hi! ive never left a comment on itch before, but i thought maybe id leave some feedback! sorry in advance for the super long post even for a super early version, i absolutely LOVE the game! i cant wait to see whats added with future updates! (also jess is so cuteee)
some things id like to see personally: -slower progression (though i assume this is coming with the new activities and talking to the characters and mood meters and whatnot) -a 'rest day' after birth so you cant breed jess again instantly -some way to gain money other than birthing (possibly by completing the soon-to-be-added activities?) -more nsfw stuff in general! id also like to personally see actual birth scenes but i know that its a huge turnoff for some people, so if added it should probably be toggleable somehow
Heya Froggerest, hope development is going smoothly! I do wonder if you have an updated estimate for the next, uh... Update. If not, what is here is still definitely good enough to keep us occupied until then! Very well done.
Can't say exactly, I'm still not really satisfied with the current state of the next update but I might make a small update soon just to show that Im not dead. That being said Id probably say roughtly next month should be the next major update if everything goes well.
Hey its been awhile from where you are probably if not hi! I'm just here to ask if she has anymore stages now if she does i want to know if we actually move to another space station XD
Oh my! The first version alone had some pretty well drawn sketches, and for 3 days was decent at least but the added polish in the update really is an upgrade. I look forward to continuations!
I'm so glad to hear that you intend on improving upon this. I really did enjoy this simple proof of concept, and it's so rare for a game Jam entry to actually be improved upon, so this is a very pleasant surprise.
I would suggest that the reward per baby be capped at some value, while the passive income have a cost that increases with every purchase. Even if it is just +1 cost per level, it would prevent the run-away growth that's possible. And capping the value per baby is just for logical consistency: no matter how healthy the baby is, it doesn't make any sense that someone would pay 10k each when they start out at so much less than that.
As it is, I spent all of my cash from the first birth on passive income, continued to level that until it was decently high, then spent the rest on baby value until the second birth, then immediately dumped all of the cash from that birth into guaranteed embryos, spent all of my passive income during the third pregnancy upgrading baby value, and then got so much money from the 3rd birth that I saw no reason to keep playing, as it would take a few minutes to spend all of the cash I got from that birth.
Quite fun, and definitely something there, but it needs a balance pass.
Fairly good for what is there. Parroting that income upgrades breaks the game's little progression. There probably should be passive income and money awarded on birth, but it should be capped.
Think monetary income should be mostly relegated to a few mini-games.
The "game"? It's actually pretty good for something made in 3 days, specially with the art it has (i genuinely love it) the only issue i have with it is the fact that well...a pretty obvious thing some people have shown you already and that's the passive income upgrade and it can lead to things like THIS :
Shop pricings could do with some looking over and, as Yttreia mentioned, a scaling cost increase on the passive income and/or a maximum to it and the credits per baby could solve the infinite money scaling problem. Either way, it's got promise.
pretty good. only a few things id like to see. 1: finish up the models. 2: add more belly sizes. 3: some kind of multi-buy option which would allow for us to buy 10 or more upgrades at once. still tho, a nice experience
Yep, joining the others here, the income-related upgrades are OP as hell, definitely needs to have costs scale upward as you buy more of them, AND outpace whatever income they give so you don't get exponential growth. Just going off the passive upgrade, you can start getting infinite money about halfway through the second pregnancy, which is kinda bananas.
As for other comments about it so far:
I like it overall, kinda feels like a really condensed version of an old Flash game I used to play a lot.
Needs more things to do so we're not sitting here clicking Rest again and again and again and again, especially on the first pregnancy, where literally-literally all you can do is click Rest 21 times and that's it. Maybe the first pregnancy can start and progress a little in the intro cutscene, so the first round is only like 10 days, rather than the full 21?
Maybe needs other upgrades? You'd have a couple other stats, like skin elasticity and milk production, there would be shots for these. Skin elasticity allows her to handle larger pregnancies as kind of a cap in size. For milk production, depending on how much milk you make, if you make enough for the babies, everything's fine, but not making enough gets you a percent decrease in profit from the pregnancy (not a huge decrease though.)
While some hyper preg surrogate room-filling fun is good and all, what if there was a mode seperate from the main game where you had to moreso manage her size or risk destroying the station
WOO! You really knocked it out of the park, which is superb considering you did it in such a short amount of time! It shows that you know what's important to focus on in this kind of thing :)
Nicely done. I see you're aware of the credit scaling issue (personally I had more than I could spend by the end of cycle 4). As a suggestion, if you increase the price for each successive upgrade (even just by 1 credit at a time) that should flatten out the growth curve a lot.

hey froggerrest, hope things are going ok with you, love the game and hope to see more in the future :)
God damn, do you intend to say these exact comments on every single jam entry?
it is not loading
Well, I guess too much fertility just broke the game.
I did not even get to press the breed button before having her rest.
Can't say exactly, I'm still not really satisfied with the current state of the next update but I might make a small update soon just to show that Im not dead. That being said Id probably say roughtly next month should be the next major update if everything goes well.
Thanks for the information.
Great game
Should add more girls
Hey its been awhile from where you are probably if not hi! I'm just here to ask if she has anymore stages now if she does i want to know if we actually move to another space station XD
I love this game so much♥
keep working on it please
cheer up!
Just played the new update, and i only love the game more, great work on this game and im excited to see what else you have planned in the future :D
Jess is so cute and sexy! Love seeing her get bigger and bigger <3
I'm looking forward to being able to interact more with her and Ziga, as well as seeing her get even bigger =D
Why doesn't jess get bigger then this the bar gets farther but she doesn't get bigger
Thats her current max size atm, bigger sizes will come later but there are some features that I want to add before then
Oh
Hope i can find out how much until another funny comment by the docter
Like what?
See the What's Next section: https://froggerest.itch.io/project-brood/devlog/743169/version-02-clean-up
Right now she's able to lay on her belly and look proud how many times until she gets bigger?
Can't wait to see what other surrogates we are going get and it be nice to see Jess get even bigger than before
Oh my! The first version alone had some pretty well drawn sketches, and for 3 days was decent at least but the added polish in the update really is an upgrade. I look forward to continuations!
There's a hidden Amogus in the lab
this post is sus <- joke
I felt required to comment that Jess is adorable, Honestly all the characters have great designs!

You have my attention, I wait for an update! Have fun my friend

I got the babies in her to level 10 and i felt so bad with how big she got i just had to get it to 100 to see if if got funnier.

Really cool, I hope to see more in the future.

Fantastic! Cant wait for updates! So far this is a lot of fun
Ngl, this game is one of the better games i have played

Thank You! I was thinking of something like that as a possible solution
Great game! Hoping for more in the future.
