Hi its me again I was just wondering, the first game screenshot here mentions h cup size in the character creator but the larges cup size in the game is E, I was just wondering if something was wrong with the file so you decided not to use it or something?
Hey! Awesome to see you again, so theres been a couple body parts that were taken out which you only get via taking curses, or particular relics. Same way you mentioned the vore via relics system before.
Then there's also plans for body transformation "stores", similar how you can get a hair cut.
That said on the curse side of things, they're in the middle of a overhaul so arent in right now.
If you set the language to Japanese, it will revert to English on this screen and you will not be able to proceed any further (you will not be able to click the Confirm button).
P.S. I'm not sure if this is a bug related to the language settings, but the player's action options are no longer displayed during battle, and I can no longer progress in the game.
It also makes it very difficult to report bugs since you won't be able to take screenshots of the game (that behavior is disabled).
I've been in a few battles, and I get stuck 4 times out of 5.
This seems to happen frequently when switching scenes. I think the scene switching command isn't being executed properly for some reason.
Perhaps the method of automatic translation should be refined. I think that even the internal data gets translated, which causes problems...
...I recommend that you, the creator, try playing the game in Japanese.
There are so many glitches with the combat that you can't progress through the game properly...
Depending on the method, when auto translating from another language to Japanese, the labels and names of the internal flags may also be translated, causing the game to break. For example, say there is a flag named "Battle Processing 001". This is automatically translated and the flag name changes to "戦闘処理001" in Japanese automatic translation. However, since the processing site is trying to refer to "Battle Processing 001", the game will not work properly.
I don't know if this is happening in your game, but if you use machine translation and are using Japanese, this is a bug that can occur, so I wanted to report it...
I’m thinking given the nature of the game I’ll be adding in a couple game settings regarding that. How tough it is to escape etc. Having more permanent options out side of just fights, and then the player can decide how punishing it gets.
Thats actually in the works, been in discussions with some of the discord members on the best approach. Going with each NPC will have a preference to be in a monogamous or poly relationship. Of course, just cause its a preference doesn't me you cant "encourage" it ;)
Hello. I'm Japanese, so I want to play in Japanese, but when I set the language to Japanese, the screen always goes black when I select New Game, and I can't go any further.
Perhaps you've set all the text in the game to Japanese? Depending on your production environment, if you do that, internal things like flags, variables, and label names will also be automatically translated into Japanese, which could completely break the game. (This often happens in production environments similar to html.)
Hello! Sorry about that. I're recently been updating how localisation works. Currently adding in 4 more languages. But before the next build Ill make sure to run through all of them to make sure they work. That should be out in 2 weeks for the public.
I've recently started, so forgive me if this is obvious for some: where can I fill up the canteen/get a drink to replenish thirst. After a few short playthroughs, I've always died of thirst.
Hey! So the only place I believe in that build is at Zeph Central. Should be a well you can use. If you do have any issues like that you can also disable thirst.
Just because it’s a recent addition it’s not very fleshed out. In the next build there’s a lot more places you can do it. And sleeping at an inn will also automatically refill them.
hey, I recently found your game and I am interested in seeing how you will develop your game in the future and I have some recommendations for future development over time and would like your opinion;
I would like to see more coloration options in the future, maybe you can add the option to color just the hair tips a different color or a strand of hair, I would love to see the customizations visually effect the character more, maybe longer hair options, and maybe you can have it so that the Relics have customization options described in their item descriptions and to add those customization options the character would have to swallow them:
you want to be able to vore? swallow a vore relic! want 2 more arms? Swallow a relic for it! want a fat gecko tail and scales? swallow relics for them! want to regenerate your lost limbs? swallow a relic for it? want to look like you just came out of a alien vs predator movie... well, I guess you can swallow a few to get something similar?? want to look like a human centipede made out of multiple female torsos stacked on top of each other with a split jaw, 4 black and red eyes and cracked skin?? uuhhhh???
"human centipede made out of multiple female torsos stacked on top of each other with a split jaw, 4 black and red eyes and cracked skin" I feel like you've thought about this one a little too much haha.
On the colouring side, I'm at the point of working with some artists to really nail down how the player characters displayed so Ill keep things like custom tips in mind though! Anything like that, feel free to mention, its something that's easier to add in early than to have to retrofit later on.
"easier to add in early than to have to retrofit later on." on that note maybe you can add nail coloring? I'm trying to think of things that can be colored different colors like scales and fur... maybe different horn types? I do love horns! What else? Oh yeah! I would recommend looking into RahiMew's "Broken Dreams Correctional Center"'s character creator it has a nice few options.3:
Should I try thinking of something else? like maybe you can add the different kinds of vore types as just temporary copied and renamed buttons of the kill button? or how for tail vore access on any tail type you can add 3 different tail mouth types(player can choose between "o" shaped mouth hole opening, (+)shaped mouth hole opening, or a human mouth shaped hole opening?
During the orphanage tutorial, one of the quests requires clearing three groups of cockroaches... I found and defeated one group after entering the boys bathroom the first time. I have been unable to find anymore cockroaches since, days later, after walking from room to room and exploring the entire map, still no more cockroaches in the orphanage...
Hey! That area/quest was recently added so still has some issues. Some people find them immediately and others are like you and never find the other two. They will be a new build coming out in 1-2 weeks that should fix most of the issues though.
You are also able to skip that quest, only ends with giving the player some money.
Hey! I've gotten some mixed feedback on mobile, Ive tried to make it as dynamic as possible but if theres any UI that really seems to break, just let me know what phone or resolution you're using.
Thanks! It’s an iPhone 15, no clue about the resolution. You swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to the Home Screen, and there’s an indicator bar right on top of the button to leave the orphanage🤣. And also the continue button at the very beginning. And the buttons are very small for fingers, bit hard to hit. Practically unplayable in portrait mode, as most games with ‘map traversal?’ (I don’t know what it’s called) are on phones, but switching back and forth does help with the aforementioned button pressing.
Other than that, everything works pretty good, bit hard to understand what I’m supposed to be doing, the white font blends in with the beige banners which is made even harder to read thanks to the small screen, and you can’t sleep to recover stamina in the orphanage?! Aren’t you supposed to live there?
That got long fast. Just small things, really.
I hadn’t even started playing when I posted the comment, but it had a notice that the game was not designed to run on my device below the run game button, hence the comment.
I really appreciate you reaching out like this and stuff (tearing up a bit as I’m writing this, I don’t talk to people much, it feels nice). Thanks again!
I just realized everybody is going to be able to read that last bit. Oh well.
Im gonna be real, that might be one of the most wholesome things I've read in a long time. Hope everything's going well for you!
Yeah the game itself is still really early in development. Case in point, the bed being missing form the orphanage, even though I made sure all the dialogue hints that you can sleep there. I have an idea where I want it to go, but the reality is I'm not a designer, so I've mainly put it out there to get ideas on what ways to take the project. See what mechanics people love/hate. Ill say were still several months away from it feeling like an actual game. Oh and in the options if you enable the offsets it should move the UI away from the edges of the screen.
Ill also say if you did want to jump on the discord, I'm always down to listen to ideas/feedback or even just how's your day going.
Oh, I’m fine, thanks for the concern, (tearing up again) I just don’t really get out a lot and it makes me happy when people reply to my comments. Will check the settings.
it appears the browser version does not let you go past the tutorial. your stuck in the girls dormitory with no way out and the only option is to loiter.
Hey! Many others haven't had this issue, are you able to let me know if you played on a phone or anything? That said there were some big changes I made in the next build that should fix any issues there.
i would like to add more to this. every version of this even downloading it has this issue. you get to the tutorial or skip it and the ONLY option is to loiter.
Hey! Yeah I found a couple issues with it, when trying it out myself, they appear to be mostly fixed now. The joys of massive backend changes to a lot of the systems. The next build should be out this weekend for patrons, and then in 2 weeks for the public build.
One thing that would be nice in this game that we don't get a lot of in other games is the ability to hire creatures as companions, upsides and down sides all considered, you loose access to cities and towns with them in your party, but so long as you're careful and resourceful you can evolve your creature companions into capable allies for combat throughout the game, what do you think yoraphim.
Hey! Already on it haha! I think I've decided that you'll never really have a party that fights with with. but they'll come along help you carry things, give boosts to any survival aspects etc. And be there while setting up camp.
But more on the up and down sides of things, I'm planning to have essentially a faction system. Everyone belongs to a faction and they all have relations with each other. Join up with the bandits and suddenly everyone in town likes you a lot less. But you do get a new outpost on layer 1 and they wont attack you any more.
I do also plan for taming, but don't think it would be as influential. I guess people should react if you walk through town with a 2m tall dire wold though....
Hey..I can’t help but notice how am I supposed to poo/pee in the toilets? There isn’t any action for it only “Have some fun” even tho my character is already full.
Hey Zeka! Yeah its in the works. Unfortunately I dont have any good way to test the android builds. Im able to get some feedback from the community, but the last couple wouldn't even let you get past the main menu.
Hi is this on PC? If so you're able to delete the options file to hard reset it. It should be found in the AppData folder, although its sometimes hidden, just google search to find out how to enable it if so. Then at "AppData\LocalLow\YoraphimDev\The Unseen Depths"
And then just the OptionsData file. Hope this helps!
If you do reboot the game is it the same broken resolution? Only thing I can think is it didn't actually save then. But Ill double check if there may be any weird saving locations based on different platforms.
Yeah for sure! I havent decided about how much I was to lean into the mythical aspect, like vampires, werewolves, dragons etc. But there will be very similar creatures.
As for the capturing part, 100% yes. If you have played degrees of lewdity, I imagine it would be something very similar to the the wolves catching you, or Eden the hunter.
Hey! Yeah with the last update there should be something similar. Essentially instead of moving around via buttons, you can pick where to go on a map. Some areas are missing a BG image, but in the next update everything will have something.
Hey! Yeah that would be awesome! Its got alot of weirdness to it, but if you shoot me a message on the discord Im happy to show you what the back end looks like.
Hi Othorion, that would be awesome, thanks for the offer! I'm in the process of proofreading everything and making some big changes, but if you want to add me on Discord Ill reach out when its ready. Username: yoraphimdev
Hello, I wanted to let you know that the in-browser version of the game crashed for me. I can't exactly say where it crashed for me, but here is the message that popped up:
Hey! Thanks for that, haven't seen it before. Cant see the exact cause but I already have some ideas. I know the saving system could be problematic, but was hoping to push it off for a while. But Ill bump that up in priority!
1) Easy to get lost, especially in town, so having some kind of location picker would be useful so I could go straight to say the homeless shelter without remembering which steps gets me there. Especially important for finding the gondola again.
2) I like that most steps outside says -XX depth, which tells me I'm likely going in the right direction for combat and looting. The confusion though of getting to Stone Ark, and the only options then is a small +XX depth or +XXX depth by taking the gondola.
3) I didn't find much combat and the stuff I did, I didn't feel like I had many options. Sure there was sexual options, but in terms of fighting, had no abilities, no special moves, and no critical hit effects (ie stun, open wounds, severe combat debuff).
4) Wasn't very clear what I was supposed to do. Some kind of objectives menu of optional or required tasks to complete would be useful. Even if they are just tutorial tasks teaching you the ropes. But like I had little idea on how to get money, how to descend deeper than layer 1, how to find combat to actually fight (loitering didn't do anything) and what kinds of things can I do in town.
5) Weird how there is tabs for Skills and Sexperience, but nothing is there yet.
6) Didn't encounter any sex scenes. I found I could masturbate in toilets, but for what purpose, I don't know. I could attempt to do it in combat, but felt that with a sword I should use it.
7) Wasn't very clear in the shop the difference between briefs and tights. In inventory, one appears on her body and the other doesn't. And both of them had the same visual description, but equipping one of them did unequip her panties. Otherwise, never found any armor items, shields, or such forth to improve combat survival odds.
8) Encountered one plant thing, two wolves, and one more wolf. Killing the plant, gave no loot or option to loot. Killing one wolf gave no option to loot, the other I wounded and had the option to loot and then kill. Last wolf was I think asleep? As I could loot, but not kill them?
9) Hunted for relics found enough to buy basically everything in the shop. Hope there will be other purposes for money later.
10) Noticed that when setting up camp, I can't urinate/poop in the field. Have to find a toilet. And finding food to eat wasn't possible, so if I didn't have rations I'd starve. No berries, fruit, or vegetables to be found anywhere. Can't even go "Delicious in the Dungeon" and turn monsters into food.
I'll keep an eye on this one. It has some elements I like, and interested to see what happens with it.
I do hope for:
-> Anal/Oral, as those are my preferences. So having an option to disable vaginal content be nice.
-> Oviposition and alternative pregnancies (ie anal egg impregnation) and an option to just disable vaginal pregnancies.
-> Ability to disable/weaken a target so you can rape them, on your terms.
"Anal/Oral, as those are my preferences. So having an option to disable vaginal content be nice." Both of these sex types will be coming soon, and thanks for letting me know. Me in my infinite wisdom went straight to female/female togglable, male/male togglable, and then stopped there.
With that though, are you also interested in a slider that lets you say how many NPC's are female/male?
Excluding the bugs, slowly working my way through them. I think the best way to describe the game at this point is its as wide as an ocean but as deep as a puddle. At the moment you'll find a lot of systems that have a single piece of content. Skills for example, there is one skill in the game and its for running. I never wanted to add more incase they get replaced or redone later on.
That said, moving forwards Im splitting my time up for the next build into the most requested feature, at the moment a map for navigation, bug fixes, and a focus on a piece of content, for the next build it'll be NPC interactions.
A percentage option that a male character is turned into a female character or vice versa. So if you only wanted female characters, then set the percentage of 100% of males turned into females. And for maximum randomness have percentages active for both.
Unless what you had in mind was that we could specify changing the sex of specific NPCs in the game or the sex of the monsters; ie you only encounter female wolves or male minotaurs or futanari demons.
Well to be fair, its like the first major release of early prototype gameplay, so its expected that things are missing. Its just that usually when they are missing, the tabs for them don't exist at all.
My philosophy with skills is to have as few as possible, that covers as many actions as possible. Like in Elder Scrolls Oblivion, where Athletics covers running and swimming. Or Acrobats that covers jumping and falling. Or you could even merge the two together so that Athletics covered running, jumping, swimming and falling. That way too, doing any of those actions builds up that skill, making it overall easier to level up.
A map may or may not be easier to implement than a sub menu that lets you pick your destination, if you've visited it once already.
If you can make it available for iPhone that would be amazing because the run game option on itch.io takes upwards of an hour to load on iphone and a decent internet connection
Hey! Yeah I'm looking at getting an android build out soon, but iPhone will be a while off, just because the build side of things is way more complex. But plans to have it one day
Please add an option to turn off f/m content. Also, I beg you add a minimap, I kept getting lost while trying to play.
There is an issue where if your character has a penis and a vagina the vagina keeps gets referred to as penis during battles, and I don't know if it's a problem with just my game but when my character was wearing male clothing options use of the vagina was not available during battles
Never occurred to me that m/f would be something people wanted taggable, so thanks for letting me know, Ill be sure to add that in!
And yeah right now it just looks at the "primary" genitals for everything, I haven't set up it to look at the secondary. But I'm in the process of adding that in, should be next build or the one after that!
Been playing a bit of this, as of late. It's looking pretty good, so far, IMO. My question is: Is anal possible? I imagine it would be, since 2 Genital options are available. I imagine it would be an option in a later update.
I also wonder if you plan to add sliders for legs, and butt. Always wanted a PAWG as a creatable option.
Hey! Yeah anal is defiantly going to be added! Just a matter of writing out the descriptions for it! And will have leg and ass sliders at some point. If you think its worth it, I'm happy to add in the text and have NPCs react to it, you just wont see it visually?
Ah, I see. That makes sense. Would love to see some BBWs, too.
Also, one thing I think the game would benefit greatly from is a fetish/kink/preference system. Basically, all NPCs, Enemy NPCs, and your own character have a thing that says what type of sex and foreplays they like, such as one NPC liking anal and oral, but disliking vaginal sex, or another NPC liking bigger butts, yet disliking big breasts. This would not only effect how enemies rape your character, but also effects what your character begins to like more after the rape is done.
Two good examples of this type of system is BDCC and Lilith's Throne.
This game has a solid foundation and I really enjoyed what you did with it so far. I think aslong as you continue to develop it, this is gonna turn out fantastic.
I know its in its early staged, but I would like to ask, will our paper doll character react to: Damage, i.e blood, scratches, bites? Will it react to being impregnated by showing a big belly? Will it react to being testicularly impregnated via the ovipositor by showing swollen balls?
I think visual changes to the model like this would be awesome and be a good representation for the player to see whats happened to their character. Anyways best of luck, ill be watching!
Thanks! Been heaps for feedback past couple ideas so been getting some really great ideas!
Defiantly want to get what you mentioned in, even looking at adding slight animations, like swaying to reacting to being hit. Main bottle neck is just the art side of things. Side note I have never heard of being testicular impregnated before, but Ill add it to the list! Any other ideas feel free to throw them out there!
I've gotten this far using AI art as a placeholder, but its pretty much reached its limit. Good news is I've gotten some help form the community with doing art, and I'm working with an artist so should have some things come in next couple weeks.
Not at this point. Pretty much if you lean more towards a masculine or feminine it'll use that particular body. But I can plan to add in an manually override, and have the text also reflect that! Though no idea what the ETA on that would be.
Hey! Yeah its something I've heard a couple times before. Theres like 3 more UI's (Dedicated crafting, full dialogue, sex stats) I need to implement. And then I'm going to be checking out the mobile phone side of things. So probably next 2-3 months you should expect a fix for it, just a much lower priority for it while mechanics are still added in.
Ah got it! Yeah going to have a lot of that in. Some will be coming in the form of curses which will be random, or relics that let you pick and choose. While others might be gained via traits, say 30 days as a virgin makes you more angelic(Halo, wings etc).
this is interesting, but rather clearly needs some work-
just as an example the fucking system needs an addition to allow one to reclaim the usage of their own body parts, particularly once the NPC they were used on or who took control of them is gone or dead- though having the ability to do so before they are would be nice as well.
this also comes in the form of crashing, a fairly common issue where the player has either killed an enemy dead- or just generally had a bad roll following fighting an over developed bonsai.
I would also suggest poking at the 'full screen' buttons if possible, the 'bigger' blue one works and puts you in full screen, the smaller transparent one on top of it does not, instead centering the game with a black border taking up 40-45% of the screen (firefox, screen resolution of 1680 x 1050)
An "over developed bonsai" This has to be one of my new favourite things haha.
But yeah 100% agree, alot of the things you mentioned should be fixed on the next update. Im kinda doing a clean slate, focused less on new systems and instead fixing a bunch of softlocks, missing translations etc, just to get it back to a more playable state. But its going to be alot of back and forth at least this early in development, oh lets add in pregnancy, now the UI's broken and the sex scenes need code changes, well more bug here we go! So now and at least for a a couple more months expect it to be in an unstable state.
And on the fullscreen. probably lower on my list of priorities but thank you so much for including the browser and resolution, things like that help so much!
Yeah I totally agree. It’s been useful to use a placeholder to show off the systems and get a better sense of what I need, but it’s pretty much at its limit now. Even then new clothing system needed me to just draw something up in paint haha.
With that said I’m currently in the process of figuring out the best way to replace it all.
Hi; There's a small problem on mobile, and the problem is that i cant see anything that's bellow the "Continue" button on the main screen for reference
There's alao lag issues, but these are the norm for mobile
Unfortunately at this time I'm not really focused on the mobile dev side of things. Still very early in development. So its in the if it works great! Otherwise Ill get to it later. I do try my best to make sure that on PC it runs correctly though.
But on the timeline side of things going to looking at optimising and building the UI to scale correctly in 2-3 months.

Hi its me again I was just wondering, the first game screenshot here mentions h cup size in the character creator but the larges cup size in the game is E, I was just wondering if something was wrong with the file so you decided not to use it or something?

Hi, thanks for letting me know. I dont focus too much on the localisation side of things.
I quickly pushed a hot fix that solves that issue.
Some UI will have "Missing String" displayed. Im working on a fix that will just swap that to the English default.
P.S. I'm not sure if this is a bug related to the language settings, but the player's action options are no longer displayed during battle, and I can no longer progress in the game.
It also makes it very difficult to report bugs since you won't be able to take screenshots of the game (that behavior is disabled).
I've been in a few battles, and I get stuck 4 times out of 5.

...I recommend that you, the creator, try playing the game in Japanese.

Interesting, I haven't heard that from any other players, but Ill check it out and see if I can find anything that might be related to it.
Depending on the method, when auto translating from another language to Japanese, the labels and names of the internal flags may also be translated, causing the game to break. For example, say there is a flag named "Battle Processing 001". This is automatically translated and the flag name changes to "戦闘処理001" in Japanese automatic translation.

I don't know if this is happening in your game, but if you use machine translation and are using Japanese, this is a bug that can occur, so I wanted to report it...
Thanks! I’ll actually check that out. I can think of a couple work around. So we’ll see how it goes.
I ran into the problem
.. man I love bugs haha.
But now I know there’s something wrong with the moth I’ll be able to focus there a lot more.
Am I The only person getting an error code when fighting the moth
Hey Bunny, Thanks for letting me know, I think I found the cause, at least for one soft lock, new build up in 10 mins
It needs multiple save files and auto save
Funnily enough it should work on the back end, just need to update the UI…
Oh and as for bondage, very much yes
Yay as long as you give a way out
If it's just temporary bondage (a monsters attack or something) you can ignore this
I’m thinking given the nature of the game I’ll be adding in a couple game settings regarding that. How tough it is to escape etc. Having more permanent options out side of just fights, and then the player can decide how punishing it gets.
Cool that would be nice. I wish I could give you financial help but I'm broke thanks for giving us a free version you're doing a wonderful job
I can't wait for you to get the sprites all working and clothing. will there be bondage?
...Can I make a harem?
Otherwise, this does look intersting.
Thats actually in the works, been in discussions with some of the discord members on the best approach. Going with each NPC will have a preference to be in a monogamous or poly relationship. Of course, just cause its a preference doesn't me you cant "encourage" it ;)
Making/managing a harem while exploring dungeons? Give me those 2 things and SOLD!
Plus, some subtle corruption to sway others to the lewd side? YES PLZ!
Also.
Did not know there was a discord.
Welp, as long as it's in the works.
Hello. I'm Japanese, so I want to play in Japanese, but when I set the language to Japanese, the screen always goes black when I select New Game, and I can't go any further.
Perhaps you've set all the text in the game to Japanese? Depending on your production environment, if you do that, internal things like flags, variables, and label names will also be automatically translated into Japanese, which could completely break the game. (This often happens in production environments similar to html.)
こんにちは！私は日本人なので日本語でプレイしたかったのですが、オプションで日本語にすると「新しいゲーム」を選んだ場合、画面が暗転したまま先に進めなくなります。
これはhtmlと似た制作環境で起こる可能性があります。変数やフラグ、ラベルなどの内部的なものまで日本語に変わってしまい読み込めなくなってしまうからです。
改善よろしくおねがいします。
Hello! Sorry about that. I're recently been updating how localisation works. Currently adding in 4 more languages. But before the next build Ill make sure to run through all of them to make sure they work. That should be out in 2 weeks for the public.
It seems there is a bug where if you have a water canteen, then try to cook raw meet while camping, it all turns into water refills?
Hmmm, cant just say that's actually a feature and you're some kinda of god?.....Dont worry thats one been fixed!
期待能夠擁有中文版本
您好，如果您願意，我可以新增機器翻譯版本
非常感謝!
I've recently started, so forgive me if this is obvious for some: where can I fill up the canteen/get a drink to replenish thirst. After a few short playthroughs, I've always died of thirst.
Hey! So the only place I believe in that build is at Zeph Central. Should be a well you can use. If you do have any issues like that you can also disable thirst.
Just because it’s a recent addition it’s not very fleshed out. In the next build there’s a lot more places you can do it. And sleeping at an inn will also automatically refill them.
Good day, could you please tell me how to go down to a lower level?
Hey! So right now the fastest way it you can go to the middle of the map, the grand pier. Otherwise there should also be a route to the west.
Just a note, at this point there is one one layer.
hey, I recently found your game and I am interested in seeing how you will develop your game in the future and I have some recommendations for future development over time and would like your opinion;
I would like to see more coloration options in the future, maybe you can add the option to color just the hair tips a different color or a strand of hair, I would love to see the customizations visually effect the character more, maybe longer hair options, and maybe you can have it so that the Relics have customization options described in their item descriptions and to add those customization options the character would have to swallow them:
you want to be able to vore? swallow a vore relic! want 2 more arms? Swallow a relic for it! want a fat gecko tail and scales? swallow relics for them! want to regenerate your lost limbs? swallow a relic for it? want to look like you just came out of a alien vs predator movie... well, I guess you can swallow a few to get something similar?? want to look like a human centipede made out of multiple female torsos stacked on top of each other with a split jaw, 4 black and red eyes and cracked skin?? uuhhhh???
"human centipede made out of multiple female torsos stacked on top of each other with a split jaw, 4 black and red eyes and cracked skin" I feel like you've thought about this one a little too much haha.
On the colouring side, I'm at the point of working with some artists to really nail down how the player characters displayed so Ill keep things like custom tips in mind though! Anything like that, feel free to mention, its something that's easier to add in early than to have to retrofit later on.
"easier to add in early than to have to retrofit later on." on that note maybe you can add nail coloring? I'm trying to think of things that can be colored different colors like scales and fur... maybe different horn types? I do love horns! What else? Oh yeah! I would recommend looking into RahiMew's "Broken Dreams Correctional Center"'s character creator it has a nice few options.3:
Bingo! Horns for example, I added them in and realised I got split up the hair so it can be layered correctly.
And I'll check it out! for you know science reasons ;)
Should I try thinking of something else? like maybe you can add the different kinds of vore types as just temporary copied and renamed buttons of the kill button? or how for tail vore access on any tail type you can add 3 different tail mouth types(player can choose between "o" shaped mouth hole opening, (+)shaped mouth hole opening, or a human mouth shaped hole opening?
During the orphanage tutorial, one of the quests requires clearing three groups of cockroaches... I found and defeated one group after entering the boys bathroom the first time. I have been unable to find anymore cockroaches since, days later, after walking from room to room and exploring the entire map, still no more cockroaches in the orphanage...
What am I missing/ doing wrong?
Hey! That area/quest was recently added so still has some issues. Some people find them immediately and others are like you and never find the other two. They will be a new build coming out in 1-2 weeks that should fix most of the issues though.
You are also able to skip that quest, only ends with giving the player some money.
Thanks for the response and information. Looking forward to seeing the progression of your game. Good luck with the project.
Haven’t played yet, looks interesting.
Please make properly compatible with mobile devices, but in the meantime, wish me luck!
Hey! I've gotten some mixed feedback on mobile, Ive tried to make it as dynamic as possible but if theres any UI that really seems to break, just let me know what phone or resolution you're using.
Thanks! It’s an iPhone 15, no clue about the resolution.
You swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to the Home Screen, and there’s an indicator bar right on top of the button to leave the orphanage🤣. And also the continue button at the very beginning. And the buttons are very small for fingers, bit hard to hit. Practically unplayable in portrait mode, as most games with ‘map traversal?’ (I don’t know what it’s called) are on phones, but switching back and forth does help with the aforementioned button pressing.
Other than that, everything works pretty good, bit hard to understand what I’m supposed to be doing, the white font blends in with the beige banners which is made even harder to read thanks to the small screen, and you can’t sleep to recover stamina in the orphanage?! Aren’t you supposed to live there?
That got long fast. Just small things, really.
I hadn’t even started playing when I posted the comment, but it had a notice that the game was not designed to run on my device below the run game button, hence the comment.
I really appreciate you reaching out like this and stuff (tearing up a bit as I’m writing this, I don’t talk to people much, it feels nice). Thanks again!
I just realized everybody is going to be able to read that last bit. Oh well.
Im gonna be real, that might be one of the most wholesome things I've read in a long time. Hope everything's going well for you!
Yeah the game itself is still really early in development. Case in point, the bed being missing form the orphanage, even though I made sure all the dialogue hints that you can sleep there.
I have an idea where I want it to go, but the reality is I'm not a designer, so I've mainly put it out there to get ideas on what ways to take the project. See what mechanics people love/hate.
Ill say were still several months away from it feeling like an actual game.
Oh and in the options if you enable the offsets it should move the UI away from the edges of the screen.
Ill also say if you did want to jump on the discord, I'm always down to listen to ideas/feedback or even just how's your day going.
Oh, I’m fine, thanks for the concern, (tearing up again) I just don’t really get out a lot and it makes me happy when people reply to my comments. Will check the settings.
it appears the browser version does not let you go past the tutorial. your stuck in the girls dormitory with no way out and the only option is to loiter.
Hey! Many others haven't had this issue, are you able to let me know if you played on a phone or anything? That said there were some big changes I made in the next build that should fix any issues there.
im playing on firefox browser on pc.
Thanks! Ill get it downloaded and double check it
i would like to add more to this. every version of this even downloading it has this issue. you get to the tutorial or skip it and the ONLY option is to loiter.
Hey! Yeah I found a couple issues with it, when trying it out myself, they appear to be mostly fixed now. The joys of massive backend changes to a lot of the systems. The next build should be out this weekend for patrons, and then in 2 weeks for the public build.
The arrow to view and select the different actions doesn't work. Leaving me with the first 15 actions in a fight. Clicking on it does nothing.
Hey! Thanks for letting me know I’ll be sure to fix that asap!
One thing that would be nice in this game that we don't get a lot of in other games is the ability to hire creatures as companions, upsides and down sides all considered, you loose access to cities and towns with them in your party, but so long as you're careful and resourceful you can evolve your creature companions into capable allies for combat throughout the game, what do you think yoraphim.
Hey! Already on it haha! I think I've decided that you'll never really have a party that fights with with. but they'll come along help you carry things, give boosts to any survival aspects etc. And be there while setting up camp.
But more on the up and down sides of things, I'm planning to have essentially a faction system. Everyone belongs to a faction and they all have relations with each other. Join up with the bandits and suddenly everyone in town likes you a lot less. But you do get a new outpost on layer 1 and they wont attack you any more.
I do also plan for taming, but don't think it would be as influential. I guess people should react if you walk through town with a 2m tall dire wold though....
Is there a guide on what to do?
Not at this point, best bet is doing the tutorial area, and then finding the adventures guild, they have a quest for you.
Other than that you're able to search for some relics that lets you customise your character some more.
But its still super early so theres not too much actual content in the game.
Hey..I can’t help but notice how am I supposed to poo/pee in the toilets? There isn’t any action for it only “Have some fun” even tho my character is already full.
Yeah, that's a known issues that's been fixed in the next update. I managed to mess up my greater than and less that signs.
Are you going to make an android version?
Hey Zeka! Yeah its in the works. Unfortunately I dont have any good way to test the android builds. Im able to get some feedback from the community, but the last couple wouldn't even let you get past the main menu.
But Im in process of getting one.
I made the screen too small and the confirm and back buttons are gone so I can't start a game.
Hi is this on PC? If so you're able to delete the options file to hard reset it.
It should be found in the AppData folder, although its sometimes hidden, just google search to find out how to enable it if so.
Then at "AppData\LocalLow\YoraphimDev\The Unseen Depths"
And then just the OptionsData file.
Hope this helps!
There is no "YoraphimDev" folder not even a folder starting with a y, I have the view hidden items enabled.
If you do reboot the game is it the same broken resolution? Only thing I can think is it didn't actually save then.
But Ill double check if there may be any weird saving locations based on different platforms.
any plans to add werewolves/dragons as well as caves/dens for them for us to run into maybe get captured by them and taken to said dens/caves
Yeah for sure! I havent decided about how much I was to lean into the mythical aspect, like vampires, werewolves, dragons etc. But there will be very similar creatures.
As for the capturing part, 100% yes. If you have played degrees of lewdity, I imagine it would be something very similar to the the wolves catching you, or Eden the hunter.
I would like a map to be added (either updated as you progress or purchased) because I get lost.
Hey! Yeah with the last update there should be something similar. Essentially instead of moving around via buttons, you can pick where to go on a map. Some areas are missing a BG image, but in the next update everything will have something.
Could you also include that the game in Spanish pls?
Hey! Yeah I can add it in, but at this point itll just be using google translate.
Hi, I could help you translate it to spanish if you want to cuz I'm a native spanish speaker
Hey! Yeah that would be awesome! Its got alot of weirdness to it, but if you shoot me a message on the discord Im happy to show you what the back end looks like.
If you want, I could help translate the game to German, just not super fast because life and such...
Hi Othorion, that would be awesome, thanks for the offer! I'm in the process of proofreading everything and making some big changes, but if you want to add me on Discord Ill reach out when its ready.
Username: yoraphimdev
I turned off hunger but it's still being tracke
Thanks for letting me know! A couple others pointed this out so going to try and get a hot fix for it out today
Yay! Good luck
Hey! Thanks for that, haven't seen it before. Cant see the exact cause but I already have some ideas. I know the saving system could be problematic, but was hoping to push it off for a while. But Ill bump that up in priority!
Played it for a bit, some feedback:
1) Easy to get lost, especially in town, so having some kind of location picker would be useful so I could go straight to say the homeless shelter without remembering which steps gets me there. Especially important for finding the gondola again.
2) I like that most steps outside says -XX depth, which tells me I'm likely going in the right direction for combat and looting. The confusion though of getting to Stone Ark, and the only options then is a small +XX depth or +XXX depth by taking the gondola.
3) I didn't find much combat and the stuff I did, I didn't feel like I had many options. Sure there was sexual options, but in terms of fighting, had no abilities, no special moves, and no critical hit effects (ie stun, open wounds, severe combat debuff).
4) Wasn't very clear what I was supposed to do. Some kind of objectives menu of optional or required tasks to complete would be useful. Even if they are just tutorial tasks teaching you the ropes. But like I had little idea on how to get money, how to descend deeper than layer 1, how to find combat to actually fight (loitering didn't do anything) and what kinds of things can I do in town.
5) Weird how there is tabs for Skills and Sexperience, but nothing is there yet.
6) Didn't encounter any sex scenes. I found I could masturbate in toilets, but for what purpose, I don't know. I could attempt to do it in combat, but felt that with a sword I should use it.
7) Wasn't very clear in the shop the difference between briefs and tights. In inventory, one appears on her body and the other doesn't. And both of them had the same visual description, but equipping one of them did unequip her panties. Otherwise, never found any armor items, shields, or such forth to improve combat survival odds.
8) Encountered one plant thing, two wolves, and one more wolf. Killing the plant, gave no loot or option to loot. Killing one wolf gave no option to loot, the other I wounded and had the option to loot and then kill. Last wolf was I think asleep? As I could loot, but not kill them?
9) Hunted for relics found enough to buy basically everything in the shop. Hope there will be other purposes for money later.
10) Noticed that when setting up camp, I can't urinate/poop in the field. Have to find a toilet. And finding food to eat wasn't possible, so if I didn't have rations I'd starve. No berries, fruit, or vegetables to be found anywhere. Can't even go "Delicious in the Dungeon" and turn monsters into food.
I'll keep an eye on this one. It has some elements I like, and interested to see what happens with it.
I do hope for:
-> Anal/Oral, as those are my preferences. So having an option to disable vaginal content be nice.
-> Oviposition and alternative pregnancies (ie anal egg impregnation) and an option to just disable vaginal pregnancies.
-> Ability to disable/weaken a target so you can rape them, on your terms.
Hi! Thanks for the feedback!
"Anal/Oral, as those are my preferences. So having an option to disable vaginal content be nice." Both of these sex types will be coming soon, and thanks for letting me know. Me in my infinite wisdom went straight to female/female togglable, male/male togglable, and then stopped there.
With that though, are you also interested in a slider that lets you say how many NPC's are female/male?
Excluding the bugs, slowly working my way through them. I think the best way to describe the game at this point is its as wide as an ocean but as deep as a puddle. At the moment you'll find a lot of systems that have a single piece of content.
Skills for example, there is one skill in the game and its for running. I never wanted to add more incase they get replaced or redone later on.
That said, moving forwards Im splitting my time up for the next build into the most requested feature, at the moment a map for navigation, bug fixes, and a focus on a piece of content, for the next build it'll be NPC interactions.
A percentage option that a male character is turned into a female character or vice versa. So if you only wanted female characters, then set the percentage of 100% of males turned into females. And for maximum randomness have percentages active for both.
Unless what you had in mind was that we could specify changing the sex of specific NPCs in the game or the sex of the monsters; ie you only encounter female wolves or male minotaurs or futanari demons.
Well to be fair, its like the first major release of early prototype gameplay, so its expected that things are missing. Its just that usually when they are missing, the tabs for them don't exist at all.
My philosophy with skills is to have as few as possible, that covers as many actions as possible. Like in Elder Scrolls Oblivion, where Athletics covers running and swimming. Or Acrobats that covers jumping and falling. Or you could even merge the two together so that Athletics covered running, jumping, swimming and falling. That way too, doing any of those actions builds up that skill, making it overall easier to level up.
A map may or may not be easier to implement than a sub menu that lets you pick your destination, if you've visited it once already.
If you can make it available for iPhone that would be amazing because the run game option on itch.io takes upwards of an hour to load on iphone and a decent internet connection
Hey! Yeah I'm looking at getting an android build out soon, but iPhone will be a while off, just because the build side of things is way more complex. But plans to have it one day
Please add an option to turn off f/m content. Also, I beg you add a minimap, I kept getting lost while trying to play.
There is an issue where if your character has a penis and a vagina the vagina keeps gets referred to as penis during battles, and I don't know if it's a problem with just my game but when my character was wearing male clothing options use of the vagina was not available during battles
Never occurred to me that m/f would be something people wanted taggable, so thanks for letting me know, Ill be sure to add that in!
And yeah right now it just looks at the "primary" genitals for everything, I haven't set up it to look at the secondary. But I'm in the process of adding that in, should be next build or the one after that!
Been playing a bit of this, as of late. It's looking pretty good, so far, IMO. My question is: Is anal possible? I imagine it would be, since 2 Genital options are available. I imagine it would be an option in a later update.
I also wonder if you plan to add sliders for legs, and butt. Always wanted a PAWG as a creatable option.
Hey! Yeah anal is defiantly going to be added! Just a matter of writing out the descriptions for it!
And will have leg and ass sliders at some point.
If you think its worth it, I'm happy to add in the text and have NPCs react to it, you just wont see it visually?
Ah, I see. That makes sense. Would love to see some BBWs, too.
Also, one thing I think the game would benefit greatly from is a fetish/kink/preference system. Basically, all NPCs, Enemy NPCs, and your own character have a thing that says what type of sex and foreplays they like, such as one NPC liking anal and oral, but disliking vaginal sex, or another NPC liking bigger butts, yet disliking big breasts. This would not only effect how enemies rape your character, but also effects what your character begins to like more after the rape is done.
Two good examples of this type of system is BDCC and Lilith's Throne.
This game look mad interesting, all characters design are really good, I wish this was downloadedable on my android phone.
Im aiming to get android builds going in the next couple weeks, though no way to test them so we'll see how that goes! haha
Can't wait!! Hope it'll go smoothly!
This game has a solid foundation and I really enjoyed what you did with it so far.
I think aslong as you continue to develop it, this is gonna turn out fantastic.
I know its in its early staged, but I would like to ask, will our paper doll character react to: Damage, i.e blood, scratches, bites? Will it react to being impregnated by showing a big belly? Will it react to being testicularly impregnated via the ovipositor by showing swollen balls?
I think visual changes to the model like this would be awesome and be a good representation for the player to see whats happened to their character.
Anyways best of luck, ill be watching!
Thanks! Been heaps for feedback past couple ideas so been getting some really great ideas!
Defiantly want to get what you mentioned in, even looking at adding slight animations, like swaying to reacting to being hit.
Main bottle neck is just the art side of things.
Side note I have never heard of being testicular impregnated before, but Ill add it to the list! Any other ideas feel free to throw them out there!
I've gotten this far using AI art as a placeholder, but its pretty much reached its limit. Good news is I've gotten some help form the community with doing art, and I'm working with an artist so should have some things come in next couple weeks.
game nanachi verified, nice job dev
Haha, now I really want to see a series about Nanachi playing different games and reviewing them.
You can't make your character a trap?
Not at this point. Pretty much if you lean more towards a masculine or feminine it'll use that particular body. But I can plan to add in an manually override, and have the text also reflect that! Though no idea what the ETA on that would be.
how 2 exit fullscreen i have DirectX and it has a color bug with unity
Hi! I saw a couple people having the same issue, I'm currently making a hotfix, should be up next 5-10 minutes.
Wish I could play it on my phone only the left side fits nothing else ^^
Hey! Yeah its something I've heard a couple times before. Theres like 3 more UI's (Dedicated crafting, full dialogue, sex stats) I need to implement. And then I'm going to be checking out the mobile phone side of things. So probably next 2-3 months you should expect a fix for it, just a much lower priority for it while mechanics are still added in.
it's a good game ^^
I noticed the demon eyes and thought it was very great detail keep up the excellent work
Thanks!
If theres any small details alot games miss that you want let me know!
I love small details of being able to add demonic,angelic, animalistic,dragonic,elven, and others I can't name right now
Ah got it! Yeah going to have a lot of that in. Some will be coming in the form of curses which will be random, or relics that let you pick and choose. While others might be gained via traits, say 30 days as a virgin makes you more angelic(Halo, wings etc).
needs chastity :3
Don't worry that's probably 2 updates away, maybe 3.
eheheh~
Very promising. Looking forward to see how this develops!^^
this is interesting, but rather clearly needs some work-
just as an example the fucking system needs an addition to allow one to reclaim the usage of their own body parts, particularly once the NPC they were used on or who took control of them is gone or dead- though having the ability to do so before they are would be nice as well.
this also comes in the form of crashing, a fairly common issue where the player has either killed an enemy dead- or just generally had a bad roll following fighting an over developed bonsai.
I would also suggest poking at the 'full screen' buttons if possible, the 'bigger' blue one works and puts you in full screen, the smaller transparent one on top of it does not, instead centering the game with a black border taking up 40-45% of the screen (firefox, screen resolution of 1680 x 1050)
An "over developed bonsai" This has to be one of my new favourite things haha.
But yeah 100% agree, alot of the things you mentioned should be fixed on the next update. Im kinda doing a clean slate, focused less on new systems and instead fixing a bunch of softlocks, missing translations etc, just to get it back to a more playable state. But its going to be alot of back and forth at least this early in development, oh lets add in pregnancy, now the UI's broken and the sex scenes need code changes, well more bug here we go! So now and at least for a a couple more months expect it to be in an unstable state.
And on the fullscreen. probably lower on my list of priorities but thank you so much for including the browser and resolution, things like that help so much!
Interesting concept, however I do hope that you do replace the AI generated images out of the game at some point.
Thanks!
Yeah I totally agree. It’s been useful to use a placeholder to show off the systems and get a better sense of what I need, but it’s pretty much at its limit now. Even then new clothing system needed me to just draw something up in paint haha.
With that said I’m currently in the process of figuring out the best way to replace it all.
Hi; There's a small problem on mobile, and the problem is that i cant see anything that's bellow the "Continue" button on the main screen for reference
There's alao lag issues, but these are the norm for mobile
did you fullscreen it?
The game always fullscreens on mobile, atleast on android
Hi Shadow!
Unfortunately at this time I'm not really focused on the mobile dev side of things. Still very early in development. So its in the if it works great! Otherwise Ill get to it later. I do try my best to make sure that on PC it runs correctly though.
But on the timeline side of things going to looking at optimising and building the UI to scale correctly in 2-3 months.
