I tried to minimize the screen clutter. There's a little arrow on the left bottom of the screen press it. It'll open a side menu panel

Oh, I totally forgot to mention! You can do a manual save once combat begins, even as you're about to lose. Then, when you load the save, it should be at the beginning of the combat encounter!

Not an ideal solution but at least saves you the scrolling

I am going to implement a "replay battle" button soon. Or an autosave just before combat. One of the two.

Thanks for the pointer though!

Edit: have you placed all 3 members in your team and edited decks? Juggling cards around does wonders. Later cards are often much stronger than your base deck.

First of all: thank you so so much for this detailed review! It delivers me so much feedback that I didn't have before. In the future I will definitely be making adjustments to many of the things you pointed out!

Now onto your feedback and game experience.

You have pointed out a few things that combined might've resulted in a worse experience than intended - for which the fault is mine. Liora's route is probably the least focused on weight gain during this arc. There are three different routes in total in Chapter 1. Rosalind's, Liora's and Emilia's. Of the three Emilia's is the most significantly focused on weight gain. So if you have any will to try again, I recommend aiming to please Emilia! :D

As to opportunities for weight gain and how the choices work. I have built a system in which nearly all of your choices matter. Some of them raise a character's relationship status, others raise their weight points. If you gain enough weight points, then their sprite changes to a heavier one. And in case of the mansion scene, every dish you serve to Rosalind, raises her weight by 1. There were a few choices earlier too which combined will result in her weight gain. She even has a special scene before you go to the Ljosvaettir ruins if her weight did increase after the house trap!

I absolutely agree it could use some identification that a choice you made had an impact on the relationship or the weight. Initially I didn't intend on having THIS many choices in the game.

I will be definitely making adjustments to combat too. Thanks for the suggestions. It's totally doable and I think the correct thing to implement! I was also thinking on how to make the traditional draw mechanic more interactive so you can influence the cards you actually want on your hand. I thought for example each turn could begin with a look at your top 4-6 cards then you pick two that you actually want then reshuffle.

I think I could definitely play around with the intensity of weight gain in chapter 1 as well. And yes, chapter 2 will have significantly more weight gain content focus! Including Liora - if she joined your party permanently.

So thank you so much again for all of this feedback. It's an incredibly valuable thing to me!

And I hope my response gives you some reassurance about the future content of the game :D

Spoiler ahead:

Try telling Perlene you're looking forward to your next meeting.

As to the maid, there are two opportunities. One is for example to tell her that your walk with Rosalind was a little bit romantic. Then you have to be on Emilia's route. And when she asks you if you're in some kind of palace romance, ask her back if she wants to be included!

So, as of now in prologue you can have all of them gain at least a bit. Then in chapter 1 the main characters for gains are Rosalind, Emilia and Liora. You can also have the maid and Perlene put on a bit of pudge through not as much as the main characters.

Thank you!! 

Yes, I am very motivated. All of the positive comments and reviews are a massive motivation boost. I'm already fully into writing the continuation. Retaining the quality means it'll take a bit to complete but I think it's going to be worth it!

I don't want to throw out any spoilers in the comments like that but I can say many characters are going to receive their own weight gain in a future free update, when chapter 2 will be ready! :D

It gets only better in the full version!

There are two downloads available. One is apk, the other is exe for windows. You don't need to do any conversions! :D

Of course! She's one of the main characters.

You just need to initially make some choices that are pleasing her, then you'll lock onto her route once the whole story starts rolling and you can make her gain with the correct choices afterwards!

Great! I'll wait to hear from you what do you think about the continuation of the story!

Yep! I intend on making a free update to the game.

And thank you for the kind words! I'm very happy to hear you liked the game this much :D

Ah, sorry for a slow response!

I'm happy to hear you enjoyed the demo :D

If you still want to buy the full version, reach out to me on Deviantart, please.

Thank you! I'm happy to hear you enjoyed the game this much!

As to the content update... I genuinely can't say when will new chapter come. Definitely more than half a year. Writing this kind of story with characters, plot, events and unique scenes takes a lot of time. The good news is that I have already started working on it!

Thank you!

I'm big on writing actual stories alongside the fetish content and having both aspects reinforcing each other. 

The future story will definitely stay that way too! 

Noted. Will do!

it's fixed now! Thanks for the notice!

What I'd recommend is to put Liora in your team and play "Shields Up" on her so she tanks the direct hits. You should try to kill her minions as well, as they're powering up her ult. If you can keep it, then don't use the special stage ability before her ult - it's aoe and can easily clear the minions she summons.

Also, in patch 0.63.4 Nyrissa has been nerfed. So if you're on any earlier patch, please, download the most up-to-date version of the game and the fight will be easier!

I hope this helps!

Could you tell me where in the game did this error pop up? Like, a partial quote of a dialogue just before this error would help me to locate the issue fast. Thanks for the report anyway!

I'm glad you enjoyed!! :D

Of course. Emilia is amazing ahaha!

Thank you so much for this review. Much appreciated!

I'm very glad you loved the game so much. And, of course, there's even more to come!!

Noted! I'll add a "try again" button to the combat encounters :D

Thanks for the review!

Ai and edited by me. But the game is not just images. It genuinely costed me a massive amount of time and work to create. But I see your point. It's ultimately up to each individual person to decide whether it's worth 20$ for them or not.

Oh! I suppose it became much easier with 3 allies? Hahahah

He's getting a slight nerf in the next patch.

But right now I'd advice to have the "shields up" card and play it on Liora so she can tank. Other than that - put as many damaging combos in your deck as possible. Lots of fire cards too. Execution for Liora. Nuke the boss ASAP, before he can stack his bleed effects on your team.

Thank you so much for the notice! I have no idea how did I miss this while testing the game before release.

It's patched already though. Uploading the fixed version right now!

There's also an entire world written by me. 150k words of a story. Systems, minigames. Lore. Combat system. There's a reason this game took me 2 years of development. But I understand your pov.

You can always try out the demo for free to see if there's any worth to the game!

I think it should be possible in theory. Haven't tried it myself. You'd have to place the full version in a separate location and find, then copy the save. I'll try to do that myself too, but let me know if it was sucessful for you!

Thank you for the notice!
It was my stress mistake. Uploaded the wrong files. But you can redownload the correct version now (twice the size)!
