Unity Pleasure Echo: Erase [v0.33] [EgoPlaga]

[Plaga13]

The NTR and the preview images attracted me here, but reading the comments made me a little worried.

Just a few questions:

1. The NTR depends solely on our bad decisions here? In other words, it only happens if I intentionally sabotage my own path? I don't like that where the NTR is used only as a punishment. HARD PASS.

2. Our LI only cheating in this game with her ex? Because it's boring, and in this case it's more about just she going back to her previous (original) relationship, which doesn't really make the NTR too interesting.

3. The other thing I read on this thread was the three and 4some NTR. It can be thrilling if it's well written, but in many games this usually turns into an emotionless swinging fuckfest where the necessary factors for NTR like jealousy, excitement, betrayal are completely forgotten from the story.

Thanks for the answers in advance, if there will be.

Hello!

1. I’m designing the game so that choices aren’t strictly "bad" or "good"—they’re just different paths. I get what you’re saying: NTR shouldn’t only stem from obvious or deliberate decisions, as that would feel more like cuckold than true NTR. Some NTR moments will arise from subtle, non-obvious choices instead. That’s why I’ve added an NTR disable option—so players who want to avoid it can enjoy the game without ever encountering it.
2. In this game, the main character will have multiple love interests! Chapter 1 includes just one NTR scene, but future updates will introduce more, featuring different characters and scenarios.
3. There’s no that scene yet—that’ll come later. Some scenes may vary depending on whether the NTR function is enabled or disabled. I hear you and will work to craft the right atmosphere. If you’re a fan of NTR, you might know manga like Chitose or Karami Zakari—they’re my favorites. My game won’t copy their plots, I’m aiming to capture a similar emotional intensity. This isn’t a full-on NTR game; I’m creating plenty of content without NTR as well. I think overloading it with NTR—like having it in every other scene—would dilute NTR impact. My goal is to offer something for everyone, no matter their preferences.

I’d love for you to give the game a try and see what you think!

Very cool game!

Pros:
- Cute girls
- Fun short story
- I always love sandox/open world
- Cute pixel art
- Game looks very unique

Cons:
- MOVEMENT: it is very frustrating losing movespeed when you hit objects/walls because I get 'stuck' in every single corner, not to mention doors...
- I didn't save right before what seems like a major decision, so I missed out on content (who to go to the party with) and don't wanna play from day 1 before more updates...
- Girls love the protagonist from the moment they meet him. I think slower development would have been better.
- We teleport to classroom door when entering college
- Who was the person going through the principals stuff on day 1?
- Feels too zoomed in, especially when teaching Kyle's sister, you either look at her face or at the rest of the picture

- MOVEMENT: it is very frustrating losing movespeed when you hit objects/walls because I get 'stuck' in every single corner, not to mention doors...

Yes, I will improve movement and make doorways and narrow spaces wider later.

- I didn't save right before what seems like a major decision, so I missed out on content (who to go to the party with) and don't wanna play from day 1 before more updates...

I'll make it so there's more than one autosave

Girls love the protagonist from the moment they meet him. I think slower development would have been better.

I started making the next big update which will expand and deepen the first chapter. I will add more side events and scenes, and also rewrite some dialogues. It may seem so because I missed some scenes (for example, according to the logic of the story, Kris stays with Kyle and Clare to fix the bed and there they get to know each other better, I will add this scene)

- We teleport to classroom door when entering college

Yes, according to the idea, when teleporting to the College, the hero spends the school day there and appears after lessons near the classroom. I will probably add some kind of notification like "after lessons". In addition, this is done so that the main character immediately spawns near his group, so as not to search each time in which class the necessary characters are currently located

- Feels too zoomed in, especially when teaching Kyle's sister, you either look at her face or at the rest of the picture

Well, it kind of conveys that the main character is close and staring at her.

I'm confused at the party, Kate ask me to dance with her, but when I start it, I see her in a dance pose, score: 0 and few flashy stars and then nothing. Don't even know what to do...

Might it be a bug, when i check the quest the first part seems not completed although i done it, act as Kate's boyfriend.

Thanks for helping me catch the bug!
Edit! - Use enter to skip dialogs, this happened because I changed the layer of this mini game and it covered the dialog layer

Hello, just wondering if there was any luck figuring out what's causing the always moving to the left bug.
From what I was testing the game detects no matter what I do and sadly updating to 0.32 did not help.
All I can tell you is that currently I have no additional joystick or other software installed that could be giving said input.
I have tried disconnecting all devices even intentionally moved character to middle of the map and disconnected keyboard and game still detects movement so I can only assume it's an issue on Unity Engines side mostly speculating because Unity Engine games are the only ones that have said issues for me past and present.
Another thing I have attempted is about 4 different types of keyboards in case it could be a keyboard including cable/bluetooth/wireless dongle and neither of those things helped and I assume will not help since disconnecting everything still detects the input.

Only issue for said bug I can think of that helped in the past is reinstalling Windows, however, that isn't really a long term solution as that bug just randomly returns for no apperent reason.

Mind you this issue only happens in some Unity games unsure what they have in common aside from being made by Indies and or possibly that they may have possibly followed the same youtuber but who knows

Dev assuming you followed youtube tutorials well aside from possibly them doing some uhhhh not very reliable tutorials there's also a possibility while uncertain that might help, in case you're using Input Manager, which is built into Unity try checking into Input System which from what I'm aware is a little bit more complicated but possibly more up to date and unsure why Unity didn't just replace it as it has to be installed as a package.

Then again I'm not a Unity dev so I can only write from observation.

Hi! Can you contact me on discord? I'll send you a couple of versions of the game where I'll make different settings and you'll try it, maybe some of them will solve your problem?

Thanks for your explenation, it really helped and damn thanks for that crazy cliffhanger ending, looking forward to next updates. Was sceptic at first, but overall it a really nice vn and love a bit crime and mystery too.

The AI art is okay, but the AI writing is just awful. The conversations with Clare are borderline incomprehensible.

It not incomprehensible, Clare is just a weird girl, bit goth, bit rebelish, bit tomboyish, She just love to talk weird, but it very good understandable if you know english good enough. You should try those japanese ntr games with mtl, then you know what incomprehensible is.

 

[Testament34]

this game awesome

Sorry about that! English is not my native language and I can't say what and where sounds bad in English! I wrote the dialogues myself, but translated both with Google Translate and with AI, I will be glad if you send me moments where the translation reads cringe or stupidly! Thank you.

unexpectedly, when moving around the house, I encountered dizziness on full screen like on the first Doom in pixel graphics, I had to reduce the resolution.)

Ok, I will add a function to disable smooth camera movement in the future

Unfortunately, the Android version has been postponed indefinitely. I couldn’t get my game to run properly on Android. Scripts constantly fail to work, even though the FPS remains good. This issue affects not only my custom scripts but also built-in Unity components (for example, colliders simply don’t function). I spent two days trying to fix the problem, but none of the solutions I found online helped. I hope to resolve this in the future, but for now, there will be no Android version.

Update 0.33 - Patch Notes
Bug Fixes:

-Added an emergency exit button to the menu (press F9) in case the game lags.

-Implemented a new input system (this should resolve the issue where characters moved on their own for some players).

-Gamepad Support:

Added basic gamepad support. Some UI elements still work poorly, and in mini-games, you’ll need to use the mouse for now—I’ll refine this later. However, you can now complete the game using a gamepad!

-Optimization Improvements:

-Performance should no longer drop in college and party scenes.

As soon as the opening cutscene ends and you gain control of the character. Arrow keys apparently also have the same problem that I mentioned about WASD.

I think I fixed this problem, the person who had the same problem everything started fine, I think 0.33 fixes your problem.

Found some errors
The game currently becomes extremely laggy and ultimately freezes when reaching the school for the first time. I cant even progress beyond this point, it freezes my pc.
Clicking on the menu button in the bottom corner doesnt always work, seems to require dragging the overlay mouse onto it.
Otherwise some visual bugs with the sprites, like sudden switching of which sprites overlap the other in the intro, the smoke from kates cigarette shows through the wall in her house, some general janky movement.

Good luck

I think I fixed all these issues in 0.33

I'm a bit confused what to do at the party after the "crazy" girl approaches while waiting for the bathroom. I go upstairs, try to enter and it says to find another way, so I go outside and jump on the trampoline which gets bugged out on the roof - then trying to continue jumping has me fall through the map into another plane of existence, to land back on the trampoline.

full save?

Depending on your choices before then, the trampoline may be your only way to progress that part. It takes a few tries myself to be able to progress.
