Hey dev, it's been a while since I last checked this project. Is it still going on, if you don't mind me asking?

Thank you for this!

The position of the protagonist does matter to a lot of players, I'd say.
I can't speak for others but for me, when I play, I immerse a bit of myself into the protagonist instead of just being an onlooker from the god perspective, so obv I'd like to see the events unfold in the ways I prefer :p 

Hey Dev, I played the demo and I enjoyed it quite a lot, so I'm def going to buy it. 

Edit: already did.

One thing I really want to suggest tho, is that I hope we can have some control over whether we top or bottom in a given scene, like the 4 star scene with Ethan. I was expecting him to bottom, but suddenly he became an aggressive verbal top, and that honestly threw me off a lil bit, lol.
I know it's not practical for you to make a top version and a bottom version for every scene, ofc. In that case, I hope we get the option to skip certain scenes, at least?
I mean, your game is one of the very rare ones where players get to be the Dom / Master. So I think it's important that we get to decide whether we can be 1s or 0s, right? ;p
Other than this issue, everything else  were fantastic. I really appreciate you for making this game that's catered more towards dominant players!

Thanks for the reply dev! 

Good to know the project is still continuing and I look forward to see what you have worked on. A small demo would be great! 

Is this game ever gonna come back alive cuz I saw on dev's bsky that he intended to continue workin on this project

Hi, Dev

Idk if this is a bug, but the male whores you rescue change into their female equivalent if you put them into the gloryhole, from their sprite to the animation.
The owner of the brothel also changes to female if you ask them for a boob job in the bathtub, even tho I set him as a 'him' lol.

Also, if you choose to have body hair, the penis will block the pubic part of the hair and it looks weird

Gotcha. 

It's entirely your decision to make, but I really hope you would consider it!

In the meantime do you have any other socials like Patreon for ppl to support your work?

Hey Dev, loved the quality of this demo and the art!
A quick question, do you plan to make the MC exclusively the sub / masochist in this game, since this is heavily implied in the demo, or would you consider make separate routes for players who prefer to be more dominant instead?

Thanks!

Hi, Dev

I'm just a bit confused, how exactly do you trigger sex scenes with the enemies again? I remember that we could do that in the old version, but so far I haven't been able to replicate it in the new version
Also, Dune and Hazel left the team soon after you use your first GP? I prolly missed something lol

Hey dev
I got some suggestions / idea about the game moving onward, and I hope you don't mind me putting them here:
- I noticed that you can choose a trait now when creating your character. This is a new feature that the og game doesn't have and it can be expanded into a lot of new fun stuff, I think.
For example, dominant / submissive  are among the options. These two are particularly interesting b/c in many of the nsfw games I've played, gay or het, these two are used to indicate your preference in BDSM scenes. So I think maybe that mechanism can be used in your game as well?
Say, you have a girl w/ the dominant trait, and then have a customer, or one of your boys, w/ the submissive trait, and you pair them together, they will trigger femdom animations that's kinda like the police woman scene in the og game.
For M/M scenes (only if you decide to include those), these two trait can be used to indicate player's preference to top or bottom. If M/M is on and player has dom trait, then he acts as the top in the scene. And the reverse if player has submissive trait

Thx dev! 

That's great to know.

I really appreciate your inclusivity and I hope this project will become something bigger with you working on it!

This is gonna be an unusual thing to ask and might get a lotta hate for it lol.

But dev, would you ever consider making a bi version of this game?

I know the major audience of this game only wanna see girls in sex. So I meant more like what this dev did for his game: LustMadness - itch.io where it's the same game, but the sprites and the animations are changed for different audiences.

I'm asking cuz I was an avid player of the og game and, franky, I liked both the guys and the gals. And I know a LOT of ppl would be into this game if both guys and girls are available.

My bad for asking if that is something you are not comfortable with doing.

Thanks for the info!

May I ask if the NPCs have a set position / preference tho? 

May I know if we will be able to determine the preference of the MC in the game (like dom / sub, top / bottom, etc)? Thx!

The artworks themselves look amazing! 

I'm a bit confused by the potion / poison puzzle:

The skull in the room itself will give you 3 "poems" and the 2 skeletons on your way out to the mine give you two more. But... hovering your cursor over the potion bottles will get the skull to tell you the corresponding poem nonetheless? So I'm not entirely sure what this part is doing.

返信ありがとうございます！

戦闘の エレメント の仕組みをようやく理解したところなので、今なら納得できます。

とても素晴らしいゲームで、今後のアップデートを楽しみにしています！（あと、もしかしてロマンス要素も…？ ;p）

Man, I downloaded the game back and this time I'm directly starting on all routes by keeping a whole bunch of saves. 

So far tho Yoichi / Iwan's route and Ushio's routes all started w/ MC bottoming... so I'm needa coming back to this comment to reassure myself :D

Also really thx for recommending Textractor to me. I recall that I have used it before, but it didn't work too well with other games, so I gave up on it. But this time around it's working pretty well. 

Good to know!

Also dev, I know this is a far reach but I did download the original game back to give it a try again. There seems to be some small bugs, but I don't have access to sada san's socials, so if you don't mind, could you please let him know?

- 真那 形見 was in your inventory to begin with. But if you visit your home twice before boarding the train, the dialog says you forgot the said item

- the intro for the mp3 player says it has the function of recovering Move Points by 1, when it only function a internal BGM player

- If you visit 勇魚 at night on the 8th, you will obtain 歌牌, but it doesn't show up in the inventory  

Other than these several issues this game is fantastic. Loved the designs of the characters and the fighting style 

And I'd also like to know why there are so few Essence Drops in the early game. If it is scarcity of it is simply to encourage players to be more careful with resourcing I think it went a bit overboard...? 

Of course you can still proceed without them, but it feels a bit less fun not being able to replenish it even slightly once you run out of it and don't have access to statuettes that can recover you. Instead of the original 4-5 essence drops in total, I'd say just adding 3-4 more would be enough for early game 

Thanks! I'll give it a shot then. 

Also, I hope the remake ver can fix the issue with screen resolution, cuz I had to switch my screen from like 3180 x (I forgot the other number) to 1280 x (another number I forgot) each time to have a normal sized window to play.

Hi,

I have spotted some bugs while playing and I'll post them here:

- In the Arena level, after fighting the 2nd round against the Ao and Midori, the convo on the next day says the blacksmith wanted to see you, but the blacksmith could never be talked to

- In the Burning forest level, sometimes you can encounter enemies w/ the formation where a War Oni is placed at the back. Sometimes if you kill the other enemies first (especially with KOs it seems) without damaging the War Oni, you will no longer be able to use water attack to break his Shield. This happened to me multiple times when I encountered the trio of Wisp + Snake + War Oni and killed the Wisp and the snake first without damaging the Oni

!! Game breaking bug: Also in the Burning forest level, after the scene where people in town saw the smoke of the fire, if you run into a Guard again, the game will freeze on the transition animation

Really? Then I prolly misjudged cuz I didn't make it to the later half of the game. I started on 勇魚 and 洋一's route, also 潮's. But yeah, I might download the game back to see how it is again.

And no worries, I agree nsfw content shouldn't overshadow the story of the game. So you do what you think is fitting

Hi Dev.

Just a follow up question on this. Do you plan to add NSFW scenes or features in future...? I saw that both combat menu and map menu had ???? options so I'm curious

Wow, I have only just saw this on my itch feed and I look forward to how it turns out.
I bought the original version of Orphan's Cradle on digiket quite some time ago. I tried it and honestly I found the art style kinda adorable, and it's not a huge issue for me since I'm no artist myself, and the muscular / mature man elements of the characters are right up my alley ;)
But ultimately I wasn't able to finish the game due to the incompatibility between the game and the system (having to switch the locale and the resolution of the screen every time) and that I can't read japanese. And that the MC seems to lean too much towards bottoming in many romance routes
Still, I know it's a game made with heart and dedication and I would really love to see the remake version coming into shape!

Thank you guys for the hard work!

Looks like a great game! Would love to give it a shot later when more gay elements are implemented, cuz the kinks in this one are not really my thing.

Would you mind telling how soon will that be? Thx!

Hooray! Can't wait to play

I reviewed the courses today (just for Japanese lol) again and I was thinking, it would be fun to make the mechanism for unlocking nsfw scenes kind of accumulation-based for future, instead of just a one-time thing for scoring 100%.

The first chapter is fine the way it is. You are learning the basics and stripping the sensei, so those parts are all good. I'd personally only want to see the final part changed cuz I think players should be able to determine what type of relationship you want to have with the sensei (top vs bottom, or perhaps dom vs sub even) w/o necessarily having to score 100% lol, then what future content you can unlock will be based on what choice you make here.

If you scored the passing 90%, you unlock the typical nsfw scene right after making the choice. But if you score 100%, there will be a reward (like a hidden CG or stuff like that) in addition to the typical scene.

For future builds, the number of times you score 100% on quizzes determines how many additional scenes / CGs / elements you can unlock. For example let's say CG2.3 is the first additional CG, it could only be unlocked after you score 100% on two quizzes. Then CG2.4 after scoring three 100%s, special gear (bondage with ropes, leather, etc ;) ) after 5 100%s. So on and so forth.

Ah okay, thx for the reply. I assumed too quick after the initial 2 scenes with the bandit and the ghost lol.
But he a hoe for sure :p

Does the MC only bottom?

Yeah, I understand it's difficult to implement customizations for the MC when you need to show him in the animations. Hence just something very simple would do. Thx!

Also, if the MC can be customized a little (like changing his hairstyles) that would be great

Right!? I got 102%, I should be having his ass!

Deevil, can we have MC choosing to top or bottom with the sensei in future builds please >~<? 
Like I even started doing Japanese on Duolingo again cuz I wanna pass these tests, which I did! But I prefer his bara ass over his chinpoko, tyvm

How soon will the dominator animation for enemies like Orc and Bull get an update, and do you plan on adding more enemies in the gay version, if you don't mind telling?
I'm considering going on your Patreon for the nsfw battle scenes, but I'd like there to be more dominator scenes available before I proceed :)

30 minutes later I'm proud to report that I figured it out lol. And the second variation as well. Very nicely done. Kamil went that far but still deny being gay is almost funny and he deserve some punishment for it ;)

I feel like I'm so close tho, since I was able to get the devious thought scene and then the cum on back scene. I've been trying to repeat day 3-5 the past two hours but that's still as far as I can get lol

Wait so you can actually make Kamil cum in the shower scene? I got all other stuff but I haven't triggered that yet. Does it mean I have to go for certain choices on earlier days? Like, without spoiling the actual choices, what's be the earliest choice that would affect the outcome of the shower scene? I assume it's something on day 4 or 5?

Haha I didn't completely buy it cuz I know that shouldn't be the case, but I needed to make sure lol

"Bottoms, the next build is gonna get you rock hard"...?

I was expecting Kamil's day 6 to end w/ all the tops gettin rock hard cuz Kamil's ass is about to go in the grill but guess I'm wrong huh.
