I kind of wish there were just a few types of monsters and go all in on that, "Emerald Inn" - greenskins welcome, dragongirls, whatever. Having one of everything is hodgepodge. But its a fun game and the characters are charming.

Quick Query, does the submission stat do anything for Vera, you could gain them during the first couple of convos but that got quickly dropped even when you try to be a jerk.
Also if you take Alice up on her offer can you actually anything afterwards? The game and MC implies it's an alternate path and you can, but talk to Rei and she says that the choice ends her route.

I DO remember a while back the dev talking about an upcoming update where the "bad end" of Alice's route would no longer be the end, and it would be recoverable... having said that, I can guarantee nothing.

The submission stat for Vera was planned to be a separate route for her ("love" route vs "domination" route) but I honestly don't think it would work, as she's already very submissive as is. I'll probably end up using it for future slaves though.

In the upcoming update, it is indeed no longer possible to "bad end" Alice's story, as hexkitty said. Taking the "bad" route will change the next event in her story, and a few other small details later in her events.

Thank you both for the clarification.

I have really enjoyed this ...the approach the script takes on the characters development....the tender side of being intimate is rare to see in adult games. I'm keeping my eye on this one...I hope it gets completed. It's one I will be buying when/if finished.

Looks like the tags are going to change (or I guess a new thread maybe?)

This patch will only be available to $10-20 subscribers for 72 hours, when it will become available to $3-5 backers.

It will become available for free on Friday (EST)



Phew, that was a long wait for an update! There were some big changes going on this time, so I was hoping to explain a bit about what happened and why, and the direction for the future of the game.

Okay, so there were a few of the questions/concerns that were brought up to me over the past few months from various parties. I hope this answered some of your questions, but if you have any more, please don’t hesitate to contact me on the Discord, on itch.io, or on Patreon.

Thanks for your patience, and I hope to see you all building your own inns out there!

Oh no... the Unity...

Sorry, just not a fan of Unity for VN, so far there was only one VN that played decently for me and even then it used too much resources for what it is... and there is always some feature that's missing. But we will see how it will go... I guess it's not just VN anymore (and honestly, it's make me kind of sad, but I respect dev for traying to do something more).

I hope the dev is generating Linux builds. Supposedly Unity makes it easy, but not a lot of porn game devs do it.
Excited to see it via Proton anyways, but porn games, annoying often, work remarkably bad via Proton.

Honestly, I can understand the trepidation. I’ve played my share of Unity VNs that I didn’t like as well. But I’ve done the best I can to replicate the features and feel of Renpy, and I think I got pretty close to the mark. The only thing that is missing is rollback due to a number of technical problems, but the game auto saves at the beginning of every conversation and right before every dialogue choice, so I hope that makes up for it a little bit.

As for performance, it’s an ongoing struggle, but I’m doing my best to optimize the game, and will continue in the future.

I’ll be doing my best to generate Linux and Mac builds as well, but I don’t have any way to test those, so no guarantees on the quality ^^;

it is a bit of a bizarre choice to go unity after their recent fee scandal.
rather than an open source alternative like godot, where you actually own your own game.
or even just unreal engine, which does not try to rape its developers the way unity does.

Oh, I'm sure it is, after all it's Unity. :p Joking aside, I'm sure you doing your best and I'm wishing you well, but Unity doesn't seems like the best choice honestly.

As for the game itself, I'm curious where you will go with it because it seems like you trying to change it from VN to something more at some point.
At the same time I'm worried because most of the times I feel like devs put "management" and other sandbox type activities in VN just to waste my time. Don't remember when last time I enjoyed game with that type of things, but I'm here mostly for story and characters so that's on me.

But you have your vision and I'm looking forward to be proved wrong and to enjoy this new version. Cheers.
