Really fantastic stuff. Played through twice (wiped out the first time, hit the end the second).

Blanket praise: love the character design, incredibly cute catgirl, the UI is very slick, the highly stylised card and event art looks distinct and works really well. It's fun to play and stack up preg stats. The background art and the enemy art are great. The overall implementation is very high quality, it's really clear how much time and effort has gone into putting this together.

Other points - I know there's a ton of stuff here that's obviously just time limitations etc. so sorry if I'm telling you stuff you already know, but here's a list of stuff that struck me as odd or quirky


- it took me a few goes to realise that I was playing cards and not discarding them. Even a simple animation or a number pop or something would make this clearer

- an option to skip the intro would be nice

- Someone explained this to me on discord, but the contraction mechanic totally flew over my head - I had no idea why I was taking damage every turn, even when I stacked up tons of block. Clearly this is explained somewhere but the conveyance could be better

- it seems like an optimal strategy to find a weak opponent early on and just cycle through your deck spamming pregnancy boosting cards so you can then pick up the cards that scale with pregnancy. Not just because pregnancy scaling cards are good, but like, as a game about getting the character pregnant, the player wants her to get bigger. Maybe this is okay as a power strat? Could be mitigated by slapping Exhaust on those cards

- the cards related to pregnancy are fundamentally more attractive for the fetish content - making a fire deck or an ebb & flow deck lacks appeal because there's no obvious road to hugeness there. If these could be tied to different ways of being pregnant or different elements they might be more attractive, eg the ebb/flow cards relate to breast growth or if growth vs number of babies is a different strat. Or if there were more obvious fetish payoffs like ebb/flow cards that increase or interact with preg

- you have to click "skip" to close the loot window, even if you take the gold & the card. It should maybe close automatically after you make your choice?

- some cards "deal damage" and some cards "deal stamina". This seems to mean the same thing? It confused me, at first I didn't bother with the stamina cards until I realised they dealt damage too. If there is a difference between damage and stamina, it's not clear to me what it is.

- it would be nice to be able to see the character on the Stats screen, especially when you sometimes hit back-to-back events that increase the # of babies

I’m so glad you enjoyed our game enough to leave this review. It means lot! I agree that many mechanics and happenings in combat are poorly conveyed to the player. We definitely plan on addressing this with more animations, dialogue, effects, and more so it’s more obvious what is going on at all times.

While scaling pregnancy early can be a solid strategy, it can also lead to more residual contraction damage over the run so it can be risky. I have some ideas to address balance around this so the risk reward aspects are more meaningful.

I agree about cards interacting with the fetish being very vital. We definitely have tons more planned that should tie in the combat more to the pregnancy while still having interestingly designed mechanics.

Good point about the reward window. I do plan on doing a reward overhaul at some point since right now everything gives the same rewards. I’ll do this when I get to that point.

Deal stamina/deal damage are the same. We thought about saying deal stamina since it’s not technically an hp bar but the verbiage sounded weird. I didn’t make a second pass over the entire card pool when we decided to switch. My bad.

Character on the stats screen is definitely in the works! Ran out of time on the stats screen.

Thanks for your review and feedback. In addition to what you’ve listed, we have tons of other planned features. Please be sure to keep an eye out because your support means a lot!
