Ironically, this game reminds me a lot about an idea I had several years back that I couldn't ever execute on. While my game was not open world nor sported a create-a-character system (rather, it had a set of 7 pre-designed characters you could choose from, some male, some female), I had a similar idea to approaching battles. Both player and enemy had both HP and Arousal and you could use attacks targeting either one to obtain victory (or be defeated if the enemy got you). There were many different pieces of clothing that served as your equipment, raising your resistance to both physical and sexual attacks. Some enemies could steal or destroy pieces of clothing as well. I also planned for certain pieces of clothing to block certain attacks, which is why the stripping mechanic was important in my idea. For example, something like pants or even panties would block an enemy from fingering the player until out of the way.
Unfortunately, it was too ambitious for me to pull off, so at the advice of a friend, I switched gears to a simplified version of the concept (which I still haven't made much progress on either). Rather than both types of attacks both ways, my latest attempt involves players having to do physical attacks to knock out assailants and all the assailants doing sexual attacks to arouse the player.
