Proper scene recollections can be a massive pain to implement, this is really good news. Keep up the good work as usual MKRU! Your weekly reports on F95 are greatly appreciated - just wanted to let you know. And, of course, have a nice vacation. You've definitely earned it.

Crimson Veil's one of the most unique games I've played to date, and being struck with CYOA-book nostalgia (many of which were vampire-themed!) probably makes me biased. Still, all the work you put into it really shows the larger it grows. Props on the extensive testing and planning ahead - many developers could learn from that.

You're very punctual with weekly updates. Not many devs can do that (or at all). :)

I haven't been following the game for very long so I don't know what the long term plans are. When you talking about finishing up the game, do you mean just the main storyline? I'm asking if vampire storyline will ever be finished. Thanks.

They've mentioned that they plan on continuing to work on the vampire storyline after the main storyline is finished. So when they say "finishing the game" they just mean "making the game playable from beginning to end". I think they even indicated that they may continue adding side missions to the main story, but I may have jumped to conclusions there.

That's also my take on it. As far as I can tell, there have been quite a bunch of contracts and side missions, and that's not even counting every single bad end scene (mentioned in MKRU's latest weekly update) you can encounter. You can technically see all scenes by saving like crazy and keeping save archives, but many are influenced by prior choices too.

Really love that magical little thing with every single enemy having their own scene. It dates back to RPG Maker 95 and losing to zako going "how the fuck did I even win?" on you, only to get either a comedy gold or pixel art H-scene with dialogue afterwards before the game over/auto-revival/back to last save point. It *really* increases playability (as well as replay value in some cases) by a damn lot.

With modern engines, RPG Maker is much more lenient so you can also add absurdly high resolution pictures and even full movies. (I still prefer the good old pixel art thing but hey, old people like old people things. :sneaky:)

where is it possible to sell gems which i got as a loot ?
You can upgrade your equipment with gems or sell them in any shop with the "sell" option. I highly recommend keeping them, though they can occasionally break saves if the core engine or upgrade plugin is modified (MKRU provides fresh saves each time, though, as well as a complete walkthrough).

I'm more of a gem hoarder since I never actually upgraded anything, but they provide awesome stat boosts. If you're addicted to laurels and casino gambling, though, maybe you don't need that.

Would you be up for expanding the genevieve reward scene at the end of her quest to me it's way too short for what you go through to get it.

Possibly. I’m going to be updating a lot of things in that vampire route once this current update I’m working on is out.

Will the planned game over gallery be availiable from the start, or will it be a secret room type deal?
