Alderian news! (progress continues...)

Hey guys,

just touching base to let you all know progress is still underway. We're still gathering assets and animations though we are making steady progress, been squashing some bugs and setting up the frameworks for the quest(s) in the next update.

We've had some interesting submissions so far with regards to scenes and things you want to see for the competiton, but we definately need a few more before we can pull together some kind of poll. Remember, if you're a patron and want to put forward a possible entry, put it in the patron-only chat of the discord (or, here only if you don't have discord).

I know these updates are a little 'short' right now but there's not much else to add other the usual "We're still getting all the pieces together."

As we get closer and closer to assembling the next major build properly, we'll hopefully have some way more interesting news to share with you guys, but until then, thank you all for your support as always :)

Mysterious gem usage? And who is the blacked out characrer I believe between Ves and the brothel palet swaps?

Assumed the dark elf or the brothel madam (even hacking in billions of gold 10k is too much?), apparently the blue futa and elf underwear maker have scenes too?

The mysterious gem will have a usage one day.

The blonde brothel girl has no sex scenes currently, so no amount of coin cheating will fix that :p
The elf clothes maker has scenes, the blue futa does not yet have scenes.

Alderian news (Late edition!)

Hey all,

Sorry for the recent radio silence, we've been firing on all cylinders this side working on this latest update still.
First off, I'd like to thank everyone for their patience, this is by far the biggest, more intense update we've done so far, with multiple characters getting lewd scenes, multiple quests being added and overall some amazing enrichment of the world, we're all so excited to show you guys when it's done.

I can't say much more than that still for now, but here are some awesome teasers for you guys as a thank you for not just your continued support, but the growing support we've been getting over these last few months. Feels awesome to see the discord (slowly) coming to life, reading your theories on what's going on and more.

The update is planned be out mid to late June.



As always, thank you all for your support,
without you guys, we couldn't do what we do,
love,


-The Damned Studios Team

It's good to hear that the game is finally getting the storylines updated. Feels like its been stagnant and wasn't really going anywhere. Sandbox games can be really good if there is actually stuff to do. Otherwise they are extremely boring, and makes watching paint dry seem more interesting.

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
i received an error when i started the game afterwards. it stated as this

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Im encountering the same issue too.

i deleted the persistent data and it still gives me the error
Did you try use an old save from an older build? If so, that's likely sprung the error.
Otherwise, give the deets on what caused the error and what system you're on.

Alderian news and pin-up poll results:~

Hey guys,
first things first, Suffice to say, Captain Nyx won the next Pin-up poll, you guys can expect to see her pin-up soon(ish!)

Secondly, the main update is going well, only a few missing pieces remaining that still need designing but I'm confident the build will be out mid to late this month and we're very excited for it.

One thing I'm going to do is seperate Captain Nyx's quest into two parts. One, due to the fact I believe trying to implement it all now will result in a delay, and secondly, I'm going to move the second half of her quest to coincide with the Mages of Palam quest during the next content build - This will allow players not interested in futa content to still have something to look forward to.

Secondly, we've had enough submissions in now that shortly, we'll be posting up a new poll with the idea entries. Thank you to everyone who submitted their ideas.

There's not much else to talk about right now, as usual, we're just hard at work and getting on with it. If you guys have any questions, drop us a message below or over on the discord as usual.



As always,
thank you guys so much for your support!
