SPOILERS for V0.8 Part 1

I looove how diverse each love interest’s reactions were to hearing the news of the MC’s departure! 😁

Life doesn’t always turn out the way xou hope it will, and that’s the same with people, they won’t always react the way xou expect simply because they love xou. Love is complicated and messy, and I really like the way xou approached each character’s reaction. They were each so unique.

Super excited to be topped by all the boys! 🫡 I feel super bad for forcing the bottoms to top, but I’m so grateful xou added the option as I normally just skip through sex scenes where the main character tops 😋

SPOILERS for 0.48 update!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

When xou guys first started dividing the routes and making them each their own, I honestly had no idea how x’all would bring the story together, but woooow, these last four updates were sooo heckin’ cool! 🤯 Omg

I’ve enjoyed each update since the first release but xou guys really outdid xourselves with how xou brought it all together 😊 I gobbled up these updates and was well fed! 😁

There are not a lot of other VNs where each route feels like it’s own thing, it simply feels like they replace the love interest and everything plays out the same, but with NeveN, it’s so REAL 💪🏻

This is how life works. People change xou, maybe not always on a fundamental level, but when xou fall in love with someone xou sorta melded together and xou take on the parts of them xou like, and I think xou guys did a fantastic job with the main character’s evolution 🙌🏻

I really can’t praise xou enough for the way xou’ve structured NeveN as a whole. There are no sections that feel like “fillers”, there is purpose behind every lull in pacing, meaning behind every character brought in, and a relatability to these characters.

I think that’s what I love most. I adore well fleshed out characters - even the ones in the background because they have lives of their own, yeah? - so it makes this world xou guys have created feel real. People die, people can be rash, villains have meaning behind their actions, people have complex feelings.

Thank xou for sharing this story with us 💜 I’m so excited to see where it goes from here 😁

Jukes did a really good job with this drawing! You will love the full piece 😁

And thank you for the understanding, because it really is a lot of work 😅

Thank you very much for your support! 💜 Feng needs all the head rubs he can get 😋

That’s sadly something we can’t predict untill we’re close to done with the update, but we’re always working on the VN in some way or another 🙂

Xou can keep more up to date over on our Discord channel if xou’re not already part of the pack 🫡

Thank xou so much~! 😁🙌🏻 Glad to hear xou enjoyed what’ve created 😊 we’ve got plenty more to come! 😉

[insert threat] or else! 😤 😆 Hope that’s enough incentive, lol I’d like to see more, it’s cute 🙂

This was great! I really enjoyed it from start to finish 🙂 I’m always kinda hesitant to read fanfics of other VNs as it can be hard to retain the heart of the story while also making it xour own thing, but I think xou did an excellent job! 😁

It’s always great having sexy time with characters that aren’t datable in the original games, so this was right up my alley 😌 right up Yuuichi’s too~ 😏 the sex scenes were 🤌🏻 especially with Takehiko 😳 woof~

Oh! And I really enjoyed the Japanese references xou added. It helped to keep the story on narrative and also made it feel familiar. Top dog marks

Not sure how I’d do that on wondoes as screenshots remove the mouse 🤔

Really good 😊 I replayed it and enjoyed it even more the second time around! 😁 Xou did a really good job with defining each character as they each feel like full - relatable - people, the comedy is well executed and kept me smiling, and the writing is just really pleasant to read 🙂 xou have a really good flow. Top dog marks!

One thing I would suggest would be to adjust the custom pointer xou have? I kept having problems navigating to save and change the settings because the cursor’s point isn’t on the index finger but sorta closer to the palm 🧐

Amazing game 👏🏻 I only played the gay routes but I am very impressed with how diverse each path is 😁 it’s very well written and draws the reader in without drawing out the story 🙂 top dog marks ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I love all the boys for different reasons, but Ernesto stole my heart 😊

We’re really happy to hear the translation is appreciated! 😁 And the animations are sooo heckin’ adorable, right? 😊 it really brings the world to life in such an engaging way

And I’m glad to hear xou enjoyed Verissa’s scene 😌 it was nice to have her bare her fangs at someone other than Vul 😋

And don’t worry, xou’ll get xour chance to comfort the big bad wolf~ 😉

We hope not! 😁 Vulgor’s ~Exchange~ is a passion project for us, so we’re not able to work on it full time, but if it’s any consolation, the next build will be the last short volume before things get meater~ so hopefully we can get it out faster 🙂

Thank xou so much for the glowing review! 😊 A lot of work went into this build, especially with Feng finding new ways to make it more interesting and engaging, so I’m real happy to hear the hard work has paid off! 😁

And thank xou for the compliment on the tweaks I made to Caelan’s character 🙂 I wanted to remain as true to the original as possible while still playing into his more empathetic/submissive side, same way I made Vul a little more grumpy 😋 it all helps to play into the goal of the story

Thank xou for reading and taking the time to comment and give feedback ☺️ we really appreciate it

Oh, he’ll get angry, don’t xou worry~ 😉

😉

I really enjoyed these last four updates 🙂 but gosh, those cliffhangers always kill me! 😂

I’d really like to applaud the diversity of this VN, because not only is each route fleshed out enough to show off each of the handsome boys very well, but the reader is able to tell the entire story as a whole through reading all four routes together in such a unique way that each path plays off of the another in a very satisfying way 😁

I’ve found myself more and more impressed with each update, and with these last four, the style in which xou tell this story really shines. I was able to pick out details from each route that relates to another and it’s not in an overly obvious way, sknibthink xou guys did an incredible job 😊 the way the story comes back together after each route became its own tale? It’s absolutely brilliant 😌

When xou choose “Guy” as xour character, he shows up as a Futa character in the animations (sitting in the chair at the bar, sex scenes) 🫤 I tries with the “Male” and it works fine. In fact, “The Lost Coin” even doesn’t play properly with the guy character. The sex scene doesn’t show

Heh, “Yoghurt cannon” 😏 what a line~

Wow, what an emotional rollercoaster 😊 I absolutely loved this from start to finish. Some really good story writing, spicy sex scenes that were just long enough, and a really, REALLY satisfying ending 😌 I think this story will sit with me for a long while. Great job all ’round 🙂

All my saves are made when there is a kink (essence) wheel, and with me having 6 different pages of saves (naughty boy, bad boy, and good boy) I had to skip through that damn Ludwig Sloth scene 6 times 😭 and this is the third time I’ve had to do this since the game was first released! 😂 Lol, gosh, alright, I’m FINALLY at the point where I can read the new content 😁

No problem 😁 and here, let me show xou how to write up a dev log, it’s real easy

After updating the source file, xou’ll see a window like this on the page xou update Xou can also see the option to write a dev log on xour dashboard

It’s pretty straightforward and self-explanatory from there, but feel free to hit me up on BlueSky or tXitter if xou need any help 🙂

So… I see xou mentioned there are routes - and this VN also has an LGBTQIA tag - but it doesn’t state anywhere that there are romanceable characters, so I thought I’d ask

I’m almost finished catching up with the updates! 😁 I’ve got a real soft spot for southern accents, so I’m lovin’ it~ 😋 xou do a real good job of keeping the different speech patterns seperate, which I know from experience is a lot of work!

Any reason xou don’t post dev logs here on itchio to announce updates? 🧐 I only noticed the new build because I saw the post on BlueSky

Wait, every time xou uploaded files, it was an update? I’m still on 0.2 😭

Thank xou very much! 😁 We can’t wait to share it 😌

Oh trust me, Vulgor will do more than just threaten xou~ 😏

Ahw, man, I can’t believe there’s only one Richard update left after this 🥲 how did it all go by so fast?? 🫤 Probably coz we were only alternating between two routes, right? 🤔 At least there’ll be his bonus day to look forward to 😁

We appreciate the patience! 😁 Because even Vul got upset with us for taking so long 😭

Careful, he bites~ 😉

Ah, I see what happened now 😬 I redownload the file and while the zip file is named 2.1, the folder inside is named 1.0 👀 so I ended up playing my older version 2.0 😅 it’s working now 🙂

I’m on windows, btw, so I’m not sure if all the other files are also mislabeled as older versions

Hey, uhm, chapter 2 seems to only be in Spanish 🤔 it doesn’t change even when I page ahead and alternate between English and Spanish

I enjoyed build 0.8 soooo much! 😁 I loved all the emotional moments, the progression of the plot, and spending more time with Mike 😊

Thank xou for all the work xou put into this project and in continuing to tell xour story despite all the obstacles 💜

Precisely 😊 so long as there’s some type of reasoning behind it, no matter how obscure 🙂

Hmm, there’s lots of ways this could be done 🤔 if we were to take a more scientific approach, we could help explain magick through the electricity in our bodies being a conduit for such manifestations. Perhaps certain individuals are able to manipulate this energy differently, perhaps their bodies produce it abnormally.

There’s this GDV bio-well camera that is able to measure our body’s energy field, our “aura” - take phsycial pictures of it - and I always found the research of explaining such spiritual things in a scientific way to be fascinating

In one of the stories I wrote, my explanation for magick is similar to the first theory I mentioned with the exception of the human/beastman soul being the fuel from which this power is manipulated

Or even the anime Naruto. They explained how when the body’s energy and the spirit’s energy combine in the right way, it creates chi which is then formed through hand seals into something phsycial.

The possibilities for having reason behind this are endless. I mean, it doesn’t even need to be something we have in our universe, just as long as it makes sense, even in a wildly unlikely way, it just makes the story feel fuller 🙂

Great project! 😁 The characters are dynamic, the story is fun and doesn’t feel forced, and the smut scenes are very satisfying 😌

I only play every 4 updates (so that I can spend time with each of the boys 👀) and I quite literally did a fist pump when I saw this update on my feed! 😅😁 So excited to see what’s happened~

Really good! 😁 Xou put a lot of work into this project and it shows 🙂 I had a lot of fun playing, but I’d love to have had a walkthrough

Mwehehehe~ 😈 hurrah for the sneak peek I got 😋

Sadly so 😅 but that’s mostly because the entirety of Vulgor’s ~Exchange~ comprises of only one in-game day
