Hey, I've just stepped into the world of creating VN's, and I was wondering what art applications everyone uses in order to create the art for the games(BG, characters, etc)? Currently using Ren'Py to create the VN's, as I've heard good things about it.
Not sure how many have caught an error (unless it's been noticed in the Discord that I'm not part of), but there was an exception error when Pixie wanted to talk during an important scene (I won't spoil much here). I did capture the error log if any of the CK dev members wish to see it.
Im having an issue with the most recent public release.
anytime i do any of the repeatable naughty scenes the game black screens and keeps making the sound of someone talking endlessly (it doesnt crash just never stops beeping at me even with the voice muted)
I saw your post about them closing your Patreon page (I was a supporter for a short bit before I went nuts with my money and had to stop). I would like to join your Subscribestar if it helps at all. :D I first enjoyed this game through itch.io WAY back on version 0.16.4. I haven't played the game past that update, and I still loved everything about it. The music cues, the sex scenes, being able to "control" things in a way, the heart system, and the entire cast of characters. I can only imagine how much better it's become since that update! I'll see you on Subscribestar!
Not sure why you got downvoted, it's a perfectly legitimate concern.
Nothing's changed in the SDK or fundemental code since 0.21.6a so if it's suddenly crashing for you then it's an issue with your device I'm afraid. Could be a lack of storage space, corrupted drivers, or an OS update that's interacting badly with Ren'py.
Try clearing up some space and then fully power down your device (NOT restart - a full power off). If it's a storage or driver issue then that will fix the problem.
I have a problem I have a oppo phone and when I press to download the files there is a message that says my download has failed. Has anyone had this problem? Or you know how to fix it?
hey, just curious if there's something i can do with the lamia when you explore near gramps, and the uuuh, groundskeeper for the fey you run into by exploring too, forgot her name/title unless thats right lol i went to act 3, and had to back track to a file in act 2 as close to the end as possible and i want to get everything done thats in the game :o (can't believe i missed the whole college experience first time through lol)
side note, the kids in the game are so fucking adorable, you did that whole pregnancy update thing amazingly, how are they so cute lol
Interaction with the Lamia is unfortunately temporarily disabled while I migrate the new Hidden Voices system across, but once that's done you'll be able to read her mind and engage in certain... activities with her.
Caretaker has no interactions just yet. Look for more from her in Act Three! :)
I made an itchio account just to say thank you for somehow simultaneously making a donationware game that is also one of the best hentai games ever made. I was not expecting just how many hours of content this was gonna have, as most games of this kind aren't longer than 5 hours. I am an extremely fast reader and was speeding through dialogue and it was several hours before I even reached act 2 where I feel like the true game really begins. I feel like just reading through all the H-scenes might take you an hour. I encountered one grammatical error and zero bugs or graphical issues the entire time. Incredible level of polish that far exceeds studios with serious budgets.
Personally, I didn't like the H-scenes that much since they are very vanilla and I like much kinkier and extreme stuff, but the actual story, writing and power system elevates things a lot and kept me engaged for way longer than it would have otherwise. At the very least I wish there was more visible penetration shots or alternate dialogues for anal like we had with Alexa; for a game about totally dominating women you would think there would have been more anal and kinky stuff. Coding the alternate dialogue wouldn't be a lot of work right? and with how much the penetration isn't shown, its a letdown to me every time. If I had the MC's power I know that I would be DEFILING these bitches. To give you an idea of my expectations, I was drawn to playing the game by the animation of Annie being hooked up to a milking machine. Also wish there were more post-creampie shots like with the mother/daughter who are selling the house (great scene btw); a lot of H-scenes lacked that cut to an angle of the girl dripping cum, ahegao, and spreading their ass which is a shame.
I'm only about 15 hours into the game so far so take my criticisms with a grain of salt because they might be totally irrelevant as the game progresses; unfortunately I am just not gonna progress further because its too vanilla for me considering the time investment required. I think if the H-scenes are someone's cup of tea then this would be the first H-game I would recommend them 10/10. If you ever make a kinkier game in the future I will be sure to buy it.
Also, Pixie is best girl. I wonder how much money you could make if you were selling a Pixie onahole.
I think really my biggest disappointment with this is the mc's power isn't really his and sadly he is completely human(One day I will find a werewolf mc or a human turned Eldritch of Lust). Had found some decent Incubi mc characters recently so i was hoping still on the search for the holy grail of mcs though. At the same time when you mentioned Eldritch I was hoping i had finally found one of these where your a budding Eldritch of Lust and you slowly accumulate power to become an Elder God of Lust. At the same time of the mind control VNS I have scene yours at least doesn't feel completely evil kind has World Tamer feel to it. Also if you add a way to join the Eldritch I would take it lol.Still good VN but my search for the holy Grail of VNS continues.
Actually there is an event in a city where you met a girl that has a boyfriend and a flat, and two girls (white and brunete) when you are compared to boyfriend of one of the two
the discord said it automatically transferred to the latest version when u update i would still copy the save file just in case (for Android it says it is not safe to delete the game u will lose ur saves)
pixel has a "human" form (the black hair green shirt) that i really don't know how to unlock even tho im in "end game" chapter 3 and i only want to know in which chapter im abble to unlock this form and in which update it was added (so i can read the development log)
A step by step ia not needed i Will try tô Discover by my self wen i have enough informations
Another question, so when it comes to Dhena's quest in act three, it says that I need access to the shops. The shops are past the church, and you can't get past the church, but in the leads tab it doesn't say that the content is unavailable. Am I missing something?
I just started the game and I was on a loop of the same first event. It went like this: I arrived, slept, Morgana quest (control on Pixie), then after 2 days of sleeping got up, get a call from gramps, Morgana quest (control on Pixie), 2 days of sleeping, another time Morgana quest (control on Pixie) and done. So at day 5 I've got 3 Morgana quests and also 3 artifact thorn and 3 (equal) beast leads. I don't know what triggered the loop only 3 times.
Scrolling down the comments and seeing positive reviews makes me happy for you Arc! You really deserve it with how well Corrupted Kingdom's story is!
Side Note: if I had to pick a favorite character that I currently can show affection and love to, I couldn't choose, they're all equally loveable! thats how well you made the story!
Thank you for the kind words! I really appreciate it :) Everyone's support throughout the entire development of CK has been so touching, honestly, I can't thank everyone enough for all the love they've shown!
Stuck on the bridge after doing the night chittering event, got lynx and everything but no idea how to progress past the bridge in order to get to the shops for the ingredients for lynx, any help would be appreciated
Hey! So I've reached the part where we are in the latest update, and I've unlocked the wandering merchant, delt with Maven, conquered everything I can, and am at a bottleneck with the church. From there, I can't seem to find any other ways to progress, I've checked every location and talked with every character, Kana is still knocked out, and I haven't found Lyx yet. Is there anyway to progress that I'm missing, or have I reached the end of what's currently released? Great game btw, one of the best I've seen!
To unlock Lyx you need to have Claire in the Manor. To get Claire, you need to have conquered the Bridge and the Apartments and then done the nighttime event on the Bridge (with the Chitterings).
Once you've conquered those two locations and done the Chitterings event, Claire will appear one night when you sleep. After that, Lyx will appear some time when you sleep and you will get a Lead. Follow the the lead to unlock Lyx, which in turn will unlock more events.
I think this is where I may be stuck but since I'm so far ahead, I don't want to start over. Maybe I'll just start at a certain point and just pay extra close attention.
Oh!! I see what I was doing wrong. There's two versions that pop up when you click launch game and I've been playing the wrong version. If you're stuck like I was, make sure you always choose the second option because that's the latest option
Hey i just got into this and have been playing for a few days and stumbled onto my first problem and wanted to ask if theres anyway to fix it? This doesn't let me go through chloe's route :-: (Im on the android version)
Welp, I’m gonna have to wipe my current progress. Hard to believe its been going for a couple years now. Sadly, I still cant get Emma out of her room. I did every side quest everyone told me to do but she seems to be bugging.
I’m gonna chalk it up to a saving issue. Gotta say, good having Kana back and whoa those naughty fairies at Lyx cottage.
The way Ren'py works is that there's no individual user bugs unless someone's been manually digging into the code and altering variables. If something's broken, it's broken for everyone.
To get Emma out of her room you need to have Claire in the Manor. Then simply go to Emma's door during the afternoon and watch the event. You have to do this a few times! Eventually she'll open the door.
If you have Claire, and you've seen the event at Emma's door multiple times, and you're stuck in some kind of loop, let me know exactly where you're looping and I'll dig into the code to see if something's gone screwy.
I have Claire, annoying little snot nosed blonde brat. I visited Emma multiple times for, gosh maybe a weeks worth “in game days”. Nothing, Emma would do her usual cute stammering for the MC to go away.
Now, I managed to get past it finally. Not sure how or why. But suddenly it just randomly started going through. It was nice to see the brats softer “sisterly” side.
And here I was worried I would have had to dump my save and restart fresh.
just curious, so far the graphics, story, everything really is great, and i'm really enjoying my playthrough. just wondering, is there any plans for voice acting, or "moan acting" with the girls during the cutscenes? clearly that'd be a process with getting voices and whatever the cost is, but i'm just curious :) really happy with everything else as i said though
I have been using the saves from the last couple years and on day 366 “in game days”. Total hours of play time os gonna be difficult to say since the updates and patches are somewhat constant. But maybe if you played from start to current patch end constantly and nonstop, maybe 2-3 weeks. Theres alot of content
On average, people are reporting around 40-50 hours. Much less if you skip through all the dialogue and don't look for the hidden scenes, and much more if you're trying to discover absolutely everything :)
I've already as the same question as you months ago, and this is the answer from developer you need: no. because it will be complicated to add the voice / moan sound effect from the beginning up to current content. His later project maybe have moaning sound.
ps: Sorry if anything I remember is not 100% exactly.
No voice/moan acting, since 1) the system isn't set up for it, and 2) I would need individual voice/moan files for every girl and that would be both extremely difficult to source and would bloat the game's filesize considerably, given how many girls there are in the game.
Next game probably, as I'll be designing it with that sort of thing in mind - and the character count will be much more under control ;)
I'm going to be shocked if you actually make another game and update that weekly, with sound files, but you should take breaks when you're exhausted!
Although I am waiting for more content and currently not enjoying what you recently release, which I'm really holding myself back to get even more invested in the story,
I bring fear that this might get cancelled or dropped due to you having stress or being overworked to provide updates, or people getting impatient or more demanding.
Like this so far is one of the biggest, ongoing and interesting-est (to me) visual novels so far, and I wanna be along waiting the updates to the very end, and even wait for your next game whenever that comes out!
oh i totally get that, yeah that'd be so crazy to deal with lol also obviously it'd also be hard, but have you thought of hand picking a few scenes to sort of "re do" with sounds/moans? like a treat for people before christmas or something lol
I am impressed - i thought this was going to be a simple adventure game with simple mechanics and very little story...I WAS WRONG. the game play at first is simple but it builds up in layers that are well captivating to say the least. the only CON i can see is its not done... but there is several hours of game play. i have put in at lease 40hours before getting to chapter 3. the stories are enticing as well as the girls. i would like to see the addition of a petite Femboy but thats my personal opinion.
Femboys are always featured as a possibility in the monthly polls over on SubStar, but they're always way down at the bottom of the list (and they would be released as free DLC if they ever got enough votes, as I'm aware it's something not everyone enjoys).
FREE DLC, IF THAT WERE TO EXIST? Dude, you're both amazing, and insane, instead of profiting you seem to genuinely just want to appeal to the audience. Again, you're amazing.
Really did not expect this game to be as good as it is, seemed like a good fap from the images but I didn't expect a great story written in fully coherent english without any grammar- or spelling errors that I have noticed. I am currently approaching the end of the currently available content, so it seems like I will be sitting and impatiently waiting for updates to a porn game that I thought could keep me occupied for like a night or two.
New updates every two weeks, and I work hard to ensure that all save files are compatible with every new update (but make sure to save in your bedroom if you're worried - that's always a "safe" location). In the five years I've been working on the game, no update has ever broken user saves :)
I like the game alot but sometimes when I'm running the game it's stops responding in some sections like when you are in the bathroom with Chloe the game just stops responding is this a glitch in computer or is it the game if this ever happened to you please reply
If it's happening when movie files are supposed to play, then this sounds like a driver issue. If it happens more or less randomly then it could be a corrupted download.
Make sure that all your drivers are up to date and then fully power down your device (not restart! Full power down!) and turn it back on again. If that doesn't work, try redownloading the game and - if you're on PC - make sure to extract it to a fresh location.
Hey, I just wanted to let people know that when I was checking the download for malware and the likes on virustotal, I got the warning Trogan.Malware.300983.susgen from a company called Maxsecure which most people consider to be shady, I got this warning when I checked the game application itself, but when i checked all the other files I got no other warnings so it may just be a false positive, but I wanted to let the dev know so they could maybe look into it and to let the community know about this before downloading anything.
It's a false positive :) Generally speaking, anytime you get a single ping it's a false positive.
Also, pretty much all anti-virus suites are worse than useless (they provide single points of entry to black hats and create a lot of bloat) but Virustotal is ranked pretty low even by those standards (B or C tier). I'd strongly advise just keeping your Windows Defender updated and downloading Malwarebytes once a month for a general sweep.
Finally, just to put your mind at ease (and anyone else who reads this), here's a Reddit post (one among many, but do your own research!) that talks about this exact detection:
One of the commenters also remarks on the validity of "Maxsecure". Could be true or could be false, but from a brief sweep of the internet it seems like you should be more afraid of them than anything else :P
Thanks for bringing this to everyone's attention, but yes: false positive. And please, please, please everyone - delete these garbage anti-virus suites. You're making hackers' lives so much easier.
its all good, I just wanted to you and others be aware of it, i ran the test on virus total and yeah i was thinking it might of been a false positive and the security vendor maxsecure does look shady, though i do admit i dont understand why people felt the need to downvote the comment when i was just trying to let people know about something i found that should atleast be considered when downloading.
Hidden Voices appears to be broken for several characters in Act 2, with anyone not having a character paperdoll in act 3 having their talkChar value improperly updated. Ard becomes cmDefaultBoy instead of cmArd, the Lamia in the mountains retains the value of cmRobinThink or Talk from the previous line written, etc. Most of the time this results in NPCs having the "I shouldn't try to read minds while speaking its too confusing" or "I can't hear their voice, its like its muffled somehow." lines.
As a result some scenes like with the Lamia are actually locked off an inaccessible, while other scenes may still advance but the player won't be able to get the necessary context they should from hearing the character's normal thoughts.
Most of the housemates work, but this seems to be because they are the ones who have paperdolls. I suspect assigning talkChar based on the base image for the paperdoll is the problem. You should probably check that file, or just use a switch statement that checks characters' display names instead of doing anything too clever with image files. In programming clever is only clever until your foot has a bullet in it.
Hidden Voices functions a lot better in v0.21.8, but I'm in the process of pushing an improved "mind reading" system and it's not fully transferred over yet. It will improve with each update. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Pixie, please quit gorging on ice cream, I'd like some for myself! YEESH, every time I get a thing of ice cream it's gone within 24 hours! Is Pixie stalking me for the ice cream...?
ANYWAY, keep up the good work! Just wondering, since you try and update every 2 weeks or so, how hard is it to squash all the bugs? I follow another dev who updates monthly and about half of the stuff is "fixed issue that got past me the last time".
Pixie informs me that she has no idea what you're talking about, she's not sneaking into your home at night, and that you should buy some mint choc chip next time.
Thanks for the kind words, and to answer your question: bug squashing can take anywhere from one day up to most of a week, depending on the number, severity and complexity. Fortunately a very generous player named Chris helps me out with tech support, but even so it can be a huge time commitment.
It's one reason why I like updating every two weeks - it means that players aren't left wrestling with bugs for too long (and anything game-breaking I always release a patched version within 12 hours) :)

hi, does anyone know if the game has a built-in Russian language or not?
Official translations woill have to wait until the game hits beta, but there is a Russian fan translation up on the CK Discord in the meantime :)

Thank you so much! For both the kind words and the support! They both mean a lot! :)
Happy birthday, Arcadean
Thank you! :)
We def need a guide for all the updates, been a while since I could play.
The quest page should tell you everything you need. Also the heart page at the bottom has a hint for special things related to that character
It doesn't, just says its the end until future updates for every character.
I can't open the game on Android it just crashes after a couple seconds it's been like this since the 0.21.6a version
Not sure why you got downvoted, it's a perfectly legitimate concern.

Might be a storage issue? Or you haven't turned on certain permissions on your phone? Could be any number of things, sorry.
If the Itch links just aren't working for you, try the links on SubStar - the versions are identical.
exist an official translate to spanish? or maybe are waiting end the final version,
No official translations until the game goes into beta, but there are Spanish fan translations available on the CK Discord :)

Merch will eventually be released for CK. I'll take the "Pixie onahole" suggestion under advisement ;)
I think really my biggest disappointment with this is the mc's power isn't really his and sadly he is completely human(One day I will find a werewolf mc or a human turned Eldritch of Lust).

Hahahahahhahaha you still think the MC is fully human. Lol, lmao.
There isn't? Not to my knowledge at least.
Actually there is an event in a city where you met a girl that has a boyfriend and a flat, and two girls (white and brunete) when you are compared to boyfriend of one of the two
I mean, considering how her fiancee tried to murder us within moments of seeing us it was probably a good thing she got away from him.
you know a game is good when you come for the seggs and stay bcuz you care about the characters involved, good job!
How do I update game? DO I have to buy the game again?
I'm using 21.5. looking to update to 21.8.
Never mind. Looks like I was selecting the new download of the game button. And not the patch download. (oops)
will it save progress if i dowload the lastest version and delete v0.21.7?
the discord said it automatically transferred to the latest version when u update i would still copy the save file just in case (for Android it says it is not safe to delete the game u will lose ur saves)
pixel has a "human" form (the black hair green shirt) that i really don't know how to unlock even tho im in "end game" chapter 3 and i only want to know in which chapter im abble to unlock this form and in which update it was added (so i can read the development log)
A step by step ia not needed i Will try tô Discover by my self wen i have enough informations
If I'm not mistaken, if you want to open it, you need to decorate your room with a Halloween theme
I have done that one time i Will try again
Yea that was It thanks
Any updates about Gwen? Like will she get better and be able to walk or will she remain the same?
有没有朋友提供中文翻译的最新版本，我玩的版本太低了。
我在discord粉丝翻译板块发了我自己做的翻译
Another question, so when it comes to Dhena's quest in act three, it says that I need access to the shops. The shops are past the church, and you can't get past the church, but in the leads tab it doesn't say that the content is unavailable. Am I missing something?
Get Claire in the Manor and then talk to her :)
It worked! Thank you for the reply!
Is it normal that I needed to redo 3 times the first quest of Morgana before going forward? That one of using "Control"
No, that shouldn't be happening. What exactly is causing you to loop and where is it occurring?
I just started the game and I was on a loop of the same first event. It went like this: I arrived, slept, Morgana quest (control on Pixie), then after 2 days of sleeping got up, get a call from gramps, Morgana quest (control on Pixie), 2 days of sleeping, another time Morgana quest (control on Pixie) and done. So at day 5 I've got 3 Morgana quests and also 3 artifact thorn and 3 (equal) beast leads. I don't know what triggered the loop only 3 times.
I'm having the same issue
Rock with tits and power against fate itself is best girl, somehow
Still cant meet lyx in act 3 after the night bridge event, slept for 4 weeks after conquering everything, still nothing
Try talking to emma first. Knock on her door.
Scrolling down the comments and seeing positive reviews makes me happy for you Arc! You really deserve it with how well Corrupted Kingdom's story is!
Side Note: if I had to pick a favorite character that I currently can show affection and love to, I couldn't choose, they're all equally loveable! thats how well you made the story!
Thank you for the kind words! I really appreciate it :) Everyone's support throughout the entire development of CK has been so touching, honestly, I can't thank everyone enough for all the love they've shown!
Stuck on the bridge after doing the night chittering event, got lynx and everything but no idea how to progress past the bridge in order to get to the shops for the ingredients for lynx, any help would be appreciated
Talk to Claire :)
I appreciate it, but that doesnt work, all Claire is doing is singing outside Emmas room you cant talk to her just listen in
Keep listening to their conversations.
Ahhhj appreciate it
10/10 in ranking "visual-novels-that- are-actually-well-done"
Thank you, I'm glad you're enjoying it! :)
(mild spoilers for latest content)
Hey! So I've reached the part where we are in the latest update, and I've unlocked the wandering merchant, delt with Maven, conquered everything I can, and am at a bottleneck with the church. From there, I can't seem to find any other ways to progress, I've checked every location and talked with every character, Kana is still knocked out, and I haven't found Lyx yet. Is there anyway to progress that I'm missing, or have I reached the end of what's currently released? Great game btw, one of the best I've seen!
Are you at version 21.5?
I’m on 21.7
Thanks for the kind words! :)
To unlock Lyx you need to have Claire in the Manor. To get Claire, you need to have conquered the Bridge and the Apartments and then done the nighttime event on the Bridge (with the Chitterings).
Once you've conquered those two locations and done the Chitterings event, Claire will appear one night when you sleep. After that, Lyx will appear some time when you sleep and you will get a Lead. Follow the the lead to unlock Lyx, which in turn will unlock more events.
Hope that helps!
Thanks for the help! I'll try just sleeping for a bit and see what happens.
I think this is where I may be stuck but since I'm so far ahead, I don't want to start over. Maybe I'll just start at a certain point and just pay extra close attention.
Oh!! I see what I was doing wrong. There's two versions that pop up when you click launch game and I've been playing the wrong version. If you're stuck like I was, make sure you always choose the second option because that's the latest option
Hey i just got into this and have been playing for a few days and stumbled onto my first problem and wanted to ask if theres anyway to fix it? This doesn't let me go through chloe's route :-: (Im on the android version)
ive got the same problem on pc
This should be fixed in v0.21.7. If not, it's definitely fixed in v0.21.8 which has just been released to the public :)
Welp, I’m gonna have to wipe my current progress. Hard to believe its been going for a couple years now. Sadly, I still cant get Emma out of her room. I did every side quest everyone told me to do but she seems to be bugging.
I’m gonna chalk it up to a saving issue. Gotta say, good having Kana back and whoa those naughty fairies at Lyx cottage.
Gotta ask, is Nyx gonna have a love scene?
The way Ren'py works is that there's no individual user bugs unless someone's been manually digging into the code and altering variables. If something's broken, it's broken for everyone.
To get Emma out of her room you need to have Claire in the Manor. Then simply go to Emma's door during the afternoon and watch the event. You have to do this a few times! Eventually she'll open the door.
If you have Claire, and you've seen the event at Emma's door multiple times, and you're stuck in some kind of loop, let me know exactly where you're looping and I'll dig into the code to see if something's gone screwy.
I have Claire, annoying little snot nosed blonde brat. I visited Emma multiple times for, gosh maybe a weeks worth “in game days”. Nothing, Emma would do her usual cute stammering for the MC to go away.
Now, I managed to get past it finally. Not sure how or why. But suddenly it just randomly started going through. It was nice to see the brats softer “sisterly” side.
And here I was worried I would have had to dump my save and restart fresh.
just curious, so far the graphics, story, everything really is great, and i'm really enjoying my playthrough. just wondering, is there any plans for voice acting, or "moan acting" with the girls during the cutscenes? clearly that'd be a process with getting voices and whatever the cost is, but i'm just curious :) really happy with everything else as i said though
how many hours of gaming session to complete the game?
no idea, i just got to act 2 i think? lol
I have been using the saves from the last couple years and on day 366 “in game days”. Total hours of play time os gonna be difficult to say since the updates and patches are somewhat constant. But maybe if you played from start to current patch end constantly and nonstop, maybe 2-3 weeks. Theres alot of content
I did the game in about 5 days
I did say maybe, what can I say? My time scale sucks. Course I tend to take my time and read each line lol
I'm cooped up in my apartment 24/7 so I was doing 18 hour days.
On average, people are reporting around 40-50 hours. Much less if you skip through all the dialogue and don't look for the hidden scenes, and much more if you're trying to discover absolutely everything :)
I've already as the same question as you months ago, and this is the answer from developer you need: no. because it will be complicated to add the voice / moan sound effect from the beginning up to current content. His later project maybe have moaning sound.
ps: Sorry if anything I remember is not 100% exactly.
No voice/moan acting, since 1) the system isn't set up for it, and 2) I would need individual voice/moan files for every girl and that would be both extremely difficult to source and would bloat the game's filesize considerably, given how many girls there are in the game.
Next game probably, as I'll be designing it with that sort of thing in mind - and the character count will be much more under control ;)
I'm going to be shocked if you actually make another game and update that weekly, with sound files, but you should take breaks when you're exhausted!
Although I am waiting for more content and currently not enjoying what you recently release, which I'm really holding myself back to get even more invested in the story,
I bring fear that this might get cancelled or dropped due to you having stress or being overworked to provide updates, or people getting impatient or more demanding.
Like this so far is one of the biggest, ongoing and interesting-est (to me) visual novels so far, and I wanna be along waiting the updates to the very end, and even wait for your next game whenever that comes out!
oh i totally get that, yeah that'd be so crazy to deal with lol also obviously it'd also be hard, but have you thought of hand picking a few scenes to sort of "re do" with sounds/moans? like a treat for people before christmas or something lol
I am impressed - i thought this was going to be a simple adventure game with simple mechanics and very little story...I WAS WRONG. the game play at first is simple but it builds up in layers that are well captivating to say the least. the only CON i can see is its not done... but there is several hours of game play. i have put in at lease 40hours before getting to chapter 3. the stories are enticing as well as the girls. i would like to see the addition of a petite Femboy but thats my personal opinion.
I absolutely agree! Needs some hot fembois to ensnare and enslave to keep the bed warm…. Uh among other things
Thanks, I'm glad you're enjoying it! :)
Femboys are always featured as a possibility in the monthly polls over on SubStar, but they're always way down at the bottom of the list (and they would be released as free DLC if they ever got enough votes, as I'm aware it's something not everyone enjoys).
FREE DLC, IF THAT WERE TO EXIST? Dude, you're both amazing, and insane, instead of profiting you seem to genuinely just want to appeal to the audience. Again, you're amazing.
Really did not expect this game to be as good as it is, seemed like a good fap from the images but I didn't expect a great story written in fully coherent english without any grammar- or spelling errors that I have noticed. I am currently approaching the end of the currently available content, so it seems like I will be sitting and impatiently waiting for updates to a porn game that I thought could keep me occupied for like a night or two.
10/10, I hope updates don't break saves.
Thank you for the high praise!
New updates every two weeks, and I work hard to ensure that all save files are compatible with every new update (but make sure to save in your bedroom if you're worried - that's always a "safe" location). In the five years I've been working on the game, no update has ever broken user saves :)
I like the game alot but sometimes when I'm running the game it's stops responding in some sections like when you are in the bathroom with Chloe the game just stops responding is this a glitch in computer or is it the game if this ever happened to you please reply
If it's happening when movie files are supposed to play, then this sounds like a driver issue. If it happens more or less randomly then it could be a corrupted download.
Make sure that all your drivers are up to date and then fully power down your device (not restart! Full power down!) and turn it back on again. If that doesn't work, try redownloading the game and - if you're on PC - make sure to extract it to a fresh location.
Hey, I just wanted to let people know that when I was checking the download for malware and the likes on virustotal, I got the warning Trogan.Malware.300983.susgen from a company called Maxsecure which most people consider to be shady, I got this warning when I checked the game application itself, but when i checked all the other files I got no other warnings so it may just be a false positive, but I wanted to let the dev know so they could maybe look into it and to let the community know about this before downloading anything.
It's a false positive :) Generally speaking, anytime you get a single ping it's a false positive.
Also, pretty much all anti-virus suites are worse than useless (they provide single points of entry to black hats and create a lot of bloat) but Virustotal is ranked pretty low even by those standards (B or C tier). I'd strongly advise just keeping your Windows Defender updated and downloading Malwarebytes once a month for a general sweep.
Finally, just to put your mind at ease (and anyone else who reads this), here's a Reddit post (one among many, but do your own research!) that talks about this exact detection:
https://www.reddit.com/r/antivirus/comments/wlkud8/trojanmalware300983susgen_fal...
One of the commenters also remarks on the validity of "Maxsecure". Could be true or could be false, but from a brief sweep of the internet it seems like you should be more afraid of them than anything else :P
Thanks for bringing this to everyone's attention, but yes: false positive. And please, please, please everyone - delete these garbage anti-virus suites. You're making hackers' lives so much easier.
its all good, I just wanted to you and others be aware of it, i ran the test on virus total and yeah i was thinking it might of been a false positive and the security vendor maxsecure does look shady, though i do admit i dont understand why people felt the need to downvote the comment when i was just trying to let people know about something i found that should atleast be considered when downloading.
Hidden Voices appears to be broken for several characters in Act 2, with anyone not having a character paperdoll in act 3 having their talkChar value improperly updated. Ard becomes cmDefaultBoy instead of cmArd, the Lamia in the mountains retains the value of cmRobinThink or Talk from the previous line written, etc. Most of the time this results in NPCs having the "I shouldn't try to read minds while speaking its too confusing" or "I can't hear their voice, its like its muffled somehow." lines.
As a result some scenes like with the Lamia are actually locked off an inaccessible, while other scenes may still advance but the player won't be able to get the necessary context they should from hearing the character's normal thoughts.
Most of the housemates work, but this seems to be because they are the ones who have paperdolls. I suspect assigning talkChar based on the base image for the paperdoll is the problem. You should probably check that file, or just use a switch statement that checks characters' display names instead of doing anything too clever with image files. In programming clever is only clever until your foot has a bullet in it.
Hidden Voices functions a lot better in v0.21.8, but I'm in the process of pushing an improved "mind reading" system and it's not fully transferred over yet. It will improve with each update. Sorry for the inconvenience!
I know that this has probably been answered before, but theres a LOT of comments so i dont feel like sifting through them all...
What if I, maybe, MAYHAPS... forgot one of my kids names?
Go to the daycare and click on "registry" - it will list all the names of allt he kids, underneath their mother's name :)
ahhh, lol thanks :)
Pixie, please quit gorging on ice cream, I'd like some for myself! YEESH, every time I get a thing of ice cream it's gone within 24 hours! Is Pixie stalking me for the ice cream...?
ANYWAY, keep up the good work! Just wondering, since you try and update every 2 weeks or so, how hard is it to squash all the bugs? I follow another dev who updates monthly and about half of the stuff is "fixed issue that got past me the last time".
Pixie informs me that she has no idea what you're talking about, she's not sneaking into your home at night, and that you should buy some mint choc chip next time.
Thanks for the kind words, and to answer your question: bug squashing can take anywhere from one day up to most of a week, depending on the number, severity and complexity. Fortunately a very generous player named Chris helps me out with tech support, but even so it can be a huge time commitment.
It's one reason why I like updating every two weeks - it means that players aren't left wrestling with bugs for too long (and anything game-breaking I always release a patched version within 12 hours) :)
