lol Yeah that's nuts! But you'd want to have waited anyway, since the Renpy redux version will go live in the near future.

Yeah I redid all of the art, rewrote parts of it, added I think it's 16 new bad ends to this first release. And it now will have a full working game mode. So it's pretty awesome!
Do the rewrites include any expansions? The content overall is great, but the bad ends in the later parts (especially in the vampire tunnels) felt a little lackluster compared to the writing in the other areas. Not that they were bad, just like the received less attention than previous areas. Maybe because there were so many in the vampire area, ha.

Congrats on getting this one onto steam. I just had it show up on my main feed store page.
Hey there Anax, I played the original a while back and really enjoyed it. Was there ever a bad ending featuring the blue skinned ancient vampire lady from that later part of the vampire section in the redux? Just now finding out about the reboot version.
Gotta say some of your scenes are really rock solid. I especially love the one with the Lake Lady Spirit that really took a liking to the heroine to the point that she tries to take her as her own twice. Seduction>Death>Rebirth>Immortality.
A bit morbid but i like it a lot. Would really appreciate it if those scenes were available in the game files in a good resolution where we can enjoy them.
576x576 resolution is very low. :/
P.S. You ever considered willing Bad Ends? For example the Rusalka instead of hypnotizing the character, our character states to her that she willingly wants to become one. The rusalka being pleased that she will get a willing sister by her side. Would be a good mechanic to see the "Bad Ends" this way instead of going into the Menu. A slight change of dialogue, a little more added will be all that is needed.

bobi121 - I'll break it down as you appear to be a new fan. First of all, I am glad you enjoyed it! This is a "first draft", so to speak, and was made several years ago. The updated Redux just launched last month and I will bring it here for free, as usual, once the next release hits my patreon. After this game was finished in Twine, I was approached by a fan that was willing to help me with programming in Renpy, and so this is being redone to work/feel like Giggle Night.
One thing that is different is that my skill at rendering is WAY better than years ago, so I have rerendered almost every scene. The resolution is also different, now in "cinema" aspect, so it matches what a theatre shows (like when you see the black bars at the top and bottom when some things are shown on TV). So much better resolution.
As far as your postscript goes, no, I never make willing things, because it turns me off. I am a corruption content creator, so without mind rape or physical rape turning someone evil against their will, I cannot get aroused, so I never make willing scenes really (maybe if a story itself has to have it but not on any sexy stuff). For me the logical tautology of mind control, UNWILLING + FORCED CORRUPTION = WILLING PAWN (think Dracula movies), is what is hot. So, I don't want you to get your hopes up, but there will not be willing content as canonically, none of the protagonists want that, even if they want it.
That said, there are a few protagonists that DO have corruption fetishes in the novels, and even on the old twine ones, we see the player able to make some noncanonical choices doing things because their fetish compels them (because for example in Slugs and Bugs: Invasion, if aliens like my infectulons did invade Earth, I'd be doing everything possible to trick people into getting infected or try to help the aliens infect the humans as much as possible) so Justine can make some choices like that, we will see even more of it in the redux in Renpy someday when I can remake it all. BUT, these type situations make up a fraction of content across what will be 14 novels total for the story arc.
Anyway, glad you enjoyed this old D:BB version, and I think you'll really enjoy the one that more closely aligns to my imagination than back in these old Twine days.

Being autistic I tend to want to over explain rather than to leave anything misunderstood lol
Idk if you will reply to this, but.. so Ive played the full game. I liked it (sbc). a personal opinion of mine is to inlcude more tiers, i knw im expecting a lot especially since its a headdache coding all of this.. but id also love to see them corrupt even more slowly, some betrayal and stuff rather than openly admitting as soon as they reach t3. and make some really hard to corrupt, like eve raises the stakes. finally, a personal opinion of mine is after we completed the corruption, id love an option where i can enjoy them as normal people rather than a bald insect with no head.. again, its personal, so ....
i really appreciate the work you did on this tho. thank you very much. i really liked the game and id love to try similar ones
