Others Keystroke [v3.03] [indyc]

[Darkenedlight]

The very first woman on the NTR lvl THe mall is someone' else's bride to be not the MC's which makes it a fucking harem lvl not NTR since NTR is about getting cucked not fucking other people partners that is harem game shit.

I haven't spent much time in the new areas yet (since I haven't gotten much time on this update yet), but the descriptions for each zone are like content flags you'll see in a game description on this very site. All that means is that you expect to find it in the game, not in every scene in the area. There's a feet description in the Military zone for example, but I want to say there's only 2, maybe 3 fights there where it's actually a thing.

The ToTS area for example can lead to your fiance (for people who played ToTS this makes sense since it's established in that game that she's your fiance) ending up with another guy fucking her. As I recall though, that's only an option in that one particular fight in that area, and not in every opponent in the area.

Simply put though, if NTR is all you're looking for, this game isn't it. I want to say one encounter in the ToTS zone, one in the Police zone, and if there's any in the Mall (haven't spent much time there) are the only ones that come to mind; meaning that a very large majority (easily over 90%) of the game doesn't include NTR. I might be forgetting some or haven't seen it yet, but it's not a big thing in this game.

Pretty sure this is one of the multi-part hacks, where by itself it doesn't do anything... but with another hack used in the right order it works. Could be wrong since I haven't seen that one lately and I need to do a lot of reruns to get more hacks again since the new version.

It's the second part of a two part hack. If someone wants to share the other part of it feel free (even though it's ultra rare) because I can't share them all haha. When you have both pieces you enter them individually back to back to activate the entire hack set.

It means as a cost of you beating the game the AI boss did that as a last second defense mechanism and she is no longer part of your game. You can either go on with life and forget she ever existed, or delete all of your girl preferences, or find a hack that restores them. (I honestly can't remember if I ever made that hack but I planned to, let me go check...)

EDIT: I did make it and it's in the game, it's a rare hack.

Congrats on winning though! (But at what cost?)

I believe the prerequisite hack is 'become' but not 100% sure.

 

[sbarabaus]

can i use hacks even before unlocking them?

You got it!

Yep, that's by design to make it more of a social experience. It hasn't quite played out the way I imagined but it also helps more get carried over from version to version. They all get re-named about once a year though.

Time to give my thoughts on this one, I guess

I first downloaded Keystroke about a year ago because the premise of a porn game that requires me to type made me laugh

And now I open it at least once a week, because I find it very fun

I do very much enjoy the balancing act of letting myself lose some files to see something enjoyable and still typing to try and beat the game, which I think I've only successfully done once. I am easily tempted.

I like the hack system, especially since you can use them without having to unlock them first, mainly because every time I download an updated version of the game it's wiped out my hack collection, but that problem has been easily minimized by a notepad and reading this thread

I do very much enjoy the addition of the casual mode, the timer used to feel pretty rough and I remember in the early days a bunch of people here discussed actually delaying the timer until it almost ran out to avoid it shortening, but that made runs to levels 4 and 5 painfully slow, especially if you were trying to avoid being corrupted so you had nothing nice to look at while you waited

Overall, I'd say this has been a surprisingly fun experience, and I'd like to say thank you, Indyc, for taking the time to make both this and ToTS, I've have spent many many hours of the past year just replaying these for the simple fun they provide

Also, could we potentially get a hint for what zones might be added next/expanded? I know you just dropped a large update and I've been enjoying it, but the variety is one of my favorite things here, and some of these tags are still only listed for one level

tutorial seemed to work ok but none of the actual levels images are showing up. Not sure how it's supposed to work but it seems like a cool concept. Oh well.

Thank you ever so much for your thoughts and I'm so glad that you enjoyed it so much!

As far as hints on upcoming zones, the vast majority of effort will be in expanding currently existing zones. The reason for this is because every zone I add "waters down" the preference system. Many have already thought the impact of it is rather low so a priority for me is building up the pool in each zone. (I've slowly done this but with a new zone break it will speed up)

That sounds like something went quite wrong -it's not supposed to be like that at all. I would try to download from a different mirror and see if the same issue happens.

Definitely noticed the renaming, since I swear each version I play the heal by quarter file damage is different
Nothing wrong with that, just amusing and makes the run more interesting since I never remember to make a key to move the save over so I'm starting over fresh each time.

 

[darkwer34]

would it be possilbe to add into a existing zone for femdom ?

Yeah it's possible. Believe it or not I was expecting to make a dungeon act for the later levels since the Keystroke idea came about. However, it has never won the polls or even been close. Right now my focus is on adding to existing zones but I still think such a zone would fit great!

 

[Mello8888]

The last level is unforgiving lol

There's a couple of ways to beat it honestly. But it's mostly about knowing the right stuff at the right time. And playing on casual can fix at least part of it if you are having timer troubles.

how are we supposed to do the fiance boss level? firing at her removes some smoke, but then more just gets added later, and doing nothing just gets her mad. it would be nice if it was more clear on what to do

If you let me know which one and what happened I'm always happy to make adjustments. I didn't intend for it to be that brutal.

It sounds like you are speaking of her military zone variant (she has 3). I went back to add a bit more dialog because I can see how the intention in the dialog could be missed when hitting at certain times. (Don't have the next patch up yet though)

Basically she wants you to free her from the program by attacking but in doing so you get to see less of her. She is gets upset when you "waste time" to look at her instead of attacking the program that's imprisoning her.

In other news, boy is it incredibly deflating to spend 6 months every single day on the update to be met with 3 reviews with an average of 1.3 stars. On one hand I have the confidence to know that I'm still proud of what I made and that the game isn't for everyone. But on the other hand, stuff like this GREATLY limits how many others are willing to give it a shot. Not to mention, the complaint of having to type to progress the photos isn't even true.

Any ideas of how to communicate this better? Any advice in general?

In the meantime I'll just dust myself off and push on but it hurts, especially considering this is my living now.

Just wanted to say, I think the game is great! Both this and TotS. It's very hard to find good hypno content, and both games really help scratch some itches. I've even thought about joining your Patreon in hopes of getting some custom content added, but I gotta wait till I get some more disposable income. So, your work is indeed greatly appreciated.

 

[sbarabaus]

while i think the game is very fun, maybe it would work better if you also got rewards by defeating enemies instead of just getting them by losing
