Loving the game so far - just finished act 1, keep up the good work!

(+2)

Thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying the game :)

Loving the updates and the game but I feel like I somehow missed out on things since some outfits are locked to me still and I have done everything I can to this point, am I doing something wrong or missing something?

(+2)

Well, if you'd like faster answers I'd recommend joining the discord.

But aside from the leads and the hints in the heart cards.

There's some side stuff to do, game won't hold your hand that much, Arc doesn't like that.

I don't really know what you're missing and trying to figure it out in here would be a mess...
That's why, recommend the discord server.

Love the new look. Keep up the good work.

Thanks, I'm glad you like it! :)

I just have a question, are the weekly update for Patrons only because mine is stuck at 11.2 Alpha?. I was just wondering.

(+2)

Nope - all updates here are public and can be downloaded by anyone :)

I do the Early Access releases every Monday and the public releases every Thursday (with the exception of next week as I'm taking my once-every-two-months break)

(+2)

Hey Arc! 

I need your help ;), can you please tell me what software are you using to make this visual novel?

I have wrote the first part of my story and my friends liked it a lot, so I was thinking to make a game too.. of course you will get the beta version first because I need a professional advice that how will my game do.

Currently I am using Ren'py and Koikatsu and have completed 25% of the v0.0.1(Beta)

Till June(As expected by me) I will release the first Beta version!

Can you please give me some tips and things that can help me to develop it perfectly like Corrupted Kingdoms.

And now you know why I was not commenting for 20days :)

Regards

(+2)

Sure, no problem - always happy to help budding game developers! Just don't forget me when you become rich and famous! ;)

For coding I use Ren'py. For the art I use Koikatsu and edit in Photoshop for renders and Premiere Pro for animations. For music and sound editing I use Audacity (make sure to balance the decibel levels for all your music and sound! I use -16 for music and -12 for sound effects)

As for tips and tricks, well, the two biggest pieces of advice I can give is, one, that CONSISTENCY IS KING! Players will forgive a lot of beginner miss-steps and mistakes if your updates are regular and consistent. Secondly, under-promise and over-deliver. This is something I'm TERRIBLE at, but it's much better to keep your scope small and expand when you have the time, opportunity and energy, than to start out biting off more than you can chew and end up struggling or even having to give up on the planned thing entirely.

Apart from that, just off the top of my head:

1.  A good trick for making characters recognisable is to give all of them different speech patterns.

2.  Make sure your characters all have AT LEAST these three things:  A strength, a weakness and a fear.

3.  Listen to your playerbase but don't be ruled by them. You want to make them happy, of course, but never at the cost of your vision for the story.

4.  The most important parts of any scene are framing and lighting

There's a pile more, but I just woke up and brain no worky so good :P Hope that helps, though, and if you have any more questions feel free to ask them here or send me a DM on Discord

Looking forward to seeing your beta demo! :)

(+1)

Thanks a lot! This info will help me a lot! I will join your discord instead of blabbering here in the comments ;)

Downloaded the update now every time I try to launch the app an error appears saying my access is denied.

I'm using the itch app on pc 

The error is popping up in game or in itch.io app?

I think it's the itch app, sent an email waiting on a reply

(+1)

Just reinstall it, that's what I did when I got that same problem

How do I impregnate the girls? I was wondering this since there was a daycare.

(+2)

Only a select number of main girls can get preggers (for now)

And well, to get them pregnant you have to get them to 4 hearts and also visit the nexus (progress with Pixie to get access)

If you've done the two previous requirements then you might also want to know you can only have one kid per mother (gender and appearance is set), that means in the daycare or in the mother (girl might already be preggers so wait a couple of days up to a week)

Got another question (take back what I said about exploration lmao), anyone care to look back at their own exploration ad tell me the route for Human Torchette if its not too much trouble?

Got the fire proof got burnt…now is says explore in town, but I hit everywhere I could imagine there already.

The only thing I’m unable to do atm is lift the sewer grate, so I went to the Bull Rider hoping to get ‘buffed’ (sorry, been up for wayyy too long), names are eluding me entirely and my PC is mid repair, just where I got stuck before I started.

So met with Sex Lone Soldier, burnt a baseball, made the drink…now I can’t do anything with either of them and I’m sick of playing contra lol

U,U,D,D,L,R,L,R B,A,B,A Select Start

To end up repeating scenes, hit Lyx then the hooker, etc. etc.

I’m lost and by the time I’m done with my major restore, last thing I’m gonna want to do is run in circles.

Appreciate any help, and apologize for the brain dead comedy skit of a post…all I see right now is “Twenty Five…” heh.

(+2)

Pretty sure you have to go to the burning apartment if you haven't already. It's in the towns explorations, West>North>West

(+2)

Yeah, as BBJ said, West>North>West.
The burning building.

If you get stuck check the other floor before coming back to the one you got stuck on, it will make sense when you get there.


Also after the burning building becomes the no-longer-burning building you can go back for two more side events.

People seem to miss those.

Thank you both…how I missed the FIRE aspect after all my torch comments tells you I was really tired lol.

I found the building before this, and I’ll figure the rest out I’m sure.

I just figured that would get me a repeated hummer (kind of like the hooker scene did)…again how I missed “burning” still kicks me in the head hahaha.

Thank you.

For the record.

The issue in the upload process seems to have been fixed.
The android download is back to being just an APK.

(-1)

where do i need to go for chloe in the explore cause i can't find it

(+3)(-1)

You need the goblin witch, you can find her in the the outskirts (map where you find the farm and Morgana's place)

In there, hit explore.


If you don't feel like trying every single combination.

First Encounter: North > West > South

She tells you to go all the way south, all the way south means:
South > South > South

You get an item, if you check it in your inventory you'll know where to go next.

Now you should have the cottage as a map icon.

thank you my man

How does one increase charisma?

I am trying to figure out the thought process in making this comment

Deleted 2 years ago
(+1)(-1)

hello, one question, can it be downloaded in apk format? 

is that when I download it in the Android section and it downloads, it appears as a zip

(+3)(-1)

Yeah, some weird thing happened in the upload process.
For some reason itch.io is putting the apk inside a zip.

So you can either find a way to unpack the zip or use the download links on Patreon/Subscribestar until this whole mess is fixed.

The public version in Pat/SS is the same as the one posted here.
Just different download options.

(-1)

Ohh thanks

(-1)

how do you solve ami's death like the part where you confront everyone with there lies???

(-1)

You talk to the other staff members, they say stuff that contradicts what other said, so you do that.










But perhaps you don't feel like figuring it out.

So...

Check Ami's room then confront Dhena with what you find there.

Talk to Emmet and confront Erica with his evidence.
After that, you can use Erica's evidence on Ard.
And finally Ard's evidence on Hana.

I may or may not have missed a step, haven't done this in a while.

(+1)(-1)

Is there some way to interact with the girl in the library 

(+3)(-1)

Not yet...

No idea when will that happen, but it will happen.

(-1)

Just curious, does the game have any cunnillingus at all? 

(+3)(-1)

Yes, there is a scene with Luna

(+1)(-1)

Game's pretty male-dom, but I'm hoping the MC redeems himself instead of being like dj khaled.

(+7)(-1)

I'm experimenting with site design stuff - don't mind me :) If anything seems weird just give it a few minutes and I'll probably have tidied it up! (This won't affect your ability to move around the site and download stuff, it's just graphical stuff I'm doing)

(+2)(-1)

I just noticed that and went looking for a new update along with it lmao.

Looks good so far, different than most.

(-1)

Getting an error in linux when unpacking v0.14.2 for PC/Linux. Its saying "Extracting Files (Failed): Failed to read data for entry: CorruptedKingdoms-0.14.2-pc/game/audio.rpa" Not sure what the error is but I figured you may want to know. Great game btw! Looking forward to updating from v0.13.1

(+1)(-1)

Try 7-Zip if your on PC, try the Alternate Download mode regardless, and make sure if your downloading on a phone your not trying to unpack a version that was stopped during a data download and the file size is around 1.19 GB,

I’ve downloaded it at least four times from the most recent links using 7-Zip to extract it on Windows 7 (I was having a renpy issue, nothing to do with this game), and the worst case scenario I have come across was when downloading on my phone over data I would sometimes get two copies, one that had never completed the download and one that had restarted with a (1) at the end of the filename so it wouldn’t be considered an archive when I looked at it on Windows in my phone until I copied it and renamed it.

I can assure you it is NOT the actual archive, it is either the program your using to extract it or a failed download.

(-1)

Ok I have to ask…ever since I read about a glitch with Ami Astral projecting into the wrong place and being given cheese (lmao on that one)

I have seen no Ami, they’re not on the gallery if I unlock it (neither are the pool girls, although I have did that quest line?…among others like “waking up”, night clubbing, night creeping lol, etc.), I’m still following gramps leads (just have the seed from the demonic nun) and haven’t went to the nexus yet.

Am I heading toward that part or is it somewhere I need to explore because I have tried almost every direction in exploration I can think of.

We need a list of those paths somewhere lol…its fun to find out what we’ll find, but its just repetitive to rewind and try to remember which direction was a screw up lol.

So a list with no spoilers maybe?

(+2)(-1)

The gallery doesn't contain all the scenes in the game.

It's not meant to, it's main purpose is for players to be able to replay scenes that are not repeatable, because older saves might break.

Sometimes Arc adds repeatable scenes anyway, because he feels like it.
But it's not the norm, probably won't be until the game is finished.


Ami appears during the main story, the fey branch of the main story.
At some point you get the chance of inviting her to the manor, you'll get a repeatable scene in her room.
She might also just not be in her room, she might be around the house, but it's just a background thing without much meaning.


The explore system doesn't really have that much mystery to it.
If you go into a wrong direction you have a big chance of accidentally wandering into a location you didn't discover before.
You can check discovered locations on "Remember".


(-1)

I got Ami, I just wasn’t there yet like I had figured. I’m kind of sad I didn’t get to see the glitch lol.

That was one LONG branch of too much repeating the same thing over and over, but the END of it wow.

Never saw that coming…NICE work there on the devs part, although it makes the Hana scene feel a little weird. Maybe that Femboy thing is coming after all hahaha.

You weren’t kidding about the “Explore” option, its been toned down to be alot more simple than it first seemed…or it was just the Lyx storyline portion was intentionally complicated.

Either way, thanks for the response.

I got lazy once the gallery unlock cheat came around…and then I started missing the story even more because I knew other people would be coming along and had no idea why or how.

Just goes to show it has more going for it than just the sexual parts. I’m playing catch up on everything right now.

(+1)(-1)

Glitch wasn't as interesting as it sounds.
Arc just likes to add his spice, even to the mundane stuff like the changelogs.
Way less boring than "fixed an issue with Ami appearing in the wrong location"

Dev, singular. It's just Arc.

Femboy is an option in the polls. But apparently futanari is more popular... Who knows if it will ever make it to the game.
A couple messages below I quoted Arc.

The explore feature is often a focus of complaints. 
I personally never realised that when going in a "wrong" direction, you may end up in some undiscovered location.
I just brute forced it until I got it right.

Arc wants to prioritise the story over lewds.
Hard to keep a good balance of both.

(1 edit) (-1)

I just figured with Hana and Ard…well, you know. I suppose that could go ANY way at this point.

And lets not forget Chloe, I just hit that part a little while ago haha.

I know it was just Arc being funny rather than boring bug reports, same as the cheese comment (I honestly almost said the poor wabbit died on easter until that hit me lol)

And I know it was Singular, I said Devs as in the ‘developers’ choice, since someone here mistook you for the dev before.

In my opinion, Arc is doing a damn good job balancing both…enough lewd content to drag you in if that was your main reason for playing any of the games on here–and once the story gets you, bam your hooked.

Its only one persons opinion and I’m too poor to get involved in the polls and decision making myself…so I’m just appreciating the really good game as it comes, however it comes.

At least it would all be optional, so you could avoid it, good decision on that.

(-1)

anyone nows how to get the phone number and the adress of the pool twins mother? I cant find the option

(+2)(-1)

Talk to Madison.
If you can't upgrade authority or talk to Madison in regards to the PTA moms, then you're either done with the content or something has gone horribly wrong.

I'd say check the discord for further assistance. 

(-1)

Why has the Android app become a zip file? What was wrong with just downloading, installing and enjoying?

(+3)(-1)

For some reason, Itch has decided that all files uploaded via Butler will now be packaged in zip folders, regardless of the original file extension. I don't know why. I suggest you send them a strongly-worded letter!

can someone help me please?? i used to download the game in android but since 0.14.x i cant download it in android it always say "app not installed" and i dont know why i removed the last version from my phone and i have like 5gb of free storage and the issue stills :(

Yeah it says the same to me

(+2)

At this point I would recommend going to the playstore and downloading Split APK Installer (SAI). 
Some users claim that using it to install the apk works, but even if it doesnt, it will at least give you a proper error message.


At the same time, I feel obligated to mention this.
By uninstalling the app you deleted your savefiles.

In the future, you may consider making a copy of your saves, if you ever uninstall the game or decide to move into PC/Mac.
You could also borrow someone else's save if you don't feel like replaying, but I won't provide it here, check the discord if needed.

WHERE ARE SAVES LOCATED ON ANDROID? Android/data/com.domain.corruptedkingdoms/files/saves  

NOTE: If you're running Android 11+ then Google has hidden your data folder. To access it you need to connect your phone to your PC with a USB cable or use an app like Solid Explorer or X-Plore to give you access to the folder again.

thank you for the answers, i keep my savefiles im my phone's storage

i can't get to authority 4 can anyone help me? i went from 0.13.5 to 0.14.2 and i checked with Veronica and Madison and they aren't letting me do anything

(+1)

Did you buy the college? (Get Madison to love level 4 and then talk to her in her Mansion) After that, just go to the college office and select "Do Administrative Work"

thank u! that helped me sm! and no i hadn't so that is what i was missing

YEAHHHH!!! THE POOL TWIN SEGGS IS FINALLY HERE!! WOOHOOOO!!!!

Hope you enjoy those swimming lessons! ;)

Oh, I certainly do. Nice animation btw, really love the shot angle. Can we expect more from the twin's family in future?

(1 edit)

So when I use Drift at the college courtyard it says "its almost feels like there's something nearby but muffled. its too weak to drift to, though" is this actually something accessible or is it for future content. wanting to ask so I don't spend more time trying to figure it out than I already have.

keep up the great work!

(+1)

It's a tease for future content... I think?

Game's far from done I'm afraid.

(+2)

It's a bit of a teaser for future content. A little extra info for people who try Drifting in the college even though you don't have to :)

(+1)

thanks so much for the explanation (now I know to wait until further updates to try it again)

also this game among those amazing gems I find here on itch.io that are just such amazing games beyond just being h-games. this especially is with the character dialogue (amazing work with the trickster btw I absolutely loved the the writing for him and his mania) and the character banter is what makes this game such an amazing treat.

are the yellow hearts on the heart cards more content locked behind a paywall?

(+5)

No paywalls.

Only paywalled content is experiencing the game 3 days earlier.
With possibly more bugs.

No, the yellow hearts mean they're locked until further story progression.
To be more specific, they're for act 3, and the game is currently on act 2.

Ah great to hear! Thats real generous. Will you be adding more main girls as the story and game progresses?

I am not the dev, you're looking for TheArcadean.
But 'till he does his rounds I can answer.

No, no more main girls.
Main girls are supposed to have loads of content on their own, which makes things difficult when you have 17 of them.
None of the main girls have gone to full main girl potential, the only one close but still far from that is Jessica.

It's a shame it wasn't 16 or 18 main girls, nice divisible number.

But no, Arc doesn't seem to be able to limit his scope, so he adds more and more side characters that are supposed to appear a handful of times only but then people get attached to them and he's forced to make them come back.

No, no more main girls.
From what I heard, Claire is going to be a pseudo-main girl.
But that's it.

You answer a lot of people so youre still valid, thanks for letting me know

(+1)

Not likely, but this is an old statement from Arc:


"Femboy" has been an option on various polls for a while now, but it's a very controversial subject and I haven't made any firm decision on it yet. If I do implement it, though, it will have an on/off toggle in preferences, like pregnancy, for those who don't want to see it.

Does anyone know if theres an H-scene with Claire? (other than the one in the club, that is)

(+3)

Nah, not yet.
We need to progress the main story before we can get to her properly.

I wonder if it will be mind control or natural.

does anyone know how to awakening aunt jessica?

(+1)

Just progress her story.
Not like you have to do it in some roundabout overcomplicated way, just follow the hints in her card or the main story.

(+1)

Hey, just played through pretty much everything that’s currently available and had a great time.

Quick question on the distribution model:

Unavailable content (levels, etc) is in two types: Some, like current advanced magic upgrades, are just crossed out, whereas some, like max love levels and the max stats are yellowed with a lock.

Does that mean that some content is/will be gated to patreon-only? Is it already? Is that only for cheats (if such, maybe not making them show up if cheats are inactive and making a note on the cheat menu would be less confusing?)?

It got me a bit unsure (with the obvious implication here being that I’m not in the patreon/ss)

(+2)

Nah, there's no patreon-locked bullshit over here.
The only benefits of the supporter version are getting it 3 days earlier...
Yes, three days.
And sometimes it might even end up being a drawback, since the game could come out with some gamebreaking bugs that are usually fixed by the time the public version comes out.

The locked heart and stats mean they're locked until the third act of the story.
We're currently near the end of the second act.

And what cheat menu?
The only official cheats are in the MC's bedroom laptop for unlocking the scene gallery and adding money. 
The use of third party tools or tampering with save editors and/or console are not behaviour encouraged by the dev. 
So if you fuck up something along the way, I'm afraid that's on you.


In summary, you're bound to wait like the rest of us. 
One dev, weekly updates.
This might take a while.

(+1)

Yeah, when I said “cheat menu” I meant from the laptop. Haven’t felt the need to mess with ye olde decompiler or anything like that. Thought to do it in order to figure out everything about the “explorable” areas (and potential hidden nexus keys) but as I played through I got the impressions maps for those will end up at the magic vendor at some point so elected to exercise patience instead =)

That’s all great news to hear, will keep an eye out for upcoming updates and make sure to throw a few bucks in next time I download, it’s definitely worth it. Lots of good work from everyone involved in this, for sure

(+3)

No "everyone", I'm afraid - just me. Hence why Cursed said this might take a while ;) I'm glad you're enjoying the game, though! I hope you continue to have fun with everything I have planned for the future!

Heck of a game, with (I have to assume) a ton of your time going into it to be doing weekly updates solo.

User name should have been TheArcade “Machine” at the rate your pushing out content, even small bits.

I’ve never worked with anything like renpy so i don’t know how complicated the engine is or if you had a lot of the art done before hand (or maybe its motion model based).

But the scripting alone (meaning the actually writing, not the technical scripting lol) must take up a lot of your time.

Ok, I’m starting to ‘technically’ confuse myself, so I’ll just leave it at that. The programmer in me is like the Assassin in Chloe haha.

Cheers for soldiering on every single week, and I’m loving the game…I really just wanted to say good work, and its appreciated.

(1 edit)

Need help again, 

1.does anybody know to to impregnate jessica? Or is it not in game yet cause it keeps telling me that something is preventing the pregnancy

2. About the ami death investigation  how can i find the other evidences except the Ami's journal? 

(+1)

It's the same rules for all main girls.
Love level 4, no kids already (either in her or the daycare)


As for the other thing. You need to confront the staff with eachother's evidence.

But if you don't feel like trying.

Erica with Emmet's evidence.
Ard with Erica's evidence.
Hana with Ard's evidence.
In that order.

Ok thanks for the reply,

Ok, I have pretty much everything done, the leads are complete, heart cards are maxed, I'm in act 2, I have max education and college authority, etc... But, I'm wondering, how do you do the naughty with the big 3? Whenever I ask Madison, it says that I can't go any further in this version of the game. Am I dumb? Or is something behaving weirdly?

Well, you seen to be pretty much done. 

Like, the only content the PTA moms have is that you can have a private meeting with the mother of the pool twins (blonde one). 

And in the next update you just get an extra scene with for the mom and scenes with the twins. 

Then how do you do the private meeting with the mom?

(+1)

Talk to Madison about it.

How? The only option remotely related to that is "ask about the big 3" and that just says that I can't do anything else in this version.  (im on version 14.1 btw)

Uhhh, weird.

So when you have authority level 3.
* You try to increase authority, it fails.
* You talk to Madison to get the PTA moms to go to your club.
* You succeed in getting them on your side.
* You try to increase authority, it works.
* You can now talk to Madison again to talk more to the PTA moms, starting with the mother of the pool twins.

I don't know why it wouldn't work.
The event was added on 0.14.1 having a continuation on 0.14.2

Weird.

What is the think backwards thing I typed in think backwards backwards and clap whistle sdrawkcab and I am confused

To this day I wonder how people get stuck on that one.

Just type the words in orange "think backwards"

I just noticed that my keyboard was not putting  in the b key correctly at the time due to a issue I feel semi stupidddddddd

(1 edit)

Do i have to send kids to the artifact so i can have another child with their moms? Is that how that works or nah? Also, i'm getting more girls than boys Should i treat this as gacha and reroll? Lololololol i'm sorry my children




Hmm so Madison can't really go to the beach huh? 

(+1)

Yes, you need to send the child to the Artifact to have another from the certain mom, the gender of the child will be the same tho, also the same appearance. 

You can bring Madison to the beach when you increased her Love Level enough.

(+2)

Someone already answered, but yeah, you didn't pay attention, only one kid per mother, the ones you send to the artifact pretty much stop existing unless you bring them back.

And the genders are set. The girls that give birth to boys will always give birth to boys and so on.
Same appearance and personality, basically it's the exact same kid and the only reason to send them to the nexus is if you have a preggo fetish.

Also Madison will only go to the beach if you have a kid with her.

(-1)

Download some of the great graphic mods for koikatsu and make the mc a bigger and better dong = profit.

(+3)(-1)

for some reason when i go to morganas to talk about the nexus after i do so it doesnt let me leave it just says look for morgana and repeats the same dialogue im very confused

When did you download the game, and from where? Because that's a bug from about a month ago on a version that was never released to the public and only exists on old pirated copies these days. If it's showing up again then that's worrying! :P

i downloaded it over a month ago where would u reccomend redownloading then also sucks cus ill probably lose my saves

(+1)

You can download the latest version in this very website, it's free, just click "No thanks, just take me to the downloads"

Try saving your current saved files folder when you download the latest version then paste it in the new version, no guarantee if it will work just fine, but I don't see why it won't.

What should i do in the burning building? Is there any certain magic i can use there?

(+1)

Well, if you explore the outskirts you may find a goblin witch that can teach you magic.
One of the spells makes you fire resistant.

do anyone know the luna thingy in the nexus, idk what to do in it 

(+1)

Well, you should go back to town, and buy some matches so you can light up a candle.

Pay attention to what the text says and follow the direction of the flames.

hmm that might be hard but thx mate :p

how to i get the casing of the organization questline 

if my memory doest fail you have to buy it from the mysterious vendor

how do i find them

(+1)

After some time, when going to Jessica's office she will say she has a message for you, and you will be able to buy the field.
With that, you unlock the "FIELD" icon in the map of the outskirts.
And the merchant in there, of course.

thank you i have been trying to look of the casing for like 2 days

(+1)

I somehow lost my saves from 13.4 when trying to move them to 14.1 feels bad

(+1)

I would ask which platform, as to give you tips on how to prevent this in the future.

For once, Android will lose the saves if you uninstall the game.

PC or Mac shouldn't... At least if anything is working as intended, which might not be the case.
