Hi everyone,

just started, to check this game out and having a problem:

When i try to "Find work at the academy", i'm getting the message "You check in with an Eros Academy Administrator(....)" - but not only once, it varies from 2 up to approx. 10 times....and while i'm clicking it again and again, my Inhibition is rising (not always, as it seems, but sometimes) :unsure::cautious:

Is that a (known) bug? Couldn't find anything about it in this thread...

Playing the recent version and everything else, seems to be working fine.


btw: are there any console commands? :cool:

That's...sort of a bug? At least, if what's happening is what I think is happening. One of the jobs requires an inhibition check and, if you fail it when that job is assigned, you gain some inhibition. I had it set to kick you back up to before the random number generation so that you'd be reassigned another job. So...if you get supppppeeeerr unlucky and keep getting the same number... Well, anyway, I'm about to do the public release so I'll to change it so it kicks you back to the Hallway Menu instead, with a line about Faith not being comfortable with the job.

And...I suppose technically you could probably figure out console commands for it, to change the stats around. They're easy enough to change though that I don't bother even when I'm testing, so I can't give you a list of commands to use or anything :).

Alright! Finally time for the 2.3 Public Release...but first a small, slightly unhappy note:

As my Patrons already know (or should, given that I've made it clear in several posts over the last 4 months), I will be halting development on Eros Academy, at least for the foreseeable future. As much as I hate to do that with the game I've spent just under 2 years developing, there are three extremely good reasons for me doing so. If you don't care about the whys, just skin down to the links and release notes.

1) Hardware failures - My good graphics card that I use for rendering has been in the process of failing for the past two-three months. I've nursed it along via using a few tricks like baking it, but the truth is that I'm expecting it to outright die in the not-so-distant future...and I can't afford to replace it with a similarly capable model. This is compounded by the fact that one of my main hard drives died several months back and I lost quite a few of the Daz3D files for Eros Academy. Some of it was backed up (it should all have been, but there was a series of unfortunate events) which allowed me to finish out 2018 development. However, the loss of those files made things much harder and prevented me from ever adding to certain locations again, since I can't realistically duplicate the hacked-together combination of assets I used to make them.

2) I've come to utterly loathe working with Daz3d. It's good software for rich people. Sadly, I'm not a rich person and trying to develop with it on a shoestring is a %^$#ing nightmare.

3) I figured out by stretching myself much too thing last year that I simply couldn't handle trying to develop two games at once. Given numbers 1 and 2, Eros is the one I'm putting a halt too. It's possible I may pick it up again at some later point, but that's probably not all that likely, given the loss of many of it's development files. Sadly.

---------------------
Now that the potentially upsetting bit is over....the good news is there's still this one last big public release! Bit first, for the impatient, the Links:

PC Version



Mac Version




What's New Since the Last Public Release:
There are 87 new renders since the last public release! They are spread across a number of places (obviously) including new Naomi content, New Scenarios, and a new random encounter.
- The Chastity Exercise Challenge! Finally! Via this 18 render event, found via the Exercise Menu in the Main Hallway, Faith can now participate in Eros Academy's famous Chastity Exercise Challenge. If she chooses to join, she'll be locked in a belt for two weeks, with only toys charged by her exercise routine to get her off! (Note: Because I never implemented a calendar into Eros Academy, the 'two weeks' happen in snap-shots all at once).
- A Thief's Punishment! A new scenario (free from the scenario menu on the main hallway menu). Faith can act out the part of a pickpocket whose been capture in the City of Sune, a town dedicated to a goddess of pleasure! Watch as her punishment takes the form of being put up for Public Use by the rest of the city in this 9-render scenario...
- Tomb Delver! A new premium 26 render scenario that's a rather blatant parody of the Tomb Raiser series ^_^.
- 2 new additions to the Challenge board in Naomi's apartment ('Go do something at Naomi's place', from the 'Do something special' menu after you ask her to be your girlfriend). The new challenges are: The Chastity Day challenge and the Strip-Club challenge. Go check them out!
- A new 11 render random encounter, also making use of the new chastity belt asset. Use 'Explore the Academy until you stumble into an Eros Academy employee raffling off the key of a girl in chastity...
- Various bugfixes and some spelling/grammar corrections.

Sad news, but understandable. I hope you come back to this project one day, it's one of the very few that (competently) explore chastity/denial in way other than a throw-in scene over there. Best of luck!

Is the scenes with males avoidable?
Wow, this is a blast from the past. This was my very first game and never finished. Though it did have quite a bit of content before the core render files were lost to a drive dying on me:-(. As for the male scenes, if I remember right they were all avoidable. They were never popular with anyone, so there aren't all that many of them in comparison to the female/female scenes anyway, if I recall correctly.

I loved playing that game, and to this day can't find anything else comparable to go on to in terms of kinks / toys. It's just a boring deluge of "alpha male of the family" ever since, can't find anything properly kinky no matter how much I abuse tag search... :(

A shame this one isn't going to be finished even if with a different engine. It was very entertaining. And I still open it from time to time for another look.

The person with red hair lying down with restraints is that a futa or a male the screenshot named exhibition club room?
