It's very unclear how to play it. When do the sex scenes exactly trigger? Space bar or E don't start them when near the enemy, they just keep damaging my MC. Randomization is not always good, very ofter you start with useless abilities. How to restore health? I passed 3 floors and didn't find any vials. Would be nice to have a tutorial.

Thank you for comment. I will answer your questions in order:
Sex is triggered when enemies are very near the player, like very near. Also make sure you allowed NSFW content in game options.
I don't know what you mean about useless abilities. I have plans to add more, but it's work in progress.
You can restore health by finding vials, which drop from crates, jar and barrels. Or if you have "Blood" type weapon.
Having a tutorial would be nice indeed. Having controls prompt isn't enough.
I turned off VSync deliberately, it was causing really heavy performance spikes.
And you are right about messages. It just never come up in my head for some reason.
It's always helpful to read people's impressions and thoughts about my game. And I'd like to think, that it will slowly but surely improve my skills. Thank you very much for comment.
"Sex is triggered when enemies are very near the player" - but most of the time they just keep hitting me, until health is near zero. I just don't get what role sex playes in the game - it seems like a powerful move, since after that all enemies around get vanished, but how to trigger it on purpose without losing all health - unclear.
"I don't know what you mean about useless abilities" - like, shamans, for example, that use fire rune instead of shooting from a staff. You can't kill anymore with that fire rune, it's uncomparable with other weapons.
"which drop from crates" - couldn't find any, playing through 4 levels. I think you use too much randomization. Try quasy randomization instead, like, when you know you're going to put exacly 2 vials on a level and exactly one new staff, but their exact locations are randomized. Somethin like that. "Blood" type weapon makes it way too easy, comparing to vials.
"I turned off VSync deliberately" - I don't get why. My RTX card is just burning, outputing thousands unnecessary fps. If you think it's causing some issues on some machines, make it optional in the settings.
Thanks!
Ah, and one more thing. I like that you've added filters to the options - male/female/herms, but would also be nice to filter out crazy colors and style that most enemies have. Like, some option like "natural color", that would avoid purple/green/blue skin or hair. Also, when you generate males and females, you maybe could use only certain assets for certain genders, like men would not look like trans, etc. Again, that could be optional, because people can have different tastes. but it shouldn't be that difficult to implement (just tag assets "masculine", "feminine", "unisex" and use it if the player selected corresponding checkbox in the settings).
