Won't even start on Android download and reinstalled multiple times to see if it was a download issue but won't even start pls fix I really like this game
If it still did not work try using windows version and run it with joiplay on your android, it work for me most of the time when the android just fail me.
Jessica sometimes turm nudes when im going to battle (most of the time when i scouting on morning), is it a bug or feature? Because when i Meet Chastity again, jessica just nude when she describe her combat skill and all the are scared.
Its just hilarious for me That they doing it so early on morning that poor jessica did not even have time to put her clothes on and the way The goon reacting is make it even better 🤣🤣
Ah, one more thing. When we can meet the trader again? Im kinda short on potion for chloe.
Keep it up man, loves your games. Dont push ur self to hard.
Yeah, Jessica takes a long bath on Wednesday mornings.
If you call her, she’ll come to you tits out.
Even has a special dialogue if you manually call her to the living room.
So I’m guessing Arc planned to leave it intentionally.
But people keep reporting it as a bug, maybe it’s not such a good idea.
But yeah, the mental image of an angry woman with big tits scaring away trained soldiers… wow.
At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if Jessica becomes an exhibitionist.
I don’t know if the trader does deliveries… might take a while before we get to the field.
And even then, could she offer work? Not everyone made a “war fund” before moving to act 3.
Ah, maybe i was missed the changelog since i skipped 3-5 update.
yeah its just to good to be a bug.
For the trader, i guess i will reload from near the end of act 2 and buy tons of that potion. Ngl chloe is one of my favorite girl after the quiet one on library
Suggestion: For the War - A Status page where you can see the level, and at the very least equipped skill icons & a stat block. The only way to see what character is what level is to go into combat. If you put it in the prepare for battle block it would make sense and that way you'd know who to level and what skills you could learn at a glance. :)
I agree, and it's something that'll I'll certainly implement at some point. The code is fairly complex, though, and everyone went so long without content that I want to build up a few events and such first before taking the time out to work on UI stuff.
Weekly updates don't leave a lot of wiggle room, sadly! :P
Her and the quiet girl from the library don’t have content, they’re hiding something and it will be revealed during act 3, probably after we take over the college once again.
Idk how this happened but I was in a battle to grind my lvs with the new boss girl as the support and I think this occurs when she use her auto attack cuz it say goons take 0 dmg afterwards
I mean, it’s a VN with pre-rendered graphics.
It’s supposed to be pretty lightweight.
But also, in order to keep the game from getting too large, Arc is using a compressed format for media.
That could make it so some old phones and computers struggle running the game.
But in my old phone, videos would stutter slightly.
Because the webp and webm formats tank the cpu in exchange of filesize.
It normally isn’t an issue on modern machines, but on old ones… yeah.
thank you for getting back to me so quickly and I'm sorry for any trouble this may have caused I really enjoy your game and look forward to see what comes next
So I got a new pc and never transferred any of my old data so therefore I have to restart which I have no problem with, last I played I remember there being a map for the tunnels in Luna's Demesne but I cannot remember how to obtain it can someone please help?
If I had to drink every time someone asks about the quiet girl… I’d have no liver left.
There’s no content with her, and that’s intentional.
She’s hiding something, and it will be revealed somewhere during act 3 provided you got to max autority on act 2.
Normally Android is a bit weird and requires you to have plenty of free space to install stuff.
Also you may want to try going to the playstore and download Split APK Installer (SAI)… sometimes it works, and if it doesn’t it will give you more information as to why it doesn’t.
I've played this game the whole way through, and I loved every second of it. I look forward to Act 3's continuation, especially because I want to take back the farm. The Day Care must be liberated!
The only problem I had was the game refusing to show the quick menu even after I enabled it. It made the grindy bits, like the college lectures and the club dances very grindy.
Hey I haven't been able to to play the game due to it crashing so fast after immediately pressing start or anything. I don't know if it's my phone that's problem but I just wanna know if there's a solution.
That's definitely an issue with your phone. As meme-y as it sounds, have you tried completely powering it down and turning it back on again? It solves 90% of the weird crashing issues people have.
Failing that, it may be a problem of not enough storage, faulty drivers or just that Ren'py hates your phone, sadly :/
I gotten a new phone and downloaded the game to play througj it again. Its been months since ive last touched this game. Its awesome and i remember it being hilarious too. HOWEVER WHAT HAPPENED to the four or five buttons that used to sit at the bottom thatll say like, "menu hide skip back" im on android btw and every game like this have thaf feature, including this game in the past.... what happened? I need those buttons, can someone help?
phenomenal work, i’ve only downloaded it today and finally decided to investing my time into your game, firstly, it’s been lovely seeing the group of characters and more to “come” as i continue through the story, and while it’s currently surface level for now, all the characters have been lovable and moe. can’t wait to continue jumping back into the application.
edit: based creator for consumption of chocomint ice-cream
I seem to be having a bit of trouble constructing the Marina tunnel. I've met the Lady of the Lake and gone to the water world, but I don't seem to be getting a prompt when I visit the marina. Am I missing something? Thank you.
You need to convince the owner to sell.
And the owner is Madison, get her to 4 hearts.
You’ve already met both fish girls so once you buy the Marina and build the tunnel you’ll find the option when vising the place.
It’ll tell you what to do.
Yes, I own the marina and have Madison at 4 hearts.
I actually purchased the marina before meeting the fish girls since I blitzed Madison and Veronica's storyline, so I'm not sure if that has something to do with it or not....
I'd like to say I love the game but I've had two new problems recently the worst is when it occasionally has over 200 error codes (no idea why) and Possible Spoiler but no matter what i cant access the nexus even on day 100+
200 error codes?
Could you elaborate so then Arc can fix them?
The nexus is accessed by progressing Pixie’s story, which causes the council to take an interest in you and then you access it through Morgana’s place.
Apologies, some user interface redesigns left some issues concerning “where the hell to put the damn thing”.
So the quick menu is broken for the time being.
Hopefully it will be functional next version (0.18.4) which will release next Thursday.
If this was via the Itch auto-updater then sadly that's something that can happen randomly (I have no idea why, it's an eccentricity with Itch's methodology and nothing to be done at my end, sadly).
However, for some reason it leaves the autosaves untouched! So if you open your LOAD screen and tap on the "A" at the bottom-left, to the left of the page numbers, you will be able to reload your autosaves (which are recorded every time you sleep).
I always thought this adult stuff as a main theme of a game just doesn't work, because it would constantly distract you from the plot (cause horny lol).
It's not even been a week since I got into all of this and I already got proven wrong about this by a handful of games, which I consider a lot!
This one just is another gem.
HOW, just HOW, can a game of this type be this exciting and fill you with this much empathy?! How can it still be freaking hot like that?! How can it, on the other hand, not make you constantly horny and distracted?! How can this be free?! I just don't get it.
I'm planning to become a game developer myself in the future. I'm not aiming at this specific kind of work though (just yet), because I think it's way too risky. Same reasons as stated at the very top, so I can't completely let go of my point of view. But for taking this risk (and succeeding, of course), I just want to pay respect by writing this!
I'm just amazed. Wholeheartedly, thank you for this masterpiece!
Oh, friend.
The first act is just a small part of the game.
Act 2 is close to 10 times as long.
And act 3… well, it’s in development.
(bear mind, progress could be slow, project is nearing 4 years in the making, all by just one guy)
The adult games scene is… peculiar to say the least.
Some people only care about the lewdness, some want gameplay, some people actually want a story featuring adult elements (sex).
It’s difficult to strike a balance, and every developer does it their own way.
One of the unofficial mottos of CK is:
“Come for the porn, stay for the story”
It has held true, and most likely will still do in the future.
Some days I wonder if Arc could’ve made it as a “normal” game dev.
But perhaps it would’ve been much more difficult to reach an audience.
The tradeoff was, that this project can never become too “mainstream” due to its nature.
I wish I could recommend you other adult games with quality writing.
Alas, I don’t play that many adult games.
Plus there’s the issue of the individual kinks featured in the game that might not be your cup of tea. (due to the nature of the games).
Well I guess I should also question what my purpose in making games really should be.
Is it about the audience? If so, then I guess there are always different kinds of players. But that's both for adult and normal games I'd say.
Do I want to at least make a living out of it? Well, adult games or not, it's not that easy either way. I guess it's easier to start off with an adult game, but there is indeed this tradeoff you were talking about.
But if I focus more on myself, it won't really matter all that much. I mean, I'm also doing it for myself alright.
Also I can always just do both adult and normal games to see what works best for me.
I agree that this is an amazing game, and is one of my top favorites. If you haven't played them already, some other games that have a great story and gameplay while maintaining adult elements would be: Mist, Knightly Passions, Champion of Realms, Price for freedom, and Shuggerlain.

Fantastic adult VN, has a lot going for it, with some ambitious additions coming in the future it seems like- but don't let that stop you from seeing what's already here. The game has a lot of varied, quality content currently and beyond the sexy stuff there are some engaging mystery, fantasy, cute and fun parts to the game as well, it just needs more Claire :)
Ambition… a common trait of indie game devs from this ecosystem.
Sometimes they tend to bite more than they can chew.
Can’t say Arc hasn’t made that mistake (I mean, 17 main girls and who-can-remember-how-many side girls…)
It’s difficult to keep a balance.
Lewds, story, wholesomeness.
Push too hard on one and people start complaining about the others.
Definitely agree on the Claire bit.
Freckles good.
Hello, I wanted to ask for help, being honest, I can't skip the part where Jessica asks me to look for more information about the organization. Could you help me?
I didn’t quite understand your question, so I’ll work with a lot of assumptions.
There’s two options here that I can think of.
You’re progressing the main story and you reached a point where you have to ask Jessica for information about the ORG, but she refuses.
In that case, you need to raise her love level by progressing her story (Check her card on the heart icon)
You raised Jessica’s love level to 3 and can’t get it to 4 because it asks you to investigate the ORG.
In that case, you need to progress the main story leads.
You get them by taking a train to the mountains, talking to Gramps, completing the training and finding the pigeon in the lake.
To progress you follow the leads (mail shaped icon)
Thank you very much I didn't know I had to go to the mountains, but I have another question. I wanted to know how to unlock the other costumes, for example the pixie one or are they buying patreon or something?
There is no paywalled content, just the priviledge of playing the new content 3 days earlier.
Updates are every week, Mondays for supporters and it goes public the following Thursday.
As for the costumes, it depends which ones you’re missing.
In the case of Pixie, you buy most of her outfits.
And the one that is predominantly green, you get by triggering the halloween easter egg.
(You do that by buying the halloween themed furniture and setting it in your room)
Just sleep for a few days to get Pixie’s.
Gwen and Jessica also have a halloween costume, but their event happens if you go to the dungeon at night (while having the halloween decorations in your room)
Let me know if you’re missing more of them, I can’t be arsed to write the complete list of unlockable costumes.
Thank you very much, everything you tell me is helping me. I only have one last costume left, which is Chloe's. I won't release it at the Halloween event. I don't know if I have to unlock it in another
This is an Arc question, but the characters and scenes are made with Koikatsu by IllusionSoft.
Sometimes tweaked with Affinity Designer and Da Vinci Resolve.
As for the backgrounds, most of them are scenery used from Koikatsu, but some are drawn and I’ve no idea where they come from.
I like the updates done so far Arcadean. I need to know what happen to the other girls MC befriended before everything went to crap like the cute wolfgirl and the others as well if any of them are hurt like our cute Element girl who won't leave their room then I will go All Doom Slayer on their Org asses!
To be honest, I love mostly everyone. I'm in love with Gwen, love her design, and Pixie is just adorable. I just feel like Jessica's chest is a bit too big for me, but that's just to my liking. But then, the rest, they are mostly so perfect and cool.

Won't even start on Android download and reinstalled multiple times to see if it was a download issue but won't even start pls fix I really like this game
ive got the same issue im on a galaxy a12 if that helps
Did you play the game before? If so, which was the last version the game worked?
Alas, the engine is really moody sometimes when it comes to android. Some phones work, some don’t.
Arc can only spare the time to fix stuff if it breaks for the vast majority of players.
Been like a month or two I think before I decided to update
If it still did not work try using windows version and run it with joiplay on your android, it work for me most of the time when the android just fail me.
Jessica sometimes turm nudes when im going to battle (most of the time when i scouting on morning), is it a bug or feature? Because when i Meet Chastity again, jessica just nude when she describe her combat skill and all the are scared.

Well, last time I checked you can stack it on Chloe.
Like, you can carry a certain amount of potions in your bag, but you can give her dozens and you’ll have the effect for dozens of weeks.
Suggestion: For the War - A Status page where you can see the level, and at the very least equipped skill icons & a stat block. The only way to see what character is what level is to go into combat. If you put it in the prepare for battle block it would make sense and that way you'd know who to level and what skills you could learn at a glance. :)
I agree, and it's something that'll I'll certainly implement at some point. The code is fairly complex, though, and everyone went so long without content that I want to build up a few events and such first before taking the time out to work on UI stuff.
Weekly updates don't leave a lot of wiggle room, sadly! :P
Excellent, I can easily wait until then. Hehe still more territories to capture and levels to grind. Thank you for the quick response as well!
How can I learn new skills? I've defeated all the boss girls and f**d them and then recruited, but I can not find the way to learn new skills
To have the MC learn new skills you have to put him as Support and have the character with the skill you want as Frontline.
Then you use the skill until he learns it. Sometimes it might happen instantly, sometimes it takes a few battles. Depends if RNGsus likes you.
You can go back to conquered districts to look for trouble if you need fights.
I had the 4 human women living in the manor before the fall, and now its like they never existed, is it a bug? or they will be mentioned/appear later?
They haven’t been implemented yet.
Don’t worry, they’ll come back.
Well, I think Jessica mentioned training.
You may find her in the garden to train.
After that you should be able to scout and then attack the districts.
Bear in mind, there’s like 4-5 districts available and they’re around the manor.
It keeps crashin almost as soon as i press start what do I do I'm on anidroid
Will you have an official translation into Spanish?
That’s the plan, but since the game has weekly updates it would be a royal pain to have people translating the game officially.
So, translations are going to happen once the main story is finished.
Which would be in one or two years, give or take.
Hay traducciones no oficiales por ahi dando vueltas, pero Arc no se hace responsable de errores que tengan.
is there any scene with the girl that has a sword at the school??
Nope, not yet.
Her and the quiet girl from the library don’t have content, they’re hiding something and it will be revealed during act 3, probably after we take over the college once again.
Yeah me too, im really waiting this girl. And the quiet one.
Idk how this happened but I was in a battle to grind my lvs with the new boss girl as the support and I think this occurs when she use her auto attack cuz it say goons take 0 dmg afterwards
It has been relayed to the discord server already.
Looks like a code typo, it will be fixed on the next version.
This game looks interesting. What's the system requirement for it?
Hard to answer the question.
I mean, it’s a VN with pre-rendered graphics. It’s supposed to be pretty lightweight.
But also, in order to keep the game from getting too large, Arc is using a compressed format for media. That could make it so some old phones and computers struggle running the game.
Well, I guess I will just try it. I hope it runs (if not, I will lose a gigabyte).
Thanks for answering.
Edit: Anyway, what's the game engine? Perhaps I could make a better prediction from it.
RenPy, a pretty common engine for Visual Novels.
It’s supposed to be fairly lightweight.
But in my old phone, videos would stutter slightly. Because the webp and webm formats tank the cpu in exchange of filesize. It normally isn’t an issue on modern machines, but on old ones… yeah.
Ah, alright, thanks again for the further explanation!
I'm on Android and it's been a little while sense IV a update when did the file change from and apk to zip???
Apologies, it’s just a quirk of the system that Arc uses to upload the game here.
For some damn reason, every now and then it decides to put the apk inside a zip file.
You’ll need a file manager that can extract zip files (I recommend Solid Explorer) and extract it.
Or you can also use the downloads in the public posts on Patreon and Subscribestar. It’s the same version as the one posted here.
thank you for getting back to me so quickly and I'm sorry for any trouble this may have caused I really enjoy your game and look forward to see what comes next
Not my game, the developer would be TheArcadean.
I’m just tech support. He normally answers around here, but I started covering here a few days ago.
*Cracks knuckles* Im here to chew gum and fight bitches and im all outta gum.
Guess ill have to fuck 'em
So I got a new pc and never transferred any of my old data so therefore I have to restart which I have no problem with, last I played I remember there being a map for the tunnels in Luna's Demesne but I cannot remember how to obtain it can someone please help?
Field merchant guy
Is there any scenes with the white haired school girl or is there planned too be any?
If I had to drink every time someone asks about the quiet girl… I’d have no liver left.
There’s no content with her, and that’s intentional. She’s hiding something, and it will be revealed somewhere during act 3 provided you got to max autority on act 2.
lmfao im sorry man
why can't I overwrite file already on my android? always failure for overwrite. Thank you
Updating?
Normally Android is a bit weird and requires you to have plenty of free space to install stuff.
Also you may want to try going to the playstore and download Split APK Installer (SAI)… sometimes it works, and if it doesn’t it will give you more information as to why it doesn’t.
tem ou vai ter traduçao pra pt br ?
Não, pelo menos não até que a história esteja terminada.
how many more parts will there be? or is part 3 the final act
Yeah, it’s act 3 and then the epilogue.
There’s still plenty of game to go, act 3 barely started.
ok thank you
b
I've played this game the whole way through, and I loved every second of it. I look forward to Act 3's continuation, especially because I want to take back the farm. The Day Care must be liberated!
The only problem I had was the game refusing to show the quick menu even after I enabled it. It made the grindy bits, like the college lectures and the club dances very grindy.
The UI is being redesigned, and a stray bit of code disabled the quickmenu.
It should be fixed on the next version (0.18.4) which comes out public in one or two days.
i hope it turns back to the old one, the new UI is so frustrating that i cant play for 10 min without getting annoyed :(
I have found the witches hat yet when put the directions to the witch in the forest it says nothing here better retrace my steps.
Am I doing something wrong here? Or is the game bugged?
You need to open your bag and check the hat in there.
After all is done, you get her cottage as a map icon.
I'm trying this on the Android Version and it isn't working also, and I've done as you said above, still no "Cottage" location anywhere for me
Never mind, ignore me, i just noticed what im supposed to do, im just blind
Can you play as female in this game?
Nope, there are no plans for that either.
Unfortunate, will have to skip this game, though I do wish good luck to everyone involved in this project, hope it does well.
Hey I haven't been able to to play the game due to it crashing so fast after immediately pressing start or anything. I don't know if it's my phone that's problem but I just wanna know if there's a solution.
That's definitely an issue with your phone. As meme-y as it sounds, have you tried completely powering it down and turning it back on again? It solves 90% of the weird crashing issues people have.
Failing that, it may be a problem of not enough storage, faulty drivers or just that Ren'py hates your phone, sadly :/
So I just restarted my phone and it updated to android 13 so I'm gonna see if it works this time wish me luck🤞
I gotten a new phone and downloaded the game to play througj it again. Its been months since ive last touched this game. Its awesome and i remember it being hilarious too. HOWEVER WHAT HAPPENED to the four or five buttons that used to sit at the bottom thatll say like, "menu hide skip back" im on android btw and every game like this have thaf feature, including this game in the past.... what happened? I need those buttons, can someone help?
There should be an option for the 'Quick menu' in the options, it's switched off by default but it should be possible to enable it there.
Arc has been busy redesigning the User Interface, a problem that appeared was “where to put it so it doesn’t obstruct other elements”.
Ideally, it should be fixed on the next version (0.18.4) which comes out public this Thursday.
phenomenal work, i’ve only downloaded it today and finally decided to investing my time into your game, firstly, it’s been lovely seeing the group of characters and more to “come” as i continue through the story, and while it’s currently surface level for now, all the characters have been lovable and moe. can’t wait to continue jumping back into the application.
edit: based creator for consumption of chocomint ice-cream
Aww, thank you - I'm glad you're enjoying it! That always means so much to hear :)
And chocomint is the GOAT!
I seem to be having a bit of trouble constructing the Marina tunnel. I've met the Lady of the Lake and gone to the water world, but I don't seem to be getting a prompt when I visit the marina. Am I missing something? Thank you.
Do you own the Marina?
You need to convince the owner to sell. And the owner is Madison, get her to 4 hearts.
You’ve already met both fish girls so once you buy the Marina and build the tunnel you’ll find the option when vising the place. It’ll tell you what to do.
Yes, I own the marina and have Madison at 4 hearts.
I actually purchased the marina before meeting the fish girls since I blitzed Madison and Veronica's storyline, so I'm not sure if that has something to do with it or not....
Well, you need to buy the tunnel upgrade on Jessica’s office.
Having met both fish girls and having the tunel built you just go to the marina and a new interaction appears.
I'd like to say I love the game but I've had two new problems recently the worst is when it occasionally has over 200 error codes (no idea why) and Possible Spoiler but no matter what i cant access the nexus even on day 100+
200 error codes? Could you elaborate so then Arc can fix them?
The nexus is accessed by progressing Pixie’s story, which causes the council to take an interest in you and then you access it through Morgana’s place.
I think the error codes were caused by myself and they fixed its self on it's own thank you for helping me!
How can I download the game without virus?
Weird question. But you download it from official sources. Like this page, also the public links in Patreon or Subscribestar
If you are on a computer, you can use the itch.io launcher to download and update your games.
How to update the game on Android
You download the new version’s APK and install it as an update.
Don’t uninstall, or you’ll lose your savegames.
Hi, im using Android, i can't see the buttons below like the back,skip,main menu or something, is this a bug ? One more question what is yandare mode?
Apologies, some user interface redesigns left some issues concerning “where the hell to put the damn thing”. So the quick menu is broken for the time being.
Hopefully it will be functional next version (0.18.4) which will release next Thursday.
None at all.
I mean, to clarify. The “paid” version here is just a pay-what-you-want system, the “what-you-want” can be zero dollars.
A $1 subscription on Patreon or Subscribestar will give you access to the game 3 days earlier.
That’s it, no paywalled content.
In the main menu, hit the EXTRAS button.
ADDENDUM: Deleted post was asking how to see the gallery.
installed the new weekly release and lost all my saves.....
What platform are you using?
How did you install the new release?
If this was via the Itch auto-updater then sadly that's something that can happen randomly (I have no idea why, it's an eccentricity with Itch's methodology and nothing to be done at my end, sadly).
However, for some reason it leaves the autosaves untouched! So if you open your LOAD screen and tap on the "A" at the bottom-left, to the left of the page numbers, you will be able to reload your autosaves (which are recorded every time you sleep).
Just recently got into these kind of games.
I always thought this adult stuff as a main theme of a game just doesn't work, because it would constantly distract you from the plot (cause horny lol).

Do I want to at least make a living out of it? Well, adult games or not, it's not that easy either way. I guess it's easier to start off with an adult game, but there is indeed this tradeoff you were talking about.
But if I focus more on myself, it won't really matter all that much. I mean, I'm also doing it for myself alright.
Also I can always just do both adult and normal games to see what works best for me.
I agree that this is an amazing game, and is one of my top favorites. If you haven't played them already, some other games that have a great story and gameplay while maintaining adult elements would be: Mist, Knightly Passions, Champion of Realms, Price for freedom, and Shuggerlain.

Fantastic adult VN, has a lot going for it, with some ambitious additions coming in the future it seems like- but don't let that stop you from seeing what's already here. The game has a lot of varied, quality content currently and beyond the sexy stuff there are some engaging mystery, fantasy, cute and fun parts to the game as well, it just needs more Claire :)
Ambition… a common trait of indie game devs from this ecosystem.
Sometimes they tend to bite more than they can chew. Can’t say Arc hasn’t made that mistake (I mean, 17 main girls and who-can-remember-how-many side girls…)
It’s difficult to keep a balance. Lewds, story, wholesomeness. Push too hard on one and people start complaining about the others.
Definitely agree on the Claire bit. Freckles good.
Hello, I wanted to ask for help, being honest, I can't skip the part where Jessica asks me to look for more information about the organization. Could you help me?
I didn’t quite understand your question, so I’ll work with a lot of assumptions.
There’s two options here that I can think of.
You’re progressing the main story and you reached a point where you have to ask Jessica for information about the ORG, but she refuses. In that case, you need to raise her love level by progressing her story (Check her card on the heart icon)
You raised Jessica’s love level to 3 and can’t get it to 4 because it asks you to investigate the ORG. In that case, you need to progress the main story leads. You get them by taking a train to the mountains, talking to Gramps, completing the training and finding the pigeon in the lake. To progress you follow the leads (mail shaped icon)
Thank you very much I didn't know I had to go to the mountains, but I have another question. I wanted to know how to unlock the other costumes, for example the pixie one or are they buying patreon or something?
Don’t worry about Patreon.
There is no paywalled content, just the priviledge of playing the new content 3 days earlier.
Updates are every week, Mondays for supporters and it goes public the following Thursday.
As for the costumes, it depends which ones you’re missing.
In the case of Pixie, you buy most of her outfits. And the one that is predominantly green, you get by triggering the halloween easter egg.
(You do that by buying the halloween themed furniture and setting it in your room)
Just sleep for a few days to get Pixie’s. Gwen and Jessica also have a halloween costume, but their event happens if you go to the dungeon at night (while having the halloween decorations in your room)
Let me know if you’re missing more of them, I can’t be arsed to write the complete list of unlockable costumes.
Thank you very much, everything you tell me is helping me. I only have one last costume left, which is Chloe's. I won't release it at the Halloween event. I don't know if I have to unlock it in another
Well, if I had to guess which one it is…
It is a costume, but the event is not related to the halloween stuff.
You need to have:
With that done, you check Chloe’s room on a weekend morning.
What did you use to make the characters and backgrounds?
This is an Arc question, but the characters and scenes are made with Koikatsu by IllusionSoft. Sometimes tweaked with Affinity Designer and Da Vinci Resolve.
As for the backgrounds, most of them are scenery used from Koikatsu, but some are drawn and I’ve no idea where they come from.
I like the updates done so far Arcadean. I need to know what happen to the other girls MC befriended before everything went to crap like the cute wolfgirl and the others as well if any of them are hurt like our cute Element girl who won't leave their room then I will go All Doom Slayer on their Org asses!
All in due time, brother.
We have no way to reach them yet, so we need to push forward in our conquest to take back the town.
Slowly but surely, we’ll pave our way with the corpses of anyone foolish enough to stand in our way.
And if the girls were hurt?
Well, a king needs a throne. Built with the skulls of those heretics.
I JUST LIKE, STARTED THE UPDATE, AND, I CAN'T SAY DETAILS, BUT, AHOGSEIAJHDGLSISJRALSHJG. I LOVE CHURCH LADY.
I'M GLAD YOU LIKE HER SO MUCH! :)
To be honest, I love mostly everyone. I'm in love with Gwen, love her design, and Pixie is just adorable. I just feel like Jessica's chest is a bit too big for me, but that's just to my liking. But then, the rest, they are mostly so perfect and cool.
