I have played several vampire games on Steam with only text with decisions and statistics to manage, so I can say that I like this kind of novel games (y).

Read that this game has a combat system, and the lack of graphics doesn't bother me too much, as the text does and helps the imagination.

100k words in five chapters, I don't know how many chapters are planned but maybe 20k is enough to see if I like it or not, I'll comment in the future.

So... Maybe dumb question, but I never bought anything from itch.
If I buy the current version, will I have access to future versions too, or would I have to buy each update separately?

You get full access to all future updates and versions!

It actually depends on the creator on itch if they select "Set different pricing for this file" to on/off. If off, it means a player purchases access to all files and future files under a project. This is what I have setup.

So is it only the demo available here? The changelog talks about later chapters so it's a bit confusing

Game over in the first chapter :KEK:!

The cultists slaughtered me mercilessly, I thought I could escape somehow and that the demon was deceiving me.

It's trial and error, but now I know how to get to chapter 2 :WeSmart:.

The extended demo here on f95zone contains the first three chapters.

Chapter 4 and 5 are currently only on itch.io. note: it is a work in progress, so there's more chapters being written. The current scope of the story is about 13 chapters.

Unfortunately fate dealt Taru a shitty hand. :D

Little bug is this demo: when you open the journal, the general world image doesn't load, but the city map image and the others do.
I opened the html file with Chrome.

Ah, thanks for reporting! I'll add this to my todo list. PickerLewd

I modified the f95zone description with a new section " f95zone extended demo version features " just to make it more clear what you get when you download the f95 version Dark Iron

I should add that the image that won't load is in the game's "images" folder, and I was able to see it with my photo reader outside the game.

It just doesn't load in the game, but as the game is text only, it doesn't matter much if you can't see the map all the time (y).

I figured out the issue. Somewhere in my pipeline it has been stored as .jpg, but the game is looking for a .png. Easy fix, will be available during the next update.

Between the spanking, the shibari, and now this glorious threesome scene, I really like this "submissive to everyone who'll look at me too sternly" story we get with the right choices. Delicious writing as always.

Major announcement for Taru's Infernal Pledge!

Digital artist tacinky has joined the team, and has already started creating art for the game!

tacinky specializes in hand-drawn digital art, and is an amazingly talented artist. Check out his blue sky page:

I'm looking forward to the collaboration, and to sharing more info with you all! Stay tuned for art devlogs coming your way in the near future!

Cheers,
FlimsyLegs

I guess he will be drawing the main scenes of chapter 6, great news, it never hurts to have some drawings to go with the reading :PogChamp:.

Actually, he will start from Chapter 1 and slowly but surely replace all art in the game. The placeholder AI generated images will be phased out over the coming months.

We'll be seeing some truly high quality NSFW drawings, with characters and backgrounds and all.

Wow, even better, another reason to play from the beginning.

And... thanks for the warning about the wrong map extension, I've fixed it myself.

Alright, v0.5.0 is out! Devlog:

The first 10 or so passages in Chapter 1 have been replaced by new high-quality digital hand-drawn images by tacinky! Also, 50% of Chapter 6 has been written and added to the game.

The extended demo version available here on f95 will not contain story-related updates this time, but it will replace as much art as possible with tacinky's art, i.e. the first 10 passages will contain the proper art. (update pending)
