Slay the Spire - Claire Redfield

---

Claire Redfield from Resident Evil series.

 

NSFW

 

Installation:
Put it on the mods folder in the game directory, might need to be subsribed to the usual sts mods: stslib, basemod, modthespire.

 

Ammo System:

Gun cards use Ammo, so pick some ammo cards, Bosses can be hard without Ammo.

 

Reaction System:

Choices and reactions on some attacks, automaritcally played when created.

 

Corruption system:

Picking lewd actions will give you corruption, most lewd acts require a certain level of corruption to see/unlock everything you need higher levels of corruption, but chances you will have harder time as well.

 

More than 100 cards, counting status and choices.

 

Please report any bugs or imbalances if you spot any.

 

 

Chinese localization:

Thinking of buffing the Rocket Launcher and giving it Fleeting, what do you think?

[Pândroth]

Hey Like the mod played some rounds. Is there a way to add the Lewd cards to the loot pool maybe when you get more corruption?

[Pândroth]

Oh I forgot also is there a way to mark the lewd cards for visual refference?

Currently the only way is every 5 corruption, it prioritieses the ones you dont have.

Yeah, I thought about it and it can work, I think I already made the background, but forgot about it, it's a bet pinkish, i'll try to use them next update.

 

Oh yeah, I remembered, the image will cover the ass part and it wouldn't look good.

does the main body lose clothes or is it just a buff?

Not sure about main body.

 

But clothes part are relics, you can can lose them if durability goes to 0, or using a card. They keep their "lost" status for the run. You can re equip them using cards as well.

 

The main character sprite changes depending on what clothes you have.

Actually just a lot of fun, I'm enjoying the character way more than the base classes.  I'd love to see more like this.  Thanks for making it!

[reesewowthree]

Another very fun character.  The lewds are nice, but honestly I'm most impressed at the interesting mechanics you've put in that are fun without being too complicated.

 

Lost a few runs mostly to being overly aggressive or more focused on trying random stuff than actually building anything approaching a coherent deck.  Had a lot of success when I finally did a run that focused on not getting corrupted and stacking burning with naked fist and body-buffing powers.  I think the synergy of cards that add/remove clothing is one of the more satisfying mechanics to work around.

 

The progression of corruption causing choices and outcomes to become more lewd is a lot of fun as well.  Definitely a character best played by not looking at the card compendium for the first few runs.  It is possible to just stall on a single hallway fight enemy and stack corruption forever, but I don't know if that is an issue since corruption doesn't really feel like a huge benefit or negative in terms of power level.

 

In terms of bugs - honestly I don't think I ran into any, at least not that were noticeable. 

 

 

Playing the character did give me some ideas that I thought I'd drop here in case you found them interesting.  The character does feel complete, so these are purely wish-list thoughts.

 

 

Uncommon and rare lewd cards that you only get access to after a certain level of corruption could really flesh out a run that aims to be as lewd as possible.  For example perhaps at 25+ corruption you start getting higher-rarity lewd cards that help a heavily corruption/arousal focused run.  The idea being to aim to have the deck essentially be a slut-only deck by the end of the run that scales off of lewd debuffs and has removed most of the regular cards with the Free Mind card.

• Random ideas for these cards:
  • A power that gives you a benefit when you climax (strength, dex, energy etc) or increases the regen/nullifies the weakness.
  • Attacks that scale off of number of times you climax in the current combat, or number of eggs in your deck.
  • A blowjob/anal themed card that gives the filled status, and has a special effect if you have a certain number of stacks when used.
  • Cards that require the enemy to be aroused, then removed the aroused effect.
  • Powers that "upgrade" lewd outcomes of other cards/enemy arousal attack cards to be more beneficial.

 

Thanks for sharing, fun character and I'm definitely going to keep an eye on it any whatever else you may do with these mods.

Thanks for the feedback, glad you enjoyed it, I am still working on some details, just got a bug today, climax get stuck sometimes when your hand is full, made some work around.

 

I am planning extra "cut-in" images and eventually events.

 

I welcome suggestions that use already existing systems, I like the lewd power idea and next tier or lewd cards, also the horny manuplilation.

 

Corruption reduces max HP by 1 per 5, so it is kinda negative to go stacking it.

 

Also another unintended effect, if you already have all lewd card, it would keep spamming you with "dont need that" as it is fleeting, now fixed.

[Imperfectable]

I'm not sure if it's already a thing since obviously it's randomized, but maybe a Relic that leans in to the Corrupted/Lewd playstyle?  Your Echidna mod had the Boss Relic that gives +1 Energy and +1 Bondage, for example, maybe something like that but with Arousal.  Or a Relic that makes it so every time you gain a certain amount of Arousal you get some sort of buff (Strength/Dexterity/Temp HP/etc.) in the normal Relic pool rather than the Boss one.

 

Regardless, it's a really great set-up in terms of the Clothing and Corruption mechanics, and I could easily see partially or completely reusing it for other characters in a similar style with just a few changes to the more specific cards (H-Virus).  A Tifa Lockhart or the like, for example.

[Katkilktel]

Really well done mod. I think it has too much tentacle porn but other then that it is just perfect. Thank you for your work. 

[Imperfectable]

Found a minor bug: if you gain one of Claire's Suit Up cards while playing a non-Claire character, using it will crash the game.  (Amusingly, it did seem to give copies of her clothing relics before crashing, so I'm guessing it crashed when it tried to apply the graphical change to the character model, probably because it was calling for an image that isn't present.)

[juzjoss]

i duplicated What Are You Buying from an event and after using one, it seems you can no longer use another. energy cost is 0, but it's colored red and can't be used. and im not sure if it has to do with having "G"? even an upgraded one that gives 30G can't be used.

 

Update: I guess i misunderstood the gold/currency aspect? it seems claire has gold to start with, and it's used up upon using a non-upgraded WAYB. using the upgraded one first seems to allow usage of the 2nd card.

Edited December 14, 2024 by juzjoss

[Imperfectable]

You need at least 10 Gold to use the card, because you don't get the 30 Gold until after you've purchased one of the variants, and the cheapest variant costs 10 Gold.

i got 1 of the suit up cards, don't remember what it was (not the full jacket one), it crashed for me playing Claire.

 

Edit:
It only crashed once. I think it was Tighten Gloves, but so far, i was not able to reproduce the crash in 3 sessions.

Edited December 14, 2024 by juzjoss

[Atmey]

I'll check up with the Suit Up cards, and you shouldnt use Claire cards or Relics for other charaters, they are not compatible, but I'll try to make it not crash at least.

 

If "What are you buying?" isn't clear that you need 10G to use, please suggest how can reword it properly, the text is pretty long already, it used to be "Refund 8 G", but you are making more money now, so refund isn't accurate, refund % or make discount instead? it would be more work for me, as each item has to be manually redone, but I guess it's doable. Also I am thinking of making the "Upgrade Gun" not always showing for balance reasons. What do you guys think?

Please post the error, so I can check what is causing it, do you have other mods installed? Could be they are not playing well with Claire.

Is it possible to show the amount of gold? unless it's already shown then my bad. i dont see it anywhere so i wasn't sure how it worked at first.

i've still yet to reproduce it. i do have other mods. DeckTracker, Hermit, Minty Spire, SuperFastMode.

 

i attached the snippet of the error which i think it was from. it kinda matches my memory. i didn't have the card Tighten Gloves on deck, instead it was found using SearchRoom.

 

 

Also, how does disarm work? It's hard to keep track where i got it from. Suspicious or Conceit? So what happened was, suddenly i see Found the Gun in my hand, and the Disarm status (not the card). Claire was disarmed, but immediately found the gun. Later, i see the Disarm card, and apparently, it was only supposed to trigger disarm when Drawn. it wass drawn but it didn't disarm. instead, it was added into the draw pile.

Another instance when i got disarmed, Found the Gun was also in my hand right away, along with the disarm card. Reading the desc, it seems its supposed to go to the draw pile for Claire to "find".

Just continued my current session, and drew Disarm again, and didn't trigger Disarm. probably because i already used Found the Gun.

[juzjoss]

another crash, this time, using AdjustJacket which is the most common card of all the suit ups i get.

 

this is the flow and it's reproduceable now. Refreshing Breeze while naked. This seems to exhaust the card like gun cards without ammo ("Don't need this anymore"), then produces Adjust Jacket. so far, it seems all temporary suit up cards crash.

 

I tried removing all the other mods... it didn't crash this time. so must be conflict with a mod.

it's the SuperFastMode mod

probably the speed at which it animates the new relic, but im not sure why it only affects temporary cards.

 

 

Final observation:

Cause of crash (for others who might also be using SuperFastMode). 

Unchecking "Make some Actions instant" works around the crash. Also, the crash only happens when the suit up cards are temporary cards created by other cards.

Agreed that it isn't a great idea to use Claire cards with other characters.  Tried it with playable Snecko just for the lolz and eventually crashed from using Lighter and Explore Darkness.

 

That being said even without the risk of crashing her cards are pretty terrible on other characters - every card that requires ammo essentially becomes a 1-3 cost status card that doesn't even exhaust. 

 

IMO pretty low priority for a character this complex, I'd much prefer she have cool events and interactions than have you as the author need to worry about what happens when other mods hook into them.  If it crops up often enough perhaps a disclaimer on the download specifically noting her cards/events are not compatible with other characters would be an idea.

I think the current wording of the card is fine - an "not enough gold" error message if you try to play it with less than 10G might make sense if that is an option.

 

I think "Upgrade Gun" should stay as a permanent option for the card.  Since you need to choose between a random relic and the gun upgrade, and the gun upgrade still costs 3 to play, it is a cost/benefit choice if you are going to go all-in on the multi-hit gun build.  I think it being RNG would be more annoying than fun.

 

I like the RNG being more on how early you get the card and how much money you can make to pay for it.  I had a really fun run where I got Maw Bank fairly early.  Since Maw Bank does not consider spending money on this card to be a shop purchase, it was active for the full run and I think had +8 gun damage by the end.  That did mean I never got to spend money at a shop for removal/cards etc, so there was a trade off.

 

For tuning, I think I'd rather the price of buying a gun upgrade be adjusted - if it is too strong as it is, perhaps it should be more expensive than a random relic.

Yeah, looks like it, the error isnt 100% clear, but it looks from rendering, which means drawing things on screen, sadly cant do anything from my side, maybe an uption to disable Claire Sprite change?

Lets see if there is a way to do that.

Disarm is a bit janky, it was worse, same for restrained, I kinda fixed retrained as it gives you temporary HP, Disarm only occures if you have 6 or less cards in draw pile, but sadly it usually happens on enemy turn, so probably draw "found the gun" at the same turn. Maybe it "Disarmed" card should disappear if you already have found the gun.

 

Suspicious is basically a possible random negative outcome, each card has it's own random income chances, if I list them all, it would be too long for the card.

I'll explain Shoot Crate for example:

25% chance to find Reload

25% chance to find a ranom Item card

25% chance to find gold

25% chance to find a Claire Potion (still not released)

 

After you get the first outcome, there is a second roll for:

18% chance to find Green Herb

7% chance to find Mouthful of Cum

7% chance to find Poison Tentacles

7% chance to find Egg Infestation

Remained chance to get nothing extra

 

Conceit will eventually run out if you didnt win fast enough or didnt refresh it, basically it has a chance to give you masochist (live version: always) and a possible negative outcome like 7% chances for each.

 

Do you think there are too many cards? I added few more in latest edits, but I am thinking of removing some, I am thinking of Reckless Punch/Kick.

And maybe I have too many 0 cost cards, if you have an idea which ones should I increase/buff.

I didn't really feel like there were too many cards with the current build.  My vote if you wanted to cut a card would be Drop Kick or Reckless Punch.  Reckless Kick I think is fun because it is a common card that works well with Burning Fist, and you can sometimes use the "Suspicious" tag to your advantage (using it last to try to get 1 stack of restrained and 8 temp HP).

 

A few 0 costs cards that might be interesting buffed with a higher cost:

Double Action

Sensitive Skin 

Magnum (perhaps in exchange losing the "fleeting" tag)

Escape Room - feels a bit OP at 0 cost since you just play out your hand, then it gives you a free energy and new cards.  At 1 cost it would be more of a choice/could be misplayed.

 

Glancing at the cards I was reminded of one card that might be a bit OP.  Backflip Dodge giving 2 dex when upgraded seems a bit too strong for a common card with no downside.  Perhaps it should be uncommon or get the Suspicious tag.

Yeah, it's a pretty niche case thing, I wouldn't expect her Suit Up card to actually work properly on other characters, but either ensuring it won't crash or just making Claire cards not appear for other characters are both reasonable solutions.  (I was playing around with them on an Echidna run, the Suspicious/Lewd cards are honestly decent on other characters.)

 

And agreed that I'd rather see some custom ? events than worry too much about edge case compatibility.

so that's where the eggs are coming from lol. but i seem to get eggs a lot of times. or.. maybe because the effects of the others are not as obvious., i think because of SuperFastMode, i actually don't get to see some of the images. they just flash instantly. actually, i should play without it for now. (yep, i was missing intended context via images)

actually, lots of cards is kinda... good in a sense? at first it was overwhelming. but after a few sessions, it became an exploration. you've once again introduced game mechanics that is beyond the original game. one time use cards all through out the game is close to the experience of resident evil's looting. even the use of herbs if ingenious. but i could never find the time to combo them. i've yet to use the red herb combo.

 

 

about the ammos. how about autoplaying it? is there any other reason not to use them immediately to pile up ammos. it's not like there's a limit. well i guess for Reload it makes sense but the ones with draw card, maybe you'd want to save it for later.

even after a few sessions, i still sometimes forget to load ammo first. i end up exhausting the gun cards. worse, the gun cards that give ammo but only if you have ammo left become useless when you don't have other sources of ammo yet.

 

 

Panic Search seems to exhaust all cards instead of "up to 5". I was trying it and is exhausted my whole hand, including Found the Gun lol.
