Oedipal Pantiemonium

Oedipal Pantiemonium is a fighting game developed by MGW Productions and published by The Deviant Fighting Company, released on March 8, 2023, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch and Microsoft Windows via Steam and Epic Games Store.

Plot
On Mother's Day 2023, widowed, divorced, or never-married mothers from all over the world and their offspring, who are either children or teenagers, have been invited to an all-inclusive resort on a mostly-uninhabited island in the South Pacific for a one-week vacation. There, the mothers have been given special necklaces that allow them to transform into sexually-appealing alternate forms, with said necklaces becoming more powerful the greater the women's love for their children is, so that they can fight against each other in a tournament hosted by the resort owner, known as "Oedipal Pantiemonium."

Gameplay
The Vacation Mode, AKA the Arcade Mode of Oedipal Pantiemonium, ladder will consist of five CPU battles, which take place from Sunday, May 14th, 2023 (Mother's Day, the beginning of the vacation) to Thursday, May 18th, 2023, a Rival Battle, in which your chosen character fights their rival, that takes place on Friday, May 19th, 2023, on a grand arena in the middle of a beach on the resort, and one final fight, which takes place on Saturday, May 20th, 2023, the end of the vacation, against the final boss, who is, of course, the resort owner, Millie Fitzgerald herself! So, that's 7 Vacation Mode battles total.

Players can have DeviantArt-friendly sex with their chosen character halfway through her vacation, on Wednesday (also known as, appropriately enough, "Hump Day"), May 17th, 2023, in the form of a cutscene, but if the sexual contact between you, from the POV of the resort worker caring for the chosen mother and her child(ren), tries to go any further than DeviantArt will allow, the Yeah sorry no screen will instantly pop up for a few seconds before we cut to the aftermath of the lovemaking. Each of the playable mothers will have her own unique sex scene, and eRa's "Mother" can be heard during each sex scene.

The "Instant Kills," or "Motherly Punishments" as they're called here, are very similar to the Zetsumei Ougi in Samurai Shodown V Special in which they require not only that your opponent's health be critically low in your winning round, but also that you trigger an Instant Kill-like state, which is activated by your chosen character hugging their child(ren) for two and a half seconds, during which their Motherly Love necklace starts to give off a powerful pink glow, and can be done by pressing X+Y+A+B (Xbox Series X/S) or Square+Triangle+X+Circle (PS5), depending on the console version, requires that all three bars of your super meter be full, and lasts until your super meter runs out, then disappears with no chance of you being able to use it again (which can also happen if you whiff the pre-Motherly Punishment strike or the other character blocks it). All Motherly Punishments are executed by, while in pre-Motherly Punishment state, performing the quarter-circle-back command and pressing the lower face buttons at the same time and allow you to finish off your opponent at the end of a fight, but they're nowhere near as gory as the Percute Ultimum in the Bellum Bestiae series, so use your finishing move with anticipation!
