Well, there's a lot of Irish mythology in there already. Fairies, leprechauns, clurichauns, St. Colman's ducks, the list goes on. But we didn't limit ourselves by Irish mythology, of course, because the world is bigger than Ireland, and even the wizards of the Isles don't really differentiate by nationality and just consider all the British isles as a single cultural entity.

As for the House names, they are vaguely based on different locations in Ireland and Scotland with the attributes we felt relatable to the Houses.

edit: Oh, forgot about the names. We mostly just though of the names that we felt right for the characters. Some of the names I had in mind already like Gwen, Elizabeth, Lily and Violet. Also, Lardbee, the groundskeeper and Professors Dulgren and Mooney. But for more "exotic" names, I usually task Shady Two to come up with some names, and then we decide after she returns to me with three or four variants.

Не знаю =) Ты на английском начал - я подхватил. Мало ли почему ты на английском пишешь =) Кстати, рекомендую присоединиться к дискорду, если интересно обсуждать игру. Там много людей, который и советом помогут и в механиках уже гораздо лучше разбираются. Да и просто поболтать.

Ссылки как на дискорд, так и на бусти есть на главное странице игры (да и в самой игре тоже). Будем рады видеть

Спасибо за этот отзыв. Всегда очень приятно слышать, что людям нравится игра =) Судя по твоим статам - не удивительно, что постоянно приходилось бороться с их деградацией. Нормально тренировать одновременно все пять статов на данном этапе и должно быть очень сложно. По идее, это больше цель на поздние этапы учебного года, когда игрок уже оброс предметами. 
Привет из России в Россию =)

Nope, none at all. If I was, I wouldn't have werewolves in the game ;)

Great job! 😁

Also, you gave a great idea that I should probably put these things into the journal.

I surely hope so. Steam is, after all, the biggest game platform out there. We will need to pass the screening though. We don't really have anything worth banning, but Steam might have issue with the whole "girls in kind of school uniforms" part. And once you get rejected - that's it.

Edit: Because HeroANDFool really wants to date a werewolf girl :)

Stat deterioration is considered in the stat growth balance. Also, the stat deterioration doesn't start after just one day unless you only train that stat occasional. The more intently you train the stat the longer it will go without deterioration (to a point). I will consider different options for potential NG+ mode. But for now, keep in mind that the game is still being balanced. Not all items and jobs are in the game yet. And you barely have half the total amount of time to train.

Hey there. No, I don't thing the game will have anything like that. At least I am not considering it at the moment. There might be a NG+, but you will have to train all your skills again. Without raising stats, there is basically no game, no progression and no structure. The whole gameplay is balancing the things that you want to achieve with the time you have.

I am planning to have a total of six spells in the game. The final two are still a work in progress :)

I never said one of them isn't a werewolf either ;)

You can get all the girls except one per playthrough. There's only one girl that's unavailable for each House

Whatever gave you that idea?

Yes, I know what causes the bug and it will be fixed in the next version :)

You can continue playing, it is just a small one-time stat loss. Or you can use a workaround. Go to Magic theory (теория магии) or Brewing (Варение) as your very class first, and you should not lose the Knowledge points

Oh, that's a bug. Sorry about that. It will be fixed. Thanks for reporting 

There was a warning after the event when the date was set, that the date itself is not in the game yet

Lol! Didn't think you'd actually do this, alotoflewis1234!

(1 edit)

No =D It's just that her last name is Lewis. Elizabeth Lewis =D

With a nickname like you yours, it is no wonder you missed Elizabeth's date. Change it to alotoflewis1234 and things would probably go better ;)
On a more serious note. I am glad to here you enjoyed the game =)

Well, not really drawing skills, but it is an event that allows you to train your imagination while studying. And also look at a few saucy pictures while you do that ;)

What? No, that's fake news :D We are planning on adding sex scenes into the game eventually:)

Hi! Thanks for reporting a bug! =) I can see you are playing the 0.5.0 version of the game. This bug has already been fixed in the 0.5.1 version.

Hey there! Nice to hear that you are enjoying the game! =)

As for you questions:

1. I try to keep girls' event cognizant of the main plot if not directly tied to it. In your example, Gwen will not come to support you before the second Trial if she is currently mad at you (at least she shouldn't. That's be a bug). And in some rare cases there will be different variant of events depending on your relationship status with a girl.

2. At the current moment, you only get one chance to invite a girl on a date and the storyline is blocked forever. Same happens if you skip the date. In the future I am planning to add a couple of "second chance" events which would allow you to revive a ruined storyline with one of the girls.

3. There are no house exclusive girls, but for each house one girl in unavailable. For Ruachan, it is Violet as you have already noticed.

Oh, Spanish is, actually, in progress right now.

Hi, the houses offer slight differences in each playthrough, and one of the girls is always unavailable for each house (depends on the house). But your playthrough can be very different with different stats. 

Also, what language would be best for you? I am in the process of making translations for different languages. Maybe yours will be next =)

Hi! Thank you for your praise. Yes, I have figured out the issue with the fonts already. As you can probably seen the second screenshot :)

As for helping with translation. Do you have access to discord?

Paid version provides early access to latest updates :)

First of all, thank you. It is always really motivation to get good reviews.
Second of all, you should always report if you have even an inkling that something might be wrong. Fixed Lily's dress unlock, btw. Thanks for reporting. She does have her Halloween event unlocks though. So she does have unlockable options ;)

No NTR or cheating in the game. Unless you consider possibility of dating several girls at the same time cheating 🤔

No, we don't plan on having any futa options in the game.

Hey! Really glad you are enjoying the game! :)

1 - only Violet has the date right now. Unless you consider Ciara's impromptu date at a cafe.

2 - I've been actually thinking about this for some time now, but I don't have a good idea how to do this diagetically. I would either have to make everyone acknowledge that you forfeited the Trial, or have you to write something to make it so you still competed but lost. I might still have a solution to this conundrum someday soon

We'll have to see about that. But likely, the girls will have their events added asymmetrically.

You don't need to just not anger her, but also specifically make her trust you. You probably didn't do enough. Also, spending Samhain with her help, but you rushed her storyline before that.

Ruachan blocks Violet

Yeah, I am constantly forgetting that I actually need to write journal entries for every new event, and that they won't just magically appear by themselves =)

Her whole storyline was reviewed and edited. And now, you reminded me that I have forgotten to add a new journal entry for Violet after the date... :|

Oh, yes. If Violet refuses your suggestion to go out, her storyline terminates and you only remain friends. Thus, no Samhain event.

The date is in the Town. You have to go there on the specified date. It won't trigger otherwise.

No idea. Different systems probably need different utilities and drivers that are packaged with the game. Like Ren'py launcher and the like

Yeah, they are a point of contention for sure. But not a dealbreaker by themselves, so I am hopeful.

Yeah, I know, thankfully, I have ways of publishing it on steam outside of Germany. 

Releasing a game and having an NSFW patch elsewhere might get you delisted too, I heard. It is not certain, but I wouldn't want to risk that...
