Ahah, I agree with you.

Unfortunately, one can only go so far. I've got little budget to work with and at one point, I have to put a stop to it one way or another.
Maybe if the Steam full release works enough, I'll revisit it, but I doubt it's gonna be the case.
Buy it on Steam and leave a review if you want more ahah ^^ (jk, do as your means allow you, but it's the same for me.)



Hey good day.

I'm liking the game so far (still very early in the story tho, but it looks very good so far) and wanted to say to the author (whom I think reads this forum) that you have done a very good job.

Also, 2 things:
1- Does the artist of the game have social media? (I would love to follow them if they post art).
2- Small bug (nothing to worry about but just in case). Sometimes, when a new character appears, their sprite gets invisible. Like, early in the story when the smuggler girl and one soldier enter the bridge, the soldier sprite appears for 1 millisecond, and then it becomes invisible (this gets solved by rolling back 1 message, so no big deal).

Anyway, very good job, the art is very good. I'm liking the story so far (I think it may have some branches, so I may replay it after finishing it).
Final note: I think this is your only game so I hope you can make a sequel or another game in the future if you want (I bet it would be cool as heck).

There are a couple artists I work with.
I rework and redraw a LOT of stuff myself, most sprites and CG.
But the other one I pretty much don't touch up, you'll find him here :


For the invisible sprites, it's a problem that has been brought up, I've tackled it and it will be removed next update.
And there's not real branches. The choices do impact stuff a bit. But there are no dramatic changes atm (and probably won't given the amount of work required).

I just tried on 1.4 and same issue from a save. I might try to start a new game and see what happens, but it would be a bit of a grind to replay everything, even with skip.
If you loaded from an existing save, then yeah, it's probably that, sorry. If you really want, I can provide you a save from where you're at.

Actually wasn't bad to skim. The newest version C I think works with a new save.

Can sadly only buy it on itch. As my country is a bitch about adult games.

Hey there Dev
Just wanna ask
got weird thing on NPC sprite thing, is it a bug? Where sometime the NPC sprite show split second than fuck off(all captain
girl not affected tho) like Vex on tohe base attack/xi plan and Miller squad because weird to see them show off for split second then just see background with their talking

Maybe because i have good PC after upgrade and on my old laptop never encounter that problem

Hey there, sorry, that comes from me. I dunno why, but all "simple" sprites with a single (or 3/4) textures needed to be reset each time they appear.
It's an after effect of changing sprite behaviour it seems.
I've already fixed it in the build I'm working on atm, but at this time, the sprites of SOME chars (for some arcane reason not all) do indeed "fuck off".
If you roll back, they come back.

So are we going to have resource gathering, scavaging, and becoming mercs? Cause honestly the last good space game Subverse and this has the potential of becoming a mainstay

Subverse raised 1.5M+ pounds.
I have a 100 bucks/month Patreon (which is more than I deserve given I barely update it) and raised 150 times less.

Unfortunately, that's not the game I can provide. The game mechanics will stay very limited.
I'm a lone shit dev (as I have 0 coding formation). The entire game is held together by 4 pieces of tape. I just don't have the scope to deliver something that even comes close.

You forgot that the creator of Subverse has been creating adult content for a long time, has a van-based setup, and has done commission work in the past. Getting this far just shows your talent. Hell, you even have your own details for each planet as well, so that takes time and thought on each one. Just saying you can succeed. Combat is a bit jankey, for me, but it's getting there. I'd suggest, and this in lore for the game, have missions where the rewards are resources. Either credits or material. But yeah its difficult doing it solo, but that's just shows that you're built different and this game is a worth purchase.

Dev I wanna let you know that I really enjoyed your game, it definitely deserves more popularity! Dialogues between mc and girls are really really good.
My advice to you is - change overview a little bit, at least mention how there's epic spaceship battles to be expected. 7th screenshot is definitely old and doesn't represent current state of the game. Also add "turn based combat" and "strategy" tags.
While playing I didn't encounter many bugs, there was few but nothing critical (stuff like main menu wouldn't load but I still could press esc and load game that way). While there was quite a few misspelled words or missing words sometimes, it did not bother me too much. But things from the spoiler below should be fixed.
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
I don't know what are plans for next update but I hope it's more battles, I really enjoyed them, and I wish there was more. Also correct me if I'm wrong but it seems like there is no consequences if you loose one minor ship in battle. Story just moves on and no one says a word.
Another thing that was slightly annoying is I reloaded game 3-4 specifically to take down Nimus's ship during our first encounter. And I managed to do so, but there's no special dialogue or anything like this. Later I understood that he's important for the story so now I understand why, but at least give some kind of reward to the players who manage to beat him.
Also, yet another thing that made me not reload game but start new playthrough just to check this, and I am a little disappointed. On my 2nd playthrough I intentionally ignored any offer from girls to spend time together, just to see if dialogue will be different that time when we sleep with Rachel for the first time. It was painful to listen to her saying how she was suffering watching mc fool around with other girls and I was really hoping that by ignoring other girls I'll unlock special branch of dialogue where she will not be ... well at least not that much ... hurt by mc.
