Hot damn, thanks to Saikey for leading me to this game. Another favorite I'm following now! My others that I'm following now are:
  • Heartsworn Abyss (I'm actually proofreading and bug-testing for this one haha)
  • Henteria Chronicles 3
  • Falling Undercover: Nox Syndicate
  • Vulgar Reverie
  • Maya's Mission
  • He Maid Her Fall
  • NTR Mobile
  • Whispers of Desire
You've written a great lead character in Duvessa! Starting out, I felt really bad playing as such a manipulative, unscrupulous woman that accused her brother of murder. I didn't want him to be sacrificed for her ambitions. I felt horrible for Veska being used as a tool--having to seduce Dedrick under false pretenses, being made to frame him after she fell for him, having her family threatened, and being sucked back into Duvessa's schemes.

But then I just started getting more into how Duvessa thought and operated. She's unapologetically herself. She doesn't pretend that she's noble or altruistic. She's upfront with her ambitions while still being sneaky and cunning. Eventually, I started thinking about what would be in her best interest. I wanted her to succeed. To forge new alliances, uncover mysteries, make risky gambits, break her enemies, and use her body at every opportunity.

I am playing a more submissive Duvessa to see how she can be humiliated, used, and overpowered. Hee hee~

I also greatly appreciate the custom UI. Some of my favorite Ren'py games still use default textboxes, fonts, and others. You made it look like your game and not a Ren'py game. Kudos.

There are some points where my eyes sort of glaze with the small talk, and it gets hard to keep up with all the names, families, locations, and such. I can't keep it all in my head who's most plot-relevant and how they relate to Duvessa and others. Perhaps I should read the Encyclopedia more, but I'd like a sort of graphical illustration of who's who and what their relations are. It'd probably a wide one. Also, a gallery unlocker and hints for what the locked CGs and scenes are and how to obtain them in-game.

Thanks much for the kind words! That sort of graphical illustration is precisely the sort of thing I'd like to make when I can afford to do more secondary content like that. I'd like to do a detailed family tree for each of the 8 (basically 7 at the moment) main houses for sure. As I said on the last page of this thread the NSFW guide for Episode 2 is coming soon!

I wonder if there will be lasting consequences for agreeing to Griffin's Beak's demands. I sympathized for them and accepted all of their terms (also hoped this would make Duvessa more submissive to the villagers and to Jasen). I could see how allowing the serfs to buy their freedom could bite Devereux in the ass later. That could open the door for other Houses to buy their serfs from them in an effort to weaken their tax income.
