Does this have vag pen?
Considering how one of the endings involves impregnation, I hope so! Not EVERY scene will have vag pen though, I’m personally a fan of kissing myself.

I'm really interested to see how hot your first H-scene turns out, I too find that the best part of NTR is the corruption from the Female POV. The inner turmoil of reason slowly burning away to lust is chef's kiss to me in NTR. Is it safe to say your envisioned end game involves eventual impregnation?

I'm guessing you're almost/already done with the unvoiced version of 0.3, does it take long for the VA to record her voice lines for 0.3?
Yeah, I think the end-game of many NTR is to have UB impregnate the heroine. Though pregnancy H-scenes aren’t exactly my kink, so I don't think there will be many scenes of it (gotta preserve the budget for the essential scenes)! It just looks uncomfortable to being having H with a full grown belly lmao.

I think it’s safe to wait a month for voice acting, but I’ll try to ask for it earlier if I can. There is a possibility that v0.4 will come before v0.3 recording is done, but we shall see lmao. (It may go v0.3 unvoiced > v0.4 unvoiced > v0.3 voiced, for example).

The reason being v0.3 is a very long scene, with lots of gasping and moaning and screaming. I had to take breaks writing it because it was so intense, and the VA will almost assuredly take breaks too (if she wants to keep her voice, lmao).

I’m aiming to release v0.3 (unvoiced) in the coming days for people to play and bug-test. H-scenes are actually hella hard to edit, which is probably why they're so damn short with little dialogue in many games sometimes, haha.

I love this, but maybe consider saving a few bucks for at least one or two preggo scenes since you are including impreg in the story? For preggo fans, having impreg without the payout even in endgame is kinda like watching a long race and leaving before the finish (which is the best part of a race). It's also why I have trouble choosing devs to support, I don't want to be someone that only supports a dev in the final couple of months in a project, but usually it takes so long to get to that point in a story that most devs either abandon a game or it takes years to get to the content I enjoy most and I end up supporting the wrong projects. My kink is the worst I swear haha.

Unfortunately, I don't have much experience with preggo content and I don't want to promise that only for you to get disappointed. :(
There are intricacies involved like hormones, 6 month time skips, and other things, but preggo sex is not a kink I know too much about, and I definitely don't want to write mediocre content out of respect to fans.

It is a NTR game so that's what most of the scenes will be. :)
But if we get enough funds, I want to include one extra-long scene with MC (probably near end as a reward), possibly two (one at middle of story).

I realize that sex is normal in a healthy relationship, but I have to work with the small budget I currently have (deliver what people are mostly here for).

If even 5% of the people that downloaded the game were Patreon subs, we'd have enough to fund the game and several sequels, ahaha. It feels like squeezing water from a stone sometimes… so the only thing I can do is continue writing and working hard, and hoping people notice our good work ><.

so I got a issue when sometime game feels laggy and the dialogue is delayed so much, the first think in my mind is could be my 10 years laptop but when I close the game and open it again everything looks so normal and smooth until the Akari monologue part. I try to extract and replace the folder, reinstall it but the problem still there. anyone know how to fix this? or maybe this just my old ass laptop

Edit: Turn out I just need to quick save and quick load at laggy part and everything back smooth again, I mean... bruh

I have no clue, as this is the first time I've heard about this problem. Could be old laptop, or Ren'Py jank lol.
The game DOES render at 2560x1440 native resolution (that's why the sprites are so sharp), so it could be an old tech issue.
Perhaps re-loading clears the Ren'Py cache and your RAM.

If the issue persists, maybe the compressed version will help? IDK.

yup, i think its my old ass laptop. It sometime can run smooth but after few minutes its become laggy and if I quick load and save it back to normal for few minutes, well it's a shame but it's not like I won't be looking forward to this game. If my laptop still can run it nothing can stop me from enjoying this game, good job on making this game. I'm waiting for the next progress

Since the art is supposed to be human made, it feels oddly ai like though when compared to the artist previous works like compared to with the high alpha exposure and lack of texture on the fabric and simplified designs. Would like a time encoded drawing as proof of work.

Hello,

I’m sorry if you think the artwork is AI! There are two artists for my project (they are listed on my website). The artist for Akari (the one who does the CGs) isn’t the one who draws Rei’s sprites. I have one artist for specializing in girls and one artist specializing in guys.

Anyway, artists work on pieces on and off. Akari’s artist takes a month for each piece because they work on it in-between their other company work. It’s an insane insult to ask a professional artist for a time-encoded drawing. That’s a waste of time, and any self-respecting artist will just tell you to hire someone else. If you need a time-recording to ascertain whether something is AI (or not), then perhaps AI is indeed acceptable enough for your standards. Would you ask a composer to record themselves IRL coming up with the melody and verses to make sure he didn’t AI those?

It’s totally fine if you think my game is AI, but please be careful with the accusations if you talk to other devs/artists in the future. It can really hurt them, and many budding artists give up on art entirely because of these accusations. And no, recordings have never helped because there are AI that do those too. (I'm not saying your opinion’s wrong, if it looks AI in your eyes, but I've seen artists delete their entire galleries over a few comments, because not many can deal with the constant suspicion.)

The images on itch.io have a filter applied to screw with web scrapers. It's actually a watermark of my name, lol.

Sometimes I wish I used AI too. Then I could AI the bad-ends in Chapter 1 to have H-scenes since people are always asking about them lol. (BTW, I do plan to add these scenes in Chapter 1 eventually, once I save enough).

I just realised, the first H-scene is based on the video during the beginning right? It's not voiced but there are sex/moaning sound effects, is it from the same VA? I'm guessing it is included in 0.3 before the voiced version is ready?

For the prologue, I deliberately left that unvoiced so you wouldn't be sure whether it was an actual event… or a nightmare. I used a long moaning track that's several minutes long so it would sound sexy and not repetitive (hate short loops).

For the real H-scene in v0.3, it will be even better, as I'll have the VA individually moaning every line for your complete f*pping pleasure. The plan is for the entire moaning sequence to be natural and unique with no repeats. (Every Ahh! Ahh! is treated as its own voice line and not a generic moan, for example)
But I may have the VA do a long, ambient indistinct moaning too if it's a popular request among Patrons (Ahh! Ahh! Ohh! in the background). All secrets will be revealed on v0.3 :D

What I'm planning to do is release v0.3 early for Patrons to read and gather feedback from. That allows me to adjust length of the H-scene, along with any voice acting requests to get worked out. After that, it's shipping off for voice acting.

I actually don't want v0.3 leaked here (because people are going to judge and complain about lack of voices prematurely), but c'est la vie… It will NOT be entertaining answering the same question 5x in a row LMAO.

v0.3 is also taking a while because I'm going back and replacing any unvoiced dialog in the earlier parts of the game, too. So those are getting manually translated to be voiced.

Right now I'm desperately marketing and trying to shill hard because I REALLY want that bad-end H-scene in Chapter 1 illustrated and voiced in the near future; people really loved those bad ends and I want to give them their cake ahahaha. (For reference, that's the one with the bastard in the restroom lmao.)

NTR with optional vanilla. :3
I would say leans closer to NTR (90%+ of planned H-scenes are NTR), but "vanilla" playthrough possible.
NTR is avoidable, though. For NTR-pilled purists, they might not like that fact lol.
Damn, i knew this was going more on the NTR side but i hadn't realized it would be by that much. Guess I'll just wait then until the whole thing is finished and maybe try then instead.

Ahaha, sorry if you got any misconceptions. I thought I was really clear that the majority of H-scenes are NTR. That's only for H-scenes, though.

In terms of actual content, people told me avoiding the NTR was very fun. Lots of action and intrigue going on. I spent a lot of time on those scenarios, and I don't think it's any worse than the NTR scenes. Keep in mind that this is a long-form suspense game, so only 10% of the script involves H in the first place. That's why there's an all-ages version.

The H-scenes I can't do anything about. When I did a vote, the votes were overwhelmingly for NTR H-scenes over vanilla lol.

Before I start the game, I just want to know if the game has progressed far enough that the love interest is starting to get corrupted by the antagonist?
