I actually figured it out, it's just that some of the insects don't actually have incubation/birth events/scenes. I was asking why the mosquito's eggs does not appear and I got my answer while looking at the available scenes.
Is that definitely it? Pretty sure that even though not every creature has birth scenes you would just get the regular birth scene with no CGI once the progress reaches 100%. At least on v1.30, that is.

Oh I see, forgot to mention that as well. I've added some details on the post at Itch. In summary, incubation only works for Wharf Roaches, Egg Flies, Giant Slugs and Egg Bees, as indicated on the update 1.30 dev notes :).

This is not the case. We've limited the incubation mechanics only to critters with birth scenes. At the moment those are the ones mentioned above. Those had already been indicated on the dev notes for version 1.30.

Seems like I've been mistaken then, sorry. But if that's the case, why won't any eggs stay after a scene? I just made a new save to quickly surrender to some wharf roaches without the P worms, and the eggs still disappear after sleeping and the egg count doesn't change at all.

That is yet another constraint, defeat scenes don't count, you have to go trough Consent, Forced or Temptation scenes. Defeat scenes end in a birth scene, so it is implied that the incubation progressed during the scene itself :).

This is indicated as well on the guide I've shared above, although the wording on the scene names is a bit different to avoid attention.

EDIT: Perhaps we should move some of this information to some sort of in-game guide to facilitate access. It is also becoming a bit difficult for me to handle all this details spread on several posts and places.

That makes sense. I just went back onto the save with the P worms and it seems like I've missed a consent scene with the wharf roaches (must've mistaken it for another scene ;-;) and the P worms progressed as they should after the scene. Thanks for clearing that up ^w^


P.S: I guess the only issue left is the fact that defeat scenes leave eggs in the xray before sleeping (assuming there's no P worms inside), while the eggs aren't actually there at all and disappear the next day. Just a small inconsistency issue >.<

When infected with Parasite Worms, they will eat any eggs inside, increasing incubation progress, that is why you don't see the eggs, we though it would be an interesting detail :).

Regarding the x-ray case, if you have Parasite Worms, they will eat the eggs and as such, they will not appear.
It might be cool in a future update to have a picture that shows when worms exist, and injection happened, rather than womb being packed with eggs, it is more... 'sparsely populated' with eggs, and the worms. It would be shown that day after any eggs injected. Then at the next morning, the eggs have been 'cleared out'.

There are some artists who are very good at drawing close to other's style, usually they are more mature and cost more though from this skill. I can't remember which but I remember one game using this route wen their OG artist had left and the devs couldn't just get someone to redraw everything.

It seems we missed that one case :(, I was sure we had them all covered :ROFLMAO:.

Android version deleted all my saves when I updated to v1.35 :(
Sorry to hear your saves were deleted :(, however it is not related to the game since it does not have functionality to delete save files.

One thing that can happen is when you uninstall or install over an Android app, you have to tick the box to "Keep Game Data". If you don't, Android will delete your settings and save files when uninstalling the game. I don't know if that was the case with you but it happened with me a few times during testing sessions.

If I understood your suggestion, you mean for a different amount of eggs, lesser, to appear when Parasite Worms are inside?

Regarding the artists, we are in contact with some that can approximate the art style, but we have to be careful with the costs, that is mostly where the issues lie.

I did press "Keep Game Data" and it always worked when updating the previous Android versions but this time (1.30 to 1.35) it deleted the saves even after ticking the box. I don't know why

Is there any way to remove the auto translate? Please let me play it in english. Thanks for the effort, but I already hate it when google auto translate stuff when I don't want it. Not to mention that these systems unfortunely don't separate between european portuguese and brazilian portuguese.


Regarding the locale change, it is based on probability, more than anything else. We assumed that more often than not, if your OS is in a certain locale, then it is expected that you'd want it on that language, maybe we assumed wrong. Many people that play the game are not familiar with the English language and that is why that feature exists, however, perhaps, we need to fine-tune it so it only changes to the locale on the specific country as well, because we use the general locale code, and not the country specifier, since for Spanish, Portuguese and Chinese it does not make much difference as the different countries can still read the most of it, or so I was told :).
Don't get me wrong, I understand it was in good faith, but for people who don't need to deal with auto translations daily you guys don't understand how annoying and frustrating auto-translations are. I even needed to put extensions on the browser because I couldn't use youtube in peace, specially when channels add those horrible AI voices.

Again, I understand you guys simply wanted to to provide a good feature, but believe, it is extremely frustrating. Not to mention that even usual brazilian portuguese content is starting to override european portuguese on the internet as well. Even if it is understandable, culturally is different, along with some specific expressions that simply don't work. And the system don't even differentiate between both versions, besides of the actual auto translations.

Still, thanks for your answer.

The Problem was reported and Iam pretty sure Eroism is working on a solution as we speak.

Oh then I don't know what happened. I'll check on the engine's forum if there was any report of a bug regarding game data delete on install :).

Can you provide the full game save file?
Sorry I do not keep saves since we have "Developer Powers" :ROFLMAO:, I'm sure someone else would be able to provide you with a save file.

Believe me, I know, I've changed the locale of all my systems to English for software to not assume other languages, including localized translations from other countries that speak the "same" language :LOL:. On the next version we will provide a prompt to choose the language instead of guessing :).

Also, you can already change the language in the settings, and then save and it will stay saved forever until you change again, however it was broken on the first upload due to a mistake on my part. It is fixed on Itch.io. If you download there you can freely change the language. I'm not home and can't yet re-upload here unfortunately.
