WHAT THE HELL PANDA!!! Are you trying to kill me?
This is too much. My heart can't... take... this... much... wholesomeness.

But, I cannot stop.
Please help!

Harem and incest possible?

Lord Pandaman Games you have created a cute little story here. I liked it a lot!
Perhaps the whole "we haven't seen each other for 10 years but everything is cool now" thing is a bit hard to believe, but I get it's the way you found to get the story going.

Dare I say Maria is the prettiest female character I've ever seen in any game? She's absolutely stunning. I guess you must have customized her face a great deal because I don't remember seing her before.

May you confirm whether there will be other possible female love interests in the future? Just out of curiosity.
Anyway it feels like the game is going to be a slow burn. Nothing wrong with that if updates are as long as the current ones. At least the story is movind forward nicely.

BTW ask for the dev badge!

Cheers!

we already have confirmation of harem, no incest though

 

[Aristos]

What? A harem, really?
I was just joking. I thought Maria would most probably be the only LI in the story,
and I was OK with that.

Where have you read it, please?

EDIT: OK I see it's in the OP in the planned content. Wow, that really surprised me... Thanks for pointing it out, I totally wrote it as a joke.

Developer Notes Spoiler on OP.

 

[Aristos]

Someone with more artistic talent than a brick (i.e. than me ) should make a couple of sigs of Maria

You can request one in gfx request thread
Those guys make really awesome signs

Hmm I didn't know that thread existed. I guess I haven't explored many areas of this site.
Thanks!

Can't imagine her ladyship sharing the woodsman with any other which makes the Dev's opening declaration that "P of P WILL have plenty of sexual content, don't worry" all the more intriguing. It seemed to me from the "getgo", that the difference in rank between the two friends, coupled with the societal constraints and suffocating moral strictures of the time, pretty much start the whole odyssey off painted firmly into the narrowest of corners.

Regardless of that, I would suspect that the two will end up wedded at the conclusion. Presumably, in the absence of offspring on the part of the uncle, the woodsman is to be appointed the uncle's successor and inheritor of his title and estates when the latter falls in some vicious skirmish along the way. This will then raise the protagonist socially high enough to be eligible to take the lady's hand in marriage.

How can he even inherit anything from Maria's uncle if they're not family and Maria is alive? He's not even a nobleman.
If that's the case and the uncle is really childless, Maria seems to be her only living relative and would inherit everything. Indeed, as an only child she must have already inherited her parents' estate and titles. Her uncle's death would only mean that she's now the most powerful and influential member of the family (probably the only one), and so she will have more freedom to marry anyone she wishes. Who knows? Our MC's exploits during the expedition may gain him a title from the King in the long run.
In any case, he will make a lucky consort

If harem is planned, I'm wondering how the hand-holding will look...

Scandalous.

I stand corrected, Aristos. Yes, you are, of course, right. I guess I don't know what I am talking about. I'm not sure what I was thinking, if anything at all, when I wrote that twaddle.

Still, this remains a very entertaining yarn wrapped within a fascinating scenario, not to mention the exquisite rendering of scenes and, in particular, the freshness and radiance of the exceedingly pretty girl in the lead. It will surely be intriguing, to say the least, to follow this tale as it unfolds towards what would seem to be an almost inevitable happy ending and I do refer, of course, to them both when I say that.

There are many ways the story could unfold from here. With to much time in my head and thinkning about the opening act that we currently have I could easyly see our main protagonists finding a "truth" on those southern lands only to come back to their Island to fight the "lie" propagated by their now old religion. That would be a way to alow the characters to forsake their prudish ways and even alow Maria to be with the man for whoom she fell for. On the other hand it is Pandaman's story and with the amazing work he's pooring in this game I am sure he will impress us with more twists and turns than just that.

On an other note, the MC and Maria are in somewhat of a "honeymoon" period where everything is bliss. It is important to rekindle their relationship and base it on solid footings. I could see them clashing with one an other on subjects like social standing, education or money in the future and it would be that footing that would hold them together and make us as players do all we can to resolve the said conflict. But then again, depending on where Pandaman wants the storry to go he has to manage his most valuable resource, time, versus entertainment value. Do we realy want to see those two clash with one an other? For now, for myself I only want to see their relationship deepen and grow.

 

[Pandaman Games]

There's definitely a bit of a honeymoon phase effect going on - they'll definitely have some conflict as they hash out their relationship, but it'll all make sense.

In terms of harem content, there will be a Maria-only and a harem path, but it won't bifurcate for a little while. You can imagine which path Maria would currently prefer, so you can pretty clearly see where conflict would naturally arise.

[Ragnar]

Interesting premise and the main girl looks fresh.
The writing is a bit redundant so far :
- I love you.
- But I love you much.
- We have to wait.
- Yeah, this is wrong cause we're not married.
And so on.
Idk, tell us about the world, its religion, races, history or just start the journey.
A couple of victorian age lovebirds dialogues aren't that interesting.

Conflict?...
in a relationship between man and woman...?
all making sense...?
