So after playing this I've got questions and a couple complaints.

First off Energy- Is there a way to increase you max Energy past 8.0 and I'm just missing it? Because ho boy that limit is brutal when I'm trying to escape... Anything and when I just make it to the end but RNG just decides I lose my grip and slide back one state... Which results in me having to give up, take an extended rest, and hope I still have time to try again. And that's before attempting the Essence gathering.

That's really my only complaint so far.

In all honesty I can't wait to see more Apex and Consensual preds added to the game and extensions to current preds (I'm a bit disappointed you can't stay in the Lamia's human belly with another prey though, or have two prey in the Feral Snake at once.)

Do you plan to add Driders/Arachne's and Slime Girls to this game though? I would love to see them... But I think the spiders might require an arachnophobia mode for some people

Thanks for the feedback, glad you seemed to enjoy the game.

There is not a way to increase energy past 8, and I don't think future Fairies will add this either. Though I'll know better once I'm actually in the process of adding them. The current Fairy does increase max Mood and Drive, so I suppose it would make sense in a way to have at least one Fairy help out here. Next release should have difficulty settings for Normal or Casual mode, or if players want something in between can do Custom mode and set each setting to what they like. There will be an option for instant escape where just pressing the button will get Amelia out. Until then, the other option would be to enable the Debug menu and use it to increase energy while escaping if you'd like to attempt another escape right away, or make sure you have enough for the current attempt.

Yes, Drider and Slime girls are planned to be added. Not sure about an arachnophobia mode for just one predator, but I may at some point make the game more customizable by having an option for each predator to be allowed or hidden.

A difficulty setting would very much be helpful during escape and essence gathering. Mainly just to offset my poor luck when RNG just decides- No.

I've also noticed in previous comments you planned to make the game Open Source so modders can add in things. Do you plan to add instructions or some form to help people (at the bare minimum) add new characters? I'm no artist but my battles with Kuro Ai are definitely getting some interesting results.

Yeah that'd be in the plans at some point. Once the game is near completion, I can make a list of some sort that explains my process. To add new logic would be tough (the unique things that some predators have, like Succubus checking every 3-4 hours to see if her prey is active enough), but if you don't mind copy/pasting the behaviors a current predator has, then the process of adding a new predator should be easy enough to explain. I just have no idea how modular or easily sharable it would be; I don't think the game has the ability to not exist as one whole piece. The game currently does not have a way to load a character from outside of itself. If a modder were to supply everything required for a new character, anyone playing it would need to download the whole game to see it unless new logic is added for this. Not sure if I'm explaining this right, it's a bit late here.
