.... should've... maybe should've taken that warning..
HTML The Archmage [v0.1.2 Alpha] [Black Dahlia Studios]
I know it'd put more work on your (probably already well overloaded) plate, but I'd rework it so people can choose their top and bottom sexual characteristics separately then going over their gender identity (i.e. choosing what's on the bottom, confirming, choosing what breasts they have, confirming, maybe choosing how they present themselves, confirming, and then choosing pronouns.)
if that's way too much for now, because I understand you're fairly new to this, then futanari is probably the best term to use for now. it's still loaded, but in the context of an 18+ game it's a better term. That or just a flat "both," nothing wrong with keeping it simple.
I appreciate you taking the time to listen to your community and being respectful about all this, I'm excited to see what absolutely sick shit is swimming around in that brain of yours... I mean that affectionately.

Thanks for the encouragement! I'm probably going to need it. Big milestones at my day job in progress...
In v0.0.2, players that don't select male or female can now choose between masculinity/femininity. This variable determines the presence of breasts (top) and their presentation/pronouns. It makes sense to couple these things. They can separately choose their genitalia (bottom). The only difference in your suggestion is uncoupling presentation and pronouns from masculinity/femininity, which doesn't make sense to me.
Having said that, even if it did make sense to me, there reaches a point where too many options become overwhelming or off-putting to the player and also make the development process unnecessarily complicated without a good reason. This is the same reason that I intentionally choose not to allow customization of height, weight, hair color, hair length, breast size, etc...
I like the current state of the character creation system. It's simple enough, but also allows consequential customization if desired. Seems to me that is the sweet spot.
I would honestly rather spend my time working on the narrative (Lord knows I will need to spend a long time on that) than creating potentially endless variables that also make writing more cumbersome.

I can do that. I just picked the ones with the smallest file size capacity because my files are so small lol
Figured they probably get less love from devs with huge files...
GitHub also supports downloads if all else fails.

I expected to see more sex for 4 playtroughs, always either bad end or stuck in a red link or another stupidity.
For me, that's not worthy of a first release supposed to lure people into liking the "game".
Not gonna try this ever again, just too many rookie mistakes for the first release.

When you're clicking download on a release that is clearly marked as a "pre-alpha" or "demo", it's your job to manage your own expectations.

It sounds like you played the Demo, which I also labeled SFW. If you want sex content, I would direct you towards Main.
Which mistakes did you notice?
Bad Ends are a feature, not a bug. And I agree with you that getting stuck on red links is unacceptable. I'll fix that in the next update

I would love to see a scenario where the protagonist gets seduced into liking futa even if they start reluctant. Would also love to see some Butcha-u style mouth tentacles too as a thing to corrupt the mind of the player. Really get them to give into a depraved sexuality that is inhuman. Embrace that pure lust.

I like the tentacles!
I'm not sure exactly how to incorporate reluctance... Those types of reactions/preferences will most likely be randomly distributed throughout.

I did try the full version today, same lack of sex, not sure where exactly is this supposed to be a porn game (albeit purely text based).
I am managing my own expectations very correctly and know not to expect much of Alfa games but again, I am a quick reader and what is here is 15 min of my time and not even a hardon. Sorry but I see this as a wasted potential, besides having a good backstory.

If you need inspiration for what I mean about the tentacles check these doujin out.

Currently, most of the sexual content is located in the Teaser section of main. Because the plot is relatively undeveloped, I haven't had the opportunity to incorporate it into the plot yet. It's only a matter of time.
Maybe come back when I have gotten some updates out, friend.
I'm sorry your experience was negative. Did you find bugs other than getting stuck on red links?

Actually really liked what is out now, in spite of the MC being Mary Sue-ish. I will keep an eye on its development, even if there is not going to be any smut added.

Thank you! MC is Mary Sue-ish by virtue of certain plot assumptions not yet revealed. However, the player will eventually have the choice to utilize these traits or completely waste them.
There will be smut added...
