O hai there rat! - LBCX v0.4
Release v0.4 serves to showcase improved tileset texturing, non-dynamic lighting and ammo-changing (there's only one other ammo to change to currently).
Edit #1: Re-uploaded.
> Fixed fat rat hitbox, now no longer float between gaps in platforms.
> Fixed player stuck in slopes after H-animation. Still feels floaty though.
> H-animation no longer obscured by idling enemies.
Edit#2: Added few mirrors to link.
> Flash effect not appearing during climax scene. Fixed.

Couple of notes:
- When entering pause screen, you will see things disappearing momentarily. It's a new change, still tinkering. The pause HUD still looks like shit though.
- Choosing difficulty makes no difference, function not done.
- Pressing 'L' key disables the screen filter in the lower area.
- If you found a bug, tell me in the comment section below!
- It's still July!
Oh and I've also updated and included links to new developers of H-games on the right-hand side, newest links sorted at the top, so be sure to check them out!
How exciting! :O
ReplyDeleteSome bugs I noticed.
- Jumping through doorways, when you land on the other side you stop moving forward.
- During H animations, enemies can move in front of you blocking the animation which is a problem.
- Also H animations can appear suspended in the air when they happen on platforms that are close together (like the two down where the rats are), probably when they happen near ledges too.
Anyways, looks great. How big a game are you aiming for and how much longer do you think until completion?
H-animations also seem airborne when they happen on slopes.
DeleteOne more thing, I wanted to say that I think the pause HUD looks pretty good. If your comparing it strictly to other H-games it may be the best one ever made.
Oops! Did some testing, seems players can also get stuck at slopes during those floaty H-animations. The rat had some really fat hitbox that's making it float through gaps, so I've re-uploaded v0.4 addressing said issues. I think I've fixed it.
DeleteAlso, H-animations no longer obscured by enemies.
How big a game you ask? Hopefully I could get to the point in which Labcoax could provide about 3 hours of gameplay.
Only problem I see is there needs to be a volume option for the sounds. It was deafeningly loud when I first started trying out the game. Other than that looks awesome. :)
ReplyDeleteI am truly sorry if I got you caught with your pants down. Won't happen again.
DeleteFantastic work so far! The only encouragment I could give is that the orgasm scenes might be more "messy".
ReplyDeleteHowever, your animations are fluid, your controls are smooth, and your enemies are imaginative. Excellent work, I would be the first to shout "Shut-up and take my money" when you've completed this endevor.
Yup messier scenes to come. Thanks for the encouragement!
DeleteSo apparently Norton doesn't like it, flags it as a trojan (SONAR.Heruistic) and then proudly announces it has removed a program that was acting suspiciously. It doesn't do this to the 0.3 version.
ReplyDeleteI mean sure there are ways around it but just saying.
No no it's good that you told me really. I believe I exported v0.3 as a zip instead of one single exe like v0.4 that's giving Norton the false alarm.
Deletewhat is the best virus?
Deletethats right, a virus that pretents to be an antivirus program and cant be uninstalled by average pc users
The .exe doesn't seem to want to do anything for me. Just makes my little bastard hourglass spin for half a second then poof.
ReplyDeleteOhh! Just before I published this norton says it protected me from a threat named suspiciously similar to the game. It's really excited about it too.
Hmm I'm not sure why but try to run as Administrator. Else try v0.3 and tell me your findings
Deletenice game!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by!
DeleteGreat game so far!
ReplyDeleteThe h-animations are really nice, but I noticed that each of them feature the person/thing flinging off the lab coat in the beginning, and after the animation the coat reappears. I'm not trying to be nit-picky, but it's just kinda weird to see the coat fly off and reappear over and over again :/
Actually about that, I'm still thinking whether to implement lab-coat as a 'pickup' or an equippable, basically providing some minor bonus defense and all that. Should I choose to do that, I would have to prepare an extra set of all current heroine sprites (with coat and without). Would certainly make the game a little more interesting.
DeleteAlways great to see an update of the alpha! I love back jump and the shotgun ammo as well. i like how it and the regular shot work effectively on different enemies.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of, I'm a big fan of the rat monsters; most people would've opted for something dog-like, but I like how you went giant, mutated rat, with a little greens lime to show they're infected. I have a small issue with their h animation, thought; i'm not quite sure of how exactly they're positioning the heroine. Is he on her stomach and looking back at them, or is she on her back and they're holding her arms, but I'm jut not sure where her legs are going. Maybe they could be splayed out to the side, and she could be kicking at the rat as it rapes her? Maybe it's just me, but it seems unclear. Still, the animation is fluid and smooth, and I like the heroine's new rising up animation.
Also, with the rats, i found they had a difficult time jumping back up to get at me when i was on one of the ledges on the side. They'd only jump and not clear the ledge, making it easy to pick them off. If that's an intended weakness, well done. If not, maybe they could jump a little higher or learn to run and jump to get at the player.
All together, I wish you had a kickstarter or Offbeater or something so we could just give you money to get this thing done! I wanna play a real level!
Long time WT! During the rat animation, the heroine is actually on her side, facing away from the screen, blocking her legs from view. I may introduce zooming for better view but that'll be much later. AI will be tweaked often, feedbacks regarding them is great for me (balancing purposes).
DeleteOffbeatr? I'm not there yet. Gotta first have a substantial beta demo for first impression, which is long ways. How's things at loverslab?
Hate to say it, but i'm still having trouble seeing that position in the animation. But nobody else seems to, so it must be just me then. Either way, the game is still coming along great! As for loverslab, haven't been there in a while. I'm honestly more excited by the work of you and Kyrieru than what's on there.
DeleteKeep up the awesome work!
Could you please upload it to another hoster, because Mega keeps dying off on my firefox
ReplyDeleteI recommend using Chrome for Mega because Mega links have been most reliable so far. I've uploaded more mirrors but I don't expect them to stay up long.
Deletejust thought id say i love the way the char's ass is visible with the rat animation , im a butt guy so ya :)
ReplyDeleteIt's tricky to portray the postures in such low resolutions, was worried thinking if many see what I want them to see. Anyhow I'm glad you see it!
DeleteGotta say, when I saw the pics at first I wasn't too impressed. Kind of surprised when I actually tried it out.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work! I look forward to the complete version, one update at a time :)
Glad you liked it. Will try to keep em' updates regular. In the meantime, I've updated the list of H-game developers to the right. Check out UnHoly Sanctuary, just out today!
DeleteWhenever I try to play, I'm presenting with the main menu screen, but no keys other than my arrow keys seem to do anything. No error with the .exe, tried redownloading, same thing. I can't actually play the game, and to exit I have to alt+tab and kill the process.
ReplyDeleteIt'd be great if you could screencap it for me. I could only say to try and re-download (preferably from a different host from the one you downloaded from), then run as 'Administrator'. If that still doesn't work, try updating your graphics card driver.
DeleteIf all else fails ... try v0.3. I'm in the dark about this, hopefully I could rectify by v0.5.
v0.3 works fine. I don't really know what you want me to screencap, since it doesn't error or anything -- I just can't actually select any menu options. I can scroll through them with arrow keys, but that's it. Running as admin didn't do anything either. I'm pretty much out of ideas.
DeleteOh! Press 'z' key to select the options. I should really indicate that in the next release. I hope that's the case!
DeleteI can't get the thing to extract.
ReplyDeleteYou'll need a WinRar/7-zip extractor to extract the contents. You'll also need to input the password 'dtny'. It might also be a corrupt download. Try re-downloading from the other mirror link :D
Deletewhat is the password
ReplyDeletePassword: dtny
DeletePassword will always be that unless otherwise stated
so i just redownloaded the latest game and the grapics are all messed up and everywere
ReplyDeletesooo im guessing you keep some sort of data somewere else then the game folder. if so were becuse i cant play it now >.>
Are you on win8? Is the same thing happening with v0.3? It'd be great help if you could show a screenshot.
