Description by dev:
"Alchemist is an adult video game set in an 18th century fantasy world with steam punk elements and magic. You are out on a hiking trip when you suddenly stumble into an unknown world, explore it's secrets and get to know it's inhabitants.
The game will revolve around your alchemy shop where all kinds of potions and ointments are sold. It will turn into your family business which you will run together with your women.
But the girls you’ll live with will have a mind of their own, keep them happy and satisfied, help resolve conflicts between them and endure their shenanigans.
All of this will of course involve a lot of sex.

I’m a software developer and have experience in art, I learned how to create my own 3D models and animate them so that I have total creative freedom with this project.
As a developer I have extensive experience with programming and will be able to solve any upcoming problems myself, I have reached a point where I have a solid base for this project but to speed up content creation I need additional resources which will allow me to spent more time on this project and after that I plan to outsource asset creation (models which will populate the environment) and I'll invest into a motion capture solution because a story driven porn game is rather animation heavy and it’s very time consuming to produce animations with good quality from scratch.
Should I get even more money than my first goal I will start to look into hiring additional people to further speed up the development process.

Get the most recent version here: *from p at re o n* the game ends currently with the first sex scene.

Bad news. The Dev has made an update, though the new build has to be postponed due to something small he couldn't fix currently as he seemed to have pulled an all nighter to get a build out. He'll see to a release after he wakes up again. Here his post:

@cooperdk

One post above you states there is a new build but it has to be postponed because of something they couldn't fix and their last post on their patreon was January 22 so it's not dead and is still active.

The story .. get it while it glistens:
Yeah, I changed to a different more manageable development model for now, I'll be regularly releasing "prototypes" for the next few months and then one bigger update which expands the story of the main game.
Once the current prototype is available to the public (18th of june) it will hopefully be less lame, it will have facial animations by then, more animations than the build luxee linked above and whatever else I get done in time. (I'm updating these prototypes rather frequently)
Purely accidental ;).


It's probably not very obvious here, the builds I'm currently releasing are small isolated pieces which I'm putting out while working towards a larger game and story update. I can just work faster that way while still being able to release something for the people who support my game. In July I will put out a prototype which will contain gameplay but only very little sex for example.
Later all of that will be tied together (with additional content) to a larger update for the main game.
The story iterations :
This is the

Sorry about going dark for a bit, I tried very hard to get this done. I had some issues that didn't work out quite the way I wanted them to. I know it sucks, but I consider this next release as the turning point for my project and I have to get it right.
Once the next version is out there will be an update for it every two weeks and it's almost done now, I managed to fix the big blocking issues I had, there are a few smaller things I will need to get fixed to make the experience smooth (and fun), but I will be mostly producing content and expanding the game from now on. (I'm really happy right now, it's all coming together finally.)
I won't have internet during the next week, which means I won't be able to post, but on the other hand there will be much fewer distractions from working on this game. I will upload the new release as soon as I have access to the internet again (Wednesday or Thursday). After that I will set up a discord and a twitter account, so that I will be able to get in more direct contact with you guys.

P.S. I will post a conclusion on last months poll once I have internet again, but the short version is that the 1% male population option has won, with the 0.1% option second, so the world will represent a very, very low amount of males in it and the women inhabiting it will act accordingly.

And the March iteration:
Got out this

The new version will be available to all patron tiers, following updates will get released to my patrons first and then the last "stable" version will get released to the next lower tier after a week delay. (Anyone with at least 40$ total pledge amount will also always have access to the most recent version)
With this update I will establish a changed development cycle where I'm able to update the project basically everytime I make changes to it through small patches (I mean like daily updates). I tried developing my own solution for this but it turned out that already has something that is working pretty well and will do for now.
If you install the itch app you will be getting the new updates automatically and if you don't want to use the app just downloading the patch and copying the files over your existing install manually should also work.
I will also finally start the discord server tomorrow.
I apologize for leaving you all hanging for so long, I just wanted to be certain that it's all going to work out (Also some personal stuff but that doesn't belong here).

That is the story so far ...

Game looks good.. but I think dev should have gone with Crytek's Cryengine V instead of Unreal.. All games in Unreal look a bit cartoonish...

I'm noob to this game dev stuff.. but I have done some small experiments in both of these engine and tbh loved the way environment turned out in Cryengine.. while in unreal it just felt plain(lack of depth) and a bit cartoonish..
