i use android and try to play this game but even early in the game my game freezes during in the bar with the man within the dialogue "I'll kill you" is this a bug or something cause i already downloaded the folder many times
sorry broken English read to many cultivation manhua recently
I'm at the Church, trying to talk to Chastity (the nun) for the first time and when the fairy says "Let's go!" The game completely freezes up. No reaction from the menu buttons pressing back or tapping, although the music keeps playing.
The Itch launcher has this weird interaction with Ren'py games where it will randomly erase manual saves on updates for no discernible reason. It's at Itch's end, so sadly there's nothing I can do to stop it from happening.
That being said, all your autosaves will still be there. Open the LOAD screen and click on the "A" down at the bottom of the screen, to the left of the page numbers. Autosaves trigger every time you sleep, so you won't have lost any progress.
Not sure why itch.io doesn’t let the game write saves to the separate folder.
I have something that - provided you got the time - you should try.
Go to the game’s page in the itch.io launcher.
In the bottom-right corner, click the gear icon.
Click the button that says Manage.
Click on Open folder in Explorer
At this point you should see a bunch of game versions.
For the sake of this example, let’s say you updated from 0.19.6 to 0.19.7 and your saves went missing.
You go to the folder for the 0.19.6 version, inside it there will be a folder called game. Inside of that one you’ll find a folder named saves.
If you see inside a bunch of files with numbers in the name and .save file extension, then you’re good. If you don’t, check another version’s folder or resign because you lost your saves.
So assuming you did find some saves, just move the saves folder over to the newest version.
The game isn't finished yet (hence the weekly updates) so if you've conquered most of the western side of the town then there's nothing more you can do until I add it in :)
Soon, sooooooon... don't worry, though, they're fine. All alone out there... isolated... surrounded by MC's mortal enemy, with only Annie and Kana to watch over them.
Ive never played an h game since the trope always seems to be crappy sex scenes and minimal plot, ive also never enjoyed this type of sandbox game, but holy am i addicted. The pacing of acts 1 and 2 were phenominal in char building and the amount of content that exists is insane, i missed several small things like "make your room holloween themed and visit the dungeon at night" prior to act 3 and regret it but little things like that are amazong, khana coming in to put flowers in your empty vase... i agree with other people w/ the act 3 combat... its meh and the story for who youre fighting in those areas is kinda lack luster, but i get that it hasnt been flushed out yet. All that said to say youre doing great and im looking forward to all future content!
I'm glad you've been enjoying it (for the most part) and I'm working hard on adding a lot more story and smaller events to Act Three now, to bring the whole thing much more in-line with acts One and Two :)
I hope you continue to enjoy everything I have planned for the future!
I’m gonna be honest, Act 1 was a bit slow but still fun, and Act 2 made this one of my favorite games of the genre. Act 3 though, hoo boy, it’s lowering this game’s charm from a solid 9/10 to a 6/10 at best. The combat is boring and lazy and the story feels like it’s been sidelined. I know me saying this isn’t going to change anything, but i’ll say it nonetheless. Remove the entire combat system and create a separate title for it. Just make it a spin-off title and keep this game as the visual novel that it was in Act 1-2. Either that, or make it bonus content.
When I found the “skip all combat” button, I thought it was smart, but sadly all it does is water everything down and it shows that the amount of effort has gone down significantly in the story. This game doesn’t need a combat system. This really has been one of my favorite games of the genre until this point, but i’ve completely lost my desire to keep playing it. When the game officially launches, perhaps just make this battle thing a bonus mode in the extras menu or something. It really has no place in a game that built a fanbase on its visual novel aspects, amazing characters and well-written story.
My advice to anyone reading these reviews is to give this game a chance, it’s very good for the first two acts (which is a pretty big chunk of content). That being said, make sure you save the game on a separate file before entering Act 3, as you’re almost certainly gonna be going back to it a bunch, as it’s where the charm lies.
Sadly, 6/10 currently. Really praying for some kind of fix here, because the disappointment has been immeasurable. This game has so much potential, but the dev just seems to want to add more and more new features rather than delivering the visual novel that got everyone’s attention in the first place. Play to your strengths, stop trying to be everything at once. It never works out in the end
I agree with this so much, I loved the game up until act 3, honestly I think 6/10 is being generous. The character development is completely out the window at this point, which to me is the main point of any VN.
I tried to hang on for a while in hopes of the game returning to what it does best, but unfortunately I've since deleted it, as it seems were not getting that back.
Completely fair. I will say, in defense of the system, that some form of conflict resolution mechanic was required - the town and surrounding environs descending into war was foreshadowed throughout the first two acts and is necessary for the story - but it took a lot longer to implement than I had anticipated (the unfortunate side effect of this being my first proper game).
Now that the mechanic is in place and stabilized I can - and have been - focusing significantly more on the storyline, with Lily, Emma and the Create a Character story events taking front and center place in the last three updates.
That being said... I actually agree with you.
I had a vision for the battle system that would integrate with and compliment the overall narrative, but unfortunately what it's done in practice is to separate the game into two sides that barely interact with each other.
(Not to mention the whiplash that players experience, playing a straight sandbox VN for the first twenty hours and then suddenly being thrown into an old-school SNES-era combat RPG.)
I thought I could use the mechanics to give players more of a sense of immediate agency - and some people do very much enjoy it - but on the whole I think it's too much of a departure from what people enjoyed about the first two acts.
I'm not making any snap decisions, and this is very likely something I will discuss with the community over the next month, but I just wanted to let you know that your disappointment is heard and it is in fact something I am considering how to address :)
Well, let me say first of all that I greatly appreciate how accepting you’re being of the criticism, it does make me hopeful knowing that you understand what i’m saying. I think a good compromise point would be, like- if you’re truly wanting to do the combat stuff and you feel it’s necessary to tell the story, then i’m sure a lot of people could get behind that, just so long as the story and such doesn’t fall behind as a result, if that makes sense. I’m not saying this to kiss ass or anything, but this really has been one of my favorite, uh… “adult games”, shall we say. I do honestly thing the story itself is pretty good on a regular game level (as h games are notorious for bad stories). Just, if it takes time, i’m sure the community is willing to wait, myself included. Just so long as the story hasn’t been forgotten.
Sidenote, as the creator, i’m curious. Who’s been your favorite character to write so far?
As Chris said, not in the next update, but very soon :) There's a whole "thing" attached to it - it will shake things up quite a bit - so it will take a little while longer to get ready.
Game is already free.
Will be to the end as far as I can tell.
Supporters ($1 a month or higher on Patreon/Subscribestar) get access to tne new updates 3 days earlier.
But no extra content or any other paywalled bullshit.
There have been talks of releasing an uncompiled version with all the assets once the game is done, for something between 5 and 15 bucks for people that may want to use the CK assets to mess around and possibly make their own games at some point.
Chris covered everything very thoroughly, but just so there's an "official" response:
Yes, when the game is finished it will be released to everyone for free - no paygated content or purchasable DLCs or anything like that :)
What I will do, however, is also release - at the same time - a completed unencrypted and uncompiled version of the game for a small fee. This version will be released under the Creative Commons license, which will allow you to do anything you want with the code, characters and assets.
Want to mod the game? Sure thing! Want to use it as the base for a brand-new game of your own? Absolutely! Want to take the characters and use them in other forms of media? You go, girl. Whatever you like. I'd honestly be fascinated to see what people do with it :)
I mean, the game isn’t really encouraging you to have multiple kids with the same mother.
Since they’re all clones that act the same, it’s just in for the sake of giving people into the preggo kink the chance to do that scene again.
But if you go to the daycare, check the registry, I believe it also lists the kids that you yeeted into the nexus.
As Chris says, the Daycare already provides a list of all the kids' names in case you've forgotten who you've thrown into the Nexus.
I could potentially duplicate the list in the Nexus, too, to save people from having to backtrack, but that sort of thing will likely have to wait for when CK goes into beta.
Im abouta start for the first time. quick question. is there any way to know which path your going on whether it be hero path or villain path? and also if you choose one path are you completly locked out of content from the other?
I played this back a while ago, and fell in love with it. All the unique characters, the amazing dialogue that was believable and adorable, everything. Well done.
After the alpha, yes. That will be when the game is feature-complete and the only things left to do are fixing, polishing and adding new events where needed/appropriate :)
You mean the Patreon/Subscribestar tier reward? They're on separate posts, as they're a higher tier than the game itself. You will need the base Koikatsu software to use them.
Talking to Ami(Wednesday) on East hallway, encountering Ami on East hallway the UI for the rooms wont disappear as Ami's dialogue starts and when picking to talk to ami her Paper doll appears twice
Android, I assume? You're using a non-standard keyboard. You'll have to download a different keyboard app from the Play Store - any well-known app should work, for example Google Keyboard :)
so on pc if i want to install the next version when it comes out, is there any way to save my progress on the old version cus i rlly dont wanna go through al that again
I must ask but how do I update from 19.1 to 19.6 without loosing progress? So far the only way I can see that works requires me uninstalling and reinstalling but that would get rid of many hours of work now
You just download the APK of the new version and install it as an update.
It may fail, it’s often because Android likes having a lot of free space.
Other option is to backup your saves, uninstall and install the game again so you can put the saves back there manually.
WHERE ARE SAVES LOCATED ON ANDROID?
Android/data/com.domain.corruptedkingdoms/files/saves
NOTE: If you’re running Android 11+ then Google has hidden your data folder. To access it you need to connect your phone to your PC with a USB cable or use an app like Solid Explorer or X-Plore to give you access to the folder again.
question I've been meaning to ask for awhile: The conquered district bosses, after they've been rehabilitated or... "broken". Why don't they become residents of the manors east wing?? Just makes sense to keep all your commanding soldiers close in case of attack. ALSO, it opens up the avenue for H-scenes outside of the dungeon, which im not so fond of anyway. also, it would open up the option to 'call someone to sleep with' again.
Yeah, I know I'm a sentimental romantic type. Even though we're all raised in a big ass matrix of lies to believe otherwise, The world caters very little to my kind. *womp womp* =(
Oh, one more question regarding the east wing.: why is the creepy cosplay nun/scientist/puppet polar opposite of buckaroo banzai on the human floor? I mean, i get she WAS human but... thats no longer the case. that bitch is something else now... and we all know it... but, really, that question is pretty inconsequential. just a note of curiosity.
I believe that initially the bossgirls were going to be just throwaway fuckdolls with less depth than a kiddie pool.
Eventually, Arc figured out that making so many bossgirls is madness AND a sizeable amount of people weren’t happy with them just being throwaway fuckdolls (that’s how we got the therapy stuff).
So now that the amount of bossgirls will be reduced I presume the ones we’ll get will have a little bit more depth and maybe some extra sex scenes that aren’t so… questionable.
I also don’t know if they live in the manor or not.
Maybe once they’re recruited (not in dungeon) they just go back to their districts until you call them for whatever reason you may want to call them.
If you remember, Puppet invited herself.
That room wasn’t there before.
But yeah, she was human…
Not sure what in the kentucky-fried-fuck she is supposed to be right now.
She’s not Fey, and I don’t think she qualifies as Eldritch. So I guess we’ll default to Human.
fair enough. seems like we're aways from any kind of substantial update. I'm sure all kinks, whips and chains will be ironed out eventually. til then I think Ill take a step back from this project n wait til there's actually something you can do in the game again.
"kentucky-fried-fuck"... thats going up there with "holy black on a Popo!"
ima be honest, i didn't like Qarinah at first. partially because i had my eyes on the minotaur, but i found her too forward so i did her questline last (before following leads) and honestly, i didn't expect to like her. -without spoilers- her story was honestly one of my favorites.
Anyone know why the H-scenes are locked even though im up to date on the game and the latest version? I unlocked all of it but now they are locked again.
Did you move any of your saves around at any point? All gallery unlocks are stored in the "persistence" file in your savegame folder, so if anything happens to that it'll wipe out all your persistent data, including gallery unlocks.
It's not that they "never bothered"; it's that they publicly went on record saying that they approved of indie developers using their assets. They just have no legal licensing avenue set up, as it wasn't worth their time to hire the lawyers to draft it and the staff to process the licensing requests.
FAKKU (the western publisher of the first Honey Select, a relatively early Illusionsoft game) attempted to take the solo developer of Harem Hotel to court a couple years back for use of unlicensed assets and the case would have gone through - and been won by FAKKU - if Illusionsoft themselves hadn't stepped in and told FAKKU to knock it off. This was, in fact, the inciting incident that made Illusionsoft step away from third party publishers in the west and market their games directly themselves through Steam.
So the answer to Poco's question is: hopefully not. But it depends entirely on who - if anyone - picks up Illusionsoft's IP after they shutter their doors. If nobody does, or if they get picked up by a company with the same attitude as Illusionsoft, then all is well.
But if the IP is swallowed up by a company like FAKKU... well, fingers crossed.
Worst case scenario, I will rebuild CK with brand new assets. The story will be told! Let's just hope it doesn't come to that :P

Game got stuck during first talk to the nun also again at the bar talking to the mean "man"
Cant progress further unfortunately... Is there a fix??
No fix yet, new issues.
Supporters didn’t find it so we just learned this was a problem.
UPDATE: Found the cause, now trying to find a way to fix it.
У меня та же проблема
glad to hear that you guys are on a way to fix it!
Will be waiting for a fix, thanks a lot 👍
Fix is live now! :) Sorry for the inconvenience!
i use android and try to play this game but even early in the game my game freezes during in the bar with the man within the dialogue "I'll kill you" is this a bug or something cause i already downloaded the folder many times
sorry broken English read to many cultivation manhua recently
No idea why this happens, looking into it.
thanks you for replying and noticing, i hope you and the rest of the team have a wonderful day
Well, team is an odd word.
Arc is the developer, he does the writing, visuals and code.
I’m just a rando that ended up becoming tech support :P
As for the bug, I identified that’s an issue with some relatively low-end phones.
The game plays some videos as cutscenes and for some reason the phone just refuses to play them.
My game keeps getting an error right after meeting with Sawano
here is a link of my traceback file.
any ideas on a fix?
I don't know if it helps but I just clicked ignore and the game went on without issues.
I did that too, but I would prefer my game not being broken.
Thanks for the traceback.
But for the time being, try hitting Ignore.
Unless you get a different traceback… It seems this one has to do with the kinetic text…
UPDATE:
Good news, found the issue and fixed it for the next version.
Bad news, Arc is going to take a break and the game won’t get updated until the 18th.
(Unless Arc decides to make a patched version.)
I've found a bug with the android release.
I'm at the Church, trying to talk to Chastity (the nun) for the first time and when the fairy says "Let's go!" The game completely freezes up. No reaction from the menu buttons pressing back or tapping, although the music keeps playing.
Any way to fix this?
having exact same issue here, hopefully there is a fix, 😥
I initially wasn’t able to find the exact reason why this happens.
But now more people are getting this issue.
I guess it’s time to look deeper into it.
But for the time being, we don’t really know why this happens.
ADDENDUM:
It’s an issue with certain phones.
The game tries to play a cutscene and it just freezes instead of playing the video.
Interesting... Well, at least that's an answer of some kind!
If you have time, it would help if you could join the discord server.
I kinda need some test subjects to know if this bug is fixed or not. My phone doesn’t have the problem.
I lost all my save files with the newest update, what's up with that? Is it as intended or?
No, not really.
What platform are you playing on?
Windows, Mac, Linux, Android?
If you’re on PC, are you using the itch.io launcher?
Windows, and yes I am using the itch.io launcher.
The Itch launcher has this weird interaction with Ren'py games where it will randomly erase manual saves on updates for no discernible reason. It's at Itch's end, so sadly there's nothing I can do to stop it from happening.

That's the thing though. The autosaves were gone too
Hmm, this is weird.
Not sure why itch.io doesn’t let the game write saves to the separate folder.
I have something that - provided you got the time - you should try.
At this point you should see a bunch of game versions.
So assuming you did find some saves, just move the saves folder over to the newest version.
can someone give me a save file from before the war?
Ask in Discord, not exactly easy to share files here.
Have your needed rest king
Thanks! :) I'm looking forward to the downtime, but I suspect I'm going to spend half of it thinking up story ideas...
looking forward to recruiting other people in future updates
okay, im on the war phase and im stuck, i cant attack anymore or do things
The game isn't finished yet (hence the weekly updates) so if you've conquered most of the western side of the town then there's nothing more you can do until I add it in :)
LEMME OUT! LEMME SEE MY CHILDREN! LEMME PET KANAAAAAA!!!
Soon, sooooooon... don't worry, though, they're fine. All alone out there... isolated... surrounded by MC's mortal enemy, with only Annie and Kana to watch over them.
They're fiiiiiiiiiiiine ;)
Kana better be alive. The children? well i placed all mine with the artifact cos breeding kinks go BRRRRRRRT

I'm glad you've been enjoying it (for the most part) and I'm working hard on adding a lot more story and smaller events to Act Three now, to bring the whole thing much more in-line with acts One and Two :)
I hope you continue to enjoy everything I have planned for the future!
My second favorite h game(first is goddess' whim)
I'm honored to have made it into the top two! :)
I’m gonna be honest, Act 1 was a bit slow but still fun, and Act 2 made this one of my favorite games of the genre. Act 3 though, hoo boy, it’s lowering this game’s charm from a solid 9/10 to a 6/10 at best. The combat is boring and lazy and the story feels like it’s been sidelined.

Sadly, 6/10 currently. Really praying for some kind of fix here, because the disappointment has been immeasurable. This game has so much potential, but the dev just seems to want to add more and more new features rather than delivering the visual novel that got everyone’s attention in the first place.

Sidenote, as the creator, i’m curious. Who’s been your favorite character to write so far?
When we will be able to take the college back? In the next weekly updade or it will take longer?
Not the next one.
I mean, for once Arc doesn’t really have a timetable. Just estimates.
I’m not sure if we’re done with the current pipeline of Lily content, also Emma was getting some content. And then there’s Lyx appearing once.
In summary, I don’t know. And fairly certain Arc doesn’t know either.
But for sure not on the next version.
As Chris said, not in the next update, but very soon :) There's a whole "thing" attached to it - it will shake things up quite a bit - so it will take a little while longer to get ready.
No.
Just no.
There’s a reason why a developer changes things. If they could keep things how they were, they would. Since it’s often the easier path.
Maintaining both the old and the new version of something is just unnecessary extra effort. That and the file bloat would get bad quickly.
A question
Will this project will be free when your done with the game or do we have to pay
i will support it either way
Game is already free. Will be to the end as far as I can tell.
Supporters ($1 a month or higher on Patreon/Subscribestar) get access to tne new updates 3 days earlier. But no extra content or any other paywalled bullshit.
There have been talks of releasing an uncompiled version with all the assets once the game is done, for something between 5 and 15 bucks for people that may want to use the CK assets to mess around and possibly make their own games at some point.

In "find kids", instead of remembering their name, can't you make the same UI like when we visit day care.
Ehm… probably not.
I mean, the game isn’t really encouraging you to have multiple kids with the same mother. Since they’re all clones that act the same, it’s just in for the sake of giving people into the preggo kink the chance to do that scene again.
But if you go to the daycare, check the registry, I believe it also lists the kids that you yeeted into the nexus.

I could potentially duplicate the list in the Nexus, too, to save people from having to backtrack, but that sort of thing will likely have to wait for when CK goes into beta.
Im abouta start for the first time. quick question. is there any way to know which path your going on whether it be hero path or villain path? and also if you choose one path are you completly locked out of content from the other?
There are no hero or villain paths.
Most choices are pretty self isolated with low to no consequence.
And the ones that matter are pretty obvious. (Like killing or recruiting a character)
Game is made by just one guy, branching like that would take more than a decade.
I played this back a while ago, and fell in love with it. All the unique characters, the amazing dialogue that was believable and adorable, everything. Well done.
oh and I have to add, the story is gripping and awesome. Honestly.
Thank you, I'm glad you're enjoying it! :) It always means a lot to a developer to hear that people are having fun with their creation!
Will there be a basket ball mini game? i Need to be able crush them in basketball.
I'm afraid not - Ren'py doesn't really lend itself to minigames. The battle system alone took over a month to code! ;P
will there be a beta version
After the alpha, yes. That will be when the game is feature-complete and the only things left to do are fixing, polishing and adding new events where needed/appropriate :)
crashes on launch.
" error: Error -3 while decompressing data: incorrect header check"
how do i fix this?
Sounds like your download was corrupted. This can happen because of micro-outages on your ISP or anything that interrupts the download process.
Download again and it should be fine :)
I'm stuck at the part where I have to conquer the college or the outskirts zones, but it won't let me.
Is it a me problem or it's normal?
I'm from mobile so I didn't delete an reinstall or else I would lose data.
The game isn't finished yet (hence the weekly updates) so not all locations can be conquered right now :)
(Android User) I can't find the character card thingies! It's not there!
You mean the Patreon/Subscribestar tier reward? They're on separate posts, as they're a higher tier than the game itself. You will need the base Koikatsu software to use them.
If you instead meant the heart cards (I call them that because of the heart icon)
They only appear in act 2, after you go out to the map for the first time.
can a save file from previous versions of the game be used for newer versions?
Yes, all save files are automatically transferred between each version :)
So, even if there is a version gap between them, can I save the save files from a previous version and use them on the latest version?
Yeah, no problem.
I have some really old saves that still work.
Just bear in mind, saving in the middle of a dialogue might end up with the save not working if Arc has to change the script (typos, plotholes, etc)
So try to save in a location, like the MC’s bedroom.
Oke, thanks for the notice
Just found a bug on the new release
Talking to Ami(Wednesday) on East hallway, encountering Ami on East hallway the UI for the rooms wont disappear as Ami's dialogue starts and when picking to talk to ami her Paper doll appears twice
I'll look into it, thanks! :)
Android, I assume? You're using a non-standard keyboard. You'll have to download a different keyboard app from the Play Store - any well-known app should work, for example Google Keyboard :)
Does anyone know what the nun means by "Think backwords" for the next key for the nexus. Cause im stuck on this
literally just type think backwords when it prompts you to type something at the nexus
Thanks, i just relized i was spelling it wrong
No problem my first time I'd literally typed/spelt think backwards "sdrawkcab kniht" but it's not supposed to be that complicated XD
Well that does also work ;)
so on pc if i want to install the next version when it comes out, is there any way to save my progress on the old version cus i rlly dont wanna go through al that again
just download the new version, you won't need to do anything
I must ask but how do I update from 19.1 to 19.6 without loosing progress? So far the only way I can see that works requires me uninstalling and reinstalling but that would get rid of many hours of work now
Assuming you’re on phone.
You just download the APK of the new version and install it as an update.
It may fail, it’s often because Android likes having a lot of free space.
Other option is to backup your saves, uninstall and install the game again so you can put the saves back there manually.
WHERE ARE SAVES LOCATED ON ANDROID? Android/data/com.domain.corruptedkingdoms/files/saves
NOTE: If you’re running Android 11+ then Google has hidden your data folder. To access it you need to connect your phone to your PC with a USB cable or use an app like Solid Explorer or X-Plore to give you access to the folder again.
how to get the apartment?
You’ll have to be more specific.
In Act 2 you get to the apartments via the explore button.
If you progress far enough into the story you unlock it as a map icon.
In Act 3, it’s just a district like any other, so if you can’t get to it just take over other districts first.
oh so it's in act 3, thanks for the help.
I mean if you want to unlock the apartment before act 3 then explore while in act 2
This game is amazing but I have one little problem with this.
WHAT IS UP WITH THE HEADPAT ANIMATION!!!!!!!!! WHO HEADPATS LIKE THAT!!!!!!!!!...........
so jessicas last outfit is pretty hard to find, i cant seem to get it....
I’m assuming you mean the one where it looks like she’s wearing a hat.
If so:
With those two done, just visit the dungeon at night.
Otherwise, if you somehow meant the purple one… Check the manor’s living room on a weekend.
question I've been meaning to ask for awhile: The conquered district bosses, after they've been rehabilitated or... "broken". Why don't they become residents of the manors east wing?? Just makes sense to keep all your commanding soldiers close in case of attack. ALSO, it opens up the avenue for H-scenes outside of the dungeon, which im not so fond of anyway. also, it would open up the option to 'call someone to sleep with' again.
Yeah, I know I'm a sentimental romantic type. Even though we're all raised in a big ass matrix of lies to believe otherwise, The world caters very little to my kind. *womp womp* =(
Oh, one more question regarding the east wing.: why is the creepy cosplay nun/scientist/puppet polar opposite of buckaroo banzai on the human floor? I mean, i get she WAS human but... thats no longer the case. that bitch is something else now... and we all know it... but, really, that question is pretty inconsequential. just a note of curiosity.
Not Arc, so some of this is pure speculation.
I believe that initially the bossgirls were going to be just throwaway fuckdolls with less depth than a kiddie pool.
Eventually, Arc figured out that making so many bossgirls is madness AND a sizeable amount of people weren’t happy with them just being throwaway fuckdolls (that’s how we got the therapy stuff).
So now that the amount of bossgirls will be reduced I presume the ones we’ll get will have a little bit more depth and maybe some extra sex scenes that aren’t so… questionable.
I also don’t know if they live in the manor or not. Maybe once they’re recruited (not in dungeon) they just go back to their districts until you call them for whatever reason you may want to call them.
If you remember, Puppet invited herself. That room wasn’t there before.
But yeah, she was human…
She’s not Fey, and I don’t think she qualifies as Eldritch. So I guess we’ll default to Human.
fair enough. seems like we're aways from any kind of substantial update. I'm sure all kinks, whips and chains will be ironed out eventually. til then I think Ill take a step back from this project n wait til there's actually something you can do in the game again.
"kentucky-fried-fuck"... thats going up there with "holy black on a Popo!"
Im having trouble downloading it, every time i get to the part with installing the app (am on Android) it just tells me, "app not installed"
Do you have enough free space on your phone?
Android is a bit fussy installing APK files this big.
If freeing space didn’t work, try downloading Split APK Installer (SAI) and install the game with it.
Either it will install… for some reason. Or it will at least tell you why it doesn’t want to install.
ima be honest, i didn't like Qarinah at first. partially because i had my eyes on the minotaur, but i found her too forward so i did her questline last (before following leads) and honestly, i didn't expect to like her. -without spoilers- her story was honestly one of my favorites.
Well, that just proves how well she was written.
Proven time and time again.
although it could be a lie. Monster Girl Island promised me a story and Redamz has been MIA for over a year. i hope this doesn't vanish like that game
I didn’t know it had a story. I just watched people record the sex scenes and upload them to pornhub back in the day…
But yeah, Arc has built himself a reputation. That’s one of the main points of weekly updates.
You know the project is alive and that the dev isn’t just jerking off while playing gacha games.
Was there anyone in the sex scene with Chloe in draft Assassin The scene doesn't load
Anyone know why the H-scenes are locked even though im up to date on the game and the latest version? I unlocked all of it but now they are locked again.
Probably just a bug, u can unlock the gallery with cheats in the laptop
yeah probably, I am currently playing on android but I might just transfer all my saves to play PC might be better for the long and quality wise.
Did you move any of your saves around at any point? All gallery unlocks are stored in the "persistence" file in your savegame folder, so if anything happens to that it'll wipe out all your persistent data, including gallery unlocks.
I did move my saves to PC while my phone was getting repaired so i wouldnt lose it maybe thats why its locked again.
Arc my bro say it isnt so please dont tell me gwens down for the count
She's hanging in there! But as to whether or not she can be "fixed," well... only time will tell!
Don't do this to me bro my yandere gotta make the comeback here's to her comeback your good fortune bro thanks for all that you do
I just heard about Illusion shutting down in August, will it effect the game ?
It shouldn’t.
Like, technically no one using Koikatsu to make games has a license to use it, it’s just that Illusion never bothered to go after anyone.
And since most of the stuff usable in KK is community stuff, that will remain the same.
There is an unlikely scenario where it could affect everyone using KK… Let’s just hope it doesn’t come to that.
It's not that they "never bothered"; it's that they publicly went on record saying that they approved of indie developers using their assets. They just have no legal licensing avenue set up, as it wasn't worth their time to hire the lawyers to draft it and the staff to process the licensing requests.
FAKKU (the western publisher of the first Honey Select, a relatively early Illusionsoft game) attempted to take the solo developer of Harem Hotel to court a couple years back for use of unlicensed assets and the case would have gone through - and been won by FAKKU - if Illusionsoft themselves hadn't stepped in and told FAKKU to knock it off. This was, in fact, the inciting incident that made Illusionsoft step away from third party publishers in the west and market their games directly themselves through Steam.
So the answer to Poco's question is: hopefully not. But it depends entirely on who - if anyone - picks up Illusionsoft's IP after they shutter their doors. If nobody does, or if they get picked up by a company with the same attitude as Illusionsoft, then all is well.
But if the IP is swallowed up by a company like FAKKU... well, fingers crossed.
Worst case scenario, I will rebuild CK with brand new assets. The story will be told! Let's just hope it doesn't come to that :P
Didn’t know the bit about them actually being okay with it.
I mean, considering they’re japanaese and apparently their copyright laws are part of the reason why companies like Nintendo are how they are.
Welp, shit, now it sucks even more that they’re gone.
Did know about the FAKKU thing, didn’t see fit to include it in a shorter reply.
And yes, the somewhat unlikely scenario is that. The remains getting vored by some company that’s as much of an ass as FAKKU.
Possibly worse… Imagine it’s Nintendo… C&D left and right.
Thank you for the explanation, I was really worried about games that uses illusionsoft as a base for their game models. Let's hope for the best.
