The big metagame poll

Hi all.

In a few days the game will be two and half years out. While I’m growing more confident and happy with the direction the story is going (wait till you see the action in 0.10!) I'd like to rethink some of the elements in the game.

In the following poll I’m going to allocate the options into groups. Please vote once in each group, i.e. one...

The Mothers - first appearance and outfit

The Mothers - first appearance and outfit

Those of you who have been paying attention have probably noticed the name The Mothers thrown here and there. The Mothers, aka the Threefold Goddess, represent the three states of womanhood: the Virgin (love, purity), the Wife (fertility, compassion) and the Matriarch (home, family).  

In the Patrons exclusive Discord channel #patrons-exclusives I have uploaded some ...

Boring statistics + preview image

This is a boring blog post about the statistics behind versions. You can skip all the way down for a sneak preview of version 0.9.

Recently I have lost my job, giving me more time to focus on what matters most in life: the game.

After a few weeks of working on the game much more than I used to in the past two years, I wanted to measure my velocity and throughput and check how (if?) ...

Fun activity: name Karder's flagship

In update 0.9, Karder can travel back to Waikokipia to oversee the re-launch of the Dark Harvest fleet. Ilga the Ram, now the navarch of the fleet, will offer him to name his flagship.

I'm looking for some cool suggestions for the flagship and as players you'll be able to choose from a list of names I liked. Here are some suggestions I came up with, feel free to bring your own (or just te...

Pregnant old flames or not?

Version 0.9 will be about revisiting old flames, non-Wenches quest girls you have met in your adventures and had some fun with. Since you did what you did with them, I was wondering if during the "Act 2 quest" you would want to have them pregnant or just have given birth "off screen" and are now ready for... more fun.


Disclaimer 1: As usual, your feedback is important but I res...

I want to have some cameos in version 0.9, mostly of “quest girls” you want to see more of. Please vote for the one quest girl you want to see the most.

Version 0.8 is rolling out!

Version 0.8 is rolling out!

  • Animations for the R/P/S combat: no more guessing how your opponent will attack, their animation will allow you to determine it on your own.
  • Fame: play as a benign ruler and watch your Fame grow. When it reaches high thresholds, enjoy Morale and productivity bonus. Or play as a ruthless leader and when your infamy is low enough, your subjects will be obedient like never before! View Post

Ok, so you guys are obviously enamored with Nahir <3  I decided to invest the money you pay by giving it back to you, so I commissioned a high quality 2d image of Nahir. If you'll like the results I'll commission some more.

Silly poll: if you could spend one night with..?

I'm making a great progress on version 0.8, hopefully I'll finish all the content for Naruz-The-Wind on Tuesday. Time for a little silly poll: if you could spend one night with one of the (former) ruling Wenches, which would it be (multiple choices allowed)?

With super tall Naruz-The-Wind joining Karder's harem, I was curious to see how tall are all the Wenches so I put them on a little lineup shot. Enjoy!

Version 0.8 update

1. Meet Naruz-The-Wind, queen of Daouen. She's from a long line of war rhino riders so you can expect some previews depicting them too.

2. The RPS combat system was modified. Starting from version 0.8, all opponents have unique animations for each Riposte/Slash/Parry attack so once you learn, for example, that moving their head from side to side means a Slash attack, you can now counter i...

Trimmed or wild?

In version 0.7 I offered you guys the option to have Black Alana's "garden" either be trimmed or be allowed to grow wild. Seeing how you liked this option, I'm considering adding it to past Wenches as well.

Let me know which Wench should get the "two bush mode" option next or if I should skip this option (which costs roughly 2 days of work).

Next update: new content or animation for existing scenes?

Version 0.7 release date will soon be announced but I'm already thinking about the next version. As months go by, my animation skills gradually improve. But while Black Alana enjoyed animation in her scenes (version 0.7), previous Wenches and quest girls did not.

I'm considering making version 0.8 a version dedicated to retro-animating existing scenes, i.e. go back and an...

Hi all.

Originally I planned to release 0.7 in the third part of October but it seems that I might miss this goal and be forced to release only in the first week of November. There are many reasons for this (increased load at work, more animations than ever before etc) but the bottom line remains: unfortunately I’ll be releasing a bit later than planned.
