I'm Back!

So, let me start this update with an apology for my supreme lack of posting on F95 over the past few months. Last time I posted here, I decided to take a break from stalking the thread for a few days to recharge my batteries. A few days turned into a few weeks, and then the snowball effect occurred. College started picking up (I'm a full-time student fml) which ate up a lot of my time, and then my personal life started taking hits (My best friend and I had a falling out. There's no hope for repair. It is what it is). Amidst this, I neglected a lot of parts of my life, this thread being one of them. Tbh I forgot F95 existed until a buddy brought it up recently and I was like, "f95? OH SHI-"

And now we're here. It was unfair and irresponsible of me to neglect my space here. Let me just say, the engagement and feedback I've gotten from F95 have gone unmatched, and for that I will forever be grateful to this community. I'm not only thankful to the players, but also the moderators and their infinite patience to assist my near-incompetency when it comes to uploading images and files. So, thank you.

Allow me to make it up to you all with some good news: Development never stopped. While I neglected a lot of my market and network presences for the game, I never stopped working on it. It was the only thing that kept me anchored while dealing with life's BS. So, here ya go. Version 0.52 (Not save game compatible with older versions)

  • 370+ New Renders, 4 New Sex Scenes (Three of which involve the player, the fourth being a lesbian scene. Among these are rough sex in a cave, poolside anal, death by dryads, and more).
  • Over a dozen new maps full of plot, loot, and enemies.
  • A bunch of new characters, including two fully-fledged companions with their own talents
  • More music
  • Other bug fixes, grammatical fixes, and QoL
  • Finally added the Optional-NTR tag
I also removed that controversial Sheva/Rapto scene that caused some chaos in the thread (It was a great discussion btw). There was just no way for me to rewrite it to not be too much while still keeping it. So, I removed it and came up with a better conclusion to Rapto's story which will be explored later. I also think Sheva's character is properly established before the scene without going overboard.

Final update is that I removed the Priscilla/Alexus and Sheva Gangbang scenes. These kinds of monster-sex and "defeat" scenes will no longer be in the game for a couple reasons:
  1. I've gotten numerous messages and comments of players who loved the game suddenly being turned-off by this content. I came to the conclusion that they took away from/didn't coincide with the overall narrative and theme of the game.
  2. Its more work and I want to the finish the damn game.
  3. I don't feel that strongly about them myself.
  4. The scenes aren't important or applauded enough for me to ignore 1, 2 and 3.
I might release an optional patch sometime after the full-game's launch that will put these scenes and other planned-scenes of the same kind into the game for players who want it. Maybe.

Apologies again for my lack of posting, and a final big thank you for everyone whose played the game and supported me.

I'm still going strong.

So...

... what kind of NTR ?

There's only one NTR scene right now.

There's two other planned NTR scenes,

. And yes, they're all optional for anyone else who wants to know.

Just to be clear, NTR isn't the main focus of the game, but its there where it'd make sense to be. That's kind of my philosophy for the porn in this title.

You don't intend to put animation in your game, do you? :unsure:
It was cool, but with animation in the sex scenes it would be much more interesting.(y)
Not at this point, no. I can do animations, but RPGMaker is difficult with the implementation. I might've found a way to do it, and I know its certainly possible, but it'd require too much re-development at this point.

You're correct though, animations would be better, and I do plan on finding a way to do it eventually. Hell or high water.

What I read is "some girl, I dont even know, fucks with another men". This is not even close to ntr.
Tbh, I think that scene really build/show her character, she did what she have to survive and that is how her thinking/life was. I really liked the last ver with how it end for them.. the obsession of his and the digust of her. But many people have "ntr" phobia. Even if they are not LI of mc, people will still complain because its not mc fucking them..

Not the first time some dev have to change/cut content..

Just a suggestion, maybe show the sis part of story of how she react and what happened after mc is gone as flashback for player information and give some sense of time moving? And also if mc keep the guy as slave, what happened to him.. or will this come much later?

Exactly.

I'm not entertaining arguments about what is or is not NTR anymore. I've been blasted by the other side for not tagging NTR when I held the same opinion as EnterYourNameHere.

However, most people interpret NTR as "female characters bang anyone whose not me". Which, if we're being honest, isn't NTR. But that's most people's perception, and I can understand if someone is frustrated by that popping up in the game without warning, given most porn titles only allow the MC to bang people.

So, the NTR tag is staying. If that threatens anyone's delicate sensibilities, I offer you this:

Just play the game. If you don't like it, then stop. If you do, then keep playing.

Don't worry, everything in the prologue will be resolved later in the 3rd/final act. Kind of my way of tying everything from the beginning back together with the ending.

And there will be some cuts of what the other characters (the antagonists essentially) are doing while the MC and co are running around. Kind of like a, "Meanwhile, over there..." sort of cutscene.

The scene of Shiva with Rapto isnt avoidable, right? Because there this choice-no-choice that mislead me thinking there was a way to grabe her arm or something like that.

Yeah, Sheva should be in your party when you meet back up. I have a good idea of what could be causing that though, so I'll look into it.
has this been fixed? and if so, how far back do I need to reload to fix it?
I downloaded v.0.52 and imported a save where I am in the night before.
went to my tent. talked to the slave girl... and went through cutscene. then she "joined" my party, yet was again not in battle.

In the next screen, just choose to go to sleep instead of following her.

0.52 isn't save game compatible with earlier versions. You'll have to start a new game. That's what's causing the bug.

Its an RPGMaker quirk where every time I create a new companion in the database, it requires a fresh new game. Or else, the actor will not really load.

unfortunate. but not entirely unexpected.
you should add this info to the changelog. needing to start a new game instead of importing old saves is worthy of mentioning there.
something like
> Combat Companion not fighting by your side was fixed. but due to RPGM limitations require you to start a new game for the fix to apply.

Will going for Shiva's path block you from the other girls? Because every time I did anything with her text would pop out saying the others will remember that.

I'm assuming this game will never have a harem/throuple type of ordeal with the female characters, because I had sex with Sheva in the cave, but it seems that has closed off my route with Awiti entirely, based off of her reaction to me attempting to kiss her during the training session in Pac Octa. If so, would anyone be so kind as to let me know if I romance/sex a LI, I'm stuck on said romance route (without reloading prior saves).
