Path to Ascension 1.42 - New Sex Scene!

Alright, so- 

This is a smaller update reflecting the work done in this last week of the month. I did work on creating the entrance to the swamp area and preparing work for the orc village, but these things aren't in yet. What is in, is the missing anal scene for the Rutting Faun that I wrote! Bit by bit, we are getting those anal scenes in!

Shark Poll - March

Time for that shark poll I promised! Been a long time coming this one, since I have been busy with Lyssa. As always I will tie-break. Also, keep in mind that we are halfway through the month, so we will be voting for smaller stuff that I can do in that time frame.

Path to Ascension 1.41 - Sex Update

Alright, so here it is! This build includes the two sex scenes I promised. Sorry for the delay once again. 

Content

  • One new oral scene for Lyssa's sex menu!
  • One new event that serves as the conclusion for the romance route with Lyssa.

Fixes

  • Fixed a typo since last build. That's it. It was...

Lyssa Incoming

Alright, so-

No Lyssa sex stuff last week, sorry! Got a big job that ended bloating into more work than I originally thought, which got me busy last week. I will push this update out this week, though! Other than that, there will be a poll coming out for the appropriate patrons! So keep an eye out for that!

That's it.

Path to Ascension 1.4 - Lyssa Quest!

Alright, so this is finally here! Fucking hell, this update has definitely made me rethink the way I was going to approach some things in the future. It's all for the better though. 

Let me start by making something clear: there are no sex scenes in this update. I ran out of time finishing Lyssa's whole sequence of events, and ended up not putting anything lewd in. <...

Update This Weekend!

Alright, so-

Just passing by to let you all know that the update will be coming out this weekend. I still have to iron out a few last details and playtest it all in one go to see if I didn't miss out anything too important. 

Aside from the under the hood update to the combat, this update features upwards of 26 pages of content for Lyssa. I'd give you the word count, but time's ...

Halfway Point Update

Alright, so-

Things are going pretty smoothly. I just have to implement the big stuff, write some minor stuff. Revise everything, playtest, adjust, and the update's done. The biggest most probable hassle was going to be the combat rework, but that's over and done with. So it's smooth sailing from now on!

That's it for now. See you soon!

Back in Action

Alright, so-

I am back, and slightly refreshed. Since last month I couldn't actually finish the Lyssa stuff that I wanted, I will be doing it this month. It will be in the same fashion as last month, by skipping the vote, unless there are any complaints of course.

I will actually be trying to finish Lyssa's whole narrative arc this time. The most time-consuming thing will be her per...

Path to Ascension 1.38 - Happy Holidays!

Alright, so here it is! Since I never published the last build and it's the holidays, so I am realizing this as a public build right away! After the rough year everyone had, I reckon this is deserved. There isn't much in this new build aside from the Holiday event, but there is an eight-page scene here, so hopefully you can enjoy it! (This scene being why Lyssa couldn't get any more love sadly....

Goings On

Alright, so-

quick update, everyone! The Christmas events are going smoothly, but they are on track. My goal is to have it finished and implemented next week. After that I will do as much work as I can on Lyssa, which, again, I don't think will be a lot.

I aim to release the update before Christmas, so somewhere around the 20-22th would be ideal. After the update is released, I will...

On This Month's Polls

Alright, so-

Here's what I am thinking: since last month didn't have a lot of content Lyssa, I think we should skip this month's poll and continue developing her

She has won the polls twice and both times, for one reason or another, I couldn't put a lot of her content in. I am aiming to put in a Christmas event this month too, so I think whatever wins the pol...

Path to Ascension 1.3 - Witches and Bugs

Alright! Here is this month's build in the nick of time! Not a lot of content due to the fact last month's build extended to this one because of the Halloween event, but I still think there is a lot of good here. I also learned a bit more about how I will deal with companions from here on! Please, enjoy!

One Year Anniversary!

Alright, so November 29! Today marks one year since Path to Ascension's release! I thought it would be cool to look back at everything that has happened since then, and the origins of the project.

Why don't we start with some fun numbers? Everything is exact apart from the writing segment, which is more or less correct give or take a bit. That's due to some ...

Update on What's Going On

Alright, so-

First, sorry about the lack of communications this month, been too busy much like last month. On to what matters: what I have been working on. There are three things I want in this month's update: bugfixes (got a list of bugs from last update and others that I need to fix), content for Lyssa (per the vote), and a few QoL changes.

Bugfixes are quick, so I am finishing th...

Troubled Week

Alright, so-

Barely got anything done besides the last build. My PC broke and yesterday was all about fixing it. Today I am still getting everything in order to get back to developing. That coupled with the hysteria going on in the political world, it has been a terrible memorable week for me. Sheesh.

Anyways, the shark poll of the month will follow.

That's it for now.

Quick Unexpected Update

Alright, so-

There has been an unexpected change of plans at my main work, and I won't be able to work on the game today and tomorrow. So, the Monday update will have to be pushed back to the middle of the week. There's only a bit of work left, so maybe I can finish it by abusing my free time, but no promises. 

My deepest apologies for this, everyone. 2020 is a gift that keeps ...

PtA alpha - 1.15 - Halloween Special!

Alright! So, here it is: the Halloween Special! I had a problem with the tags on the werewolf scene being fucked, so only some of it is in this build, sadly. But everything else is okay, and since I am out of time, that scene will come with the main update on Monday.

Happy Halloween, everyone! It's been a tough year, but we are almost done! Hang in there!

Finishing Touches for Halloween

Alright, so-

Almost everything's done. The keyword system had some unexpected problems, so that delayed my implementation of the party comments, though. So, today I will be doing the finishing touches for the Halloween event, and tomorrow I will release it as a special thing for the holiday. There will be another build Monday with the content I didn't manage to squeeze in time for the spo...
