About showing MC's hands - yeah, I kinda wavered on this one, largely because it was hard showing the hands touching the girls without it looking bizarre (there's no forced perspective option in the software I use, so I have to get imaginative). But no hands looks just as weird, so it's something I'll be working on.
No FoV or zoom option? Wow, that sucks. I've not used the Illusion games (I think that's what you're using, right?) myself, but that is surprising to hear. Even Quake 3 games from 20 years ago had that.
Pixie - the slutty outfits will be added in as your relationship with Pixie grows. So who knows? A slutty schoolgirl variant outfit might yet make an appearance!
Looking forward to it! I was like
"Hmm, what's this shop?"
"Ooh, a schoolgirl outfit for Pixie!"
"Try this on, Pixie!"
"Huh. I prefer her regular outfit."
Lily - Oh, plenty of "manhandling" opportunities with her!
Nice. I'm sure it will be more challenging to do good manhandling compared to just having MC tell her what pose to take, but it should be worth it.
Emma's tougher than she looks... ;)
You mean physically or mentally? Because in our short interaction with her, she seemed on the verge of running off in tears.
That being said, I hadn't considered using the Leads themselves as "No More Content" markers - and I really like that idea! Clean, simple, and doesn't require hundreds of lines of extra code. So that system will be in place from the next update on. Thanks for the idea!
It was Emma's lead that gave me the idea. The Beast's one is pretty clearly a long-term goal, but Emma's lead is telling you "go to the college" and there's nothing there yet. That's obviously confused a lot of people based on the thread so far.

I know, it sucks! No FOV options at all, no special lense or camera options and the "zoom" is basically "move the camera closer." So yeah, POV stuff is awkward unless you muck around with positioning and sizing a lot. Oh well, mustn't grumble! It's way better than anything I could do from scratch!

No more Emma spoiler hints! You will get no more information from me! Do your worst!

Well thanks for the thought - the more I fiddle with the code in my head, the more I like it :)

I still hold onto the idea that Emma is actually the Doom Slayer.
Gasp! I actually have the Doom Slayer armour as a clothing file! So... tempted... to make it... an Emma outfit option...

Am I the only one to find a "Long live the princess" vibe to this game ?
It's quite nice btw !
Thanks! And hey, if you want to draw comparisons to such a good game, I'm happy with that :p
Yep - very similar in its tone. I think mainly because of the Pixie ... same attitude. And it has leads and powers too.

And one thing ... the first action you have to do after the tutorial is to skip time. Thats never good ... feels just bad. On Day 5/6 the same in the morning. Nothing to do or interact and no hint how to progress. I assume its the end of the current build? ... But why unlock the college when we cant do anything there?

All in all the look is nice - whats the name of the font for the names? I like it ^^

I am not a big fan of the models, but the animation look good. The models are all way to chibi- or loli-ish. I had a look into the software a few days ago, you can do more mature stuff to some degree at least. Currently it feels more like all the girls are 9-12 years old and had a huge breast surgery already. The landlady ... she looks like a 12 year old at best...and she is supposed to be as old as the MCs mother?

.... and I liked the internet pun ^^

No in depth review from me, I like what I see so far in game, looks like a lot of stuff that I was going to say has already been covered, and addressed. Looks like at least one of the fetishes should be Exhibitionism, which makes me happy, but even if it wasn't I'd probably still keep my eyes on this game.

Keep up the good work.

Also another thing I forgot to mention; in Pixie's scene on the laptop, her dialog makes me think of something you don't get enough of IMO, which is when girls who have been mind controlled know they have been controlled but - because they have been controlled - they don't care. Maybe even think it's hot that you mind controlled them. Most games I can think of go with them being oblivious to the fact they are under the control of the player. Is this something we're going to see with Pixie?

I disagree with the more mature models, the 3D models most people use in my opinion, are garbage and would make me vomit in disgust. The reason I jumped on this game was because the models were appealing to me.

So don't you change those models, because I got this paddle ready.

I agree that the first action being a "skip time" thing isn't good - I'll be plugging in a lot more events and interactive scenes over the coming weeks which will fill the awkward hole. As well as adding a "No More Content" indicator, which will be in the next update (this Sunday).

Font is called "Magnificent" and is created by the talented !

Glad you liked the pun! I wasn't sure if I should put it in, but I just couldn't resist :p

In-depth reviews are super-helpful, but even smaller comments mean a lot to me, so thanks for taking the time to write something :) Exhibitionism is definitely going to be one of the included kinks (linked to the "naked" outfits that all the girls will be getting), so I hope you enjoy it. Thanks for the kind words!

Is this something we're going to see with Pixie?
Absolutely! The Control power doesn't erase memories, it just makes people accept what happened in a dreamy sort of way. So if the girl you use it on knows that "Control" is a thing, they'll be aware of what you did to them. Which won't always work out well for the MC ;) In Pixie's case, though, it totally turns her on - the reasons, and consequences of which will be explored in future releases as your relationship with her grows.

And Pixie is going to have a lot more interaction in the future - as will all the girls, in fact. If you have anything specific you'd like to see, please let me know and if it fits in with my plans for her character I'll be happy to add it to my ToDo list.
Well hey, she can't make it too easy on you, can she? I mean, where's the fun in that? ;)
Don't have any specific kinks to ask for and yeah, too easy or too early is no fun at all. On the other hand too difficult, too little or too late isn't the best idea either is it? :)

I also agree about the models. The standard ones you see in most other games we can see in most other games. Yours are different. Keep it that way!

Since you're asking I may as well suggest this too, something I've seen a few times is the MC introducing a character like Pixie (who has a different background) to the modern world. Seeing her gradually go from what Morgana told her about the internet to realising what it's really about and seeing how amazing it is could be cute and funny. Like each time you use the net she could gradually go from being scared and telling you not to risk it, not wanting you to show her it, to becoming curious and eventually liking it. I think it might make a fun non-sexual arc (at least non-sexual until she discovers porn). Also I'm sure it would be very cute to see her trying to operate a laptop at her size.

Very true! The trick is to find the perfect middle ground. Don't worry, I don't plan on months of blue-balling updates ;)

Oh, I like that idea! Pixie's obliviousness to the modern world is fun to write, but I really like the idea of her slowly learning, and turning from being oblivious or terrified to being fascinated by it. I even have a few poses that might work really well for "Pixie typing on laptop" animated scene(s). Her discovery of D/s porn would be a revelation! ;)

Thanks for the suggestion! That one is definitely being added to Pixie's character arc file.

-----------------------

This next part is kind of an announcement, but I didn't want to make a separate post (because I know mods tend to hate double posts): Corrupted Kingdoms now has an official Android build!

Thanks entirely to SLim_Games (ps. how do you tag people in posts? Help! I suck!) and their unflagging aid, and despite my best efforts at self-sabotage, the Android build is up and running! So from now on I'll be releasing Android updates alongside the Windows, Linux and Mac updates. Yay!

i must say..i enjoyed it and will follow its progress...one thing i noticed in the thread is many comparing Pixie(Tiff) to Belle...if you pay attention and look beyond the snappy comments and general comedy surrounding..Belle chastises and treats her MC like crap..ya she wants sex from the MC..but she is bossy and mean about it all..Pixie(Tiff) on the other hand is happy in love ALL about the MC..she wants(it seems) nothing more than to be with him..she is the polar opposite of Belle..Belle is a Yandere Fae in the making..Pixie(Tiff) is a Waifu Fae :p both though..are kinky AF :D

Nice! When a girl doesn't understand something like that it's cute at first, but it gives me a strong desire to introduce her to the thing, and if that goes unrequited it can be frustrating. Introducing people to new things is really cool (especially cute girls - hey, I'm a guy, sue me).

So meta! She'd probably find it too vanilla...
Hey Arc do you have plans on how long each update will be? I'm interested in the game but as always i don't play before it's at least 70% completed or i would have to play and stop play and stop waiting for new update

Haha, no judgement - I agree! And thanks for letting me know how to tag users - I like to be able to credit people properly :)

Right now the updates are planned to come out weekly, and each one will contain ~20 minutes of content (hopefully more, but I don't want to over-promise and under-deliver). I appreciate you not wanting to play a game until it's 70%+ complete (I'm the same way with certain games), but Corrupted Kingdoms is going to be a 40+ hour game so even with weekly 20min updates I'm afraid you'll have a long time to wait until it hits the 70% mark!

(Although if by some miracle I start hitting Patreon goals, that timer will significantly speed up. Still, long time.)
