[Barbiecued]

Hey Barbiecued, what an update I'd vote for the DLC option and I found some typos in the new update:

Thanks! I'll add fixes to the next update.

Edit: Also, I have no idea why Ren'Py doesn't like it when I use X in the file names of certain pictures. It's weird as hell. The images are there, it's just that Ren'Py doesn't register them for that reason alone. It works fine when you replace the X with an underscore. Unfortunately, some of them went through in my haste to fix bugs and release the game!

Love this. Glad there's a lesbian path. I like that there's horror and supernatural elements. Always enjoy seeing crazy female characters in a lesbian game. Having choices is nice especially when it involves being able to stand up for yourself, speak your mind, and being able to confront pervs. I also like how the female mc is a pure soul who's trying to make the most out of their chaotic life and is thrown into this dark world that could or is trying to corrupt them. And not corrupt as in they're someone who's a sex object with no free will who's used by creeps, pervs, douchebags, and grotesque looking people.

Barbiecued holy shit!! Chapter 5 was fucking dope!!! I love this horror vibe you have going on!

i really like the story so far, but especially in the beginning you have so much text and so few renders . a vn is living from its renders. just 2-3 renders more per scene would make it so much better and lively.

Looks like she body swapped

for me it looked more like vampiric touch from D'n'D. Taking health points and dealing necrotic damage.

This story is going to kill me with excitement, now I have to think about how to survive until the next episode, now things got more interesting with the powers and the supernatural, seriously I could easily imagine the story with its cinematics as if it were LIS or TWD Telltale.

Now the end of the episode has left me many doubts if Jenny is still alive or not, and if she survived, what kind of powers did she unlock now, if being an emissary of darkness means being away from Emma, I suppose the story will be directed at trying to get Jenny to escape from his dark destiny if you can, Carl was trash from beginning to end, no matter what reasons he has.

The moment between Jen and Emma was beautiful, I can't wait to see how their relationship develops as the plot continues.

It seems wise to focus on the main story first and then develop the ramifications of it; many games in development spend years creating alternative content that contributes little or nothing to the main story, leaving the story in an endless loop.

It's an honour to be compared to games like that, but I'm far from their level!

I'm going to release Episode 6 and then work on the voice acting parts. I'll also fill in some parts where the dialogue between characters is missing rendered images to make it more visually pleasing.

There will be some changes in the way I do things in Season 2 to be more efficient. For one, I'm currently trying my best to convert G8 characters to G9 because they use only 20-30% of the memory compared to their predecessors and are much easier to use for posing. However, I haven't had much luck with the custom-made characters I have, such as Jenny, Emma, and Ethan; they end up looking like something straight out of your worst nightmares.

Yes, that's my biggest gripe with VN games overall. As a player myself, I understand the frustration of updates that take a long time and don't progress the main story. I think it's more about the devs trying to please certain groups of players, and I understand that sentiment somewhat now, but it's still frustrating.

 

[HunterSeeker]

Whoa, sudden genre shift at the end of chapter 5 there.

 

[Enlight432]

Sex tags such as vaginal sex and anal sex are not written, what is the issue?

 

[Kagarus]

Huh, I was playing the game while reading the code (don't kink-shame!), and I stumbled on something which I think is an oversight?

Anyway, loving the game so far!

 

[Hungover00]

Banner image seems like an odd choice, after having played the game a few times. The city in the game isn't really a big character/factor. Seems too generic now.

Still love the game, just noticed when this popped back up in my feed.

 

[Birdnman993]

Any news on when episode 6 will be released? There has been no news since April.

Since I can't seem to leave a review I'll just say don't waste your time. Although it's well written and the renders are fairly good it has zero, nada, none, zilch, absolutely no sex and is a complete waste of time.

In that case, the dev really should add the "no sexual content" tag.

I myself am hoping for her to develop some exhibitionistic tendencies.

Pretty sure at some point you can lick some girls pussy in the school bathroom there might be more depending on choices made

 

[Arikania]

Licking pussy is not part of my definition of "exhibitionism". And, being hetero, licking pussies, or having mine licked by a female, doesn't really appeal to me.

Your definition of "exhibitionism" doesn't cover sexual acts in semi-public places?

Licking pussy in a school bathroom definitely counts but I wasn't focusing on the exhibitionism part you said there should be the no sexual content tag. Oral sex is sexual content.

For me, exhibitionism is more about the excitement of being exposed, and about turning heads. Soft-sex, if consensual ofc, including some groping, can be part of it indeed. It's more the lesbian aspect that you mentioned that makes it not my thing. But exhibitionism, for me, is more about finding myself admired, and should have a degree of subtlety and mildness. Hence I really enjoyed my time when I modelled at an art academy. I trust that I delivered quite some young men - and probably women too - some restless nights every now and then.

Things like going commando, or working as a waitress naked, orlive in a town where I'm the only one who is allowed and demanded to never wear clothes, or naked urban photoshoots, or being challenged to show off in public, or wear only tattooos or bodypaint. Such things are really among my fetishes.

In fact, I'm still hoping to find a game some time where I'm something like a Magical Girl with invisible armor. There is one dev here who makes such games, but unfortunately he loves extremely sized boobs, while I myself like petites more, less milfy.
