Where is Akane? :cry: As a chosen doesn't she deserve to be in this baner? I understand the limited physical space. You might have already tested it to. It might be to not loose detail on the characters or to not spoil part of the story. The question is still there tho. Just that the answer can be anything.
Just space restrictions, and not having a good pan animation for her :)

Though there *is* another reason as well :)

No, never. There's been jokes about it (Landlady & Flatmate game), and Chloe makes references to it at various points as a comment on adult games in general, but there was never any actual incest content.
Oh, how I wished there was, though. We're already degen-- cultured people. A little bit of incest wouldn't hurt. :ROFLMAO:

The myths this game is based on are always overflowing with incest, so in that way it is NOT true to the source material lol.

Let's see, some quick heads up:


First of all, Act XV is done, and up on Steam's Beta branch. I'll do a public build once I'm sure there's nothing weird in it. With Act XV done, there's only one full act left, XVI: Eternal Summer. After close to 4 years, the end is in sight.

The second thing is that finally got it's steam page up. If you're enjoying Love of Magic, give it a wishlist, it's super useful before launch!


What's Morningstar?
Once I'm done with with Love of Magic, my next project is another Urban Fantasy story. It's a different universe, but many of the same characters (Souls) came along for the ride. There's a demo of the first 7 days content + ~20 days worth of sandbox content available to Patreons, and once I'm done with the first act I'll do a public build.

Morningstar is looking really good. And a Match 3 combat system, huh? Does Katie use poker as her combat framework in Morningstar? How the turns table. ;)

I almost had a heart attack from the volume of the trailer. I didn't know it'd be that loud. :ROFLMAO:
It looks great though. And seeing our favorite character's designs in another game is quite nice.

Thx! :)

It's fascinating to look at it and compare it to the early builds of LoM, but I guess I've had 4 years of development between then and now. MC's also a lot closer to Book 3's character; harder and more streetwise (and quite prone to violence).

so we are playing the devil fighting against oblivion? Noice, also the MC looks a lot more manly in this one and not a class B porn star from niche movies!

also the book of the fallen... is that a John Gwayne reference? he is one of my favourite new authors!
which reminds me must still order the hunger of the gods!

I suspect the subconscious inspiration was the Malazan Book of the Dead (Ericson).
1ST OF ALL great choice,
i could comend you on much with such a choice but i think 1st and foremost its the ability to keep going
most of those books only get good half way in and the last ones omfg 600 to 1200 pages so thats a true staying power!
but he does deliver in the end!

do you need a walkthrough to play book 1to3 i want to go the harem path?
The default path is Harem path; no walkthrough needed.

There's a good walkthrough on the Wiki, but it's worth doing a playthrough without it first, and seeing what you can find. All the side-content is optional; the central group will advance based on the day-to-day calendar (similar to Persona 4/5).

Okay, 0.4.10 build updated, taking the game to the end of Act XV.

This is the second to last act of the trilogy; the game will end with Act XVI, Eternal Summer. Hope you've all enjoyed it :)

Want to support development? Here's a couple of things you can do. First and foremost, wishlist Book 3... it's a free way to help it get proper support at launch.

You can also grab Book 1 & 2 on Steam here:

You can also become a ; I give steam keys to any Patreon that wants one.

Finally... after Love of Magic's done, the plan is to start working on Morningstar, an Urban Fantasy game set in a darker, grittier world with many of the same souls in a new story. Check it out here, and give it a wishlist if it looks fun:

Just to be clear, there is another game called Morningstar from 2015 on steam so make sure you wishlist the correct game.
