RPGM Branded to Fall [v0.3] [BaconSoap]

[Highland_Hunter]

After having found the Duke's Manor, at the end of the "meeting", the Duke made mention of having some "work" for Elora, and said to talk with one of his Maids .

The Manor, had only one "Maid", and three Cooks/Culinary Maids . . . none of which, would interact/speak, with Elora .

Is that content/job not, implemented/active, as yet in the game ???

The maid job isnt implemented yet but will be started in the next version.

The "Duke's Dinner Party" Location ???

Got the prompt for the event, but, the location was left-out, so I have no idea where to go to experience that event ???!

The Dukes House/location, (dinner party), should be added to the "Signposts" . . . or, make it an "instant teleport" !

Running all over the MAP trying to find that location is annoyingly frustrating !!!

EDIT ! : . . . Guess "Running" around the Map, was the "WAY" to go ! (though it took three times/searches), to finely "trip" the intro to the quest's location .

(Apparently the Edit Text was not big enough for some to notice .

The maid should say his manor is north of the main square and the barracks when she invites you, but I can add a more detailed description to the questlog as to its location to make it easier.

i have a question: is it possible to skip the prologue?

i have a question: is it possible to skip the prologue?

Normally yes, but there's a bug in the current version where the screen doesn't reactivate after picking the skip prologue option. This will be fixed in the next version, in the meantime you can skip the prologue by using any of the provided saves.

alright, thx for the answer

Hope there will be more Jen content in the next update? What's planned for her

Jen will be getting more content. Next up is the progression of her corruption as her "urges" come back and she continues to ask for Elora's help while pushing things further the more she gives in to the pleasure.

 

[mlurker]

having 2 protag characters and routes makes the game seems a little too ambitious for 1 dev. I recommend just having 1 protag.

 

[undeadking01]

nice game... i am looking forward

 

[blac]

Great game from what I've seen so far. The general style of the game is great. I have a couple of questions if you don't mind:


-Can you give a rough outline of how many corruption routes there are gonna be for both MCs and what type of content each route will focus on (without spoiling anything of course)?
-Will there be a submissive route with body modification like piercings and tattoos for the female mc further down the line (of course only after a route lock since making it optional would double the workload)?
-Will there be route where Elora ends up being the slave of Cam and he only uses her for his own goals?

Besides that I wish you a lot of success with the game going forward.

Glad you've enjoyed! Happy to answer any and all questions anytime.

-I'll address your first point last, as an outline of each will be big
-There 100% will be content, submissive and otherwise, involving tattoos, modifications and the like for Elora. As you say these will be past a "lock point" as otherwise it greatly increases the work load, but they will be there. Some will only be bad ends but others will be more in depth.
-Yep, I've not got the details 100% down for how I want to handle it, but I have plans this in the end game, mostly for a very corrupted cam of course.

Right, on to the outlines of the current planned routes, I'll put it in a spoiler tag for those not interested or who want to avoid any possible spoiler as there is no way to mention the content of some without light spoilers.

I am certain I have not fully listed things properly or I have missed stuff but heres a rough top of my head list which is also not as complete to avoid major spoilers. I also didn't include some of the more side routes like the modelling and waitress stuff for Elora.

having 2 protag characters and routes makes the game seems a little too ambitious for 1 dev. I recommend just having 1 protag.

The dual protag is a core part of what I want to make, yes it's ambitious, but I won't be dropping it. There are people who like each MC and to just suddenly drop all the content for one mid development (even this early still) feels disingenuous to those who support me and have already grown to be invested in those characters and their routes. Plus, I don't want to drop one of them. I enjoy making both and enjoy the dynamic the game has. I do very much appreciate the concern though.

Hey hey all,
Sorry for the delayed update this week, I thought I'd set it to auto release but evidently I had not XD.

The public release has been great, and looking at the polls hasn't made any major shift up in the results I talked about before so seems everyone's on the same page! I'm so happy to see how many people are enjoying the game and giving feedback, and we've even had the first instances of some of the more hidden secrets being found which is so fun to see!

As for the update, I've been working hard on it as usual and we're going to see some very fun content for a fair few of the routes start cropping up. I think Charlotte and Lady Redmane fans will enjoy this update for sure so far. As well as this I've been wanting to add more to the world with side quests and general lore and the living feeling of it. With this you can expect to find some extra cheeky bits of lore or information that might give hints for certain routes and what might be going on. Along side this, I've been working on making the spa actually worth spending money on (at least for more then seeing the character in a towel). This will be able to be expanded on in future versions as well to include some more spicier encounters there.

Irellia fans will also be happy with her making her reappearance in this next update, along with putting much more pressure on our main couple while offering some devil (or should I say demon) deals to each in order to try and... Well, I'll let you find out for yourselves what she might be cooking.

That's all for now, as I'm going straight back to working on more content. Thank you all so much for the support, and have an amazing week!

As for Charlotte, findom should be accurate to her too no ?

 

[Bromo]

never delved too much into findom
but isn't it "just" 'financial domination'?
like getting - whoever the opposite sex is - into spending money for you without sexual favors/reward?
I can see that you are spending money on the spa to meet her - but that will most likely always be with a scene
(even with just a repeat of an old one)

I don't see her asking for gold/currency and you get nothing in return (apart from the "I spend money on the waifu")
much less having a lot of content - not even talking about a whole route
...
as I said above, maybe I don't get the appeal of findom very much - but I don't think I see it work that well

I just found out that findom means financial domination all this time. Thanks man.

I just played through the available content of the v0.2, my first run is going to be an attempted Pure/Good run. Is purity run even possible and if yes, is the purity run only available if I refuse all sidequests, including both Jennifer and Elora forest exploration and Cam and Seren looking into the three people to find the Magic Tome, even if I refuse all of temptation options? As I understand the choices to decline the corruption or cheating choices for other characters aren't just so I would do multiple character routes in one run but also able to do Pure/Good Playthrough. If yes, then I like that and I think I'll continue to check out future updates.

I really liked Elora's refusal and her not putting up with Leandros and his attempted blackmail and turning it around on him on the second Leandros Event.

I tried to do Charlotte's Route for Cam, but it's bugged for me, as at first I refused the dinner scene with her and as I tried it later in the story, it progresses normally and after the dinner, as Cam left Jen's house I could only transition into different maps when I walked though the map exits, but Cam walks through everything else: the house, house doors, signposts, flower beds, and the rest. I can't interact with anything. Saving after and reloading doesn't fix it, retrying the event doesn't change it or fix it. I think it's because I refused Charlotte's initial proposal for the dinner, but I'm not sure. I'm providing my save file. Save 3 is before dinner, Save 4 is after dinner and bugged.

Also I'd like to ask about the items(the old axe, two blue orb pieces from the forest) that Cam or Elora picked up, will they play any role later or can they do something in v0.2 update already? Because I can pick them up, but did not find anything to do with them in v0.2. I've also picked up Rusty Key to open the fortress door in the west side of the forest and the Switch Stick in the dungeon of the forest's northen side, to activate a teleportation circle which gets me into a foresty map with a fairy, that teleports all across the map each time I interact with her, and nothing else changes. Can I do anything else in the dungeons(the north and the west ones) and the forest with the second fairy or are they only getting content later and I should not bother with them now? Also I cannot find Count Redmond after the dinner with him and Elora refusing to sit on his lap, to find another way for information about the Tome, the maid at the door says he's waiting in the dinner hall on the right, but I only servants with whom I can't interact? I'm guessing that part or talking with not implemented yet.

(Also you can 100% go down multiple routes at once, some jsut may EVENTUALLY reach a locked position with unique endings, but the aim is for most to be completable in unison and then all have effects on the ending and final choices.)

Also I'd like to ask about the items(the old axe, two blue orb pieces from the forest) that Cam or Elora picked up, will they play any role later or can they do something in v0.2 update already?

Pure runs are 100% possible, some side routes you will need to shut down like with Leandros as their route is aimed to corrupt the MC but other routes will have pure versions and the main story content certainly will. At the moment there is much more corruption content then pure as a lot of the pure will be scenes between Cam and Elora of a romantic and sexual nature and I wanted to spread out the content for other characters to start with. In the future there will be a date system for the two with many interactions, as well as unique pure quests and interactions, and of course endings and main story content. For example, you can continue with all of Jen's content to come to a pure, non corrupt conclusion by not engaging in the sexual scenes with her (not all implemented but the starting split for the corrupt and non corrupt version of her story is in).

Glad you liked Elora shutting Leandros down. I really wanted to emphasise the player choice there in effecting if Elora gives in to the worry and fear of if her anger wins out over it, and especially show if you don't give in to him El isn't just going to take this lying down.

That Charlotte route sounds like a bug. I think I'll have forgot to remove the through effect on Cam's movement when leaving meaning you can walk through everything but not interact with it on touch as you're always moving through it. I'll get that fixed now. Thanks for the spot and report.

For the items they do currently have uses. The axe can get you access to a secret area, and the blue orbs there are 3 of which give you access to a hidden area, puzzle and quest.

The rusted key and area behind it will hold more quest content and rewards in the future so for now its more like early exploration. There are a few hidden areas I've yet to add full rewards too as I plan on relating them to quests or items ive not implemented yet in 0.2.

Finally, the Duke Raymonds content ends after his dinner for the moment. El's maid work, Cam's viewing of his collection and alternative ways to get inside as Cam, will be coming in future versions (Some already in the next one).

Thank you for the quick reply and explanations. Could you explain where to find the the other two blue orb pieces if they are already in v0.2, I got the two pieces from the forest, the first one near the start during Jennefer's and Elora's Quest for finding the potion ingredients and the second one in the northen part of the forest? Also do I need to use the axe as an item by pressing the interact button on the vines in the eastern side of the forest or on something else? Lastly, is Fairy dust item's purpose to be sold or also to do something else?

There's only 3 orbs. Misspoke in the previous reply (edited it now)

As for the fairy dust, you can sell fairy items to the magic shop owner, but they will have other uses as consumables or for other quests/people down the line. So up to you if you want to hold onto them or not.

Thanks for where to find the 3rd Blue Orb shard and where to use it. Also solved the puzzle at the ruined gate and got the Fairy Blood, which I'm guessing is going to be a usable item in the future, and I can't sell it. I'll keep the Fairy Dust and see the future uses.
