So, it seems i was sleeping and missed the poll, u can add 1 more vote to the loser team... yes, the battles need some more elements in play and more variation, among other things u can add, but they are very good already, we are talking about tweeks here and there and adding stuff, not a completely new engine to run that byke...

One thing though, i read this:
Significant number of people voted against the RPG part. We are not gonna change the game but rather give them the possibility to skip the combat part if they like to. In my opinion it is the best approach to this.
So... u are considering a "skip button" to the dungeon fights... well, the first thing that comes to my mind, been a long time RPG player since Zelda, its that u are going against one of the main reasons anyone plays a RPG game: the sence of achievement, the rewards after leveling up so now u can do whatever u are able to do in that game when u reach certain levels or manage to get "that" item, etc...

Of course its ur decision and all, just be aware that by doing that u also can just discourage all the players like me, cause if u can "get everything" without doing the hard labours, well, u know, its pointless to put some effort... unless there are certain stuff u can "only get" by fighting properly, leveling up and shit... if u implement that "skip button" to all fights i think most people will choose the easy way, even most of the ones who like RPG games, because it will be pointless to explore that, like many do here with the CG rips from visual novels that have good art but not so good story... making the efforts u put in that dungeon part rather pointless aswell...

Dont take this as an attempt to tell u what to do or anything, just telling u my thoughts, maybe u can think of a way of doing it that "reward" also the ones who will put lots of time and effort doing those fights too... i have to say also that im amazed, not in a good way, like buttlovinmagic before me, that there was a poll like this for this game, really... Cheers!

You are right in many points from your perspective as a player. For me, as a developer, the main goal is to make a game what most of the people find enjoyable. Everybody have a slightly different taste.
Even Summertime Saga, probably the most popular and patronized game in this forum, contains an option to skip it's super easy mini-games.
Some people just like to enjoy the storytelling, the characters, and the adult content.

BUT (!), the game will reward the proper gameplay in the future and I already have an idea how.

I played this entirely for the RPG aspect. I would have been happy with just that alone. I maxed out my skills, though it seems only half of them had a use. If anything, the RPG part needs fewer but more challenging fights (once you're level 3-4 you dominate all combat without needing potions or anything [assuming you go DEX and INT, the only logical choices.. CON is ok for a couple points, STR is useless]) as well as more uses for the skills you've learned. Despite these criticisms though, I found the game compelling and the early game challenging and fun.

The sex scenes didn't really do it for me. They just seem tacked on. They were nicely done if you're into strait vanilla no frills "let's just get to it" kind of sex, but lacked any sort of nuance.. but that may just be me. I am not really into aggressive women and that seemed to be the majority of sex scenes, a woman demanding sex and then they get strait to it. The only scene I really enjoyed was with the dark haired elf by the well. I both like her character model the best as well as her scene which was at least somewhat provocative and not simply "it's sex time now" followed by sex. I guess it's the fact that she was a normal person and not just someone being manipulated by magic to be a slut.

Anyway, I really enjoyed the game despite it not being 100% to my taste. I'd like to see more boss fights where potion use and strategy are necessary, less grindy fights (only a little less), and more use of the RPG elements. I'd like to see a mix of more non-crystal based sex and more scenes like the one with that dark haired elf girl.

Porn rpg game in renpy, why haven't I played this yet? Also to all the haters in the poll who are bitching about a game having gameplay features other than click for pix and animashuns

I'll have to give this game a whirl sometime, but never cave to haters, sjws or fuck bois.

Here's my crunched version.

Lossy compression (means image/audio/video quality is reduced to make shit smaller) is used. You've been warned so no bitching.

I haven't played it yet but RPG elements seem like a cool idea if they have an actual effect on the game and award you different options, abilities, interactions with other characters including the content you see. If it's just combat stuff then that's kind of a drag.

I'll give it a look tonight or tomorrow.

how do you rate this game ? it is worth playing and even donating ?
Yes, in the current 0.7 version, it is worth every penny. This game does not require a lot of work to get to the adult content. Story line is good. I would rate the game at 8/10. The - 2 score is waiting on more content. It is a huge improvement when i was playing version 0.4. So, please donate to the dev on the patreon page.

player.Crystallize =

player_inv.money =

player._Str =
player._Dex =

OK, I'm probably missing something obvious (not the first time), but how do you gain access to the ball? I can't figure out how to get an invitation.

talk to the witch, go to the temple... defeat the undead boss, talk to the witch again.
Return to the temple and give the highpriestess a potion of corruption (first visit at night and ask the priestess about herself)
Now get access to the castle and visit.
Afterwards activate the red crystall at night for the castle.
visit at night and you are finally done
