Overview:
“Innocence isn’t lost—it’s unraveled.”
In Ashes of Purity, you play as Tyler, a confident outsider whose unexpected arrival disrupts the balance of a quiet, conservative household. Though he doesn’t live under the same roof, his growing influence seeps into their daily lives—through words, gestures, and decisions that seem harmless at first.
Each member of the family hides unspoken desires and insecurities. Tyler’s role is not to destroy—but to reshape, slowly and deliberately, what they believe to be true about themselves and each other.​

Finally, a game where the protagonist doesn't have to be the sissy, but instead feminizes someone else. (y)


Girl: "Ew, pervert! Did you just get a boner... Can't you control that thing?!"
MC: "I do not command him, I'm simply his HUMBLE GUIDE."

I'm following this thread and open to all feedback or bug reports.

The game is free and always will be.
If you'd like to support development, you can join my Patreon for early access (up to 10 days before public release) and test builds — and maybe soon on SubscribeStar as well.

Thanks for playing!

Like, before you continue with this go through your script and delete all these weird stage directions in front of 80% of your dialogue, what even is that? This is not how writing works. Either relay what you want to say through dialogue alone, make your renders help you or use narration. Don't just put (IT'S MEANT THIS WAY) before every single line.

Since this is more like a psychological novel, I believe that capturing the characters' moment-to-moment emotions is important. It would be difficult to visually convey every specific emotion in all dialogues. For example, in the example you gave, to visually express both pleasure and guilt at the same time, I would have to spend four times as long on the render compared to usual. Still, I’ll work on finding another way to express these emotions through dialogue instead. Thank you for your suggestion.

So every other game before you was wrong by not using this technique? Your game is the first ever where somebody figured out that you need to put bracket instructions before sentences?

You're supposed to capture your character's moment to moment emotions through dialogue and narration, not weird stage directions. Like it's not even that much extra work. Nobody does 5 renders per sentence to display the incredibly complex and surely deep emotions in every line. You just write it out. But "(Cool)" isn't it.

It's pretty obvious that you are new at writing because half of your lines already kind of express what your putting in brackets. And for the other half you should just make some narration lines instead.

Let's practice. We'll start with the very first line the MC says.

The sun shines brightly on a tranquil summer afternoon.
Ella, Lily's landlady, lies on her chaise longue by the poolside,
basking in its warmth.
She tries hard to maintain her composure as she watches Tyler arrive at their house.

I actually don't know what (Cool) is supposed to mean, is it like he's "chill" or is it like he's cold and unemotional? I don't know, because you didn't write it out and used some weird stage direction and assumed I would get what that means.

Why don't you spend the extra minute and just write a narration line before the dialogue if you think that you need it to convey the mood and your meaning? Let's try that now.

The sun shines brightly on a tranquil summer afternoon.
Ella, Lily's landlady, lies on her chaise longue by the poolside,
basking in its warmth.
She tries hard to maintain her composure as she watches Tyler arrive at their house.
Tyler strolls up to her as if he owns the place, giving her a lecherous look.

Tyler: Hey, Ella. Ready to do some gardening?

Again, I don't know if that matches what you're going for, because your writing doesn't tell me what you're going for. But do it more like this and less (Cool).

You're being way too aggressive, my friend. Try being a bit more cool and laid-back. Trust me, life would be pretty rough for someone who goes around acting like that.

I hate playing with set names, so I put in URM to rename Tyler and could no longer save. Got the typical Ren'Py error with "rollback" or "ignore" options. Deleted URM and still had the problem. Idk if you can somehow fix compatibility with URM... that seems hard (Idk how to code), so I think you should just make it so we can rename Tyler.

Thank you for your feedback. I can add the option to rename characters in the settings. Additionally, I have no objections to the use of URM. If I find an efficient way to implement this support, it may be included in the next update.
