Lizard Game
An emergency landing leaves you stranded on a remote lizard planet. Soon, you find yourself entangled in all sorts of sci-fi intrigue. Why is everyone being so evasive? Where did the captain go? ... and why are all the lizards so hot, anyway?
Note that this game hasn't hit v1.0 yet - the content is all there, but there might be bugs and glitches. I'll fix them as I get to them. Sorry in advance. <3
[ About ]
๐ Lizard Game ๐ is an all-new kinky sci-fi point-and-click adventure game. It has 3 different endings, some light puzzles, a skill system, and a new iteration on my world-famous dialogue WiggleBloop™ system. Depending on your reading speed and your experience with adventure games, you're looking at around 30-90 minutes here, but there's a savegame system.
It's heavier on the "weird sci-fi" than the "porn game" aspects, but that's both in there. The tone is a bit different from my drone games, being less wholesome and more serious, but there's some thematic resonance.
[ Content Note ]
This game contains gently pulsating lights. There is one instance of the screen flashing red (but slowly), in the ship at the beginning, after the crash happens.
The game deals with themes of community, transformation, identity play, and the logic of empire. It has perhaps a little too much socio-economic context. There are mental shifts, but "personality erasure" explicitly does not happen. What does happen is lizards, of a variety of genders, in shiny and impractical clothes.
Depending on the path you take, conflicts and violence can occur - although things will work out in the end. Reality has a habit of melting and stretching a little, this far out from the imperial core. The tone is very different to the drone games, if you're familiar with them, but of course there's some thematic resonance. In the world of Lizard Game, things are bad - but action can still be taken. Action can always be taken.
No sex scenes, but ๐๐๐ obviously. It gets kinkier once you unlock the ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฆ premium skills ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฆ, and start to invest in them.
[ Instructions ]
The whole thing is controlled via mouse (or touchscreen), although a keyboard is useful to have. There's more information in the game itself.
[ Known issues ]
As of v0.3.6 and earlier, some dialogues may display Unicode replacement characters on some platforms. I think this is specific to certain browsers in the web export, but I'm looking into it. Note that v0.3.6 is a hotfix and may have other issues.
In v0.3.5 and earlier, there's some minor weirdness relating to that part where you need a disguise. If you show up in a partial one, you can't get the interrupt that lets you come up with a full disguise - you have to show up undisguised. This is fixed in v0.3.6.
In v0.3.5 and earlier, there is also a broken event flag relating to the part where you meet the villain. Starting the encounter multiple times in different ways leads to some inconsistencies. This is fixed in v0.3.6.
[ Hints ]
There is a lot of side content in the game - exploration and going back to screens you've already visited might pay off. Especially once you've gotten new skills. It's a good idea to keep track of locked options you've seen. If you want some spoiler-ish hints, paste the scrambled text into a website like ROT13.com to uncover it.
One of the endings (PEACE) is relatively straightforward to get, just follow instructions. The other two (WAR and NORMAL) require more exploration. Specifically, you have to qvfthvfr lbhefrys nf n cvengr. Gung zrnaf jrnevat gur qebar fhvg, cyhf uryzrg - gur onegraqre pna uryc lbh punatr onpx vagb gung. Lbh arrq gb fjvgpu bhgsvgf gjvpr.

And for NORMAL, you need a lot more context, from two specific characters... bar vf Gryv naq bar vf gur Cvengr Dhrra. Cyhf bs pbhefr gur unaqcevag gung qbrfa'g rkvfg.

Lizardly slurping up some high-protein bugs:
Refunding skills resets your lizard skills but doesn't recover the points you spent on getting lizard skill points, so not only is the exchange one-way only, but you also lose all of them if you scrub your mind clean.
Also, I think I got the NORMAL ending despite loading a savegame that should have reset me to a point before having talked to one of the two specific characters who might have been necessary for that ending, so in short, I think an older save file retained variable states from after that save file was made.
A fun little romp with some cheeky glances at some kinky things. Got the Peace and Normal ending so far, really should probably invest more in Lizard Skills and see what else I can find.
At a glance, the only real bugs I ran into was occasionally dialogue would stop before it was fully printed (but then it stopped doing this at some point?? it might be to do with text speed and if dialogue choices appear), some dialogue with Teli used the protagonist's tanktop expression rather than blush if I had 2 Lizard, even though I wasn't wearing the tanktop, and a Harper portrait fails to show for the "Cool" version of asking about Teli.
Played the game, absolutely loved it! There's a lot of great inspiration from Disco Elysium, and the Normal skill is amazing, I absolutely love the flavor and the trippiness.
Just finished all 3 endings wee, always love the humorous tidbits you put in thoseโค๏ธ
Now I just need to find what having 5 in lizards do.
Played through it and got the Peace ending, I'll probably try again for the other two as well at some point. This is cool!
Pirate queen doesn't seem to notice whether or not I'm disguised after the first dialogue. I don't know if she's giving me different dialogue because she thinks I am disguised or because she thinks I'm not.
Also Reality Lowdown seems to not be getting counted? Either that or the other thing isn't.
Egh, that's a broken event flag, my bad. There's supposed to be two flags here, but the game only ever checks one. I've pushed a hotfix (v0.3.6), though that specific savegame might be broken. Thanks for the report.
Yeah, it seems to work now, though I approached it delicately like I do with any bug, haha. Didn't trigger the flags until I was ready to do both, etc.
While we're reporting bugs, specifically the lizard response to Teli complimenting your snout, it has no icon and is titled "lizard;Harper"
I understand a lot of the character art was placeholder sketch, but I honestly like the vibe of Harper in particular being sketchy? Like she's there but not very solid, a force that's indistinct because of... well, you know why.
Another wonderful point'n'click game, neat to see the little art bits for the characters. I love how each game has bits and pieces of similarity. But their very different in their own ways. ...If that makes sense-
and this is someone who doesn't really take interest in such a genre.
first time I got the 2nd ending, now I'm trying for the 3rd.
They're kinda short, but that actually makes them more enjoyable. They don't stay their welcome for too long in a single playthrough, whilst still having a decent amount of replayability.
Tiny bug I found, (Translated to rot13 for the minor spoilers):

(Edit 8, no major spoilers. Just conclusions (as of 1/11/2025 at-least). Along with a few ideas. Anything distorted/possibly slightly spoilery is in bold and rot 13): Despite the few bugs, this was a very fun experience, I wasn't too lost in the story. I had a few 'oh dear...' moments when I realized what was about to happen. And I was wrong about a few guesses, but they were solved only a little later in the story. And I love how most things are tied together. I loved the references, I think I got at least 2 of them- (Haqregnyr jvgu gur 'Vgf lbh', naq 'vgf fgvyy lbh' zveebe) and Metroid for... Obvious reasons.

Thank you for the kind words (and the feedback!) There'll be a release with some bugfixes in the next few days. The replacement characters you've mentioned in the edit 2 are unfortunately platform-specific, that's why I didn't catch it in testing. Whoops. Something to fix!
Ah- good to know. I run on Chrome sooo- yeah- also. Bunch 'o new edits โจ
Yeah, I think it's Chrome-specific, but that's the most popular browser, so I'll have to look into it. Thank you for the kind words, and thanks for all the bug reports. <3 This stuff should be fixed in the hotfix I've just pushed. Launch day, eh... thanks so much!
Glad to help :D I made my edits before the hotfix, so I have restarted my browser now and am looking things over.
Wait- I got a message that... May or may not be intentional? Is this intended or have I tripped a debug message? (Rot13)
