HTML Viceburg [v0.0.5b] [MadProd]

[Rodorinho]

Save if you want to skip this excruciating part of collecting love and relationship

 

[MadProd]

one of the things that is driving me nuts is lowering NPC's dominance, since you can only instill submissiveness once a day, kind of too grindy. especially when you are trying to feminize them

There are no restrictions on the number of times per day to reduce NPC dominance. This option slightly lowers your relationships. Also, dominance is lost upon defeat in combat.

If any content is available for any MC gender, the point of choosing a gender disappears, as the only things that change are the images and pronouns.
Gradually, I will be adding content for all genders of the MC, so that playing as different genders provides a unique experience

I mean, that's quite literally the point, yes. It should be just for the sexuality of the character, not just locking you into specific "exclusive" content that isn't talked about or shown in the beginning at all.

I had quite high hopes for this but... while you definitely have high skills in coding with twine, your lack of knowledge in the actual game development aspect seems to be a bit lacking with this statement. Not only does this severely limit player's ability to play your game, it means this is going to have such a longer development time before it's even playable. Especially if every update monthly is just one "gender exclusive" small tree of activities.


You're biting off way more than you can chew and the result will just be a burnt-out dev with a very unfinished project that had potential. Seen it too many times.

there is a macro bug in the red light area
namely: there is no return button (a black screen appears) after losing a fight to a pimp.
A macro error also appears when using the online translator of the browser application.

Not quite right. Creating content immediately for all genders would require approximately the same effort and time as writing separate content for each of them, as all conditions and differences between genders must be taken into account. Moreover, this approach would increase the potential for bugs due to the complexity of the content.

In addition, such an approach would render content related to transformation completely meaningless. Furthermore, the majority of the content would still be accessible to all genders.

Currently, my main task is to develop a solid technical foundation, introduce necessary game mechanics, and add uniqueness to non-storyline NPCs. Only then will I start populating the game world with content.

We are building the skeleton first and then adding the flesh and skin, not the other way around. Otherwise, we risk ending up with an unwieldy homunculus instead of a game.

An online translator can also translate some text related to code that is necessary for functionality, so I do not recommend using it.

I know it sounds kinda weird but maybe you should sort the clips by age and race?

Kinda jarring to romance an asian girl only for clips of white and black girls to be mixed in during the sex scenes.

Originally, I intended to do that, but due to the game featuring 3 genders, 3 races, and currently 3 poses, with any of them potentially taking on a dominant role, there are a total of 81 combinations. Even if it's possible to find such a volume of content, it will weigh a lot, or there will be significantly fewer images, and they will repeat more frequently.

Currently, I am gradually collecting and organizing video clips for this, but most likely, the skin variations in the clips will only apply to women and trans.

 

[earldick]

Hey! I'm glad to see you took peoples constructive critisicism to heart, MadProd!
I like the direction the game's going.

 

[bro111]

I am planning a lot of tags: Pregnancy, slave training, mind control, NTR and more.
Unwanted content in the game will be skippable.

uhh.... Pregnancy. When?? QwQ

 

[MadProd]

uhh.... Pregnancy. When?? QwQ

Most likely not soon, but it will be added in the future

Actually, dominance problem easy solved by beating. It is a 90 points of friendship after all those beatings driving me crazy. There is no forced alteration without insanely high dominance and friendship. Only one of those should be enough

Some Feedback about the "Saves" option :
I tried the game last night, talked to NPCs, explored the areas ... During interaction with NPCs there is no option to save. When not interacting with an NPC, there is the "Saves" option, but for me it was hidden in the area of the sidebar which is only visible when I scroll down so I didn't see it. I play on a 1920x1080 screen.
When I wanted to save the game last night, I was in interaction with an NPC and so there was no "Saves" button and so my first impression was it is a demo of a complex game without option to save and I was about to delete it.

Any reason why there is no save option during NPC interaction?
Maybe consider to place the Save button on top of the sidebar instead on bottom so that new players don't miss it?
It would also be great to add the "Back" and "Forward" buttons as other sugarcube html games have. Makes it much more comfortable to play and reduces the number of save operations.

 

[Laughingfox]

Thank you for the feedback! I will fix these bugs.


If you're asking whether there will be trans clients when the MC works as a prostitute: All clients are NPCs in the city randomly chosen by the system if they have a penis and their sexual stamina is not equal to 0.

Well, damn. Guess the rng of gals with something extra was not in my favor this day.

So, as I absolutely went out and got my ass wrecked at the start, I noticed a couple of things.

One, while you are given a leave of absence from school, there was zero reaction from my roommate that I went out one night, and didn't return for a week plus with a body that would make a pornstar weep with envy.

Even a little 'I warned you' could work here, I think. Other options could be them being intrigued, or looking to take advantage.

Is there any system in place that improves the odds of being approached depending on how well you fit a characters ideal? Or how pent up they are?

In the way of a true seductress, it's probably way easier to convince others to do stuff for you if you talk them up and keep them happy. Maybe a temporary buff of some kind?

Last one: is there any properly slooty clothing about, and does it actually have an effect? Most of the clothing store options seem pretty tame, with nary a short skirt to be found.

Male mc at 1st day got into a fight with a random girl and lost. She forced him to swallow some pink pills. Is this the start of a randomized forced feminization and m2f transformation?

After the fight mc had 0 Energy. He could walk around but had no Energy to talk to people. Only way to restore Energy I found was to wait until night and go to sleep. Shouldn't Energy regenerate over time in a game with a time system based on minutes?
(It is different for games where a time slot eg represents a whole day and you have an energy budget for this whole day.)

I played a lot of html games and this game is different in the UI, so maybe better set up a short page (no wall of text) with hints for new players how to play the game.
Usually you visit a location and have the option to do actions, eg visit the gym and work out. In your game you have to visit the gym, then find the trainer among all the random people, talk to him, buy a training for 100$ and you need to meet the energy requirement. If you visit the gym at a time where no trainer is there, there are no options and it looks like work out is not implemented for new players.
This pattern, visit location, find the right person, talk, to do the location specific action applies to most actions. Exception is the class where the mc needs to be at the location at the right time and there has a button to attend class.

This game is about micromanaging time, energy and money.
It would be useful to see a numerical value for Energy since having less than 50 Energy seems to block work or training and having less than 25 Energy will result in automatically loosing a fight. Talking to people seems to be a constant loss in Energy.
80 $ for an energy drink which restores a small amount of Energy seems way too much if the player is capped to work once a day and get ca 200 $ per day at start. Would you work a day for the value of 2-3 energy drinks, roughly restoring the energy you spent working?
As I wrote above, better add Energy regeneration (and maybe also meals and rest times).

Locations with specific business times should have the option to wait until the location opens, eg wait until 8am or 9am.
Maybe also add some info for new players how specific locations work and abou the business times.

The save button is intentionally hidden during conversations and various events. At any other time, it is available. Perhaps I will change this in the future.

It would also be great to add the "Back" and "Forward" buttons as other sugarcube html games have. Makes it much more comfortable to play and reduces the number of save operations.

This is related to the features of SugarCube. It's better not to include Back/Forward buttons in such games, as it will create too many copies of object states and the game will start to lag. These buttons are intended for linear stories.

In future versions, NPCs will react to the player's changes. Also, the player will have various reputations that will affect how NPCs address them.

Currently, the game features an 'attractiveness' attribute, which depends on body characteristics and slightly eases the acquisition of friendship or love points. In the future, all this will play a bigger role. Makeup, clothing, body hair, etc., will also affect this attribute. At the same time, sexual clothing will be introduced, which will influence this characteristic.

How do you change the stats like fighting skill in sugarcube?

Yes, in the next version, there will be more information for new players. There will also be buttons to simplify the waiting process. Initially, I wanted to put all this information in an 'FAQ' button, but it will be more illustrative to write this information in the locations.

In the next version, there will be more ways to restore energy.
