Breeders of the Nephelym: Alpha

Quality of Life/Gameplay Suggestions
This is kind of a dump of everything I've thought of as I've played. I'll preface this by saying that I fully understand that some of these aren't easy to implement - just food for thought as you continue on with development. With that said, some of these should be really easy to implement (e.g. turning off Breeder visuals, if you can find a sane keybinding for it.)

- Allow turning off visuals for the Breeder
-- Like the Illusion games - you can turn off body, stick, or both. Lets you enjoy the creature bodies fully.
-- I'll take this opportunity to give a shout-out for the visuals in general - this has strong potential to be better than the Illusion games I've played on that alone.

- More active breeding
-- Pleasure gauge, position change, etc. Again, I've been playing Illusion games. :p

- Slider for inflation amount
-- It's not even visible on larger creatures that I can tell, and it's pretty subtle on smaller ones. I want to fill a colossus up like a water balloon! :P
-- I'll take my maiesiophilia and show myself the door...

- Multi-select for most lists
-- Specifically, when I want to turn in various creatures to the Emissary or clean creatures, I have to click-confirm-click-confirm-click-confirm ad infinitum. This is obnoxious. I should be able to select multiple creatures and perform an action on all the selected ones, as long as it's an action that can be applied to multiple creatures.
-- Along the lines of the above, this would let you view your creatures in the Emissary's view so you can check what the stats are. You can sort of do this now, but if you accidentally hit the yes button... rage-inducing to lose a good creature. :(

- More variety in colors and body shapes for creatures
-- I understand that this one is probably further down the road, but right now all the creatures of a race pretty much look alike other than scale and color, assuming similar busty/buttsome stats ("buxom" refers to breasts too. Threw me off the first time I saw that. :D)
--- This might just be me being impatient, and I'll be able to do it with items once those come in.

- Split Sylvan into two groups.
-- I'd suggest Sylvan (Elf/Slime) and Goblinoid (Orc/Goblin,) or something similar that fits the theme - I'm not good with that stuff. It just ends up being a lot of stuff in a single group, for me at least. Not sure where you'd put a goblin camp on the map... maybe the lake heading towards the dragon area?

- Have a switch when breeding to disable impregnation.
-- It's tedious when you have a L1 creature with the exact trait you need but something that limits XP gain, and you need to wait 4 days every three mating attempts to go through the pregnancy (and, of course, you end up with more creatures to manage that you may not want...)

- Allow camera rotation/movement in breeding view.
-- I'm specifically talking about the screen where you choose the giver and the receiver.

- More field breeding positions!
-- Have a random chance to mix in any of the positions you've learned from the Enlightened One.
-- On the flip side, I'd also like the lifted position to work for breeder vs. smaller creatures. The animation's there - it's what you use on goblins, right?

- Built in map with position, please.
-- I spent entirely too long in the orc encampment trying to figure out how to get through the gate and get to the portal that I knew was nearby.

To disable impregnation, I usually breed with something with no traits myself and then breed again with the offspring, (Incest, a game the whole family can play). That makes a Abomination that is usually sterile. I do that until I can get a Futa one so it can breed with male or female just to bring it's levels up without the possibility of a pregnancy.

I do agree with the Sylvan problem though. It's been brought up several times in the past and I was hoping that this update would have split the accommodation to allow for it. At the moment, there are too many species of Sylvan for just one hut while allowing for variations for breeding.

Isn't there still a setting in Options to disable pregnancy? If I remember correctly, it still allowed offspring but took off the pregnancy wait. The last I was able to play, it could be changed through the ingame menu at any time...

I mean, the first is what I've ended up doing, and while the second is certainly an option, it has the downside of creating a lot more critters that I need to sort through with the terrible UI. And of course, it also has the downside of not giving me the pregnant creatures - which is obviously a thing I'm into here. :p

By far, this is the one I need the most. But all suggestions you gave are great.

Some suggestions

1. A Tutorial mission/mission objectives

essentially, give me tasks to know what the heck i'm doing, where to go, who all the main characters/players are, and pretty much locate everyone. Hell I'll be fine with a map/mini map with locations of NPC's. also maybe even a waypoint system so I can follow some kind of indicator to my next objective.

2. Clothing options

I found that I could "change" clothes by selecting a premade character and running off of them. But I never saw an option to actually choose clothes. This would help give my character some kind of individuality.

3. D*ck size adjustment

I haven't seen one in the create a character, but It would be nice to give my futa girl something outside of an average human length. I'm not asking for something thats Ridiculous, just a choice of having either long dong johnson, or less.

4. Masturbation? (don't know if this is in game or not, I haven't gotten that far yet.)

Honestly, I would like this game a lot, but there's just a lot missing. :/

Might be hard to achieve and still make the game work, but REALLY wish that turning off futanari and enabling the option to turn males into futanaris didn't just negate the latter option entirely. It seems like an oversight, frankly enough, but as someone who really can't stand either, it's a mighty hell to endure, tell you what. But like I said, it's hard to actually find a solution to without completely making the breeding aspect of the game impossible.

As it currently stands now, though, the option to remove futanaris and the one to turn males into futas needs to be more compatible and not contradict each other. I'd suggest changing "turn males into futanari" into a simple option to enable males or not.

ehhh. They're pretty much mutually exclusive, no? "Give me futa but don't give me futa." It might be worth making the options explicitly exclusive - turn one on, and it turns the other off (or locks it) to make it more clear that you can't have both at once.

A possible solution, if there's a clever modder out there who knows how to deal with the engine (Radiant, I guess? And I've seen the file format in another game that has mesh replacers, so this is at least theoretically possible,) is to replace the mesh for the twig 'n' berries with something that's either blank, invisible, or functionally invisible. I can do some 3D modelling, but I wouldn't know the first part about how to actually get a model (or lack thereof) into a file that'd be usable by the game.

I assume that's the part that actually bothers you at least, rather than the existence of males overall. Getting rid of males entirely means that your breeding career will be short and very... uhh... "abominable" :p

I'd like to see that in character creation. Having a human character with a 12 inch+ dong is just ludicrous.

Not to mention that if you're unclothed, it's permanently hard. Adjust it together with the Lust stat. When the lust runs out, it goes soft to make it obvious that it's not going to play any more.

I thought this was already a thing... Is it not anymore?

Not from what I can see. My character has a permanant boner even with the lust bar empty.

Hmmm.... I wonder if that was an intentional change or an oversight of some sort...
