You can squish Maggots by running over them too, in case you didn't know
I did notice that, but with them my biggest issue was simply knowing they were there. I get that's kinda the point, but I've got mildly impaired vision so getting grappled for what seems like no sense can be frustrating. Fair play for the challenge of it, just found myself grinding my teeth more often than I'd like. Otherwise I've found myself melting hours into this so far 'cause it's addictive as hell (personal favourite is the Death Hound, Jenny, and the Spider mother in terms of enemies.)
Just got a bug that ruined my only good cave run :'( for whatever reason as I took morphine to get a buffer in case a musca tries to yeet me, the needle didnt vanish, got stuck in my PCs hand, and I was unable to drop it manually or switch weapons until she broke. Might have to do with taking drugs too quickly one after another (was trying to minimise the time needed to get my weapons re equipped before the next wave).
Not sure if it's already a known/reported bug but I hope I helped anyway :)
No problem, bugs happen :P
By the way, I've nearly done everything now after a LOT of grinding kills, but the only experiment left to do for me is the hypnosis one and I thought I'd ask, does it have to be a full hypnosis scene for it or can it just be an attempt? I know it says to get hypnotised 15 times but even with 0% libido to begin with I get a lot of pleasure gain and end up only getting about 10 or 11 before breaking.
I tried taking Anaphs beforehand but it only cuts off about a third of the libido gain because of the long animation, and getting them stockpiled to cope tends to cause me needing to go 30+ waves and getting overwhelmed by spider mothers etc.
