Any idea how close this feels to a complete release?
I just finished Once in a Lifetime and now I'm pumped for the next Caribdis VN.
We're probably several months away from 0.9, and at least a couple years away from a full 1.0 release. Note that in the versioning system Caribdis uses, 1.0 is NOT going to be next after 0.9, but 0.10 will. Currently projections are the game will be finished around 0.13 or so.

Very thorough answer and to the point. Much appreciated. Guess we'll have to wait more. To patreon!

Assuming it is indeed Alex that is dressed as Ciri in that render, my guess is that they find that Orion has disappeared and that she and Dalia takes it upon themselves to go to Ekbar and the inn Calypso stayed at to look for him.

Also, the anger that Penny and Dalia feels when discovering that Orion has been fucking everyone may then be overcome by the worry they feel when they found out he has disappeared. That's one way to make the sisters not hate each other and Orion upon the harem reveal.

If you only want to play it when it is finished, you will have to wait for years. The Dev mentioned at some point that the estimate is 13 Updates, we had Update 8 released a few months ago.

I recommend playing it. There is a lot of content already, you will be occupied for quite some time.

I'm so hyped for the Penny/Dalia interaction.
I was starting to "not wait so much" for next update, well it's over.

And finally Penny's back :love:

occasionally choosing one person over another doesn't mean you like that person over the other.
"Shut up Brad! Just cause I wanted Chad to crush my pussy today instead of you doesn't mean I don't love you both equally! You'll get back in the rotation in 3 updates, promise."

a 10-minute flavor change
It's not the length that matters, it's how you use it.

Any good businessman delivers on a promise they made to the fanbase
Tell me you've never been involved in a business decision without telling me you've never been involved in a business decision. I'm a lead in software. Shit changes constantly in response to new information. Adaptability is how businesses survive.

Anyway this is going nowhere fast so I'll leave it a that. I have faith Caridbis will see the light.

Hello everyone!
I hope you're all doing great!!!
Today I’ll be very brief, since I just have a quick question regarding future updates!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's the thing:
How would you feel about having to choose between two girls (once the relationship with them both has been already established) for a lewd scene? The scenes would be mutually exclusive, meaning you can pick one or the other, but that choice wouldn’t affect the romantic path with the girl you didn’t choose. It would only impact this one scene (and maybe a few future dialogues), so future intimate moments with either girl would still be possible.
In short, something like the werewolves/vampires choice in 0.8, but featuring gallery lewd scenes instead. (Also, keep in mind the gallery would show both scenes unlocked after watching them in any playthrough in any case).
I could make it possible to view both scenes in a single playthrough, but this might affect the pacing, maybe making things feel a bit rushed. Of course, if you prefer that option, I’ll do my best to make things flow smoothly, no worries!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
And that's all I wanted to ask for now!
I’ll be sharing more details about development and a bit about myself (it's been a tough month, but we’re pushing through!) in the next post, which is finally going to be... YES! THE FIRST SNEAK PEEKS!
YOU BETTER STAY TUNNED! COMING UP IN JUST A FEW DAYS!
I truly appreciate all your support, both financially and with your kind words
I’m so grateful to have such an amazing community behind me
Thank you again for everything, and see you all very soon!
Love you,
Caribdis



Current vote count is 56-44 in favor of branching (and imo it's the better choice, it adds replayability and doesn't force Cari to somehow fit everything in one narrative arc).
So what is the result? Brancing won? :FacePalm:

since it was almost even (51-49 for branching to be exact), Cari wrote that he'll take it all into consideration, so I wouldn't expect any drastic changes in Eternum's style.

I see... Since Eternum is a harem game, there shouldn't be any branching for the lewd scenes. Branching in story is cool though.

Penny or Dalia...

Heh... Look at the 1st sneak peeks. It is pretty obvious that'll be the option. I can't choose one over the other. None of us can, I think.

Dalia, all the way. IMO Penny has the most uninteresting personality. All LIs are Top Tier, but Penny is the weakest IMO.
That interesting, i have pretty much the opposite opinion. Dalia being the "weakest" girl of the list (Penny near/at the top).
Now I wonder which one of us is the most controversial opinion. But it's usually me, in most games when it come to which LI is fan favourite ^^ It seems to tend be Nova and Alex in Eternum and they are in the middle for me so, yeah...

Anyway i would choose and favour Penny in this situation ( i would still be bump out to miss content for Delia, she is still absolutely great don't get me wrong) but if it was something like "Penny vs Annie" i would absolutely be freaking furious and probably break my keyboard.... please Caribdis save my keyboard, he didn't do nothing to you :'( XD

Two things:
First, as I said, all LIs are top tier. If I would have to rate them from 1-10, all would have at least a 9.something.
Second, it really speaks for the game when there is no clear favorite for the players.

But overall, I just find Penny pretty boring. She has her social media, her big tits and her looks, but otherwise she is pretty flat (character-wise). I just think Dalia is more interesting, her scenes are more interesting than Pennys modelling scene and the one scene where she is not involved in some modelling is outclassed by Novas scene in the same update.

I can see where you're coming from: Penny has no 'problems' in her life. She is a successful regional model that makes her own money and is nice to everybody. Her obstacles are going against the blonde bimbo stereotype and abusive fashion business people. However, compared to what the other girls have to deal, her problems seem... minimal.

Sure she is an archetype of the Popular girl, blessed by life with beauty, intellect and charisma. But saying that her character is flat and uninteresting because she doesn’t have "problems" is a bit silly. Except Alex the other girls don't have any kind of real problems either. I'm not sure what you are talking about honestly.

Also, i don't find her boring and i think she is cool and pretty fun but i guess at the end of the day it's always back to "everyone have different tastes" saying i suppose. And i have to admit that gym bunnies are not my usual favourite type of characters, so that doesn’t play in Dalia favor in my case.
