Bothers me how the transformation made the MC ugly

You want to tell me he looked good before the transformation?^^

Anyway... we talk about a war where Fallout level monsters roam about than can kill a normal man with no effort at all. Ofc you have to go past human level both in strength and with a bit of help from a parasite to win that war. Good old skinny MC won't last 10 seconds against the big bois.

While I must agree that the penis length for the MC's new body doesn't look good (same for Markus) he is quite okayish looking now. A bit on Hulk level for sure but oh well.

I can't find the relationship menu, I started a new save from the prologue, but the menu icon is not on the screen.

If you're still in the prologue, the menu won't appear until after Ves is rescued and you enter free-roam.

the old save don't work

That is because the framework has gone through extensive revisions as indicated in the OP. Ensure you've deleted your persistent data (found in the options) and start a new save. You can skip the prologue which takes you to the moment after you save Ves.

Does anyone know how to skip mini games ? And what are the cheat codes?

You have two answers to this: support the devs on Patreon, or you can use the search function built into the f95 forums and type in "cheat".

Alternatively, you can just click on this link to a post I made listing out every cheat code currently available.

lostraven - You guys have added a ton to the game since I last played (v0.138). I feel that at this point it's safe to say - with the content currently available - that you guys are on a good path moving forward. It's great to see your team also modifying ren'py to suit the style of your game rather than trying to awkwardly make your mechanics work in an environment built for something simpler.

That being said, I'm curious about a few things that exist in the files that aren't fully implement. Everything hidden behind a spoiler tag for obvious reasons:

Again, fantastic work with what you guys have already done. I look forward to seeing how the story develops further in the future!

I'm gonna go full wall-of-text here: I loved the demo, and will be looking forward the next releases. It felt like a more polished version of Roundscape Adorevia, which despite its rough presentation set the bar for all western h-games that followed.

Thing is: with RA, the gameplay felt like an obstacle -- it was the amount of scenes and the "you never now how kinky this is going to be" that prompted you to continue. (Even if I needed to use a Dark Souls-style guide to get everything.) Parasite Black is not only quite fun to play, and with the level of depth for the combat system, but the care you put in the dialogue and world-building make it even more compelling to go through. Great achievement.

My feedback about things that could be expanded on: in general, I'm dying to see more Markus smut at this point. He is effectively the deuteragonist in terms of plot and gameplay, but with very limited access to "pay-off" scenes. There's a lot of tease involving him getting in on the action, especially with his naked sprites thrown in the player's face early on. The moment I saw that and remembered the "gay" content tag, I fully expected Markus/Protag along the way. It was a bit of a bummer to find out this isn't the case at this development stage and that the one scene of him is just a name swap (heck, I'd be content even if we could at least CG-swap him in certain scenes).

In general, the relationship with Markus holds loads of potential to both fans of swinging/sharing and gay/bi fans. Or just those who, like me, would rather see the RA (or Seeds of Chaos) approach as the standard: i.e., everyone should be a horny fucking animal, and, eventually. most of the possible combinations between characters should be explored according to what fits the player's kinks. The ability of the parasites to bend wills and the need for the guys to get more and more satisfaction (more extreme kinks?), a golden ticket for that.

On a broader note, the kinetic VN approach felt very right with the frequency of sex, of course starting with the more vanilla handjob, MF. During the main game, there were often points in which I 100% expected/wanted some scene to take place, or at least the build-up felt satisfactory enough for one. I'll give the few examples in which I was like "please let there be porn in here":

Down the line, eventually, sex and combinations with mother/sister, or swapping would be the biggest turn-on well (e.g., Markus' mother or own sister; this again due to them needing more "extreme" stimulation?). In general, I hope the family and Markus get the most exposure to steamy group sex, together with the protagonist.

Needless to say, this is an amazing first build. You should be proud of the work done.

Thank you very much for your kind words, walls of text with people actually engaging with the work are the best things :giggle:
While I can't spoil specific sex scenes planned or the story, we hope you continue to enjoy.

We're glad you're enjoying it, we're working hard to improve the game on every level, technical, visual etc.
We really are trying to push renpy and kinda what's expected of Adult games as best as we can.
