I like the deckbuilding, being able to store cards until you have a combo with more powerful cards available separately as boons.
I think there's a few issues still:
- The limit of 2 copies of a card mean picking additional copies of basic cards like "Take off her clothes" simply wastes your pick.
- The fixed 12 cards and limit of 2 "Take off her clothes" means the only way to take off clothes faster is by getting the Rip card.
- If you draw both your "Take off her clothes" in the same hand it severely slows down the stripping.
- The limit of 2 copies of a card is bypassed by the Combo cards, you can have 2 "Fuck her pussy" and add "Fuck her pussy & Fondle her tits".
Suggestions:
- Trade one of the starting "Take off her clothes" for a "Ask her to strip" witch removes her clothes and deals Arousal to yourself. This will enable you to pick and add cards that strip your opponent from card rewards.
- Do not offer cards that you have 2 copies of in the card rewards.
Thanks the second time for your detailled analysis and suggestions!
I really like both of your suggestions, and I'll likely add both of them in the next few weeks.
I'll have to think about how to implement only allowing "useful" cards - the card limit is not hard coded to two cards, but depends on the difficulty (hard=2, normal=3 easy=5), but I guess I can find some sort of algorithm which does not punish the player on easier modes by giving them more useless cards than on hard mode. (I had considered adding a shop level or something like that, to allow the player to sell useless cards and buy good ones, but in the end I decided that would make things too complex 😅)
Ah! I jumped straight in hard mode, I didn't notice easier difficulties would change the copies limit.
Thinking about it more, the Boredom already penalizes you for having multiple copies of a card. I thought the card limit would be 2 on all difficulties because adding a 3rd Fondle is shooting yourself in the foot. There's only a few cards that can benefit from more copies. The Fingering and Fuck cards have their Dildo equivalent already, it's only Take Off Her Clothes that runs into that issue because it is necessary, has no alternative and doesn't care about Boredom.
If the Hard difficulty limits you to 2 copies intentionally, the duplicate cards rewards make sense. You can still win the game despite it, the Retry Bout lets you recover from terrible stripping RNG.
Yeah I limited it to avoid players being able to spam a few good cards together with "reset boredom".
But I understand, that it feels frustrating to (by chance) only get new "crappy"/non-useful cards. I'm thinking I might adapt the picking algorithm from pure random to slightly adjusted probabilities (so that the more copies of a card you already have, the less likely it is, that another copy will be in the list, meaning players will get more new cards on average). That would benefit players on all difficulties.
i easily destroyed all my opponents on my first try can we get an optional difficulty setting? remove easy mode and have just normal hard and unlockable god mode after you beat hard mode >:3 .
I like the idea, but the RNG to strip is ruining it.
- Out of the 14 starting cards only 4 can be used with a clothed opponent, leading to frustrating turns where you have to skip - Only 2 of the 14 cards actually help you unlock the 10 that require nudity to be used - That means you need at least one shuffle to disrobe a character with 3 layers, more if you draw both in the same hand, and adding cards to your deck makes it even longer - The opponent has the same issue, if you retry a bout enough times you will end up with a good start and your opponent a bad start and you will win
Suggestions: - Remove the 4 Ass cards from the starting deck - Add 2 Grope cards to the starting deck, dealing 1-8 arousal reduced by Clothes - Add an Anal reward package that adds 1 Fuck her ass and 1 Lube, which adds 3 Ass lubrication reduced by Boredom - Rework the opponent decks to have more clothed options as well. A Stripshow card that deals lots of arousal but takes their own clothes could work well.
Wow thanks, you really looked at it deeply and took time to think about the mechanics 👍
Totally agree the flow is a bit rough. I like your idea of a "grope" card to make the beginning phase more engaging. I hope I'll manage to add that and upload it today.
In general, I think the game would benefit from having more focus on the deck building, e.g. by allowing the player to choose at least parts of the starting deck (and maybe allow some fine tuning between rounds) instead of making it fixed. But I'll have to see when/if I get around to that.

Congratulation on the 1.0 release!

will there be futa content?
Sorry, no, that is not currently planned. Maybe in the far future.

You are in luck - I already started working on adding selectable diffculty (I agree the last change made it way to easy ).
I plan to upload the new version tomorrow.
nice <3 that awesome to here i can't wait also forgot to say it's a great game
Thanks a lot 🥰
I just uploaded the new version.
glad to hear that gonna try it right away 🥰
Oh yes, just spamming "Do nothing" (bcs there is no other option) until i loose! Great gameplay :D
I get your frustration, sometimes its not just the girls fucking you but the RNG too :D
I just uploaded an update which makes this a little bit less rough (and which makes the game easier overall)
Congratulations for releasing your first game!
