The interaction between Aspasia and Metatron was SUPER well written. I tend to have someone else when I run across Aspasia but I had Metatron this time around, and I was half expecting "FIGHT!!" given how Aspasia and Metatron were responding to each other - more so after Metatron put herself between me and Aspasia, like "you want to fight him, you need to go through me first". Ah the perils of an archangel that hasn't fully awoken all her emotions yet and a predator slime that doesn't totally understand humans!
Trying to think of a possible Megatron cameo and the only thing that comes to mind is Megatron berating Starscream ALL THE TIME. Don't think the MC would berate any of the core group that way, expect MAYBE Sam. Also, I think you are giving Sam way too much credit on how much tact she has. Yes, I like Sam, a lot, but I do think a gorilla has more tact than Sam! I think Sam has about as much tact as a bull in a China shop, myself...
being that I actually have an attention disorder '"ADD", but
I wish the game had a little less dialogue in the beginning "the forest part" or was a bit quicker in plot progression, I found it really slow & ended up having to stop & take a break after I got sucked into the Portal.
I did enjoy the Dialogue I just felt that it was quite a lot "too dialogue heavy" for a start of a game.
I'll pick it back up & continue later this week, Hopefully the game picks up enough to satiate the ADD demons in my brain.
Sorry if this isn't helpful, just giving some input from us ADD / ADHD heads out their.
The back-and-forth banter is meant to help set the game's tone. It is more... static, maybe, than future adventures? Over time I imagine more CG/backgrounds and/or dialogue choices could help a little though.
YAY! Unexpected birthday gift! (My birthday was yesterday)
Curiosity question, will I ever be in danger with having both Aether and Nether corruption at the same time? Or will it be like Sarah and somehow make it work?
Considering how many people mistakingly call Metatron Megatron (heck, it took me a looooooong time to quit calling her Megatron) think Megatron should have a cameo somewhere, like "I thought I saw a robot that looked quite menacing" or something!
I'm not going to like, surprise game over you for having both. You just won't be able to bring them both to 100 without following that hybrid path, which I intend to try to balance with focusing entirely on one or the other.
LMAO a Megatron joke might not be too bad. I'll see if he has any particularly quotable or memeable dialogue as an inspiration.
Megatron best girl. Also how much will Mc using those Angel magic affect him in future like will the content be quite different as there was a warning before learning to train it.
You haven't reached the point of no return with corruption yet, but yes, in the future it'll unlock new abilities/traits and content. Some characters will be happier to see you become more angelic, others will not, and it'll affect the plot a bit.
You get ability and trait points every few levels, so in theory you could level to infinity. It would be really grindy though, the game isn't balanced for that.
that good to know wasn't sure what type build was going for all elements with swordman skill but im not going grind that take to long i finish story was good can't wait next update metatron so far fav not into sam story line sound depressed she think dumb i don't think completely dumb if she learn fire initiate by herself
I just noticed, when Sarah has the sweater, that there's a strap in addition to the sweater. Maybe it's always been there and I just haven't paid attention (REAL likely there) but I feel that it adds to the sky succubus's charm. She's shy and demure (certainly compared to Ashley) and adding what is likely a bra to the sweater just seems right with Sarah. Granted, she's my favorite of the core group, but still, adding a detail like that tell me you really thought about what Sarah is like! (A shy, slightly confused fashion model!)
Yep, that's the brat strap! I asked the artist to add it, it sounded super hot and fitting for her. The way the sweater is askew, revealing just enough of her shoulder and collarbone to imply things without revealing any boob, is IMO hotter than if she just had her tits hanging out and way more fitting to her.
This update has been VERY good for Sarah, lots of writing/relationship stuff and her CG!
I try not to pick favorites in terms of 'this is the girl the author clearly wants you to waifu,' if anything Celica is probably the closest there, but I do have a soft spot for this cute lil succubus as well.
I really appreciate that you DON'T play favorites with who the player should go after. I've played games where it's "you're going after this gal because I said so" and usually that woman is either meh or I don't care for her, causing me to quit the game. Really frustrating when the woman I like gets almost no attention and the woman the dev chooses is "no thanks"
Replaying from the start, at the dinner table, Ashley makes a snarky comment at low volume and the Mom asks what Ashley said, all in bold. Guessing Mom is really annoyed, especially given Ashley wilts from the question! Given that it's the only time everything is in a bold font, I get the feeling that Mom Aurion is essentially shooting daggers at Ashley over the comment!
Yeah, some games can get pretty heavy-handed with that. I feel bad for Aspasia fans (all 3 of them) but at least I'm trying LMAO, Maya has finally caught up!
Thank you! I am raring to write more Ina, but her 'official return (and joining party) is scheduled for after the Deepwoods stuff. So probably the update after that finishes, which depending on artist availability is this update or next.
I'd say it's more of a relationship builder than can go in a harem direction.
Some characters are up for casual sex as you build a relationship that then gets serious, while others won't want to do it until after you're in a relationship. In the future, some small groups will get along and won't mind/can be convinced to share, others won't be as fond.
Wow i played this game for free on this website now they want money for it I'm not paying for this game cuz it was like short and not great so if you said this game was free on this website again i will probably play it but I'm not paying for a game i can get better than this so take how you like i don't care
You do know that you DONT need to pay, right? You only pay to have the next update. Once another new Update rolls around, the previous one becomes free for you to download.
I'm back yet again and I'm broke :sadge: but this is still a good game although badon is lacking on the world building department but I hope your planning big changes to it other than Ashley shopping with astaroth (yes I'm using the MC's canon nickname) maybe add a spell shop or a blacksmith to upgrade the equipment no offense but the weapons are kinda meh I wanna customize the weapons so bad that is all for my Ted talk fellow takodachi
Good thing i just started working on an optical character recognition thing for my coding class. here ya go!

Cryomancy should be okay, especially in the second forest area where it actually counters some of the harder enemies. The difficulty definitely jumps up from Severn though. What in particular is giving you trouble, and what do your stats/abilities look like? Maybe I can throw out some suggestions.
It seems like the elemental ones either take no damage or fail to freeze (not counting the water/ice ones for obvious reasons lol) then hit me hard enough to beat me in a couple turns while I'm healing. When it was first introduced I had a much easier time with it, but after the changes and starting over for it they wreck me pretty good lol
Hurry up and update so 23 will be free and I can see just how wondrous the Butterfly Mom is! (I hate being poor sometimes) Seriously, take as long as you need, just want to see the new content but too poor to donate
That aside, I do have a question. By adding all these new characters, you aren't going to let Sam, Ashley, Sarah, Celica, and Metatron get neglected, are you? (Side note, I've FINALLY quit wanting to say Megatron when talking about Metatron!)
You (should) be able to play it as a demo in steam Next fest right now, but Steam has been a complete clusterfuck for the last week so it may or may not actually appear. If you search for it in Next fest proper it may show up. I'm waiting for that to be fixed before I announce it.
No, Metatron and Maya have gotten a good amount of content already this update and they all will get more. Sam has an eventual(tm) CG upcoming as well, and Ashley's is in progress right now. Many of these new characters aren't meant to be as fully fleshed out as the party members, but expand the setting (and have some lewds - Rosalyn's CG is in progress).
The party members are still the main draw, don't worry~ Regardless of if you prefer Mega or Meta heh.
i don't know if this was pointed out already but the first mastery of Parry and the Wind spell Flensing Ruin give error messages. both errors apparently are related to damage calculation
I love the content here, along with how frequently you update the game. Didn't expect this unassuming game to make me care so much about a succubus GF. Just purchased it today to do my part in helping development. You're doing great work.
Hey, thanks for the kind words, and the support! I'll keep at it and try to make sure everyone gets attention! Got a lot to improve but all I can do is work at it.
Which succ was it you liked as an aside? I'll try and make sure she gets a scene this update.
Ayy nice. Yeah, I've been pleasantly surprised by her. She was easy to write from the start, but doing her camp content really helped her complexity shine. I love writing her now, so it shouldn't be tooooo hard to make sure she gets something in this update haha.
25-30 hours of content got me good man and on top of that the possibility to lose our humanity exchange for power is the cream on top of it. As a fellow player i wish you best of luck while developing the game 👍
Absolutely! Happy to help, and that you've been enjoying the game! I'm getting back to work a little today now that I'm finally back from my trip, Sunday-Monday ish I should be able to upload a minor update (bugfix/typos mostly) and then get hard at work on the next real update~
Updated to 23e, fixing some typos and a few rare bugs with channels (as usual), along with some very minor UI improvements for the opening character building stuff.
There is no way I can afford to pay for the latest versions due to me being a bit tight on money. So that means I'll have to wait for when the next version comes out so I can play Version 0.23
Understandable my guy, I've been there more often than I'd like. Due to Christmas bullshit and a short trip I'm not sure exactly when the next update will be, but hopefully late January, maybe early February before steam NEXT fest.
Been meaning to ask, the past couple of times I've downloaded this, there's a new DivineDawn.app folder. Is that needed as well, is it for mobile only, or what? Just curious why the new folder...
Pretty sure I said it before, but I'll say it again: I REALLY like that all of the travelling group are complex and three dimensional. Ashley and Sarah aren't just "good at sex", there's a lot to uncover with them. Sam and Celica aren't just "the MC's friends growing up" they have complex and engaging stories as well, not to mention their rivalry. Metatron goes from "unfeeling weapon" to "team Mom"... you invested a lot of time and love in creating these characters and it shows!
I've been using a hybrid build that should work for PC, linux, and mac. I've gotten a few error reports so I'll probably go back to separate pc/linux and mac builds. Shouldn't be any effective change on your end, just more to upload for me lol.
And hey, thanks for saying so on the characters! I definitely have work to do on all of them, but that was my goal. The hope is that they feel like actual people to fall in love with, rather than just a couple of walking H-scenes, or god forbid walking fetishes like "the breast girl" and "the slutty girl."
Translations are extremely expensive and time-consuming, especially considering how much content I add each update. I would need to be making at least 10+ times what I currently am in order to afford them.
Completely understandable and I wouldn’t worry about it anyway. While it sure would be nice for the minority, they are still in the minority by far and translations are a luxury not a requirement. Personally, the only way I’d be willing to do something like that is through community-provided translations, but even that requires a lot of work to verify the integrity of the language used.
I would love to have translations for everything, but it probably wouldn't pay off quickly if at all, and it would be a vast project to coordinate, confirm, and implement even without the cost issue.
It doesn't help that 0.23 is already like 360k words long in total, so translating all of that to one language would be a minimum of thousands, potentially tens of thousands of dollars for each language lol. Community translations or would be the only feasible option.
Ashley's off sulking because I like the demure succubus more than the pranking one without much in the way of self-preservation...
One thing I wanted to ask is whether Permune (think I spelled that right) is likely to show up anywhere outside of the one time you have a surprise visit at night. Based on how Metatron views her and the quasi-interaction that one night, think she'd be like a calming or "think first, then action" type of gal...and given that the MC tends to get "thinking is maybe the 4th or 5th thing" people more often than not, and even the think first ones might forget that off and on "coughCelicaregardingSamcough" think he'd like her...
But then, I haven't seen Butterfly Mom yet, maybe she's a think first woman?
Ashley is a good girl who has never done anything wrong in her life!
Penemue is the angel you're talking about I suspect, down the road maybe! There will be more angels for sure. Metatron is a little out of date with most of the angels though. And thinking varies across the cast, Sarah isn't bad ~~at overthinking~~ at least LOL.
Rosalyn is a sweetheart! I can't wait to show her off more.
Hey, I never said Ashley did anything wrong! Just that continually pranking an archangel might not be the best idea (I'm still waiting for Metatron to either do something that convinces Ashley to knock it off...or start pranking back, preferably the latter). I just like Sarah way more!
Yeah, Penemue was who I was referring to. Either Penemue proper or someone who acts as she does is fine with me. I think some of this is sp Metatron isn't the only angel. Sarah is still a succubus, and she and Ashley are "besties for life". The MC has Sam and Celica (never mind those two don't exactly get along...), but Metatron doesn't really have anyone initially. Yes, Sarah becomes like a daughter to her, but that does take some time. Ashley and Metatron I would say cooperate as needed, but given Ashley just can't seem to stop pranking Metatron I'm not sure what the relationship would be. Vitriolic friends maybe?
This update actually has a surprising amount of Metatron and Ashley getting along (mostly), Metatron has successfully adopted both of her mortal enemies. And yeah, don't worry, there will be more straight (wo)men and intelligent characters joining.
I'm not sure what order things will happen in based on jfc's art availability and other artists work, but Cassiel might be the next angel to show up?
I did not quite understand the first part of the text, because I use a translator.
Can you explain/say in other words?
P.S. By the way, will dialogue be added to the characters?
I don’t see much difference in the sub-items of the communication menu yet. For example, the sub-item “friendship and relationships”.
By the way, a passing question immediately arises: does the player choose further “relationships” with the characters, or do their stories and conclusions, interests lie in an independent plane? P.S.
I did not find a field indicating my dodge (not to be confused with a glancing blow).
I'm just playing with an evasion build and need to know my stats.
By the way, my complaints:
1. You need to do something with the poison effect (or any other effects that work in% of HP).
Related to this is my dissatisfaction with the first boss.
My poison dealt 100 damage per turn. In fact, I was more effective than the angel in terms of DPS, given the constant attacks and crits.
However, simply reducing the % won't help - the debuffs will become unplayable. Is it possible to increase the resistance of this boss? Not full resistance, just limited poison damage. Let's say 50 per turn.
2. The first boss did not impress with strength, although the idea is interesting.
I almost didn't lose any HP and didn't use any healing. Perhaps, in general terms, evasion builds are too strong. However, I'm not sure about this as I haven't seen the whole game.
From other comments:
Recently arrived at the camp.
Frankly, Celica's return was superfluous. Too many new characters per square meter of history.
I understand that this is a prologue and so on...
And I accept the need to introduce characters without dragging unnecessary story over and over...
But I would have thrown out of the group at least Celica. I guess that girl from the beginning of the game (forgot the name -_-) will join later. I do not like.
Why? For me, these are empty characters. Who is this? What for? Why?
What do I care about them? I just started to get used to the "old characters", and here the lost one is returned without explanation and kicked into the next game.
In general, I'm unlikely to interact with them somehow.
(You should not pay attention to claims against the characters. In any case, this is irreparable, and there is not much point.
Admittedly the web version has been a little buggier than I hoped lol, assuming that's what you're running - let me know if it has any major issues.
But yeah, the game as a whole is somewhere around 20-30 hours of content with a lot of sprites, music, etc - there's a ton of files. Most of them pretty small, but they add up.
RenPyWeb saves are stored in the Index DB file system using IDBFS, specifically under the path /home/web_user/.renpy. Saving is done by calling the function create_persistent() from the file renpy-shell.html in the source code. You can inspect the save data using the browser storage inspector.
However, this means that the data is not permanently persistent. It will be erased given time, both inactivity on when the data was last accessed and how many times the browser has restarted count towards it, from what I remember. If the user simply left the save games in the browser expecting them to be there when they returned, that is likely the cause. It is best to always export saves from the browser, if possible, to ensure persistence by importing at a later date.

Haha I'm proud of that set of interactions! They weren't getting along well there, but Metatron is a good girl.
Megatron was a freedom fighter originally right? Before he went crazy? So maybe he has some quotes from back then that would fit Metatron, idk.
This may just be a "Me Problem"
being that I actually have an attention disorder '"ADD", but
I wish the game had a little less dialogue in the beginning "the forest part" or was a bit quicker in plot progression, I found it really slow & ended up having to stop & take a break after I got sucked into the Portal.

This is good civilization
-civiliazation girl probably
And no gacha to ruin it. Altera's midriff is very good civilization!
I love this game the developer is doing hes best on deyails on what will happen if you somehow did that and that keep up the good work!
I will keep up with the game for sure! I'm glad you are enjoying it!

Glad you enjoyed! Metatron is cute, and yeah, Sam isn't that dumb, just has bad judgement. She's trying to work on it.
How can i bang Celica i just started the game
Once you unlock the camp, follow her affection scenes to get there.
I just noticed, when Sarah has the sweater, that there's a strap in addition to the sweater.

Mom is the final boss, dev canon confirmed.
Loving the game and I hope we'll get some Ina 'nis content soon. Keep up the good work!
Thank you! I am raring to write more Ina, but her 'official return (and joining party) is scheduled for after the Deepwoods stuff. So probably the update after that finishes, which depending on artist availability is this update or next.
Is this game a harem? Or just had sex with a girl, and then went about his business?
I'd say it's more of a relationship builder than can go in a harem direction.

I put a lot of work into improving the weapons and making them unique over the last few updates. I don't think they're 'meh'.
Hmm… My goal to have mastery over all the elements as a Manablade user is gonna take a while with my build: Strength, Magic, and Insight.
Sounds like you got the right stats for it though!
Indeed I do, but I won’t be able to get the Nether Initiate until level 40.
Edit: This only means one thing to do… Turn on Easy and grind the hell until I reach level 40.
oh btw add button or ui size in preferences thank
Much easier said than done on the UI stuff unfortunately.
Can you give any more info on the error message? What was going on at the time?
All I remember was it happened on the hob shaman+2 fighter and I forgot what actually happened

Mini-update,been working hard on next update, but I don't like doing devlogs in the middle of the week so I'll post properly about it this Sunday!
Anyone got some tips for the forest after delivering Ina, I'm guessing cryomancy isn't the best way to tackle it
Cryomancy should be okay, especially in the second forest area where it actually counters some of the harder enemies. The difficulty definitely jumps up from Severn though. What in particular is giving you trouble, and what do your stats/abilities look like? Maybe I can throw out some suggestions.

Just a little bit longer and we can play 0.23 for free.
Yup! Going to have a final beta for 0.24 tonight and release 0.23 tomorrow morning if nothing goes horribly wrong!
Excellent!

Many of these new characters aren't meant to be as fully fleshed out as the party members, but expand the setting (and have some lewds - Rosalyn's CG is in progress).
The party members are still the main draw, don't worry~ Regardless of if you prefer Mega or Meta heh.
At the very least, I can see demo in Next games browse list now.
Thanks for the confirmation, that Steam stuff has been absolutely kicking my ass this past week so I'm glad it finally worked out.
All progress gone, browser version gone.
i don't know if this was pointed out already but the first mastery of Parry and the Wind spell Flensing Ruin give error messages.
both errors apparently are related to damage calculation
Thanks for the report! I forget if I fixed that for 23 or 24, but can confirm it is known and fixed by now~
I've noticed a small issue with the dagger skill stalker strike. when i went to upgrade it with mastery it showed beta version had no changes.
Thanks, I'll look into that!
How much more content/play time is in the current version versus the demo?
If you read at average speed (~200-250 words a minute), about 5-6 hours. Depending on how much faster you read it may be less.
Thanks for your quick reply. Really like the demo so ill definitely be buying the game.
Nice, thank you! Hope you enjoy, the upcoming update (free for people who bought) should be *around* feb 10-12 as well!
I love the content here, along with how frequently you update the game. Didn't expect this unassuming game to make me care so much about a succubus GF. Just purchased it today to do my part in helping development. You're doing great work.
Hey, thanks for the kind words, and the support! I'll keep at it and try to make sure everyone gets attention! Got a lot to improve but all I can do is work at it.
Which succ was it you liked as an aside? I'll try and make sure she gets a scene this update.
It was Ashley. Really enjoyed the writing on her. She has a great mixture of kindness, fun and assertiveness that endeared me to her.
Ayy nice. Yeah, I've been pleasantly surprised by her. She was easy to write from the start, but doing her camp content really helped her complexity shine. I love writing her now, so it shouldn't be tooooo hard to make sure she gets something in this update haha.
what happened to the web broser version?
Temporarily removed due to several unexpected issues with itch, not sure when it'll be back yet.
25-30 hours of content got me good man and on top of that the possibility to lose our humanity exchange for power is the cream on top of it. As a fellow player i wish you best of luck while developing the game 👍
Hope you enjoy! Still got a lot of work to do on the game, but there's getting to be a good amount of content!
Minor update to 0.23c, fixing a bug with harp channels, and various typos thanks to Dunnask. No new content.
If you buy it once you should be able to get all updates
Sapphire is correct, I will not charge for each update.
Absolutely! Happy to help, and that you've been enjoying the game! I'm getting back to work a little today now that I'm finally back from my trip, Sunday-Monday ish I should be able to upload a minor update (bugfix/typos mostly) and then get hard at work on the next real update~
a real fun game, i really love games with rpg elements!
hell yeah! I've always loved RPGs, seeing numbers go up feels good
Ngl the music in this game is damn good
yeee buddy! It's my guilty pleasure, still room for improvement but some of the upcoming stuff is great.
does contain pregnancy
Pregnancy as in impregnation, or banging visibly pregnant women? The former will come in time, the latter probably not.
Updated to 23e, fixing some typos and a few rare bugs with channels (as usual), along with some very minor UI improvements for the opening character building stuff.
No new content.
There is no way I can afford to pay for the latest versions due to me being a bit tight on money. So that means I'll have to wait for when the next version comes out so I can play Version 0.23
Understandable my guy, I've been there more often than I'd like. Due to Christmas bullshit and a short trip I'm not sure exactly when the next update will be, but hopefully late January, maybe early February before steam NEXT fest.
Been meaning to ask, the past couple of times I've downloaded this, there's a new DivineDawn.app folder. Is that needed as well, is it for mobile only, or what? Just curious why the new folder...
Pretty sure I said it before, but I'll say it again: I REALLY like that all of the travelling group are complex and three dimensional. Ashley and Sarah aren't just "good at sex", there's a lot to uncover with them. Sam and Celica aren't just "the MC's friends growing up" they have complex and engaging stories as well, not to mention their rivalry. Metatron goes from "unfeeling weapon" to "team Mom"... you invested a lot of time and love in creating these characters and it shows!
Waiting to see what Rosalyn looks and acts like!
I've been using a hybrid build that should work for PC, linux, and mac. I've gotten a few error reports so I'll probably go back to separate pc/linux and mac builds. Shouldn't be any effective change on your end, just more to upload for me lol.
And hey, thanks for saying so on the characters! I definitely have work to do on all of them, but that was my goal. The hope is that they feel like actual people to fall in love with, rather than just a couple of walking H-scenes, or god forbid walking fetishes like "the breast girl" and "the slutty girl."
Hopefully, release tomorrow... we'll see.
I don't think this is possible given the developer's current resources.
Yes, and it is unlikely that he is interested in such a thing.
Translations are extremely expensive and time-consuming, especially considering how much content I add each update. I would need to be making at least 10+ times what I currently am in order to afford them.
Completely understandable and I wouldn’t worry about it anyway. While it sure would be nice for the minority, they are still in the minority by far and translations are a luxury not a requirement. Personally, the only way I’d be willing to do something like that is through community-provided translations, but even that requires a lot of work to verify the integrity of the language used.
I would love to have translations for everything, but it probably wouldn't pay off quickly if at all, and it would be a vast project to coordinate, confirm, and implement even without the cost issue.
It doesn't help that 0.23 is already like 360k words long in total, so translating all of that to one language would be a minimum of thousands, potentially tens of thousands of dollars for each language lol. Community translations or would be the only feasible option.
Ashley's off sulking because I like the demure succubus more than the pranking one without much in the way of self-preservation...
One thing I wanted to ask is whether Permune (think I spelled that right) is likely to show up anywhere outside of the one time you have a surprise visit at night. Based on how Metatron views her and the quasi-interaction that one night, think she'd be like a calming or "think first, then action" type of gal...and given that the MC tends to get "thinking is maybe the 4th or 5th thing" people more often than not, and even the think first ones might forget that off and on "coughCelicaregardingSamcough" think he'd like her...
But then, I haven't seen Butterfly Mom yet, maybe she's a think first woman?
Ashley is a good girl who has never done anything wrong in her life!
Penemue is the angel you're talking about I suspect, down the road maybe! There will be more angels for sure. Metatron is a little out of date with most of the angels though. And thinking varies across the cast, Sarah isn't bad ~~at overthinking~~ at least LOL.
Rosalyn is a sweetheart! I can't wait to show her off more.
Hey, I never said Ashley did anything wrong! Just that continually pranking an archangel might not be the best idea (I'm still waiting for Metatron to either do something that convinces Ashley to knock it off...or start pranking back, preferably the latter). I just like Sarah way more!
Yeah, Penemue was who I was referring to. Either Penemue proper or someone who acts as she does is fine with me. I think some of this is sp Metatron isn't the only angel. Sarah is still a succubus, and she and Ashley are "besties for life". The MC has Sam and Celica (never mind those two don't exactly get along...), but Metatron doesn't really have anyone initially. Yes, Sarah becomes like a daughter to her, but that does take some time. Ashley and Metatron I would say cooperate as needed, but given Ashley just can't seem to stop pranking Metatron I'm not sure what the relationship would be. Vitriolic friends maybe?
This update actually has a surprising amount of Metatron and Ashley getting along (mostly), Metatron has successfully adopted both of her mortal enemies. And yeah, don't worry, there will be more straight (wo)men and intelligent characters joining.
I'm not sure what order things will happen in based on jfc's art availability and other artists work, but Cassiel might be the next angel to show up?
I did not quite understand the first part of the text, because I use a translator.
Can you explain/say in other words?
P.S. By the way, will dialogue be added to the characters?
I don’t see much difference in the sub-items of the communication menu yet. For example, the sub-item “friendship and relationships”.
By the way, a passing question immediately arises: does the player choose further “relationships” with the characters, or do their stories and conclusions, interests lie in an independent plane? P.S.
Metatron and Ashley have been getting along better lately.
Affection scenes generally focus more on romance and emotional bonds. Trust scenes focus more on friendship and trust.
I don't understand the final question. Following trust/affection scenes innately means pursuing their relationships.
Is there a way to hide the text? If so, how? And if there isn't, it would be nice
Yes, hit the H button to hide all UI/text!
I did not find a field indicating my dodge (not to be confused with a glancing blow).
I'm just playing with an evasion build and need to know my stats.
By the way, my complaints:
1. You need to do something with the poison effect (or any other effects that work in% of HP).
Related to this is my dissatisfaction with the first boss.
My poison dealt 100 damage per turn. In fact, I was more effective than the angel in terms of DPS, given the constant attacks and crits.
However, simply reducing the % won't help - the debuffs will become unplayable. Is it possible to increase the resistance of this boss? Not full resistance, just limited poison damage. Let's say 50 per turn.
2. The first boss did not impress with strength, although the idea is interesting.
I almost didn't lose any HP and didn't use any healing. Perhaps, in general terms, evasion builds are too strong. However, I'm not sure about this as I haven't seen the whole game.
From other comments:
Recently arrived at the camp.
Frankly, Celica's return was superfluous. Too many new characters per square meter of history.
I understand that this is a prologue and so on...
And I accept the need to introduce characters without dragging unnecessary story over and over...
But I would have thrown out of the group at least Celica. I guess that girl from the beginning of the game (forgot the name -_-) will join later. I do not like.
Why? For me, these are empty characters. Who is this? What for? Why?
What do I care about them? I just started to get used to the "old characters", and here the lost one is returned without explanation and kicked into the next game.
In general, I'm unlikely to interact with them somehow.
(You should not pay attention to claims against the characters. In any case, this is irreparable, and there is not much point.
Rather, I just spoke out.)
The first boss is intentionally pretty easy.
Yes, bosses will be receiving some more resistances. It wasn't possible when I first made it, but I've gotten more experience now.
Celica is meant to be a surprise intro; if you talk to her everything will be revealed over time.
That wow that's a lot of content downloading right now to test will be back with my thoughts later
Admittedly the web version has been a little buggier than I hoped lol, assuming that's what you're running - let me know if it has any major issues.
But yeah, the game as a whole is somewhere around 20-30 hours of content with a lot of sprites, music, etc - there's a ton of files. Most of them pretty small, but they add up.
Web versions of games tend to have issues in part due to no browser being created equal so it presents new challenges. Keep up the good work
Addendum to previous response: web version working without major UI issues on chrome on Android, this is already a big deal
Oh nice! Thanks for confirming that, potentially helpful for people having issues with the dedicated android version
i saved and lost all my progress somehow, im depressed
Sorry to hear that. Was it the web or downloadable version?
the web. it might not be fixable idk
Hm, I don't actually know how web renpy saves files, but I would assume it's something related to cookies or local files.
I know you can import/export saves between the desktop and web versions, if that helps?
If you hold down the Control key to skip and put on easy mode you can get back to wherever you were pretty fast too.
I'll probably add a cheat menu sooner or later to help, but that is gonna be a ways out.
RenPyWeb saves are stored in the Index DB file system using IDBFS, specifically under the path
/home/web_user/.renpy. Saving is done by calling the functioncreate_persistent()from the filerenpy-shell.htmlin the source code. You can inspect the save data using the browser storage inspector.However, this means that the data is not permanently persistent. It will be erased given time, both inactivity on when the data was last accessed and how many times the browser has restarted count towards it, from what I remember. If the user simply left the save games in the browser expecting them to be there when they returned, that is likely the cause. It is best to always export saves from the browser, if possible, to ensure persistence by importing at a later date.
Ohh okay that's actually really interesting! Thanks for sharing, I might add a warning note to the page about how to export saves.
