Oh I love honest critique and thank you for thinking so much about it and writing it down. I will say something to everything you mentioned, so prepare for a looong response...
The lizard tongue attack.... Trust me, I suffered the most from it and changed the behavior a few times. This is a balancing thing, where I don't put so much focus on atm, because everything can still change like the player movement speed for example, a bit faster and the tongue attack is a joke, a bit slower and it's unavoidable, right now it is doable. When everything in the first floor is done, I will polish the balancing, because then I know what abilities are obtainable and what options do the player have to counter those "pain in the ass" tongue attack's. Having them stun the player, is a good idea. Yes I think I will implement that for the next version. Maybe you made it worse... ^^"
An ability like block or roll is already planed for the neutral skill tree, and you can already block some projectiles with the sword.
Yep the lizard-archer stun is to short and it will be longer in the next version.
Diagonal attacking and moving is something I would like to have already done by now, but what hindered me is the sprite work that needs to be done for it, but it will come.
A skip button is also a good idea, will be done.
The sex scenes have weird timers that need to pass,for the continue function to work, I coded some crap together there... To be honest, Im happy that they don't crash anymore or loop endlessly. They will be polished soon, because Im better now, yay!
Cheats to unlock the gallery?! This is something you need to work hard for, at least with downloading the save file from another website!
Maybe I will add some funny cheats, or a cheat version for patrons with a little advantage.
The thirst for more games like Thirstchasm, inspired me to do this in the first place.
The porn is not supposed to discourage the player, but I know what you mean. There are many games, where u have to lose to every enemy, to see every scene with game over screens and so on... It is.. super annoying in hard games.
The porn you get in my game will depend in your playstyle, so if you go the submissive way, getting toppled will give you more and more benefits, but dominating enemy's will get harder and harder and the other way around. This will give the game more replay value.
Oh and prethzy is a wolf with a cat's tail. This will all come more clear when I get the story done.
Thanks for the feedback, it helped me to think about some new things or rethink the old things.
You may pet your own shoulder now.
