VN Ren'Py Game of Hearts [Ch.5 R1] [SparkHG]

[Memphis_Plus]

You know that the MC is a demon, not a normal human being? Hence the corruption is fast and makes the wife uninterested towards her husband. Being a demon has expedited the corruption process.

It is established by Astofiel that the worshipping needs to be 100% without any doubt and full consent. he also explains the dangers of rushing things. Even using himself as an example.

Astofiel even explains that MC lacks the powers of a demon and is more humanlike.

he also gave MC a specific task that will take time, leading MC to gain power. Turning Meredith away from her husband is not a one day job. A good example is Maxime who was not ready to worship MC after 2 years.

It can mean, storywise, that after some time Meredith is struggling and maybe loosing her interest in doing these shots, what would make sense if MC is too fast pushing her.

The MC lacks power in the demon world when compared to other demons, for humans he is still plenty powerful to sway their decisions to his side. Worshipping and attraction are two different things. Maxime is worshipping while Merideth has started to feel attracted towards the MC, hence losing a bit of interest towards her husband. The MC doesn't push anything fast on these ladies, it's just he is a demon so he is naturally charming to mere mortals.

Yeah sorry, how could I not see that? Dude, its okay. I just said that I find the pacing too fast. I am now silent and stay away from this forum. Have a great day

That's weird, I was stating what you questioned me about. If it came as aggressive then I am sorry, that was not my intention.

Nah, your reply was fine, I guess he just overreacted.

Hello! I'm here to post another round of teasers for the upcoming release. I'm nearing the end of the production cycle, but I think the final section poses a particular set of challenges I've never dealt with before.

Progress-wise, I'm currently sitting in the shoot section, which will be... a little different from the ones before. I can't divulge too much about it without spoiling the entire chapter, so I'll leave the rest to your imagination.

But rest easy. All the girls' attention will solely be on you—or in this case, the main character.

Your support has been incredible, and I'll do everything I can to answer your patience. Thank you again!

This month, there will be a new set of Valentine wallpapers featuring all the characters. Stay tuned.

Hi! It's been two weeks since my last update post. I'm here to share the progress of what I've done so far, though there isn't much to share that the pictures can't tell on their own.

There is one important update I have to share regarding the next release; initially, I planned to separate Chapter 4 into two parts: Last year's Christmas saw the release of the first part, and the next one was planned at around this time of the year.
However, part two will be the size of a regular chapter (about 1000+ renders and a sizable amount of animations) because... well, difference in the number of pathways due to the additional character in the scene. I could simplify it by reducing possible options and making it easier for myself, but that wouldn't do the scene its due justice.

The way I set it up now is a daunting task to complete—and equally so—interesting to play through. What if, let's say, you paid more attention to one of them than the other? At least, that was what I hoped to achieve. Juggling the attention of multiple people adds a different dimension to how each character reacts and thinks, thus making this scene a novel puzzle that I need to solve.

Anyway, enough blabbering. I can't wait to show you guys what I have come up with. As of now, the next part is slated to release next month (note: March). I don't foresee it being delayed any further.

Thank you for your support! Please be patient We're getting close to the finish line.

Well that's disappointing, I was hoping we'd have some time without Maxime after the last update. Not my lucky day, I guess.

Yeah, honestly, do not care about her at all.

 

[marvelfreak3000]

Cant wait for the next part. Hopefully this will be the end of Meredith's story and she will belong completely to the MC.

Just found this game. Did not think that I would like it from what I read of the "intro" on here, but I had nothing else to play so... and oh boy, do I loved it. Its now contending for my all time top 10 AVNs and that is saying something, this early in the development.
The story is very intriguing and suspenseful without being anxiety inducing (which i absolutely hate), the characters have depth and are not one dimensional, the models feel realistic in body proportions and variations which is a breath of fresh air in today's era of almost cartoonish women in AVNs, and last but definitely not least, the lewd scenes are fun and hot as fuck.
My one small gripe, if I HAD to nitpick, is that the camera movement during animated scenes is a little jarring? motion sickness inducing? something like that. (play the game yourself before you click on the spoiler because it might just be a me problem)


P.S. I do not get why people dislike Max. Sure, shes not my favorite (that being Julia) but she is a close second and an interesting character that I can not wait to see where this journey takes her.

dunno about that, in updates without max people complain that they want more max. At the end of the day people like complaining.

Some people like to complain that there aren't more "young" characters or concerns in a game that is clearly focused on the wife or MILF. This is like complaining about no pure love in a game that is clearly NTR, complaining about no NTR in a game that is pure love. Complaining about having no harem in a game without harem. Can never satisfy all mouths

I can only speak for myself, but I find Maxime offputting. She has a bland personality and her only goal is to get more of the MC's magic penis. That's the opposite of what I'm looking for in a LI. It's hard to take her alleged love for the MC seriously when we know he has a powerful intoxicating effect on mortals and all we see is Maxime acting like a junkie.

If we got to see her in a broader context, caring about things other than the MC, that would help.

The story started with MC and Maxime being in a two-year long affair, so considering that if you don't like her because of how she is intoxicated by mc, then you are gonna hate every LI because in two-year game time, they are gonna be all like her. Thats the one of the main points of the game.

Astofiel set the MC on the path of creating a devoted follower base. This does not necessarily mean the rest of the game will be about the MC doing that - and only that - exactly as ordered.

But even if the game is entirely about building a devoted harem, there's plenty of room for followers who still have a measurable personality and the occasional thought that doesn't involve the MC. If turning Meredith into another Maxime is indeed the point of the game then I will definitely be disappointed.

Speaking my thoughts exactly. I get it's a corruption game, but I feel like it was setting up a path for more romance/love interests not being solely devoted to sex. Instead it kinda feels like you're turning them into "willing" sex dolls and just being nice about it. I commented about this before but that Maxime dinner scene was a let down for me because it could have so easily expanded on her character, but instead just jumped to more sex.

I do like the game don't get me wrong, so right now I'm hoping it's just a strong start in the sex aspect and once the harem is more established it will explore their characters beyond a sexual light. (Insert copium here).

I completely get your point, but the premise of the game at this point is that MC needs to get powerful fast because of the upcoming war and having followers like Maxime is the fastest way, so I think the first few LI will probably follow the same path. As I mentioned, in Maxime's case we didnt get to see the two-year long progression.
Maybe once MC grows stronger he could mask some of his influence without losing his power, that could be an offramp that the Dev could take. The game is at a very early stage so there is lots of possibilities.
