For those who aren't in the Discord or on the Patreon too, there's actually been a change to the game a month or two ago too; Triangulate said he's ok with having a yuri animation or two in the game, so we will have that in the game at some point, highly likely between Talia and Faye.
So you finally cave in and added yuri. Good...Goood.

First, this game's really come leaps and bounds since I last saw it. The controls were always pretty tight and the artwork and voice acting (particularly for this type of game) were solid, but before this level the gameplay didn't really grip me and I mostly found myself just running through the maps ignoring the enemies.

Second, where on Earth is the third h-cutscene? I got the stuck-in-wall and Faye/Talia trapped ones but the third eludes me even though I'm pretty sure I've explored everywhere so the only thing I can think is I have to do something in some specific order unless I missed something very obvious.

Glad to hear you're enjoying it more!

There's the Faye machine sex one on P3M3 in the bottom right corner :) There's also the boss sex machine setup, too, if you want to count that as a fourth.

Thanks a lot; I have to say, I've seen your MUGEN edits around the web and they're all high quality stuff, you ever consider starting up your own game?
​​​​​​
Well thanks!

I've thought about it, but I dont think I have the time or resources to really try it at the moment as a 1MA. It's probably something I might be able to do in the future though, but i'd probably need more people or else production would probably take forever or i'd have to accept a hit in quality.

Well, if you'd ever like to try, I run an adult games development discord with about 900 people in it, from programmers to artists, writers to translators, musicians, voice actors, marketers, animators, modelers, sound effects specialists, you name it, so I'm sure you'd get lots of takers to work with you given your skills!

Very fun game with nice scene and gameplay~

But will you include a guide or walkthrough in the future, or a txt with the h-scene or a all clear save and where to find them in the full release?

We're still on the fence about this; there will definitely be a way to re-watch/replay any of the databanks, cutscenes, game over sequences, regular animations, etc. that you've seen before in the full game, and it'll list where you found those scenes and if you're missing ones as well and where the missing ones are located.

As far as a full walkthrough or all possibilities possible being listed in the game, it would probably be a 50+ page document if we had to list out everything in detail, so we're still debating if we want to try and stuff something like that in the game or even in a document, it would primarily depend on interest in such a thing as it'd take up a lot of time to document all that stuff into a readable form.

Now when you say yuri... You mean something like scissoring... or... Talia grows a penis... Because I'm fine with either one. Tri is one of the best I've ever seen, even before he was working on this.

It would definitely be something like scissoring, cunnilingus, fingering, something of that nature, so no futa or growing of body parts or anything like that :p

If you ever decided to, I would be one of those guys that's very okay with it. So long as she isn't penetrating men.

Wow. This is quite a game you've got here and I'm a BIG fan of sprite-based 2D side scrollers (especially Metroidvanias) so don't mind me just gushing about it for a bit. I think it might just be one of my favourite H games I've played in a long time, and it's not even finished. Sprite work is top-notch (I dig the character designs and the detail on the actual sprites, as well as how smoothly she moves is really nice.), the writing genuinely got a few giggles out of me and the gameplay felt pretty tough but manageable even for someone with very limited platformer experience for the most part. Biggest thing I can say to this game's credit is the commitment to voice acting. I respect that decision immensely. Not gonna lie, I didn't believe the credits at the start when it said Guru Larry voiced something in game, but when I found his voice it put a big dumb smile on my face! Overall, the voice acting was very well done. And that's not a "well done by H Game standards" but a "Well done." with a capital W and a big fat full stop. You guys did good.

This demo was a lot of fun to explore, having terminals with lore and NPCs with mini-stories littered around made me want to hall wug my way through the entire game so I didn't miss anything. I like the decision to write the game like a traditional RPG. More than a few times I'd read a terminal then have Talia react to the NPC that terminal referred to because she knew them now. I REALLY like the H animations, in particular the Jumper Bot (nude) and Security Bot (nude) were right up my alley. Tenouttaten on those. The Game Over scenes were also really amusing. The various ways that Talia had to bumbleking her way out of the predicaments she ended up in had me grinning ear to ear.

I don't really have a lot to say regarding flaws honestly. In my experience, the game ran very smoothly once in play (I was playing on a pretty crappy PC so I had to turn off much of the settings in the options menu. Thanks for including those options, btw.) I felt like having only 4-5 enemies with 2 animations and scenes each made things feel somewhat repetitive over such a long stage but the quality of the animations that were present, along with the cutscene events, definitely made up for that. Some of the room layouts felt a little cruel (it took me a WHILE to get through that room that needs you to freeze the 3 claw robots as platforms to reach the gravity switch, then platform down with the cannon blasts while upside down) but maybe I didn't notice a much simpler solution that I should've found. I forget if that room was optional or no either.

All in all, really good work all of you. I eagerly look forward to seeing the finished product.

I can promise it's definitely not penetrating men; right now we're heavily leaning towards Talia x Faye, but there'll be some Vie x enemy scenes too :D

Thanks a lot for the praise, seriously, it probably sounds cliche but every time I read something like this from someone who really enjoyed the game, it makes me smile (and the same goes for the rest of the team, too). Knowing that we're having that kind of an impact on someone playing the game means we're on the right track, and although we've got a lot to improve on, getting positive feedback like this really means a lot to us!

As far as the hard room layouts, yeah, the freezing of the bots and jumping around that room (P6M4) is completely optional, it's just to access two secret areas; every level will have two or three "optional hard mode" areas to access secret events, but we'll never lock sex scenes behind these, only collectibles and other similar things.

I love how this game is coming along. The amount of content, the quality of the mechanics, the abundance of skillfully voiced dialogue, and the near perfectly tuned difficulty could easily see this becoming a top 10 hentai game all-time.

Specifics notes:

1. The minimap and its design makes what could otherwise be a frustratingly huge level quite manageable.

2. Back to difficulty, I found myself consistently engaged but not stuck anywhere. That is a REALLY hard balance to manage. The enemies, the puzzles, and the platforming were all just hard enough to be interesting but not punishing enough that I got stuck anywhere for more than a few minutes.

Glad to hear you're liking it so much :D

For the minimap, we actually plan on improving the map system with the mega-map (found by pressing ESC) by adding icons to it to indicate databank locations, powerup locations, end-path objectives and if they're done or not, that sort of thing.
Also happy to hear you're finding the difficulty balanced; I can't promise we'll nail that all the time with every level, but we're going to try our best to make it a good balance of "this is going to take actual skill to beat" and "if you don't have the skill to beat this, we'll offer an alternative solution" design.

In general, that's what we want to do with our games, is always offer a duality of experience;
- You can choose to ignore the story and bypass most of it, or you can get really into it and check out all the cutscenes and databanks
- You can mute voice acting not only as a whole while leaving other audio intact, you can do it by gender (if you only want female or male voice acting, essentially the main characters vs the NPCs), and you'll eventually be able to do it by character
- You can engage with enemies directly by just killing them, or you can choose to avoid them, with enemies setup with tactics to interact with you in either playstyle

And a lot of other things like that in general is how I like to design games, so that players of a wide variety of skillsets and interests and playstyles can still enjoy the games I work on without feeling neglected or ignored.

For anyone who can't run the game for whatever reason, here's a lower quality, browser-based version of the Electric Level demo! (The full game will be getting OSx/Linux ports.)
