit Twig's story is AMAZING!! This game is more awesome at every corner!

It does lack a few visuals here and there though. Odd ones. For instance the Roopah face fuck cumshot. How can there not be art for that?? And other important sex scene bits that would be 10x better with a few more arts. Odd choices.

All the non-sexy bits are perfect, and the sexy bits are almost perfect.
Thank you! Also yes I have a lot of notes on expanding various sexytime scenes.


Jeez i was avoiding this game for a long time thinking it will be a typical corruption nonsense whoreprot game based in a fantasy world with forced nonsense ...

I was so wrong and feel like a idiot now, this game is a absolute GEM!

After starting it up playing for a around 5 minutes i was captivated and loved the flow and especially the humour ( sure some might say it not really sophisticated or even childish ... but that's exactly my cup of tea !)

I actually think it's pretty much one if not the best game i stumbled opon regarding a VN on f95... (y)
Thanks! I appreciate the kind words!

There have been several requests for that looter path to be open to Sparkle earlier in the story. I'm working on making that happen.

Thank you, that's nice to hear!


Its really time for Sparkle to show up again and take us for another ride.

Davie!

Let her out!!!
Working on it :)

This is fair criticism. Both scenes you mentioned were not available initially but added in later updates. I tend to go back and add small things for people who are playing through the game again to find. Because of that, these little additions tend to be "teasers" instead of fully written and rendered scenes.

These small additions allow me to add in variable modifications as well, such as in the case of the new Underwell options where Sparkle's willingness/submissiveness/agreeability is adjusted depending on the choices made. These variables help me to gauge Sparkle's attitude later in the story and provide choices that entertain that attitude. For another example, a few previous changes earlier in the game (that could be thought of as "teasers") permit Sparkle to get/stay undressed and those choices open up exhibitionism content later in the game.

That said, I'm certainly not opposed to expanding these "teaser scenes" into full scenes. In fact, the newest "small" addition is a full branched path with its own transformation and sexytimes options (where Lel has Sparkle sent to the dungeon if she fails to smuggle the fish -- coming next update).

At any rate, I'm always open to suggestions and constructive criticism. If there is enough interest for expanding the scenes you mentioned (or any others) then I will do my best to accommodate the requests.

I might end up writting a review at some point, but until then I'll add my two cents.

I discovered this game a while back on another website (TFGames specifically) and picked it up when, if memory serves, the game went barely up to the boat part. Like, basically the beginning of that part of the story.
When I started using this site, I was thrilled to find this thread and, on top of it, that the game had really been expanded, both with more of the story and little bits in earlier parts.
I replayer it multiple times, tried multiple body types and partners... And I fell in love with pretty much all of them. I mean, aside from the two main guys. I'd punch those two idiots in the face anytime.

I was really glad to see how Roopah's relationship got expanded. Seeing that you can stir things into a less abusive relationship (or even turn the tables and use her) was a really nice surprise.
Panki is a god damn delight. And the lore behind her whole race thing seems really intriguing.
Lel be Lel. I don't think there's much else to say. Her quikiness adds a lot (I don't even know if that's a word, but for her, sure, it is).
Twig is... strange. She seems to have the attention span of a potato, but she's adorable in her own way, so why the fuck not.
And probably my biggest surprise was Harmony. I'm not really one for necro or necro-adjacent stuff, but fuck do I love that gal. I mean, I know she's more or less resurrected or something in that vein, but I wouldn't have guessed she'd grow on me that much and that fast. Good thing I know which bandit to target in the bar, because I can't deal with making her fuck the barman anymore.
Ho and I can't figure out if Ooyum is a phylosophical genius or a complete idiot, and I love it.

This game's shaping up to be one of hell of a gem in the female-protag VN genre. Can't wait to see where you'll take us.

Thanks for elaborating on your reasoning behind those "teasers". That does help me understand the purpose of some of these moments where I felt like a scene was incoming, but ended up not happening. The way you're setting it up helps in easing Sparkle into certain behaviours more gradually, as opposed to "Smack-bam, i'm a huge slut now!" barely 5 minutes into the story. I am happy to hear you're not opposed to expanding them though, so I'll be holding out hope for people to show some interest.

I definitely wouldn't mind seeing some of these moments get some more love and attention, like the Underwell Inn part as i mentioned. Things like actually allowing us to make that suggested blowjob happen, or maybe even have the option for Sparkle to offer herself up to the barkeeper (who totally speaks English, i don't care what anyone says..) instead of Harmony. It could be an optional choice if Sparkle accepted the 'Free-use' option, causing Panki or Lel to try and convince Sparkle to do it in order to get the information they need. I think a few of those scenes scattered around here and there could also help with the pacing of the game in general, giving us something hot to look at during times where the gap between sex scenes might be a bit longer. Not to mention remedy potential feelings of being "teased" out of a scene. (Just to clarify; I don't think the pacing is bad in any way, I just think a few more of those events at certain points could improve on it)

That being said, I do realize the scope of what you're trying to create is nothing to scoff at. As a player I'm usually looking at it from the perspective of a single path/branch and it's easy to think of all the scenes I'd love to see happen during the story. For you that often means creating 3 or more variations of the same scene, which i imagine could get kinda crazy if you were to implement every single idea that pops into your (or other people's) head. I can appreciate the amount of work and effort it takes to develop this game and I do think you're doing a great job overall, there aren't many games that make me want to replay it several times over and I'm on my 4th playthrough at the moment.

Now I'm gonna play some more Healslut, because I'm starting to ramble on too much... Oohoo! :BootyTime:

Let's be fair, the game hasn't had a new release going on two months and I'm not clearly marked as the developer of the game on this forum. If darklove didn't have the time to read through the thread and was making a hopeful wish that the game wouldn't be abandoned then I'm glad to inform them that I'm still very actively working on the story and have no intentions of stopping before a satisfying completion. :cool:
