Hello, if there a guide or checklist for all the side content? I know Act 3 is a point of no return and I want to make sure I haven't missed anything before I move on
I don't think there is no real checklist for the game, but you can romance all the girls and get max stats. Other than all of that, you can use the explore mechanic and find extra side girls for more scenes. Also the Act 2 finale isn't quite finished yet so I recommend having a save file prior to activating the finale so you can still go back.
What bloodnguts said :) There's no official walkthrough (there is a wikia, but it's not consistently updated) but the community is very active over on the CK Discord server and are always happy to discuss secrets and side content :)
Got a question, will taking the artifact in the act two finale have any serious everlasting consequences? I really don't want to get too far in the game just to find out that I messed up on a good ending or missed out on content because of it.
Also this literally is the best NSFW game I've ever played. For the first time ever, I'm actually really interested in the story! I also can't get enough of the interactions with Lyx, it's soooo good. The only thing I wish for is more interactions with the kids in the daycare.
Hey, thanks for the kind words and I'm glad you're enjoying the game! :) I'd really like to do more wholesome scenes with the kids too, but it's an optional system that a lot of people turn off, and as a solo dev I have to be very careful with my time and try to give everyone as much content as possible every week :/
As for the relic, yes, it's an important decision. The game has given you hints throughout as to what the "correct" choice is, but even if you made the "wrong" one, you will be given a chance to remedy it if you explore Act Three carefully :)
It seems like that some data is persistent, even if you load an earlier savefile or start a new game. This comes up with Lyx's quest to read minds, with the mind-reading counter increased despite having loaded a save prior to the quest. Exploration points also have their Remember directions retained on a fresh playthrough.
Yeah, the first is a quirk of Ren;py (the underlying SDK) and the latter was to stop people complaining :P
Basically, the "Hidden Voices" skill has to use an extra "instance" of the game, so that players can use it without interrupting ongoing conversations or events. Unfortunately, the way Ren'py is designed, you can't pass standard variables across instances - you can only pass persistent variables. Hopefully this will change before CK is finished so I can redo the code.
As for remembering the exploration directions, that was because when the EXPLORE system was introduced it got a lot of complaints from people who didn't want to have to work for their content. So I made the events mostly appear automatically and the "remember" function permanent. The latter will be removed from the final build.
As I understand it, there has been a revision of Renpy that was a released - adding support for Python 3. Would updating CK to that version allow for correcting the quirk, among whatever else that plagues developers?
Anyhow, thanks for the response. It is good to see developers address bugs and commentaries, it makes me feel like reporting issues as I find them. Hopefully, I will (not) find issues, but will keep an eye out.
Found a bug. During loading, when earphone are plugged in, the game won't make any sound. If plugged in before launching the game or after loading it just works fine.
Not a bug with the game, but with the underlying software I'm afraid. For some reason it interacts very weirdly with certain earphones/headphones on certain devices. Nothing to be done about it unless the creator of Ren'py can track down the issue and fix it, sadly.
Well I'm a gigantic Legacy of Kain fan (LoK and Soul Reaver remakes when!?) so it wouldn't surprise me if some of that managed to seep out of my subconscious and into my work ;)
Keeping the filesize down is one of my top priorities :) All animations are in webm, almost all images in webp and I run the music and sound files through a compressor.
I'm hoping to keep the final build below 2GB - which is still larger than I'd like - as I know a lot of people struggle with slow or unreliable internet or have data caps.
That's the Hallowe'en outfit. You have to purchase and apply all the Hallowe'en decorations (coffin bed, jack o' lantern and witch poster) in your Manor bedroom, then visit the dungeons at night :)
I have a problem with the latest version the heart icon on the top left of the screen that shows all the girls mission isn't there after i finish escaping from up lab. please fix this it really hard to know what to do next
The heart icon is in the top-right, not the top-left, and doesn't appear in the game until you exit the Manor after the events of the Act One finale (which is what I'm assuming you mean by "escaping from lab").
I just googled stuff and ios user can install this game but arc need to make .ipa file which is the ios version of apk. I don't know about the coding stuff but dev might need to re-write the game with different language code. Just giving some knowledge.
Even if "re-writing the game with different language code" wasn't a gargantuan task that would take a team of developers at least a year to accomplish (which it is) there's still a number of hurdles for the end user to overcome. The main one being that you can't simply download and install an IPA file like you do with an APK file - there's a whole slew of steps, software and cabling that you need to go through to make it work, and that's every single time an update comes out.
Believe me, I'm not closing off a potential revenue stream just because I'm lazy or contrary. Apple devices are "closed systems". They're specifically designed to make downloading apps outside their store as impossible as they can. If you want to use your phone primarily as a gaming platform - or want to bypass region locks, install adult games or get sneaky access to closed betas - then you need to buy Android.
There's a reason why nobody (to my knowledge) makes iOS ports of Ren'py games ;P
You would be correct in that Apple actively hobbles their users from partaking of the Ren'py gaming kingdom, or any other games outside of their curated selections.
Android and other "off brand" is just more friendly towards modding and gaming.
They're super jealous of their digital ecosystem, for sure. I have to wonder if that will change, with recent litigation and a decreasing market share... I certainly hope so! Closed systems stagnate growth, and more choice/freedom is always better :)
Haha, not "stupid" - get whatever phone you like best and which best suits your lifestyle! No judgement here. Just, as with everything else, make sure you do your research and make an informed choice :)
Hello I love your game I reached the end to the available content long ago... But can't find the 2 fish girls..i go to nexus put the "whistle" key but it just throws me out also can't find the 2nd girl
Have you gone to the Marina and clicked on "Think about the fishgirls"? You have to do that to trigger the questline, which allows you to find the first fish girl by whistling in the Nexus.
The second fish girl is in the Mountains. Click on "Explore" and either keep exploring until you find her (it'll happen automatically if you haven't found her yet) or else click on "remember" to get a list of directions to all the places you've been. You're looking for the "lake monster".
Unfortunately Android and Ren'py don't always play together. It could be that you have either a very old phone or an extremely new one (some models running Android 11+ don't work), or it could be that you don't have enough free space, or it could simply be that your download was corrupted by a micro-outage in your internet or something similar.
Try:
1. Completely powering down your phone then turning it on again (I know, it's a solution so old it's a joke, but it genuinely fixes 90% of reported issues)
2. Erase the game (backup your saves if you have any), download the APK again and install it. Don't use the previous APK you downloaded!
If the above doesn't work then it's almost certainly an issue with your phone model and Android version and the only thing to do is to wait for Ren'py to be updated.
thank you for answering. My device is only 4gb ram. I also tried what you recommended to me but it still crashes. Its a shame that i dont get to play this rn but still thank you
What exactly is the problem you're having? You don't get the "Use a Key" option? Or it doesn't work when you click it? Or the keyboard doesn't work? Or something else?
Hi, love your work, it's been great playing so far! I have a couple of questions if you don't mind: will you advance upon the kunoichis living near you Grandpa's house? Cuz you don't get to do much with the head kunochi :( also I'll understand if you don't wanna say but, is there a rough estimate when the whole game will be completed? Maybe in another year? Regardless, amazing work so far!
I'm glad you're enjoying the game so far, and thanks for the kind words! :)
1. There will be a lot more kunoichi content, including more naughtiness with Sawano (the "head kunoichi")
2. I'm hoping to have CK completed within one or two years at the most, at which point I will start prototyping the next game whilst simultaneously running polish passes over CK (fixing, tweaking, adding new events, etc.)
Hope that answers your questions, but if there's anything else you'd like to ask, feel free!
For starters, mad respect for spending the time and energy to communicate with all the ppl on this site, I've seen you reply to so many of the comments.
And thanks so much for letting me know there is going to be more kunoichi content. My personal favorite is chiyomi x) she reminds me of shenhe from genshin impact
This game is a ton of fun so far (just past the first major event) and now that things have opened up some more, I'm wondering if there are any missable events or character cards.
Normally wouldn't worry too much but this game is deeper than I thought it would be and my completionist anxiety is flaring up. I abuse all the slave slots already, but knowing would definitely help, thanks!
So far the game only has 2 acts (or rather, a prologue and the first act given the length and depth of act 1) since you're in act 2 you can't lock yourself out of content by progressing too far, only by making certain choices can you miss few scenes and dialogue (or rather, choose certain scenes over others).
None of the character cards can be missed, only side characters (who don't have one) can potentially be missed, usually the ones found through "explore"
Kind of a copypaste of a comment under a comment but I ended up writing more than expected so worth posting as a full one I think.
Also could patches be released instead of full new versions? the full download can be somewhat heavy but it might require a lot lf work to make separate patches toupgrade from the latest version to the new release.
anyways here's my constructive feedback
I wish we had more smaller and medium breasts among the main cast (Lily, Gwen etc.... are great and proportionate but definitely big) I think Lyx could use a reduction and Chloes size seems inconsistent, she's amazing in the bath tub scene but looks more like Jessica in the toilet doggystyle one, I'd especially like to have a more mature character more subtle proportions (basically the opposite of Pixie), pure elegance.
Dialogue options where your character doesn't react so turned on around Madison and such but acts more aroused around girls like Kana or Qarinah (whom the main character almost sounds to be fucking out of pity, loneliness or emotional attraction without any physical interest) if you've chosen to avoid the scenes with the thicker Milfs would be appreciated.
Thanks for your feedback - it's always useful to recieve!
Patches are already available if you use PC, Mac or Linux - just use the Itch app! :) Unfortunately, Android patches are impossible despite the community's best efforts to make them work.
Nobody is ever going to be 100% happy with the proportions of all the girls, and trying to please all of the people all of the time just leads to madness. All the girl's breasts are consistently sized, but obviously different positions will stretch or compact them in different ways.
The branching and nesting of if/else statements required to check who you've slept with and adjust the dialogue based on those variables plus who you're talking to would also lead to madness. Instead, what I have tried to do - and will expand upon during the final polish phase of the game - is to give a dialogue option for players to choose how they react during initial meetings (Madison already has this).
As a solo dev on a weekly schedule I have to be careful to the point of obsession on what I add to the game - a few minutes here, a few there, and suddenly there's no time in the week for the main update content. Thus, sadly, certain corners have to be cut.
Hope that answers your questions/concerns - if not to your satisfaction, then at least so you can understand why things are the way they are :)
I've progressed further into the game and unlocked the Demesnes, Morgana's servants and ownership of the College among other things.
I gotta say this has generously brought me the diversity I was lacking. The tournament practice in Asterias demesne for example, all 3 (technically 4) girls were different and appealed to one part of me or another, personally I prefer Zoe, it's cute how she stays around to help with the trainings, but all of them were great (Alexasteponme).
I also liked how Veronica and Madisons questline ended up, sure Madison is still around despite being constantly rejected but the changes that occurred in dialogue and the aftermath of Madison becoming her slave are fantastic.
Another thing that surprised me was how in-depth the childrens feature was despite being an Alpha, it gives more insight into the characters and it's great to see the motherly side of some girls.
Taking all of this into consideration, I believe you should try to rework act 1 before getting too far into the final phases of development, it's the first impressions and as it currently stands it fails at giving a proper look into what to expect from the game.
Also gib moar Jackie, she deserves to have as much fun as Jackie? with enough trust.
I'm glad you're enjoying things more as they open up :) This is my first game, so a lot of the Prologue/Act One was me figuring out the SDK and modelling software, trying out ideas and seeing what worked and what didn't.
Once the game is in a beta state I'll be going back over the whole thing to polish, refine, add more events and generally bring the whole thing up to par. I'm expecting that to take a few months :P
Much more Jackie (plus Jackie?) to come in Act Three! Revelations abound!
Yeah, it's just something Itch's uploader does to the file sometimes for no discernible reason. As Amr said, you can use zarchiver or any other unzipper of your choice to open the file and get the apk. Sorry for the inconvenience!
I've got another couple of questions. 1st: The event with the burning house, where I can save Samantha, is repeatable. Is there a certain reason for this? (I know there's something to be found on the first floor, too.) 2nd: After saving Samantha, where and under which conditions do I meet Jackie? Edit: I noticed there's something going on with the first floor. BUT: It's absolutely annoying to see the character say "Maybe I should check the first floor again" after saving Samantha, only to find one of the same three clues once again. It's confusing and frustrating. Why isn't this explained better, to let the player know they're done searching?
Try advancing Roxy's storyline a bit and then exploring the first floor, after witch you should be able to meet Jackie after going back to the apartment a few times
This game is amazing congratulations on making a work of art its pulled me in and i just cant get enough i myself never could have a son and the parent system is awsome not to mention the othe slice of life effects the charachter development and the many fantastic fantasy style naughty times are perfect.
Thanks for the kind words! I appreciate it, and I'm glad you're enjoying CK - especially the slice of life and parent stuff :) I hope you continue to enjoy everything I have planned for the future!
Hi, I can not conftont two other feys with evidence after one of the events ( this with morgana, i dont want to spoil anything). First one works very well but the last two dont even if I choose right evidence. Any help please?
After you confront the first person successfully, it will update their statement. That statement now conflicts with someone else's statement. Confront the next person with the updated statement. And so on :)
Have you talked to Dhena to unlock Ami's room? If so have you reported back to Morgana? if so have you confronted Dhena about Ami's book? If so have you confronted Erica about Emmet? If you've done all that then confront ard, and then Hannah. You will also have to talk to ami a few times can't remember when.
Sometimes the gallery doesn't unlock the scene you already saw. Load into your game and open your laptop in the manor and use cheat to unlock the gallery. It will unlock all scenes in the gallery though.
I just go back and the game into a new slot whenever I'm about to enter a scene.
So so far I've been playing this game for about 3 weeks now. This is my second time playing a visual novel type game, and my first time playing an NSFW game of any kind as well, and damn! Even with no prior experience I didn't have much expectations going into this. I mean it's a hentai game, I thought, the game will probably have no substance other than sex, but boy was I wrong.
I seriously was not expecting for me to care about characters or story. Like there's some legit sad and happy moments in this game that make me forget I'm even playing a hentai game. Over all I love the game and it's characters. Although I'm not into the really exaggerated proportions of some of the girls, (I'm mostly a moderate size and long hair kind of person) there's still a lot to like here and in the multiple girls. 10/10 experience.
Side note: Veronica outside of the college does something to me, and I blame it on the stocking/tights.
Hey, thanks for the kind words! I'm glad you're enjoying the it, and flattered that CK could be your first experience with an adult game! :) I hope you continue to enjoy everything that I have planned for the future!
Couldn't have said it better, the writing is engaging, the scenes are great and there's enough freedom in the gameplay to make it, well, a game but then you stumble upon important characters like Jessica or Madison and you gotta seduce them for progress but damn I really cannot see that as attractive.
I wish we had more smaller and medium breasts among the main cast (Lily, Gwen etc.... are great and proportionate but definitely big) I think Lyx could use a reduction and Chloes size seems inconsistent, she's amazing in the bath tub scene but looks more like Jessica in the toilet doggystyle one.
Dialogue options where your character doesn't react so turned on around Madison and such but acts more aroused around girls like Kana or Qarinah (whom the character almost sounds to be fucking out of pity or emotional attraction without any physical interest) if you've chosen to avoid the scenes with Milfs would be appreciated.
Hello Arc, it is I again, the guy who reviews games (well this one specifically) despite having no idea how to do so. Anyways with that out of the way let me add a bit to my previous review. A part 2 if you would.
Now first things first I played through the game again, chose different choices... A few you have to be absolutely heartless to make. And well I found the ONLY and I mean O.N.L.Y thing you can nitpick this game for, and that is the choices don't seem to matter all that much. A few dialogue changes here and there but that's it.
(Spoiler alert btw)
Now obviously some choices do matter, those being the choices with Morgana's staff (And the other girls to can invite to the manor). But I found most dialogue choices don't actually impact the game all that much. Or at least not yet. I have a sneaking suspicion I will eat my words when act 3 comes rolling around.
But damn 50,000 crystals? It's almost worth it... Almost.
Anyways on to more pleasant matters, I recently bought some headphones, this way I can enjoy the music of this game worry free... Only the music... Nothing else... Okay maybe a little more than the music but nonetheless I only have one thing to say. I play this game to busy a nut, not a move okay? So chill with the bangers a lil. (Fr the music is good.)
Oh and Emma sounds absolutely amazing.
Now for this next part I'm not sure if I should congratulate you, or send you to therapy. Quarinah. Qarninah? Qaraniah? Dammit gimme a sec... Qarinah. Yeah Qarinah how do you even pronounce that...? Oh. Right. Anyways, once again I must remind you, I am here to bust a nut, not cry myself to sleep okay? And Luna? What's up with all that? Are you trying to give me depression!?
Ahem. Moving on. Something I didn't quite give enough attention to in my last review. World building.
This I must congratulate you on. I mean come on it's all so well done to the point I can't talk about any single thing without bringing up everything else. The nexus, the fey, the eldritch, the numbers, the org, GRAMPS, it's all connected! Not to mention the dreams, or the organization, or the summoner who isn't fey and most likely isn't eldritch. It's all so much, and so well done. So for this I congratulate you.
Seriously you have a once in a generation talent for world building. It's incredible.
So dear Arc, I thank you for bringing this wonderful masterpiece into fruition. Oh but if you lewd any of the lolis I will show no mercy. Anyways toodles! (But seriously good job 👍)
Edit/sidenote; I wish I could support the Patreon, but due to personal reasons I simply cannot. But nevertheless you have and a fan of me for life! And in due time I shall show my appreciation! Until next time then Arc. Cheers!
Hey, thanks for the Part 2 in-depth review! :) It's always valuable to get detailed feedback, so I appreciate it!
The choices not having consequences (yet) is unfortunately a sacrifice I had to make as a solo dev - to make a truly branching storyline would expand the scope of the game to the point where it'd take ten years to finish and each update would only contain about three seconds of content for individual players. I agree, though; it'd be nice if they had more impact! That being said, your choices will have much more of an impact in Act Three. Better get those hearts up to four! You have been warned ;)
Qarinah and Luna... well hey, just be glad that I didn't go with my original plan of having Jessica be evil and impale Emma through the chest right in front of your eyes! So much blood. I have the renders. They upset me, so the story was changed ;P
World-building... aw, shucks. I'm just a novice, but I try to learn and do a little better every day. Emphasis on "try" ;)
The kiddos (including Alice) will not ever be lewdable. They are innocent little treasures and their smiles must be protected. Although there will likely be an adult Alice in CK3. Time jumps, y'know.
Don't worry about the Patreon :) Honestly, so long as people play the game and enjoy it, that's enough for me! This is my first game, and the outpouring of support has been tears-to-the-eyes humbling and amazing. I honestly can't thank everyone enough for all the kindness and support (emotional and financial) they've shown.
You were... Emma... Aunt jessica... You... Definitely need therapy. But damn what a twist that would have been. Well now that I think about it, Aunt Jess hasn't been directly told not to hunt fey...
After the Corrupted Kingdom ends and is polished, do you want to make a cut content where you include/compare and make a short story of how you actually planned stuff to be. I wanna know why Jessica become that evil and how dark the story should actually go.
Gwen has four Yandere "stages" - None, Minor, Moderate and Major. Whenever you do naughty things with her, her "Yandere level" decreases and whenever you go a day without doing any naughty things it increases slightly. Realistically you only have to be naughty with her once a week to keep her at her current level.
The "smelling you" and "knife at night" events will only occur once for each time she enters that stage. The texts cap out at ten for each stage and you can also talk to her in her room to tell her to stop texting you.
There's no way to remove the "Damaged" Quirk once it's activated, but getting her back down to "None" on the Yandere stages removes all her Yandere events.
You can also simply turn off all the Yandere content in Preferences :)
1. Arc's gonna have to tally another point for me... On 0.16.2 you get nothing, there is no more content with them. Next update will have a little bit of content, but the update is smaller overall since Arc had some IRL issues to deal with.
2. There's no content with her. Turns out people just forget she even exists, so Arc decided to postpone her content into act 3 so we can get there faster. In act 3 she might have a higher degree of relevance in terms of story.
Good to know. And what about the personalities (?) that are greyed out on the character cards? Are these also Act 3, or can I already unlock them? I tried looking for a Wiki for guidance, but the one I found was very outdated.
Yeah, TBH none of us can be arsed to actually work on it.
If you're playing on a current version, all the ones you see are the ones you can unlock. Back in the day the cards had more of these quirks, but there wasn't really any way to tell which ones are in the game or not.
They're pretty much achievements at this point, plan is to have them gatekeep content. Which is why I say, don't feel pressured to unlock them all, you probably don't want all of them. I don't really want Gwen's "Damaged" for example.
I deactivated the Yandere stuff for Gwen, since I'm absolutely not into that. I'm mostly interested into the one for Jessica, since I really like her. Pixie could be interesting, too.
All in all, the game is a lot of fun so far. Not just simple "bla bla bla, okay let's bang", but a good amount of dialogue with characters that often are really likeable.
Pixie's "cocksleeve" you get by banging her in her normal size.
Jessica's "auntie" is obvious and "adultress" is part of her story, to be precise, her 4th heart event. Provided you know what adultery means you have to pick the right option.

Loving the new animation additions on the update!
I'm glad you're enjoying them! :)
Hello, if there a guide or checklist for all the side content? I know Act 3 is a point of no return and I want to make sure I haven't missed anything before I move on
I don't think there is no real checklist for the game, but you can romance all the girls and get max stats.

Hello, I would like to ask what is the function of "typing sounds" in the menu?
My English is not good, I used machine translation, hope it didn't cause trouble for you
It does what it says, it makes typewriter sounds whenever the protagonist talks.
Got a question, will taking the artifact in the act two finale have any serious everlasting consequences? I really don't want to get too far in the game just to find out that I messed up on a good ending or missed out on content because of it.
Also this literally is the best NSFW game I've ever played. For the first time ever, I'm actually really interested in the story! I also can't get enough of the interactions with Lyx, it's soooo good. The only thing I wish for is more interactions with the kids in the daycare.
Hey, thanks for the kind words and I'm glad you're enjoying the game! :) I'd really like to do more wholesome scenes with the kids too, but it's an optional system that a lot of people turn off, and as a solo dev I have to be very careful with my time and try to give everyone as much content as possible every week :/

You may not rest now there's no new update nearby (sorry I have to)
(hefts my diamond pickaxe onto one shoulder) Guess it's back to the mines for me, then!
It seems like that some data is persistent, even if you load an earlier savefile or start a new game. This comes up with Lyx's quest to read minds, with the mind-reading counter increased despite having loaded a save prior to the quest. Exploration points also have their Remember directions retained on a fresh playthrough.
Yeah, the first is a quirk of Ren;py (the underlying SDK) and the latter was to stop people complaining :P

Anyhow, thanks for the response. It is good to see developers address bugs and commentaries, it makes me feel like reporting issues as I find them. Hopefully, I will (not) find issues, but will keep an eye out.
Early Game: Bust a Nut
Mid Game: Bust a Nut
Late Game: Bust a Tear
Man, The Story's Really Got Me Good:') Keep Up The Good Work!!
It's the greatest compliment a solo dev can get, to know that their work touched a chord - so thank you! I really appreciate it :)
Great game with Great potential, can't wait to see what you come up with next.
Thanks, I'm glad you're enjoying it! :)
Found a bug. During loading, when earphone are plugged in, the game won't make any sound. If plugged in before launching the game or after loading it just works fine.
Not a bug with the game, but with the underlying software I'm afraid. For some reason it interacts very weirdly with certain earphones/headphones on certain devices. Nothing to be done about it unless the creator of Ren'py can track down the issue and fix it, sadly.
Well I'm a gigantic Legacy of Kain fan (LoK and Soul Reaver remakes when!?) so it wouldn't surprise me if some of that managed to seep out of my subconscious and into my work ;)
For act 3, I just hope the size won't increase too much. The current version itself seems small already (great job!).
Keeping the filesize down is one of my top priorities :) All animations are in webm, almost all images in webp and I run the music and sound files through a compressor.
I'm hoping to keep the final build below 2GB - which is still larger than I'd like - as I know a lot of people struggle with slow or unreliable internet or have data caps.
Anyone else catch the HT-95 Levkov from Battlefield 4 in one of the meditation dream sequences for the succubus chick?
i feel like im stupid but how do you unlock jessica's last outfit?
That's the Hallowe'en outfit. You have to purchase and apply all the Hallowe'en decorations (coffin bed, jack o' lantern and witch poster) in your Manor bedroom, then visit the dungeons at night :)
I have a problem with the latest version the heart icon on the top left of the screen that shows all the girls mission isn't there after i finish escaping from up lab. please fix this it really hard to know what to do next
The heart icon is in the top-right, not the top-left, and doesn't appear in the game until you exit the Manor after the events of the Act One finale (which is what I'm assuming you mean by "escaping from lab").

They're specifically designed to make downloading apps outside their store as impossible as they can. If you want to use your phone primarily as a gaming platform - or want to bypass region locks, install adult games or get sneaky access to closed betas - then you need to buy Android.
There's a reason why nobody (to my knowledge) makes iOS ports of Ren'py games ;P
You would be correct in that Apple actively hobbles their users from partaking of the Ren'py gaming kingdom, or any other games outside of their curated selections.
Android and other "off brand" is just more friendly towards modding and gaming.
They're super jealous of their digital ecosystem, for sure. I have to wonder if that will change, with recent litigation and a decreasing market share... I certainly hope so! Closed systems stagnate growth, and more choice/freedom is always better :)
Damn... You just make me feel that "change to iPhone" is stupid. Thanks for your reply.
Haha, not "stupid" - get whatever phone you like best and which best suits your lifestyle! No judgement here. Just, as with everything else, make sure you do your research and make an informed choice :)
👍
Cant wait for act 2
don't you mean act 3?
Oh woops, yeah 3
Hello I love your game I reached the end to the available content long ago... But can't find the 2 fish girls..i go to nexus put the "whistle" key but it just throws me out also can't find the 2nd girl
You need the endless air power, and you need to go to the lake in the mountains.
Have both powers and also have the tunnel open..i think that's not the correct answer to my question
you must go to explore in the moutains and then you put directions until you found the other girl
Have you gone to the Marina and clicked on "Think about the fishgirls"? You have to do that to trigger the questline, which allows you to find the first fish girl by whistling in the Nexus.
The second fish girl is in the Mountains. Click on "Explore" and either keep exploring until you find her (it'll happen automatically if you haven't found her yet) or else click on "remember" to get a list of directions to all the places you've been. You're looking for the "lake monster".
As usual perfect answer....without saying all... your game rocks
I want to play this game but i cant start it. It just crash for a few sec when i press start. What do i do to fix this
try to install whit the itch io app if you are in pc
im on android
Unfortunately Android and Ren'py don't always play together. It could be that you have either a very old phone or an extremely new one (some models running Android 11+ don't work), or it could be that you don't have enough free space, or it could simply be that your download was corrupted by a micro-outage in your internet or something similar.
Try:
1. Completely powering down your phone then turning it on again (I know, it's a solution so old it's a joke, but it genuinely fixes 90% of reported issues)
2. Erase the game (backup your saves if you have any), download the APK again and install it. Don't use the previous APK you downloaded!
If the above doesn't work then it's almost certainly an issue with your phone model and Android version and the only thing to do is to wait for Ren'py to be updated.
Sorry! Wish I could be more help.
thank you for answering. My device is only 4gb ram. I also tried what you recommended to me but it still crashes. Its a shame that i dont get to play this rn but still thank you
4gb ram is enough. I have 4gb ram to but rarely have crashed. It could be something else.
I wonder whats problem
I am missing Jessica's fourth outfit. How do I get it?
That would be her yoga outfit. Just visit the Manor living room any Saturday morning (provided Jessica isn't heavily pregnant) :)
I can't use a nexus key, i am playing on android. Someone know how i can fix it?
What exactly is the problem you're having? You don't get the "Use a Key" option? Or it doesn't work when you click it? Or the keyboard doesn't work? Or something else?
The use a key option doesn't appear for me
Have you played through the eldritch questline? If not then that is what you need to do. If so then I have no idea.
Hi, love your work, it's been great playing so far! I have a couple of questions if you don't mind: will you advance upon the kunoichis living near you Grandpa's house? Cuz you don't get to do much with the head kunochi :( also I'll understand if you don't wanna say but, is there a rough estimate when the whole game will be completed? Maybe in another year? Regardless, amazing work so far!
I'm glad you're enjoying the game so far, and thanks for the kind words! :)
1. There will be a lot more kunoichi content, including more naughtiness with Sawano (the "head kunoichi")
2. I'm hoping to have CK completed within one or two years at the most, at which point I will start prototyping the next game whilst simultaneously running polish passes over CK (fixing, tweaking, adding new events, etc.)
Hope that answers your questions, but if there's anything else you'd like to ask, feel free!
For starters, mad respect for spending the time and energy to communicate with all the ppl on this site, I've seen you reply to so many of the comments.
And thanks so much for letting me know there is going to be more kunoichi content. My personal favorite is chiyomi x) she reminds me of shenhe from genshin impact
This game is a ton of fun so far (just past the first major event) and now that things have opened up some more, I'm wondering if there are any missable events or character cards.
Normally wouldn't worry too much but this game is deeper than I thought it would be and my completionist anxiety is flaring up. I abuse all the slave slots already, but knowing would definitely help, thanks!
So far the game only has 2 acts (or rather, a prologue and the first act given the length and depth of act 1) since you're in act 2 you can't lock yourself out of content by progressing too far, only by making certain choices can you miss few scenes and dialogue (or rather, choose certain scenes over others).
None of the character cards can be missed, only side characters (who don't have one) can potentially be missed, usually the ones found through "explore"
Kind of a copypaste of a comment under a comment but I ended up writing more than expected so worth posting as a full one I think.
Also could patches be released instead of full new versions? the full download can be somewhat heavy but it might require a lot lf work to make separate patches toupgrade from the latest version to the new release.
anyways here's my constructive feedback
I wish we had more smaller and medium breasts among the main cast (Lily, Gwen etc.... are great and proportionate but definitely big) I think Lyx could use a reduction and Chloes size seems inconsistent, she's amazing in the bath tub scene but looks more like Jessica in the toilet doggystyle one, I'd especially like to have a more mature character more subtle proportions (basically the opposite of Pixie), pure elegance.
Dialogue options where your character doesn't react so turned on around Madison and such but acts more aroused around girls like Kana or Qarinah (whom the main character almost sounds to be fucking out of pity, loneliness or emotional attraction without any physical interest) if you've chosen to avoid the scenes with the thicker Milfs would be appreciated.
Thanks for your feedback - it's always useful to recieve!
Patches are already available if you use PC, Mac or Linux - just use the Itch app! :) Unfortunately, Android patches are impossible despite the community's best efforts to make them work.
Nobody is ever going to be 100% happy with the proportions of all the girls, and trying to please all of the people all of the time just leads to madness. All the girl's breasts are consistently sized, but obviously different positions will stretch or compact them in different ways.
The branching and nesting of if/else statements required to check who you've slept with and adjust the dialogue based on those variables plus who you're talking to would also lead to madness. Instead, what I have tried to do - and will expand upon during the final polish phase of the game - is to give a dialogue option for players to choose how they react during initial meetings (Madison already has this).
As a solo dev on a weekly schedule I have to be careful to the point of obsession on what I add to the game - a few minutes here, a few there, and suddenly there's no time in the week for the main update content. Thus, sadly, certain corners have to be cut.
Hope that answers your questions/concerns - if not to your satisfaction, then at least so you can understand why things are the way they are :)
Corners cut are the Typo Demon's lube.
Felt the need to update;
I've progressed further into the game and unlocked the Demesnes, Morgana's servants and ownership of the College among other things.
I gotta say this has generously brought me the diversity I was lacking. The tournament practice in Asterias demesne for example, all 3 (technically 4) girls were different and appealed to one part of me or another, personally I prefer Zoe, it's cute how she stays around to help with the trainings, but all of them were great (Alexasteponme).
I also liked how Veronica and Madisons questline ended up, sure Madison is still around despite being constantly rejected but the changes that occurred in dialogue and the aftermath of Madison becoming her slave are fantastic.
Another thing that surprised me was how in-depth the childrens feature was despite being an Alpha, it gives more insight into the characters and it's great to see the motherly side of some girls.
Taking all of this into consideration, I believe you should try to rework act 1 before getting too far into the final phases of development, it's the first impressions and as it currently stands it fails at giving a proper look into what to expect from the game.
Also gib moar Jackie, she deserves to have as much fun as Jackie? with enough trust.
PD: Gran juego bro
I'm glad you're enjoying things more as they open up :) This is my first game, so a lot of the Prologue/Act One was me figuring out the SDK and modelling software, trying out ideas and seeing what worked and what didn't.
Once the game is in a beta state I'll be going back over the whole thing to polish, refine, add more events and generally bring the whole thing up to par. I'm expecting that to take a few months :P
Much more Jackie (plus Jackie?) to come in Act Three! Revelations abound!
Anyone know what nexus keyword you need to teleport to the dojo
Think about gramps, is the one you're looking for
Thanks
Currently those only change the dialogue during certain instances, however in act 3 I'm fairly certain that choice will have a much greater impact.
The android download is a Zip file?
just use zarchiver and delet the .zip
Appreciate it!
Yeah, it's just something Itch's uploader does to the file sometimes for no discernible reason. As Amr said, you can use zarchiver or any other unzipper of your choice to open the file and get the apk. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Ah ok.
when the game tries to tell you that twenty five is funnier than twenty four...
anyways just played the game and it's been an engaging experience, I like it!
Glad you're enjoying it! :)
I've got another couple of questions.
1st: The event with the burning house, where I can save Samantha, is repeatable. Is there a certain reason for this? (I know there's something to be found on the first floor, too.)
2nd: After saving Samantha, where and under which conditions do I meet Jackie?
Edit: I noticed there's something going on with the first floor. BUT: It's absolutely annoying to see the character say "Maybe I should check the first floor again" after saving Samantha, only to find one of the same three clues once again. It's confusing and frustrating. Why isn't this explained better, to let the player know they're done searching?
Try advancing Roxy's storyline a bit and then exploring the first floor, after witch you should be able to meet Jackie after going back to the apartment a few times
Thanks. I haven't even started her content, so I'll do this next.
This game is amazing congratulations on making a work of art its pulled me in and i just cant get enough i myself never could have a son and the parent system is awsome not to mention the othe slice of life effects the charachter development and the many fantastic fantasy style naughty times are perfect.
Thanks for the kind words! I appreciate it, and I'm glad you're enjoying CK - especially the slice of life and parent stuff :) I hope you continue to enjoy everything I have planned for the future!
You are an animal keep up the fantastic work!!!
Rawr!
Hi, I can not conftont two other feys with evidence after one of the events ( this with morgana, i dont want to spoil anything). First one works very well but the last two dont even if I choose right evidence. Any help please?
After you confront the first person successfully, it will update their statement. That statement now conflicts with someone else's statement. Confront the next person with the updated statement. And so on :)
Yeah i really would like to but something just simply doesnt work
After Ive confront 1st person it just doesnt work with rest
Warning spoilers ahead
Have you talked to Dhena to unlock Ami's room? If so have you reported back to Morgana? if so have you confronted Dhena about Ami's book? If so have you confronted Erica about Emmet? If you've done all that then confront ard, and then Hannah. You will also have to talk to ami a few times can't remember when.
Why is it not possible to see all the scenes in the gallery?
There are some scenes i would like to see again but i don't remember how to get them again and i can't find them in the gallery :(
Sometimes the gallery doesn't unlock the scene you already saw. Load into your game and open your laptop in the manor and use cheat to unlock the gallery. It will unlock all scenes in the gallery though.
I just go back and the game into a new slot whenever I'm about to enter a scene.
Gallery is meant to have the scenes that are not repeatable.
Scenes that can be replayed ingame over and over won't appear there (unless Arc just feels like adding them)
I wouldn't mind if Arc decides (if he has the time) to do it, it would be a nice update i think
It'll be done during the final "polish pass" phase of the game, when everything is mostly complete :)
How to move old save from old version to a new version?
On android, install the app on top of the old one as an update, never uninstall.
On computer (Windows/Mac/Linux) saves should move automatically.
Also the itch.io launcher is recommended
okey thanks
Any idea how to get access to the nexus?
Follow the hints from the Fey quest line. You should eventually get access to it from Morgan's home
You need to progress with Pixie until you get visited by some of the fey council girls.
After that you should get an invitation and you can access the nexus through Morgana's place.
Later, if you progress the eldritch side of the main story, you'll get one in the manor.
i just now started playing the game but i can only slee and do nothing, and i already found out about chastity's past but idk what do to from there
You are still in the first act of the story, the content that's being talked about is not available to you yet.
But bartenders tend to hear a lot of stuff, tried asking her?
Something to note, act 1 is relatively linear.
Act 2? Not that much.
So so far I've been playing this game for about 3 weeks now. This is my second time playing a visual novel type game, and my first time playing an NSFW game of any kind as well, and damn! Even with no prior experience I didn't have much expectations going into this. I mean it's a hentai game, I thought, the game will probably have no substance other than sex, but boy was I wrong.
I seriously was not expecting for me to care about characters or story. Like there's some legit sad and happy moments in this game that make me forget I'm even playing a hentai game. Over all I love the game and it's characters. Although I'm not into the really exaggerated proportions of some of the girls, (I'm mostly a moderate size and long hair kind of person) there's still a lot to like here and in the multiple girls. 10/10 experience.
Side note: Veronica outside of the college does something to me, and I blame it on the stocking/tights.
Hey, thanks for the kind words! I'm glad you're enjoying the it, and flattered that CK could be your first experience with an adult game! :) I hope you continue to enjoy everything that I have planned for the future!
Couldn't have said it better, the writing is engaging, the scenes are great and there's enough freedom in the gameplay to make it, well, a game but then you stumble upon important characters like Jessica or Madison and you gotta seduce them for progress but damn I really cannot see that as attractive.
I wish we had more smaller and medium breasts among the main cast (Lily, Gwen etc.... are great and proportionate but definitely big) I think Lyx could use a reduction and Chloes size seems inconsistent, she's amazing in the bath tub scene but looks more like Jessica in the toilet doggystyle one.
Dialogue options where your character doesn't react so turned on around Madison and such but acts more aroused around girls like Kana or Qarinah (whom the character almost sounds to be fucking out of pity or emotional attraction without any physical interest) if you've chosen to avoid the scenes with Milfs would be appreciated.
can someone tell me where the fish girls are?
One is in the nexus when you use the whistle key, and the other is found by exploring in the mountains
Hello Arc, it is I again, the guy who reviews games (well this one specifically) despite having no idea how to do so. Anyways with that out of the way let me add a bit to my previous review. A part 2 if you would.
Now first things first I played through the game again, chose different choices... A few you have to be absolutely heartless to make. And well I found the ONLY and I mean O.N.L.Y thing you can nitpick this game for, and that is the choices don't seem to matter all that much. A few dialogue changes here and there but that's it.
(Spoiler alert btw)
Now obviously some choices do matter, those being the choices with Morgana's staff (And the other girls to can invite to the manor). But I found most dialogue choices don't actually impact the game all that much. Or at least not yet. I have a sneaking suspicion I will eat my words when act 3 comes rolling around.
But damn 50,000 crystals? It's almost worth it... Almost.
Anyways on to more pleasant matters, I recently bought some headphones, this way I can enjoy the music of this game worry free... Only the music... Nothing else... Okay maybe a little more than the music but nonetheless I only have one thing to say. I play this game to busy a nut, not a move okay? So chill with the bangers a lil. (Fr the music is good.)
Oh and Emma sounds absolutely amazing.
Now for this next part I'm not sure if I should congratulate you, or send you to therapy. Quarinah. Qarninah? Qaraniah? Dammit gimme a sec... Qarinah. Yeah Qarinah how do you even pronounce that...? Oh. Right. Anyways, once again I must remind you, I am here to bust a nut, not cry myself to sleep okay? And Luna? What's up with all that? Are you trying to give me depression!?
Ahem. Moving on. Something I didn't quite give enough attention to in my last review. World building.
This I must congratulate you on. I mean come on it's all so well done to the point I can't talk about any single thing without bringing up everything else. The nexus, the fey, the eldritch, the numbers, the org, GRAMPS, it's all connected! Not to mention the dreams, or the organization, or the summoner who isn't fey and most likely isn't eldritch. It's all so much, and so well done. So for this I congratulate you.
Seriously you have a once in a generation talent for world building. It's incredible.
So dear Arc, I thank you for bringing this wonderful masterpiece into fruition. Oh but if you lewd any of the lolis I will show no mercy. Anyways toodles! (But seriously good job 👍)
Edit/sidenote; I wish I could support the Patreon, but due to personal reasons I simply cannot. But nevertheless you have and a fan of me for life! And in due time I shall show my appreciation! Until next time then Arc. Cheers!
Hey, thanks for the Part 2 in-depth review! :) It's always valuable to get detailed feedback, so I appreciate it!
The choices not having consequences (yet) is unfortunately a sacrifice I had to make as a solo dev - to make a truly branching storyline would expand the scope of the game to the point where it'd take ten years to finish and each update would only contain about three seconds of content for individual players. I agree, though; it'd be nice if they had more impact! That being said, your choices will have much more of an impact in Act Three. Better get those hearts up to four! You have been warned ;)
Qarinah and Luna... well hey, just be glad that I didn't go with my original plan of having Jessica be evil and impale Emma through the chest right in front of your eyes! So much blood. I have the renders. They upset me, so the story was changed ;P
World-building... aw, shucks. I'm just a novice, but I try to learn and do a little better every day. Emphasis on "try" ;)
The kiddos (including Alice) will not ever be lewdable. They are innocent little treasures and their smiles must be protected. Although there will likely be an adult Alice in CK3. Time jumps, y'know.
Don't worry about the Patreon :) Honestly, so long as people play the game and enjoy it, that's enough for me! This is my first game, and the outpouring of support has been tears-to-the-eyes humbling and amazing. I honestly can't thank everyone enough for all the kindness and support (emotional and financial) they've shown.
You all rock.
You were... Emma... Aunt jessica... You... Definitely need therapy. But damn what a twist that would have been. Well now that I think about it, Aunt Jess hasn't been directly told not to hunt fey...
After the Corrupted Kingdom ends and is polished, do you want to make a cut content where you include/compare and make a short story of how you actually planned stuff to be. I wanna know why Jessica become that evil and how dark the story should actually go.
How do I fix gwen after damaging her (not a huge fan of the constant 'interventiins')? If not possible then damn, I feel bad for this fictional gal
Gwen has four Yandere "stages" - None, Minor, Moderate and Major. Whenever you do naughty things with her, her "Yandere level" decreases and whenever you go a day without doing any naughty things it increases slightly. Realistically you only have to be naughty with her once a week to keep her at her current level.
The "smelling you" and "knife at night" events will only occur once for each time she enters that stage. The texts cap out at ten for each stage and you can also talk to her in her room to tell her to stop texting you.
There's no way to remove the "Damaged" Quirk once it's activated, but getting her back down to "None" on the Yandere stages removes all her Yandere events.
You can also simply turn off all the Yandere content in Preferences :)
Oh neat, thanks :)
1. I brought the two fish girls together but it keeps telling me they need more time. How long do I have to wait?
2. How do I deal with Council Caretaker?
1. Arc's gonna have to tally another point for me...
On 0.16.2 you get nothing, there is no more content with them.
Next update will have a little bit of content, but the update is smaller overall since Arc had some IRL issues to deal with.
2. There's no content with her.
Turns out people just forget she even exists, so Arc decided to postpone her content into act 3 so we can get there faster.
In act 3 she might have a higher degree of relevance in terms of story.
What's the deal with those yellow hearts? Do they lock things like "adultress" for Jessica? Are they limited to the Patreon version?
i think that those are blocked until a future update (probably act 3)
Nah, there's no paywalled content around these parts.
Supporters just get the game 3 days earlier.
And yeah, it's an act 3 thing.
Same with the last two stat levels.
Good to know. And what about the personalities (?) that are greyed out on the character cards? Are these also Act 3, or can I already unlock them?
I tried looking for a Wiki for guidance, but the one I found was very outdated.
Yeah, TBH none of us can be arsed to actually work on it.
If you're playing on a current version, all the ones you see are the ones you can unlock.
Back in the day the cards had more of these quirks, but there wasn't really any way to tell which ones are in the game or not.
They're pretty much achievements at this point, plan is to have them gatekeep content.
Which is why I say, don't feel pressured to unlock them all, you probably don't want all of them.
I don't really want Gwen's "Damaged" for example.
I totally understand, it's a lot of work.
I deactivated the Yandere stuff for Gwen, since I'm absolutely not into that. I'm mostly interested into the one for Jessica, since I really like her. Pixie could be interesting, too.
All in all, the game is a lot of fun so far. Not just simple "bla bla bla, okay let's bang", but a good amount of dialogue with characters that often are really likeable.
Pixie's "cocksleeve" you get by banging her in her normal size.
Jessica's "auntie" is obvious and "adultress" is part of her story, to be precise, her 4th heart event.
Provided you know what adultery means you have to pick the right option.
