Alright give us a full blast of feedback, we want to build the best game possible, so lets hear your thoughts!
A lewd Tower Defense game! Fend off waves of Coomers and build your defenses! 路 By
A couple things I noticed while playing were:
-Weapons sometimes disappear after setting an object down. Kept pressing "2" and "3" until they reappeared.
-When obelist gets destroyed and if the player is zoomed in at the same time, player's zoom stays maxed out at respawn. (I have to hold right click to zoom back out but upon release of right click, goes back to max zoom.)
-When the area is congested with zombies, reloading weapons brings the games framerates down from 60 FPS to 1-5 FPS.
Things I'd like to see:
-Customize key bindings.
-Improved optimization.
-More weapons. (throwables and traps too :D)
-Weapon customization.
-Character customization.
-More Characters
-A separate H-Scene mode. (wide range of fetishes too ;D)
-Special zombies. (Some ideas: Boss tank type zombies, sprinting zombies, wall climbing zombies, etc.)
-Bigger maps (It'd be a plus to add things like zip linings, teleporters, slides, etc. Just some ideas!)
This game plays good for a prototype and I can see potential if it becomes a polished enough. Keep it up! :)
It looks interesting. Reminds me of Seed of the Dead. Only problem I have now is that I am not sure I want to give it a try without knowing what the porn looks like. It has a Hentai tag, so I assume there is going to be porn in it. Some pictures, like the ones on the games page on the right about the porn would be nice. Just so I know what I am getting into here.
EDIT: Oh wait, I just read an answer to another comment that says no lewd stuff yet. xD In that case I will wait for the lewd stuff to be implemented. ^^
...Doesn't this mean I don't get to see even samples of the lewd stuff, that one only will ever know what smut there is after paying? This feels problematic. I generally don't pay for smut games without knowing just what kind of porn I will get. I hope there will be simple sample videos or at the very least images, otherwise it isn't interesting for me. Too much of a risk to invest without knowing if it will be worth it. No offense meant of course, I merely like to see some smut first before I make a decision. Porn comes down to taste after all and if it isn't to my taste I would like to know it beforehand.
I'm surprisingly obsessed with this game, I spent some time playing the prototype last night, and found myself having a lot of fun with it!
Here's some things I really like about this game:
1. Super Fun concept, I haven't seen that many tower defense games where the player can defend it themselves, the only ones that come to mind are Orcs must Die! and the Sanctum series, this style of gameplay really keeps the player invested, while normal tower defense games can become a bit boring once you're optimized.
2. I love the fact almost every object in the mall map can be used as a barricade. I was really impressed with this feature, it adds a layer of immersion to the game by seeing what you can do with shopping carts, clothing racks, benches, gym equipment, the list goes on! Seriously, this feature is a kickass addition.
3. The character movement is SLLLLLIIIICKKKK I love the dude's animation, and the fact he can climb over stuff is pretty impressive, even while he's carrying something. Good shit. Additionally, I love the fact you just throw the tower gals over your shoulder to move them.
4. The in between waves music is great, did you make it yourself?
Here's some features and issues I've found that I think, if addressed would take this game to the next level. (please let me know if these features are already in the purchasable version:
1. Ability to move placed props, I've been running a "Rule of 5" challenge with the game to try and make it harder, (5 units, 5 barricades, 5 ammo, 5 medkits), and not being able to move barricades is kinda annoying.
2. Sometimes I will get stuck using the rifle, I wanna use the pistol sometimes, man looks baller as fuck shooting with one hand.
3. Interacting with buttons/crates is very finicky, and you have to be standing in a very specific place to buy a unit in the portal room or pick up a crate (Well, you can move a crate using the left mouse key, but I like the animation of picking it up.)
4. What's with the "grab" prompt when close to an enemy? It doesn't seem to work, and I think a melee kill animation( if an enemy is at low enough health) instead would be a cool feature to add.
5. Hidden equipment in the stores of the malls boosts the stats of your towers, and/or is a hub for buying traps/weapons, as I found myself flush with cash after about 3 rounds.
6. Predicted Path of the enemies can shift randomly, not sure what causes this, but it can really mess up a tower/barricade setup, especially if you're unable to move barricades.
7. Obelisk, and enemy health bars.
8. More variety in girl design?
That's all I can really think of right now, I would LOVE to see this game grow into a pioneer in the porn tower defense genre, especially since it's something different than your average visual novel. I love a good visual novel, but we need more porn game variety; we got our side scrollers, we got our visual novels, we got our RPGs, WE NEED DIFFERENT GENRES!!!!! That's why I love this game so much and want it to grow, to show that a porn game doesn't have to be a visual novel to make it, and also to have something different to whack it to. Best of luck yall.
Hey cheers! Let me run though the list you've made.
1. Omd and sanctum are our inspiration along with dungeon defenders.
2. Yeah this feature we worked on the most. Very time consuming to get it right.
3. The locomotion was the main reason we built this game. We had been working on this system for another game and figured we could use it here. Glad you like it.
4. No the music is royalty free.
Feedback.
1. We are working on a system for this atm. Not sure how it will work as we are testing still but it's being addressed.
2. The game is currently missing the weapon upgrade system. You purchase guns from the store, the quality is random. It's likely we will just offer two primary weapon slots. So shotguns, rifles, SMG, snipers, explosives, pistols. Maybe melee, likely not though.
3. Yes we need to tweek this, it's tied to the locomotion of the game so we need to make it way easier to interact and be more precise about it.
4. It's a hold over from our in development game for a sneak attack. It will be removed from HTC.
5. There will be a lot more variety in the store and zombies will actively attack barricades soon.
6. Right now if you make the path too long the zombies will find another easier path. It's not very clear or easy to follow. We will work on it.
7. That is an interesting idea. We could try it.
8. We have on paper 30 total towers/girl designs. Baseball girl, business girl, pyro girl, solider girl, ninja girl, mechanic girl, etc.
Thank you for the kind words! I will pass your praises onto the dev team!
Ok. Let me point a few things out to you so you can see your own Red Flags. This is a wake up call because I chose to care.
1. Description says within:
A game made for a hentai game jam planned on being worked on only over the course of 2-3months!
2. This game has NO hentai in it whatsoever to this day on itch for the players!
"And you say it was made for a hentai Jam?. Wow, don't make me laugh. What a joke!"
3. Over a year ago...
Player: "When's the next update?"
Dev: "Soon."
365ish days ago...
Player: "How long till next update?"
Dev: "Soon"
361ish days ago...
Player: "Any update on this?"
Dev: "Just a little longer."
Let's fast forward now...
60ish Days ago...
Player: "Any Update on this?"
Dev: "Not at the moment, still taking out time with it. Updates will come."
(Still no up to date preview.) I could keep going...
Ok... so, WHEN!?
You know how infuriating that is at this point to see?. 馃ズ
See a pattern!?. You should!... 馃様
You know what else does this sort of thing?...
A SCAM!!!
All I see is excuse after excuse after excuse with NO progress or updates for over a year on a game that was said to "build this game out after the next two or so months". IT'S BEEN OVER A YEAR! That's a complete disregard the the games very description and goal.
HELLO, ANYONE HOME!?.
Are you getting what I'm saying?. 馃檮
(Ohhh, so I guess that means you're done with it already seeing as it has been over a year now! So you've been LYING to these people all along!? Where's the rest of the game you say exists!?.)
I have to ask,
Are you a scam artist?. A scammer?. Is that what you want to be and people to remember the dev team as?.
This whole thing now comes off as a scam to me.
Rhetorical questions btw, don't bother answering that with more bs words. You've repeated the same bs enough as it is. You're already a bad liar for now.
"Soon" was 9 months ago. I could have had a baby by now! :/ 1 year is NOT SOON.
Only future "actions" will redeem the outdated bs. STAY TRUE TO YOUR WORD!
CUT THE BS. LET THE PLAYERS TRY OUT WHAT YOU GOT AND SEE THE HARD WORK YOU SAY HAS BEEN DONE THUS FAR.
NO MORE EXCUSES.
AT LEAST FIX THE MISLEADING DESCRIPTION TO MORE ACCURATELY DEPICT THIS "TEEN" GAME IF YOU WON'T DO THAT!
Honestly, I'm more angry that you keep lying to the players than anything else. -_- And that's exactly what it looks like. You just keep repeating the same thing with nothing to show the players for it after all this time.
Glad I could point out the facts of how you look right now. Now it's up to you to listen or not. Just so you know... Knowing is half the battle.
You should also be aware if you keep it up and people will probably start reporting you for fraud. You don't want that. Believe me. And I'd hate to see it. There is so much of that going on these days. Enough is enough. 馃槬
I honestly think you have a really interesting little game here. But I also know how people are. And trust me, it looks bad as I hope you can now see, so you can fix it.
"I want this game to succeed. I want you to succeed. But you can't do that by not being honest especially with those that care about the project. Definitely the ones that pay."
If you don't want to give away the lewd version of the game away for free then just be honest and say so. But at least show some screenshots so people know that it exists and what they are getting when they buy the game. What's to come. Real updates and status reports. Not just vague text without proof. It's bad enough this game is posted in the adult section and it's not there with the rest of them yet.
A demo is much better though. People are likely to buy what they want to support. And the more you show them how good it is with honesty, the more likely they will support it. Everyone wins!
- "Absolute honesty is the best policy."
I hope you prove me wrong about you. 馃様This game shouldn't have got pushed this long though. This letter wouldn't even exist if it hadn't.
You can do better. The real question is, will you?. Will the team?
Just trying to wake you up and look out for the development team.
This looks like a enjoyable game after all. I'd hate to see it get taken down because people aren't getting what they were paying for and to see. I hope you care. As you should be able to see by my passionate letter, I do. That's what real passion looks like. It's not mine that matters though, It's yours and the teams,
Where's your fire? Put it in the game and share it.
If this touched you emotionally in any way, that's how you know what's the truth. It's not always easy to take in or to accept. Neither do we always want to listen to it. But it will make a better person of those of us who can process it and can handle it if we do.
The next time you hear from me... I hope it's in a review of how good and fun your enjoyable looking game was. And that I'll have nothing negative to say but only praises and appreciation for what you and the team have done.
Will it matter... probably not. But that doesn't stop me from trying to make the world a better place even if it's one person at a time. All they need do is know when to listen.
"At least I tried. Can't say that I didn't."
