Dan the Engineer can now descend into the depths of the Recreation Deck, where enabling it will give the Mainframe control over the advertising and marketing of the ship. But really, how potent can such control be? Quite a bit, actually...

Other comments already sum this up accurately. The current game is initially hot, but becomes very linear, incomplete, and also lacking in surprises.
Potentially, this could be a fun kind of "Trap Quest Lite", but it's too early to say how well it's going to develop.
The basic idea is good, but the snakes and ladders game-loop combined with basic fetch-quests sees you repeating the same moves over and over, which gets old. This is something the creator could change around to make losing a fight less repetitive and the tasks less similar to each other.
Having to click the directions and not allowing the keyboard is a quality of life issue that could probably be easily fixed.
I wouldn't say this was a robotification game though. I think the erotic scenes and gameplay path for such a game would be different. This is more of a llinear bimbofication game, the robot element isn't super-present in the erotic content, and it doesn't do stuff in "classic" robot genre stories, where you have to find creative ways around your programming, do maid tasks and other chores, or anything like that.
Also, the main character has a very human body, which is not robotic except that it has an energy stat. I was hoping that this would be a gradual transform into a robot, but it's more of a bimbofication story with some minor robotic elements. That's not a bad thing, but it may not be what some players expect from a game with "plastic" in the title - the plastic here is more in the real world plastic body mod style than something robotic or mechanical.
I'm interested to see where this goes, but unless it gets a bit more sophisticated - and perhaps adds some ways to reverse transforms, or different transform paths - it probably won't hook me in.
Making the maps more unique instead of endless identical cels could be a huge improvement if done right.
Making is possible to fight horny more effectively - somehow, by some mechanic - could also be interesting, if the mechanic was fun.
There are so many ways this could be made into something a bit deeper, so definitely worth revisting if it gets updates.
There aren't enough games involving robotification like this. The transformation portions are really quite hot in terms of writing and the whole premise is great. The game parts, however, all need to be fleshed out because there's nothing really there as it stands. Really looking forward to seeing where this goes.
v0.2.1:
Writing for the game is strong at this point with an interesting scene set up and the main bad ending completed. Graphics for the game are suitable for the story and well done. There is no sound in this game. Interactivity for this game is high given you are exploring a damaged spaceship with multiple levels and various enemies to deal with, along with puzzles to solve. Transformation in the game is generic MtF but with a twist in that your very humanity is at stake.
Overall I like what I've played so far in this release and I look forward for future developments.

This is a lot more like an actual game than most games in the HTML category on this site! Exploring the ship can get a bit tedious, but doing so efficiently before you get corrupted is part of the challenge...or you could wander back and forth to build up the horny bar, which lets you initiate actual sex scenes with the enemies that show up when you finish the part of the story that's actually there.
Said sex scenes and the transformation sequences are very well written, with nary a grammar or spelling error to be found, juicy descriptions, excellent pacing, and a valid sense of progression as your character's mind and body get more acclimated to the role you're being forced into.
That said, the writing and subject matter are now definitely salacious enough to push the game from its listed "R" rating straight up to "XXX". There's full penetration and uncovered orifices in the artwork, too. Not a bad thing by any measure, but the discrepancy in the game's rating should be fixed ASAP.
Pretty good start
Something I would like to know is if there's gonna be corruption affecting gameplay or if it will only be gameplay effecting corruption
