Correct, although there is an added scene if you meet Regina in the locker room during the halloween party. Not an H-Scene though.
- Thread starter Caribdis
- Start date
I've just realized Nova is breathing through her nose in this scene. I thought she was an obligate mouthbreather, I didn't remember her ever seen with her mouth closed.

Thinking about a prime and proper lady, with lovely tattoos and teddybear heart...
See? She's just a teddybear. Wouldn't hurt a fly.

You *might* get Dalia in the upcoming update, Nova *might* be the update after, Penelope is definitely a 2024 ask. I'd bet money she comes 2nd to last, Luna still being last imo unless expectation is intentionally subverted.
Helping a lurker manage their expectations is facepalm worthy apparently, stay classy my guy SerHawkes.

I 100% agree with you but now I want to facepalm you.
And we really don't know what Caribdis is thinking, but yeah, sex with Penny before the dancing date is a no-no, and I'm pretty sure is a future date having the party in the last chapter, but again, I didn't expect fucking in an elevator with the Roman Goddess in your first time, and how happy I am to be wrong.
Edit:
Upsie...Not sure if a mistype for "Orion," or poster wandered in thinking this is the "Summer's Gone" thread.

What is even more dangeros for Caribdis is the music in the game.
I can't remember exactly if it was here or on discord that the are no music rights are bought.
Looks like this game is flying under the radar of many copyright owners. If any one of the owners gets wind about this game and notices how much money is generated through this game, Caribdis is in great trouble. He will be for sure sued to hell and back, let's hope that will never happen.

?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but a significant* chunk of music in Eternum (i.e. Run Boy Run, Rock this Joint, Silverware) are Royalty/Copyright Free stuff, right? So...what, you're saying he dl'ed them offsite and didn't purchase them from sites like Epidemic or something?
*Yes, I know this doesn't cover certain songs like "Cancion del Mariachi" (the taco song)

Even buy the music Epidemic is a real problem. Especially if the has game adult content. They are really uncool about using the music for that kind of stuff. Even if the artist has no problem with it, the license owner last the last word - if they say no you are screwed.
Do you know the game Summer's Gone from Ocean? He was forced to remove a shitton of his music from the game because of that shit. And we are talking about music rights that was bought for several thousand euros. Ocean will now hire a third person for the music stuff and use a attorney just to be proof to not get screwed again.
Drifty, the dev from Leap of Faith got a DMCA strike from such a asshole license owner. Same case, same shit. Music bought for a shitton of money and it can't be used 'cause of "no"

Eternum uses a mix of stuff licensed under Creative Commons and songs owned and licensed by third-party sites.
The former are safe, even if the copyright holders were to disapprove of their music being used in a game with adult content. That's the nature of Creative Commons - the restrictions they come with are limited, the licenses are perpetual and can't be revoked.
Now, even so, a copyright holder could ask him to remove their song(s), which is what happened to DPC with The Friday Prophets, but he wouldn't be obligated to comply. Doing so would be discretionary and a gesture of goodwill. Any claim of copyright infringement could be easily contested and dismissed as made in bad faith.
The one exception to this would be if the Creative Commons stuff that's in the game was licensed under one of the NC (Non-Commercial) licenses. In that case, it would have to be removed as otherwise Caribdis would be making himself liable to a DMCA takedown.
As for the music acquired from music libraries, it depends on where he got it from. I do know for a fact that he got at least some of the songs from Epidemic Sound and Artlist. Examples:
As soon as I found out that Caribdis is getting music from Epidemic, I sent him a DM where I told him of all the problems Ocean's had with them and cautioned against using them and a few other sites and suggested an alternative that's been safe for others to use so far. Premiumbeat and Jamendo Licensing haven't caused anyone problems, as far as I know (though they do have that pesky obscenity clause in their TOS, whose interpretation is very subjective).
As for Artlist, it caused Drifty a lot of grief and soured Leap of Faith's otherwise successful Steam release.
The short of it is that their TOS prohibit the use of their content in pornographic material. For long-term security, every song sourced from them would need to be removed, unfortunately. Even if Eternum can't be released on Steam, a DMCA takedown could still be filed directly with Patreon.
Those sites don't go actively looking for instances of people misusing their content. I reckon how they find out is because of people leaving comments on YouTube music videos ("Eternum brought me here!" and such) which might cause them or the artist of the song to see what it's all about... and if they don't like what they see, that's when the problems start.
Negotiating and securing licenses directly from the musicians is the safest way, even if it's quite a bit of hassle.

So what you guys are basically saying is that royalty free license holders are regressive puritanical imbeciles and it would be wiser for Caribdis or any other adult game dev to just hire independent artists to compose tracks for their game instead.
I mean that's going to take a dent on the dev time but the soundtrack will sound a bit uniform and thematic if done right instead of just being all over the place.
(And yes that was a jab at Caribdis' usage of "Run Boy Run" in Annie's first scene. Still think it sounds out-of-place given the mood and context of that particular scene, but I'm sure others would vehemently disagree)

When you put it that way, it could well be understood that way....
Thats for sure, only minor fraction of devs could be able to master this financial effort, and now we don't even talk about the time ...
