Just gonna rethrow my earlier thoughts on the discussion about how long the game's gonna be...

[Caribdis] mentioned that Eternum would be longer than OIAL but considering how fast the narrative is going (IMO) it probably won't be TOO long IMO.

My current bet is that the story will go up to 0.11-0.12, maybe up to 0.13 but I don't think it'll get any higher than that unless Caribdis slows shit down or introduces a bunch of other narrative twists and reveals that'll take more patches than usual to resolve. But I still think it'll finish around 0.11-0.12 if he extends the story because currently Caribdis' pacing allows him to release 3 updates a year...and (barring any hiccups) getting to 0.11 [or 0.12-13] gives him a [4-year dev time], which is more than enough for a non-sandbox-esque story-based VN with a tight narrative IMO.

Yeah I still stand by what I said. Don't want dev to burn out by making the game overstay its welcome. Keep the narrative tight and end it, then move on to the next game.

lmao i just imagined at the end of the game, orion is with his entire harem, they are all talking and for some reason it is revealed that the girls had sex with someone before orion, and he just flips out and kills them all with a shotgun
It's gotta be Nancy, with one of the girls pointing out that it's pretty obvious she had sex before since she's given birth twice.

Since I first finished 0.4 I've been playing a bunch of other games to fill the void, and I decided to replay my favourite chapter (bank heist) only to be reminded once again how nearly every other game pales in comparison. Eternum is seriously too fucking good for a porn game.

Btw, heads or tails guys? :sneaky:

That may be one of Sancho's rare typos, or it counts two different avenues to the same stamp - maybe depending upon whether you go to Potions first or the Emporium. The play out is slightly different depending upon order (but you may already know that).
I went to the tower first and then the potions, but I guess it doesn't really matter I thought maybe getting 6 would give you some kind of bonus that's all. Thanks for letting me know.:)

I have not used the mod personally. You can win using 4 stamps and the 5th one gives you some bonus money.

Maybe Sancho1969 can correct the typo in the next iteration of the mod when 0.5 comes out assuming they plan on continuing with the mod.
Good morning folks.

Well, the dev has code for a total of 6 stamps, and the addition to the variable to make it so. For example (this is non-modded code):
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
  • The mod states correctly: "(5 awards 300 Eternals)"
  • To be fair Prof Owler has two stamps.

Post edit to the above for further clarification:
To explain a bit further, when I updated the mod to v0.4 I noticed not only the above posted code but also the dev took the time to create 6 "Seal" images:

When I reviewed both of the evidential items I had to assume the dev made an error on their end that doesn't currently allow the player to achieve a total of six, but the code and the images are there as if the player could or should. Therefore I wrote the code in the mod to correlate with this so that, if later, the dev corrected the "bug" that my mod code would be unaffected (it would still be correct). See what I'm getting at? If anything the ability of the player to only be able to achieve 5 out of 6 is not on me and it's not a typeo... it's either a bug or a massive oversight of the dev who took the time to not only write code for 6 of them but also took the time to create images for a total of 6. I handled it the best way I thought would make sense for the mod release and for the future until the "issue" was resolved.

Regards.

That is insight we would not otherwise have. Appreciated.

Owler was Divination, correct? I wonder if there was originally a thought to do six, with code copy/pasted/edited for six, but it was decided that after creating 5 scenes, that was enough, and since the sixth didn't break the game, it simply wasn't cleaned up. Maybe not the most elegant of coding, but something that wouldn't surprise me if accurate.

[0.5] - Progress Report #2
Hello guys!!
2022 is almost over, and Eternum's update is getting closer and closer every day.
I hope everyone had a good year, and if not, don't worry, the next one will surely be better!
I don't have much to tell today apart from the fact that the development is still going smoothly (so... good news!) There are almost 900 renders already done, and over +26 animations rendered. This will probably be the biggest update so far in terms of content!
As usual, I also took some extra time to redo and fix a couple of things from previous updates. For example, the Eternum login animation has been changed to a new one, as you can see in the video. I think it looks much cooler, and well, this one isn't "ripped off" from a youtube video as the first one
As I told you in the previous Progress Report, this update will focus on real-life events, bonding with our favorite girls, and getting to know them better.
You can expect lots of sexy times too, because there will be 4 new lewd scenes in 0.5. Yes, you heard that right! 4 new H-Scenes, all of them fully animated as usual. With who? Ahhh... you'll have to play to find out
I'm working harder than ever on the game, and if I can keep up this pace, I should be able to release the game this January (at least for the highest tiers).
If there is any problem (let's hope not), I'll let you know!
And that's all for now, I'll post new sneak peeks in a few days with new previews, so stay tuned! If you have any questions, my DMs are open.
Thank you for making the game possible, guys.
Let's make it even better!
Love you all
Caribdis
