Hey HappyDaedalus, I'm pleased to inform you that I've bought this game on Steam and fallen completely in love with it. It's rare to find a primarily porn game that one can make a legit claim that they play for the plot, but I truly do believe I've found one I can add to that relatively short mental list so thanks for that!
I came for the X scenes, but I stayed for the story/lore and I get this weird feeling its a lot deeper than currently implemented/you have a lot planned. Also, I've got to come to an agreement with Sarah btw. Be it the mage route or the relatively short so far crime route, Alaric is irresistibly hot for some reason. His spicy scenes, and frankly just his general demeanor is really attractive to me ahaha. Maybe I'm playing with fire that isn't Sarah's, and falling too deep into the "I can fix him!" delusion but without getting too spoilery I get the feeling he's a product of his circumstances at the end of the day. I hope to see more from his route in the future, the Bonny and Clyde vibes I'm getting are really interesting.
Oh! One more thing before I go. Are there more intersecting NPC encounters planned, like a few particular instances from the Mage/Warrior intersect? I really do hope so tbh. I thought that was really interesting to see, how Sarah's former friends and family see her again after many years and see how much she's changed drastically.
Wow, thanks you for the kind words and I'm so happy to read that you've enjoyed the game so far :).
Creating an erotic game that manages to both be true to the erotic-elements, but also provides a good story, has definitely been one of my main goals with this game, so it's always great to read that people are enjoying that combination. My main design philosophy for the game is that a good story can help people connect with the characters better, and as such, also make the erotic-side of the game more impactful as well.
And Alaric is definitely one of my favorite characters to write for as well, and though he's a pretty bad guy, he's not entirely beyond redemption :). I hope to have some more updates for his crime-storyline as well this year.
And yeah, intersecting encounters from different storylines will end up hopefully being a pretty big part of the game as it continues to develop. One of the things that I hope to keep exploring is Sarah meeting characters on different routes, and seeing how differently she and they react to each other, when her situation is so different in each storyline.
So thank you again for the kind words, and I hope you'll continue to enjoy the game as it develops more :).
Yep, I won't deny that Alaric is most certainly not very high up on the moral totem pole. Still, to be perfectly honest when it comes to H-games so few people ARE perfectly pure of heart that I guess I lower my standards of judgement I guess? Anyways, more good news~ I'm funding you on Patreon now, so there is that. I think this one is gonna be worth it tbh! I just finished the current rendition of the Mage storyline not that long ago and got those dreaded words....
~For now, this is where the story ends~
T_T I honestly just can't get enough of this game's world, I wanna see it all. Know its history in its entirety. Truly, I am the Voracious Eater of Knowledge.
Edit: One more thing on the morals side; I noticed that Sarah can end up burning alive A LOT of people in the Mage route lol. For as much as she criticizes a certain group of people for not caring about humanity, she can potentially become quite the sociopath herself if the player makes such choices haha. It's kinda upsetting ngl, plus if you kill a character they'll never show up again for potential future content so its kinda not worth it imo. Both from a meta perspective, and from other PoVs.
My beloved orc husband Atilla route is so short T T... I thought I would have an adventure with him in warrior's route. *Sigh*At least we had promise, I would met him and made him my husband till that day.
Hah, glad you liked the story so far, and I can spoiler that Atilla will definitely be showing up again in the near future, his story is far from over :).
I am really interested in buying the game but quick question, is there any plans to have incest in the game? (Thomas) I know Patreon forbids that but itch doesn't say anything. Also, when is the game expected to be done? Late 2024? Early 2024?
Hey, thanks for mentioning this one. It's a crash I'm familiar with and hopefully it will be fixed by the next update.
However, having said that, it doesn't actually do much. The story currently ends at that point, so you're not missing out on any content beyond that point.
I like a lot of the paths but some at the moment I like more for the erotic stuff then story but I love the magic route so far amazing story and I like the warrior route though not as much as the mage the other paths I might end up liking more when more content comes out but idk
The gallery isn't functional yet, but I hope to get that working in the next few updates. As for a cheat function, that doesn't exist, but I do believe someone has made a mod for the game that allows for things like scene-selection and other changes.
The Sailor Path seems to be broken right now, at least on the Steam version. If you choose to stay with Belmont after arriving in Rahayal, you end up getting an Exception error. Specifically, the game can't find 'SailorPath4'.
Thanks, I'll make sure to try and fix that on the next update. It's technically broken as you point out, but not really functionally broken, because the story ends at that point, so players will have seen everything that the Sailor-route has at that point (until future updates, of course).
But thanks for pointing it out, I'll make sure to get that fixed :).
Quick question. Will you ever make that beautiful art in the header the actual main menu screen instead of just the loading screen? Cause it would look so good as the main menu screen. Better then the empty pink anyway.
Definitely, I don't think it will necessarily be that particular art piece, but I do hope to improve on the main-screen because it's a bit flat. Working something out with a GUI artist and hopefully I can include it soon.
Before I waste my money, does this game have any female antagonist or villains that get in the way of the protagonist quests? I seriously tired of all the games with no villains
I just bought early access on steam and although I admit that I did it for horny reasons, in the end the story ended up getting me. So far I have finished the route after winning the war against the tribesmen and I have reached as far as I could after Sarah became a magician and I especially enjoyed how Sarah has evolved as a character. But right now I have a selfish and silly question that you don't need to answer if you find it inconvenient but... are there any plans to leave naydeen as a romantic option or something remotely similar? Although for obvious reasons I see it as impossible, but I'm only dreaming.
Thanks for the kind words and I'm very glad to read that you've enjoyed the story so far :)!
And yes, Naydeen will be somewhat of a romantic option in future updates, altough her relationship with Sarah will be more complicated than just a simple happy relationship. Hope that gives you an idea on what to expect without giving too many spoilers on that route :).
Music for my ears! I don't care if this takes more than 2024 to complete, take the time you need and keep up the amazing work. I will patiently wait as long as it takes to enjoy your fantastic work.
Hi! Got the game on steam. Could you summarize how many routes are there and where they are? In a post or something... Now it is either not mentioned or scattered in replies and release logs. Thanks!
Sure! I've been working on creating a guide for players, but it's not done yet. A rough overview of the available routes right now:
1) Warrior - Leave with Kate, join the mercenaries 2) Mage - Leave with Kate, don't join, scream when the bandit approaches you 3) Princess - Just stay with Thomas. 4) Crime - Leave with Kate, don't join mercenaries, do nothing when the bandit approaches you 5) Rahayal - Leave with Kate, don't join mercenaries, run away from bandit, leave Lethram 6) Tribes - Lose the war against the Tribes by making bad decisions. 7) Sailor - Leave with Kate, hook up with Belmont, join mercenaries, keep hooking up with Belmont.
Those are some of the major storylines right now. There are a lot of sub-choices within each of those paths, but as I said, I hope to release a more detailed scene guide at a later point :).
I know this is a late-ass reply, but she REALLY had this instance coming.... I mean, come on! Sarah. You did the one fucking thing they all told you not to do! Xan told you, Razaphel told you, your teacher in daemonology told you. I just couldn't feel bad for her here. She fucked up in a grand total of 30 seconds, this is too dumb to live not become a sex slave territory.
Not at the moment, but I'm working on one that I hope to release in a little bit, just so players have an easy way of seeing how to access all the content :).
And yeah, I'm definitely planning to have some of the old art pieces updated/improved on to achieve a more unified artstyle.
My first priority is to fill in all the black-screen scenes, to make sure that every scene has at least 1 piece of art. After that, I want to improve on some of the weaker pieces and hopefully even create more scenes with multiple pieces of art, as well as more animated art scenes.
But it's always a balancing act as well. I don't have infinite resources, and artists can only work so fast. So a lot of attention also has to go towards new updates as well.
So, a lot of these art-issues are growing pains, and I definitely hope/plan to smooth them over step-by-step with every update.
Bought the game on steam and saw the Dev being more active here so I wanted to ask. Is it normal to get: an Exception has occured while loading image error when you click gallery in the menu?
I really enjoyed the new update! I saved the Jaeid content for last because I had a feeling his would be the most romantic. I'm glad I did! He's such a sweetheart! Obviously he still has his issues though, given his loyalty to Hassar and the Tribes culture. I'm curious to see how his loyalty vs his love for Sarah will play out down the line. All of the other routes, especially the old soldier one, were a little depressing. But it definitely makes sense, since everything happened due to the poor decisions that we made regarding the invasion. So far, my favorite has been the warrior storyline. Seeing how strong and independent Sarah can become really makes me happy. What storyline are you thinking of expanding in the next update?
Glad to read that you're enjoying the new content :).
And yeah, the Jaeid-route is a rare happy/positive route in what is otherwise a pretty bleak set of storylines. Finding that balance/resolution between how he feels about Sarah and his loyalties to the Tribe are going to be a big part of their story.
As for the next update, I aim to be releasing that in about a month, but I can't yet say what it will be about. The only thing I can say is that it will be a bit more of a happy/upbeat update, because writing this much dark/depressing content can be exhausting haha.
I know this is spoilery so I'm gonna try to keep it simple, but after seeing certain parts of the mage route and also the Khan's (for now) short route, I'm not nearly as certain he's a "bad guy". Maybe I'm falling into the same trap as his haremettes, but I have theories as to what his true goals are/who/what he works for.
Most every artwork in the game is followed by a line of code that hides the text box and pauses until the player taps to continue. So usually, when the game transitions to a new artwork, it should show a version without text box first.
Additionally, I also know Renpy also offers a standard function like this on PC, but I'm not sure if it does so for Android.
thanks for the reply, I found the shortcut for pc, I belive its the h key, but other renpy vn's i tried on android have a hide button in the ui for this, maybe you could add this in the next update? love the game so far I have bought on steam and itch.
Thanks for letting me know, I didn't know this was an issue for Android versions.
I'll look into creating a button in the UI so that Android users can hide/show the text box, and hopefully add it next update, or the one after that (I don't think it should be too difficult).
Just to get back to you on this, the latest version now has a hide UI button added to the lower part of the screen, so it should now also work for people using Android :).
Intro > Stay with Thomas (don't leave with Kate) > Survive the Tribes attack > Do not marry Marion or Varga > Select all the encounters with Lady Carolyn
Currently aiming to be releasing it around the 4th of February :). It's a bigger one than usual, so it's taken 2 months rather than the usual monthly update, but I'm excited forit.
Hello! I am Megamy, and I am currently the one reviewing your Novel from the Steam curator group "Visual Novel, JRPG, Anime" to which you sent the request for the game to be reviewed. I want to ask about the current progress of the game. I am currently on standby to read the novel further, so I can do a review that englobes the whole game and not just the Alpha access. At the current advance of my story, I like it, there are many choices to be done which I appreciate, many good and bad choices, and a few different outcomes but I do not know yet how much they might affect the story flow and its final endings.
I saw that the game on Steam is still stated as early access but has been released on the 19th January, so I am asking if you can provide me with some intel about the release date so as to write a complete review.
Thank you for the kind comment and I'm happy to see you're enjoying the content that is available so far :).
To answer your questions as best as I can:
1) The game is out in Early Access on Steam, that version is similar to the version here on Itch. 2) The current progress is about 1/3rd of the total planned story, and by the end of this year I hope to bring the story up to 2/3rd complete. Then next year, I will finish all the major storylines. 3) So, the aim for the final release is in 2024.
Hope that helps and I look forward to reading your review :).
With about 1-2 years of time, I will probably go and try to find as many routes as I can and try to make a current state review out of this, and later on, once the novel is released a more complete review since I do doubt I'll be able to keep details for this long in my goldfish brain :D .
When the time come please do not hesitate to contact us again for a full review in case I should miss the occasion.
PS:
I hope the little brother will find his own success in between the endings that shows him as weak.
I was thinking, in the future you may want to add a photo in the front page. You forgot alaric! Alaric is a gold mine. People love hot assholes that you want to change or that are different for you.
Hah, yeah Alaric is a lot of fun to write for as well. Perhaps I should update the front-page, I haven't changed it much since the first release, I'll look into it.
Hello I adored this game, and replayed the demo so many times before decidding to just buy it XD. I got alot of the CGs already and loving the story so far, though... I still haven't found this one yet?
Great to hear you're enjoying the game :). To get to that particular scene/image you have to (Spoiler):
Leave with Kate > Don't join mercenaries > Run away from the Thief > Leave Lethram, then you meet a new group of characters, one of whom is called Sakar, just side with him and that scene (and others) will play out eventually :).
Hello! I really love this game, but I was wondering how to get some of these images. How do you get the orc picture or the one under the razaphel? Speaking of which I assume he's on the mage route, but I'm not sure how to get that route. Sorry for the trouble, I usually like looking at walkthroughs for this kind of thing. I really like the sailor route and the route with the thief guy, as well as Varga! I can't wait to see more content for this game. I purchased the game on itch.io, how do I get the updates? Do I have to purchase the game again?
Thank you for the kind words, I'm very happy to read that you enjoy the story so far :).
If you've bought the game, you should have access to the Itch version, which is the most recent version that contains all the available content. New updates will get released whenever they are finished, but you don't have to pay for them again. One purchase is enough forever.
As for your questions about the images:
1) Orc pictures are usually about the character Atilla, an orc. To get to him, you have to Leave with Kate > Join the Mercenaries > Be trained by Atilla. This has most of the orc images.
2) Razaphel is on the mage route, correct. In order to get on the mage route, you have to Leave with Kate > Do not join the mercenaries > When the thief guy shows up, scream. After that, you are on the mage route.
Yes thank you so much for the help and for the great content! I was able to download the updated version thank you. When you add more content I'll probably ask again for help if I need it thank you! :)) Although the question I was asking before was the night image where Sarah seems to be riding someone on the ground. Is that on the mage route?
Leave with Kate > Don't join mercenaries > Run away from the Thief > Leave Lethram, then you got a story-route where you can meet new characters, one of whom has that scene.
just brought the game, i enjoys it so far b ut you really need to update the character standing picture , it very out of context , for example Kate in the very beginning dresses up in Merc suit while talking about being a maid , it self is a huge spoilers , same to character facial as well , her father just dead but Rose face still smile
I saw a video about this game from a website called BiliBili.This game is fantastic, and I hope that in the future the main characters have voice acting!! Razaphel's scenes are so sexy.I love him.
Thank you so much for the kind words! Really great to read about how the game is spreading and people are recommending it because they enjoy it. As the creator, there really is nothing that makes me more excited to keep working every day :).
As for Razaphel, he's a personal favorite as well! Since you like him so much, below is a new artwork involving him that's going to be included in the game in the next update. Hope you enjoy it.
I haven't seen any other way to contact y'all, but I wanted to let you know that your game has been published up to v0.80 on some s*x game websites for free. I got to looking because some of the WIPs I follow are having problems with people pirating their games. I don't know if this is the case with you guys, but I wanted to bring it to your attention.
Thank you for letting me know. Unfortunately, piracy is something that really can't be stopped. I don't mind it too much, fortunately there are also a lot of supportive fans that help make the development possible, so I just try to think about the positive :).

If I buy it here can I get a steam key? I'd actually prefer buying it there but it's not possible to buy it in steam
Hey HappyDaedalus, I'm pleased to inform you that I've bought this game on Steam and fallen completely in love with it.

This game is everything, I love all the options I get as a female lead. It's so well made and hot
Thanks! I always love reading positive reviews :), glad you've enjoyed it so far.

I like a lot of the paths but some at the moment I like more for the erotic stuff then story but I love the magic route so far amazing story and I like the warrior route though not as much as the mage the other paths I might end up liking more when more content comes out but idk
I was really enjoying the game and was wondering which characters are romanceable (kinda like a list)?
is Xan a romantic option?
Quick question, does this game got gallery function or cheat function available?
The gallery isn't functional yet, but I hope to get that working in the next few updates. As for a cheat function, that doesn't exist, but I do believe someone has made a mod for the game that allows for things like scene-selection and other changes.
The Sailor Path seems to be broken right now, at least on the Steam version. If you choose to stay with Belmont after arriving in Rahayal, you end up getting an Exception error. Specifically, the game can't find 'SailorPath4'.
Thanks, I'll make sure to try and fix that on the next update. It's technically broken as you point out, but not really functionally broken, because the story ends at that point, so players will have seen everything that the Sailor-route has at that point (until future updates, of course).
But thanks for pointing it out, I'll make sure to get that fixed :).
Sarah's first encounter with Atilla is updated from this:
To this:
Yeah were there any art updates to any of the sailor or thief scenes?
I went ahead and saw there is in fact new art for sailor route. I'll go ahead and look at the thief route next.
Quick question. Will you ever make that beautiful art in the header the actual main menu screen instead of just the loading screen? Cause it would look so good as the main menu screen. Better then the empty pink anyway.
Definitely, I don't think it will necessarily be that particular art piece, but I do hope to improve on the main-screen because it's a bit flat. Working something out with a GUI artist and hopefully I can include it soon.
Little question. What is new at vo.2.9 ?
https://itch.io/blog/499207/release-of-v029
this release post doesn't show up in the devlog for some reason
Before I waste my money, does this game have any female antagonist or villains that get in the way of the protagonist quests? I seriously tired of all the games with no villains
There are antagonists in this game that are specific to each route, but I don't think any of them are female at this time.
I just bought early access on steam and although I admit that I did it for horny reasons, in the end the story ended up getting me. So far I have finished the route after winning the war against the tribesmen and I have reached as far as I could after Sarah became a magician and I especially enjoyed how Sarah has evolved as a character. But right now I have a selfish and silly question that you don't need to answer if you find it inconvenient but... are there any plans to leave naydeen as a romantic option or something remotely similar? Although for obvious reasons I see it as impossible, but I'm only dreaming.
Thanks for the kind words and I'm very glad to read that you've enjoyed the story so far :)!
And yes, Naydeen will be somewhat of a romantic option in future updates, altough her relationship with Sarah will be more complicated than just a simple happy relationship. Hope that gives you an idea on what to expect without giving too many spoilers on that route :).
Jasmine and Hecate as a romantic choice or something like that?
And Sophia ？
Hi! Got the game on steam. Could you summarize how many routes are there and where they are? In a post or something... Now it is either not mentioned or scattered in replies and release logs. Thanks!
By where they are I also meant how complete they are...
Sure! I've been working on creating a guide for players, but it's not done yet. A rough overview of the available routes right now:
1) Warrior - Leave with Kate, join the mercenaries
2) Mage - Leave with Kate, don't join, scream when the bandit approaches you
3) Princess - Just stay with Thomas.
4) Crime - Leave with Kate, don't join mercenaries, do nothing when the bandit approaches you
5) Rahayal - Leave with Kate, don't join mercenaries, run away from bandit, leave Lethram
6) Tribes - Lose the war against the Tribes by making bad decisions.
7) Sailor - Leave with Kate, hook up with Belmont, join mercenaries, keep hooking up with Belmont.
Those are some of the major storylines right now. There are a lot of sub-choices within each of those paths, but as I said, I hope to release a more detailed scene guide at a later point :).
Hope this helps.
I know this is a late-ass reply, but she REALLY had this instance coming.... I mean, come on! Sarah. You did the one fucking thing they all told you not to do! Xan told you, Razaphel told you, your teacher in daemonology told you. I just couldn't feel bad for her here. She fucked up in a grand total of 30 seconds, this is too dumb to
livenot become a sex slave territory.Is there any way to back up android saves? Updated my game and lost all of them. A bit annoying.
Hi there big fan of the game. I was just wondering is there a walkthrough for the game ?
Not at the moment, but I'm working on one that I hope to release in a little bit, just so players have an easy way of seeing how to access all the content :).
Thank you for working so hard. We all really appreciate the effort.
P.S Can you drop some hints about your plans regarding the mercenary route plz ?
can you add more save slot
Good question!
And yeah, I'm definitely planning to have some of the old art pieces updated/improved on to achieve a more unified artstyle.
My first priority is to fill in all the black-screen scenes, to make sure that every scene has at least 1 piece of art. After that, I want to improve on some of the weaker pieces and hopefully even create more scenes with multiple pieces of art, as well as more animated art scenes.
But it's always a balancing act as well. I don't have infinite resources, and artists can only work so fast. So a lot of attention also has to go towards new updates as well.

Yeah, unfortunately the gallery is currently not functional. I'm working on getting that fixed, hopefully some good news there soon.
Thanks for the clarification. I was worried that my computer was the problem.
Hi there, good work. What i have played i really liked, but i wanted to ask, is there any pregnacy content ingame?
There are some routes where Sarah encounters pregnancy, such as with some of the latest Tribe-routes.
However, in terms of content that heavily focusses on and really goes in-depth on pregnancy, there isn't a storyline like that in the game yet.
It is being worked on, for sure, but I'm afraid it's not here yet.
I really enjoyed the new update! I saved the Jaeid content for last because I had a feeling his would be the most romantic. I'm glad I did! He's such a sweetheart! Obviously he still has his issues though, given his loyalty to Hassar and the Tribes culture. I'm curious to see how his loyalty vs his love for Sarah will play out down the line. All of the other routes, especially the old soldier one, were a little depressing. But it definitely makes sense, since everything happened due to the poor decisions that we made regarding the invasion. So far, my favorite has been the warrior storyline. Seeing how strong and independent Sarah can become really makes me happy. What storyline are you thinking of expanding in the next update?
Glad to read that you're enjoying the new content :).
And yeah, the Jaeid-route is a rare happy/positive route in what is otherwise a pretty bleak set of storylines. Finding that balance/resolution between how he feels about Sarah and his loyalties to the Tribe are going to be a big part of their story.
As for the next update, I aim to be releasing that in about a month, but I can't yet say what it will be about. The only thing I can say is that it will be a bit more of a happy/upbeat update, because writing this much dark/depressing content can be exhausting haha.
I know this is spoilery so I'm gonna try to keep it simple, but after seeing certain parts of the mage route and also the Khan's (for now) short route, I'm not nearly as certain he's a "bad guy". Maybe I'm falling into the same trap as his haremettes, but I have theories as to what his true goals are/who/what he works for.
Jasmine is even more lovable.
hi, is there a way to hide the text box on android?
Most every artwork in the game is followed by a line of code that hides the text box and pauses until the player taps to continue. So usually, when the game transitions to a new artwork, it should show a version without text box first.
Additionally, I also know Renpy also offers a standard function like this on PC, but I'm not sure if it does so for Android.
thanks for the reply, I found the shortcut for pc, I belive its the h key, but other renpy vn's i tried on android have a hide button in the ui for this, maybe you could add this in the next update? love the game so far I have bought on steam and itch.
Thanks for letting me know, I didn't know this was an issue for Android versions.
I'll look into creating a button in the UI so that Android users can hide/show the text box, and hopefully add it next update, or the one after that (I don't think it should be too difficult).
Just to get back to you on this, the latest version now has a hide UI button added to the lower part of the screen, so it should now also work for people using Android :).
How do i get this scene?
To get to that scene you have to:
Intro > Stay with Thomas (don't leave with Kate) > Survive the Tribes attack > Do not marry Marion or Varga > Select all the encounters with Lady Carolyn
When is the next update?
Currently aiming to be releasing it around the 4th of February :). It's a bigger one than usual, so it's taken 2 months rather than the usual monthly update, but I'm excited forit.
Sounds of angry sailor , slave, traveler( oh how you called it) routes.
Hey is there a place to report bugs?
Not an official place, but you could drop them here and I'll see what might be the issue/fix it.
These are from mage path.

Dam this post looks ugly....
Hello!The game is interesting,but I'm curious that how can I get the achievements on steam since I bought the game on itch?TT
Achievements haven't been put into Steam yet, so unfortunately there aren't any to collect yet, but I plan to add them in the future :).
IT'S GOOD!!
Hello!
I am Megamy, and I am currently the one reviewing your Novel from the Steam curator group "Visual Novel, JRPG, Anime" to which you sent the request for the game to be reviewed.
I want to ask about the current progress of the game. I am currently on standby to read the novel further, so I can do a review that englobes the whole game and not just the Alpha access.
At the current advance of my story, I like it, there are many choices to be done which I appreciate, many good and bad choices, and a few different outcomes but I do not know yet how much they might affect the story flow and its final endings.
I saw that the game on Steam is still stated as early access but has been released on the 19th January, so I am asking if you can provide me with some intel about the release date so as to write a complete review.
Thank you very much for your reply!
Thank you for the kind comment and I'm happy to see you're enjoying the content that is available so far :).
To answer your questions as best as I can:
1) The game is out in Early Access on Steam, that version is similar to the version here on Itch.
2) The current progress is about 1/3rd of the total planned story, and by the end of this year I hope to bring the story up to 2/3rd complete. Then next year, I will finish all the major storylines.
3) So, the aim for the final release is in 2024.
Hope that helps and I look forward to reading your review :).
Thanks! I appreciate your answer.
With about 1-2 years of time, I will probably go and try to find as many routes as I can and try to make a current state review out of this, and later on, once the novel is released a more complete review since I do doubt I'll be able to keep details for this long in my goldfish brain :D .
When the time come please do not hesitate to contact us again for a full review in case I should miss the occasion.
PS:
I hope the little brother will find his own success in between the endings that shows him as weak.
Definitely! He's one of the potential main love interests on that route, and I hope he'll be returning soon in a few updates :)
I was thinking, in the future you may want to add a photo in the front page. You forgot alaric! Alaric is a gold mine. People love hot assholes that you want to change or that are different for you.
Hah, yeah Alaric is a lot of fun to write for as well. Perhaps I should update the front-page, I haven't changed it much since the first release, I'll look into it.
Alaric make people feels very uncomfortable.
too obscene and greasy
Hello I adored this game, and replayed the demo so many times before decidding to just buy it XD. I got alot of the CGs already and loving the story so far, though... I still haven't found this one yet?
Great to hear you're enjoying the game :). To get to that particular scene/image you have to (Spoiler):
Leave with Kate > Don't join mercenaries > Run away from the Thief > Leave Lethram, then you meet a new group of characters, one of whom is called Sakar, just side with him and that scene (and others) will play out eventually :).
Hope that helps.
Hello! I really love this game, but I was wondering how to get some of these images. How do you get the orc picture or the one under the razaphel? Speaking of which I assume he's on the mage route, but I'm not sure how to get that route. Sorry for the trouble, I usually like looking at walkthroughs for this kind of thing. I really like the sailor route and the route with the thief guy, as well as Varga! I can't wait to see more content for this game. I purchased the game on itch.io, how do I get the updates? Do I have to purchase the game again?
Thank you for the kind words, I'm very happy to read that you enjoy the story so far :).
If you've bought the game, you should have access to the Itch version, which is the most recent version that contains all the available content. New updates will get released whenever they are finished, but you don't have to pay for them again. One purchase is enough forever.
As for your questions about the images:
1) Orc pictures are usually about the character Atilla, an orc. To get to him, you have to Leave with Kate > Join the Mercenaries > Be trained by Atilla. This has most of the orc images.
2) Razaphel is on the mage route, correct. In order to get on the mage route, you have to Leave with Kate > Do not join the mercenaries > When the thief guy shows up, scream. After that, you are on the mage route.
I hope this helps :).
Yes thank you so much for the help and for the great content! I was able to download the updated version thank you. When you add more content I'll probably ask again for help if I need it thank you! :)) Although the question I was asking before was the night image where Sarah seems to be riding someone on the ground. Is that on the mage route?
Ooh, that image!
To get to that one:
Leave with Kate > Don't join mercenaries > Run away from the Thief > Leave Lethram, then you got a story-route where you can meet new characters, one of whom has that scene.
Ok thank you!
just brought the game, i enjoys it so far b ut you really need to update the character standing picture , it very out of context , for example Kate in the very beginning dresses up in Merc suit while talking about being a maid , it self is a huge spoilers , same to character facial as well , her father just dead but Rose face still smile
I saw a video about this game from a website called BiliBili.This game is fantastic, and I hope that in the future the main characters have voice acting!! Razaphel's scenes are so sexy.I love him.
Thank you so much for the kind words! Really great to read about how the game is spreading and people are recommending it because they enjoy it. As the creator, there really is nothing that makes me more excited to keep working every day :).
As for Razaphel, he's a personal favorite as well! Since you like him so much, below is a new artwork involving him that's going to be included in the game in the next update. Hope you enjoy it.
I haven't seen any other way to contact y'all, but I wanted to let you know that your game has been published up to v0.80 on some s*x game websites for free. I got to looking because some of the WIPs I follow are having problems with people pirating their games. I don't know if this is the case with you guys, but I wanted to bring it to your attention.
Thank you for letting me know. Unfortunately, piracy is something that really can't be stopped. I don't mind it too much, fortunately there are also a lot of supportive fans that help make the development possible, so I just try to think about the positive :).
When you invest to buy the game on Itch do updates come for free or would you need to buy it again?
One purchase entitles you to all future updates for free, you do not have to pay ever again.
