Yo! Welcome to The Curse of Something - a very special text-adventure/rpg game about growin’ huge!
Live the life of someone afflicted with a curse that either makes you super fat or ultra buff. You can go out into the woods and fight monsters, or talk to them and try to make friends - or fuck them.
After the scene with the Bat and the Shark you can find the Shark hanging out at the Pier’s Bulletin Board. If you talk to him he will reveal his surfing secret.
When someone is at the Bulletin Board, the Pier button will alert you
The Angry Shark’s attacks when he isn’t enraged can knock you out if he is above 800 Muscle and significantly larger than you.
The effects of the Mysterious Rogue’s poison are decreased when you are at smaller sizes
The amount of size the Evil Ghost can drain from you in a turn is capped at a certain amount. Also using the Purple Shard Necklace and the Salt make it less likely that he’ll attempt to drain you
The height stat was having a much greater effect on weight loss than I was intending so some things were changed:
Weight loss from being huge is reduced but using energy has a greater effect on the amount of weight lost
Max hunger calculation has been changed and so requirements to win food eating contests and to do food eating work have been altered.
Running/Treadmill energy use is increased and they can be used even if you don’t have enough energy.
The sex scene with the Forest Knight no longer requires you to compliment him - just impress him at the gym and then grapple him. After you go through with the scene (or you initiate it and reject him) you will have to compliment him and grapple him in order to initiate it again.
If after 60 days of playing the game you still haven’t found the Kobold’s Secret Porn Page, he will send you an ad through your Messages
If the Kobold Mage has made progress at the gym after going out with the Komodo Jock then he can be given Cursed Creatine to reset his progress
The game will be updated every month, and if you’re very nice you can subscribe to my Patreon to get updates a month in advance! The Patreon version has another set of the “Muscle Ending” pictures - the Secret-Tier Patreon version has a new enemy, the Treasure Dragon!
I gotz to big for the apartment, and had to go live in da woods.
Though in seriousness, I feel like the height pills being only one inch and you don’t get anymore once you run out is kind of a pain tbh. I get Big but I don’t want to be super big.
True. The forest is pretty brutal in the beginning, but instead of making the enemies easier, I would rather make it a bit quicker to grow when you’re just starting out.
Pretty fun game so far, really looking forward to future updates for it! I guess it’s kind of early for me to have a definitive impression on it so far, but I definitely enjoy that it’s fairly possible to see much of the content right away without having to grind for hours on end.
I’d say my favorite thing so far though is the growth mechanic with the Forest Knight, which I only found out because he was too precious to beat up when I first encountered him~
You have something great here and hoping for it to grow bigger. Is the alligator pirate the only one who can grow fatter? Do you have plans to do more weight gain for enemies or for them to cause the player to gain?
If you found the Vampire Bat, he’s another enemy that can grow fatter. Also next month, in the Patreon version I’ll be releasing the Cobra Warlock and he’s focused on making the player fatter.
Why isn’t the option to run away available when you enter the fight? You could make it even more interesting if there is a random chance your foe catches you and makes you pay by enhancing or decreasing the curse’s effect based upon which kind of curse it is.
Love this game. I maaaaay have stayed up until 2 AM playing it last night because my dumbass character was on A Roll.
One thing I’m wondering, though - I’m having trouble figuring out what to do with the book after reading it. The instructions seem to imply something to do with the dick curse guy; do I have to activate his orbs?
I spent a good while reading it, to the point where I got the “something happened” message and the weird e-mail, but I can’t figure out where to go from there.
