25 endings? That seems really interesting. I would be so excited to see what they all may contain. Of course, iirc, there's less than half of 25 romantic options, so for endings, does it also regard stuff like how well the main character does in the Cup of Cathal or exams? Would being rejected by one of the romantic options, or somehow not getting any of their events constitute its own ending (at least, if the player was rejected and didn't make enough progress with another option)?

Also, when it comes to characters like Violet, who the main character has kissed (if they did go through her questline up to this point), how much content is left before Violet becomes a guaranteed candite (assuming there would be a dialogue between Violet and the player character on confirming their relationship)? 

Very interesting elaboration!

I completely forgot about the leprechaun. but I didn't know faeiries were Irish in origin, that's actually quite interesting. I would make a pun or joke about Braveheart due to Scottish influence, but only a true Scotsman could. Thank you for answering the questions.

When it came to naming the characters, was there any particular process for them? I think some of them of course have Irish/Gaelic (and also English) names. But was it any further than that?

Also, when it comes to Irish mythology, would any further elements be taken from it and be incorporated in any form? Tir na nOg is of course the first element of Irish mythology I recognised, but aside from that, there's of course mentions to Yggdrasil, tho' that's primarily Norse mythology. 

EDIT: also for some of the house names, what was the thought process being the names for the four too?

May try asking whowolf instead of wherewolf

Do you expect Under Your Spell being on Steam to increase traffic and support a lot?

EDIT: WHY IS EVERYONE DISCUSSING A WEREWOLF CHARACTER???

Unless the MC wants to practice his drawing skills, no idea what the image means.

I'm pretty sure Shady Characters said they won't add any sex scenes I think. While in terms of shop items, I know the Books from America gives access to the Animal Forms spell

If there was a wizarding school in Silicon Valley dedicated to coding, you'd do well there

So when it comes to future events for characters like Violet and Elisabeth (After her date event), what comes next for them? Will they have no further updates to their storylines until other characters reach the same level?

Thanks for the info and clarification. My main issue has actually been trying to get her option to appear for Samhain. I'll try another run. Merci

EDIT: OH MY. YOU'RE RIGHT. I WAS RUSHING HER STORYLINE.

I THOUGHT I HAD TO HAVE HER AGREE TO GO ON A DATE TO UNLOCK HER SAMHAIN EVENT. BUT TURNS OUT, IT LOCKED IT, I THINK. THANKS FOR THE CLARIFICATION

Didn't realise I forgot to post this comment. I rechose my House, picked the same colour scheme one as Violet's. Also picked the option that the PC says that they'll be there with her in Town, and for the event where you can help her levitate a book over, I chose the option which seemed the least flirty. However, she still refused. Not sure where I went wrong. I've now just save scummed to pick most of the options when the PC asks her out. Still got rejected. Meaning I probably screwed up earlier in the questline. It probably ISN'T a glitch, so maybe I've just been misunderstanding her dialogue and if it might've implied anything.

Oh, thank you for clarifying. I have no idea where I screwed up. None of her reactions to the actions seemingly would've angered her, I specifically avoided the one where the PC can say that she doesn't need their parents (in response to going into town), that's really the only one which I would've thought would do it. IIRC, being part of a certain House excludes characters as an option, which one excludes Violet's one.

May you please clarify? I'm referring to the Samhain, where after it, there's of course the options to Hang Out/Look for one of the characters, Eric and Elisabeth. The most recent event I had with Violet before Samhain was the one where the Protagonist asks Violet if they'd like to go out in town --- which the Journal notes as us having it in the intention of a date, which Violet refused. Did I mess up some element in her storyline before which may've caused that to occur? Or am I just further not understanding?

I tried to go out with Violet after the Trial of the Mind, but the option wasn't present. I however used nearly every chance to pick "Study" when possible (aside using Rest before exams/when energy neared 0), and the option to go with Violet after the trial of mind didn't appear. Was it changed at all? Or was it just some bad RNG I got with getting Violet's events?

What causes the download for Android being 16 MG more than the windows one? - And what causes the MacOS to be quite a bit less than the others in terms of MB?

Think'st thou such force in mockery? Why dost thou complain, seethe, and cry in such wretched tears when they received a perfect, hand-drawn gift with a price tag of zero (0) dollars?

How?

Perfectly balanced. As all things should be.

I don't like being an asshole or rude to video game characters, so when it comes to Lindsey's dialogue which has her face in blue, what does it exactly lead to? Does our character begin to blame himself for her attempted suicide? Anything more?

To say Violet looks good would be implying she isn't perfect - But being serious, speaking of New Years: Will there be an event/interaction for when the in-game day reaches either the 31st of Dec or 1st of Jan

Too which, the bad ending for Elisabeth sounds really familar, both with the text and drawings and mentions, I'm not sure why I'm getting deja vu. But it 100% makes you feel uncomfortable, giving me Evangelion vibes

This game is so fire my computer overheated and crashed

Why use German rail? Were you bahnned from the Autobahn?

I usually got my Knowledge stat to around 80 at its lowest when the trial came, it made every accompyning door which needed that stat simple

Animal form can be one of the items you get by buying the 'books from america' from the store. I got it up to some high level after practising with spellpower and intelligence in my free time, which, for some of the options, gave the option to use it

"nerd girl" Is that what you call Violet, you barbarian?

When it comes to meeting the cast, you have to do the extracurricular things - studying, mingling, training, etc. You aren't guaranteed to meet a girl and get her respective event through it every time, but if you do it enough, like for studying, you'll meet Elisabeth and Violet, and go through their respective event lines. While when it comes to the trial, what were you doing? Trying to brute force? For stats like spellpower iirc, you could use animal form to skip a part, while if you want to at least meet two of the girls and pass, just max out knowledge, if you read the options, and can deduce which one accompany's the knowledge stat, you'll be able to breeze through it as first place and the exams.

I feel stupid, I misread: "New artwork for Violet's fifth event" as Violet's next event being added. I made a new save, played until I reached the end, continuously Studying trying to get it. No regrets however, super fun.

I rate this game as being over 9000!

Jesus fucking Christ man, heard of a joke?

What is the creature depicted on your profile, Shady Characters? I, at first, assumed it was a cat, but with further investigation, I see no paw, ear, and instead, an odd-shapped figure.

Wassup fellow degenerates; I have a question for y'all:
If you have a favourite girl, who? If so, why?

If I had to imagine, wouldn't it give some player choice, and ensure some randomness where so that the player is trying to find one of the girls, like with the other event (I forgot the name of it, but the one where you specifically go to find one of them, which you've made progress with, or just with Eric), as I'd imagine a lot of players have at least one of the girls in their main focus, and would like to at the very least choose one of them to meet (Like with Violet), with the second being the 2nd highest one in terms of progress made? idk, that makes most sense to me

Also -"

So after some consideration, and weighing a couple of other options I ended up adding another value in the game that would reflect a girl's willingness to visit you before the Trial and choose the visitor based on that."

iirc, you mentioned before in another devlog that each of the girls will have a house that they'd refuse to date the player if they're part of it, (iirc, you used Violet as an example), if the player is from one of the opposition houses/house they dislike, would that play into the the value and effect it?

I'm uncertain on the exact amount, I generally got around 80s when the trial started

You might be able to get a high enough intellect stat if you do the subject for it, or study every day, or every second day for when it stops. I myself always rotate the classes and don't do the double-stat ones, while slow, it ensures that my other stats are improving. Yet for when the exam and first trial ends, you can, even if you just went full-study, begin doing every other stat for the time between it and the second trial, which should be enough time to ensure you meet some more of the cast, and get it high enough

Generally, one of your stats must be high, tho' Shady has said, iirc, that you can pass if they aren't that low. Generally, I myself just go for intelligence and max that out + getting animal transformation, where it makes Exams and the first trial easy. I've just focused on intellect - which just made it a need to just pick the correct option for Intellect, which pretty much found no failure

From what I understand, the different activites in your free time, studying training, etc lead to different interactions with the girls. Studying is for Violet and Elisabeth. I'm not sure what the others are for. From what I understand, the classes are mainly for your skills, to give lore about the game, and to give some events for you to react with

Same (Not for this one however.) it's always funny when that happens.

So is Professor your first name, or your surname?

I have a question for Shady 2:
How hard is it for them to draw the characters, and all their different poses? (especially parts like hands, feet and clothings)

Violet is going to make me look violet.
