VN HTML SlutEd [v0.15] [Shark in a Hat]

[shark_inna_hat]

This game would be so good if it weren't for Ben or the various nameless asshats. I want to slut in peace, free from negative consequences.

...or at least if we could have a different relationship with Ben. Less of the "manipulative/blackmailing asshole" and more of a dodgy buddy.

Actually, no.

0/10, could actually have been great.

If someone could mod this or give us a version where we have control over how slutty we wanna be, and nobody is forcing us or 'forcing' us to do anything, then this could be a top-tier game. This last part, in the spoiler, completely and utterly ruined the game for me.

I don't think 0/10 is fair if that's the only issue with the game you have - especially if the event in question is avoidable.
I'm attaching a mod that lets you bypass that scene and that choice will be included by default in future versions.

Starting from the next in-game Monday the game will be in free-roaming mode, you will be able to go around and do what you want without anyone forcing you to do anything. Mostly.

While I understand where you're coming from, this particular game is not the biggest offender in the 'forced/blackmailed/duped into sluttery' department. Not sure if you can find at least 3 games here featuring a female protag who's mature and horny enough to decide she wants to suck and fuck this or that dickout of her own volition, with no 'bad' consequences apart from perhaps dissapointment that this or that dick didn't last long. By default, women in most lewd games are receptive objects of male lust, rather than sex beasts actively seeking debauchery the way that harem-collecting male protags do.

Having said that it puzzles me that you dislike this game just because one of (avoidable) NPCs is an asshole, while this particular game features a lot of other male NPCs who aren't pieces if shit and, funnily enough, often act as either soft opportunistic seducers/corruptors, or cynical moralists, concerned love interests or shocked members of public.

Who? Where? When?! Must be a bug. Pls send report.

I don't know, might be a bug or not reading walls of text carefully enough, but Jeff and Lenard seem like honest pervy schoolmates. The Principal now tries to establish himself as Emily's (im)moral guide, which I hope will be further expanded and consistent in this conflicting, tease'n'denial / rebuke'n'approval tone of 'if you continue to be acting like that, young lady, I will need to punish you so severely that you'll never want to stop acting like that!'

Yeah, I was way too harsh. It was late, I've had some wine, and was enjoying the game, and then was hit with that event. I was starting to believe that Ben was becoming more of an enabler with a hint of protectiveness*, as opposed to pure abuser, and the whole "go be a whore, or else" bit was just.. well, it's a thing that I strongly, STRONGLY hate. A bit too real. I'll say no more.

And I went and paid his bail because, frankly, I thought it was better. Plus I cheat in money, so that's not a problem.

*I mean, for an example, the scene in the shower where you can give the boys a show. It would've been excellent if me and Ben talked about it, and he arranged for the guys to be there without their phones. But even then, he stops it from being a possible gangrape, so I figured things were improving and he wasn't completely irredeemable. I was obviously wrong.

I've a save before that, so I'll go back to that and leave him where he belongs.

99% of the games here I find revolting, so I don't play them. This game, however, has things that I'm very much into, such as being mildly groped on a bus, and having the option to choose to encourage and escalate it without any negative consequences; to have enough agency and free will to be able to enjoy in sluttery, without that leading to violence or ostracization. And, of course, having the options to say "no", "stop", and so on, and having that choice be accepted. In other words, I am in control of what and how much I engage in sexual activities.

I'll leave my previous comment up, because I was an ass and shouldn't hide it. But I do again apologize.

Addendum: also updated my review.

I'm on the same page and would love to see more female protag porn games which are explicitly consensual from start to finish, even if the MC is engaging in extreme or otherwise unusual sex practices and situations. And doesn't have to 'pay the price'.

Bug report: when you're on the beach topless?, and some guys say you have nice tits and you thank them, it leads to a dead end where you need to reload.

Looks like it's the "beachwear_expo_4_7" node, in beach_beachwear_branch.

Also, I'd like to edit the BBC bit so it's just a guy who happens to be black, and remove the BBC focus/race aspect. Do I just open plot_edit.html, open the relevant nodes, edit the text, and hit "save node"?

Reckon I could also edit other dialogue this way, make things friendlier, more consensual, and clean up the ass-to-mouth bit.

Cleaned it up a bit. Also, I think, I fixed the node mentioned above.

Changed: Fixed some typos, removed references to race in the pool party*, toilet, and on the beach, made the scene in the basement less rapey, added warning to rape scene.

Never used this sort of thing before, but hopefully it'll work. But it looks like there's so much that would need work, it'd almost be quicker to make my own game from scratch lol

Also, you really should add a "rape" tag.

*clearly missed some, but I didn't want to spoiler myself too much.

B.B.: How about if it's a big, black cock?
Emily: That's the best kind, really.

Even after I said "no" every time in this run, apparently I've some sort of racial cuckolding fetish. Great. Arousal completely gone, back to editing.

..actually, no. I don't know how to add options to say "no", and since I didn't wanna have sex with BB yet the game doesn't allow me to say no, I'm just done.

Maybe add 'racial cuckolding' as a tag, since it seems to be unavoidable to have a preference for black guys.

Ya know what? No. Don't go into the critic business on any scale. You don't know how to be constructive or objective. Your basis for ranking something is based on ONE piece of criteria, and ludicrously, making all other facets for judging moot.

Keep playing by all means, but just keep your opinion to yourself. It isn't helping the dev in the slightest, and personally, it was infuriating to read.

The only one I can think of right now where the woman keeps some control throughout is Good Girl Gone Bad. What I'd really like is a female protag with a typical harem building style of HTML games. I want to see a woman who manipulates men while she builds an empire and takes over the city. If I knew the first thing about making a game and wasn't so lazy maybe I'd write it myself.

But, SlutEd never sold itself as that game and I love it just the way it is.

There's also this quite old and basic RPGM game called 'The Poor Whore', where your heroine starts as an inexperienced but ambitious new whore in town who wants to become the most famous prostitute in the realm. Very simple and short, no GCs whatsoever, just textual descriptions, yet it covers plethora of fetishes and offers seven possible endings. All the time, the MC is is making conscious decisions whether to pursue this or that activity and her clients openly signal what they're into, so there are no typical deceptive scenarios involving bar waitressing ending in a drunken orgy or receiving a massage from Shrek's stepbrother, which ends in losing virginity, getting pregnant and giving a birth to a half-ogre.

I quite enjoyed GGGB, even though it's quite a convoluted branching novel, where without a walkthrough, you as a player are taking somewhat clueless decisions, not really knowing where they're going to lead.

Hey, if the prudes get a mod, I want Ben to whore Emily out for street gangbangs and her to ask for more.

same, even just giving the option to stop what's going on and walk away makes it 100% better. I can't play most male protag games because it almost always feels like rape. The woman being into it is awesome, I liked this game because the exhibitionism felt optional and wasn't forced (for the most part)

beachwear_expo_4_7 had a missing link, fixed in the dev branch.
You can check out manual/manual.html if you want to know more about the engine and editor, and if you want to make your own game - go for it! That's why the engine is open sourced in the first place.

Hey, if the prudes get a mod, I want Ben to whore Emily out for street gangbangs and her to ask for more.

You know you can get a feature request each month for just $10?

You must be registered to see the links

The problem with gangbangs is the lack of source material... but maybe I can stitch together some images, I think I'm getting better at it.

I don't think it's a big surprise for anyone that GGGB was one of the reasons I started making this game in the first place. There was a lot I liked in that game, but there was enough of what I didn't like that went full Bender mode on it:

Adding Blackjack is still on the todo list tho...

It probably helps that in GGGB my first playthrough I decided to make her life as terrible as possible. Just take anything bad and ruin anyone around me. Be a bitch, fuck everyone, take as many drugs as the game will offer, don't think about tomorrow. Since those choices are kind of clear cut it gives a good baseline for replays.

And maybe that approach has something to do with why I like SlutEd.

I mean, does anyone make a VN any more without taking some inspiration from GGGB? FWIW I would really love that game with your style of visuals.

It's all in the framing and execution for me. For a non-porn comparison, I compare things to The Last Of Us. TLOU is a story with basically absolutely nothing new or surprising. Not a single moment I didn't see coming. Probably the most generic zombie story for some time. What made it so popular, and one of my favourites, is that it's all done so well. The atmosphere, the tone, the voice acting, it all comes together to tell an old story really, really well.

For now, that's where SlutEd stands in the corruption porn game world. I'm not looking to go "Oh my god, I really didn't think she was going to get slutted out this time but then BAM! plot twist!". Just a classic story well done. Comic farce meets teen porn star, depravity ensues.

 

[waxing carnauba]

Yeah, I was way too harsh.

Don't let people guilt you out of your opinion. You weren't *way* too harsh; you just weren't specific enough. (Though 0/10 for one issue might be a tad much...)

I agree with you, even with the filter full of pinot. The premise of the game is great, and yeah you (eventually) have the option to leave the problem in jail, but I agree with you--by that point it's too late. The damage is done. (Like, maybe not 10 points of damage on a scale out of 10, but damage nonetheless.)

Spoiler: And here's a very brief attempt at 'specific enough'...

I think the problem with Ben is that he's been written as the earliest NPC in this game and for a long time he seemed the only corrupting agent in Emily's story. That's why perhaps he's too many things at the same time: a childish prankster, an almost successful adult seducer, a heartless pimp, a stern 'daddy', etc. Now that a real pimp has been added and the Headmaster has taken a role of authoritarian corruptor, Ben comes out as that poem you wrote when you were twelve and have recently found it in the depths of your drawer some 20-30 years later.

Nothing that couldn't be helped with a bit of editing and rewriting of some events.

Then again, the forte of this game is that it's a straight-to-porn VN, with absurdly comical setup, full of openly ironic illusion of choices for Emily. For example, what are your options when replying to a shady bar customer, who came all over Emily's face? "Thank you, Sir!" or "But I wanted to swallow".... not much of life changing decisions to take. I don't think the dev is trying to outdo GGGB or Eva Kiss' newest project in creating a complex story, where you have to navigate a vast sea of relationships to see 15 possible different endings. Yes, the NC content could be toned down, but that's just my opinion and it takes more creative effort to write scenarios which are over the top kinky and fully consensual at the same time - a lot of dick with no dick moves.

 

[LTD]

I dunno why, but after all the back and forth about Ben and the less-than-consensual (worded that way because it's quite variable in how non-con each scene is) I wanted to pop back in and say my two cents again.

To me, as much as I love this game, A LOT, the two glaring problems it still has in my eyes is the lack of shoes (no, I won't ever be "over" that, but I've accepted this reality ) and how sparse the actual non-consensual scenes are. Essentially there is nothing that I would say is actually non-con, in my view, because everything that's here is better described by a more precisely chosen tag, i.e., "Blackmail."

I still wish there was a path where Ben doesn't die after you leave him in Jail and he comes back with a "No more Mr. Nice Guy" approach to turning the MC into a slut/sex toy/whore/whatever. There isn't (if there is, I can't find it), and I don't expect it. I'd even settle for some blatant random rape scenes. The more the better. If that not in the plans, that's also fine.

Shark should make the game he wants to make, I will like it and play it or I won't and I won't. Simple as.

 

[bbobson]

With you on shoes, be great if she wears heels so high, so much that she can't go back to flats. I want her to chase danger more and more, where turning tricks doesn't do it for her and she wants to do more extreme stuff in the coffee bar basement.

 

[shark_inna_hat]

I mentione it some 50 or 70 pages back - the idea behind Bens character is that he acts like a protagonists in a male protagonist VN turned into a NPC (his Whitch Trainer shirt should be a hint, but maybe people forgot about that game by this time? Akabur where's the update?!). You should hate Ben and I think he's very good at being hated on. If you guys really want him gone - I can help with making a mod for that, but nothing more.

I've also said earlier that it was perhaps a mistake to make the paperdoll with no feet

 

[bbobson]

Can include shoes in the plot without adding them to the paperdoll, just sayin.
