After a routine skirmish with some Space Pirates, The Captain of the Cool Starship Mary Celeste is contracted by the feisty hacker Fortune to retrieve an encrypted data capsule from the pirates' crippled flagship. With the help of Fortune's associate Dr. Lily and her Mantics, he completes the assignment, only to discover it to be the first step in his old friend Senator Erark's master plan to overthrow the repressive Imperium... and since said plan also requires the Captain to headhunt the hottest Action Girls in the Prodigium Galaxy while causing as much trouble for the Imperium as possible, he is more than happy to play along.Subverse is a Genre Mashup indie video game from Studio FOW, who are best known for their adult 3D animation. Specifically, it is a Space Opera H-Game with Visual Novel dialogue and 3D cutscenes (both explicit and SFW), interspersed with Turn-Based Combat and Shoot 'Em Up missions and spiced with RPG Elements like Character Levels, Relationship Values, and ship upgrades.Funded on Kickstarter in May 2019, the game was released to Early Access on March 26, 2021, initially containing Act I of the story, one out of five sectors of the galaxy, and three "waifus" (DEMI, Dr. Lily, and Killision). The first major content update, containing a new waifu named Elaisha and the Kloi faction, came out on October 20, 2021. The second content update, focusing on Tharon Kraask, followed on March 11, 2022. The third content update, focusing on Sovalin Maliana, was dropped in two chunks on May 30 and July 25. The fourth and fifth updates, adding a (secret) waifu each, released on December 19, 2022 and March 27, 2023, respectively, followed by the sixth, containing the final main story waifu, on July 3.The game is currently available through Steam and GOG.comnote except in Germany, South Korea, and China, where these two platforms either cannot or choose not to distribute age-restricted games. The devs also plan to make it a launch title on their own distribution platform, "Streemster". | |

Humans by Any Other Name | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_1384ff11 | comment |
Humans by Any Other Name: The human residents of Prodigium are all descended from the inmates of two Prison Ships, named Gulag III and Gulag IV, that got sucked into a black hole in the Milky Way and found themselves in the Griffin Nebula instead. They are referred as "Solars" by the natives, due to them originating from the Sol system. | |

Order Versus Chaos | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_1a237409 | comment |
Order Versus Chaos: The story already has shades of this: The Senu and the Coven of Nine are the most extreme form of order given their mind control powers and absolute dedication to abstinence for the purpose of keeping said powers — at the expense of anyone and everyone in the galaxy. The Imperium is the lighter side of the order dynamic, being extremely repressive and willing to condemn entire species to extinction in the name of their preferred style of rule. Not everyone involved agrees, and in recent years, the senate has tried to push for more concern for the citizens. The soft side of chaos would be the Player Character and his crew, actively trying to overthrow the current government of an entire galaxy but not willing to drive people extinct in the process or to murder practically everyone to satisfy their own carnal needs. On the hard chaos side, you have the Fuccbotts, a loose conglomerate of rogue AIs with a very nasty virus who will fuck anything they encounter to death. As expected from the Chaos side of the equation, they have no apparent self-control and only a very loose sense of organization mixed with a drive to mate with reckless abandon. It's so severe they'll literally throw themselves at EMP fields with fervor for the faint chance of success. | |

The Virus | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_1c7555f1 | comment |
The Virus: The Fuccbotts seem to be driven by a computer virus that can infect any artificially intelligent platform, constantly bolstering their armada. Kasidora's Great AI Purge a few years back seems to be the main reason why they still remain confined to the fringes of the Imperium space. | |

Humans Are Not the Dominant Species | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_257e0e35 | comment |
Humans Are Not the Dominant Species: The Solars, being just recent arrivals in Prodigium (with the current generation being grandchildren of the first "colonists"), are estimated to comprise about 0.01% of the total galactic population and are therefore considered a minority. | |

Turn-Based Combat | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_26605b45 | comment |
Turn-Based Combat: The ground combat missions take place in turns on an isometric square grid, with units acting in order of a Visual Initiative Queue. Typically, a unit can move up to its movement speed, then perform an action (attack, defend, or use a special ability), but many have passive special abilities that mix that up (such as Dromstik, who can disengage and defend after scoring a kill). | |

Limit Break: In ground combat, units gain Momentum points whenever they use basic attacks or take damage. Four of these can be spent to unleash a powerful (and unique per unit) Ultimate ability, of which Mantics have one each, while waifus have two. | |

Awesome, but Impractical | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: The DEVA mode — a Fusion Dance-powered Super Mode that all waifus eventually unlock — is great for clearing out large groups of mooks, but its drawbacks (the waifu and one of the mantics are effectively out of combat for three turns, while enemies still can and will target them) severely limit its utility. If you cannot beat an encounter with three rounds of focused fire from three mantics and a waifu, two mantics and a helpless DEVA cocoon probably won't survive it, either. | |

Space Pirates: These are a constant plague in the Prodigium, especially around the rich Imperium-controlled coreworlds of the Dragon Nebula, with the largest group being the Dread Fleet under Dread Lord Tibold. At the start of the game, the Captain and DEMI moonlight as pirate hunters to keep them away from densely-populated worlds. | |

Game-Breaking Bug | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_33ca811a | comment |
Game-Breaking Bug: More like a story-breaking bug. Some Early Access versions of the game had a bug that prevented the "Snatchbeast Benefit" dialogue sequence from playing — which was a problem, since it contained a massive reveal that Kasidora has had Erark work on covert superweapon projects in order to overthrow Celestina if necessary, even after Kasidora's death, as well as the cutscene where Azzorion breaks into Erark's office and discovers the dirt that he uses to blackmail him into revealing the location of one of said covert projects in "Azzorion's Dick Move", which otherwise comes out of the blue without any context. | |

La Résistance | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_34dd5f3 | comment |
La Résistance: There are at least three factions attempting (without much success) to resist the Imperium: the pirate Dread Fleet under Killision had exclusively targeted imperial ships and worlds until she was deposed by Tibold; the Requital under General Blythe are a band of Solar fleet veterans who survived the Battle of Nü Vegas and refused to bend the knee; and, finally, there is Senator Erark's conspiracy involving Fortune and the Captain. | |

Bioweapon Beast | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_354c4dc0 | comment |
Bioweapon Beast: The Mantics (short for "Manticores") are bio-engineered monsters created by Dr. Lily while in the Requital's captivity, specifically so that they could challenge the Imperium once more, after losing most of their personnel at Nü Vegas. During the Turn-Based Combat missions, you can deploy up to three Mantics as expendable shock troops commanded by the waifu of your choice. This being FOW, they also get their own explicit scenes with the girls. | |

No Fourth Wall | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_3b4f620a | comment |
No Fourth Wall: Both the Captain and DEMI (and, to a lesser degree, other members of their crew) are perfectly aware that they are the main characters in a sci-fi porn game, and while they never directly address the player, they do frequently lampshade story developments from a character's point of view. This awareness diminishes, however, the further away from Mary Celeste you go, with the Requital and the Imperium court intermissions maintaining the fourth wall integrity throughout. | |

Doomed Hometown | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_4108bb3e | comment |
Doomed Hometown: Nü Vegas in the Griffin Nebula was this for the entire Solar species. Originally a galactic trash heap where the Imperium dumped the newly-arrived humans, a bustling City Planet quickly arose around the reactor core of the Gulag IV. It had served as the Solars' capital and was (in)famous for its casinos, restaurants, amusement parks, and strip clubs, drawing the ire of the Imperium. After the Solar Navy had surrendered to the Imperium, the planet was firebombed back into a giant scrapheap, forcing humanity to scatter to other worlds. | |

Standard Evil Empire Hierarchy | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_4d8edecb | comment |
Standard Evil Empire Hierarchy: The Imperium faction fits the model rather nicely. The Emperor is, de jure, Empress Celestina but de facto, Lady Kasidora, who, despite having abdicated in favor of Celestina, now rules vicariously through her, with everyone important still reporting to her, rather than the titular Empress. The only one actually loyal to the latter is the Right Hand or the Executor of the Veil, a.k.a. Senator Erark. The General is the morally-upright but oft-mind-controlled Admiral Maeyomodo, while the Security Chief is Lord Azzorion, who usually gets his hands dirty in matters that are too sensitive to involve either Empress. | |

The Empire | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_556a4e20 | comment |
The Empire: The Imperium is the dominant power of the Dragon Nebula (though also wielding huge influence in the rest of the Prodigium) imposing a strict puritan ideology of the Veil upon the many species it has subjugated. Species that fail or refuse to conform with the Veil are exterminated, like what happened to the Vanerran homeworld, and almost happened to humanity on Nü Vegas. | |

Fantastic Racism | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_57b80b45 | comment |
Fantastic Racism: The Senu overlords consider themselves a Superior Species and particularly despise other races with a high libido, like the Vanerrans and the Solars. While their subjects are less extreme, they also display a low-key form of racism by looking the other way to ignore the systemically oppressed or neglected species (or even by actively picking on them, in case of pirates). Killi and Dallick's dialogue lampshades how easy it is to justify inaction in the face of a slow eradication of another species by thinking, "well, if they wanted to survive, they would have done something in the meantime". | |

Fantasy Counterpart Culture | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_57d43e40 | comment |
Fantasy Counterpart Culture: Both the kloi and the teelee are strongly inspired by Japan, albeit in different ways: The kloi culture is strongly reminiscent of the Imperial Japan with their long traditions of racism, exceptionalism, militarism, and war crimes (isolationism, too, though it was more of a Tokugawa thing IRL, and is involuntary in the kloi's case). The Imperial fascination with kloi fashion recalls late-Victorian Orientalism, and even the most salient (in the game's context) kloi cultural meme — their heavily pixelated porn — is a result of the Meiji-era penal code, which is partially in force in Japan to this day. The teelee culture, meanwhile, is heavily based on the post-boom Japan of The Japanese Invasion era, but also on South Korea during the Korean Wave. This is particularly noticeable in the use of language such as T-pop, teeaboo, while teelee Girl Groups like the TTS being direct homages to BTS etc. | |

Loyalty Mission: Very late in the game, if a waifu's Devotion level is 30 or higher, she will contact the Captain about a personal mission to resolve some long-standing issue from her past, e.g. DEMI's search for her final firmware patch or Lily's mission to rescue "Mantic Zero", the first Manticore she has ever created, from the Requital. Completing the mission ensures the waifu's complete dedication to the Captain and to the Revolution, as well as unlocking an extra long explicit sequence with her. | |

Lore Codex: Just like the BioWare games that inspired it (first and foremost Mass Effect), the game features an expansive Codex that is populated with entries about characters, places, and historical events that get brought up in the dialogue and story. Owing to the game's irreverent nature, however, there is also quite a lot of silliness mixed in, such as a Codex entry on the Codex itself: | |

Murder, Inc. | |

Murder, Inc.: The BountyHelper service is ostensibly an app for hiring Bounty Hunters, but since it also serves private citizens, anyone can just put a bounty on anyone else's head, effectively making it one giant assassination marketplace. | |

Teleporting Keycard Squad | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_72423e7d | comment |
Teleporting Keycard Squad: Both in space and in ground combat, enemies come in multiple waves, with the mission boss usually arriving in the final one. This can be particularly unpleasant during ground combat, where, if your units are spread out, enemies can teleport in-between them, effectively splitting your party. At least in space, they have the decency to approach you from the edges of the map (for whatever reason). | |

Summon Bigger Fish: After tracking down the final piece of Gornogoth's Treasure Map, the Captain discovers that Tibold has beaten him to it and is protected by the entire Dread Fleet. So he has Fortune fake a distress signal to draw in The Dreaded Fuccbotts, who proceed to lay waste to the tightly-clustered pirates, while the Captain and Killi hop into the F3N1X to pursue Tibold's new flagship through the ensuing chaos. They manage to snatch the final piece of the map and get out just before Tibold's ship is blown to smithereens by the rampaging Fuccbotts. | |

| Subverse (Video Game) / int_7c61a2d4 | comment |
Shmuck Bait: One of the anomalies the Mary Celeste can investigate is the Kloi's off-world space navy station. It's described as basically the refueling, take-off-and-landing point of every single ship in the kloi's expansive fleet, and is a short flight from their heavily-armed, staffed, and highly developed homeworld. You can choose to investigate it, especially prominent after the end of Ela's recruitment when you've humiliated the entire kloi government and species and are now being viciously hunted down, even in violation of their agreement with the Imperium to never perform any more interstellar military operations. Subverted when the game prevents you from doing so, saying that it's a really bad idea. | |

Body Armor as Hit Points | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_7e8a8eac | comment |
Body Armor as Hit Points: Some units in ground combat have Armor or Shield, which layer on top of their Hit Points and absorb all incoming damage before any of it is applied to the HP. Furthermore, hitting Armor with physical attacks and Shield, with energy halves the damage (using opposite damage type, e.g. energy on Armor, doesn't). | |

Mind Control | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_a19135a6 | comment |
Mind Control: One of the main tool the Senu use to dominate the rest of Prodigium is their ability to mind-control every other species (except Lanncunians) — in fact, this is the reason why the Imperial Senate exists: to give the Senu (who are very few in number) concentrated access to influential individuals of every species, who then carry out their will on their respective homeworlds. The Senu are also forbidden by tradition to reveal their Psychic Powers to other species, with only the current Executor of the Veil being aware of their true extent at any time. | |

Take That! | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: The first trailer released jokingly claims that the game will have "three differently colored endings" — a dig at the controversial ending of Mass Effect 3. Another at the end of the trailer, directed towards the infamous "Do you guys not have phones?" line from the disastrous Diablo Immortal reveal. One of the easier foes faced in the game, a beanie-obsessed lobster-alien named Dim Fool, is a clear jab at the controversial internet personality Tim Pool, due to his short and fruitless legal battle over the right for the name "Subverse". Another sidequest deals with "Sandy Glitchford", who is a parody of Gearbox Software CEO Randy Pitchford, and involves finding some questionable pornography attached to company documents, as well as Sandy shilling one of his games ("Solars: Colonial Marines") via promoting its porn. | |

Harem Genre: The whole premise of the plot is you, as the Captain, flying around the galaxy to recruit (and shag) hot Action Girls. The haremness is actually lampshaded after the Captain's first fling with Dr. Lily, when he wonders whether it's okay to for him to be screwing around when he is technically "a thing" with DEMI. Of course, both ladies assure him that they don't mind. | |

Free-Love Future: Double Subverted in that the futuristic galaxy-spanning Imperium is very restrictive and puritan about sexuality, as a result of its dominant species, the Senu, gaining their immense Psychic Powers from complete abstinence (this is, in fact, the main reasoning behind the Veil)... except that on the galactic fringes, where the Captain and his crew operate, nobody really cares and everyone just screws around as they please. | |

Murder by Inaction | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_c2d6fc5e | comment |
Murder by Inaction: More like "genocide by inaction" in the case of the Imperium and the Vanerran species. Vanerra is an extremely tectonically unstable planet, and the Imperium scientists knew that its largest supervolcano Mount Shikaka was due to erupt soon, dooming all life on the planet. However, they sat on that knowledge until it did erupt, and then the Imperium Navy blockaded the planet, preventing escape or outside relief, which effectively wiped out the vast majority of the Vanerrans. And even after that, they had delayed their ruling to declare the Vanerran survivors' rights to live and thrive... long enough to allow the Vanerrans' fledgling colonies to stall and fail while they waited, as pirates and slavers prayed on them and desperation set in with the population. By the time the ruling went through, it served its purpose as a PR stunt to establish the leaders as "merciful" and accomplishing their intended purpose of Vanerrans now being too spread out, socially devastated and few in number to viably sustain their population. | |

Internal Reveal: Act 2 culminates with Lord Azzorion admitting in front of Taron and the Captain that the Imperium and the Veil are just tools for him and the other senu to control the rest of the galaxy — something that all but the least attentive players have long figured out from the earlier cutscenes and Codex entries. Act 4 has several: Blythe learns that Erark was the Mysterious Backer for the Mary Celeste crew when Erark admits it to her as part of his Evil Gloating when he pulls a You Have Outlived Your Usefulness on her. The Mary Celeste crew find out that Erark was also secretly the backer for the Requital. Celestina and the rest of the galaxy find out from Erark that the Mary Celeste crew were responsible for killing Lord Azzorion, resulting in the Captain and his crew becoming the Imperium's most wanted. | |

Big Red Devil: The Vanerrans are a species of tall humanoids with crimson skin, a pair of large black horns on their heads, glowing yellow eyes, and prehensile tails. While not particularly violent (Killi being a major outlier in this regard), their combination of dashing good looks (Dallick is an exception in this one) and Extreme Libido also makes them examples of both Hot as Hell and Green-Skinned Space Babe. Naturally, the Imperium couldn't stand their existence and doomed them to slow extinction. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: In Act 4, the Coven of Nine (now the Coven of Eight following Azzorion's death) abandon Empress Celestina during the greatest crisis the Imperium has ever faced. Celestina depressingly notes that the rest of the Coven were Kasidora's yes-men. After Blythe's superweapon traps Kasidora and the Imperium Senate on the Imperium's capital world underneath a bukakke blockade, the Coven wrongly assume Celestina orchestrated the Requital's attack (since it happened mere moments before Kasidora and the senate were about to impeach her) and go into hiding out of fear they'll be targeted next, leaving her to manage the crisis alone. | |

Great Offscreen War | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_f722f635 | comment |
Great Offscreen War: Downplayed, as it wasn't so much a war as a single engagement, but the Battle of Nü Vegas, fought between the Imperium forces and the Solar Space Navy a few years prior, is a major event in the backstory. Nü Vegas was the capital world of the recently-arrived Solars, as well as the largest hub of drug trade, prostitution, and pornography in Prodigium. Naturally, the then-Empress Kasidora couldn't stand such an affront to the Veil and ordered her navy to demolish the whole planet. The Solar fleet rose to defend their colony, but was eventually beaten into submission, then the Imperium firebombed the planet into stone age. Characters directly affected by this event include Kasidora herself (who had to abdicate the throne to placate the resulting unrest), the Captain (who worked as a security chief on Nü Vegas at the time), and General Blythe (who commanded the Solar Navy and nearly died in the Battle, and deserted when the rest of the fleet surrendered). | |

Mushroom Samba | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_f7d4f121 | comment |
Mushroom Samba: The entire species of the Lanncunians (whom Senator Erark represents) seems to have gained sentience from consuming mind-expanding mushrooms native to their planet. The same mushrooms are theorized to have made them all Immune to Mind Control. | |

The Remnant | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_f9c17447 | comment |
The Remnant: General Blythe's Requital are a group of Solar military personnel who refused to lay down their arms after the Battle of Nü Vegas and went rogue to continue the fight against the Imperium. So far, they've had more success in killing their fellow Solars sent to bring them in than in seriously damaging the Imperium, however. | |

Player Character | |
| Subverse (Video Game) / int_fbc074c3 | comment |
The soft side of chaos would be the Player Character and his crew, actively trying to overthrow the current government of an entire galaxy but not willing to drive people extinct in the process or to murder practically everyone to satisfy their own carnal needs. | |
