Unity Love Among Monsters [v0.0.6] [Ashen]

[Akalah]

The first Vanya scene seems to include her torso inverting near the point of climax. I assume that's an error.

The Yuni scene looked very strange, my guess would be that the player model is supposed to be animated in that scene but it just stood as still as a statue. On the positive side, I like the unconventional body used for her.

It would be quite nice to be able to skip to the next animation loop. Also, will Saya be 'interactable' or is she just there as a guide?

And here's something similar to my answer above: Yuni and her scene were done quite quickly and immediately after the game was released.
There are indeed moments when the player's animations do not play even though they are in the game. It's not that I deliberately left him without animations because I forgot xd. Sometimes they play, sometimes they don't, even though the game code is still the same.
I haven't had any such problems reported in the newer animations, but the character skeletons and other elements are also very different from the old ones.
This is one of the reasons why Eli's erotic scene did not come out right away, just as Centaur did not get his right away. It simply does not make sense for me to rush these types of things, especially with my level of animation or lack thereof.

But I'm glad you commented on the snowman. Surprisingly, I always expected to be ridiculed for this type of character, but it's the most popular character among fans. I'm sure it could have been done better, although I won't hide the fact that at the time I was making it, it was even a challenge to add a snowman to a hentai game xd without it turning out like a total cartoon parody.

Omitting the animation loop due to how my scene system is built may be a little more difficult, and by that I mean that it is of course feasible, but new problems will probably arise, and to be more precise, it will require more work/time and dividing it into more sequences.


I can do it if you want me to, no problem. I'll see how much time it will take me in future animations and how well I can do it so that there are no new problems.
If it turns out that it will take more time, they will be released as before and, after some time, they will be modified to allow jumping on their elements.

I keep talking about time only because it has to be spent on something, and the time I spend on this will be taken away from something else, but I totally understand that it can be an important element and it would be nice to have it in the game, so I'll work on it and see how it turns out.

I'll probably work on it while working on the centaur scenes.

And as for Saya, there won't be any sex in her fox form because they'll remove me from the sites where I'm trying to raise funds for the game's development. Instead, I will paste my thoughts on the subject from a post dedicated to her.

,,People wonder if this is her true form, if she's a fox girl, if she'll have a story at all, or if she's just a funny toy from the guide.
Saya is a character you can either marry and live a peaceful life with, or murder in cold blood. I wanted her to be taken seriously"
I've already been asked about erotic scenes for her in her current form. Unfortunately, there won't be any, but Saya is still a monster girl and she will have scenes.

just seen that glich from 2nd screenshot, 0.0.6F1 ver. only 2nd. on 0.0.4 ver all good.
upd. checked (and recorded), now it happens all time.

 

[Akalah]

I really want a skip or progress to next pose or something because sometimes I just want to move on after being stuck on a pose for a while, especially for scenes that don't do anything for me like the footjob scene (Why is it so long?! I feel like I've been here FOREVER)

As I wrote above, I think it would actually be good to be able to jump between scenes, even though I wanted them to have their own pace and be more like elements of the story.
I'll think about it, work on it, and see what can be done in the future.

If it's about skipping scenes entirely, it will take less time, and I don't see a problem with adding such a feature to the game, even though it was planned and mentioned that I would introduce something like this in the future in case someone stumbled upon a fetish/scene that did not suit them.

The scene with Eli is indeed longer; it was done at the request of fans, even though the dialogues are mainly there to pause at a given loop, and it was introduced anyway, and the scenes were lengthened because there was more than one discussion about whether the game would be better without dialogues during the scenes, and replacing the scenes with ones with limited camera, animation, but animated camera, etc.
Like a typical erotic animation not game like interactive elements, and you didn't have to click anything during it, although I am also considering options for left-handed people xd

The fact is that these scenes don't come out very well for me yet, and this also involves timing, etc.
As you mentioned, the ability to skip certain elements of the scenes would solve this problem for now.
So I'll work on that.

I don't know why but I feel a giant impulse to fire an arrow at that green haired girl

just seen that glich from 2nd screenshot, 0.0.6F1 ver. only 2nd. on 0.0.4 ver all good.

And that's the interesting thing about the scene with Vanya – it hasn't been touched since almost the first updates to the game. I can understand the first screenshot, because I modified the character's body, etc., so something could have been wrong there.
But Vanya wasn't touched, and suddenly there was a problem with her animation, which is even more interesting because the game has two models, and Vanya's new animations, such as those at the grave, etc., are on a separate model, and this scene is on the old one, so this bug could probably also have been present in version 0.0.4, but maybe it was just luck that it didn't happen.

I often get reports of these problems, and when someone wants to reproduce them to show them better, suddenly it's not possible and everything works fine, so it's hard to find what's wrong, but of course that's my lack of skill, I can't look at such screenshots because they'll haunt me in my dreams, but it is what it is.
I'm glad these problems are reported to me so I can eliminate them, because no one is more pissed off about these problems than me.
There's nothing worse than the moment of me enjoying an new update ruined by the fact that players aren't enjoying it because the game works like shit.

 

[Akalah]

Because she has a very large round target in the middle of her head that the arrow could easily pierce.
This is one of the reasons why the player cannot yet run around the village with a bow and why Eli, as she teaches us, stands behind our field of fire.

 

[Memime]

I am a little stumped with how to progress. I am on the day Eli appears, spoke to everyone, read the book, no new characters after Eli so far?

I hope the screenshots help I know that sometimes you can accidentally skip a dialogue that is important to the story, so a quest log will be added in the future to make things easier.

If anything is unclear or you would like to know more, feel free to ask.

thats a totaly normal for games in dev state, so it's just ok for me i can't help to trace this bug due my lack of skills with unity, but maybe some info could help instead? recorded this, but idk where to upload

 

[Memime]

Thank you. I think I am just a bit past those screenshots, but can't sleep.

Don't worry too much, it's my problem to fix it now , this particular bug in the gameplay doesn't really point me to the problem, I need to see what's going on behind the scenes, so more in the game engine.

Most often, all these errors are caused by differences in hardware and how the game runs. For example, these problems were usually solved when someone changed the graphics settings to lower or even higher, because even a microlag could cause the game to skip an important fragment. There would be no problems such as breaks between fragments, i.e., the darkened screen would last like for example 10 seconds longer, and Unity would calmly set everything up and the code would make sure that everything was working by checking it, but I know that these breaks and staring at a black screen can be tiring, so I'm trying to find a middle ground between doing it right and doing it quickly.
Normally, games don't have such problems, but I'm still learning, so unfortunately problems will arise, although I'm doing my best to fix them.

I hope there won't be any such problems in the scene with Eli, only in those with Vanya and Yuni, then I'll sleep more peacefully knowing that things have taken a turn for the better.
It's just a shame that I know that a scene like the one with Vanya can scare players away and encourage them to abandon the game, but despite this, I've received information more than once that fans don't want me to mess around with these old scenes now and add new content, which is understandable to me because everyone is waiting for their favorite monster girlfriend.

 

[Akalah]

Thank you. I think I am just a bit past those screenshots, but can't sleep.

So now that Vanya has shown you the three symbols, they have been unlocked in the book.


After agreeing to Saya's idea, talk to Vanya, and to the left of Vanya is a table where we will craft the aforementioned grave, and then the plot should be clearer later.

 

[Memime]

I selected "Not such a bad idea" with Vanya, but there are no tables near by. I can also confirm I have gone through all the dialog in the screenshots as well, and exhausted all talking options. But still no table in site, or in any house that I can interact with.

Are they not in your game?

 

[Wolvez]

so how do I get the scenes with Yasha? all I get when talking to her is tell me something about yourself

Unfortunately, Yasha doesn't have any erotic scenes yet, as she has only just been introduced to the game, and of course it would be possible to introduce her together with the scenes, although this would delay her entry into the game.
I try to add something interesting and new with each update, and I preferred to add her now rather than wait 2 or 3 updates to add nothing but bug fixes and then everything at once.

Vanya was a character who came out right away with scenes, and compared to Eli's scene, it's tragic, and believe me, I would also prefer Yasha to have scenes right now.

Nice to hear about the skipping, it's a very nice quality of life feature, especially for the minutes long scenes in this game.

Too bad about Saya, I do get it though. I assume the orange fox in the preview images is her fox-girl form? (technically you could go the route of an 'un-official mod' *wink, wink*, but I don't know if that would be worth the effort)

You see, there are topics that are restricted by the laws of my country of origin, as well as by websites such as Patreon, Itch, etc. Even Discord's policy is not what it used to be, and discussing certain topics is risky.
There are, of course, things that I would not allow myself to do on moral grounds, but we are not talking about that here because it is irrelevant what I like. There will be many things in the game that I do not like, but I will add them anyway to make it more interesting and diverse.

It doesn't always have to be this way, there are quite a few ways to solve these types of problems, but certainly not now, except maybe the modding you mentioned, although for now I would prefer to be allowed to run this game my way before modding begins, which I do not rule out in the future, because we live in times where sometimes you even have to explain yourself, not for your own actions, but for the actions of others around your work, even though the matter is obvious to all of us, it is not obvious to large companies, as recent actions around NSFW have shown.

And I just want to make a cool game, develop and create better and better content, surprise people, so that someone grabs their head and says, “lol, I wouldn't have thought of that,” “this guy has an awesome idea.” and I know, I believe there will be such moments, I'm working on it

So when I say that I won't add such content, it doesn't mean that fans of such content will never see it, the country can be changed, modding the game can be made easier for fans, someone can make fan animations, or I can even give someone the models so that they can add what I can't in the animations, the game already has plans and content that I can't add, but it will appear when game it's finished, for now, however, I'm just getting started because, among other similar games, mine is barely a toddler, and since I'm making it myself, I need a little time.

It's not a small problem, balancing around it so as not to get banned, and not to end up as a game that added a cyclops, an elf, a slime, a vampire, possibly a centaur, a lamia, a zombie, but without scenes because of fear to be banned, and to finish work on the game because we ran out of ideas xd
And I know I'm saying this while laughing at my own game, because maybe apart from the snowman there aren't any more unique characters, but they are in the process of being created, and since yesterday I'm sure that another one is quite interesting, maybe not the next one, but the one after that.

Anyway, creating the elf gave me time to create a centaur despite my skills, so besides the fact that fans also like these human characters, they give me time for more difficult characters.

As for Saya, I gave more information in a post on Patreon, which is for everyone. I tend to avoid posting links and talking about it so as not to annoy people that I'm raising funds for my “shitty game.”

But in short, the orange fox is the old Saya, and those screenshots are out of date.

And now she looks like that

There are still textures to improve. In the post, I explained why this change was made, why the old one was so poorly done, etc. and this white one is now Saya's fox form

Sorry, bro, for the fucking spam, as always on my part, I just woke up so my energy is back, the game is what it is and we can all see that, so there's not much interest in it, so if someone asks about something, they get a book to read, that's just how I am, you can always just ignore me.
It would be better to respond to everyone with one sentence, then there would be more questions and the thread would be bumped, but I'd rather just make the game than figure out how to promote it. If it's good enough, people will want to talk about it and share that game, and that's it.

Skipping erotic scenes entirely will most likely appear in the next update if everything goes well, because with every update I always add something from the fans.

And that's about it, the update has been released, and even though I have to get started on the erotic scenes for Yasha, I'm planning on another character that's quite difficult in terms of animation and interesting to create, so I'm going back to work.

Well, so far it's not enough (it feels like the game is being played in 10 minutes now).
I saw a centaur (I was upset that there were no scenes with her and that she had just come out).

It might be a bit boring at the moment.

But I'm waiting for more updates.
