An adults only carnival crawling with creative attractions · By
So I wanted to switch over to using a community forum for chitinous carnival. Mostly to better manage information about the game and peoples feedback. Unfortunately, that means sacrificing the comments to the shadow realm. However, I have made sure to archive them to my personal storage.
Feel free to leave general comments here while I continue working on this area.
Dude LOVE the update <3
little question though, the minigame where i try to pull the worm out, am i supposed to click with good timing or hit some other button? i swear i miss every time even when i'm sure i clicked on it. so im wondering if i'm supposed to hit a key or something instead?
it may just be that i have terrible timing though, rhythm games and minigames always used to frustrate me, but i wanna make sure i'm doing it right!
also, i know it's temporary how the game loops around back to before the Funhouse scenes, but specifically after the Grip-Loss scene, after your message at the end of the game, i get a black screen all except for the bottom-left-corner where the Travel Icons are still there and clickable, but the main part of the screen stays black and i have to re-start the game from scratch. figured i'd mention this in case it helps with your programming and/or bugfixing if similar issues occur elsewhere in the game
hmm, i may have bitten off a little more than i can chew here. i cant seem to be able to run this game on my computer from the download file at all. and it's probably an issue on my end more than likely since this is an old computer and may not have everything i need pre-installed for this kinda thing...
still, happy to contribute and i have faith i'll get this working when i have more time, so i do NOT want a refund, those scenes are damn hot and worth every penny! XD
i can play it just fine on the free version on the Itchio site, so i'll just do it there and figure the download out another night, i gotta work in the morning. but just for a sequence of events: i downloaded the windows supporter version64 and the windows supporter version32 since i didnt know which one would be for my older pc. i clicked the zip file, opened it, and tried to click both icons and it gave me an error for one and a "choose program to open this file" for the other, and nothing i clicked seemed to work. i'm afraid that i am pretty unsavvy on computers in general ^^; was i supposed to like, unzip these things or something first?
ahh, yeah i shouda realized that earlier, but i was sleep-deprived the other night and couldnt figure it out, havent really dealt with zip folders before so i stuck myself ^///^
thanks! and again, i love this game and am happy to support it, even if only a little at a time <3
one of my favorite parts so far, is the line of text that reads: "You feel that a seed has been planted in him [-MRL]" after one of the new scenes at the funhouse... easy to miss if you're not paying attention to the log underneath the game screen, but man that seriously drives my imagination wild about the Friend of the player character <3 <3
oh... i just noticed the button in the lower-right-hand corner of the QTE that says, PULL...
sorry to bug you, no pun intended! XD i was clicking directly on the gauge/bar as the bug moved across the circular part, then the little arrow above it, then on the character's hand pulling the worm in time with the bug reaching the circle. never noticed the little button in the corner ^^;
Quite an intriguing game you have here, Can't wait to see what you do with it. Ngl, I'd find it interesting if you could just not pull out at that first scene and see what happens. lol. Good luck with further development! I shall keep watch with a curious gaze.
EDIT: Uh, I reread my comment and realized I kinda made it unclear what I meant, when I was talking about "If you could just not pull out" I meant like leaving your schlong in after the buggley boo already went in, like an option to "Ride it out" or "Stay in"
I don't seem to be able to open the \ menu - I'm using the win64 version, and I am a researcher tier on pateron. I tried to use the link in the latest post and every time I click it itch.io asks me to confirm that it can link to my patreon account, but then it does and I get through to the download screen. Is it supposed to say "Free Build"? though? Mayhaps that's my issue, and I just don't know where to find the other version.
OH, I'm so dumb. That's the wrong link. That's what I get for posting at 1am. I have fixed the posted. Additionally, here is the correct link: https://qwaxilixard.itch.io/night-crawlers/patreon-access
I was a bit confused at first about where the new content was, because I didn't notice the new "pull out" button in the corner during the glory hole scene. Admittedly the monochrome color palette doesn't really give all that many ways of drawing attention to it, but you might want to look into presenting choices in a different way than an extra button next to the "press here to continue" players have been clicking the whole time.
The QTE was also pretty puzzling to me (though I'm apparently not the first to mention this), since I didn't realize you still had to click the "press here to continue" button for your click to register.
just a question this game or just a free build i want to see more
edit: holy i probably high when i wirite this comment anyways my original question was if this is just a free release or the fully game because there only 1 scene but now with the new update i guess i already have the answer
I wish I could see more games or content like that I hope this project goes forward
just played the most recent version tonight after re-downloading, freaking hot and amazing new scenes since the last time! ^w^ <3
i think blacking-out certain scenes in the Free version on the Itchio webpage is actually a good tactic to get more people to check out the download version, like the bathroom scenes. though i thought it was a glitch at first until the "next" and text boxes describing the scenes showed up. then i realized it must be on the download version/develeper version so i re-downloaded! ^w^
maybe one thing worth mentioning i think, but not certain if its a bug, or a feature. the LST stat doesnt drop at all when cumming out the crawlies from the Funhouse or the Bag, but it Does drop to Zero when cumming normally after ejecting all the crawly inhabitants. is it just that cumming out bugs provides no true release to the character or something so therefore his lust dont drop? or is it just not implemented yet/bugged? figured i'd mention it
Also, just a suggestion, making multiple trips to the bathroom to cum out each different buggy inhabitant from the different internal nests they make in your body gets a little repetitive, it makes more sense that if you got multiple infestations at max capacity, your character would probably cum them all out in one long orgasmic session, one-after-the-other, until he's completely empty and a mixed swarm has basically just left him. again, just a suggestion! ^w^
i love this super kinky game, love the Lore you've added to it with the characters not being allowed to leave. And that mysterious new character with all the different conversation bits depending on what you did in the funhouse? magnificent attention to detail! ^w^ and you can bet i'll keep downloading more and more updated versions of this game as i learn about em coming out and playing them till im spent! <3
The black screen is a bug. I think I've patched it so scene loading doesn't fail. It's a bug that's a bit outside of my control sadly. It's really hard to pin this bug down cause it's non-deterministic, manifests in different ways, and is seemingly tied to network speeds.
The LST not dropping for parasite scenes is a temporary feature. I decided to leave it until there was more to do in the game.
A back-to-back orgasm mechanic would be a good addition. I have plans for events that automatically trigger under various conditions as well.
And, thank you for your interest! I've got a lot more in store~
ow wow, i never even realized the black screen for the bathroom was a bug! i only tried it once on the webpage version and when it happened, i figured it was there on purpose and downloaded the latest version to re-play on my laptop. the way the text boxes and 'next' buttons were still there made it seem more like a purposely blacked-out scene, sorry for assuming that it was! ^^;
well i can say that i have not run into it on the downloaded version even once yet (specifically Windows downloaded developer version) and i specifically have been re-triggering the bathroom release scenes A LOT, cause theyre hot as fuck <3
gonna continue playing this for the awesome scenes for quite awhile ! ~ ~ <=3
seriously looking forward to watching and helping this game progress as much as i can! if i spot any other glitches i'll post em here
oh and one more thing, do you have a Tip Jar set up anywhere? other than the one where i can tip when i download this game?
I just want to say, that it is quite a good game and all. And I'm not really one that's even into parasites and insects and stuff, yet you've gotten me intrigued to play this. ^^
If there was one adjustment that I would make to this though, it'd be the first minigame that you do in this. -w-# Nearly smashed my computer because the reticle wouldn't stay still for squat. I mean, I understand the mechanic behind it with the slight "Carnival games are always rigged" kinda cliche if you were intending for that, but just trying to get to 50 pts has to have been by far more infuriating than playing Call of Duty against a bunch of hackers (Literally, seeing through walls + aim botting)
But all in all, I like it, it's pretty subtle and I can definitely see a fun interactive game from this. I hope that you keep up the great work and keep us all up to date for what's to come!
He's currently planning for an update for this releasing on the 28th, best place to read the Devlog for this is on his Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/qwaxilixard/posts
should give a pretty good idea of whats coming next for this awesome little game ^w^
Hey just played the latest update! ^w^ and boy that anal millipede addition is hot as hell!
that pull-out minigame for the anal bug is pretty difficult i gotta say, but not impossible. it took me about 4 tries before i figured out how to move the mouse to pull properly without just making the guy cum and let the anal-pede slip back down. it's definitely possible but not easy, and i doubt a new player to the game would figure out exactly how to succeed without re-loading saves and trying again multiple times to get the movement right. if more people have issues with beating it than just me, i'd suggest simply increasing the timer before the bug slips out of the player's hands, give them more time to figure out how to wiggle the mouse to pull out in time with the player character's lust.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
oh and i found a weird glitch, the "Pull it out!" minigame for the Funhouse Dick-millipede seems to be glitched in the newest version and stuck on the final part/image where the bug has already been pulled all the way out, rather than the gradual pull-out that takes a few sequences of the quick-time game.
when you try to pull it out, it activates the minigame , but while the click-target is traveling across the bottom of the window, the game plays the entire pulling-out animation regardless of whether you accurately hit it or miss it. if you hit it properly the game reads the text for pulling it out after just ONE QT game, skips the other three-or-so. if you miss it the game reverts to the picture-sequence of the millipede crawling down into your dick as usual.
tried it on two saved files and a couple times on brand-new games from scratch, just to make sure, and it happened every time on the newest version.
double-checked the scene by booting up the previous version of the game and re-playing the dick-pull-out game, and it worked properly with no scene-skipping or glitches, so this only appears to be happening to me in the most recent version
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
oh and one more thing, is there a way to delete a save for this game? i'm kinda building up quite a few of them where i save in front of something to test it out or just to re-play scenes i find to be extra spicy. but especially as the game updates and seems to carry saves over from the earlier versions, deleting a few of the redundant save files will definitely come in handy! ^w^
version info: Windows Build, Developer Version, most recent version (not sure where to find the version number at the moment ^^; ) downloaded 11/30/21
Thank you for the feedback, I'll probably tune the minigame some. It seems like people are getting it, but know I need some extra hints to show how the game works.
Turns out I had the AnimatedSprite used for that seen set to the wrong frame. I ported over a bunch of assets to a new unified system and accidentally messed up some settings. It's an easy fix and I'll post a fix to Patreon.
Currently, you have to access your "%APPDATA%\Godot\app_userdata\Chitinous Carnival" folder to delete saves. Updating the save screen is one of the "boring, but important" changes I want to work on.
ahh thank you, wasnt sure where to find the files in my computer until now! ^w^ im not the most computer-literate person in the world and didnt want to risk deleting the wrong thing in my files ^^;
i'll re-download the fixed version from your patreon when i get the chance, i really love that scene and actually i love ALL the minigames for trying to pull the bugs out or brush them off, and i LOVE the thing you mentioned in your devlog where there might be instances where the various parasites might randomly jump you or try to infest you from your inventory!
especially where right now if the player pulls out at the funhouse and successfully removes the millipede from his dick, he then becomes too cautious to want to open the bag of bugs and the millipede ball. having to make him need to fight off random infestations as he continues through the carnival in a quest to use all his tickets without getting infested and corrupted into lusty hedonism sounds like soo much fun! ^w^
i really like the idea of stuff happening to the Player's friend as well <3 why be the only one having fun turning into a living brood-incubator for various sex-bug infestations when you can drag a friend down with you too! ^w^ <3
god i have so many sexy fantasies revolving around the Friend character, not gonna clog up this comment with all of them though lol, i shall eagerly await future updates to see where you go next with this delicious little game! ^w^

Hey, just found your game recently, and while i can't support you monetarily, i'm liking what i'm seeing in the freee version thus far! Just a few quesions tho:
Will there be many non-bug scenes in the future? As i can see that bugs are you main forte, if i can call it that.
Is the friend gonna be involved in scenes with the protag?
Is the choice to step into the doorway upside-down just for fun, or does it have a function?
I hope you keep safe and financially stable in these times, best of luck!
Will there be many non-bug scenes in the future?
Probably have a some, but the bug scenes will be the main stay.
Is the friend gonna be involved in scenes with the protag?
Yes, but I'm working on make the core of the game more stable first
Is the choice to step into the doorway upside-down just for fun, or does it have a function?
Oh, that was just for a bit of fun. It felt a little lifeless not to include it.
I hope you keep safe and financially stable in these times, best of luck!
Thank ya! That's going to be my goal for 2022.
the Foodtrucks are currently under development/no content available yet in all the updates/versions of the game ive played so far. the next updates i remember Quan was talking about are gonna be to the core infestation mechanics of the game, and adding another carnival game other than quickshot, so im not sure when the other areas like the food trucks and the boardwalk/pier are gonna see more content.
can't wait to see what kinda kinky sexyness he comes up with for those areas <3 im hoping those food stalls will fill the player's belly with something more than just food if you pick the right meal option <3 <3 <3
no exact date according to the developer log from what i can see: https://www.patreon.com/posts/peak-at-progress-61610962
best place for his devlogs for CC are on Quan's Patreon so thats what ive been following lately https://www.patreon.com/qwaxilixard/posts
Nah, there is no hiatus (Tho, I have taken some breaks with other projects). I am currently working on a new content thus month. I don't know when the next public update will role out. But, when it does it'll be a big one.
Also, I got derailed by job searching. It basically ate up all my development plans for Winter 2021. However, Spring is here, the days are getting longer, and my energy and mood are impoving.
I can't figure out how to make a post, so I'll post it here
This is very gross and horrifying to me, but I didn't come here to kink shame, I came here to share that this game has made me realize I love this concept in a horror or action game, because you are so helpless with insects, you have an insect in your cock and trying to get into your urethra and there's not much you can do at that point, realistically good luck grabbing a worm without crushing it or letting it slip away or quickly go all the way inside in one go. Or with spiders, you are outnumbered and it's horrifying. Can even be in the mouth too or the ears. Insects are this threat that unlike others, can do a lot of things to any part of your body and you are helpless
Even if this grosses me out, I want to follow the development of this game, it's just the first time I had heard of something like this and I like it. Usually when I find a fetish I dislike, I want to learn to like it, it's just something I like to do. I tried to like this, but I can't, I just have too many bad memories about insects, if I didn't have those memories I could probably enjoy it the same way many people did. I do like some giant insects though (like, bigger in height than a human being)
Just asking, is there a guide for current process? I am struck at the Quickshot without any advancement.
travelling/waiting only made the friend pop up, indicating me back to quick shot.
I tried losing, winning big and small for the minigame, but there are no indication of moving forward.
inspecting the items only prove to be futile, as i am indicated to do more exploration first.
I guess i am dumb, but how do i get to the fun house, or anywhere?
Edit: The bug only occur to me when playing on win-64. I tried to download it 3 times with no vails. try win 32 if you have similar problem like me.
currently there isnt any kind of infestation that stays in the dick/urethrea. the three that are available travel to the balls, ass/guts, and bladder(or is it prostate?) so while there is an X-ray for the penis, there isnt anything actively wiggling around inside there while you're walking about, beyond the initial infestation and the bathroom expulsion scenes that is.
the ball and bladder infestations certainly enter through the player's penis, but they both nest further inside. i'm honestly looking forward to anything Quanzillan is planning for something that actively stays and crawls around inside the urethra as it multiplies and dangles from the tip <3 <3 but that remains to be seen as his last dev post makes it sound like he's gonna be focusing on doing overhauls on the game mechanics and storyline for the time being. so might be a wait before theres more new content
I think Zill has been rebuilding the foundations for the dialogue system.
Hi,
Just wanted to give a quick update. For those that follow me on twitter or hang around the discord, you have likely already heard the news. Starting November, I'll be working on Chitinous Carnival (and art in general) full-time for the next few month.
I've decided to leave my chaotic day job. It has been draining me physically and mentally. Furthermore, it made doing any sort of creative work challenging. Moreover, I've become dissatisfied slaving away for a startup that's starting to feel like a sinking ship.
So given my current financial standings, I'm taking the opportunity to work for myself. I have no idea how long this will last before I need to find something again. However, that's a bridge I'll cross when (or if) I get to it. Thanks for all your support an patience, - Quan Zillan
Keep doing you, Zill. It would be cruel to release anything during no nut november though. Please have mercy.

Very much not dead, just need to know where to look for news.
please god tell me this is still being worked on because I just found it on android and can't find anything about how to actually play. I get to the point where you try to leave but can't and then I just can't do much. I can go to all the areas and redo the fun house but I can't interact with anything else and the fun house scene alone got me embarrassingly intrigued. I want more bugs in dicks :(
Honestly, i'm not too fond of the game in all honesty, i kinda expected a bit more than just 2 measly minigames, 2 interactible items and a 2 stage cutscene in the funhouse
it seems like the game was more content, i might have even missed something (got all the rewards, did all the paths in the funhouse, spammed wonder and wait buttons like crazy, but there's just nothing to do :/
(note: that was on the free to play version, so it's expected for content to be non-existent but i'm still a wee bit disappointed
