Thanks for the answer! I like it when you have freedom of choice it makes your decisions meaningful. Awesome!

I agree! I think the NTR/Pure routes matter more knowing that they were your choices. I'm honestly surprised more games don't do it, so I was like "Fine, I'll do it myself"
Would you be willing to add some skill to those choices?
Meaning in order to avoid ntr you would have to actually do something more than just pick a diferent choice? Like win a certain fight or reach a certain goal.

By "choice" I mean there's an Affinity System in game. Basically, doing certain things (or failing to do them) will raise/lower Affinity between certain characters. Characters won't do the sexy sex unless they have a high enough Affinity with each other. For example: Alant and Valeria start the game with high Affinity with each other. If Alant neglects her, or starts fucking things up then he'll lose Affinity with her, and the Legendary Hero will gain Affinity with her. That kind of stuff happens between all of the characters

I think the system needs some tweaking as it can definitely be broken up a bit, but I feel with each update you'll flesh out more things as you get more feedback.
Is there a "mental roadmap" of sorts of where the next-ish updates will go in terms of content?

Hope this affects the windows peeping and it being repeatable daily scenes. I also hope when you added the...
- Morning(default)
- Afternoon(same as morning)
- Evening(orange hue)
- Night(dark out with crickets sounds) cycle.
They're doing other things. For example, Catherine who's usually patrolling every morning is either in the bath house in the inn by afternoon or is in her room relaxing on her bed combing her hair. Which can be seen through her window or bath house. Once certain bad affinity is affected, the scenes alternates her kissing Zak with Valeria/Alant POV. Could be a cool way of making ntr or vanilla scenes.

Yeah next update will be the start of Alant's POV, but after that I'll branch out more since the foundation of the game will be complete. The update after that I plan on adding more exploration to the game as well as more content for either Alant or Zak's story (depending on who my patrons vote for)

I definitely want to add more interactions and change up where characters are and what they're doing based on Affinity and stuff like that. I haven't decided on a day/night cycle yet (I might include one in a future update) but that would be fun and I'll definitely consider it since it seems a handful of people do want one

Oh by the way, if you play Zak. Definitely write in that because hes an adventurous hero, he isn't tied down to one place. Probably his specific story conclusion is him taking his woman(or harem) with him leaving the village regardless of who you played as. With Alant being ok with it if hes with Valeria. Valeria pov is her choice of leaving with him or not. And Zak being to take them all with his wife Valeria.

Oh I have other game/story ideas involving Zak! I want to focus on this game for now, but there are other adventures (and women) for Zak to explore!

I have different endings planned depending on who you play as and what choices you make - one of them is Zak's harem ending
here is two suggestion one skip the intro straight into the village 2 skip/fast forward conversations

Now that the initial gameplay of all characters has been released what do you plan to do next? What do you think the next steps are going to be?
Also only if you want and it´s not too spoilery, could you tell us a little bit of what things will we find on this new update?

I'm going to let my Patrons vote in a couple of days to see what they want most, but it'll either be an update focusing on expanding Alant's content with Val and Cat or expanding Zak's content with Val, Cat, and Danica (Valeria's path will get updated alongside both updates with relevant scenes). But I definitely wanna do "wake up" content in the next couple of updates for sure!
I'm also gonna add a new region to explore with the next update!

Hey everyone! Shrine of Embers Version 0.3 is out now on my Patreon (I'll release it for free next month, but if you wanna play it now it's on my Patreon)
I've added the start of Alant's storyline, which means all 3 Main Characters are now playable!

As Valeria: Keep your relationship to Alant, cheat on him with Zak, or lose him to Catherine
As Zak:Steal Valeria, Catherine, Danica, or all 3 at once
Relevant scenes have been added to each of the other playthroughs (for example: if you play as Valeria and Catherine builds up high Affinity with Alant, you can look in Catherine's window to see them going at it) Don't forget to check the Crystal Ball to check Affinity and tore-live scenes
