Swelladia is an RPG Maker game that focuses entirely around body inflation! The game is set in an extremely open world, filled with lots of inflative puzzles and encounters for you to discover!
Combat revolves around trying to inflate and burst your enemies before they can pop you like a cheap balloon! You will have a variety of classes available to choose from, each with their own inflative abilities!
Examples range from your typical sorcerers with arcane inflative spells, and sentinels, a tanky class who use their powerful lungs to inflate enemies with brute force!
A list of features includes:
* [Implemented] Choosable race & gender! There are four different races to choose from, and you can play as a male or female version of all of them!
* [Implemented] Fully inflatable villages! Inflate almost any NPC that you come across, and pop them to take their scraps for enchanting (You psycho...)
* [Implemented] Immersive Combat! Enemies have responsive dialogue and will comment on how inflated both you and they are! There are also POV sprites for your character that will slowly obscure your vision the bigger you get!
* [Implemented] Environmental Traps! Watch for plants that wish to fill you with sap, expansive spores, inflative darts, and sharp objects that you might pop on if you're too full and clumsy! Different environments will offer unique challenges! It pays to pay attention...
* [Implemented] A Massive, Open World! The world is an open sandbox, and there are plenty of villages, NPCs, enemies, and puzzles to find! You will be able to find powerful foes and even more powerful gear tucked away in every corner of the world! Between points of interest is a wilderness filled with danger and gatherable materials for consumables & equipment!
* [Implemented/WIP] Crafting, Enchanting, and Upgrading! Your gear is arguably the deciding factor in how long you'll last before your untimely detonation, so make sure you keep it up to date! You'll be able to socket unique enchantments into your gear using the scraps of popped enemies, so get pumping!
* [WIP] Lore! NPCs will treat you different depending on what gender you identify as, what race you belong to, or even how inflated you are! Different parts of the world will have their identities and conflicts, which you can take a part in solving (or escalating)!
* [WIP] Dynamic Puzzles! Your inflative state in the game is extremely important, as the world is filled with many puzzles & traps that require you to be inflated in specific states (such as floating with air, or weighed down with juice or water) in order to progress through areas!
* [WIP] A Crime & Bounty System! In Swelladia, stealing, popping villagers, and other acts such as trespassing will alert the guards of whatever settlement you are in! Living the life of a thief has never been so good.... but be careful! If you end up in jail one too many times you might meet an explosive execution!
* [WIP] Housing! In your travels, you'll find furniture items, as well as materials to craft furniture, for decorating your house! The game features a robust decorating system so you can express yourself in your own home! Housing will allow you to store items when your inventory is full, share a home with romantic interests & pets, and show off your accomplishments!
* [Planned] Romance! You'll be able to forge a bond with many different characters in the world, and convince them to join your party, move in with you, and get married! Each romanceable character will have their own story that progresses as you spend more time with them, or give them gifts!

From what I've seen, you are very commited to this game! I love the passion! I'll be rooting for ya, and any future updates or projects.
Bug Report: When you do the Lepin questline to recover the things that were stolen, if you get caught in the stealth mission and choose "Bad Ending" it freezes at a certain point.
I'll take a look! Thanks for letting me know!
Bug report: after selecting race, the X key returns to race select for Human and Lemusin, but does nothing on Lepin and proceeds on Elf.
Thanks for letting me know!
God damn, are the EXP rates supposed to be this low? Feels off to have to spend like 5 minutes per bandit fight burping fifty times just to get roughly 1/50th of a level. Feels like I'm missing something somewhere.
For EXP rates, you're supposed to gain experience through doing activities such as questing. The weights for different activities is relative to the main questline, which should keep your main class on level for the quests you're doing!
As more content is added, such as bounty hunting and the endless dungeons, leveling alternate classes will become much easier.
I didn't boost the EXP rates for stuff like popping enemies for the first release since there isn't much in the way of combat in side quests outside of the main storyline, so it felt unnecessary.
It's not as bad as it was at the time I posted that comment. I wasn't kidding about the game giving about a fiftieth of a level per each very long fight, but that's not a relevant complaint anymore since the last time I played (about a week ago), it felt better in both fight length and XP gain.
Next time I get around to playing, I'll have to poke around and see what's balanced and what isn't.
I didn’t touch the exp gains or anything in the last few updates haha. It probably helped that I added the option to start with a class instead of having to find them in the world.
As for combat balance the next update will be both massive stat overhauls, and complete combat reworks for the classes so balance feedback on the current build won’t be super useful!
Is there a way to rest at the inn or sleep somewhere to get stamina back, or do we just use the stamina potions for that?
I'll make stamina & mana passively recover outside of combat in the next update! Currently you'd need to use items, though.
I really like the game, but i wish it was possible to infect enemy/NPC With bluebery also with the dart in combat btw does the story eventualy is gonna continue ¿right?
Yes, the story will continue in 1.2! The next update (1.1.0) will focus mostly on expanding the side content & mechanics of the game.
I might add the ability to use blueberry items on npcs eventually, but the current plan is to keep it to romance partners & party members when more are implemented.
Hey I’m back and I gotta say you blew it out of the water! This was absolutely amazing and I haven’t even had any bugs.I have to say I am very excited for what comes next.
Also I do have a little suggestion that I thought would be neat.Maybe as you level up you will be able to reach larger sizes without popping.Now these larger sizes would have draw backs and benefits.As for benefits you would able to take more inflation.As a drawback maybe you won’t be able to enter buildings or not access areas due to your larger size.
Anyways you don’t have to add this I just think it would be cool best regards frog man.
I'm glad you liked the game! TY for taking the time to leave a comment !<3
The player's max capacity increases with level but there is no visual change, just because it'd require a lot of extra effort for every stage and slow down development significantly.
Thank you for reading my comment also thank you for giving me the inspiration to try and make my own game and implement that concept in it.
Of course! I hope it goes well! ^-^
Suggestion; a "helpless" setting (on/off) where when on characters that are "full" become unable to do anything and can be- Spared, Captured, or auto popped with sharp object.
The same could happen to the MC and they may become "toyed" with(centar/gob) looted(bandit) and other such depending on the enemy.
(i have other ideas but I'd like your input on this first.)
I do want to add a "realism" game mode eventually with mechanics such as control loss when a character is inflated, with the use of pins nad such in combat as well. I'm not sure if I'll ever get around to it though.
Ive noticed lots of invisible barriers around the mayors house and that one NPC that sells the portable items and race change potion (or whatever it is)
are you playing on an emulator?
I downloaded this and honestly, Im really enjoying this. with the update, will I need to delete the previous version first before I download or should it be ok to just download it? btw... I look forward to seeing more of this. 10/10
If you have previously completed a few of the sidequests that were broken, you'll need to start a new save to be able to complete them. Otherwise, it should be fine to use an old save!
There appears to be some kind of error that causes save files to become significantly heavier than what they probably should be and make screen transitions load times to become quite slow. The earliest that this was experienced was within the first town.
I've gotten a few reports for this issue, and I'm looking into it! That said, it'll probably take a while for me to fully pinpoint what is causing it.
The bug/glitch I've been experiencing lately that's downright annoying is the game not allowing me to venture past the win result/EXP screen. I press enter and it's still frozen there. It's happened multiple times and I don't know why. I really want to see what else this update has, but this is preventing me from doing so
how to inflate villagers?
hit Q & select the "basic pump" then hit C on them.
notice when entering the goblin tavern to meet the chief the image character it self is missing
this game is great so far ran into a bug/ problem seems arianna has two goblin mask when i tried to equip it it's not in my slot.
Hello I just wanted to say a few things after playing this game.
First of all it is amazing I love the concept and execution.The art,sound and writing is all really well done.Just great job just fix a few bugs here and there.
Also if you’d like to hear I have some suggestions for the game.
Anyways keep up the good work!
Thank you for the kind words! And yeah, it is very buggy ATM. The next update will fix a LOT of bugs though.
And sure, feel free to leave any suggestions or feedback that you'd like!
Hey quick question will the pov belly stay as more hot crushed or eventually return to the more smooth sprite?
I plan on keeping them in a pixelated style for the time being, just to better match the sprites of the enemies. I might scale them up at some point to be higher resolution, though.
will there be a map feature gonna be added since it is a bit confusing wandering around?
I do plan on adding one! I have the maps organized into a map already, it's just a matter of stylizing it to fit the game world in a manner I like. You can expect one in 1.1 or 1.2!
as a mr. burns might say
"Excellent"
If I download this will it replace my earlier demo?
No, it's an entirely new folder.
Alrighty thank you, is the old one still downloadable?
It's not, but the content from it will be remastered and added into the base game within a few updates.
Both the early quest to kill slimes and the quest to kill bandits for the hiding Lepin are bugged for me, speaking to their respective NPCs just gives the 'come back when you've finished' dialogue no matter how many I do
How to get out of the village?
Bottom left part of the village, walk into the south "wall" - exits from areas aren't marked, you'll want to walk into the edges of areas to find them.
Okay, thank you very much.
I dont want to sound negative or anything about this game but when i start the game the screen goes black. I go into Pub and do the drinks game but then it is still black outside. Can't see anything. I also tried playing it on Joiplay as well and same problem happened😭
I really wanna play but it won't work for me please help😭
I once had a problem with this game engine having a big black bar blocking most of the screen after I load into the game. I fixed that by going into my graphics control panel then switching between integrated and GPU for the application "game.exe"
Huh?!
where's the goblin camp? i cant find it
Found a funny little bug. When switching to equipment with lower capacity, the size goes down. It increases when I switch back, but it's still less.
Hello, found another bug... Inflated>Drank Blueberry Juice>Got Juiced> completely deflated.
That's intentional! They remove the status and the juice inside you.
I'm having an issue with empty flasks. No matter how many I have in my inventory and no matter how many I ask it to fill at a water source (trying at the fountain in front of town hall in the starting area), I am told I don't have enough empty flasks.
Edit: Tried it in the goblin village too, same result.
It’ll be fixed in the next patch later tonight!
Tell me how can I force feed a guard blueberries in the mission to free Rachna?
You press "Q" to bring up the items menu on what you want to equip on you, then press enter. Walk up to the guard and make sure you're facing them, then press "C". Pick up the key then do the same thing with the key. Be careful though, because for some odd reason your character just gets locked in place after freeing her.
For some odd reason, it just black-screens and keeps saying "Profile Error Occured", and I'm not quite sure why that is
I believe that is due to you having a version of Java that RPG Maker MV doesn't support.
and how would i do that
Please add a fox girl as a playable character 🙏
A kitsune?
I plan on adding kitsune characters as a special gamemode sometime in the future!
Pog
No outie option yet? :')
My dear beloved creator, it says it is out but i still only see the older version. Is it a just a problem on my end?
Sorry! I took it down for about 20 minutes since it was so glitchy and needed some emergency fixes! It's back up now :)
It is A - to the - OK lol. Thanks☺️
My lovely creator is everything alright? I do apologize for the constant nagging. When it is ready it will be ready. Take your time and have good day/night ( forgot the timezone you are lol)☺️
For everyone, the game run into some issues bc of the website so there is bug fixing going on. It should be out today or during the weekend at the latest. Lets pray for Ver!
Hello everyone, the question is how can I play the beta because on my page I can only see the alpha version?
I think it's not out yet. Some delays, probably. Looking forward to it, though.
Did it come out?
Nope, but I did get kicked from the discord server.
For being an asshole about the delay
Yeah, I did want to apologize to Ver about it. Oh well, I guess here is the closest I can get.
So we should just wait patiently☺️
It will come when it comes
So what should I do when the game launches?
Get popped by me☺️
ehehe, that a threat or a promise? :p
Feew Feew Feeew😈
mmm...now it just sounds like you're asking to get pumped~
As if such lowly peasant can pop this Goddess😝
Can't wait to pop or be popped when the update drops~.
Can we have an innie to outie feature >:)
Not a bad idea! I may implement it at some point as an optional toggle.
Please do! I'd buy the game instantly
So 26 is when it will be updated?
Yep!
I will inflate you😈
Will there be another update love the game so far can't wait for more
Soon-ish, there's NPCs and art to still be made for the next update
