The OST for GS goes hard, I agree. Somebody had made a great remastered versions of the tracks and was sharing them online, so I picked a few of my favorites. Sorry it had to be a porn game you finally got to hear the tunes in.
So, I ended up patching the game a little bit. It should save your progress now and keep the extras menu for the dragon smut once you go through all the pedestal nonsense.
Now you should be able to keep ogling at the Boss Dragon and Drakes without having to slog through the game over and over, though you still need to do it at least once for the save file to happen.
Sorry, I don't think it's possible, unless you can somehow unpack the game file itself and pick it apart.
I lost all the Pico games I had made to a HDD failure not too long after I published this one and naturally I was dumb enough to compile the only game that survived online in a way where you can't view the source code.
I think I've got the code and assets lying around somewhere still, so technically I could. Though, the game's written in an older version of Godot so I would probably have to update a bunch of the code as well.
Maybe I'll look into it.
See if I can update the controls to be less asinine as well along the way and touch on some smaller issues nobody has probably even noticed, but which bother myself.
I've been trying to hone my half-assed modelling skills over the summer in the hopes of making more PS1 style smut.
It's a pain.
Been trying to be a lot more authentic to the games of its era, with proper polygon limits and what not. Though I'm granting myself certain liberties for finer details.
The models in this game are way way way over budget in complexity, hovering around 2,5k polygons which would be more suitable for a PS2 game really. Though, the complexity is in all the wrong places and doesn't show much so I suppose end justifies the means.
Low poly designs to me are about five times more difficult than any normal 3D modeling, especially since so much of the appeal would regularly be in texturing, which I absolutely blow ass at.
The next game, if I ever get any of the prototypes I've got into a playable state, will have better controls. Smoother with support for game pads as well.
Fully agree with you and the rest of the people about how painfully awful the controls are, even if by design.
I keep firing up the game from time to time and they are pretty horrible to deal with. I'm actually a little bit surprised the controls even work properly since the code for the game is a mess.
I tried to make the animations (even if they are very simplistic loops) squishy and wiggly enough. Would have made them more interactive and such if I hadn't been already struggling for time and figuring out how to "make stuff happen" on the go.
Partly feels like I used up and put all the creative energy I had into the project though. Been trying to refine what I learned and finding it difficult to get the same spark in.
This is such a late reply, but you need to stab her in the nose till she goes down and then circle behind her and hit the butt. Aim underneath the tail.
Yeah, it's not for everyone. I gave my game a go after several months and damn it feels awful to play all of a sudden. But it's nowhere as horrible as Shadow Tower or King's Field is... well, at least in some regards.
If I ever get off my lazy ass and manage to churn out a sequel, prequel or something of the similar sort worth the effort. There will be checkpoints and more regular controls.
Yeah, the game would require a complete re-write code wise and a lot of under the hood stuff that I wasn't really aware of when I put the game together.
At this point it would probably just be easier making a completely new game along the same style instead of trying to parse any enhancements or larger fixes into this one. Haha.
Sorry, can't really improve on this game even if I wanted to. The code and all the assets are long since gone. Could always make a sequel of sorts with actually good gameplay mechanics. Don't hold your breath though, even if it's something I've been wanting to do for months now.
Hah, thanks. Good to hear you had fun with the game.
I had plenty of ideas to put into the game, but the time limit was only some 30 days after the Game Jam started, so I had to cut a lot of the things I wanted to include, especially since I was basically learning to code, apply and use the 3D models and use Godot as the game engine at the same time. Most of the gripes I had from that went into the commentary orbs.
The last boss is all about patience really. Her attacks are very easy to avoid if you know what you're doing. Even the ranged fire ball thingies are mainly just there to make the player block or spend stamina needlessly. They can all be avoided by simply strafing left or right.
I could have paced the fight differently in the end, since she originally had way more attacks planned, but I kind of just ran out of time to include it all in a way where everything blended together in a satisfactory manner.
Any adult themed games I'll be working on in the future will most likely have stuff like galleries etc. if it makes sense to have one. They're not difficult to implement at all.
What really is more difficult to me beyond anything coding related is coming up with ideas that can be made into a game that would be fun to play.
I've prototyped a few ideas ranging from more dungeon dwelling for dragon pussy to survival stuff in the midst of post apocalyptic monsters, but figuring out an engaging game loop is the really difficult part.
I'm probably not going to update the game any further, but any new projects will keep the data saved so people don't have to keep replaying the game to access any extras/unlockables etc.
If you find the "special pedestal" and exhaust all the dialogue from it until you get the repeating dialogue about voices being stopped, you need to beat the boss and go through the credits back to the main menu.
You then get an Extras menu where you can play all the sex animation scenes again if you so wish. But, since the game has no save feature of any kind for the data in it, if you close the game and restart it, you'll have to unlock the menu again.
Should just be able to unpack the .exe file and run it normally. I can't say why it wouldn't run. Could be your antivirus software is preventing the file from running, could be I've messed up something while compiling the game into an executable. It should run normally on Windows 10 and 11 as far as I'm aware.
It's straight stuff only. No male drakes in the dungeon, no option to pick the player's gender either. Mostly due to the time limit while building the game for the Jam.
The spheres are just lore objects pretty much. The rooms don't really have any specific function to themselves beyond hitting the enemies in the face.
It's not explained anywhere, but you must activate the defeated enemies to open the gate in the second room, if the closed portcullis is the thing you're referring to. A bit of an oversight on my part.
Sadly no, keyboard only. I didn't code in any controller inputs.
Something I'll make sure to include in any future games I might put together, especially since a controller would work very well for this type of games.
There's a hint for it in one of the blueish pedestals. Though, it's not very direct and you can miss it too, since the room is not in the "critical path."
No. It should be enough to cycle through the dialogue till you get the message about the voices having stopped. Once that happens, beating the boss and skipping the end credits should do the trick.
It's always possible though that I've goofed with the code and it's not working properly in all situations. But I couldn't produce any issues with the Extras unlock myself while testing it out.
I should probably mention, that closing the game reverts everything back to default since it doesn't store any of the data in any outside files for later. So if you close the game and restart it, you'd naturally not have the menu either.
Sequel or a remake is definitely not out of the question. I kind of want to make a "better" version of this game once I've gotten a firmer grasp on developing games. I think the idea I had here was pretty decent and not trying to do it better would be a crime against humanity.
A sequel or a remake would naturally have all the more bling with galleries, sex poses, enemy variety and so on.
I've been prototyping new things, but it's anybody's guess when you'd actually see anything playable here.
I had butt stuff planned out for the boss dragon, but ran out of time to animate and set it up.
But now that you mention it, yeah. It is kind of odd I completely disregarded anal for the Drake enemies. Something that I've got to rectify in the future projects for sure!
I was trying to emulate playing on older consoles, back when you would have to look up and down by pressing buttons on a controller. Such as R1 and L1 on a PS1. Back when analog sticks didn't exist yet or weren't used prominently.
I just didn't include input mappings for a controller which in hind sight was a bit of a dumb-dumb decision. But personally I think the game plays better on the keyboard anyway.
