Unity Succubus: The Lustborn Curse [v0.0.10] [Lustborn Studio]

[temporical]

As a pirate myself, I have no voice when talking about paid exclusives in games.

Though, when I *do* see this type of approach to games I oftentimes find myself wondering; In the context of the internet, and more specifically F95 and communities like so, it usually just gets bypassed anyways, and the income that would be made from it becomes stagnant as they wait for the next breach or hack to sweep up for customization and such.

I know that was my first thought when I saw I couldn't reduce my breast size or increase my body weight in the creation screen- "eventually, someone will find a way."

Granted, I'm unsure of exactly how else you'd make paid incentives in H-games, and it's actually a decent topic. This game is taking the Bioasshazard approach with customization and while I see the vision, I think even people who do get the paid version will still have remorse and will be unsatisfied, and almost wont even care about the actual game outside of the customization. Then again, it also means that whatever is behind that paywall becomes the *only* relevant thing. The reason I say they will have remorse in this context is, if you pay for the customization, and that customization doesn't actually provide what you're looking for, especially in a H-game made for these erotic fantasies, people will start to ask for more to make their money worthwhile. Eventually, you're putting more effort into features for customization instead of your actual game. Like, if I *do* pay and get these unlocks, will she actually have a flat chest, and will the bone size be wide enough for my liking, and if not I then have reason to have remorse or complain. If it's not what I want then I become dissatisfied and before you know it everyone is unhappy with the customization. Then the dev(s) are now having to save face by putting more effort into the customization and not what they actually wanted for the game.

Though, if it was absolutely necessary, what could you paywall? Not the levels or enemies, since that's apart of the player fantasy. Not customization since it's also apart of the fantasy, but also the representation of the player and if the player can't represent themselves at least to a pleasing amount it creates discomfort. Maybe, graphical settings, but you don't want to create a problem and solve it by having the player pay for it, just causes your playerbase to want to hack and modify files. Can't paywall a gallery since it would make playing the game almost pointless if it's not already a satisfying gaming experience... Hmmm... I really don't know how'd you'd go about telling the player to pay for something in a H-game without buyers remorse. People will feel pressured to buy something in a game that changes the experience almost spiting the player for wanting to have a fantasy. The player will walk away or wait for a crack ( i.e gallery videos on a adult video platform, sharing the paid game on sites similar to f95, or deliberately going out of their way to modify and unlock benefits )


Alongside the fact that you are already technically paying for the game's development via the subscription I don't think there's an approach that would satisfy both creator and player.

Anyways, the game itself is decent and I can see it being popular eventually with the right care.

Couldn't have put it better myself.

Putting this as simple as possible, the problem with having content locked behind a paywall when the project is not even completed almost feels greedy, like you're trying to rip people off. I can say that just from seeing your posts alone and your interactions with the community here that this isn't the case and I'm hoping it never does, but there's always the chance it will and you don't ever want to do that.

I'm not trying to hinder your project in any way, shape or form, but eventually you'll get to the point with your current means of progression that people will subscribe to your Patreon for a day, download the new update(s) and test them out, and then unsubscribe until a new update comes along and to a game company like yours, that's a Death Sentence for you and your team and there's nothing you can do about it; you'll be working overtime, long hours into the night, lack of sleep, focus and much more and it'll take its toll hard and fast.

I'm happy to give you suggestions and support for such a thing to not happen but it's down to you and the team, and I wish you the best in finding that balance between making the paid content worth its while and the free content not being left behind.

I’ll be honest, I'm still pretty new to adult game market, and finding the right balance between public and premium content has been a lot of trial and error. Early on, I even tried releasing a censored public build, but quickly realized that was a poor decision.

As someone who’s pirated games in the past, I’ve never seen cracks or leaks as a real threat. People who can afford to support a game usually do while those who can’t still get to enjoy it.

That said, platforms like Patreon rely on some form of exclusivity to keep supporters engaged. Right now, I’m trying to find a middle ground between offering the full experience to public players, while giving Patreon backers meaningful extras. The goal is never to leave free players feeling left out or pressured into subscribing. I’ve been limiting customization options in the last few builds, but seeing how important that is in H-games, I’m rethinking whether that’s the right call.

I’m currently exploring the idea of releasing fully unlocked public builds with a one-month delay, but I’m not sure how that would impact Patreon support. Since this genre and its community are new to me, most of my insights have come from F95Zone and Reddit, and I’m definitely open to suggestions on what might work best, without hurting the game or turning away either side of the player base.

The suggestion I would give would come from how the developer of Breeders of the Nephelym does his updates; he puts several updates behind Patreon then he makes a full public release for both paid and unpaid supporters. This way you're keeping a good interest in your project while not forgetting those who cannot afford to support you.

That's always a bad choice..unless you want to release the game on Dlsite.

That's always a good compromise. Maybe you can try 2 months.
Or increase the frequency for patrons. Keep releasing "Nightly builds" and hype, hype.

But in general, I'm surprised that there's such a drama about it. Although all customization is locked in the free version, the game is fully playable.

Wait... isn't that racist?

If the Succubus gets hit by the enemies or knocked down they should aggressively fuck her til she cums her brains out. She shouldn't always be in a dominant position. If you kick ass you should get ass but if you get your ass whooped then the enemies should be able to get theirs off to. haha

That's a fun idea! The main challenge is making it fit the lore, since the MC is a succubus who drains health through sex so she's usually the one in control.

That said, a “Desperation” or “Last Stand” ability could work. Maybe when she gets knocked down, she releases a burst of magic that drives the enemy into a lustful frenzy, causing them to aggressively fuck her while she regains health. It keeps things lore consistent while putting her in a submissive position.

I’ll definitely look into the idea when expanding the abilities system!

I think that would be a great idea for her to top from the bottom to regain her stamina.

Nice I like that Idea! But I also think the lore of Succubi is kinda subjective because they overcome their enemies with lust but they can be overcome with lust as well so if an enemy is pounding them and they are receiving extreme pleasure they dont have the presence of mind to use their draining ability. I have seen many games/media where its actually the succubus's Lewd Crest above her vagina that actually turns the enemies semen into power or vitality so unless that lewd crest is activated the semen wont be consumed. But like I said its subjective and you can put whatever you want in the game. I just think that when there is battle/fighting involved either side should have the opportunity to gain the upperhand. But thanks for taking my suggestion into account either way.

Anyone have the patreon version? It isn't on the first post

Starting with the next release, we’ve decided to share the full version here as well — but with a 1-month delay. This gives our Patreon supporters early access as a thank-you for directly funding development. After that period, the same full-featured build will be released here. Appreciate your patience and support!

Fantastic choice, one I wholeheartedly agree with and support.

Thanks for adding left hand controls in the scenes! Another good thing to add would be facial expressions. At this point, the static face looks like a rubber doll. Maybe at least eye blinking. Mouth opening and closing, mimicking moans. Going cross eyed at culmination or second speed.

Is there a way to switch from swords to whip? I can attack with swords of course, but I can't figure out how to use the whip attack. What am I missing?

The whip becomes available after you defeat the first boss, located on the right side of the map. Once it's unlocked, you can use it by pressing the right mouse button.
