Others Kinky Dungeon [v5.2.2b] [Ada18980]

[qwsaq]

I was probably not clear enough.
Unless you insist on doing altar quests and side areas early, there's literally no danger in default dungeon's first floors on default settings.
Enemies are either too slow or too predictable.
Even orb breaking is not even remotely as punishing as it would be once you'll hit... I believe, it's -10% rep with corresponding Goddess when Living %stuff% collars start appearing from orb breaking, right?
Unless player is obliviously trying to make his own life harder, it's generally possible to reach first boss generally unscathed by just being reasonable. Even traps are so forgiving so one might say these exist just to annoy the player.
In late game 1 (one) animated yoke from some very lucky trap can make you entertained for hours of real-world time, thanks to how yokes work... And overall enemy density (+ variety of immunities some enemies would have by that time) makes it significantly harder to be reasonably cautious in less dramatic cases...
...in other words, steepness and direction of difficulty curve depends on if you'd like to take risks until you get "decorated", escape then sell all that bling... or a more level-headed approach.
Which is absolutely alright! I'm genuinely happy that both hardcore and softcore (strategy-wise, not porn-wise) players can enjoy this game equally well! It's a rare sight nowadays.

I'm a bit of a completionist. So I clear every floor of all enemies, open every chest, and do every quest. So yeah, it might be a playstyle issue.
Playing that way makes the first few floors a trial but you power-spike very early on.

but you power-spike very early on.

*sigh*
How so? Did something changed that drastically between this theme's latest version and current official release?
The only power spike you can expect early on is some enchanted knife/sword/anything-else. Which - jokes aside - is a goddamn gamechanger since it cuts up to Mithril and does so decently even with some negative player traits rolled. AND doubles as excellent sidearm.
Few dozens of "Good Gal" cookies from chests and maybe few restraints with mismatching magical bonuses from quests is all I get.
Of course, if you're Chosen One - you can get 2-4 %BondageResist items early on in this manner. Which OF COURSE will turn first half of the game into walk in the park. Well, that's high risk - high potential reward!
Anything else still needs either toned down difficulty or a very good innate player's luck.

How so?

I was mostly giving you the benefit of the doubt. But as you mentioned, enchanted weapons help a lot. The extra gold you collect doesn't hurt either. And mana potions early on are huge. Then there's scrolls of slight which are basically a "get out of jail free card."
The real spike comes from spell points, as is expected. For example: the latex tree has a spell which lets you conjure nearly infinite slimes as long as you have the mana for it. But its more basic spells are quite weak so you're mostly going melee for the first few floors. Once you get there, though, the rest of the game is trivialized.

Edit: This is kinda a side note and definitely not "early game," but it's worth mentioning that getting goddess favor to 100% grants you an ultimate weapon of sorts. Restoration gives you a bow that makes enemies fight for you. It even works on bosses!

Why might the "play with yourself" command not work? DP=90+%, but it keeps telling me "you're not feeling it..."

 

[DrinkFromTheCup]

If I understood it correctly, there are two almost overlapping DP gauges in the UI:
- one for arousal (top, usual progress bar w/ no heart)
- another for progress towards orgasm (bottom, w/ heart)
"Laying on hands on oneself" needs arousal gauge at... I believe, 15% and above? Didn't found any perks or other modifiers which might prevent you from doing it. Except selecting "Distraction" over "Arousal" option prior to game start, of course, with "Distraction" no self-serving is allowed, obviously.

Don’t know if you guys know this, but on their Discord, you can download mods. There’s stuff like a save and load slot function where you can save anywhere and load anywhere (recommend it's great). Additionally, you don’t have to copy a 1000 word save code. There are also new enemies and weapons.

Mhm. Download few custom items, a handful of hairstyles. And be insulted by its moderation team free of charge.
Deal of the year.
Should've backed Ero Dungeons instead - at least their persons-in-power are professionals at what they're doing.

Doubling up on this. The Stable versions (from Itch.io, browser or online, doesnt matter) are actually better for the mods. Patreon versions are unstable, used for testing and prone to changes, so mods can behave weirdly on it.
