I can see the second ones is a fairy like you been teasing and the fourth seems to be a Lamia but what's the third one supposed to be is she a human like Bella? oh also have you come up with names for the newbies yet?
The game is pretty fun, are there any plans to add any ambience sound? also I noticed there was some weird popping sounds whenever audio started or stopped like each footstep but I'm not sure if that's an issue on my end or not
- SUGGESTIONS BY SURREAL MAYHEM ----------------------------------------------------- - More Burp Sounds and lenght (i have a folder) - More Belly Sounds (i also have a folder) - being able to move the camera around the pred when Eaten - more Pred animations (Patting it's belly/Sitting on the floor/ streching/ Sloshing it's belly...etc - being able to interact with the pred when completelly full - a School ring when the game starts - UI improvements - Different footstep sounds for the player - Maybe Visual Burp cloud Effect - peeking around the corners, useful to spot the Pred without going into it's line of sight
- Students variety ( Visual/hairstyle/accesories..etc) - vending machines - be able to lock the Pred inside a room for a brief period of time - more Pred Facial expressions: Pleased, Annoyed, angry, Feeling full...etc etc - School environment improvement (more details and more students) -make so preds can eat 4 people at max, and after that they lay down or knewl for a bit while they digest the 4th prey so it can Walk again
camera movement when eaten will be in the next update.
other pred animations can't really be added due to the different sizes of the pred's belly. Some animations wont fit certain sizes and doing checks on the sizes for specific animations would most likely be more work than necessary in a stealth game.
Like, when the pred are full and they wouldn't chase you, you could ask them to Rub their belly, pat it, and there could be a burp in the face too, classic
Dont know if this was commented already but. Could you make so you can hide under desks or in some lockers and to not make it a get out of jail free card maybe Bella will start checking those places after the first bell rings or some other trigger like her seeing you get in or out of those places etc etc
Fair enough, more reliable cover is apreciated. Maybe add a peaking mechanic so I can look to the side without the risk of being seen or at least reduced chances of being seen
So if she eats two people and you're holding an apple or key she won't chase you. But if you drop what you are holding she will chase you and you can lure her to eat a third person
Damn dude, I cant get her to eat more than one without eating me too and getting me a game over. Is there any ppace where you find it easier to bait her into eating the students?
That said will we be able to swap out the student models for like elves or something so they stay small but make sense? I want to stream playing this but having students that could be seen as children is no bueno for that
You can not swap the other students. Maybe in the future I can make an option to have everyone as Pred2 - a pixie. The other students are supposed to be like short puppet background characters
I absolutely love this game. I love tricking her until her belly has eaten three people and then watching her digest them while trying to keep my distance. The risk of her trying to eat me is amazing
Here's a idea. How about that insted of holding F you have to type in a set of keys or maybe it displays a arrow key before moving to the next one that fills up a escape bar or whatever that has to get filled up before getting spat out
That would make it so you could be free when caught guaranteed and lessen the importance of being stealthy to win, which is not what I am aiming for in this game.
Fair enough but still I think there is too much RNG in whether you escape or not. Feels bad when you have the Exit key, wasn't eaten once and then get grabed and your run is over becouse RNG said "Nope"
When you get caught, it is supposed to be game over. The RNG in this case is in your favor for a second chance. If your escape depends on constant additional chances then what I would need to do is make it so it is harder for the pred to catch the player.
Those are the only 3 types the color determines the grade and rarity
Red is the most common it saves you from being eaten by Bella and fill her stomach a bit the more stuff she has in her stomach the longer it take for her to digest.
Green is just a better version of the red apple
If bella eats a crazy apple it will make her start vibrating and starts she will burp out stuff in her stomach it could be useful if she swallowed a key you needed.
So, after playing this game and actually escaping (w/o sound on) I actually have to say this is what I'm looking for in concept for a stealth survival game (w/ vore).
This might be difficult to implement but it might help the player if you could somehow hide under the teacher's desk or a closet so if chases end up in the classroom and our friend Bella strolls in, there's a chance to escape (would also totally wouldn't complain if there's a chance Bella would start checking these spots if you abuse these methods).
Question how does the AI of the pred know when to eat the ai bots? I try to lure her into eating someone else but it seems just a bit tricky of when it will hunt others.
Otherwise fantastic game and survival love it. Would love more belching
I just had the best run of my life I didn't get eaten by bella once I fed her the Crazy apple and escaped with the book
that aside I do have a question since you planning on adding more preds I've been wondering are you only allowed to go against on pred at a time or will it be possible to go against multiple?
- Perhaps there should be a special item held by other preys that you can only acquire if you get them digested and the pred burps it up.
- The key in your inventory UI should also be coloured purple or white .
- The mic in the auditorium could be swallowed by pred and it makes their stomach sounds louder and easier to detect.
- A librarian pred that will eat you only if you make any noise but is otherwise passive.
- A teacher pred that will eat you if you are running in the halls
- A mid-tier pred that can eat you but also would be eaten by Bella. It is extra dangerous to get swallowed by this pred and end up two stomachs deep.
- An item stuck in a pred's belly that you must get swallowed in order to retrieve.
- Places that are only accessible by being swallowed, a pred might carry you back to her dorm and fall asleep to digest for example, then (if you escape) you can take a special item from there. Or a teacher that brings you back to the teachers lounge.
- Items that make a dangerous amount of noise if you carry them.
- Cameras that you can use in security room. A dangerous Principle pred who can use the cameras to find you if you make her angry somehow.
Overall this game is an amazing start. The vore is hot but the game is fun on its own. Vore is an excellent mechanic for a stealth game like this.
These are pretty interesting ideas I think, I doubt any would actually be added considering what the creator has said before but I really like the librarian and teacher pred concepts, though im curious on if you mean as main antagonists (like the current pred) or as extra npcs alongside the main pred
yeah I agree I like the teacher pred concept especially is number 1 on the List. second being librarian, 3rd being Nurse or Truant officer, 4th being gym teacher or principal, and 5th being Janitor/Student
I did manage to escape maybe 3 times. I will say this tho I don't know if it was me just being blind but on one playthrough the keys lead to a deadend I had used every key I could use (that were in unlocked rooms) and half the rooms I could not unlock because the last room I unlocked with a key had no keys in it. so the rest of the time I used trying to retrace and look around the map but could not find any keys
That sounds like it can be frustrating to me. I will make it so the closest key that you can get is seen through walls if you do not find a key within a certain amount of time.
would it be possible to implement a setting/slider for how fast she digests? Not only would it give players an optional difficulty setting but it would also make it easier to see any weight gain throughout a run, and while this is probably a big ask, what about different clothing options for each pred?
have you considered making a forum post on the weight gaming or Eka's portal game section to link here, if you want more people who are definitely into vore to find it that is.
would you be open to someone else doing it for you? like just a post with a link to your game page, so you'd get the credit & publicity ofc :0 I feel like it'd be a big hit at eka's.
Yo, it's me again. The update is really good and increased amount of students(preys) is just wonderful. I also didn't know that there was BE and AE in the first place. I guess with only 3 preys (2 studs and you) it was barely noticeable. After the update I noticed in one of the runs that Bella was different. And I also learned in one of the comments that there always was expansion content. So I was feeding her everything I could and tried to see the difference. After she digested like 3-4 students her ass was BIG. And because her honkers already insanely massive, BE was barely noticeable. But if you keep in mind that green tie that she wears, you will notice that it won't be visible after she digested almost everyone (perhaps a bunch of apples too). Her badonkers just grew so much that the tie is not visible. I also saw a funny thing. After the 4th bell rang, she came after me first and then proceeded to devour every other student. When she was running on the stairs (I hope I said that correctly since English is not my first language), her tits kinda... sticked to her body? Like, they weren't going all over the place as I believe they would've if a person with such milkers will try to run down the stairs without bra irl. I even once saw animation exactly about it. Don't remember the artist tho. I also started seeing crazy apple more frequently which is nice. I tried to make her eat it after she swallowed a student beforehand, but when I hid behind one she just moved around the stud and ate the apple and, I believe, a key too. Perhaps you should do something about her going around the stud and voring you or items? That's if I'm not the only one with such idea ofc.
Maybe you should increase her capacity to 3 people and 1 apple? I feel like just 3 people is rather humble. And I would also try to make her eat 2 preys and a crazy apple to see her shake. I think that would be funny. Or you could make that she will come at you to eat your items even if she already has 2 preys inside. Gonna use that remaining storage space somehow.
As other people mentioned, I think you should decrease the camera shaking when running. You see, we people have neck for a reason. It stabilizes our vision when moving or running. This way the things we see doesn't go up and down when we walk, and when running, our head doesn't shake violently. So perhaps you could look into it?
Personally for me, I think that the idea of not being able to pick items when in chase is kinda stupid. Since the chase goes infinite(or not exactly) until something or someone is swallowed, it would only be reasonable that you would try to grab, say, an apple during chase to give yourself a chance to not be eaten. Yes, you can hide behind a student, but as I mentioned earlier she doesn't always eat the student, but rather run around them and eat you. And a student might not be not too far away from you to try and save yourself.
Also, I noticed that she loses sight of you when you hid behind a stud and she ran around them and you too. I mean that you're moving around the student like Bella does to stay out of her sight. She loses sight of you and goes back into a searching state. If stud stays still, you will be able to go away from her in a direction opposite of the one that she went to. But if that little mothersucker decides to move, you're guaranteed (or I believe so) to get captured.
Also, what is that student select in the settings? Is that a WIP?
In one of your replies you mentioned that you don't plan to further increase the number of studs as that would make the game too easy. I understand your opinion on this subject but still kinda sadge. Perhaps you could do "difficulty modes"? Like in easy mode there will be more students than now currently and some other things to make the game easier. Normal mode is basically how it is now. And hard mode is less preys, less apples and maybe Bella is 5% or so faster? Just an idea tho.
About apples, in my humble opinion minimum amount of apples that can spawn being 2 is too low. Like, imagine exploring the whole map, running around the school opening classrooms to only find 2 apples. Maybe increase it to 4? Or 3? While usually I have around 4-6 apples in my runs, I had a run once where I believe there was only 2 or 3 apples. And I tried to feed her every apple and student in that run. Yeah, that was not poggers.
Also, I noticed that studs and Bella started going into places they weren't going before. Like classrooms, janitors closet, electricity room. Pretty neat. Also makes no place completely Bella-proof. I believe earlier she was only going into bathrooms and auditorium, maybe storage too.
Also I like Bella's current speed. While she's fast when empty (or even more when hungry) I was lucky enough to meet a student and hide behind them. And when I wasn't, I always have apples and keys with me. And man she's so slow when she has 2 preys inside. Sometimes when I tried to make her eat 3 studs, the 3rd stud was going away and Bella just couldn't keep up with me to keep me in her sight. Especially when one of the preys was making an attempt to escape. Then she would often just end the chase and walk away. I had to get her attention then and that was risky, because she doesn't always react to the sound of a key dropping and I could be very close to her after dropping the key and she would the start the chase and almost immediately devour me.
Also, sometimes she tends to swallow you or your items through walls especially in a staircase and bathrooms. I believe the bathroom stalls are non-existent as she just grabs you through one and you didn't even see her. And there's spots on stairs where she can grab you through walls. I'll try to make a screenshot of these spots.
Oh and also in one of the runs, when I was baiting her, she saw me and started the chase, but then ran up the stairs and swallowed someone. And the thing is, the chase stopped but I couldn't pick up any items. And when she started chasing me again, she swallowed my items and I still couldn't pick anything up. Here's the screenshots of that. It looks like I was still in "chased" state when I wasn't actually.
Damn I wrote a whole essay. Sorry if I was yapping.
I looked into the picking up item bug. I cant tell if I already fixed it or if it is some hidden bug that I cant find. Next update will make it so you can pick up items when in chase but I do not know if the bug will be fixed.
I am looking for a solution to the camera shake but it might be possible that I can not get rid of it.
Student select is the player getting to choose who they play as. Not available yet.
The preds and the students were always able to go anywhere in the school. The recently update made the students go anywhere more frequently.
Yeah the preds do not always react to a sound if they previously did. I might make adjustments to this
Good game! Question, will it be free? I'm excited for the updates to come, it would be nice to see updated animations, and AI, The screen shake removed or turned down, maps could go up in difficulty the bigger the map is, and perhaps multiple preds. More preds, more preys, different camera options when eaten, Some kind of survival arcade mode, smth that has replayability cuz it could get boring over time. "You will be able to play as a pred just not the main pred." I'd love to see something like this, kinda like- you eat prey while watching out for the bigger pred. Maybe a lil more expansion when digesting :) w game either way.
Love it! Would love to see what else you could bring with more updates, maybe have the Pred eat the other preys more often. I only have to say that the head bobbing is a bit nauseating, so it would be lovely if that could be reduced, a mechanic such as hiding in lockers would be very neat and helpful, more foods around would be helpful, and it would be nice if our perspective wasn't locked to directly facing forward once we are eaten. I am very excited once again to see the development of this or any other projects you make!
hey! tried this game today, you did a fantastic job,it can actually be scary sometimes which is gud! After i beat the game,i decided to do another round and after she killed me ,the game glitched and kept spectating her,so i think it would be cool if you added an option at the end to spectate her till she eats everyone
No need to find the book currently. The next update with have save data and will save if you escape. All the tips I can think of are in the pause menu - Survival Tips.
When the predator eats it, she gets locked out of eating anything for a long time (at least a minute). You can tell if she is still under its' effects because her body will be twitching and shaking during this time.
Bug: Sometimes after being chased you are permanently locked out of picking up and using items. I believe it happens when the predator is hungry and goes after a different student while in the middle of chasing you.
hmmmm did you hit the 4th bell? she shouldn't be after other students for any other reason, other than a breif period when she gets a lil too hungry, 4th bell is game over time you can't pick up anything while she's running, also once the 4th bell goes off she will remain in that state until her belly is full(yes it does mean she will gobble up as many students as she can fit too even when you are already inside)
I'm sure it wasn't after the fourth bell. She ate the other kid, digested completely and was patrolling as normal with a completely flat belly. I also could not drop items at all from my inventory, because that normally gets locked out while being chased to prevent you from just dropping keys before they're eaten.

The four preds:
The game is near completion. Just some testing and touch ups is next.
Ayoooooo!!!!!!
Email me a Higher res picture please
So it looks like Bella, a fairy, a standard bimbo/gyaru and a naga/lamia
Is this in order of difficulty, or are they just displayed that way?
Let's gooooo! Coming this week hopefully
I can see the second ones is a fairy like you been teasing and the fourth seems to be a Lamia but what's the third one supposed to be is she a human like Bella? oh also have you come up with names for the newbies yet?
can't wait to see the weight gains
can you send a bigger image?
how long will it take to finish, just give your best assumption
I looked away for two days and my guy really did be like "Game's done, just polishing up"
Holy crap man, I was totally expecting this to be cooking for at least a month before another major update xD
The game is pretty fun, are there any plans to add any ambience sound? also I noticed there was some weird popping sounds whenever audio started or stopped like each footstep but I'm not sure if that's an issue on my end or not
No ambience sounds will be added.
I do hear the audio glitch out sometimes as well. This next update might help.
Will we can play with the predators too?
yeah, it's one of the things that are planned to add
Ufff... I NEED IT!!!! And thanks
- SUGGESTIONS BY SURREAL MAYHEM
-----------------------------------------------------
- More Burp Sounds and lenght (i have a folder)
- More Belly Sounds (i also have a folder)
- being able to move the camera around the pred when Eaten
- more Pred animations (Patting it's belly/Sitting on the floor/ streching/ Sloshing it's belly...etc
- being able to interact with the pred when completelly full
- a School ring when the game starts
- UI improvements
- Different footstep sounds for the player
- Maybe Visual Burp cloud Effect
- peeking around the corners, useful to spot the Pred without going into it's line of sight
- Students variety ( Visual/hairstyle/accesories..etc)
- vending machines
- be able to lock the Pred inside a room for a brief period of time
- more Pred Facial expressions: Pleased, Annoyed, angry, Feeling full...etc etc
- School environment improvement (more details and more students)
-make so preds can eat 4 people at max, and after that they lay down or knewl for a bit while they digest the 4th prey so it can Walk again
you have a lot of suggestion
and all of them are good
Someday I might add more burp sounds.
8 is already enough belly sounds.
camera movement when eaten will be in the next update.
other pred animations can't really be added due to the different sizes of the pred's belly. Some animations wont fit certain sizes and doing checks on the sizes for specific animations would most likely be more work than necessary in a stealth game.
I like the idea of interacting with the preds. What did you have in mind?
Like, when the pred are full and they wouldn't chase you, you could ask them to Rub their belly, pat it, and there could be a burp in the face too, classic
Nice! I like that :)
Female Student Year Book Photo (fanmade)
where i can find this?
its fanmade its not in the actual game
yes, that's why i added the (fanmade) on the tile XD
Dont know if this was commented already but. Could you make so you can hide under desks or in some lockers and to not make it a get out of jail free card maybe Bella will start checking those places after the first bell rings or some other trigger like her seeing you get in or out of those places etc etc
no guarantee safe spots even if it is only for a short time will be added.
I do want more reliable cover though
Fair enough, more reliable cover is apreciated. Maybe add a peaking mechanic so I can look to the side without the risk of being seen or at least reduced chances of being seen
Now is there any other predator besides Bella??
There will be 4 preds including Bella.
Ok, thanks
God I love tricking her into eating people
How do you get Bella to devour more than two students?
So if she eats two people and you're holding an apple or key she won't chase you. But if you drop what you are holding she will chase you and you can lure her to eat a third person
I must learn how to do zis
Damn dude, I cant get her to eat more than one without eating me too and getting me a game over. Is there any ppace where you find it easier to bait her into eating the students?
It can be tricky. You essentially need to hug another AI and have them be completely between you and her.
That said will we be able to swap out the student models for like elves or something so they stay small but make sense? I want to stream playing this but having students that could be seen as children is no bueno for that
You can not swap the other students. Maybe in the future I can make an option to have everyone as Pred2 - a pixie. The other students are supposed to be like short puppet background characters
I think the pred is fine just the students is the issue. I'd legit pay you to be able to swap to a different model for the students
interesting to see weight gain on a pixie, actually
I absolutely love this game. I love tricking her until her belly has eaten three people and then watching her digest them while trying to keep my distance. The risk of her trying to eat me is amazing
Is there a way to unlock student select?
Student select doesn't do anything right now. Might be added in the next update
Here's a idea. How about that insted of holding F you have to type in a set of keys or maybe it displays a arrow key before moving to the next one that fills up a escape bar or whatever that has to get filled up before getting spat out
That would make it so you could be free when caught guaranteed and lessen the importance of being stealthy to win, which is not what I am aiming for in this game.
Fair enough but still I think there is too much RNG in whether you escape or not. Feels bad when you have the Exit key, wasn't eaten once and then get grabed and your run is over becouse RNG said "Nope"
When you get caught, it is supposed to be game over. The RNG in this case is in your favor for a second chance. If your escape depends on constant additional chances then what I would need to do is make it so it is harder for the pred to catch the player.
will you ever be considered adding cheats or modifiers to the game like invincibility, invisibility, fast digestion etc.
I have no plans in adding that.
When Bella swallows you, are you supposed to mash F or click it when the prompt comes up?
Hold F
Thanks man!
Good game so far but I'm confused as to what the apples and paperse do. I would apreciate it if someone could explain.
Paper balls useless, Apples save you from being eaten.
there is a red, green and crazy apple. What do they do? Are there any more apple types?
Those are the only 3 types the color determines the grade and rarity
Red is the most common it saves you from being eaten by Bella and fill her stomach a bit the more stuff she has in her stomach the longer it take for her to digest.
Green is just a better version of the red apple
If bella eats a crazy apple it will make her start vibrating and starts she will burp out stuff in her stomach it could be useful if she swallowed a key you needed.
Thanks man
Is there weight gain? Or the pred getting stronger?
There is weight gain, just bait the pred into eating several npcs.
how tho, it's impossible for her to eat them
You have to hide really close behind one of the NPCs when she chases you. It can be tricky at first
when is the next update?
I do not know.
So, after playing this game and actually escaping (w/o sound on) I actually have to say this is what I'm looking for in concept for a stealth survival game (w/ vore).
This might be difficult to implement but it might help the player if you could somehow hide under the teacher's desk or a closet so if chases end up in the classroom and our friend Bella strolls in, there's a chance to escape (would also totally wouldn't complain if there's a chance Bella would start checking these spots if you abuse these methods).
Question how does the AI of the pred know when to eat the ai bots? I try to lure her into eating someone else but it seems just a bit tricky of when it will hunt others.
Otherwise fantastic game and survival love it. Would love more belching
You have to hide behind the student then when she chases you, she'll eat the student instead of you
really? I have been unlucky and always been grabbed. SO i guess try to guide her and hide behind an AI student. Thanks for the tip.
It is pretty hard to do, but i might be doing it wrong, I haven't been very successful when I try it
I would not say hide behind them. Do not crouch behind them. You make sure they are directly in front of you when the pred gets close.
I just had the best run of my life I didn't get eaten by bella once I fed her the Crazy apple and escaped with the book
that aside I do have a question since you planning on adding more preds I've been wondering are you only allowed to go against on pred at a time or will it be possible to go against multiple?
After beating pred4 you will unlock a mode called 2 Random which puts you against two random preds
Nice sounds like a challenge I like the fact its random that sounds like it could come with surprises
can the preds interact with each other in anyway?
no they can not.
Do you need to beat the game with the book?
The book doesn't do anything at the moment
You just need to go out the exit with the book
you can't exit without the book?
You can but in a future update, when you exit with the book, it will count as a bonus completion.
A few small gameplay ideas I had:
- Perhaps there should be a special item held by other preys that you can only acquire if you get them digested and the pred burps it up.
- The key in your inventory UI should also be coloured purple or white .
- The mic in the auditorium could be swallowed by pred and it makes their stomach sounds louder and easier to detect.
- A librarian pred that will eat you only if you make any noise but is otherwise passive.
- A teacher pred that will eat you if you are running in the halls
- A mid-tier pred that can eat you but also would be eaten by Bella. It is extra dangerous to get swallowed by this pred and end up two stomachs deep.
- An item stuck in a pred's belly that you must get swallowed in order to retrieve.
- Places that are only accessible by being swallowed, a pred might carry you back to her dorm and fall asleep to digest for example, then (if you escape) you can take a special item from there. Or a teacher that brings you back to the teachers lounge.
- Items that make a dangerous amount of noise if you carry them.
- Cameras that you can use in security room. A dangerous Principle pred who can use the cameras to find you if you make her angry somehow.
Overall this game is an amazing start. The vore is hot but the game is fun on its own. Vore is an excellent mechanic for a stealth game like this.
These are pretty interesting ideas I think, I doubt any would actually be added considering what the creator has said before but I really like the librarian and teacher pred concepts, though im curious on if you mean as main antagonists (like the current pred) or as extra npcs alongside the main pred
either way really cool ideas dude
yeah I agree I like the teacher pred concept especially is number 1 on the List. second being librarian, 3rd being Nurse or Truant officer, 4th being gym teacher or principal, and 5th being Janitor/Student
Giving other students items is something I might add.
The mic being an item I might consider.
actually really looking forward to this being a game actually started and didn't stop for like 6 hours
Glad you liked it. Did you escape?
I did manage to escape maybe 3 times. I will say this tho I don't know if it was me just being blind but on one playthrough the keys lead to a deadend I had used every key I could use (that were in unlocked rooms) and half the rooms I could not unlock because the last room I unlocked with a key had no keys in it. so the rest of the time I used trying to retrace and look around the map but could not find any keys
That sounds like it can be frustrating to me. I will make it so the closest key that you can get is seen through walls if you do not find a key within a certain amount of time.
would it be possible to implement a setting/slider for how fast she digests? Not only would it give players an optional difficulty setting but it would also make it easier to see any weight gain throughout a run, and while this is probably a big ask, what about different clothing options for each pred?
I do not plan to make a custom difficulty for each pred.
different clothing is something I want to add but I do not know if I will have the time to add it.
Will bella be the weakest among the other preds you plan to add?
I want her to be but players might find ways to deal with the other preds.
are there any cheats i could use?
Bella's Year Book Photo ( Fanmade)
this is amazing art! I hope the creator sees this!
Damn this looks amazing, do you post stuff anywhere else?
i have my Twitter on the top right of the drawing (i'm mainly a gas artist but i love VORE so much too X3)
have you considered making a forum post on the weight gaming or Eka's portal game section to link here, if you want more people who are definitely into vore to find it that is.
No since the game is mainly stealth/survival. Vore is just in it. Also, I do not like posting on forums
would you be open to someone else doing it for you? like just a post with a link to your game page, so you'd get the credit & publicity ofc :0 I feel like it'd be a big hit at eka's.
I would not mind but I would prefer it to happen once the game is complete.
decided to support this game after giving it a try. top notch work so far, can't wait to see where this goes!
Yo, it's me again. The update is really good and increased amount of students(preys) is just wonderful. I also didn't know that there was BE and AE in the first place. I guess with only 3 preys (2 studs and you) it was barely noticeable. After the update I noticed in one of the runs that Bella was different.

Like, they weren't going all over the place as I believe they would've if a person with such milkers will try to run down the stairs without bra irl. I even once saw animation exactly about it. Don't remember the artist tho. I also started seeing crazy apple more frequently which is nice. I tried to make her eat it after she swallowed a student beforehand, but when I hid behind one she just moved around the stud and ate the apple and, I believe, a key too. Perhaps you should do something about her going around the stud and voring you or items? That's if I'm not the only one with such idea ofc.
Maybe you should increase her capacity to 3 people and 1 apple? I feel like just 3 people is rather humble. And I would also try to make her eat 2 preys and a crazy apple to see her shake. I think that would be funny. Or you could make that she will come at you to eat your items even if she already has 2 preys inside. Gonna use that remaining storage space somehow.
As other people mentioned, I think you should decrease the camera shaking when running. You see, we people have neck for a reason. It stabilizes our vision when moving or running. This way the things we see doesn't go up and down when we walk, and when running, our head doesn't shake violently. So perhaps you could look into it?
Personally for me, I think that the idea of not being able to pick items when in chase is kinda stupid. Since the chase goes infinite(or not exactly) until something or someone is swallowed, it would only be reasonable that you would try to grab, say, an apple during chase to give yourself a chance to not be eaten. Yes, you can hide behind a student, but as I mentioned earlier she doesn't always eat the student, but rather run around them and eat you. And a student might not be not too far away from you to try and save yourself.
Also, I noticed that she loses sight of you when you hid behind a stud and she ran around them and you too. I mean that you're moving around the student like Bella does to stay out of her sight. She loses sight of you and goes back into a searching state. If stud stays still, you will be able to go away from her in a direction opposite of the one that she went to. But if that little mothersucker decides to move, you're guaranteed (or I believe so) to get captured.
Also, what is that student select in the settings? Is that a WIP?
In one of your replies you mentioned that you don't plan to further increase the number of studs as that would make the game too easy. I understand your opinion on this subject but still kinda sadge. Perhaps you could do "difficulty modes"? Like in easy mode there will be more students than now currently and some other things to make the game easier. Normal mode is basically how it is now. And hard mode is less preys, less apples and maybe Bella is 5% or so faster? Just an idea tho.
About apples, in my humble opinion minimum amount of apples that can spawn being 2 is too low. Like, imagine exploring the whole map, running around the school opening classrooms to only find 2 apples. Maybe increase it to 4? Or 3? While usually I have around 4-6 apples in my runs, I had a run once where I believe there was only 2 or 3 apples. And I tried to feed her every apple and student in that run. Yeah, that was not poggers.
Also, I noticed that studs and Bella started going into places they weren't going before. Like classrooms, janitors closet, electricity room. Pretty neat. Also makes no place completely Bella-proof. I believe earlier she was only going into bathrooms and auditorium, maybe storage too.
Also I like Bella's current speed. While she's fast when empty (or even more when hungry) I was lucky enough to meet a student and hide behind them. And when I wasn't, I always have apples and keys with me. And man she's so slow when she has 2 preys inside. Sometimes when I tried to make her eat 3 studs, the 3rd stud was going away and Bella just couldn't keep up with me to keep me in her sight. Especially when one of the preys was making an attempt to escape. Then she would often just end the chase and walk away. I had to get her attention then and that was risky, because she doesn't always react to the sound of a key dropping and I could be very close to her after dropping the key and she would the start the chase and almost immediately devour me.
Also, sometimes she tends to swallow you or your items through walls especially in a staircase and bathrooms. I believe the bathroom stalls are non-existent as she just grabs you through one and you didn't even see her. And there's spots on stairs where she can grab you through walls. I'll try to make a screenshot of these spots.
Oh and also in one of the runs, when I was baiting her, she saw me and started the chase, but then ran up the stairs and swallowed someone. And the thing is, the chase stopped but I couldn't pick up any items. And when she started chasing me again, she swallowed my items and I still couldn't pick anything up. Here's the screenshots of that. It looks like I was still in "chased" state when I wasn't actually.
Damn I wrote a whole essay. Sorry if I was yapping.
I looked into the picking up item bug. I cant tell if I already fixed it or if it is some hidden bug that I cant find. Next update will make it so you can pick up items when in chase but I do not know if the bug will be fixed.
I am looking for a solution to the camera shake but it might be possible that I can not get rid of it.
Student select is the player getting to choose who they play as. Not available yet.
The preds and the students were always able to go anywhere in the school. The recently update made the students go anywhere more frequently.
Yeah the preds do not always react to a sound if they previously did. I might make adjustments to this
Btw you changed your pfp? I believe it was Bella or someone and now it's a random student
You've done really good on this, can't wait to see where it goes!
What does escaping with the book do ? i did it and nothing happened
noting atm, but it will do something in later updates
The book ... OF POTENTIAL PLOT!!! XD good luck . i love this game so far!
When's the new update coming out
I do not know how long it will take.
Good game! Question, will it be free? I'm excited for the updates to come, it would be nice to see updated animations, and AI, The screen shake removed or turned down, maps could go up in difficulty the bigger the map is, and perhaps multiple preds. More preds, more preys, different camera options when eaten, Some kind of survival arcade mode, smth that has replayability cuz it could get boring over time. "You will be able to play as a pred just not the main pred." I'd love to see something like this, kinda like- you eat prey while watching out for the bigger pred. Maybe a lil more expansion when digesting :) w game either way.
Only the demo version will be free.
I might not be able to remove the screen shake.
A new map may come way later.
Different angles when the player gets eaten will be added.
You will be able to play as Pred1 and Pred3. Pred1 is this one in this demo.
How much will the full game cost?
I do not know yet.
Love it! Would love to see what else you could bring with more updates, maybe have the Pred eat the other preys more often. I only have to say that the head bobbing is a bit nauseating, so it would be lovely if that could be reduced, a mechanic such as hiding in lockers would be very neat and helpful, more foods around would be helpful, and it would be nice if our perspective wasn't locked to directly facing forward once we are eaten. I am very excited once again to see the development of this or any other projects you make!
I will see if I can do something about the head moving around when running.
The food count is 2-8. I can see if the minimum amount should be increased or the max should be decreased.
I will also see if I can make the camera move to different angles when the player is trapped.
hey! tried this game today, you did a fantastic job,it can actually be scary sometimes which is gud! After i beat the game,i decided to do another round and after she killed me ,the game glitched and kept spectating her,so i think it would be cool if you added an option at the end to spectate her till she eats everyone
Next update will change how the game ends when you lose.
Is there any tips on how to find the book and to evade the pred having a hard time trying to escape
No need to find the book currently. The next update with have save data and will save if you escape. All the tips I can think of are in the pause menu - Survival Tips.
It would be cool if the player could shrink (to the size of an apple, for example) and the giantess could easily catch him.
how are you just watching?
Can anyone tell me what the Crazy apple does? I am clueless as every time I have had it I can't tell what it does.
When the predator eats it, she gets locked out of eating anything for a long time (at least a minute). You can tell if she is still under its' effects because her body will be twitching and shaking during this time.
Bug: Sometimes after being chased you are permanently locked out of picking up and using items. I believe it happens when the predator is hungry and goes after a different student while in the middle of chasing you.
hmmmm did you hit the 4th bell? she shouldn't be after other students for any other reason, other than a breif period when she gets a lil too hungry, 4th bell is game over time you can't pick up anything while she's running, also once the 4th bell goes off she will remain in that state until her belly is full(yes it does mean she will gobble up as many students as she can fit too even when you are already inside)
I'm sure it wasn't after the fourth bell. She ate the other kid, digested completely and was patrolling as normal with a completely flat belly. I also could not drop items at all from my inventory, because that normally gets locked out while being chased to prevent you from just dropping keys before they're eaten.
Thanks. I will look into it.
