Guys, i need help to decide if i should continue playing or not.
My peener lead me all the way to the chapter where the gang and the bandits crash their yachts on that „deserted“ island. I don´t know how much playtime is left, but this is where i finally cracked.
The thing is... i never really liked Amber. But the emerging glimpse of character growth following the Kitsune „incident“ gave me hope. I think i would have bailed sooner if not for that.
(Tldr. Does Amber get better from here or should i not bother?)
(in Depth rant)
I was actually thinking she might deliver on the whole caring more about the feelings of others shtick. A character arc from a self absorbed haughty bully who takes whatever she pleases from whoever she pleases and rubs it in their faces in the most self-aggrandizing way to someone who actually reflects on what giving „consent“ actually means: Asking if you can take things, asking if someone likes to get burped at and being forced to listen to her bodily functions when pinned down. And yes, also if she actually wants to risk putting the „monsters“ and other „dumb animals“ through the same trauma she hated so much. (its especially abhorrent, coming from the side mission with the blobbified parents, hearing her go: „i love how i can still feel their bones, eating monsters is the best!“. Savior complex my ass.)
But all that character development was completely discarded by the time of the island chapter. How she treated monsters. How she instantly devoured all the food ignoring how her entire friend circle or at least the bandits might be stuck on that island for a possibly very long time, how she completely shat on rebecca at every corner despite wanting to apologize earlier, how she forced a paralysed (!) mouse twinkboy into her stomach knowing he couldn´t even get out. Abhorrent!
Now i get it. Revelling in the grandeur of what your stomach is able to do is kinda what the fetish is all about, but thats why it is so crucial for the MC to actually be LIKEABLE. When that balance is off it goes from a hot self insert to more and more opposing the character, because she inevitably gets her dick ridden by the universe all the time. Like… rebecca is not exactly the nicest person around and her design ain´t all that sexy, but simply by virtue of being such an underdog you start rooting for her instead of Amber. I wanted to yeet Amber/myself so badly in the Acid pools inside of snake lady when it was teased at just because of the growing disdain alone.
IMHO to enjoy the game its crucial we WANT the MC to get the prime cut all the time. but thats just not the case for me anymore. I have my doubts it gets any better considering whatever the „Cult of Amber“ thing is i keep reading about that will follow this. Does it?
It also doesnt help that the game is just too repetitive. I want to see where the story goes, but i almost feel held hostage, forced to „unlock“ the 100th barely different promopicture of rotund Amber because she ate oh so much again for whatever contrived uninspired reason. it just endlessly loops around. instead of having notable storyprogress and a sense of urgency it just meanders. Like if it actually was hot that would be nice. But the settings are all far too samey and predictable. The game is best whenever the other characters get to shine, though i must say its also very confusing how every girl in the game suddenly has stomach superpowers, but alas, its at least better then even more Amber-wank.
I am sorry (kinda). I really needed to get this of my chest. I suppose i am just angry by how close this game is to actually being something i´d REALLY love.
I can clearly see this is a mammoth of an rpg maker game that makes me tingly in the right places occasionally and with lots and lots of orignal art but i am still ready to call it quits now and i won´t lie, that frustrates me, but i realized spending time with Amber frustrates me even more.
I got to the Amber cult section and saved after the sequence with Cat and exited the game after going to the menu, opened up the game and the continue option in the menu was greyed/grayed out, tried relaunching didn't help. I'm gonna have to replay the game aren't I? (I can see the save file in the 'saves' folder don't know what to do)
Just binged the entire game over like 2-3 days, and I have to say, I absolutely love it, even setting the Vore aside I don't think a game has made me laugh this hard in years. I absolutely love it.
Also, if you ever decide to make the youtube video playbacks have optional comments you can read I will be very happy.
But yeah, absolutely amazing game, and I honestly really look forwards to seeing the rest as it's uploaded!
Gotta say, the 0.27 update was fantastic. Plenty of interaction with a lot of characters besides just the main crew, good fights in the mainline that are challenging without being clench-worthy, with optional fights that are real rough rides while still being possible if you fight smart. And of course, the rewards for those optional fights are phenomenal. (The loot from the Jesus fight in particular is incredible, which is fitting for how hard you get hit in that fight.) My favorite scene was probably Wires's Rancid Ass-venture, not only for the comedy (by the lorde, front-facing Wires is unnerving), but also the moments where the character shines through the mask. Verdict: good shit, thank fuck everybody took a shower afterwards.
This update was awesome dude, the cool fights, a huge lot of lore, all the jokes I love it. I'm excited to see how all the tiny plots pan out in the main storyline, it's fascinating.
I thought this was just gonna be another RPG maker vore game and that it was gonna be short and sweet... but, uh, no it never fuckin ends what did i download
These aren't characters. They're a single, unmasked, repulsive self-insert surrounded by the dev's shallow imagination of 'different' characters from the protag. Realistically it's all the same personality. For a free game I still feel scammed.
Now whenever there's one writer you can pick out common themes, and especially when the piece of literature is horny.
Still, I think our writer has done a good job making different characters and making interactions between them. Maybe they're many sides of the same mind, but that's interesting and you can't ask for more without a team.
If it's not fun for you feel free to not check it out for free anymore.
I'm interested to see where this goes. Largely to see where the main plot with Someone ends up, but also to see what happens with everyone else.
And to see the new art, I especially like the enemies.
Oh btw I didn't downvote you, but how much did you play?
I started playing cause I thought it might be a vore game, I didn't mind it being a stuffing game, I kept going because it's a good game
Dude, you're wasting your breath complaining about something you can get for free. Be more grateful. You don't have to like it, and if you don't, good for you. But there's no need for you to come on here and mouth off at the creator because they made something you didn't like.
I SIMPLY CANT GET THE BIG ONE... please slow down the fishing minigame just a little bit. ive been trying for the past hour and its just too fast... apparently the average reaction time of 250ms isnt enough to catch it. ive tried using cheat engine to slow down the game and that doesnt work either. do i gotta predict when the fish is coming up??? please help.
ok turns out... i already had the big one and i didnt know. cause it doesnt tell you when you collected everything! and whenever i tried continuing it said i had to catch the "big one" still so i had no idea...
itch.io just delisted all adult games from search results. This means nearly all traffic for your games is gone. There have been people whose titles have been deleted altogether as well. Spread the word, this injustice must not stand!!! You still have your Follows available. Reach far and wide for the others.
ApocXL still shows up because I removed the "adult" tag. I'd be happy to add it back once it's not a literal setting to kill your game's traffic. It still has the "fetish" tag so it's hopefully obvious that it's a nsfw game.
I came for something calm and what was always the game and I came out all sad and out of sorts that it became serious and that you dedicated a character with a brutal past
great game although it would be nice if there was some kind of sign that youre about to enter a bossfight, i have gotten set back an hour twice now because im bad with saving, or just let us retry the boss
Hey zenthicks… I think your game is absolutely amazing. I just have a singular critique, I just wish there was a list of chapters for people who have lost their data. my pc recently got wiped clean and I lost everything… I was on the part where you go to the pier with the fish and everything. really hoping there’s a feature where it comes with saves from different chapters with a decent start of items. Similar to how “Evoria” did it
[spoilers, i think] I've seen people comment about cat's digestion but i've made it past the segment where i thought it would happen (beating fat rachel) was i supposed to lose the fight or does it happen later in the story?
So finally finished it and i have to say that it owned its place between my favorite kink games!!! 10/10 some notes
Gameplay wise, The combat is pretty good! The characters sinergyse well with eachother and their abilitys are all difernet, making that most battles feel diferent from each other.
In the story aspect is pretty good too!! Apart from one bit but i already gave my thoughts on the cat stuff in another comment, aside from that the main cast is and all their interacions are really fun, im actually kind of inpressed, with this big of a cast i was expecting some of them to kind blend in with the background but no they all have their moments to shine and i really like how the story handles them, imo it kind of feels episodic and i really like that!!
Tldr: im exited for whenever the next update comes!!!
i had a save with over 34 hours on it and the files of the saves seem like they still exsist, but the games does not recognise it, so I would have to start all over again... any tips? i do not want to play all of that 34 hours again. because I have played it over the course of a few months... I did nothing to any files though, and I always saved the game before closing it...
Something I meant to ask a while back, when it comes to the Walkia is it better to eat as much as you can on the first visit or come back later in the game and eat everything then?
Sometimes the sidequest releases really pop off, and for me, this one did! You got a navigating relationships quest, a vore quest, and a weird stuff that relates to the story quest.
Folks who like just feeding might feel left out, that's not my thing so I was happy to see a vore heavy release. Two in a row really if we think of Cat, and I'm curious what happens with Alexander (lol). Still curious to see what happens with the main plot, which seems to generate your wildest enemies that I always like seeing ha, I appreciate your "out there" art as much as your art about the things that clearly draw people to this game. (Me too)
I like the someone, noosphere, etc story as well. It's, uh, relatable ha. I like to hear your ideas
Vlad got us close to there, and I have a feeling he might get OP eventually.
When i first started playing and seeing the version i thought this game would be only a couple hours at most, yet i have sunk well over 18 hours into it and having an absolute blast.
A perfect combination of horny and captivating storytelling, there is so much effort put into this game that it is genuinely captivating.
Keep up the great work, really excited to see more!

Dude the Mind control girl is such an asshole, she's hilarious.
I am loving this game you did a good job making it, you shored be prod of your work.

Question out of curiotisty, when ever apocalips XL is finished, in a hipotetical future would you try your hand at making another game?
Yeah I already have plans laid out for a new game once ApocXL is finished
Forgot to save and lost it all. but does anyone know the corn man translations?

Clever writing, fun art and sprites and best of all, great characters and an honestly intriguing story.

I thought this was just gonna be another RPG maker vore game and that it was gonna be short and sweet... but, uh, no
it never fuckin ends
what did i download

i personally dont even really play it for the horny at this point i just like the game

Let me guess, your face is tiny. Or you turned into corn.
(heehee)
mad because I gave you a boner for a trans woman
based
Zenthicks you are one of the funniest people ever
correct
I'm having trouble getting through the "swole shark" fight, does anyone know the best strategy for getting past that?
Im soft locked in the area where you get checked up and i dont know what to d
i got the same problem :p
Total prolapse Mike is gonna live in my nightmares for a few years I think...
The dumb military nerd in me hopes that in the future, we get to see troops in OCP ACUs
I SIMPLY CANT GET THE BIG ONE... please slow down the fishing minigame just a little bit. ive been trying for the past hour and its just too fast... apparently the average reaction time of 250ms isnt enough to catch it. ive tried using cheat engine to slow down the game and that doesnt work either. do i gotta predict when the fish is coming up??? please help.
reaction time isnt actually that important you just gotta hold down z/enter/right click when the sound effect plays and you'll always get the fish
ok turns out... i already had the big one and i didnt know. cause it doesnt tell you when you collected everything! and whenever i tried continuing it said i had to catch the "big one" still so i had no idea...
Is the big one the last one?
I'm not even into vore, why is this game so peak
Getting the pizza in the parlor/bar area by yourself as Wires seems to softlock the game when "Good argument" appears.
Hear he Hear he

Spread the word, this injustice must not stand!!! You still have your Follows available. Reach far and wide for the others.
This one actually does seem to still show up for now, but yeah, VISA+Mastercard are going after itch now.
Even more reason to not to let the little voices to only murmur(us). We must speak up and not let this be another "Pay for internet" fiasco again
ApocXL still shows up because I removed the "adult" tag. I'd be happy to add it back once it's not a literal setting to kill your game's traffic. It still has the "fetish" tag so it's hopefully obvious that it's a nsfw game.
It's not card companies or itch.io it's all collective shout.
The execs of those companies are in puritanical cults like collective shout.
Tried updating. Got an error. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling and ended up deleting my save.
I came for something calm and what was always the game and I came out all sad and out of sorts that it became serious and that you dedicated a character with a brutal past
Update was really good. It hit hard.
Can anyone advise how you catch "the big one" fish? Seems to hint there might be a secret fish.
i think it might just be the 5th/round plushy since its described to have weighed at least 20lbs
great game although it would be nice if there was some kind of sign that youre about to enter a bossfight, i have gotten set back an hour twice now because im bad with saving, or just let us retry the boss
edit: see reply
after playing further into the game i came to a boss that had a warning so i guess someone else must have had the same problem a while ago
Hey zenthicks… I think your game is absolutely amazing.

gotta continue the main story, but thats a pretty big spoiler my guy
thats what saves are you can make a checkpoint anywhere
if anyone was wondering what the morse code was that the corn cob guy was saying, I translated it, it says;
"FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, FREE ME FROM THIS CORN PRISON!"
"I BEG YOU!"
"JIMMY YOU ASSHOLE I'M STILL ALIVE IN HERE!"
"I STILL DON'T BELIEVE IT." (after he has literally been turned into corn)
"IF ONLY I WASN'T IMPRISONED WITHIN THIS HUSK, I COULD TELL THEM ALL!"
"GO AHEAD. KEEP SCREAMING "SHUT THE FUCK UP" AT ME. IT ONLY MAKES MY OPINIONS WORSE"
its been a while what part was that from again?
So finally finished it and i have to say that it owned its place between my favorite kink games!!! 10/10 some notes

is this a vore game or a fat game?
both
It's got a good amount of both but the thing it has the most of is stuffing
oh then is the stuffing optional? or is it manditory?
i had a save with over 34 hours on it and the files of the saves seem like they still exsist, but the games does not recognise it, so I would have to start all over again... any tips? i do not want to play all of that 34 hours again. because I have played it over the course of a few months...
