Hello everyone! First off, I want to express my sincere gratitude for the incredible support and valuable feedback you've provided so far in the development of 'Breasting the Maze.'

I'm reaching out to hear your thoughts on some big changes I'm considering. Firstly, I'm looking into revamping the maze generation to fix crashing issues and add more dungeon and puzzle elements.

In addition to this, I'm contemplating a complete overhaul of the game's objective. While the highscore system has its charm, I agree that it may not have provided much depth.

 One idea I'm toying with involves introducing a new gameplay loop:

  1. Start your journey in a shop or over world.
  2. Dive into the maze to collect milk and grow your character's bust.
  3. Return to the shop to sell the collected milk and earn some coins.
  4. Use the money to purchase powerups, gear, and other items to aid you on your adventure.

Furthermore, I recognize the importance of a comprehensive tutorial to guide players through the game mechanics. and thus, I will make a tutorial level for players to learn the basics of the maze, and powerups!

Before implementing any major changes, I'll be focusing on fixing existing bugs and ensuring a smooth gameplay experience. 

Let me know your thoughts in the comments below!

I'd suggest having some upgrade that allows you to have a bigger bust with less slowdown from the weight

that is a great idea!

One of my favorite concepts from Video Games is Curse, you make the game harder but in exchange get more of WHATEVER you're looking for, whether it be milk or gold. I also think it'd be a good idea to make a bug thread and pin it so folks don't go making a new post each time they experience a bug.

Those are excellent ideas!

I love the game's premise so much! It seems very thematic to me for breast milk trails on the floor to act like a lure for the seeker/other enemies or hazards. Can't wait to see what you do with the game :D Also if you can find a way to stop the boobs from coming out of the character's back when smushed against things or turning it would be nice. Well done!

Based on what we have currently, I'd suggest that the main gameplay loop is "collect all the slime you can without getting caught be a milk fiend". The bigger you are when you reach the exit, the more you get for various upgrades. You already have a solid premise where bigger boobs make it harder to get through portions of the maze. And I think that's a good risk vs reward trade off.
