Is my safe bugged if i didn't meditate in the lake with qarinah? Because it says on thee heart card that I should meditate and I can't go to the lake after the 0.18 updates
There's no bug and no soft locks. The 0.18 updates don't touch anything in Act Two - everything from 0.17.8 onwards is Act Three content.
So if you're still in Act Two, then you can continue the questline as written... however, if you moved to Act Three then yes, you can't meditate or pursue any of those heart hints anymore, which you're repeatedly warned about.
Is dom'ing Lilly the only route for her? Or a dominating MC the core of the game? Like, I do get the 'Control' power and all, but I figured with the whole "choose how you want your MC to be" it didn't automatically mean I had to be the dominant in personality or sexual acts with every woman; just that it could be used to open up different possibilities and such for the story.
It's a mind-control game - a dominant main character is not only expected, but desired. After all, the point of mind control is that it's the epitome of a power fantasy. Putting the MC into submissive positions (physically or socially) would disappoint or outright anger the vast majority of players.
That being said, the main character isn't overbearing or dominant with everyone - he is generally sweet to Alice and any kids you have, and tends not to throw his weight around unless the situation requires it. He's dominant, but that's not his goal - merely a necessary (and somewhat ingrained) attitude in pursuit of his actual target.
But at the end of the day, yes. It's a mind control game. He's going to be in charge ;)
Yeah, that whole page needs a complete UI pass. I didn't have time to do it "properly" before it was released, but it will get a rework/tweaking fairly soon :)
I am in a mood right now. I tried to make a discord account to look at the roadmap, but nope. Phone verification won't work, telling me an ultra rare error occurred. I hate Discord. I would like to know where you're taking the game (if that's what you do in the roadmap).
Does anybody know how to invade the park I tried everything I can think of but it still doesn't let me invade it and the game doesn't let me invade anything
Now that you guys bring it up, it is a little weird UI-wise. The top bar can still be used for the top elements, but the bottom is only used for dialogue.
Aren't those bars there to make the stuff easier to read?
Yo i love kana man, i mean i just feel bad that her mother really burden her that much and even ignored or not recognized her as her own daughter, when her mother told the mc to choose kana or her mother, i prefer kana rather than her mother just to let her mother gets jealous.
The storyline is good like you can choose for the mc to be what kind of person he is, ofcourse that if they really like to hurt the feeling of the mc or the person that mc loves, ill treat them bad in every response unless if i cant go further in the story then i would just ok here you go.
This is one from some games i played that i can feel what the mc feel and its really making me kinda serious enough to play it. Thank you for the game tho, and the game updates that were delivered everyweek are making me not getting bored to play this game to try the new content. Keep up the very good work.
Hey, thanks for the kind words and I'm glad you're enjoying the game! :)
Kana has certainly been through a lot, that's for sure. I'm not sure that her mother will ever truly accept her, but at least she's found a true family with MC and the others!
So I’ve seen this game and added it to one of my lists to play later and even installed it a couple of times but never ended up unzipping it and I have to say that was the biggest mistake of this gaming year other than fumbling the M2 bag in rust to a bow kid but that’s not important here, I have to say that this was a hidden gem under my nose that my sniffer just couldn’t sniff out how good this game would end up being, I ask of you to never abandon this work of art and finish it to the end.
Aww, thanks, I really appreciate that! :) It's always really nice to hear that people are enjoying my game, and I hope you continue to enjoy what I have planned for the future!
And have no fear, this game will be finished come hell or high water! After all, I already have the two sequels drafted out... ;)
The titles will eventually be "swappable", based on Quirks you've unlocked and various decisions you make throughout the story. One of the options will be "no title" which will allow you to selectively turn off titles for each character if you like :)
Two methods: either you do exactly what you did the first time you installed the game (download, extract to fresh folder, and play) or else you can use the Itch launcher to automatically patch the game when a new update is released each week :)
Be aware that the Itch launcher patch might delete your manual saves (although it leaves your auto-saves alone for some reason) so to be safe either use the first method or backup your saves before patching.
Seems like your device doesn't want to play movie files... this could be for three reasons:
1. You're on Android and your OS version doesn't support the webm movie files. This is either fixable with updates or else your device is just incompatible with Ren'py, sadly. If it's the latter, you can use the JoiPlay app and the WIN version of the game instead.
2. You're on a PC and your drivers are out of date or have become mildly corrupted. Try powering down your device (not restarting - a full power down) and turning it back on again and, if that doesn't work, update your graphic drivers.
3. This is the bizarre one. Weirdly, this sometimes seems to be a sound issue. Make sure you have headphones or speakers plugged in or - if you already do - try unplugging your headphones. I have no idea why this works, but it does.
Thanks! I must admit last week royally kicked my ass (8am to 10pm every day for seven days, no break for lunch) to get everything back up and running, but from this point on it should be much more simple :)
So how are you supposed to get better in combat in act 3? I feel after first 2 bosses, I can't keep up with with any other ones. I get out damaged and defending is only blocking 1 damage. Is there way increase my skills or something im missing?
Everyone else has given great answers, but just to summarise:
1. "Look for trouble" in conquered territories to fight Goons which will level you up and give you the opportunity to learn skills (see #2)
2. Learn new skills! Put a girl in the frontline and MC in the support position and then use the girl's unique skills. MC has a random chance to learn that skill every time the girl uses it.
3. Pay attention to the "Scout" text and listen to Jessica's advice! Some enemies are weak to physical damage, others to seduction, and some require a more defensive playstyle. Jessica will give you hints about all of this.
4. Remember that all enemy skills can be negated or countered. Noelle about to throw an Impale your way? Block it! No damage = no chance to kill.
5. Make food! You start out with a recipe for HP-restoring food and you can get a WP-restoring recipe from Hillside Development. Each one restores 50% of your maximum, so level up and make use of the percentage-based healing!
6. Don't be afraid to switch someone else in as a frontline fighter. MC has the greatest potential and highest utility, but sometimes a different character is better as a frontline fighter in specific battles.
7. Pay attention to the girls' support abilities! Going up against a strong physical fighter? Bring a girl that buffs your DEF. Going up against a Temptress with high WP? Switch out the support girl with the lust-based damage skill. And so on.
Umm, Am I in trouble in Act 3 combat-wise if I didn't buy the Dungeon upgrade in Act 2? I had no idea I needed it to recruit girls. I am sad that I can't recruit Noelle :(
Good afternoon, first I want to say thank you for such a fun and interesting game and thank you for not having a paywall to play :) Also thank you for the weekly updates some are large and some are smaller but it shows that the game is constantly worked on and cared for.
Lastly I was wondering are there any cat girls in this game and if not could we add one? I am willing to donate/support this endeavor if that would help. I love the mind control/corruption mechanic my only small sadness is that we cannot mind blast anyone we want into our little sex zombies but maybe when the game is finished it can be like ravager with power fantasy mode :p no rush!
You're very welcome, and thank you for the kind words! :)
No cat girl in the game right now, but once Act Three progresses to the point where you're fighting Fey creatures, who knows? Maybe!
Financial support always helps, of course, but I never hold characters hostage until people pay me. If you can afford it, and you think CK is worth it, then I am humbled and flattered to receive support. But if not, I'll still try to fit in as many requests as I possibly can anyway :)
The game's story-focus means that just Shatter-blasting everyone you meet will never be possible, unfortunately. However, all one-shot girls (plus all Boss Girls) can be Shatter-blasted, as can numerous Side Girls and even one of the Main Girls if you choose to go that route.
I just started tha game and didn't really see any h-scene yet, but the quality of animated scenes wasn't as good as on the screens. (The animation is sick, by "quality" i mean resolution). So, if that's a thing only in the start/only in non-h-scenes or is it a thing in general? Anyways, wanted to thank a dev of the game. I'm only at the beginning of it but so far so good.
(Sorry for my English, if it's painful to read, I'm not a fluent speaker)
The resolution of the screenshots is the same as the in-game resolution (1280x720p) but I did update my lighting technique as I continued to develop the game, so later scenes certainly look better (I hope).
I'll be updating the older graphics to my current style once the game goes into beta.
I'm a solo dev and this is my first project, so I'm learning as I go. Please be patient with me ;) And I hope you enjoy the game!
So this is probably gonna sound really stupid, but I blame the developer for making me get invested in the story and characters lol.
Do you have any idea when we may see the ability to go to the Outskirts in Act III? Because I have four kids (in-game obv lol) and the idea of them being trapped away from me makes me a bit anxious lol. Like I said, I know it's dumb and I should prolly just go touch grass or something, but would you at least be able to tell me if they're ok? Like, I'll be real, it's kinda gonna fuck me up if I go over there (when we eventually can) and find out somebody killed them or something.
No timetable on getting out to the farm (I don't want to set a deadline and then disappoint people by missing it), but I know that the fate of the kids is something that a lot of people are worried about, so it's definitely a priority.
I'm sure they're fine, though... out there in the outskirts... isolated and surrounded by the mortal enemy of their father... with only Annie and Kana to protect them... yeah, they'll be fiiiiiine ;)
Narrows eyes Don't you do this to me, Ricky Bobby! Lol, I gotta give you credit dude, you've done a really good job at giving us valid reasons to dislike the antagonists. I haven't held this much hate for an antagonist (in this case, Whoregana) since Geoffrey from Game of Thrones, whereas sometimes in other games/media it feels like we're supposed to hate the antagonist just because they're the antagonist. This is easily my favorite game in its category I've played, and I thank you not only for the work you've done but also for not being greedy. I understand that you gotta make money to be able to dedicate time to making this game, but I've seen other people that monetize their games so aggressively that it feels like 80% of the game is locked behind a paywall. The way you've done it makes me want to support you financially, as opposed to feeling like I have to if I ever want to get to truly experience the game. Thanks for the experience, thanks for not scoffing at people who might not be able to make a monthly financial commitment like that, and I wish you nothing but good fortune and success moving forward ^-^
So, if you're like me and you're used to the game mechanics of "Visit this NPC to raise this stat" or "Go to this place and perform this activity to raise this other stat" then the system can seem kinda weird, but as long as you play through the main story and do the girl's stories, you'll find your stats increasing as per story interactions either directly (as in "task completed, stat point gained) or by unlocking said interaction/location. So just go through the story normally and you'll find these opportunities (some of them, like Charisma and Physical, are *technically* available from the start or near the start, at least for the first few advancements). Looking at the stat scroll, they have little hints about how to get you started. I'll try to give non-spoiler info on it here for you :)
Charisma: Go to the bar in the morning and look around to find books, eventually you'll need to perform tasks for an NPC to raise it further (this is obvious and hard to miss so long as you keep visiting the bar in the morning).
Martial: Eventually you unlock the ability to visit a certain family member of yours, that'll deal with your Martial path pretty much in its entirety.
Insight: Once you unlock the ability to use the train station, use it and go to the Lake.
Magical: Go to the outskirts and start exploring, eventually you'll find somebody interesting...
Physical: Also outskirts, I hear working on a farm is pretty hard work. Once that's that, it might help to find somebody really strong to help you (requires advancement of story, it becomes pretty obvious once the character opens up).
In terms of recipes, unless I missed something, you only actually get ONE recipe in Act 3 just naturally (it depends on the meal you picked on Day 1, idk if the effect varies per food but I did salad and it's a pretty darn good recipe), but by exploring a certain district I know of at least one other recipe you can discover. Before Act III, I don't even think recipes are a thing.
Haha, thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying the game, and I hope you continue to enjoy what I have planned for the future!
As for your questions, Tanis covered it pretty thoroughly :) Just to add to the "battle stats" part of the question, though:
When you level up, only your HP and WP increase. To improve your other stats you will need to explore, construction certain buildings, do certain events, etc. Right now you can only increase your PHY and ARC by one extra point, both in The Glades, but many more opportunities will be added in future updates.
Same for recipes - they'll be found by exploring, through certain battles and story events, and so on. Right now there's only two, but more to come
Thanks to you both! Understanding the game just tends to make them all the better! Keep up the amazing work! Obvious boner inducing characters aside, this is one great story!! Serious talent! ^_^!!!!!
You can send any girl you've "tamed" back to the dungeon for some fun, but to the best of my knowledge you can't permanently place them their once recruited. But if you go down to the dungeon and select the "Summon a Girl" option, you'll see all your "tamed" counterparts there.
(I never got very far in the story (never even finished Act 2)).
I'm remembering how much this story hooks me in. Of course, mind control is a kink of mine, so I enjoy seeing everyone's minds being warped towards the MC. The sex for me isn't really that interesting.
I hope Veronica becomes a close sidekick of the main character. I like her intelligence.
I'm glad you're enjoying it, and I hope you get far enough into it to beat Act Two this time around :)
Veronica will be making a return for sure, and slime girls are a possibility but I'm not making any promises. There's already so many girls in the game, especially in Act Three ;P
act three is actually pretty fun even it didn't really have full content like act two. it doesn't matter anyway. the battle system, buildings, character status etc. are truly something i didn't expect in a visual noval based game. it's really amazing. hope to see more in the future and i truly hope this series will never ends.
I'm assuming you mean at the start of Act Two? You can find her in her room in the morning, but you'll need to have found Lyx and learned her name before you can properly unlock Chloe.
(written in google translate) Is it only you who makes all the game? you put out an update per week on average that's a lot of work for one being, if you want to take a break we won't die if you take a break
It doesn't tell you to walk around the flat, it tells you to leave the flat and then return. If that's not working, try talking to Emma in her room at night.
thats the thing i did it 3-10x i left then return then i try talking to emma im not getting anything im stuck n it wont let me do anything else til i do that
Did you try talking to Emma specifically in the EVENING? Those are literally the only two blocks - you must go to another map location and return and you must talk to Emma in the evening.
Other people have answered you, but just so there's an "official" response:
You don't need to do anything to maintain your saves - the game will do that for you automatically no matter which version or method of updating you're using.
Just download the game, extract to a fresh folder if you're on PC or overwrite the APK if you're on Android and play! That's it :)
Nope, but I have completed all the current content in the game and my playtime is at 37 hours, so you've still got a good chunk of content to play with, and the story is phenomenal, so I hope you'll enjoy yourself :)
Yeah there were multiple times during play when I was expecting to get the dreaded message that all players know, "You've completed all available content for this release version!" and it just took SOOOOO long to come up (in a good way) lol. On top of that, I said I've completed all current content, but as I read through peoples comments it seems I actually did miss some things, so it's possibly that if I had hit them all my playtime would've been at 40+ hours; it's a lot of really well done work so far, and I hope you'll enjoy it ^-^
Ami have 3 ears, if u interact with her here. U can see 2 models, 1 staying in place and the other sliding. I can't time it better to get a screenshot of it but here's 3 ears Ami
Going to reply to this one, as following all your threads to their end point is like unravelling string ;)
1. The small portraits are on purpose. They're used to either prevent the paperdoll from obscuring the background or to indicate that the speaker is further away/moving away from MC.
2. The Ami thing should be mostly fixed in the latest version, but there's one or two places I still need to tidy up. It's legacy code that I forgot to remove when I implemented some new systems.
3. The recipe thing was fixed, then I made a small change and that broke it again :P Fixed for the next version now, I pinky-promise!
Finally catching up with your game after a long time with it on my to-play list and I'm really enjoying it so far. Still just getting into it but it's got me hooked for now.
One minor gripe, I really wish there was an opacity slider for the text boxes, the text box blocks portions of a lot of images and constantly having to hide the box to see things really kills the flow of reading the game. Quite a lot of renpy games include that option or have it added by modders so I assume it would be pretty straight forward to implement.
Hey, I purchased the game, and I'm looking to download it but the Android file is a ZIP file not an APK file, so I cannot install it. Would you please help me with this? I'm using the last download link which I think is connected to Android. For your information.
Arc uses a method of uploading the game to itch.io that allows people to use the launcher on Computers to update the game easier.
Problem is that it sometimes decides to put the APK inside a zip file.
If your file manager can extract zip files, you can install it from there.
Otherwise, go to the Patreon or Subscribestar page for the game and use the public download links, they’re the same version than the one posted here on itch.io
As Chris said, it's something that Itch just does sometimes for no reason that I - or anyone else - can discern :P
The APK is there, inside the ZIP file. Your device should come with an app for extracting the APK file, but if not you can download free ones from the Play Store, such as Files by Google ( https://support.google.com/files/answer/9048509?hl=en )

But at the end of the day, yes. It's a mind control game. He's going to be in charge ;)
I don't know if I'm asking for too much. I would like to show the character level on the teaming page....
Yeah, that whole page needs a complete UI pass. I didn't have time to do it "properly" before it was released, but it will get a rework/tweaking fairly soon :)
can i ask how to safe molly and who is that
Molly is a character that appears on Roxy’s storyline.
Near the end of it, you can choose to bring her with you to the manor.
I am in a mood right now. I tried to make a discord account to look at the roadmap, but nope. Phone verification won't work, telling me an ultra rare error occurred. I hate Discord. I would like to know where you're taking the game (if that's what you do in the roadmap).
No, that’s not what the roadmap does.
It’s not really a roadmap, but instead just shows what’s coming up in the next version.
Arc doesn’t reveals his plans too far ahead.
That’s assuming he even plans that far ahead.
Lmao I'm sure they think at least a few minutes ahead, give them some credit.
Sometimes I don't know what I've coded until it's released to the world!
Does anybody know how to invade the park I tried everything I can think of but it still doesn't let me invade it and the game doesn't let me invade anything
Has the park been implemented yet as a combat location?
There’s only 6 locations you can conquer.
Crescent Hills, Hillside Development, Northside, The Glades, Old Town and Riverview Apartments.
I might have the names slightly wrong, I remember the girls’ names more.
Android not working it loads for a lil and close and throws me out
That's happening to I don't know what to do.
I'm just want to know if there's going to be more music in the game just asking.
Possibly, yes. I've been debating purchasing licensed music so that each of the Main Girls gets a "theme" of their own, but we'll see how it goes :)
Is it possible to remove the black borders or at least change the resolution so they're not there?
The top and bottom bars?
Nope, they’re baked in.
For a while Arc made the images and videos with that frame integrated, so he could shove the UI elements and textbox in there.
But now it seems like he’s trying to steer away from it… Which is odd.
Now that you guys bring it up, it is a little weird UI-wise. The top bar can still be used for the top elements, but the bottom is only used for dialogue.
Aren't those bars there to make the stuff easier to read?
They're residual from the old UI system, and will be slowly removed from old renders as time goes on (none of the new renders have them) :)
Yo i love kana man, i mean i just feel bad that her mother really burden her that much and even ignored or not recognized her as her own daughter, when her mother told the mc to choose kana or her mother, i prefer kana rather than her mother just to let her mother gets jealous.

Thank you for the game tho, and the game updates that were delivered everyweek are making me not getting bored to play this game to try the new content. Keep up the very good work.
Hey, thanks for the kind words and I'm glad you're enjoying the game! :)
Kana has certainly been through a lot, that's for sure. I'm not sure that her mother will ever truly accept her, but at least she's found a true family with MC and the others!
Is it possible to use a save from a previous version?
Indeed, just copy the saves folder from your old game version folder and paste it into the new game version folder.
Path example from the game folder in pc => corrupted-kingdoms-win-linux\CorruptedKingdoms-0.18.9-pc\game\saves
For android you need some application that can show and open folder inside the game folder which is located inside android\data
All saves are automatically transferred to each new update - just download, extract (or patch if you're using the Itch launcher) and play! :)
So I’ve seen this game and added it to one of my lists to play later and even installed it a couple of times but never ended up unzipping it and I have to say that was the biggest mistake of this gaming year other than fumbling the M2 bag in rust to a bow kid but that’s not important here, I have to say that this was a hidden gem under my nose that my sniffer just couldn’t sniff out how good this game would end up being, I ask of you to never abandon this work of art and finish it to the end.
Aww, thanks, I really appreciate that! :) It's always really nice to hear that people are enjoying my game, and I hope you continue to enjoy what I have planned for the future!
And have no fear, this game will be finished come hell or high water! After all, I already have the two sequels drafted out... ;)
Is there a way to turn off the new titles that have been added? I find them distracting..
Nope.
That might be a “not yet” tho.
A handful of people have asked the same thing, so it could happen someday. Can’t say it’ll happen soon.
The titles will eventually be "swappable", based on Quirks you've unlocked and various decisions you make throughout the story. One of the options will be "no title" which will allow you to selectively turn off titles for each character if you like :)
How do I update the game? This is the first game I've played.
Two methods: either you do exactly what you did the first time you installed the game (download, extract to fresh folder, and play) or else you can use the Itch launcher to automatically patch the game when a new update is released each week :)
Be aware that the Itch launcher patch might delete your manual saves (although it leaves your auto-saves alone for some reason) so to be safe either use the first method or backup your saves before patching.
I have been having this issue where i cant really see the sex scenes, its just like a black screen any ideas on how to fix?
Seems like your device doesn't want to play movie files... this could be for three reasons:
1. You're on Android and your OS version doesn't support the webm movie files. This is either fixable with updates or else your device is just incompatible with Ren'py, sadly. If it's the latter, you can use the JoiPlay app and the WIN version of the game instead.
2. You're on a PC and your drivers are out of date or have become mildly corrupted. Try powering down your device (not restarting - a full power down) and turning it back on again and, if that doesn't work, update your graphic drivers.
3. This is the bizarre one. Weirdly, this sometimes seems to be a sound issue. Make sure you have headphones or speakers plugged in or - if you already do - try unplugging your headphones. I have no idea why this works, but it does.
Hope that helps! :)
It seems to have worked thank you very much
Sad to hear what happened to the old battle graphic, hopefully the new graphic won't strain your energy too much, always keep up the amazing work 👍
Thanks! I must admit last week royally kicked my ass (8am to 10pm every day for seven days, no break for lunch) to get everything back up and running, but from this point on it should be much more simple :)
So how are you supposed to get better in combat in act 3? I feel after first 2 bosses, I can't keep up with with any other ones. I get out damaged and defending is only blocking 1 damage. Is there way increase my skills or something im missing?
Get their skills, and make healing food. It isn't that hard of a difficulty jump
You can also try damaging the enemy with different attacks, some bosses is weak to physical and some is weak to seductive.
Go scouting on conquered territories and look for trouble. Beating goons grants 2 xp, so you can grind some levels to win harder fights
Everyone else has given great answers, but just to summarise:
1. "Look for trouble" in conquered territories to fight Goons which will level you up and give you the opportunity to learn skills (see #2)
2. Learn new skills! Put a girl in the frontline and MC in the support position and then use the girl's unique skills. MC has a random chance to learn that skill every time the girl uses it.

Hope that helps! You got this! :)
Umm, Am I in trouble in Act 3 combat-wise if I didn't buy the Dungeon upgrade in Act 2? I had no idea I needed it to recruit girls. I am sad that I can't recruit Noelle :(
Ok, Rather than trying to save-edit the dungeon into the game (which, I admit, I tried, and failed), I'll use a slightly older save.
Yea, we gotta make sure to get everything in act 2, it might be useful later on
You can "officially cheat" it into the game if you didn't get it in Act Two by using the laptop in your bedroom :)
I put it in for just such an eventuality!
Good afternoon, first I want to say thank you for such a fun and interesting game and thank you for not having a paywall to play :) Also thank you for the weekly updates some are large and some are smaller but it shows that the game is constantly worked on and cared for.
Lastly I was wondering are there any cat girls in this game and if not could we add one? I am willing to donate/support this endeavor if that would help. I love the mind control/corruption mechanic my only small sadness is that we cannot mind blast anyone we want into our little sex zombies but maybe when the game is finished it can be like ravager with power fantasy mode :p no rush!
You're very welcome, and thank you for the kind words! :)
No cat girl in the game right now, but once Act Three progresses to the point where you're fighting Fey creatures, who knows? Maybe!
Financial support always helps, of course, but I never hold characters hostage until people pay me. If you can afford it, and you think CK is worth it, then I am humbled and flattered to receive support. But if not, I'll still try to fit in as many requests as I possibly can anyway :)
The game's story-focus means that just Shatter-blasting everyone you meet will never be possible, unfortunately. However, all one-shot girls (plus all Boss Girls) can be Shatter-blasted, as can numerous Side Girls and even one of the Main Girls if you choose to go that route.
I just started tha game and didn't really see any h-scene yet, but the quality of animated scenes wasn't as good as on the screens. (The animation is sick, by "quality" i mean resolution). So, if that's a thing only in the start/only in non-h-scenes or is it a thing in general? Anyways, wanted to thank a dev of the game. I'm only at the beginning of it but so far so good.
(Sorry for my English, if it's painful to read, I'm not a fluent speaker)
The resolution of the screenshots is the same as the in-game resolution (1280x720p) but I did update my lighting technique as I continued to develop the game, so later scenes certainly look better (I hope).
I'll be updating the older graphics to my current style once the game goes into beta.
I'm a solo dev and this is my first project, so I'm learning as I go. Please be patient with me ;) And I hope you enjoy the game!
I don't know why, I'm stuck on the name
You mean actually stuck, as in you can't get past the title screen, or stuck as in you are hyper-focused on the "Corrupted Kingdoms" title? :P
So this is probably gonna sound really stupid, but I blame the developer for making me get invested in the story and characters lol.
Do you have any idea when we may see the ability to go to the Outskirts in Act III? Because I have four kids (in-game obv lol) and the idea of them being trapped away from me makes me a bit anxious lol. Like I said, I know it's dumb and I should prolly just go touch grass or something, but would you at least be able to tell me if they're ok? Like, I'll be real, it's kinda gonna fuck me up if I go over there (when we eventually can) and find out somebody killed them or something.
Well thank you, and... I'm sorry!
No timetable on getting out to the farm (I don't want to set a deadline and then disappoint people by missing it), but I know that the fate of the kids is something that a lot of people are worried about, so it's definitely a priority.
I'm sure they're fine, though... out there in the outskirts... isolated and surrounded by the mortal enemy of their father... with only Annie and Kana to protect them... yeah, they'll be fiiiiiine ;)
Narrows eyes Don't you do this to me, Ricky Bobby! Lol, I gotta give you credit dude, you've done a really good job at giving us valid reasons to dislike the antagonists. I haven't held this much hate for an antagonist (in this case, Whoregana) since Geoffrey from Game of Thrones, whereas sometimes in other games/media it feels like we're supposed to hate the antagonist just because they're the antagonist. This is easily my favorite game in its category I've played, and I thank you not only for the work you've done but also for not being greedy. I understand that you gotta make money to be able to dedicate time to making this game, but I've seen other people that monetize their games so aggressively that it feels like 80% of the game is locked behind a paywall. The way you've done it makes me want to support you financially, as opposed to feeling like I have to if I ever want to get to truly experience the game. Thanks for the experience, thanks for not scoffing at people who might not be able to make a monthly financial commitment like that, and I wish you nothing but good fortune and success moving forward ^-^
Sooo.... I have a question....
(Id love to drool all over this page first, to make it known how amazing I think this game is turning out, but im sure you get that a LOT. 😜😅😁 )
My question is.... I cant find ANYWHERE on how to level up your character, increase his battle stats, or how/where to learn Recipes...
Can anyone advise?? 😅☺️

So, if you're like me and you're used to the game mechanics of "Visit this NPC to raise this stat" or "Go to this place and perform this activity to raise this other stat" then the system can seem kinda weird, but as long as you play through the main story and do the girl's stories, you'll find your stats increasing as per story interactions either directly (as in "task completed, stat point gained) or by unlocking said interaction/location. So just go through the story normally and you'll find these opportunities (some of them, like Charisma and Physical, are *technically* available from the start or near the start, at least for the first few advancements). Looking at the stat scroll, they have little hints about how to get you started. I'll try to give non-spoiler info on it here for you :)
Charisma: Go to the bar in the morning and look around to find books, eventually you'll need to perform tasks for an NPC to raise it further (this is obvious and hard to miss so long as you keep visiting the bar in the morning).
Martial: Eventually you unlock the ability to visit a certain family member of yours, that'll deal with your Martial path pretty much in its entirety.
Insight: Once you unlock the ability to use the train station, use it and go to the Lake.
Magical: Go to the outskirts and start exploring, eventually you'll find somebody interesting...
Physical: Also outskirts, I hear working on a farm is pretty hard work. Once that's that, it might help to find somebody really strong to help you (requires advancement of story, it becomes pretty obvious once the character opens up).
In terms of recipes, unless I missed something, you only actually get ONE recipe in Act 3 just naturally (it depends on the meal you picked on Day 1, idk if the effect varies per food but I did salad and it's a pretty darn good recipe), but by exploring a certain district I know of at least one other recipe you can discover. Before Act III, I don't even think recipes are a thing.
Hope this helps you, friendo! ^-^
Haha, thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying the game, and I hope you continue to enjoy what I have planned for the future!
As for your questions, Tanis covered it pretty thoroughly :) Just to add to the "battle stats" part of the question, though:
When you level up, only your HP and WP increase. To improve your other stats you will need to explore, construction certain buildings, do certain events, etc. Right now you can only increase your PHY and ARC by one extra point, both in The Glades, but many more opportunities will be added in future updates.
Same for recipes - they'll be found by exploring, through certain battles and story events, and so on. Right now there's only two, but more to come
Thanks to you both! Understanding the game just tends to make them all the better!
Keep up the amazing work! Obvious boner inducing characters aside, this is one great story!!
Serious talent! ^_^!!!!!
Can we send boss girl back to the dungeon after we recruit them or is it permanent?
You can send any girl you've "tamed" back to the dungeon for some fun, but to the best of my knowledge you can't permanently place them their once recruited. But if you go down to the dungeon and select the "Summon a Girl" option, you'll see all your "tamed" counterparts there.
What Tanis said :) Once they've joined you, they're with you forever, but you can summon them to the dungeon for some roleplaying fun if you like.
amazing work as always!
(I never got very far in the story (never even finished Act 2)).
I'm remembering how much this story hooks me in. Of course, mind control is a kink of mine, so I enjoy seeing everyone's minds being warped towards the MC. The sex for me isn't really that interesting.
I hope Veronica becomes a close sidekick of the main character. I like her intelligence.
Also, are there slime girls? I like those, too.
I'm glad you're enjoying it, and I hope you get far enough into it to beat Act Two this time around :)
Veronica will be making a return for sure, and slime girls are a possibility but I'm not making any promises. There's already so many girls in the game, especially in Act Three ;P
act three is actually pretty fun even it didn't really have full content like act two. it doesn't matter anyway. the battle system, buildings, character status etc. are truly something i didn't expect in a visual noval based game. it's really amazing. hope to see more in the future and i truly hope this series will never ends.
how can i found chloe
I'm assuming you mean at the start of Act Two? You can find her in her room in the morning, but you'll need to have found Lyx and learned her name before you can properly unlock Chloe.
what do crystal shards do?
currency, like money, you'll use it to buy some story related items
They haven't been added yet - they're not story-critical, and I am but one man, so I am prioritizing other things right now ;P
(written in google translate) Is it only you who makes all the game? you put out an update per week on average that's a lot of work for one being, if you want to take a break we won't die if you take a break
Yes, it's just me :) I usually take a one-week break every two or three months to physically recover. But I love my job so I'm happy to do it!
I think i got a bug it keep telling me walk around the flat there somebody standing outside during the day but nothing happening
It doesn't tell you to walk around the flat, it tells you to leave the flat and then return. If that's not working, try talking to Emma in her room at night.
thats the thing i did it 3-10x i left then return then i try talking to emma im not getting anything im stuck n it wont let me do anything else til i do that
Did you try talking to Emma specifically in the EVENING? Those are literally the only two blocks - you must go to another map location and return and you must talk to Emma in the evening.
Funny enough the new update came out on my birthday!
Happy birthday! :)
Call me curious but what modeling software do you use? they look fantastic but i've always just been a bit curious
Program is called Koikatsu. It’s not quite a 3d engine, but with enough mods the community has managed to make quite a bit.
It’s on Steam as “Koikatsu Party” but you’ll need a good bunch of mods to get some use out of it.
alright, thought about using it for some personal projects
cheers!
most devs also use Chara studio to animate scenes with it (i belive chara comes with the steam download in the game folder)
Hey Idk if it a bug or missing code but i can't make Ramen noodles anymore heck it's not on the list of the foods you can make
Yeah, it was a bug on the previous version, it was supposed to be fixed on the current one.
But somehow it broke again.
Whats the process for updating the game but maintaining saves?
go in the game file and drag your save file to the game file in the new version
Thanks!:)
If you’re on computer, you can use the itch.io launcher to download and update the game.
But if you download the new version and launch it, your saves should move over automatically.
As for phones, download the apk and install as update. Don’t uninstall.
Other people have answered you, but just so there's an "official" response:
You don't need to do anything to maintain your saves - the game will do that for you automatically no matter which version or method of updating you're using.
Just download the game, extract to a fresh folder if you're on PC or overwrite the APK if you're on Android and play! That's it :)
Is this game fully completed yet?
Nope, but I have completed all the current content in the game and my playtime is at 37 hours, so you've still got a good chunk of content to play with, and the story is phenomenal, so I hope you'll enjoy yourself :)
Holy s***, 37 hours....really? I love the long games.
Yeah there were multiple times during play when I was expecting to get the dreaded message that all players know, "You've completed all available content for this release version!" and it just took SOOOOO long to come up (in a good way) lol. On top of that, I said I've completed all current content, but as I read through peoples comments it seems I actually did miss some things, so it's possibly that if I had hit them all my playtime would've been at 40+ hours; it's a lot of really well done work so far, and I hope you'll enjoy it ^-^
In one or two years, maybe.
how do you change jessica clothes
In Act Two you can only change clothes when you're having naughty times. In Act Three, you change girls' clothes at the Wardrobe in your room.
Maybe a bug, but it's a cute one. SHE'S SMALL
alright so these few reply is going to be some of the bugs i found, they're pretty minor so im sure Arc could fix this in the next patch.
Another cute bug, this one with our beloved Pixie and Molly. SHE'S SMALLER THAN BEFORE (i forgot to screenshot the Molly one)
last one i found, ramen recipe not back (for me at least)
Yeah, it was supposed to be fixed this version but somehow Arc managed to break it twice.
Again, not a bug. It’s coded that way.
I suppose Arc might put the characters on “smol mode” when the background image is more important.
Not really 3 ears, but her paperdoll is baked in the background for some reason.
I mean, you might notice that when you talk to Ami, she slides on top of the baked-in copy of herself.
Arc knows about this.
Not a bug, the characters can appear on the side like that to cover less of the screen. Most of the time Arc prefers to use the fullbody paperdolls.
But the main reason behind the text being so far to the right is to show the characters like that.
Ohh alright, that's understandable. Thank you!
Going to reply to this one, as following all your threads to their end point is like unravelling string ;)
1. The small portraits are on purpose. They're used to either prevent the paperdoll from obscuring the background or to indicate that the speaker is further away/moving away from MC.
2. The Ami thing should be mostly fixed in the latest version, but there's one or two places I still need to tidy up. It's legacy code that I forgot to remove when I implemented some new systems.
3. The recipe thing was fixed, then I made a small change and that broke it again :P Fixed for the next version now, I pinky-promise!
Finally catching up with your game after a long time with it on my to-play list and I'm really enjoying it so far. Still just getting into it but it's got me hooked for now.
One minor gripe, I really wish there was an opacity slider for the text boxes, the text box blocks portions of a lot of images and constantly having to hide the box to see things really kills the flow of reading the game. Quite a lot of renpy games include that option or have it added by modders so I assume it would be pretty straight forward to implement.
Not in Act Two, no. Her secret (as well as Sword Girl's) will be uncovered in Act Three, but I haven't coded it in yet :)
Hey, I purchased the game, and I'm looking to download it but the Android file is a ZIP file not an APK file, so I cannot install it. Would you please help me with this? I'm using the last download link which I think is connected to Android. For your information.
Arc uses a method of uploading the game to itch.io that allows people to use the launcher on Computers to update the game easier.
Problem is that it sometimes decides to put the APK inside a zip file. If your file manager can extract zip files, you can install it from there.
Otherwise, go to the Patreon or Subscribestar page for the game and use the public download links, they’re the same version than the one posted here on itch.io
As Chris said, it's something that Itch just does sometimes for no reason that I - or anyone else - can discern :P
The APK is there, inside the ZIP file. Your device should come with an app for extracting the APK file, but if not you can download free ones from the Play Store, such as Files by Google ( https://support.google.com/files/answer/9048509?hl=en )
Hope that helps, and sorry for the inconvenience!

Это очень старое изображение. Эта девушка была прототипом персонажа, который позже стал Каной.
После того, как добавили Кану, загорелую девушку-волка убрали.
Есть небольшой шанс, что персонаж, похожий на нее, может появиться снова. В конце концов, мы встретили не так много людей из ее клана.
