Jubs! You've got the depth, and breadth in the lore. Your story telling just keeps gettin' better and better. With a little help from Milton, your grammar is even improving! :ROFLMAO: The most amazing thing, though, is how rapidly you are producing very high quality content! Hell, man, not only are the renders and animations getting even more amazing, but the presentation is improving, as well. IMO you are approaching the Droid level. Word is spreading, friend. Soon you are going to absolutely blow up!

Imma hang for a bit, and then go check out .28!!! :p

Then I thought actually... you could have a "surefoot" enchantment, that only activates if you land in a way that would have turned your ankle, for example. It's unlikely to fail in combat but would be a useful thing to have.
I would avoid something like that "surefoot enchantment", since it isn't very clear how it works. For example it is pretty intuitive understand how a fire resistant armour might works: it shields the wearer from the heat of the fire. At the same way a magical carpet might fly due the antigravity and the propulsive effect of its enchantment, but how that "surefoot" enchantment works? Does it heal the ankle after the damage or it stabilizes the ankle, avoiding the damage?
I think that the answer to this kind of questions is fondamental, because it makes the magical items more believable, since it makes clear what they can do, what they cannot do and how they do that, it allows you to understand if the items must be in contact to the skin (like a pair of healing socks should) or if it may not (like a pair of "stabilizing" shoes) and it allow you to check if you are introducing some silly idea or not.

The images in this post are unedited, unpolished, not upscaled and included just to give you an idea of what to expect in 0.3 - I have no completed assets yet, so these are just the raw material. Fingers will look dumb, swords will be at strange angles, some blemishes/tattoos/body paints are subject to change/deletion. It may be that none of these make it into 0.3, as I have a about 1200 images generated for each female character featured in this update. These are just a few of the sort of SFW ones.

I've been back a couple of days and started work on 0.3. Tomorrow morning I will put the links up for v0.28 for public access.

I've already published the patch notes for 0.25, 0.26 and 0.27, so I won't repeat them here.

Patch notes for 0.28:

All versions:

Corrected an error introduced with the option to skip Isabella's sex scene in Chapter 1.

Corrected a missing dialogue tag in one of the new scenes.

Improved the transition flow in Emelia's camp scene in the first Cartographer's Guild mission.

Mobile Version:

I know I said I wasn't going to support the mobile version, but I took advantage of having it available to play through whilst I was away. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it all worked fine and looked really good on the small screen. So, whilst it isn't a main version, I did want to make some improvements. The first of which is to remove the text box background so you can see what is behind it.

The mobile version is much harder to modify than the main version. I've been trying to get the side images to work in a way that doesn't blot out the text and to add a button that completely removes the onscreen UI (an equivalent to the 'h' key for the PC version). But it's proven surprisingly stubborn at resisting my efforts. I'll have another go at it, but for now it's just the removal of the textbox.

0.3 progresses well, considering that beyond planning it out and starting some of the image generations, I only really started working on it in earnest on Sunday. However, the story is written and about 55% of it is transferred into renpy. It's about 11,000 words. Planning out the story, writing and then editing it are my favourite parts of the process. This next mission takes Emelia and the MC into the rainforests that cover about a third of the border between the Triumvirate and it's northern border with Cantabria. They have been chartered by the military to go on a rescue and reconnaissance mission, following their own mapping team falling overdue.

There is a significant step in their relationship plus some experimenting with metaphysics that takes place and the MC learns a few survival tips and skills from Emelia. The tone of this mission returns to the darker one of Chapter 2. There is going to be some fairly gruesome, non sexual, horror content and violence in this one. There will of course also be plenty of magical wardrobe malfunctions and some naughty stuff going on.

I've also generated most of the base images for the sprites. I expect to finish transferring the story and scripting the choices and stat changes tomorrow. So I will likely be starting to build sprites and create the backgrounds then as well. As soon as I have some working sprites and completed backgrounds, I can also start producing animations. So it sort of all ramps up from here.

On Thursday I'll add up some more bonus content for all members. Hope you all enjoy 0.28 when it comes out tomorrow.

Is this a bug on my part or do some links lead to downloading another game Raptus?

Not a bug, someone just pasted the file hosting URLs for a different game. Only the GoFile link points to the correct game.

JubsGames, this game looks fantastic from the looks of the pics above, d/l now. Wondering if our hero can meet up with a young grandma MILF type, for intimate sessions? This type of genre is very rare in games and it is kind of a kick to see older hotties getting some action too. I think something like that would fit in your game. BTW, I love the time period of your game as well. Making the "grandma" blood-related would be icing on the cake. I am also into stats, sex acts and corruption stats, this would be nice to have (maybe already in the game). Best of luck, will be following this game closely.

I seem not to get all points with Emilia, only 3/4 do I have to be virgin to get the whole points ?
and still a bit insecure about Order / Balance/ Chaos how they influence the game, or my personality

I think there are a couple errors in point tallies. I was missing that point as well and checked the code. I think there's a max point that gets awarded when it shouldn't. There is also a point in aberrant gnosis that has the same issue. At least that's what it looks like to me...

You can't. In this scene you get a Emelia max points going up by 2 (based on having 2 viable Emelia point answers).

But you can only choose 1 answer, which means you can only get 1 point to your score.

While the answer you don't choose will add one to the max.

You can only be 2/3 at this point (and from then on at least 1 point behind).

Hopefully, Jubs! will get it all straight for the .30 release. I think all of these .23, .24, etc releases are kinda like beta releases... He's really cranking them out. It's only been 4 weeks since the .22 release. He might benefit from a testing and cleanup week... Jus' Sayin':cool:

Yeah, like I said, I think it's a mistake to turn up the max value in this instance. Similar happens with the aberrant gnosis stat.
