Hey! Sorry if I disappointed you but I can't send you any files. The reason why the scene was uploaded on e621 is to demonstrate the scene, get feedback and get some attention to the game. At the current moment you can get the full build with Vlada's scene by supporting me or by helping me with development, for example translating the game to any language (but not the ones that game already has).

Vlada's scene will be added in the future updates but at the moment here's reasons why I can't upload it:
- Players don't want support the game if they don't get any additional content. And I'm experiencing this several years already, so I guess maybe that would lead to development closure. Plus most of the other devs do the same, I mean public/private builds;
- Not all players would like to see scene with centaur girl, some may find it disturbing;

And sorry again for this misunderstanding, I don't ask people to support the development, because I got used to that they won't be.

Thank you for responding so promptly. I understand, however, I felt very misled, even though that wasn’t your intention, as nothing in your E621 post said anything about her scene only being available to supporters currently. But you did say to “give it a try and send me your feedback, it's free” and most people would interpret that as saying that you could currently get her scene for free. Do you have a date in mind for when you will update the demo with her scene? If so, it might be a good idea to edit your E621 post and say that to prevent any confusion, but even if you don’t have a date in mind, I think it would be a good idea to say that you currently have to support the game to get her scene.

I’m unable to support the development because of the sanctions and other reasons. As for people who don’t want to see her scene, they could always say no to it when the option comes up.

Also, this is something else I was curious about: is her scene currently the only one that allows you to switch between vaginal and anal? Additionally, is she the only girl that currently has an anal scene? At least in the demo, it doesn’t seem like the switch key changes anything, nor does it seem like any of the available scenes have anal.

It’s very rare to see female centaur stuff like this, especially involving anal, and I’m personally very into all of that. As such, I am excited for the future of your game!

Hey! I was not trying to misled anyone. That's my third post (4, but one with gnome was removed :D) and I used the same description everywhere. Phrase "it's free" is about the game. Plus all other girls are available in demo build so maybe players would also like other animations. And no, sorry, I don't have release date in mind at the moment, because I'm currently planning to add merchant to the demo build.

Sorry to hear that you also have problems with sanctions. I was using patreon all these years and did not get a single coin due to the same problem...

Yes Vlada's animation is the latest one and was made by the new "quality standarts". For comparison her anim has about 3k+ animation frames and all previous had about ~500. And at the moment she's the only one who has way more interactions including switching holes. All previous anims would be reworked for this new standart in future.

Ah, yes, female centaurs are quite rarely added to the games and don't get much love, so I decided to fix that :D And I'm glad you've liked the game, thank you!

just wanted to break in here about (monetary) support. i'm personally planning on eventually supporting development with some cash, exclusive content or no, i've just been waiting for development to progress just a bit further.

there's like 4-5 projects i've been keeping an eye on, waiting for them to get to where i'd be comfortable putting out some cash. this one and one other are the closest to getting me to open my wallet.

No need to to, just support the other one. I've being developing this game for almost 7 years and never reached at least something close to mid-popular visual novels in terms of support. I got used to that. Also some players still thinking that I'm gonna scam them, so I'm also a "scammer".

one thing to remember about the VNs is how oversaturated their market is. sure, the big ones have a lot of donators, but there's 20 unsuccessful VNs everyone ignores for every big successful one. there's so many, i basically ignore them all now.

also, it's not a binary thing; it's not choosing to support either you or that other project. it's waiting for both of you to get to a point in development where the "main gameplay loop" is fully implemented.

as an example, you've got a lot of work on quests done, but only the skeleton of the open world stuff the player might be doing alongside the quests. i just want enough of that "open world" to be able to hold me over between updates, because currently, i can complete the new content of an update in an hour or two, then it's another moth or two of waiting for more content.

not that i'm complaining! that's just about where i want to be before opening my wallet.

The centaur is what attracted me to this game as well. Can't wait to find her >.>
