RPGM Relicts of Aeson [v0.13.0] [Doianu Games]

[lakano]

I don't have a android device to test it in any way. But together with the browser version this will come for sure.
Maybe this would also be a good investment for the first money from patreon. An old android phone

Wi fhiz game involve mind control z?

Gave the game a try. It needs some proofreading and personally I think screen shake and white flashing were overdone. Admittedly the white flashes during sex weren't that bad, maybe make them somewhat subtler? Screen shakes on the other hand annoyed me e.g. when talking to the inquisitor: Yes, the MC has been raped and mindfucked and her girlfriend has been abducted but imho you don't get the title/status of masterthief and then start shaking like a leaf simply because some inquisitor starts yelling.

Thanks for the feedback. Jaike was super kind and proofread the dialogues. I will correct most of the dialogues with the next update.

Maybe it's just the building that shakes if the Inquisitor talks? ;-) I will take a look at the flashing

Yes, third crisis is actually the inspiration. Third crisis is one of the best games out there, but for whatever reason there are not so many games out there following the awesome formula of third crisis. We also don't like the classical anime/hentai-style that much.
Also we thought that it is good if people have a reference and know what they can expect

Third Crisis assets were sometimes used as an reference for our artist, but all of our assets were made from scratch

i don't understand how you can think a game like Third crisis can be better or even equal to Karryn's prison for exemple.

Third Crisis is a story based game rather than a rpg in my opinion. I don't get the appeal of that,, might as well just watch a hentai. There aren't many real choices to make and the replayability is not there.

I didn't play Karryn's prison, because I don't like the giant-tit-stuff so much ^^ Maybe I should give it a try, I already noticed that it is quite popular.

I think the difference between a hentai and a game like third crisis is that a game always has a better immersion. And immersion is the key element of a role playing game, or what is your definition of a RPG?

The base of a good rpg is the progression of the main character for exemple through skill and stat evolution regarding the player preference as well as interesting gameplay mechanics that can be exploited in the form of a specific combat system, or exploration management, or more or less hard puzzle and mini game to achieve, or all of this.

The concept of Choice is extremely important in a good rpg. Not meaningless choices like you find in 80% of rpg or hrpg :
"What will be my character personality and more important, how the game is going to react to my choices while keeping me interested"

It's useless for exemple to make the player choose between different options, if at the end not both options offer an interesting result. If you get 20h of gameplay and 150 CG by choosing to be a total slut, and only 12h of gameplay and 50 CG is you choose to play your character as a more realistic person, then there is an issue with the game.

Story and immersion are great... but that's not what make a game a rpg. They are what make story driven games good or bad. RPG can have excellent stories too, don't misunderstand me, but before caring about the script in a rpg, the gameplay and character personalisation have to be top notch.

 

[pklmjn]

And that's the reason why you can't cater to every player. Some players need really meaningful choices, some are happy with the illusion of choice. Some people can spend a LOT of time staring at numbers, optimising them and enjoy getting the maximum in-game effect out of them. For some people these numbers are a boring tool they need to touch occasionally so they can enjoy the story/atmosphere/pics/... . Some players want a challenge, some want their porn without any obstacle.

In my last post I forget to mention: This is a good start for a game, it seems quite a bit of planning went into this and I like that the female MC is not some too-dumb-to-breath girl.

I 100% agree with you if we talk about normal games.

But I think for adult games the situation is different. An adult game shouldn't be like a normal game where you just add some nasty stuff. Fighting is the central mechanic in most normal RPGs (think about it: even in story-driven RPGs you spend most of the time actually fighting). Winning fights and master the fighting system is what actually brings the fun. It triggers your reward system if you win a fight.
The character progress is build around this fact. You become stronger, learn new spells, find loot, do quests for gold... ALL of this usually ends with making your character stronger in fights.


What is the central mechanic of an adult game? It's the nasty stuff! Like a normal RPG is basically build around the fighting system an adult RPG should be build around the nasty stuff.

I think most people don't really care about classical game mechanics in an adult game. You have to think about new game mechanics which circle around the nasty stuff instead around fighting.
That's why we e.g. decided to build a sneaking/stealth-system in our game instead of a fighting system. A fighting system is really bad for an adult RPG. It adds nothing to the game. Ofc you can add sex-scenes if you lose a fight, but then you reward players for losing. This is a contradiction.


At least that's our Idea which we build our game around

Give Karryn's prison a try. It may unlock for you a new perspective on what can be achieved and what can please the majority of the playerbase.

Even if it doesn't change your opinion, it's a game any hrpg developer should know imo.

What kind of corruption exactly we are talking about here?

 

[Doianu Games]

I released an update. You can get v0.02 here in the thread. It includes mostly reworked art from v0.01 and fixes! You can see it in the change-log.

v0.03 has completely new content, but since my patreon get access first I can't publish it here yet

 

[slimegirl]

Does anybody have the first version of the game that they can upload?

Please don't distribute the first version of the game. Not everybody was happy that some art was inspired from TC

Could you upload it somewhere then? I was going to download it the day you uploaded it, but something came up and when i came back you had already updated the game.

 

[Doianu Games]

So, the next update will include some "real gameplay". You will be able to sneak around.

Here is a little tech demo of a distraction-mechanic.

errors have not gone anywhere, everything is there in the same place.

what you mean by errors? Bugs, translation...?
E.g. Most of the walk-outside-the-map-bugs should be fixed. Translation is still ongoing.

Sounds good so far! Since your scenario is unique (female, tentacles), ever thought of doing some things that other games can't do? Like pregnancy, birth, eggs--these would be very different and noteworthy in the "victory based" style you have, especially with lesbians.

 

[lakano]

Will this game include lezdom protagonist being dominated by ankther wam and or mind control ?

nice game thank you
