I wouldn't hate the incompatible saves if the combat in the game wasn't so simultaneously forced and boring.
I won't complain too much about being 'forced' to rewatch sex scenes again in a replay, lol that's suffering I'll handle, or reread lines renpy basically let's me skip if it helps the devs as they tweak the game but the combat in this game? The pointless grindfest it becomes? Making us do it over and over every time the saves don't work even though it never or rarely changes and never improves?
They need to put an "I Win" cheat button in the combat menu until it's either fun and not grind or until they resolve the save issues.

'Remaking' the entire game would achieve nothing. (Actually less than nothing).
Every feature added to the engine will cause saves to crash, that's it and there isn't a great deal we can do about it other than try and get essential features implemented as quickly as possible.
-We will add cheat codes to make life easier for our patrons.
-We will 'attempt' to make the engine as robust as possible which might MIGHT make your save not break so much but there is no guarantee, especially with features still being implemented.
-We can provide the plaster aid of saves, which will become increasingly difficult as the game becomes and more RPG choice based.
But the more features we add, inventory systems, navigation, crafting, many other traditional RPG elements, the more old saves are extremely likely to bug out.
...With that said, we update monthly and we make reasonable progress with every build, and we're still looking for any alternative solutions to make the saves work (somehow) while we implement the features...Suffice to say, this is the most challenging part of production for us right now.

I agree on the combat or gold cheat.
The H scenes are locked behind increasing amounts of gold, yet there isn't really a way to speed up acquisition of gold.
Sounds like something that will be fleshed out in the future, but currently the game is missing a core element of any RPG: Character progression. Currently there is no way of making combat faster or getting more gold per combat really. So instead of getting stronger and fighting stronger enemies for better rewards, we keep repeating the same fight 100s of times.
Pushing the carrot on the stick farther and farther away without increasing the speed of the player just leads to frustration

There are only 7 scenes with her, go carefully with her through the story and don't miss anything.
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content.
Log in or register now.
I had to go into the game folder, explore the files directory to check the content and pregnancy feature in the game. So yes, it may have been an experimental feature.

So it seems that the last 2 Arwen scenes aren't implemented yet. Thank you for clarifying.
Is it possible that the MC can level up? How can I change into the parasite form in the fights?
I don't know if anyone noticed this before but the parasites are like Venom and Rampage anyways does anyone have a updated walkthrough?

Great game with nice writing and good potential but the gallery needs to be reworked or add at least some slider or something. Gallery on android is absolutely useless because of the scrolling.
I replayed this game again for v145 but for some reason I cannot get the sequences for Ves the orc to advance - is there a prerequisite to moving ahead with her, I can only find her in her tent now and it has only 2 questions - are you going hunting and something like see anything unusual
All right, played through the whole thing and overall, I think it's a pretty good game; very nice variety in waifus, some depth of content even though the game is very lore heavy: I'm neutral on the story, as the dev havsa certain tone you want to instill on the player and the devs have taken the consideration to adapt it to the players. The dev don't shy away from more serious topics: the orc is one of the better interactions between a colonizer and a slave I've seen in a porngame.
The gameplay though, is odd. The dev seems to want the game to have RPG style systems, including equipment, potions and turn based combat. Well and good, if you were working off of RPGmaker, but this is a renpy game. The visual novel genre does have it's roleplaying games, but these generally didn't adhere to those types because it's asking it to do something that it isn't made to do.
As someone else mentioned earlier, there is a very strange lack of progression; combat, after the prologue, is mostly about figuring out when to use potions. Having your health always go to full between combats means they lack pressure, but in a way it is good that every combat encounter is designed with simplicity in mind; far too many devs seem to think that they can somehow combine a complex videogame and a pornogame and have both parts come out great: this isn't really possible for small, often solo devs to do in any real way and even if they do manage it, they spend time and resources on it that might have been spent streamlining UIs, writing more smut or just living a human life. (this is allowed, ya know)
If you're going in the direction of adding equipment, or levels or such, reconsider into having these system be simple and tie into the actual gameplay, which is bedding waifus and breeding them. Remember things like the mining minigame in ME2, which infamously turns an action rpg into a bad game of hot and cold. Ultimately, you have to try and remember that what you want is to tie as many systems well together into the core: instead of buying random equipment and having many types, you can instead tie them into gaining favour with the love interests: this means that players are rewarded and encouraged into things they want to do anyway.
Alternatively, seeing as Spawn is very obviously an influence on the game, you might have the character and the parasite gain strength from fucking and to a lesser degree killing. You already have a good system for that, with infection, but changing into from a purely negative system into one with give and take is narratively and game-systematically satisfying for a player. It doesn't have to be much: small additions to energy, health and maybe damage as major milestones would still meaningfully impact the game. You could instead have equipment grant abilities: this would also mean that making fewer, more unique pieces of equipment would work out.
Obviously, you probably have your own ideas and systems that you are already working on and will probably implement. It's easy being an ideas guy so take all of this with a grain of salt coming from someone who is really just an anonymous stranger.
The love interests are set up fairly nicely and feel like individual characters. The dev, or the artist or both, have the type of "big muscles, big tits" and I applaud their taste, but there's always the question of maybe, possibly, there existing other body types. Petite, a bit chubby, what have you. The childhood friend comes sort of close but she strangely just disappears after her scene in the tavern; I take it this is more a remnant of the game being in early stages yet, same as the, odd, inclusion of corruption which as far as I can tell doesn't do anything.
As for the UI, it suffices. The game map has quest updates but in general, progression is vague but it seems that is a work in progress that is progressing. Overall, a fine piece of fiction with plenty of promise.
