Surprising amount of content for such an early build and its mostly pretty good too. The combat system is a massive drag eventually just made an auto clicker for it. Overall actually pretty hyped.

Oh yeah, except for a couple cases, for every fight it's come down to: Put up shield on MC and Markus's first turns, use "weaken" with Marcus on Target A, use MC to deliver heavy hit on target A, use Markus to inflict Weaken on Target B, use MC to inflict heavy attack on target A again, use Markus's basic attack to wipe out target A, use MC to inflict heavy hit on Target B, us Markus to inflict basic attack on target B, use MC to inflict basic attack on target B--over, and over, and over.


I can't complain about how much gold those pink shards bring in, though. That's an anti-grind feature if I ever saw one.

We're in the first stages of overhauling combat from the bare bones it is now. I.e, working on ,getting inventory to affect your stats, but very soon there should be significant improvements to combat finally we believe.

Weirdly enough I can't actually get the Console to open. I've changed the line in 00console.rpy, as you do with every other renpy game, but shift-o doesn't open it, and neither does any other combination of keys so far. Does this have some specific console hotkey that's different than normal?

Ye, I just tested after deleting all renpy/game saves. And it doesn't work for me anymore either. No idea how i got it to work in the first place oO
Anyway i tinkered some more, here's the second attempt, now I've tested it after deleting everything, and it seems to work.
Try it again. As before just put it in the ParasiteBlack\game folder
What I tested specifically was starting from Act 1, not from the beginning, I don't think it should matter, but history would suggest I don't quite get renpy...
Oh, and maybe delete the old file if you still have it in your game folder
This script causes the game to crash. I wrote an unlocker which seems to work with the current version.

Just put it in the game folder with .rpy extension.

Just a short update guys to update you all on progress.
We're very excited with how things are shaping up so far so I wanted to share a little more about what's going on and talk a bit more in-depth on some of the work being done.

Outside of working on the inventory system and taking the first steps to improve combat/the game as a whole, we're in the final phases of integrating the new navigation system, (code needs some tweaking - then just need to write and design some events for it).

One of the complaints given is that travel feels kinda moot and tedious right now. 'Why do I have to click from location to location? Why can't I just jump from one end of the map to the other?'

The answer, is this missing piece of the navigation system. As you move from location to location you'll encounter a map similar to this each time that you have to move from one end of to the other to get to your new location. As you travel along the path, either set or random encounters can occur.

-Ambushed my Demorai? Meet a travelling Merchant? Camp for the night? Possible secret lewd encounters? The possiblities are endless and we hope, will give the world of Alderay a MUCH grandeur feel as you move around as well as open up a lot more strategic play.

-Following integrating this and the inventory system fully, we'll looking into stats more, (i.e allowing the player to level up properly, adding 'levels' to enemies so every static encounter will then hopefully feel more similar to what you'd expect in a more traditional RPG.

Outside of the tech work on-going, we're still working on revamp work of some of the old sex scenes and locations, (see Adara's new bedroom, below)


I've talked briefly before about May's content update and how it will involve finally getting the Adventurer's Guild up and running, but I'm doing my best to keep some stuff under wraps, but for a small teaser of a fraction of stuff to come...


(WIP - above)

And that's all for now. :)

As a final note with the month entering it's final week. I want to emphasize that the upcoming tech build will NOT have much new content. The focus of tech builds is to improve the core gameplay. May's content build is planned to be huge and hopefully, game changing, but it's important people's expectations with tech builds are tempered. The last thing I nor anyone on the team wants is anyone feeling disappointed.

Thank you all for your support,
You guys are awesome, and we're very excited for what's to come soon.

This does not work, getting an error message upon launch when placing this under game folder.
Enter rhapsody as a cheat code. It does the same thing.
It is important to note that the code works with 0.147 only. It changes with each update. So for later versions, you need to either:
Become a patron,
Hope that someone leaks the code,
Or decompile the game and find the code by yourself.

While it looks promising for exploration, this could make it rather tedious to, f.Ex., visit people in the desert.
And random encounters have many ways to be done wrong, and few to be right. We'll see how that turns out.

How can I trigger the gay scene in the game
At some point you'll get a note that an 'elf' is showing up at the brothel, however it's infrequent. Keep checking nightly until you run across Dros in the Brothel and that starts down the entire Gay, Trap, Shemale content there.

This thing is badly in need of either an updated walkthrough or a checklist or something as while I assume I'm done with current content, I'm not actually sure.
Myu doesn't want to fuck anymore, apparently I've worn her out and she's too tired to do anything.
Nijah keeps giving birth over and over each day.
69ing or baths is as far as Ves goes.
Blacksmith chick is refusing to get knocked up, no matter how many womb shots she takes.
Wolf chick is happily taking the dick, but not doggy-style, weirdly.
I'm quite happily ignoring mom and that annoying school chick since I friend-zoned both of them.
Still can't bang the captain of the guard, the bartender, the librarian, or the stuck up whore.

There is a gallery, it's just in a sort of odd place.
Go to the pleasure district, visit the witches hut.
Choose the 'past' option.
You'll be able to see if you've missed any scenes with the girls you've already scene at least 1 scene with.

Hold up, you can fuck best gir...... I mean Elena now? All I've been able to do so far is bathe with her and then see the scene where Caspian jerks off to her where she's either in her lingerie or nude. Also Nijah can get knocked up?

Ah my bad, she just pussy-glides you after you buy her lingerie, not actual fucking. But yeah, Nijah gets pregnant and she's given birth to like 30 kids (the same one over and over) by now. :ROFLMAO:

Hey guys,

Just a brief heads-up, progress is still on-going, but not much news to give this time.
I'm going to do some more bug-fixes later and do a test-run later following some of the re-balancing we've done so far, hopefully shouldn't see any major issues with the tech build but aside from that, work's continuing as usual.

On a different note, introducing 'The Red Arrows' Celeste's S-tier Adventurer party fully revealed for the first time. Vote on your favorite design below!


1.) The legendary Hero Celeste! One of the greatest Adventurers in the land whose exploits have been spread far and wide. To many, Celeste is seen as the next great Hero to follow from Newheart's tragic demise. From her passionate speeches to her great beauty, courting Celeste has been the dream of many a young man...

2.) Boraga Uran - 'The great bear of the North' Born in the rural outskirts of Angmurus, Boraga made a name for himself as a mighty slayer of beasts, soon attracting the eye of Celeste who bought him into Adventurer Party... It is said Boraga has the stength to tear a man in half with his bare hands.

3.) Cynthia Aego - 'The dancing flame' - A legendary archer known for her great kindness to the common folk and great tales of romance often gossiped over by the masses, it is said, even despite losing her eye in a tragic battle against the Demorai, she still never misses her shot. Cynthia became the final member to join Celeste's party.

4.) Segarius Rhovak - 'The Green Knight' - The legendary charming green Knight became famous following his many noble exploits and tales of heroism. Often swooned over for his handsome looks by women everywhere, and envied for his legendary sword-skills by most would-be-adventurers,

5.) Jadis Sunmore - 'The purple enchantress' - The oldest of the Red arrows, a powerful enchantress with an almost unnatural mastery of her magic leaving many to speculate she stands on the verge of becoming granted the rank of 'Grand' soon, aside from her great power often helping turn the tide of many a battle, her magic tricks and displays have wowed audiences from across the realm.
