I've been working on answering your comments continuously for over two years. It's why I haven't posted any Monster Mind updates! It's the only thing I've been doing. I've been answering comments every day. Some people asked why I posted this Monster Mind game if I had no plans to update it. But on August 14th, 2016 I started answering your comments and reading bug reports and of course, blocking anyone who dared to criticize the game in way which hurt my fragile artist ego. In April 2017 I was about half done answering your comments. And now I'm all done with comments. I'm going to upload a new version of Monster Mind tonight, but first I have to answer more comments.
The new version will appear as a new submission, so do not worry. Your save game will not be deleted. You can carry over your save to the new version with a password feature. Or you can play the old version forever, that is fine too. I will move it into "scraps" after 3 months.
Here are the answers to some common questions:
Q: Your game does not come up, or it keeps freezing. Other Flash games work. Can you fix your game? A: This game uses a tremendous amount of RAM because of the large number of high-resolution sprite sheets. You may only see a little 400x400 pixel Pokemon and think the game is small. But each Pokemon is made of 20 image layers, and each image layer up to 70 different poses for how the Pokemon moves their head or moves their limbs. While each Pokemon's image data only occupies 600 kilobytes of disk space, to play the game your computer has to unpack these images into 200 megs of RAM. With multiple Pokemon, this may be up to 600 megs.
In the options menu, you can reduce the amount of detail in the game. This will reduce the number of Pokemon visible at one time, and remove some details like gems popping out of chests. But, your computer might still not be able to run the game. I am sorry.
Q: Your game keeps deleting my progress. Can you fix your game? A: The save files are managed by Flash, I have no control over this. This works differently on every platform. I would recommend searching the internet for a solution, as this should be common to all Flash games and you might find some good advice. Perhaps someplace dedicated to Flash games, such as itch.io or the Kongregate forums.
Q: My save file got deleted! Is it gone forever? A: Your save file gets saved somewhere crazy in your temporary files like this:
If you are clever, you can figure out where your old and new save files are, and copy the files over yourself. This is hard and you have to be good with computers.
Q: The game accepted my password, but it took a lot of my money and items away! A: Your password changes as you play the game more. Make sure to enter the newest password.
Q: What are the little red/yellow/green meters underneath the Pokemon? A: They represent how pent-up the Pokemon is.
Q: How do I use sex toys? They are not showing up. A: Different Pokemon like different sex toys. If a Pokemon likes a sex toy, there will be a big button you can press.
Q: I don't like the puzzles. Can I just play with Pokemon without solving puzzles? A: If you play long enough, a secret room opens up where you can play with Pokemon to your heart's content. Keep an eye out for it!
Q: I don't like the rank system. Do I have to rank up to see more Pokemon? A: Your rank does not impact anything, it is just a number. If you enjoy the puzzles and want to challenge yourself, you can try to increase it. It will not unlock any content.
Q: I don't like the minigames, I can never win. Do the Pokemon cheat? A: No, they do not cheat, but they have a lot more experience than you. They can all be beaten if you practice. Try not to get discouraged, the Pokemon are are cuter when they win. Also, keep an eye open for a secret room where you can practice.
Q: My completion is only 50.0%, what else do I need to do to complete the game? A: Solve more puzzles, buy more stuff, talk to more Pokemon! Play the game however you like. Have fun~
Q: My completion is stuck at 91.2% but I think I have bought everything. What am I missing? A: Completion is not just about buying stuff. Maybe there's someone you haven't talked to in awhile?
Q: My completion is stuck at 97.1% but I think I have done everything. What am I missing? A: Completion is not just about owning stuff. Sometimes maybe it's about giving something away?
Q: Okay I'm still really stuck and you are not helping at all! Didn't you program this? Why aren't you helping? A: Sorry, come join our discord server at https://discord.gg/ycf6Jzu and maybe somebody there can help you out.
could you perhaps update the shop a bit? i do not like how it is random what is on sale. it makes it hard to buy everything i want for example, i was saving up to buy the giant dildo, but when i finally got enough money, it disappeared from the shop... that is kinda annoying...

i should have worked on the flash game that i wanted to make, though in my idea, to jerk off the pokemon you had to actually move the mouse up and down rather than clicking to control the speed, I think that was a good idea because you can easily choose the speed by clicking faster or slower and i think with my way your hand would get tired too fast
funny how multiple people had the idea to make a flash game where you jerk off pokemon :P
anyways, I hope you're not too overburdened by all the messages, and I hope you keep making amazing stuff in the future

Thanks very much. Moving the mouse up and down is clumsy for a few reasons so I like the clicking motion better. But maybe some day if someone releases a game which works the other way, I will change my mind.
There are a lot of comments, but the attention is nice. I wish I could have spread this out over the past 2 years when I was working on the game! It is a lot to process all at once...

I suppose, but then the game wouldn't have had such a big impact since it'd be like an early access release, people reacting through the whole process and warping the design process away from your vision of it, perhaps
the surprise was nice, I think

welp, I guess that's enough lurking for me (how awkward this can be) time to speak up and boost your morality dammit with TRUTH! >8U
I personally enjoy the idea of items randomly appearing and disappearing, otherwise it wouldn't really be an exclusive sale now would it? gives it one of those "limited time offer" and "while supplies last" kind of vibe...plus it feels HELL of more accomplishing!
Never have I felt such an amazing feeling of accomplishment! that is what defines a game to be worth playing to me...that and the challenge! kinda like that ol toad game on DA haha! (boy was that a hellish one to play x-x)
welp, I guess that's enough lurking for me (how awkward this can be) time to speak up and boost your
yeah I didn't have a problem with that, especially since any items that were" missed" appear later randomly, you even get the stuff back that you feed to grimer in the random cycle

Thank you very much for supporting the design of my shop. It is working as designed, I wanted to give players fluctuating prices and reward players who save their money, as well as savvy players who learn to recognize discounts. Sometimes an item is no longer available when you finally save up your money, and it can be frustrating. But it adds to the excitement when it is finally restocked in his shop again.
That toad game was a nightmare. Ha ha. I respect anybody who had the patience for it~

I'd happily give ten dollars for the eeveelutions to be added. Or I could always come up with a list of my favorites, but I think that there shouldn't be too many pokemon added, cause their personalities are what really makes them fun to 'play' with, at least to me.

Are there plans to add banette? I love how you've used your old established characters, and banette's been in multiple comics. Plus, the guy is like some kind of quantum lightswitch, he turns people on and off at the same time.

like of course there are more characters I want, or tweaks, or blah blah blah, but like, that's true of any and every game, but with this one I'm mostly just kinda sittin' back thinking "finally a sex game where the sex is treated like sex" and "wow hey someone who realizes the puzzles are allowed to be good/hard" and "I wonder if Grimer would fit up Rhydon's cock"
idk I just really liked it and I'm glad it exists like of course there are more characters I want,
I think if you ever do a 1.1 version in the far future (i think you said you wanted this to be the last update, but maybe if you have spare time or are bored one day) I'd love to see a secret achievements kind of thing like "bought all shop items" or "lost 10 gloves" or maybe just a stats system that says how many things you did, in lieu of that,

If I exposed these details to the players, they would simply be frustrated when passwords did not carry the data from one game to the next.
For context, a single 8-bit number (0-256) adds two letters to the password length. Storing things like "Number of gloves lost" or "Number of puzzles solved" would turn an 18-character password into a 30-character password.

I'm kinda mystified by the amount of people complaining about the puzzles being too hard. I'll admit, the first 7-peg I did kicked my ass for about 2 hours (yes, I am petty enough to spend two hours on just about anything if I feel it insults my ability to solve a puzzle) but after that even those are simple enough.
Hoping you plan on making more on top of this game or something new, an erotic-game with good, challenging game play, it's a pretty unique concept in this community.

The puzzles are unintuitive if you haven't done a logic puzzle like this before. Some people will see a Sudoku puzzle, and they will just think, "Well there are way too many empty spaces. So any number can go anywhere! I will just guess." And then they create a contradiction and feel frustrated. But someone like you probably realizes there is a logical progression to these puzzles; there is at least one blue... There is a blue and an orange... Actually there are TWO blues... Which means they have to go in these slots... Which means... Which means...
I think the difference between the people who are frustrated by the puzzles, and the people like you who find them fun, come from whether they approach them as "guess and check" or whether they approach them methodically. I attempted to include a lot of tutorials which demonstrate the methodical approach. But I do not think it is the type of thing you can learn in 2 minutes if you've never seen it before. I'm sorry for that, and I'm really grateful for people like you who find my game fun. Thank you~
2 hours for a 7-peg puzzle is not out of the question! I hope you used a lot of hints, those types of puzzles are incredibly punishing. The only redeeming factor is that they can give you $1,000 or more for a single puzzle, which sometimes makes it worth it
Congratulations on conquering your first 7-peg puzzle, I'm sure Abra was very happy for you :)

A standalone version is feasible but it will take time. The game uses a lot of visual effects that only work with blitting, as they involve manipulation of camera pixels. I have partially worked past that issue with some help from a very smart friend of mine, but there are also some strange visual glitches and crashes which will take time to track down. Maybe some day.
Thank you, I think the discord link was malformed but I have fixed it.

I have a question about Grimer. Whenever I do him a sexy, it leaves his stench on the player. Is there a way you can get rid of the smell before doing more sexy things with other Pokemon, or do I have to gross out two others? Because it makes them leave.

Yes, there are two clever ways to avoid the smell. There are some hints about them in the game, but you might join the discord server and ask other players if they have any ideas. Or if you know anybody else who is playing through the game, they might have an idea as well.

So… the Grimer thing is a spoiler of sorts, I take it? 'cause, yeah. I'm pretty dumb and I can't think of a thing to do with my remote-controlled hand that might get the smell off. (I might know a way to avoid it, in the future, but I kind of jumped in with all fingers and no thought, the first time. :B)

Something weird happened: When I played yesterday, the game ran fine, but today it's super laggy when I play with the pokémon. (The game itself runs normal, but my glove lags way behind, to the point where Sandslash lost his boner when I tried to move to another spot) I closed all other programs, cleared cache, tried a new game, in case the password system caused a rare overflow or something, I even restarted my pc, yet nothing seems to work... By itself I'd just say it's too much for my PC, but as I said, it ran fine yesterday
The only other idea I have, is that my PC overheats and yesterday it ran better because it was night and thus a bit cooler...
Also: I really like this game. All the 'mons and their unique personalities, as well as the rare inclusion of a low sex-drive snugglepup in a sexy game

Okay then so I just need to have a hard puzzle (Which is usually when i get the most because its hard.) and just stay there waiting for the chest bugs to come over and then collect chests for lots of gems so I can buy all the shop items. Also I already figured out heracross and groviles vibrator settings. Heracross' one was easy but I occasionally turn it off when he starts blushing to let him calm down so he doesn't end up cumming because as he said. "That usually happens when i get embarrassed hera." Grovile is first button, add 3 to go fast but not all the fast, Hera is Plus one first button. But press second button when he starts blushing to turn it off and let him calm down before turning bug buzz vibrator back on. but i dont know what other mons besides buizel can use it and what the perfect settings are. also yes smeargle, I did manage to make him come with the vibrator, but i had libido up by 2 stages. or one. but what others can use it and their ideal settings.
