Woah, an update is out already ? Almost missed it
About the comic series, when i first read it, i thought it took place before the timeline in the game, then i realized it is a decade later, seems that nothing major have changed during the period

is this game have a any anal scene ?

Oh no, not a fan of anal, stick with cowgirls !

 

[Lou111]

Where is a rape tag? Or if it's male who is raped it's not a rape?

You can't rape the willing I'm afraid.

Well, aboot 8 decades, 87 years. There've been a lot of changes in the political landscape and such but they are still in the same world so there's going to be a lot of similarities and familiar places. Plus the comic takes place in Atlathka, a city to the east of Kaldea.

I just realized i typed "decade" instead of "century", i meant nearly 100 yrs later, haha

Still, i don't think we need anals , let's just focus on creating romantic affections between the MC and the girls !

The comic is thrilling to read, just like the game. And i like the fact that it's a fantasy game but also presses heavily on political matters , it can practically addresses real life issues

 

[JThusDank]

Can anyone drop build 15 so I can play the patreon version?

You can't spell Romance without Anal! At least that's how I teach my English lessons.

Thanks a ton! I do a lot of studying when writing to make sure what we're doing is accurate to the times. I generally really love history so I enjoy it quite a bit! We do involve politics but it's more in regards to politics of the setting and the time. So we're considering.

On another neat note we've recieved two video reviews!

Didn't know you love history, id rather study the past through games than attending boring classes
and congrats on the video review

I did aboot 30 hours of research on medieval and ancient research and also spoke with a few practicing nurses and such which I've applied in a few places in the game. If you speak to Archibald, the enchanter with a giant vat of caffeine behind him (lol yup, it's a caffeine tincture that's super popular in Kaldea) he actually will speak about antiseptic theory and the differences of things. Many in the world are moving away from the 5 humors and towards septic and sepsis as theory, the medical university on Ohmes being one of the leaders in the world. They even have a compound microscope! It's so rare and took so much time and investment to make it'd be more valuable than a village. Like seriously, they could have commissioned multiple galleons or caravels instead of making it.

It's pretty low power still but they are able to see there are organisms smaller than the human/elven/lizard-folk/ogre/etc eye can possibly see. Some of the most brilliant minds in Ohmes are theorizing that these tiny "minutiae demons" may have something to do with illness but they don't know what or why or how.

This medical research also was applied to forms of birth control being used in the world today, Osh'to's quest, etc.

Then boats... ho-boy just tons of hours into researching boats lol. Unfortunately I was a little late to help design the ship but originally the masts ended at the first floor haha. That issue bugged me so much I managed to get Arbuz to tie the masts all the way to the end and even had some things in the ship moved around. I then explained it away as in the ship itself is unfinished but they had no choice but to sail it since the captain was running out of money on his loan.

OH! AND LOANS! Holy shit don't even get me started on money and commerce! Ancient banks were so much more than people think now. People usually think there were no banks back then and people who do believe they were these big things with labelled bags of money from people lol.

But no they were extremely sophisticated and kept meticulous record of who paid how much money into the bank and they actually did business loans, personal loans, lines of credit etc... people think medieval/ancient persons were dumb. They sure as hell weren't lol, they just had more limited tools to sample and observe the world.

Oh, and porn.

Do you guys plan to release the music out to people and/or Patreon supporters sooner than the game is finished? The music of this game is fantastic, particularly Moment of Solace by Psychix. It's absolutely fantastic. I asked about it once on Discord and was told that it wasn't going to be released out there until the entire game is complete, which saddens me as it will likely be a long long time before that happens.

Is there any route that one could take to obtain even just Moment of Solace as a track alone?

Please give my regards to the guys who manage the music on your team, they've done a fantastic job. Sometimes I just load up the game for the sole purpose of listening to the music haha, it would be lovely to obtain some of it.

Yes, actually. We plan to release our OST on a limited Vinyl only release and lease the record to coffee clatches, shopsp, cafes, and holes. But no chain coffee stores in the hopes that Ackk Studios will notice and recognize us as truly hip and with it developers.

lol but seriously, we will be releasing an OST sometimes, probably distributed via Steam and have the tracks on a youtube channel. I believe Psychix has a few of our songs on his sound cloud right now

You must be registered to see the links

over here. But yeah we will be only really releasing the sound track later after release as I said on discord haha.

We all kinda have a hand in directing how our music will sounds. Well, Arbuz, deck, and myself since we are in a chat with Psy and we hear the sound first etc. If we aren't sure on something we'll ship it to the rest of our team and see if the track is going the right way or not.

Moment of Solace one of the tracks on Psy's sondcloud... actually I think he has all of the sound track on there? All of the ones except for the track made by Nubbinownz (yes, THAT nubbinownz, yes.) and we have a track by Aoiichisan. I forget which track Aoiichisand did though.

Like what you said, true it was long ago, i'm amazed you put so much effort into the research
So is that the time when the game is set in ? How do the common people in Athlanka react to new technology, do they call it magic ?

 

[Valaska]

Yeah, the first compound lenses were worth tens of thousands.

The game year is 628, PFF the webcomic is in 715 in the worlds' time. Atlathka will get new innovations and things quicker than most cities as a trade hub of the world and Kaldea also is a trade hub but they (at the point of the game) are just getting established an in a massive boom of trade and money. Part of the conflict between Atlathka and Kaldea tbh.

Atlathkans will only react to technology that's magical in nature as magic. Nothing in the world is so far advanced that it would be like "whoa! Are you from the gods!?" People will typically assume something is mechanical in nature. Anything they can't explain or dumbfounded by would probably be like "Huh... is that magical?" And it probably is haha. Magic can be used as an extremely efficient and a "ahead of the times power source." In the webcomic you see Hami's arm and a guys' reaction to it for example, Nameless' has a pretty muted reaction to it as well.

Though the game is years before the webcomic, so examples of that level of magically driven technology are very rare. Ohmes' telescope is one of a kind in the world (and was at risk of a fire in the early days of the Ohmish civil wars before the current detente started).

So yeah people are pretty up with it. You'd need to leave cities and even villages and fine like... nomadic tribes or isolated people who are far away from the rest of the world and its state to have people think that mechanical contraptions without magic, are seen as magic.

Oh wow, thank you so much! I had honestly searched for Moment of Solace for hours originally and could never find anything about it online. Thanks very much for your response, and best of luck with the game

Cool, so there is more history to this game. I always wondered if technology would ever grow stronger than magic in PFF.

Conflict between cities, then there are political "families" rivaling each other, do they affect the city's goverment ? How the common people deal with it

Conflict between cities, then there are political "families" rivaling each other, do they affect the city's goverment ? How the common people deal with it

Well according to the game and comic
i think it can usually affect ship's delivery (i bet valaska did a search on this) and also the city's trading system.
Not even sure if it's totally safe to send money to ancient banks back then
