I have no idea where this "mega slut" idea stems from. I'm not sure that there are a lot of games where you can do that without being punished for it (let alone ones in which you actually play as a girl so you can actually become such a slut). But for the most part, people play erotic games in such a way as to access as much of their content as possible. If you play a Lesson of Passion game one way and get a certain ending, you're likely to replay the game to see what you have to do to get other endings. If becoming a "mega slut" just so happens to be the only way to experience as much of the game as possible, then players are more likely to play as a "mega slut."
I was going to write more on the subject, but I got some very upsetting news tonight. I might give more input if prompted.
Yeah for this game I want to make it not quite takes as long to beat as umcc, but have a lot more branching paths. So a person would see them over multiple playthroughs. Sorry about upsetting news.

Yeah, this is one of my big ticket turn-ons. I can't speak for other people on this one, I ended up with this one through a fairly convoluted process.Let's start with where it comes from. You probably aren't phenomenally interested in hearing about my adolesence, so I'll keep it brief. There's no one work I can point to that did this to me, rather it's a product of the way I played a lot of porn flash games back in the day. It's this situation where the way I played most of those games when I was trying to get off, in key cases, left the character stripped and splattered. And then as I played more and more games like this it became something I looked out for specifically. It helps that it isn't an easy itch to scratch in full. Most porn games get close in places. Almost none get to where I want. Like another one of my big turn-ons, part of it is simply not being able to see as much of it as I'd like, and another part is it feels like the "mountaintop", things like facials are a lower down the same "mountain".
There's a couple of key components to it to. It's not as simple as "naked and splattered with cum in public" though that's close. I guess I'd narrow it down to two key variants, shameful and shameless. Shameless is what you're asking about so we'll start there. And simply put it's a measure of a game world's freedom and interactivity. It was a fairly simple litmus test for how much I was going to enjoy something back in the day. It's almost like a series of questions. 1) Can you take your clothes off? 2) How much sex is available? 3) Are there any lingering effects or consequences? 4) Does the world react to any of this? And somewhere along the way the middle meeting point of all these questions, the centre of the Venn-diagram, became the biggest turn on of them all. It's a game only thing. Sort of. I can't find irl videos that scratch this particular itch, and for good reason. Stories don't capture the interactive nature of the fantasy, and pictures are similarly few and far between.
This is the magic point you hit in UMCC. Now the interesting part of all this is once I've established it can be done, it quickly loses its shine. Knowing it's there doesn't, it actually gives me a pleasant, long-lasting buzz about a game to know that I can go back to that point. In the long run I don't think I bothered more than a couple of times in UMCC. Because a part of me remembers that it was never about the cum-splattered nudity in the first place, it was just a way of testing where the game's limits were.
The shameful variant is of the two is a more concrete fantasy. It has components too, but these are definite and are more simple than yes/no. The components are 1. Naked 2. Cum everywhere 3. Sexual humiliation 4 Submission 5. Widespread exposure of the above. Again, it's the "mountain top". The key implication of all the cum in this one though, is usually sex with a lot of men mostly at once. This might be rape, it might not be, doesn't matter too much, though a better story is always better for my enjoyment. The widespread exposure has a bunch of possible mediums, the obvious one being a walk of shame. Pictures/video getting out also work to an extent.
Finally a word on sluttiness. Which is to say it's actually a separate issue. In the shameful case there is some amount of "sluttiness" involved in engaging in group sex, but it can also be forced, in which case I don't really consider it slutty at all. It doesn't have much bearing on the shameful variant. The shameless variant, I've said is a game thing, I guess there is one corollary, like you talked about a lot of games have corruption/purity/sluttiness/lewdness whatever stats that serve to gate content, in some cases, in this case, yes there is a sluttiness component, but only because it's mechanically forced. In cases where it isn't, it's implied through action I guess, but the characters don't have any real character in a lot of these games, just actions they can do.
I don't know how much sense this will make to you, but I hope it provides a little of the insight you're looking for.
so basically time stop on the money shot and wanted to preserve the moment. Definitely not worth if it looses it's appeal so quickly lol. but it will especially if the game it not centered around it.

The important thing is be able to finish the game in any state.For example UMCC is possible to finish the game without having sex or being the ultimate slut.
yes however walking around naked takes even a slutty maiko to another level heh. so much so that imo it supersedes anything else in the game.

For me at least, the whole megaslut component could be more of a secret ending. Maybe each time Maiko has sex she gains some sort of reputation and when it caps out, you get your scenario you listed; walking around naked, fucking every guy who comes within view of her. I like how UMCC had options with how your character played out, but as long as you were still doing the story, your version of Maiko was how the plot wanted it to be. If you had less of a plotline and instead had your cutscenes once certain points had been reached, you could have it reputation based where every couple days had a storyline cutscene that had to fit on a certain path. Maybe something where going to class every day and passing all your tests (legitimately) would give you the good girl story, while skipping class and fucking the teachers to get good grades would put you on the "megaslut" path.
idk love the story aspect of it heh. i don't mid people taking a slutty path. just walking around naked seem a bit too far in the weeds unless to tailor make the game for that. you can't just do it. people have to react to it. so you have to design the game around that mechanic. I had other games ideas where it can work better.
