That’s surprising to hear. Very very different from my experience. Have you been using any sort of helper software such as Bottles or Lutris to help you with stuff like DXVK and whatnot?
I play all sort of stuff in wine from AAA stuff to random Ren’Py novels and it’s usually just fine, this pc isn’t even very strong, GPU is from like 4 gens back
While replaying 0.5 Hotfix 1 Mission 9 (originally beaten under 0.42), I rewatched the first memory of Luccia on the rooftop. After it finished playing, the wolf was gone and I was unable to proceed and had to quit out. Not sure if this was due to a bug or version compatibility issue.
Stuck on mission 9, it won't let me interact with Luccia. I have the Wort from the courtyard but when I approach and interact with Luccia nothing happens, am I missing something?
Is the Scab and Acnea quest broken? I've collected the Verdecite in the other level but it doesn't appear in my inventory. I've already gotten an Item from the Chef once too. Or do i need to get a second item from the chef?
Hi, i wanna know what is the best way to support your proyect and also see all the art you did. Should I buy the spicy build or suscribe to your patreon (5$-10$).thanks for reading this, i did enjoy the demo!
In order to beat him, you have to finish his sidequest with Scab & Acnea - which is only doable in the paid version. Basically, you need to obtain an item from the Cook and the Blacksmith Orcs that stop him from healing.
Its controller friendly, but different types of controllers vary significantly with button input. So, you may need to rebind keys with F1 if your controller is different.
I greatly enjoyed, but I did notice a couple of things. Was just the regular demo, so it might be fixed in the spicy version?
1. Sometimes while running through the orc village the orc disguise would randomly disappear.
2. I also tried to go back and replay that level to see if I could find a way to rescue the half-orc (I assume it's not possible in the demo), but it didn't reset anything. I go down to the cells and Priscilla is not there and I'm unable to trigger the dialogue. When I go upstairs, it's not raining so I can't leave. I had to close the game and start a new save slot, playing the game from the beginning, before I could progress.
3. I felt that the dialogue initiation was too sensitive? If I was too close to something, even if I had finished the dialogue, it would start back up again unless I walked away while the dialogue was going. Then I had to continue through the dialogue to the end. It would also initiate when pressing 'c', which meant I couldn't be running away from the dialogue, and I was almost always running.
4. Sometimes when pressing x to advance the dialogue, it would load the rest of the dialogue available so I could read it without waiting for it to load. Sometimes though, it would move on to the next piece before the entire section had loaded, so I didn't get a chance to read it.
5. There were a few typos during the cave scene with the Glithe.
'studder' should be stutter or shudder, either could work, though I would personally go with 'shudder', since stutter is most often used when speaking.
bound is the past tense form of bind rather than binded
tention is spelled tension
'enter me force' should either say 'enter me by force' or 'enter me forcefully'
sence should be spelled sense
the phrase it's tentacles should be its tentacles, because its is the possessive form and it's is a contraction of it is
I think there were other typos, but I'd have to play through it again, possibly multiple times, to catch them all.
Outside of these bugs, it was very good. The characters felt well developed and realistic, the puzzles were at about the right difficulty for me, and I never felt too lost. Hopefully I'll get myself a job soon so I can afford the extra cost for the spicy version. T_T
Played through the entire game and had a good time. Agree with some of the other commenters that there is some jank, tho.
On the combat side, two things irked me a bit
1 -> You’re taught to mash melee but that, most of the time, leaves you open to be counterattacked because you can’t cancel an attack animation into a block. This makes things a bit frustrating in the sense that you’re always trying to guess when you can attack? By the end of the playthrough (0.4.2) I was mostly parrying and then countering with spells so it was less of an issue, but did feel like it was the only “correct” way to engage combat because of this
2 -> I also had a surprisingly hard time getting Luccia to actually trigger the charged heavy attack. Not sure why, it felt quite finicky, but it is very useful
Other than that having to go through the mushroom fights again to revisit the orc village was a bit annoying too. I know we’ll have extra content there later so a shortcut straight to the village would be handy. And the dog sections didn’t control too well? On the platforming side, I think two things could improve the feel
1-> You’re only allowed to air-dash if you’re in the upwards half of your jump, this makes it a bit tricky to reach some areas. The end of the first (?) castle room got me a cheap death like this. I ended up in a platform way up high, it had the level ending arrow so I jumped off… except that led me straight into a pit I couldn’t see. That did not feel good, not gonna lie =P
2-> He could use a bit of “coyote jump” timing. Dog also moves weirdly slow in both his sections too
Finally in more general terms, the font on the inventory felt a bit hard to read so I’d consider tweaking that once inventory becomes important. Having the dash button/key ALSO trigger interactions can be pretty annoying when you are, for example, trying to leave the vicinity of the Half-Orc’s prison cell
My final interaction with the game was checking the gallery. I chose the discarded Hundswold scene and actually got locked in it as no buttons had any effect, needed to force close the application. LOL
I ran into a bug where I THINK what I did was dash away from (while?) interacting with the lever that opens the castle gate. This seemed to lock out my buttons
But yeah, all of those, imo, are regular growing pains and mostly minor stuff. This is a solid core and I’m excited to see what’s coming next
Hey, I purchased this game about a year ago. I'm currently unable to access the spicy version, only the public demo. Do I have to buy it again to access new updates?
trying to launch the hotfix version i paid for and i keep getting an execution cannot proccess error says mvscp140.dll is missing reinstalling may fix. reinstalled twice still the same. any help is appreciated
In one of the platforming missions, right after speaking to the cat paladin, I hit the save but accidentally fell off the platform and now I am stuck in an infinite loop of reloading into instant fail because I for some reason am not respawning at the checkpoint?
I've also noticed that the game does not save at the start of missions, which it should. It feels strange to fail a mission only to restart near the end of the last one...
I just wanted to give you some feedback on it, and what my expectations were. I really enjoyed the game and I've since finished it twice more. I just wanted to report what felt like a bug :)
Poise Gauge is similar to MP, Mana, or Stamina. Its needed to use abilities or magic, regens slowly over time, and if you run out, you get staggered and cant move.
my first grade teacher was wrong too, there are stupid people, and its you thavus, hes asking a genuine question stupid, since the dev added contribution goal i can imagine a lot of ppl think itll be free once it reached the goal...prick...
im saying a lot of people would think that, because what are the goal for then? besides there are a lot of free vn rpg games in itch io with similar genre, so its not hard not to think that, im just saying its a genuine question..

Any plans to make a linux/android patch? Totally fine if not, just wondering if I should check back before I get a windows device.
Hi, as of now I don't plan on it.
Alright, good luck with the rest of your development
Give Bottles a try. I’ve had a hard time getting this to run on wine the first time around, but some other user suggested it and it worked just fine
I havent had much luck with wine, the framerate has been unplayeable for most games ive tried
That’s surprising to hear. Very very different from my experience. Have you been using any sort of helper software such as Bottles or Lutris to help you with stuff like DXVK and whatnot?
I play all sort of stuff in wine from AAA stuff to random Ren’Py novels and it’s usually just fine, this pc isn’t even very strong, GPU is from like 4 gens back
Try proton experimental, worked like a charm for me.
You guys should make it so that you can save on the world map.. I hate having to redo the previous level when I lose :(
Salutations.
While replaying 0.5 Hotfix 1 Mission 9 (originally beaten under 0.42), I rewatched the first memory of Luccia on the rooftop. After it finished playing, the wolf was gone and I was unable to proceed and had to quit out. Not sure if this was due to a bug or version compatibility issue.
Thanks for reporting. I'll post a hotfix 03 for this.
Can you no longer skip to the near latest content?
press Q on world map
Stuck on mission 9, it won't let me interact with Luccia. I have the Wort from the courtyard but when I approach and interact with Luccia nothing happens, am I missing something?
Hi! I'll be releasing Hotfix02, which will fix this problem within an hour or so.
How did u get the wort?
Is the Scab and Acnea quest broken? I've collected the Verdecite in the other level but it doesn't appear in my inventory. I've already gotten an Item from the Chef once too. Or do i need to get a second item from the chef?
Hi! Yes, you need to get a second item from the Chef, too.
Hi, i wanna know what is the best way to support your proyect and also see all the art you did. Should I buy the spicy build or suscribe to your patreon (5$-10$).thanks for reading this, i did enjoy the demo!
hi! I post wip art ane exclusive content in partreon/substar and sometimes in my discord channel. Hope that helps!
Are there any plans of making a mobile port?
Only if there are fans willing to come to the discord channel and assist with the translation
Is it possible to beat orcosaurus? the combat is a bit clunky so it feels like I cant beat him.
I tried heavy attacks only, magic only, mixed heavy and magic, mixed light and magic - none work.
Edit - this is only criticism, but the rest of the game is actually enjoyable so keep doing what youre doing developer.
In order to beat him, you have to finish his sidequest with Scab & Acnea - which is only doable in the paid version.
Basically, you need to obtain an item from the Cook and the Blacksmith Orcs that stop him from healing.
Is the game controller friendly? If so, wich controllers are compatible with it?
Its controller friendly, but different types of controllers vary significantly with button input. So, you may need to rebind keys with F1 if your controller is different.
yeah... demo's broke for me, wont launch got a fix?
Not without more information, friend.
"The day god turned on mankind" Why are you making the most epic, but lewd game out there
i love final fantasy but didnt want to make a parody, lol
muito da hora super rocomendo
Does this game have TFs in it? or at the very least, are they planned to be in it?
Is there a way to emulate the game on Android?
how to activate the machine in the cave of L4?
Not available in this build
Is there android?
Unfortunately not
luccia is cute af.

Thank you! Im a solo developer so I appreciate all of these.
how much content do i get for the 9.9
Any plans to make this available for Mac?? Ty
Nope
Depending on how tech savvy you are you could try and install a tool called ‘Wine’ used to run Windows programs on Unix systems (Linux and Mac).
I would like to offer help but I haven’t touched a Mac in over 5 years so all I can do is mention it.
Tiene pensado sacar el juego para android en elfuturo?
Hey, I purchased this game about a year ago. I'm currently unable to access the spicy version, only the public demo. Do I have to buy it again to access new updates?
Contact me on Discord and i'll help you out
trying to launch the hotfix version i paid for and i keep getting an execution cannot proccess error says mvscp140.dll is missing reinstalling may fix. reinstalled twice still the same. any help is appreciated
mvscp140.dll is supplied by your operating system.
Usually running Windows Update does it all, along with checking your drivers.
As a last resort, look up the missing DLL in google.
thankyou for the info. Not computer savvy yet. I'll try that thanks again
in L8 i found a marley key but can't use it and don't have it innventory how can i fix it?
you have to use it on her closet, not the door.
Where is marley key
Is the gallery in the demo or do you have to get the full game to unlock it? And if it is in the demo, where is it in the home section?
unavailable in demo
if you do the orc village level again you are stuck with the orc costume as you cant activate the rain agaim
you are not supposed to activate the rain again. Once you do the Orc quest, its not repeatable outside the gallery.
of course it is. You can just repeat the level through the map
Intro/tutorial crashes when you get to I think the second boss?
what version is the public demo in? hope it is not like just the first version
In one of the platforming missions, right after speaking to the cat paladin, I hit the save but accidentally fell off the platform and now I am stuck in an infinite loop of reloading into instant fail because I for some reason am not respawning at the checkpoint?
I've also noticed that the game does not save at the start of missions, which it should. It feels strange to fail a mission only to restart near the end of the last one...
hiya, since the game is a work in progress, it is always being updated. I hope to get a better save system by next rollout.
I just wanted to give you some feedback on it, and what my expectations were. I really enjoyed the game and I've since finished it twice more. I just wanted to report what felt like a bug :)
Hey! Just digging into your cool demo and it's a lot of fun already. I will likely buy the game once I'm done with this.
Quick question - what does the poise gauge represent in terms of gameplay? As in, how does my play affect that gauge positively or negatively? Thanks.
Poise Gauge is similar to MP, Mana, or Stamina. Its needed to use abilities or magic, regens slowly over time, and if you run out, you get staggered and cant move.
How do i rewatch scenes that I've already played through?
There is a gallery. Go back to level 1 and instead of going right, go left.
Recipe tells me to get Beast meat, does that drop from somewhere or did I miss it?
it drops randomly or you can buy it from the merchant after L4
Will this ever be free? like once you finish adding everything, will you let everyone play without having to pay?
no
My first grade teacher was wrong. There are stupid questions.
a child shouldn’t be on this site, I can’t even remember my first grade teacher
I’m sorry for your dementia.
I don't have dementia, I'm just that old that I don't remember them
he just forgot that he has dementia, its ok sir, take my hand, ill take you back to the home.
my first grade teacher was wrong too, there are stupid people, and its you thavus, hes asking a genuine question stupid, since the dev added contribution goal i can imagine a lot of ppl think itll be free once it reached the goal...prick...
why would it be free because people other than you contributed? Why not just buy the game and support the dev? The hell kind of logic is that?
im saying a lot of people would think that, because what are the goal for then? besides there are a lot of free vn rpg games in itch io with similar genre, so its not hard not to think that, im just saying its a genuine question..
You are not entitled to someone else’s hard work without paying for it. It’s not a genuine question, it’s entitled snot nosed brat question.
check inside one of the cabinets in the Male barracks rooms
Do you have any plans to add this to Mac?
