I played the prequel around an hour ago and I thought it was REALLY unique, I've never seen a tentacle porn game with such interactivity. Also I should mention now that I only played the in-browser version on this very page, in case any potential players are reading my long ass comment considering to play this. I played through the first, maybe, half of this game? I say that because I got a bit frustrated after learning there was no save system when I accidentally lost. Not wanting to restart the game over again, I decided to quit. Looking at the game jam's screenshots, (congrats on winning btw!) the rest of the lewd scenes seemed pretty much the same to me as the first game (but I could be wrong), and that on its own is honestly amazing! It's one of the best porn game mechanics I've pretty much ever seen. Usually during sex scenes in most other games, you're bound to the position that the devs made, only being able to control speed or what happens next if it's a VN. For how small a game this is, I still have a lot more to say about it lol

• All the minigames at the beginning are kind of annoying and tiresome to play with all the back and forth mouse movement - to me, this core mechanic is sort of counterintuitive especially for a porn game, where players will be spending most of their energy jerking off. I think it would be better if that rapid mouse movement only applied to when the tentacle is actually fucking the girl, like in the prequel. The prequel had a unique 3D puzzle gameplay style where you'd have to move limbs in a certain way to access another body part, it'd be cool to see more of that
• I did not like the part with the 3 mini tentacles. Again, it could've been a browser thing, but selecting them didn't always work, which on its own wouldn't be too bad but the "time is running out" mechanic didn't really help.
• Add a save system, or at least some sort of checkpoint. If you have a lot of dialogue in a game, there should be a save system. Nobody likes restarting the entire game if they mess up
• Models were a bit too simplistic, I know that this was made probably under a time crunch for the game jam, but for the majority of the beginning the tentacle monster is this purple little gumdrop. Maybe give it eyes like how the characters mentioned it can see, make it a translucent slime, something easy like that to spice things up. Doesn't have to be anything crazy like Cthulu himself, though that would be awesome lol. Tentacles themselves also looked very simple. It's not really a bad thing, just really simple. It might be nice in the future to see them less straight with bends and more round? Not sure how possible that is, I don't know how to make games
• This is a very subjective nitpick, but I actually prefer the prequel's girl character. This scientist girl looks a bit off, maybe slightly uncanny idk. But ay, she has interactable clothes which is a huge plus!
• SOUNDS. Maybe it's just a browser thing There weren't really many sounds for what was happening, especially with vocals from the girl. There's a lot of free sound libraries that you can use without fear of copyright, I bet the lewd SFM/animation community has quite a few, that's the first place I'd look. Hell, you can even make some sounds yourself (maybe not the voice-acting ones, but the ones with wet and wriggly-ness, do some research, you'd be surprised)

I love these 2 games, and I see a mountain of untapped potential for a major successor. You've already played around with applying the tentacle monster with some science or magic, so why not lean into it more? Imagine the next game takes place at a lab that combines sci-fi with lovecraftian magic from another time/reality, maybe with the goal of evolving humanity to the next stage... But the tentacle monsters have something a bit sexier planned. BAM! I came up with that just now, feel free to use it.

I want a free roam version of this game as much as the next guy, it would be AWESOME! Doesn't need to be anything huge, you could make the lab as small/big as you want. Maybe when the tentaculord breaks out of its cell or whatever, you would be able to climb around and fuck different women. The more you fuck, the more limbs or abilities the player gets. Perhaps there could be power ups for completing certain challenges or properly romancing specific characters (maybe each person has a different kink that the player can find by snooping around the environment), where the tentaculord would secrete a love-potion esq substance that turns the women aphrodisiac and unlocks secret scenes. Maybe the women would have clothes that instead of the player simply clicking to disappear, the tentaculord would physically pull them off, rip/tear through them, or slide underneath them (a possible stealth game mode would include more of the latter). Tentacles themselves could have a wider range of things to grapple onto, maybe slithering around the girl's body caressing her skin. There could be a TON of customization options too, maybe players could change what color their tentacle monster is, how translucent or slime-like they are, stomach/cheek bulging, amount of cum, if the tentacles have actual suction cups or are similar to tendrils.

I got very carried away lmfao my bad. But seriously my guy, you are sitting on a potential goldmine. Most porn games are either trash, clones, or unfinished, but you have something truly unique on your hands. Tentacle porn isn't showcased much among the game industry, and when it is, it's not all that good. If you were really to make a third game with even a fraction of these ideas, take it one feature at a time, try it out n see what you can do, and most importantly don't burn yourself out! Thanks for reading lol

How do I stimulate the Pentacles? It shows the dialogue but nothing is happening.

I can't get it to progress in my browser, and can't read the text on my PC because the window is too small :(
