Unity Some Heroines Climb Up a Tower to Ask God Why the Game Has a Name That's So Long [v2.70] [Sinful Salad Games]

[Skybreaker1337]

I could play the demo with no bugs. Now in this version, I have problems as soon as the start screen comes. The cursor goes UNDER the menus so it's very hard to actually select something. I can't pick the 1920 x 1080 resolution. The lower ones work, and the higher ones work, but if I choose that specific one, which I need, the game automatically puts it to the 2560x1440.

None of those are critical, but they did leave me stumped as I have never experienced those before.

I actually really enjoy the idea behind this battle fuck mechanic. Essentially, you're momentarily trading tempo in hopes of cashing in with big attacks the turn after for greater gains. Solid!

If I may make a suggestion though, I feel like this mechanic would benefit from more predictability, or from some way to influence how the enemy groping attacks shake out. I often find myself in situations where one of my characters with a move that needs Sexual Resistance to be used gets down to like, 20 or 30 SR, which is too low to actually use the move, but still quite a ways off from getting reduced to 0 and getting assaulted, especially when you take to account the passive SR gain from getting kills with base attacks. This makes the SR moves quite difficult to rely on, in my experience.

Taken this, perhaps some way to manipulate SR more directly could be considered? Taking a turn to masturbate for +SR for example, or maybe some way to 'present' to particular enemies if you're at low enough SR to have them target that girl with a grope attack with like a bonus to the SR damage they deal with that attack? This taunt idea I think would be a better fit, since it more fits the core battlefield manipulation gameplay loop of this game and lets you use the extant porn content more deliberately to your advantage. For example, use Taunt on an enemy you think you can finish off with the other characters to get them to assault you, use resulting SR refill + Afterglow to clean house.

Anyways, still really liking what's here so far!

So, is there a guide or tips to get costumes?

There's no guide, because it's simple: one of your girls has to "die", as in her stamina reaches 0, then you have enter the slave trader via the map travel to buy her back and she's in the bondage outfit.
Of, course, this method sucks for a variety of reasons, because for starters, losing 1 girl is a soft game over, you lose 33% of your effective damage efficiency, you're going to get flooded by enemies and lose soon. So you have to lose her almost literally right before the slave trader. And doing that on itself is largely a waste, because you're missing out on a treasure chest or shop with valuable items.

Hoping this system gets balanced or reworked somehow, because it's imply not gameplay-viable at all right now.

Well, there's a much simpler way to get it : Beat the slave trader in a fight, and all the captured girls get back to your team with bondage gear, and you have free loot ! (and keep your money)

Usually it'd go like this : you keep all of the girls, you get to the slave trader and choose to fight him. Then when his HP are so low he can go in one hit, you get one (or two) of the girls down, before defeating him with the remaining one(s).
A good way to force it is to overuse skills that take stamina on the girl(s) you want captured.
It's still risky, but the bondage costumes are great so it's really worth it.


Also, I'm really hyped to see more of this, having the bondage system rework is already really cool and the small quality of life improvement are really nice. (and the new ninja grope image is great)
As an aspiring game dev I know code can get weird, so it's great to know you guys took the time to rework it now.
I said it before but I'm really looking forward to where you'll take this game !

the full screen function does not work

The problem with volume so first sex scream is boosted and after 3-5 sec back to setting

That does seem like the most efficient method that I didn't actually think of. Then again, I didn't know that winning the fight against Brad is an alternative way to free your girls (other than buying them) though it does make sense in retrospect.

I feel like the main joke of the game isn't good. Characters asking god why the name of the videogame sucks falls flat. Something akin to "Let's Ask God!" as to why everything is so horny would work better as this is a h-game. Other than that I like the concept and think there's potential for this project.

Thank you. I respectfully disagree. I don’t know if you don’t get the whole cultural phenomenon that I’m satirizing, or maybe you do and just don’t think it’s funny. But It’s important to the themes of the story that the question has unrelated stakes. If the heroines were disturbed that the world they inhabit is hyper sexualized, it would impact their consent to entering the holy lands with pressure to enter into something they clearly take issues with. Also the question “why is the game so horny?” Has a very simple and obvious answer, where the question, “why is the name of the game so long?” Has many potential and complicated answers. It’s a more interesting question, in my opinion, regardless of if it is funny or not.
I’ve structured the entire game around the title, it’s pretty important to me and I’m proud of it.

this

causes my game to crash

Same here.

I used that 1HP mod in order to make it easier to find secret scenes, and then ran into something very interesting.
For some reason I let the mid boss that throws enemies to smash the heroines survive to the end of the level, and then he threw the final boss over to smash the ninja, which caused it to be impossible to end the level(Because the final boss isn't "defeated" by the player, I guess). I don't know if it's a mod issue or not, but it was really funny.
If this could actually be a way to defeat bosses in a future version, it could be a really cool design. Unbalanced, but really cool.

 

[J0hny1]

Game's quite fun, kinda reminds me of some sockpop games, Somehow the game has a feel similar to lucky town imo.

Had a problem when starting up the game today tho. For some reason I only got a blue screen after startup and it didn't go away.
Deleting the files in LocalLow and booting it up from my C distribution instead of an HDD I use for storing smaller games seemed to fix the issue.

Looking forward to the full release.

How did you manage to use the mod? It crashes for me when I try to use it. Where do you extract the file?

The joke is that in Japanese manga/Light Novels, specifically in the genre of isekai and fantasy, the titles tend to be this absurdly long title that end up being a synopsis instead of just a title.

It's a pain in the ass to do it on purpose. Like you said, doing it too soon is a death sentence, but doing it on time is pure luck, even if keep stamina under 10, it's a pure luck if enemies decide to use non-lewd attack on this specific character. If you try to do it with more than one, there's a chance they capture/fuck all of them.

Only viable way to do it for now is to cheat engine the stamina(its float) and change it to negative on the second last turn. You may need to cheat money too. It's a shame, those outfits are cool and they made specific animations with them for every action.

I thought this as well, but then a certain someone laid out a strat that I've considered once or twice but didn't bother to test because I'm dumb:

Tl;dr don't torture yourself by micromanaging stamina between locations, just fight Brad, get him low, then spam stamina cost moves on whatever characters you want in bondage. Once they're captured, kill brad, profit.

Just loads to a blue screen with a cartoon cursor on it. Unfortunate.

Trongle By the way, I've been meaning to ask this around when the first demo came out, but completely forgot until now; are there any plans to have some kind of long-term investment/progress system into the game? Something similar to unlocking new items/skills via the shops, but on a larger scale, so that you have things to work on and you're rewarded for success in beating levels.

The basic gameplay loop is very fine but, and maybe that's something everyone else will disagree with, I feel like the "metagame" is a bit lacking and I wonder if the plan is to keep it that way.

Guess we'll just just skip on by my questions I guess...

Probably because an answer you're most likely looking for was given a couple of posts above yours.

Yeah I have some fun progression stuff planned, I just don't think it's time for too much meta progression until i see how mutliple levels are going to affect the gameplay.
