Re: Studio S
Stripping your opponent DURING the match would be awesome, and it would open up interesting possibilities like reduced movement speed and increased damage taken.
It would present a significant increase in workload. The artists would need to draw a second copy of
every single animation frame: girl throws a light punch while clothed, girl throws a light punch while unclothed. They'd also need to adjust the idle behaviour. The girl probably couldn't use her hands to protect her modesty while she's actually in combat, because the animation cues would look wrong.
That is actually a rather significant missed opportunity in this game.
The whole thing seems to be a bizarre imitation of fighting game tropes, without considering whether they're actually
appropriate. Many of the design decisions seem to reflect a commitment to
local multiplayer gameplay, which is a very silly concept for a porn game based on blood and rape.
Let the player see sex animations on-demand? Nope! Those moves are
fatalities, so you get to see them only after you've
earned the right by outplaying your opponent and then performing a keyboard combo.
Let sexy animations occur mid-battle? Nope! You can't just take away Player 2's control of their character -- not until they've actually been defeated.
Allow one character to strip another mid-battle, and then apply a debuff to the stripped character? Nope! This is a fast-paced competitive game, so we need to keep things fair and allow for a last-minute underdog victory. We can't award a special advantage to the player who is already
winning the fight.
