Hmm... well the v0.15.9 version runs an updated SDK that should be more stable on Android OS. It's released to the public on Thursday, so maybe try it again then :)
Question, There's a girl who appears three times in the school storyline; she's a student, and the last time I saw her, she said something like "thanks for dealing with my mom." or something along those lines after taking over the school, so I assume her mother is one of the three mothers in the school storyline. Is she important, and will she get more screen time in future updates?
So, I reached this one thing, and this makes me wonder about what the story entails.
There was someone below saying something about enjoying that there is wholesomeness, as opposed to netorare (adultery/cheating). Yeah, I don't like seeing it, but by the way the game sometimes portrays itself, there's a dark, maybe unsettling, side that is important to the healthy development of the story.
I mention that person because I don't want the developer not to be a people-pleaser. Sure, wholesome bits are fine, but don't let compliments or requests ruin a good VN. Make the VN into the thing YOU want it to be.
Have no fear, I have a very clear idea of what I want the game to be and all the major plot points (including the endings) are already written out :)
I enjoy writing the wholesome and silly scenes a lot, but I also feel that contrasting it with darker, upsetting or unsettling scenes is important. Hence the murder mystery that caused a riot, and the more recent "Lil' Luna" event that seems to have scarred a few people :P
There will be a lot more laughs, a lot more silliness, and a lot more cute and wholesome scenes. But there's also going to be some scenes that are going to be hard to watch (if I can write them well enough) and a few tears shed by certain characters.
Hey, I have a question, is this green bar in the strength, power etc bet is unlockable in this version of the game or only in the next update? because I have already filled all the bars and only this green field is left.
You should! Studies have shown that people who play this game become five times more attractive and develop the ability to juggle.
(Studies were conducted by Lyx and are not guaranteed. Side effects may include loss of time, the feels, and inexplicable cravings for mangoes. Terms and conditions apply)
I think you're talking about exploring the town? You have to be in the town map (the one with your Manor) and click on "EXPLORE". Then you need to find the burning building. You can do this by paying attention to the text hints that appear when you explore and find yourself in an "empty" scene (ie. one that doesn't play an event) :)
question. i only unlocked the east wing after a bizzilan years. can i still invite people to live with me after i finished theyre quest like jessica's friends. and who all can i invite?
Yeah, Jessica's friends you need to see their second event.
Laura will appear in the living room as part of Jessica's story. Renee will leave a message for you in Jessica's office. Lucille likes to shop at night.
If you've done those, you can now ask Jessica during the morning to invite them in.
Then there are three other characters you can invite.
Two fey characters you get from the fey storline, it's plenty obvious what you're doing. But if you didn't have the east wing fixed when you were faced with that choice, you have to go back to them and confirm they can move in.
The other one appears in Roxy's storyline. Again, obvious choice. And I think she moves in anyway, but you can only talk to her once you fix the east wing.
Love your game.Its incredible,the story is deep and thats what makes it so great.
3 questions if i may.
My Gwen was on yandere (didn't even realize) now she has DAMAGED perk.
Can it be fixed somehow?
2nd.Can Chloe be fixed?
Kids aren't that important but if i can have them with many other girls
would like to be able to have them with girls who where there from the start.
That why i ask those questions.
3rd.After upgrading the manor(wing thing) are my only choices the girls who were selling their houses or will i get other options later on?I'm currently met 2 council member in main story if that helps
The yandere mode is on by default because it shows you the consequences of your actions in the end of act 1. You can turn it off in preferences or sex her once or twice a week.
If she got damaged then you're screwed, it can't be reverted. Most likely you won't be able to revert it either.
As for Chloe, also no but if I understand correctly the issue of finding out if you can (or even want) to fix Chloe is going to be addressed somewhere during the third act.
You can only have kids with main girls (they have a heart card entry) that have reach love level 4 (not all of them though)
The girls that can get pregnant are: Kana, Pixie, Lily, Jessica, Madison, Veronica, Annie, Asteria, Luna and Emma.
The others haven't reached the proper love level, have said why they can't get pregnant or are a special case (like Gwen and Chloe)
Well, aside from Jessica's friends you can get 3 more characters to move in. Two you get from the main story, fey lead. At some point you get the choice to rescue them. Likewise, in Roxy's story you also meet a character that needs rescuing.
Just keep playing, The choice is quite obvious once you see it.
tnx for reply.Too bad about Gwen but don't fell like playing it all over again.Is there room capacity that i need to watch out for or its cool to invite Jess's friends and have room for the rest?
thank you again.Its the official dc server from link above?although if it will take you a lot of work and take away your time then i don't wish that for you.
This is a great game, and I highly enjoy it! I haven't finished the game yet, but when I do, I'll give a more in-depth review of it. But so far, I'm impressed!
Just have one question: Is there any way to invite Emma to the manor after having finished her questline? The manor upgrade for the East Wing wasn't unlocked when I completed it, and now it seems that I'm not able to bring her there despite my efforts. I've also looked around and found nothing about it.
hey devs where do i find the stats for everyone ive meet because i cant find it and i played the game awhile back and it was there. do i need to go so far into the story to unlock it or did you move it. cause i cant find it and it makes the game harder without it
If you don't get Jessica's adulttress quirk in the main story, you can't seem to get it later? (I didn't get this quirk, so I restarted the game from ACT1...)
Chloe's ability to absorb fey can absorb more powerful fey, such as lyx?
I see lyx said she did not know how Chloe is to resist the entropic energy, if the absorption of a more powerful fey will happen?
If it's a more powerful fey, like the ones in the council. And what will happen?
Of course, this is just a question, I do not want this to happen in the future, they are very good girls.
The members of the council only Qarinah is not awake (luna can also be Shatter, of course, I will not do so).
I do not know if there is any special meaning, of course, it is also possible that Qarinah originally had a good feeling for the main character.
For the leader of the Council, Morgana's end is what, I am very much looking forward to the follow-up development.
(Although Morgana is a very bad person, but she should be considered to have saved the life of the main character, so I do not hate this character very much...)
In addition, the assassin fey, who is sent here? There seems to be no explanation.
I'm not good at English, so I'm using a machine translation here, I hope it doesn't bother you
Yes, you only get one chance to unlock Jessica's Adultress Quirk. Quirks are like achievements, and also used to open or lock other content like it.
Chloe can only absorb Fey who are mostly energy-based (there are different kinds of Fey) and Lyx isn't one of them so no, she can't absorb her. She also can't absorb Asteria or Luna. She COULD absorb Qarinah and Roxy, theoretically, but both of them are far more powerful than she is right now.
You will be able to choose how you deal with Morgana :)
There are hints about who sent the assassin Fey, but no answers... yet ;)
Hey, I just wanted to say this game is amazing. I did not expect so much content and hidden things to find. This game blew my mind especially that one person is making it and I love that you take the time to answer questions and interact with your community you are a top tier creator. Keep up the great work!!!
Thank you! That really means a lot to hear :) I'm very glad you're enjoying the game, and I hope you continue to enjoy all the stuff I have planned for the future of CK (and other games)!
Donated 1$ thinking it will be like a 2-3 hours long small vn project, man have to say this blew me away, so much content, good story a lot of characters, good scenes, will be looking forward to every update!
How do you get the quiet girl in school not to run away and the girl in school that runs away from you in a survey to talk to you because i have max authority on school and im struggling
I really appreciate that this game has a lot more wholesome stuff recently (Personally I really hate NTR/Sharing) i hope it continues and the story is intriguing!
Thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying the game (yeah, no NTR/sharing here as Cursed mentioned) and I hope you continue to enjoy everything I have planned for the future! :)
I spent the last week playing through this, and I think I have done everything there currently is.
I downloaded this game on a recommendation as a Harem Game. I expected 20 minutes of acceptable at best fun, followed by an Uninstall and forget.
Instead, not only did I get some really good 'fun' scenes, I also got a captivating story, some of the best gameplay I've ever seen in a VN, and some great emotional moments that I really didn't expect at all.
The amount of variety this game has is astounding, and it's not even finished. I absolutely can't wait to see more.
Also, If anything bad ever happens to Roxy again, I'll find you, and you'll regret it ;)
For 99% of the animations, I used Koikatsu, along with the excellent mods that the community has provided :)
The other 1% (like Asteria exercising, the barbell lifting and the arm-wrestling) I made myself, which you can tell by the drastically lower quality :P
I would find it cool if you can make veronica to stop being such a bitch (maybe your slave) and maybe get her to life in the mansion! Overall more school content :)
College content, aside from uncovering the mystery of the Quiet Girl and the Sword Girl, is pretty much done, I'm afraid! It already has way more content than the other properties you can buy, and I don't want to turn CK into a school game ;)
The College will come into play in Act Three (provided you own it, and have achieved certain things) but not as an educational institute... DUN DUN DUUUUN!
Next, you can exit the Nexus through Morgana's place if you still haven't got a key of your own, which judging by your limited vocabulary, I'm guessing you couldn't get that far even if you tried
Act Three, then Epilogue, which will have three main endings each with three sub-endings, plus a "canon" ending for the game (as well as individual wrap-ups for each of the characters based on your actions throughout the game, and especially in Act Three)
I'm 100% sure, but I'm fairly certain that's just the Farm Upgrade. You can get it the same way as any other upgrade - from the Properties menu in Jessica's office :)
In the new update Arc made it so the education levels don't drop after you get to auth 5.
I really doubt we're going to have to keep raising authority and stuff in the future content. But if you didn't do the authority on act 2 then the content might not be available in act 3...
No more Authority raising needed, and as Cursed said you can "lock" your Education level once you hit maximum Authority (so I would advise making sure your Education level is nice and high, then locking and forgetting about it) :)
I had this game suggested to me by some random on Reddit, damn do I owe the guy a thank you. Easily one of the best games of the genre I've played, and learning that the project is not only still ongoing, but ACTIVELLY ongoing (looking at you ongoing games stuck for the past 9 years) fills me hope that I'll get to see the complete version some day (and fill me with something else that I'd best save for during gameplay).
I'm not a fan of Visual Novels but the story you have going on here kept me glued to the game long after finishing my business. This game is barely on it's 0.2 version and already has a deeper story than some full games around on the market, and not just the H ones.
Couple questions i'd love to get answers for though:
Does Yandere Mode affects anything? Played with it a bit but didn't notice any change appart from a single line of dialogue (supposedly), I just leave it off since yanderes are not my tea but I wondered if it actually did anything
Can we get more scenes with Claire? Pretty please? I'll buy you ice cream.
Does it help the lore if we keep exploring endlessly where we can (or places like the Bunker) or is the Explore action just to find new scenes for the gallery after we find the story-relevant stuff?
Really have high hopes for this game, and I can't wait for the next story arc to drop
It might take some time to get to the complete version. Things move slow, just one dev with weekly updates.
This has been going for 3 years already, Arc only posted the game here on the second aniversary.
The aim for final release seems to be on the 5th year or earlier... time will tell...
What 0.2? We're on 0.15 TBH the version numbers don't mean crap. 0.15.8 just means that the game has been updated 148 times since initial release 0.1.0 Yeah... One hundred and forty eight...
Yandere mode basically makes Gwen go crazy if you don't have sex with her at least once or twice a week. Your actions have consequences, even if you didn't know what you were doing. But don't worry, she won't hurt you or anyone the protagonist cares about. Not now, almost certainly not ever. She really can't be without you...
Claire will get content eventually, as with other girls, we need story progression. Something to note is that while Claire is not and will almost certainly never be a main girl, she will get more content than the average side girl. hmmmmm... freckles...
Most side events don't have an effect on main story yet... They might in the future... Perhaps not main story but more side stuff in the next act... But don't feel pressured to experience everything or rush to things. Take your time, smell the flowers.
Arc may have more things to say, I am not the dev I'm just unofficial tech support.
Useful info nonetheless, thank you very much, I did play around with yandere mode but I guess I never reached its conditions. Also about the consequences, do they affect stuff more than a gallery unlock? Been trying to figure this one out but couldn't get anything different from, say, receiving head or not from the puppet nun or stuff like that (I suppose you could say Molly or the 3 fey workers would be a major change but it still boils down to gallery unlocks).
Holy shit 148 times?! That's... a lot of updates
Wish we could track better how many secrets we still have to find tho, or at least find clues for them instead of just punching in random directions and hoping for the best. I found so far the caretaker and the volley team in the Outskirts. I found the ice cream girls, the car wash and the prostitute, as well as the apartment in town, and I found the goblin, the lamia, the fish and the summoner on the mountains, apart from story-related explorations, these were the ones I got so far. I wonder if there are more scenes for me to find, I really wanna get as many as I can before I hit the "unlock gallery" button for those that I really can't get anymore.
Speaking of secrets, do we have any more secret keys apart from the ones Chastity gives you? I'm really trying to find everything I can here, and the story is at the endpoint (for now) so nothing I can do except this (and fuck) to pass the time
Cursed covered everything relating to your original questions, so I'll pick up the baton for your follow-ups ;)
1. Yandere mode has three "stages" (minor, moderate and major) based on how long it's been since you last did naghty things with her and unlocks (right now) two extra scenes - one at "minor" and one at "major" and Gwen will start texting you at "moderate" and the texts will get more intense at "major". Also, you might notice something a little unsettling outside your bedroom window at night... more is planned but that's it for the moment.
2. Certain consequences will have stronger effects on the game world (such as certain characters being killed) but most are quite minor and only affect the "flavour" of your interactions. I'd love to have more branching consequences, but as a solo dev on a weekly schedule it's just not feasible, sadly :/ Act Three will be more streamlined, though, so expect more consequences to manifest then!
3. I've deliberately kept the secrets a little obscure in order to promote community interaction. Plus, there's nothing like that little thrill of excitement when you stumble on something unexpected! There's lists here and there around the internet, though, and you can check out the Discord server if you want to share your discoveries with others (and learn of theirs)!
4. There are three extra secret Keys for the Nexus, so far. One is useful and the other two are kinda jokes (one of which was requested by the Discord community). I won't tell you them outright (although again, Discord will if you're stuck) but here's some hints:
A) Think about a certain someone who laughs a lot
B) Think about a certain overworked game developer
C) I honestly can't think of a hint for this one... it's just "Padoru" :P
hahahaha that last one tho. "Hashire sori yo..." would be a nice hint, write it down for next time lol.
Thanks for taking your time to answer this barrage of questions Arc, I know the struggles of game development and can only imagine doing this full time, let alone completely solo (I had a small team but at least it was something).
Consequences being minor are not at all a bad thing, gives the game a more casual approach (just like not having a time limited window for doing events) that I really appreciate, especially on a game of this nature, sure I like my share of time constraints like Persona or something, but when I'm just running around doing whatever the fuck I'm in the mood for, that's great too.
I'll run around the areas some more then before I head over to the spoiler section, would you mind at least telling me where in the exploring zones i'm missing stuff (if I am at all)? I'll take it from there and try to find everything
Honestly, it would be interesting for the choices to have more of an effect but not only it would slow down development quite a bit. It would be a massive headache to keep track of all those branching paths. I've seen many devs try and fail at that.
Some of the explore areas need a power for you to progress, but some only have the content you see (which might be none at all)
So train with the goblin witch and see what powers could be useful in what situations.
Also the explore thing, if you go in a blank direction it will send you to some place you haven't seen before. If you have seen all places then it will do nothing (NOTE: The game considers you seeing something across all saves, hit the REMEMBER button to see the ones you've been to).
It looks like the 15.7 has a game breaking bug. I beat it before, but now Jessica won't appear for her first appearance (at the apartments where you begin).
Other than that, this is an awesome game! I just made the mistake of thinking it was done and abandoned, so I uninstalled it. Less than a week later I learned it is still going and is awesome!
No bug, as that part of the code hasn't been touched in three years ;)
You're missing an intermediate step: Either you haven't tried to speak to Emma in her room or you aren't properly leaving your flat - you have to actually travel to a new location then back to the flat. Exiting to map and clicking flat won't work.
I'm glad you're enjoying the game, regardless! And nope, not done, not abandoned. Weekly updates for the last three years (aside from one-week breaks every two months) and I intend to keep that going until the game is complete! :)
hello, for when it will come out to get Gwen pregnant, it would be curious how she would take it knowing that it is a little special if you ignore her, great game, I am following it since 0.12 and I love it, it is one of the best that I have played, great game
Hey so I tried finding the witch by exploring and after I found her hat by going south 3 times I wasn't able to find her anymore. I went north west and then south but it sent me back. Anything I missed perhaps? I've talked with Chloe.
Hi, is there a way to update my current game w/o having to install a full ZIP again and taking up more disk space each time? Unless that's not how it works, I'm not very familiar with how disk space is taken up and whatnot. Also, would installing new versions create any problems with save files from previous versions?
Well, yes if you're using the itch.io launcher you can download the game with it and afterwards when you update the game it will download only the changes. Very neat thing.
Saves are always compatible, very rarely they're not but to ensure your saves will keep working try saving in a "safe location" like the protagonist's bedroom.
Also you can delete the old versions of the game no problem, the saves are kept on a separate location in %appdata%\RenPy\CorruptedKingdoms-1547378918
Thank you for letting me know. I've just installed the launcher, is there any way to carry over the games I currently have downloaded? I've tried dragging in existing folders but they don't seem to work
I would try first downloading the version of the game that your saves were under in the launcher. Then go to the save games folder in the version that has your saves, select to copy the game save files, open the save game folder for the one downloaded through the launcher, and pasting them into the folder. Then open the game through the launcher, open the last save you had. If it works then create a new save and exit the game. Then download the newest version of the game, open the game, open the save game and then create a new save game under the updated version.
I can't put the game up on Steam because whilst Illusion has stated it's happy for indie devs to use its assets in their games, they don't yet have a formal licensing deal set up - and Steam requires that all assets be licensed.
Hello, there's been a problem I've been experiencing on my Lenovo Android 11. Whenever I play the game, it'll crash right after starting a new game. it happens all the time, even if I change the SDK a bit. Nothing changes.
I've even enabled permission of the app to manage all files, no difference.
Im wondering if you could fix this problem, thanks.
Unfortunately this is an issue with Ren'py and Android not getting along well - usually because of issues with graphics rendering. At a guess I'd say you're using a relatively older phone?
There's actually a potential fix in the latest version of Ren'py which I'll be upgrading to for next week's release (0.15.9) so if nothing else is working, hopefully that will!

As much as I want to play it, it doesn't seem to wamna run on my phone. Just crashes right after I hit Start.
Hmm... well the v0.15.9 version runs an updated SDK that should be more stable on Android OS. It's released to the public on Thursday, so maybe try it again then :)
So.. whos amy and hana?
Mouse Girl and Horn Girl :)
Dayum
potential spoilers for the school storyline:
Question, There's a girl who appears three times in the school storyline; she's a student, and the last time I saw her, she said something like "thanks for dealing with my mom." or something along those lines after taking over the school, so I assume her mother is one of the three mothers in the school storyline. Is she important, and will she get more screen time in future updates?
She's special, along with the Quiet Girl, and more will be uncovered in Act Three! :)
can't wait
How do I progress with the quiet girl in the library ar school?
Sadly not possible yet. It's planned for Act 3, just like the sword girl
Is the sword girl the same as the mysterious girl at school? If so, you've already answered a question I posted on here.
So, I reached this one thing, and this makes me wonder about what the story entails.
There was someone below saying something about enjoying that there is wholesomeness, as opposed to netorare (adultery/cheating). Yeah, I don't like seeing it, but by the way the game sometimes portrays itself, there's a dark, maybe unsettling, side that is important to the healthy development of the story.

I enjoy writing the wholesome and silly scenes a lot, but I also feel that contrasting it with darker, upsetting or unsettling scenes is important. Hence the murder mystery that caused a riot, and the more recent "Lil' Luna" event that seems to have scarred a few people :P
There will be a lot more laughs, a lot more silliness, and a lot more cute and wholesome scenes. But there's also going to be some scenes that are going to be hard to watch (if I can write them well enough) and a few tears shed by certain characters.
Stay tuned! ;)
Maybe I'm dense, but what was so scarring about the Lil' Luna event?
If you talk to Lyx, you get a hint as to what's going on with the last two levels being blocked.
In summary, something is blocking your full potential, and you have to find a way to stop it.
But you can't do that yet.
So no, you can't unlock the last two levels right now, nor in the next update.
i should give this game a try
You should! Studies have shown that people who play this game become five times more attractive and develop the ability to juggle.
(Studies were conducted by Lyx and are not guaranteed. Side effects may include loss of time, the feels, and inexplicable cravings for mangoes. Terms and conditions apply)
If the studies is by Lynx, will it make something...kaboom?
How do I progress with Roxy to get to the town?
I think you're talking about exploring the town? You have to be in the town map (the one with your Manor) and click on "EXPLORE". Then you need to find the burning building. You can do this by paying attention to the text hints that appear when you explore and find yourself in an "empty" scene (ie. one that doesn't play an event) :)
Can i bring the kids to their moms or them to kids?Lily said i should bring the kid to visit her in the bar but haven't seen any options yet
Most kids (except Emma as the time of writing this post)
Have at least one interaction with their mothers.
Kana's appears if you give her mom headpats and also at the festival.
Pixie's if you go on a bike ride (also appears in a random event with Chloe and Alice in the manor's garden)
Lily's if you go on a date at the park.
Jessica's will be in her mom's office during a Monday morning.
Madison will only agree to a beach date if you bring the kid.
Veronica's kid will make an option appear in the manor's exit.
Annie will have an option to check on the kid.
Asteria's will appear when you exercise.
Luna will have an option about her kid too... but it's not one I would like to repeat... you'll find out...
ty as always
question. i only unlocked the east wing after a bizzilan years. can i still invite people to live with me after i finished theyre quest like jessica's friends. and who all can i invite?
Yeah, Jessica's friends you need to see their second event.
Laura will appear in the living room as part of Jessica's story.
Renee will leave a message for you in Jessica's office.
Lucille likes to shop at night.
If you've done those, you can now ask Jessica during the morning to invite them in.
Then there are three other characters you can invite.
Two fey characters you get from the fey storline, it's plenty obvious what you're doing.
But if you didn't have the east wing fixed when you were faced with that choice, you have to go back to them and confirm they can move in.
The other one appears in Roxy's storyline. Again, obvious choice.
And I think she moves in anyway, but you can only talk to her once you fix the east wing.
Love your game.Its incredible,the story is deep and thats what makes it so great.
3 questions if i may.
My Gwen was on yandere (didn't even realize) now she has DAMAGED perk.
Can it be fixed somehow?
2nd.Can Chloe be fixed?
Kids aren't that important but if i can have them with many other girls
would like to be able to have them with girls who where there from the start.
That why i ask those questions.
3rd.After upgrading the manor(wing thing) are my only choices the girls who were selling their houses or will i get other options later on?I'm currently met 2 council member in main story if that helps
The yandere mode is on by default because it shows you the consequences of your actions in the end of act 1.
You can turn it off in preferences or sex her once or twice a week.
If she got damaged then you're screwed, it can't be reverted.
Most likely you won't be able to revert it either.
As for Chloe, also no but if I understand correctly the issue of finding out if you can (or even want) to fix Chloe is going to be addressed somewhere during the third act.
You can only have kids with main girls
(they have a heart card entry)that have reach love level 4(not all of them though)The girls that can get pregnant are: Kana, Pixie, Lily, Jessica, Madison, Veronica, Annie, Asteria, Luna and Emma.
The others haven't reached the proper love level, have said why they can't get pregnant or are a special case (like Gwen and Chloe)
Well, aside from Jessica's friends you can get 3 more characters to move in.
Two you get from the main story, fey lead. At some point you get the choice to rescue them.
Likewise, in Roxy's story you also meet a character that needs rescuing.
Just keep playing, The choice is quite obvious once you see it.
tnx for reply.Too bad about Gwen but don't fell like playing it all over again.Is there room capacity that i need to watch out for or its cool to invite Jess's friends and have room for the rest?
The east wing has as much room as you'll ever need.
I could cobble up something to "un-damage" Gwen, but you might have to contact me in the discord server, can't be arsed to try here.
thank you again.Its the official dc server from link above?although if it will take you a lot of work and take away your time then i don't wish that for you.
Yeah, in the official server, the link is somewhere in the page above.
And no, it doesn't really take me that much time, I'm just easily distracted.
This is a great game, and I highly enjoy it! I haven't finished the game yet, but when I do, I'll give a more in-depth review of it. But so far, I'm impressed!
Just have one question: Is there any way to invite Emma to the manor after having finished her questline? The manor upgrade for the East Wing wasn't unlocked when I completed it, and now it seems that I'm not able to bring her there despite my efforts. I've also looked around and found nothing about it.
Emma is a main girl, she stays in the west wing with Jessica, Gwen and Chloe.
The east wing is not needed.
Ah, I only just noticed that. Now I feel silly lmao
hey devs where do i find the stats for everyone ive meet because i cant find it and i played the game awhile back and it was there. do i need to go so far into the story to unlock it or did you move it. cause i cant find it and it makes the game harder without it
Stats for everyone you met?
Only thing like that are the heart cards, you unlock them in the second act when you first go outside to the map after waking up in the manor.
okay and thank you
This game is simply too good for a VN game. Awesome work.
Aww, thank you! I really appreciate that! :)
Hello.
If you don't get Jessica's adulttress quirk in the main story, you can't seem to get it later? (I didn't get this quirk, so I restarted the game from ACT1...)
Chloe's ability to absorb fey can absorb more powerful fey, such as lyx?
I see lyx said she did not know how Chloe is to resist the entropic energy, if the absorption of a more powerful fey will happen?
If it's a more powerful fey, like the ones in the council. And what will happen?
Of course, this is just a question, I do not want this to happen in the future, they are very good girls.
The members of the council only Qarinah is not awake (luna can also be Shatter, of course, I will not do so).
I do not know if there is any special meaning, of course, it is also possible that Qarinah originally had a good feeling for the main character.
For the leader of the Council, Morgana's end is what, I am very much looking forward to the follow-up development.
(Although Morgana is a very bad person, but she should be considered to have saved the life of the main character, so I do not hate this character very much...)
In addition, the assassin fey, who is sent here? There seems to be no explanation.
I'm not good at English, so I'm using a machine translation here, I hope it doesn't bother you
Yes, you only get one chance to unlock Jessica's Adultress Quirk. Quirks are like achievements, and also used to open or lock other content like it.
Chloe can only absorb Fey who are mostly energy-based (there are different kinds of Fey) and Lyx isn't one of them so no, she can't absorb her. She also can't absorb Asteria or Luna. She COULD absorb Qarinah and Roxy, theoretically, but both of them are far more powerful than she is right now.
You will be able to choose how you deal with Morgana :)
There are hints about who sent the assassin Fey, but no answers... yet ;)
I hope that answers your questions!
thanks for your answer
Hey, I just wanted to say this game is amazing. I did not expect so much content and hidden things to find. This game blew my mind especially that one person is making it and I love that you take the time to answer questions and interact with your community you are a top tier creator. Keep up the great work!!!
Thank you! That really means a lot to hear :) I'm very glad you're enjoying the game, and I hope you continue to enjoy all the stuff I have planned for the future of CK (and other games)!
Donated 1$ thinking it will be like a 2-3 hours long small vn project, man have to say this blew me away, so much content, good story a lot of characters, good scenes, will be looking forward to every update!
Thanks for the kind words and the donation! I very much appreciate both! :)
That 4th scene from the top (the blue suit in doggy position) how do I unlock that girl/scene? I have done everything in the game im pretty sure.
If you've done Roxy's story, you found the burning building.
Go back to it a few times.
How do you get the quiet girl in school not to run away and the girl in school that runs away from you in a survey to talk to you because i have max authority on school and im struggling
You can't.
That's not in the game yet.
Probably won't be for a while so, don't hold your breath.
What Cursed said :) Both girls are... special. You'll find out more about them in Act Three, provided you've achieved certain things in Act Two.
I really appreciate that this game has a lot more wholesome stuff recently (Personally I really hate NTR/Sharing) i hope it continues and the story is intriguing!
Yeah, that type of stuff doesn't really vibe with this game nor its audience.
Tho one thing that may happen is Netori.
Which, before you get jumpy, means you stealing someone else's girl.
Thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying the game (yeah, no NTR/sharing here as Cursed mentioned) and I hope you continue to enjoy everything I have planned for the future! :)
she spends wendsday in morgana's place
I spent the last week playing through this, and I think I have done everything there currently is.
I downloaded this game on a recommendation as a Harem Game. I expected 20 minutes of acceptable at best fun, followed by an Uninstall and forget.
Instead, not only did I get some really good 'fun' scenes, I also got a captivating story, some of the best gameplay I've ever seen in a VN, and some great emotional moments that I really didn't expect at all.
The amount of variety this game has is astounding, and it's not even finished. I absolutely can't wait to see more.
Also, If anything bad ever happens to Roxy again, I'll find you, and you'll regret it ;)
Aww, thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the game, and I hope you hold off on hitting that "uninstall" button long enough to see it through to the end! :)
(slowly slides notebook with "have Roxy sacrifice herself by generating a huge explosion with her own body to save MC" behind my back)
Kidding! Or am I? Only one way to find out! ;)
Did you make the animations yourself or did u use a app if so what app is it
For 99% of the animations, I used Koikatsu, along with the excellent mods that the community has provided :)
The other 1% (like Asteria exercising, the barbell lifting and the arm-wrestling) I made myself, which you can tell by the drastically lower quality :P
wow thank you , those animations u made yourself were actually good
I would find it cool if you can make veronica to stop being such a bitch (maybe your slave) and maybe get her to life in the mansion! Overall more school content :)
College content, aside from uncovering the mystery of the Quiet Girl and the Sword Girl, is pretty much done, I'm afraid! It already has way more content than the other properties you can buy, and I don't want to turn CK into a school game ;)
The College will come into play in Act Three (provided you own it, and have achieved certain things) but not as an educational institute... DUN DUN DUUUUN!
Well first of all, fuck you.
Next, you can exit the Nexus through Morgana's place if you still haven't got a key of your own, which judging by your limited vocabulary, I'm guessing you couldn't get that far even if you tried
This right here. As unright as this is gonna sound not only makes me laugh but earns my respect lol
Damn son, take a chill pill.
I'm very curious on what you have in mind, but I am certainly excited for it, Arc. The best wishes.
I hope you enjoy what I have planned! Well, enjoy most of it, anyway. Some of it is going to be sad. CUE THE SUPSENSEFUL MUSIC!
Dude, please... No deaths...
how do i get to the club?
buy the bar, then the club upgrade
thank you :D
hey, im just curious but how close do you think you are to finishing this game?
Another year - two at the absolute most. Act Three should move along much faster than Act Two did, and I'm excited to wrap up the story :)
Will act 3 be the ending or do you have some more stuff planned?
Act 3 is the final story act, then there's the epilogue.
Game might have different endings but one of them is going to be the "canon" ending.
Because Arc might use the same universe on future games.
But I'm almost certain it won't be the same protagonist.
What Cursed said :)
Act Three, then Epilogue, which will have three main endings each with three sub-endings, plus a "canon" ending for the game (as well as individual wrap-ups for each of the characters based on your actions throughout the game, and especially in Act Three)
can someone tell me how to repair the barn?
I'm 100% sure, but I'm fairly certain that's just the Farm Upgrade. You can get it the same way as any other upgrade - from the Properties menu in Jessica's office :)
thanks for the advice, but the problem is that I already tried to improve it that way and it doesn't appear available
Can I do anything with the shy girl in school or the girl when you do an survey and she rans away?
shy girl can be "accessed" in the classroom once you have max authority, the weird girl with a sword... idk about her
Both girls are... special. How special? Well, that will be revealed in Act Three... provided you've done enough in the college, of course ;)
i hope maximizing my authority is enough, if i have to get the education all the way up again i think i'll cry lmao
In the new update Arc made it so the education levels don't drop after you get to auth 5.
I really doubt we're going to have to keep raising authority and stuff in the future content.
But if you didn't do the authority on act 2 then the content might not be available in act 3...
No more Authority raising needed, and as Cursed said you can "lock" your Education level once you hit maximum Authority (so I would advise making sure your Education level is nice and high, then locking and forgetting about it) :)
do you plan on adding more yandere content or keep it to gwen?
More yandere content for Gwen, but almost certainly not for anyone else, unless it's a side character for Gwen to fight ;)
I had this game suggested to me by some random on Reddit, damn do I owe the guy a thank you. Easily one of the best games of the genre I've played, and learning that the project is not only still ongoing, but ACTIVELLY ongoing (looking at you ongoing games stuck for the past 9 years) fills me hope that I'll get to see the complete version some day (and fill me with something else that I'd best save for during gameplay).
I'm not a fan of Visual Novels but the story you have going on here kept me glued to the game long after finishing my business. This game is barely on it's 0.2 version and already has a deeper story than some full games around on the market, and not just the H ones.
Couple questions i'd love to get answers for though:
Really have high hopes for this game, and I can't wait for the next story arc to drop
It might take some time to get to the complete version.
Things move slow, just one dev with weekly updates.
This has been going for 3 years already, Arc only posted the game here on the second aniversary.
The aim for final release seems to be on the 5th year or earlier... time will tell...
What 0.2? We're on 0.15
TBH the version numbers don't mean crap. 0.15.8 just means that the game has been updated 148 times since initial release 0.1.0
Yeah... One hundred and forty eight...
Yandere mode basically makes Gwen go crazy if you don't have sex with her at least once or twice a week.
Your actions have consequences, even if you didn't know what you were doing.
But don't worry, she won't hurt you or anyone the protagonist cares about. Not now, almost certainly not ever.
She really can't be without you...
Claire will get content eventually, as with other girls, we need story progression.
Something to note is that while Claire is not and will almost certainly never be a main girl, she will get more content than the average side girl.
hmmmmm... freckles...Most side events don't have an effect on main story yet... They might in the future... Perhaps not main story but more side stuff in the next act...
But don't feel pressured to experience everything or rush to things.
Take your time, smell the flowers.
Arc may have more things to say, I am not the dev I'm just unofficial tech support.
Useful info nonetheless, thank you very much, I did play around with yandere mode but I guess I never reached its conditions. Also about the consequences, do they affect stuff more than a gallery unlock? Been trying to figure this one out but couldn't get anything different from, say, receiving head or not from the puppet nun or stuff like that (I suppose you could say Molly or the 3 fey workers would be a major change but it still boils down to gallery unlocks).
Holy shit 148 times?! That's... a lot of updates
Wish we could track better how many secrets we still have to find tho, or at least find clues for them instead of just punching in random directions and hoping for the best. I found so far the caretaker and the volley team in the Outskirts. I found the ice cream girls, the car wash and the prostitute, as well as the apartment in town, and I found the goblin, the lamia, the fish and the summoner on the mountains, apart from story-related explorations, these were the ones I got so far. I wonder if there are more scenes for me to find, I really wanna get as many as I can before I hit the "unlock gallery" button for those that I really can't get anymore.
Speaking of secrets, do we have any more secret keys apart from the ones Chastity gives you? I'm really trying to find everything I can here, and the story is at the endpoint (for now) so nothing I can do except this (and fuck) to pass the time
I'm glad you're enjoying the game! :)
Cursed covered everything relating to your original questions, so I'll pick up the baton for your follow-ups ;)
1. Yandere mode has three "stages" (minor, moderate and major) based on how long it's been since you last did naghty things with her and unlocks (right now) two extra scenes - one at "minor" and one at "major" and Gwen will start texting you at "moderate" and the texts will get more intense at "major". Also, you might notice something a little unsettling outside your bedroom window at night... more is planned but that's it for the moment.
2. Certain consequences will have stronger effects on the game world (such as certain characters being killed) but most are quite minor and only affect the "flavour" of your interactions. I'd love to have more branching consequences, but as a solo dev on a weekly schedule it's just not feasible, sadly :/ Act Three will be more streamlined, though, so expect more consequences to manifest then!
3. I've deliberately kept the secrets a little obscure in order to promote community interaction. Plus, there's nothing like that little thrill of excitement when you stumble on something unexpected! There's lists here and there around the internet, though, and you can check out the Discord server if you want to share your discoveries with others (and learn of theirs)!
4. There are three extra secret Keys for the Nexus, so far. One is useful and the other two are kinda jokes (one of which was requested by the Discord community). I won't tell you them outright (although again, Discord will if you're stuck) but here's some hints:
A) Think about a certain someone who laughs a lot
B) Think about a certain overworked game developer
C) I honestly can't think of a hint for this one... it's just "Padoru" :P
Hope that helps! :)
hahahaha that last one tho. "Hashire sori yo..." would be a nice hint, write it down for next time lol.
Thanks for taking your time to answer this barrage of questions Arc, I know the struggles of game development and can only imagine doing this full time, let alone completely solo (I had a small team but at least it was something).
Consequences being minor are not at all a bad thing, gives the game a more casual approach (just like not having a time limited window for doing events) that I really appreciate, especially on a game of this nature, sure I like my share of time constraints like Persona or something, but when I'm just running around doing whatever the fuck I'm in the mood for, that's great too.
I'll run around the areas some more then before I head over to the spoiler section, would you mind at least telling me where in the exploring zones i'm missing stuff (if I am at all)? I'll take it from there and try to find everything
Honestly, it would be interesting for the choices to have more of an effect but not only it would slow down development quite a bit. It would be a massive headache to keep track of all those branching paths.
I've seen many devs try and fail at that.
Some of the explore areas need a power for you to progress, but some only have the content you see (which might be none at all)
So train with the goblin witch and see what powers could be useful in what situations.
Also the explore thing, if you go in a blank direction it will send you to some place you haven't seen before.
If you have seen all places then it will do nothing (NOTE: The game considers you seeing something across all saves, hit the REMEMBER button to see the ones you've been to).
It looks like the 15.7 has a game breaking bug. I beat it before, but now Jessica won't appear for her first appearance (at the apartments where you begin).
Other than that, this is an awesome game! I just made the mistake of thinking it was done and abandoned, so I uninstalled it. Less than a week later I learned it is still going and is awesome!
No bug, as that part of the code hasn't been touched in three years ;)
You're missing an intermediate step: Either you haven't tried to speak to Emma in her room or you aren't properly leaving your flat - you have to actually travel to a new location then back to the flat. Exiting to map and clicking flat won't work.
I'm glad you're enjoying the game, regardless! And nope, not done, not abandoned. Weekly updates for the last three years (aside from one-week breaks every two months) and I intend to keep that going until the game is complete! :)
Didn't speak to Emma at the right time. I kept trying mornings and then working in the bar afterwards.
hello, for when it will come out to get Gwen pregnant, it would be curious how she would take it knowing that it is a little special if you ignore her, great game, I am following it since 0.12 and I love it, it is one of the best that I have played, great game
Thanks, I'm glad you're enjoying the game! :)
Gwen (and Chloe) will be able to get pregnant at some point in Act Three, so I'm afraid you'll have to wait a little while for that.
Ohhhh ok ok, thank you, I love the Game, congrants!!:)
Hey so I tried finding the witch by exploring and after I found her hat by going south 3 times I wasn't able to find her anymore. I went north west and then south but it sent me back. Anything I missed perhaps? I've talked with Chloe.
Check the hat in your inventory :)
Huge fan of the first MILF in the property visits mission with Jessica. Please tell me there will be more content with her...
You mean Laura? Yes, you get a second event with her and later on you can get her to move into the the Manor :)
Hi, is there a way to update my current game w/o having to install a full ZIP again and taking up more disk space each time? Unless that's not how it works, I'm not very familiar with how disk space is taken up and whatnot. Also, would installing new versions create any problems with save files from previous versions?
Well, yes if you're using the itch.io launcher you can download the game with it and afterwards when you update the game it will download only the changes. Very neat thing.
Saves are always compatible, very rarely they're not but to ensure your saves will keep working try saving in a "safe location" like the protagonist's bedroom.
Also you can delete the old versions of the game no problem, the saves are kept on a separate location in
%appdata%\RenPy\CorruptedKingdoms-1547378918
Thank you for letting me know. I've just installed the launcher, is there any way to carry over the games I currently have downloaded? I've tried dragging in existing folders but they don't seem to work
I would try first downloading the version of the game that your saves were under in the launcher. Then go to the save games folder in the version that has your saves, select to copy the game save files, open the save game folder for the one downloaded through the launcher, and pasting them into the folder. Then open the game through the launcher, open the last save you had. If it works then create a new save and exit the game. Then download the newest version of the game, open the game, open the save game and then create a new save game under the updated version.
Hi,
Is this a demo or full game (in Early Access) ?
Are you going to sell it on Steam or other plateform when it's finished?
You could say early access, game is being developed with updates each week.
As for selling it on Steam, I don't think Arc can do that.
Probably should've let him answer...
Basically what Cursed said :)
I can't put the game up on Steam because whilst Illusion has stated it's happy for indie devs to use its assets in their games, they don't yet have a formal licensing deal set up - and Steam requires that all assets be licensed.
Maybe the next game! :)
Hello, there's been a problem I've been experiencing on my Lenovo Android 11. Whenever I play the game, it'll crash right after starting a new game. it happens all the time, even if I change the SDK a bit. Nothing changes.
I've even enabled permission of the app to manage all files, no difference.
Im wondering if you could fix this problem, thanks.
Unfortunately this is an issue with Ren'py and Android not getting along well - usually because of issues with graphics rendering. At a guess I'd say you're using a relatively older phone?
There's actually a potential fix in the latest version of Ren'py which I'll be upgrading to for next week's release (0.15.9) so if nothing else is working, hopefully that will!
