Okay I've played some more of the game but not half way through yet. I believe I've got some constructive feedback but I'm not sure if anyone would agree or not.


1) the game feels like it has too many branching paths and without the walkthrough images in the game it is a little complicated to get the best ideal scene without looking at the walkthrough first which sucks because don't want to pause the game to look at a weird squiggles with description bubbles.
It feels like the game is trying to please everyone at once like a jack of all trades but master of none particularly when it comes to kinks and the more branching paths you have I feel the more complicated it's going to be to develope the game when the roots spread out more.

2) I think it would be simpler if most of the Links/traits/fetishes where just checkboxes at the very start like.
Q1) do you like NTR/Sharing/Swinging/Gangbangs?
A1)NTR yes
A2) Swinging/gangbangs yes
A3) all of above
A4) none of above.

Q2) Do you like homoerotic content?
A1) no
A2) yes

Q3) if yes to homoerotic are you okay if Male & female harem members interact sexually.
A1) no, I want my girls and guy lovers seperate
A2) only if I know and consent first.
A3) yes, they don't need my permission as long as both male and female are in my harem.

I think a lot of time can be saved with a questionnaire at the start so you just get content you like.

3) some Link/traits seem odd to me, the black girl eventually gives you an option for the Taboo kink at the start and I thought that would allow me to get some "Roommate" content but all I got was the black girl bangin' her "Roommates" in the MC's thought clouds so I disabled it.

Later on regardless of the Taboo trait when talking to the black girl or cole the small dick bully you get asked about Anal but if you pick the silver back (all girls are my girls) trait you don't get asked about anal at all but if you are asked it's another MC thoughts bubble of another dude fucking the black girl...

And shortly after you finally get to meet your "Ex-Roommate" and if you label her as something closer to home you get Taboo enabled again so am I going to start seeing the black girl getting fucked by her "Roommates" again?

In short I think all the kinks/traits should be asked about at the start like a question sheet or something.

And than I think you should get mostly Yes/no answers basically asking "do you want to fuck this person? And all those dialogue options should be green & Yellow dialogue for game overs that have scenes/content and completely remove the Game over options that don't have content because who is going to click on a game over option that has no content, it's a waste of time.

Pretty much the game feels like there are too many unnecessary steps and options & there is a lot of rolling back or double checking the walkthrough images when it feels like it should be built into the dialogue choices and so far all I see is...
PINK for Homo
Purple for Femdom
Yellow for conversations that loop back around

4) maybe add a scene galley unlock so those of us who feel we might have missed something can check the alternative scenes instead of rolling back or starting a new game.

5) back to the previous points about being asked questions about kinks I feel like the game should basically be set up like..

Q1 do you like gay stuff
A1) no
A2) yes

Q2 do you prefer Harem or NTR/Sharing (other dick in general that's not yours with your Li)
A1) harem only
A2) NTR/sharing/Gangbang
A3) both with consent/MC agrees first

Ideally for myself I want to go a full Harem route and collect all the women like Pokemon, I'm okay with Femdom on other women but not myself.

The game also looks like it's been developed over years but only has enough content that someone can get through it all in one day if they really wanted to so I feel like the game could really benefit from some sort of restructuring or a greater focus on playing more like a regular yes or No AVN with the usual Harem/Corruption options and Less like a sandbox that doesn't actually have any of the exploring.

Did Ranli ever fix the version that forced you to pick Max instead of Flora if you explored any "Bi" options? we discussed it in November #8,685
I still haven't played that version (I've been trying to let some story build up + I have zero interest in Max),
The update that came out right after that one sort of fixed it. Straight players get the Aurora scene, Gay players get Max, Bi players get Max if they have met him before, otherwise they get Aurora. Whichever scene the bi players missed, they can see it right away in the second part of the mission.

so they said rick had something this update but I only saw cathy, or did I miss something else then the "kiss" near the end
The kiss was the only romantic content with Rick in this update.

If it's a little complicated to get to the best/ideal scene then maybe a sub optimal scene is fine if you aren't using a walkthrough. You want the optimization without the guide. That's not reasonable. This does make the game more complex to develop, but they've been doing very well so far.

That would be a fine approach but a) the kink blacklist operates more under 'we will give you less' as opposed to 'we will give you none' and I'd say the system is a fine compromise showing that there aren't any full blacklists. B) It makes the game very distinct

3) some Link/traits seem odd to me, the black girl eventually gives you an option for the Taboo kink at the start and I thought that would allow me to get some "Roommate" content but all I got was the black girl bangin' her "Roommates" in the MC's thought clouds so I disabled it.

A constant and strict telegraph of game overs hurts exploration IMO. Also, there are a lot of game over screens but the reused game over screens are far more common than the unique game over screens. You should be running into game overs naturally unless you know what to do.

4) maybe add a scene galley unlock so those of us who feel we might have missed something can check the alternative scenes instead of rolling back or starting a new game.

No, a) earn your scenes but also b) you have the images folder in the game where all the pics are stored. Also, it's OK if games are made in years and take less than a day to beat. This is a fine way to design a game.

I am playing a max perversion game here, but I am keeping crushing Rick's ego, it's very satisfying. That being said, when I am crushing his ego my thoughts are 'damn' but more importantly 'who are you?' I really like MC when he's actually intelligent but it's so rare that we get to it. Like please watch the crush his ego scene and tell me you wouldn't rather play as that MC. I really like that guy, why isn't HE the main character as opposed to the bumbling twindlebrain we've gotten up until now?

All of this, but also, SpaceCorps is already such an extremely simple and easy to play VN, I don't really understand how anyone can struggle with it. You have an in-game walkthrough, no actual game-overs, 'good choice' and 'bad choice' sounds, and all of the basic RenPy features on top of that (rollback, autosave, etc.). And just through writing alone, it's really obvious which choices lead to good or bad outcomes, all you need is some basic media literacy.

Like please watch the crush his ego scene and tell me you wouldn't rather play as that MC. I really like that guy, why isn't HE the main character as opposed to the bumbling twindlebrain we've gotten up until now?
Well, I assume by your username (lmao) that this kind of dynamic really appeals to you, but I'm personally not a big fan. There is a difference between just generally being confident, smart, and resourceful (which the MC is sort of progressing towards in the main story) and being a smug cruel little shit like he was in that Rick scene (and same goes for the Cole dom/bully routes). Just offering a perspective from someone who likes the MC as he is, lol.

I like the crush his ego option but as norm I'd prefer something midway between the flustered goof we have most of the time and the intellectually savage persona.

Haven't played this in a while but some of the recent reviews are saying the dev turned the sister into a whore that fucked everybody, that true?
It depends on your choices which version of canon events you get. If you you are a sharer then she's a slut on the ship. If you like to keep the girls to yourself based on your choices then she isnt. Also like the other person said, a lot of the time, if you dont pick an option to find out what happened, then it's as if it didnt happen at all. Not for this case specifically but just overall. It's how the dev chose to handle backstories apparently.

I'm willing to share with other women but not with other men.

....Whichever scene the bi players missed, they can see it right away in the second part of the mission.
So is that second part a forced scene or an optional one? I don't consider myself Bi as I have zero interest in Masculine characters but I guess I'm not 100% straight since I'm ok with Feminine that isn't female (Sissy/Trap/Trans)

It's an optional part of the mission, you don't have to watch the scene if you don't want to.

does this update get back to the main story or is it more daily chores to raise stats for no reason?
The main story is that the protagonist is in training. Various storylines are progressing. Is there any specific one you want to know about?
