As someone whose friend's group has always been 50% male/female since I was 15 and all of us are still virgins (and we all love to joke and jokingly complain about it) I wish to strongly disagree.You could have actual mechanics, gameplay, builds - a world where sex was just something that happened, because no shit a bunch of horny teenagers are gonna be banging like monkeys.
Sorry, out of wishes today. Can't grant that one.As someone whose friend's group has always been 50% male/female since I was 15 and all of us are still virgins (and we all love to joke and jokingly complain about it) I wish to strongly disagree.
??? I don't understand.Sorry, out of wishes today. Can't grant that one.
Well you see you said you wished to disagree and so... you know what nevermind it's not as funny when you have to explain it.??? I don't understand.
Sorry, I have autism and I am German. I am engineered to not understand humor. Thanks for explaining it though.Well you see you said you wished to disagree and so... you know what nevermind it's not as funny when you have to explain it.
MA Girl need some more scenes and love. but this will do for now.Actually a pretty decent week this time around! Metatron got a pretty sizable lore dump conversation about angel fitness that somehow segued into angel body types and her rating their hugging abilities. It's just the right mix of dangerous implications and Metatron being a dork, I had too much fun with that.
She is Preggo. I was wondering will their be pregnancy latter down or at the end of the story.Also, have very cute fanart of mommy Aspasia by the ever-talented Nor!
We have too many martial artist girls LOL, but yes, all of them will be getting more.MA Girl need some more scenes and love. but this will do for now.

Glad to hear you enjoyed!I really enjoyed the update the deepwoods final is great though my op instant stacking build is a lot weaker with the channel nerfs the final fight was still good fun.
with aether getting a rework any plans for a nether one too?
Huh, I thought they'd get along like gasoline and a house fire. Then again, if my context clues aren't too rusty, I think I may be right since they sound just about as dangerous.Ashley gets a new conversation with Maya as oil and water mix into a big fucking problem.
I'm looking forward to that hopefully with expended nether magic Ashely can be a bit stronger she is my favorite character but feels a little weakWe have too many martial artist girls LOL, but yes, all of them will be getting more.

Yes, Nether is due for a massive rework, the problem is that the succs don't know anything about 'real' Nether magic or its versatility. Just some basic attacks. The true Nether teacher isn't too far off, and that's probably when it'll get split into its proper qliphoth similar to Aether.
Focus on Aspasia? Finally the silver slime babe will get some love.6/14 Progress Update
Had a lot come up over the last week or two, but I've been plugging away at the next update! Deepwoods finale is well under way, though I definitely underestimated the amount of work it would take to turn it into a proper finale to the first arc.
Also got more music, monsters, and other comms/free use content sorted for this update and some of the stuff I want to d post-finale to encourage revisiting the deepwoods as it heals.
More scenes, atm focusing on Sarah/Aspasia. Almost forgot how much Aspasia actually needed, honestly, and Sarah is in dire need of more meaningful affection scenes as well. Thankfully, both are actually going quite well, which I confess feels pretty damn good after not having much luck with Aspasia previously.
I *could* pull an update together in a few days and release, but frankly I don't think it would live up to the hype, or really respect the decisions people made along the way (how you handled hobs in Expanse, what you told Selendis, how you handled Svyatibor, and what you do with Mara). Already kinda ran into that with the Ina meeting scene, ended up dropping some of my original ideas. Aaaaand I kinda don't want to pull a ME3 here.
So. Since I kinda wanted to do the next update around the end of the month anyways, I'm considering pushing this update's release date back to around then - let's say the 28th-29th - to focus on polishing the forest and expanding Aspasia. Maybe see if I can fit in an extra CG or two; Ashley, Amnelis, and Rosalyn are all in the running. Open to feedback tho.
------
Since I uhhh missed two extra updates here, I'll briefly summarize them; a bunch of new traits (mostly healing-focused), major update to Aether magic that completely revamped Chesed and fleshed out some of the other sefirot, and more character scenes - Metatron martial art starting is probably the most relevant.
So as usual, it's never quite as fast as I'd like, but should be a sizable update when it's done!
Ooo that update looks good! Didn't know this game was on Steam. Gonna buy it asap.View attachment 2743057
Divine Dawn 0.26 is finally done! Before we get to the changelog, I would like to thank you all for being so patient, and I hope that the sheer volume of new stuff will be well worth the wait!
I'd also like to thank everyone who helped beta test the update; there are probably still some typos and bugs, but the vast majority have been found despite many major backend changes. Too many people contributed for my senile old brain to keep track, but special shoutouts to Dunnask, Kronos, Grim, and Nobody for each sending in dozens or even hundreds of reports and suggestions over the last two months.
Now, the changelog;
Since 0.26 is now out for supporters/buyers, 0.25 is now free for everyone! It's not quite as chonky, but sets up Sarah romance and more. You can download it for free on itch/patreon or directly from this mega link.
- A new area, the Deepwoods Heart. Chock full of plot, new art, and music, it will be a true test of your your abilities and your beliefs, with heavily divergent endings depending on your final choices.
- Sarah gets a wholesome new CG and sex scene (night) as well as another talk (evening), both requiring high affection.
- Celica gets a new Affection 12 scene pushing the relationship forward, as well as a shared hangout with Sam (evening).
- Metatron gets a new conversation that starts off focused on abs and eventually segues into massive spoilers about exactly how thicc or bricc various angels are. Trust me, it's relevant to the plot.
- Aspasia gets a new 6 Trust scene as your bond with her begins to grow and she gets a little bit snarkier.
- Ashley gets a new conversation with Maya as oil and water mix into a big fucking problem. She also gets a followup conversation discussing her worldview.
- Trait and now Ability dictionaries exist in the right-click menus, with better use of icons and separation to make 'em a bit easier to peruse. Hopefully helps for making new builds.
- Your channels and reactions now display on the left when active, so you know what you have going on at a glance.
- Chesed completely revamped into 7 new spells, while Malkuth got quite a few spellsword-oriented spells as well. Binah and Geburah got a few new spells apiece.
- Cryomancy and Malkuth have new spells that automatically follow up melee attacks with a minor magical strike, to try to widen spell's options.
- For some godawful reason a lot of active Charisma abilities didn't actually let you master them, which is now fixed.
- A metric assload of new traits; Charisma gets a bunch that let you buff your allies passively, while healing magic (mostly Aether and Water) get a variety of specialized as well as generalized traits. Pyromancy got some love as well.
- The Athame weapon gained several new elemental skills and traits, hopefully making it a strong option for a more dexterity-focused spellsword rather than a stat stick. Oh, and you can bleed yourself horribly for a short magic buff.
- New stat icons! Also rearranged the display a bit. No functional changes.
- Several existing characters now have new music; Maya's default, Sarah during her lewd scene, etc.
- Several new themes for the Heart; there's a lot of new boss music to say the least!
- Minor channel balancing; each active channel increases the activation cost of the next. More thorough work will be done with them when I revisit the mana system, this is somewhat experimental.
- I know everyone hates the 'assorted bugfixes' thing every damn changelog has but bruh I'm not even going to try to type them out, there are hundreds. Shoutout to everyone who reported them!
0.25 Changelog;

It's a mixed bag, going in a good direction. Mostly. Good for whom'st is another question.Huh, I thought they'd get along like gasoline and a house fire. Then again, if my context clues aren't too rusty, I think I may be right since they sound just about as dangerous.
Akem Manah is also there to help her. She'll continue getting better~I'm looking forward to that hopefully with expended nether magic Ashely can be a bit stronger she is my favorite character but feels a little weak
Ehhhhhhh... it's not major plot spoilers, just minor world lore spoilers, so alright.Can you give at least small insight on what arcane magic in your lore is. I just really like your ideas and can't wait to see new magical arts
Yep - gonna try to do a lot more with her soon now that I'm getting the hang of her. For how excited I am for her long-term, getting her started has been a bear.Focus on Aspasia? Finally the silver slime babe will get some love.
Yep, just came to Steam about two months ago, this is the first update for Steam users. Thank you so much for the support, I hope you enjoy the new stuff!Ooo that update looks good! Didn't know this game was on Steam. Gonna buy it asap.![]()
