Caliross, The Shapeshifter's Legacy
A downloadable game for Windows
Caliross, The Shapeshifter's Legacy, is a fantasy-themed game, which will follow a young up-and-coming historian, as she takes her first steps outside her hometown and into the real world, to learn more about the elusive nature of her own kind, the shapeshifters. Will she become a member of the Mage guild, or of the Adventurer's guild? Will she find out more about her heritage, or will she be too busy working extra time in sleazy bars to make a living?
The game will feature several factions, each with their own goals and objectives. With your actions, you might willingly or unknowingly benefit this or that group, as the event unfolds, but the open-world nature of the game will leave it up to you if you want to get more involved with the politics of the world, or if you just want to do your own thing.
As far as the adult content goes, the game will feature fetishes such as mind control, cowgirl TF, corruption and more, depending on the paths you'll follow. It will have a female protagonist (as hinted above), and will likely have submissive themes, for the most part (I can't exclude some dominant content completely, but it wouldn't be widespread).
The development is currently being helped through Patreon, you can find the page here (it also has a link to the latest public version, near the bottom).
The game will update monthly, and the public, freely available version is usually one version behind the patreon-only one.
The changelog can be found here.
The walkthrough is available here, instead.

Very nice game! Been playing it for the last 2 days and I am very pleased! Made this account just to comment and review!
One suggestion though, you should limit how much you can gamble at the Queen of Hearts because it is very easy to exploit it by saving the game before betting, betting, reloading if lost, saving again if win, to basically get infinite money! I got more than 2 million gold this way right on my 2nd night in the game… so doing jobs and other stuff like that isn’t very motivating to me which probably causes me to miss a lot of content and also everything in the game is basically free too, so it’s a little too easy. So maybe make the bunny girl say “the games are over for today” or “you have already won all the pot we had!” or something in similar vein to cap how much you can bet in one night to prevent this exploit.
Another thing I wanted to ask you is regarding the Goblin and Orc village, I became their queen and was taken by Navarra to a Tarkas’ pub, where I found the grey clothing girl who ordered wine and was from Solina, but after finding her and ticking all the checkboxes, when I go back to Navarra to report, she says the same dialogue she does before finding her, to remember to find a girl who fits that criteria, I’ve also talked to every other talkable NPC in the room and interacted with everything I could, yet it seems like there is no way to progress, am I stuck? Do I need to load a previous save? My save is from after I reached the Orc-Goblin village and there is no way to escape it since it blocked by an Orc and a Goblin at the exit, so I don’t know what to do even by reloading…
Hello, where can i report a bug? Its just that the mailbox in both houses had just got bugged and i cant read a letter (Wich i think is from lord kairos)
It's fine to report bugs here. :)
How do you know the mailbox is bugged, exactly?
Because the Mailbox says i have a an unread mail and it have the icon for when it have mail, but when i try to read it, it doesnt show anything, just the empty box
So when you open the box and press "enter" when the "unread" option is selected, no messages appear? If that's the case, could you send me your savefile?
Yes, thats basically what happens, the page doesnt let me upload it as a comment, so here it is https://8ctogod.itch.io/caliross
The good news is that if you just re-read the message of congratulations from Duke Kito, the unread mail "alert" goes away.
Did you use the debug tool to skip parts of the noble path? That's one possible reason I can think of for this to happen.
I like it very much. It will be more fun if the chosen body will be on all CGIs too. However, this is too much to ask. Also, i would like to have nsfw scenes more stuff. For example in the tea tavern that you work as waitress, and you try to flirt with three guys, i would like to show more stuff.
Note, i am in first chapter yet. So, please dont post spoilers.
I though going to church, inhibitions may increase. But no. Is there a way to increase inhibitions in 1st chapter by doing something? I havent found a potion or food to do that.
I dont know if it exists but i would like a type of magic pill in order not to get pregnant and get the sexual satisfaction.
In circus, the minder tell you to show off your breasts to random people in circus. However, the only one that they are seeing them in the minder.
I have found annoyed to search for the persons that i must deliver back the things that they have asked. I could not remember all of then where i met each one. In journal you may put the place that you found a person?
The path thing is somewhat annoying. I like the plethora of them and of the unexpected things. You may put an extra menu that you can play these paths again if you like when unlocked?
I went as slave to palace and told to train another girl as slave. My inhibitions was very low 33 and then after cleaning went down to 16. So my question without spoiling me, is there a way to increase inhibitions, and get out of the palace? It is annoying to must clean 5 paintings in palace from 3 times! Either clean them from 1 time (for low inhibitions) or the next time that you must clean them, it will be in an auto mode.
Also, i had fantasies to buy both slaves for threesome, but after i bought the girl, the man was not available (1st chapter yet).
I have killed the bears in forest to take the special plants. Then i assigned to help wood cutters to kill the animal. Nowhere to be found. I have search day and night. I tried to camp also either on the forest or in the first screen. It tells me find a most open area. I dont know if it was meant to camp on forest somewhere.
Note that i have the edition Caliross 0.9.6 (Version 0.979) BUT here it stated Caliross 0.9.18. So i cant remember where i found that version. It is an older or newer one?
Thanks again for this wonderful game.
Glad you like the game! Sadly, I can't really have the body changes in the scenes (it's hundreds and hundreds of them at this point). My next game will have fewer options, but will show them all during the scenes, though. That specific scene at the pub might get something extra, but generally speaking I am trying to wrap things up for the game, so don't expect a lot of extra content for old events.
There are no ways to increase inhibitions. I didn't feel it was necessary, since most of the time it's just a way to gate content.
You can pray at Santhora's temple, to decide whether or not you get pregnant from sex, unless you mean you'd want something you can use to avoid individual pregnancies even when you have the pregnancies active.
Generally speaking, the hypnotist at the circus is a quick way to unlock traits, so not all of them have content in the area. I'll think about adding something.
It's a bit tricky to add more specific directions for the quests at this point. It's a lesson learned for my future games, but at this point I don't think I can change the questlog for Caliross.
Currently, there is a hidden secret to reset certain paths in the game (it can be used 3 times per playthrough) so you can use it to check mutually exclusive paths, or restart a path from the beginning, however I don't have a system to just revisit paths.
If you have become a slave, there is a way to reset things at the end of the path and return to before being enslaved. I'll think about the option to skip chores once you are an obedient slave.
I decided to limit it to 1 slave per game. Having their paths cross would be too difficult to pull off in a satisfying manner. They already have some choices and difference in their individual arcs, so it's going to stay as it is.
Could you tell me more about this quest? I don't remember one where we kill bears.
The latest public version is the one you can find here on itch.io (0.9.18). Patrons get 1 month early access (so they are one version ahead: 0.9.19). Both 0.9.6 and 0.979 are older versions of the game (much older, in fact).
Thank you for playing it! ^_^
Thanks. your writings are fabulus. Your graphics i like them very much. You have also a great fantasy on the erotic content (but i dont like oversize women). Hopefully, i am in 1st chapter, and now i keep separate saves for each path.
Cause of many black screens. I wonder if AI can help you to generate more nsfw scenes. You may ask the help of gamers too, if anyone is a graphic designer and would like to help you...
I liked the environment of the game.... If you can update it easily, you can continuously add content and missions...
PS. I solved the problem with the forest beasts.
PS. I did like the big range of events (ghosts, werewolf, slaves mouse (though of prince of persia!) etc.)
Glad you like the art as well! I have had a couple of different artists over the years, so the look is not as consistent as I would like, but I like the visuals overall.
I don't think I would ever use AI tools for the art, unless I was forced to (like running out of money or having trouble finding an artist to work with). I think at this point all scenes should have at least some art, unless I am forgetting something.
The game could be updated to add more content with some work, but as I mentioned I am trying to wrap things up, so it's unlikely we'll see many new maps, other than the ones I have already planned.
I probably went a little too wide with the content, but at least we got plenty of variety out of that! :)
man this game is good, it really pushes all the right buttons for me (mind control, submission, vampires, cowgirl etc) and I'm absolutely shocked at the amount of content for a free game (helps that i think the writing in general is really hot), so thanks for the hard work, hope you have a good day!
Hey, glad you are enjoying the game! ^_^ If you ever feel like supporting me, there is my Patreon, but otherwise yes, the game is free. I used to make games for a hobby, so it feels wrong to put significant content behind a paywall, even now that it's my livelihood.
I want to thank you. Your comment was what pushed me from "indecisive" to "giving this game a try." <3
i dont know what i did wrong but i cant find the hiding spot in quest for glory looking at the guide i just need to interact on the spot after following the step but nothing trigger am i missing something?
You mean that you can't find where the treasure is hidden? Did you start counting from the precise spot you see with the telescope? If you hit any of the checkpoints in the wrong order, you have to start from the beginning. I have added a screenshot of the starting point to the walkthrough, for reference.
Edit: Checking the code, it's possible to mess the steps recognition by walking on the starting point twice in a row, however walking back to it and trying again should fix the issue, so if that's the problem simply trying again should be a natural workaround (this will be fixed from version 0.9.20 onward).
i got the starting spot right, it only work after i press interact after taking each steps i dont know if that how its supposed to work, idc though im still enjoying the game
When I tested it, it worked without pressing the interaction key (other than at the end, where you must dig). I wonder what could be causing the issue for you. Anyway, glad you got past that point (and that you are enjoying the game)! ^_^
V0.9.18 - Can't seem to escape the outcast mastermind. At all. Chapter 5 - Catching the Mastermind is also not in the walkthrough. Got pulled into the underground area due to hypnosis after researching the museum. Tried turning into a mouse, but get caught after she turns back as soon as I try to leave, which gives a game over.
If you escape from the room as a mouse, turn around and lock the door behind you before continuing on, you are almost there!
has anyone gotten wine on linux able to run this the installer for the RTP fails on wine and i have no idea how to proceed
I can't figure out the fireplace puzzle in mage guild, can anyone help with i
This one uses visual hints: if you light only one fireplace, you might see that the smoke goes to the left or to the right, depending on which side the lit fireplace is. Also, you'll notice that each fireplace has some "unique-looking" tiles south of it, and this is true for the central chimney as well. These indicate the "strength" of the fire (and the target for the chimney).
The lit fireplaces must reach 5 strength to the left and to the right to solve the puzzle. It's a bit abstract, but it's a magic challenge, after all. XD
I've tried both dl links, but when I open the game it says
RPGVXAce RTP is required to run this game.
what exactly do I have to do, in order to play the game?
If you check the game's page, at the bottom, there is a link to download the RTP.
The RTP is just a bunch of basic assets for RPG Maker. Instead of redownloading them all the time, you just get them once and install them separately, so the game's size is smaller.
Hey mdqp I've been monitoring dev logs and it seems production has still been going strong are you making to projects at the same time? TOTDC 2 and caliross? tell me a little
Hi there!
Yeah, I am mostly working on Caliross, and I do a little work on TOTDC 2 on the side to hopefully have it ready once Caliross is finished. Did you have any specific questions about either project?
last time we talked you said caliross is almost finished so did you have a change of mind or what?
It might depend on when we talked specifically, but It's been a mix of underestimating what was still left, expanding the scope a bit and some health issues I was having last year and for the first half of this year, which reduced my ability to work consistently on the game.
hmm our conversation is a bit down the comment list, but it is definitely one of the longest here. I hope your in good health while I had many things to say, I really hope the walkthrough is coming along, because I'm thinking of doing another playthrough and it would be nice to have a good walkthrough, because Caliross often throws things at you that you do not expect (some really random stuff ;-;) while that is good i like doing a hundred percent of a game so walkthrough please ;-;
I haven't updated the walkthrough in the last 2-3 months, I think, but it's been mostly a lot of small stuff added that shouldn't be too hard to find (since I have been working on a larger quest on the side, there shouldn't be too much content that needs guidance among the additions).
I'll try to update it soon, though, as that's always something people are looking forward to.
Coming back after a long while, love the game you've made! Anyway, the slime girl in the forest doesn't ever appear. Tried during the day, the night, full moon where I got attacked by wolves, but no slime for the adventurer's guild
Glad you are enjoying the game! ^_^
Did you use "Detect Magic" to track her down? When you first go through the forest, she is hiding on one of the trees. There is a "magical trail" from when you enter the forest that you can detect and follow to reach her.
Where can i find the barracks in "The prodigal son" quest? I cant seem to find it
*Edit. i found it
Is hypnotism the main kink of this game?
Yes, mind control is the main kink. There are many others, but that's a big focus.
Are all of the different paths and routes still confusing to navigate? It's been quite since I played this but I recall having some trouble navigating the different paths, even with the walkthrough.
I don't think I have really simplified any of the paths, to be honest. For better of for worse, the game's design has stayed more or less the same over time. If you have something specific in mind, I could maybe you give some more details.
Well I just recall that there's multiple paths for each "storyline" (e.g. the vampire blocking another path)
That's still a thing. There are some ways around that: you can find a magical being (a dragon) well hidden in the game, and he can grant you 3 wishes to undo certain paths (so you can in theory see some mutually exclusive content). Then again, that probably counts as making things more complicated. XD
Love the game
, but i've encountered a problem (maybe a softlock?) that i can't figure out how to get past.
Edit: literally seconds after posting this i figured it out :3anyways, love the game, though i guess i wish there was more interactive-ness in the actual nsfw scenes, but its still great
Glad you like the game. As a reference, what kind of interactiveness do you have in mind for the scenes?
God damn what a journey from the Drunken Cowboy to here.
Great work done here, as expected, can't really get enough of it. Thank you!
Thank you for playing the game! :)
The amount of content blew me away.
That said I got soft-locked pretty early on.
I'm on chapter 2 and I did some guild quests and got to the one about escorting a merchant and Bandits robbed him. I went to the Boss area but I was way under-leveled and didn't have any items with me so no matter how I play it out I get killed every time. And I can't exit the area either.
Glad you liked the amount of content.
If this is the quest "Experienced Escort" there is actually a secret way to avoid the boss fight. You can hear the other bandits talk about how the boss is scared of lightning, and using your lightning spell on the cross will make him faint on the spot. XD
This game was my first amazing payoff for trying rpgm games.
Thank you! You gave me faith and the desire to seek more
Glad I could inspire you to seek out more games. RPG Maker games are relatively easy to make, so you get more sub-par entries, however there are still plenty of well-made adventures to find out there.
Where can I find the royal library?
That's accessible to you only if you become a noble. To do that, there is a specific quest you must complete in chapter 2 (The Prodigal Son) and then you must take part in the selection process.
Check out the walkthrough linked in the game's folder, you should be able to get all the details you need.
How to talk to the emperor in chapter 3 or 4?
You must be a noble first. If you are, and you have gone to your mansion, you can speak to Keiko there (on the second floor). Talking to her allows you to buy a carriage, and you can use that to go to the royal castle.
Thank you.
i have two questions
i know you can lose some quests when you go to the next chapter, but can you also lose h-scenes? im talking abt random scenes that have nothing to do with quests.
the other question, when erica is pregnant there is an option of "visiting the father" but it is unavailable to me, why?
1) Unless something is directly related to the missable quests, you are good.
2) I never put the actual code for that choice. I have been thinking if it's worth the effort, and so I have neither removed the option or worked on it. While I think it would be cool, I wonder if people would just want sex scenes (and so, the art that goes with them), and it might be a little too much at this point. I guess I could take it one at a time, and mix in some non-sexy scenes depending on who's the father.
thank you for answering! loving the game :)
are there any items to help increase or decrease intelligence?
If you need a temporary boost, you can buy an item in the Bazaar (only during the day) called "Mindblossom" which gives you +10 for the time slot you use it in, but also a permanent -2 when the effect runs out. Otherwise, you can slowly raise it by studying at libraries or by cheating with the debug tools.
thank you!! just started playing so i didn't really know what to do lol
No problem, have fun with the game. ^_^
thank you!! great game btw <3
How can i use the debug tools?
The debug tool is an item in your inventory (in the "key items" section) called "Travel Sphere" (there is also another one named "Time Control"). These can break things in the game if you don't know what you are doing, so always save before using them.
How to transform to a mouse?
You must go through the first Shapeshifter temple to unlock the transformation (there is a statue at the end), then it's available from the skills menu (on the map, the shortcut is the "W" key). Note that you can't just transform anywhere, usually you'll use it to enter small passages.
I avoid walkthroughs when i can, that said im stuck on the archmagus magic circle puzzle. it appears simple, gives what seems to be precise instructions, but nothing happens when i follow said instuctions, help? pleeeease?
I just tried the magic circle, and it works fine for me. Could you perhaps send me your save file?
Will this game come to Steam once you finish or hit 1.0?
I am thinking about it, but I am not sure. if it does get there, it will be distributed for free.
Love the game! I am wondering how unlocking pictures in the Gallery works? Since many gallery-related pics are only unlocked when approaching a bad end, will they still remain in the gallery afterwards? Or is there some other way to 100% the gallery?
Always nice to hear people like Caliross! ^_^
There is a cheat in the travel sphere to unlock all images (although I need to update it), but I honestly hadn't considered an in-game method to unlock 100% of the gallery when I started working on the game (or even later when I introduced the gallery).
I am not sure how I would go about changing that now. If there is a game-over screen, unlocks are "forgotten" by the game, since the info is stored in the save files. I often have a "go back" button for bad ends, but that's not enough since there are other limitations, like some of the paths being mutually exclusive, for example.
ah well, just wondering. I quite like the idea of trying to get a 100% completion, maybe Ill just make a checklist for myself and use the travel sphere once Im done!
When will the walkthrough be updated?
Also I wanna say that I really love this game and ty :D
Glad you are enjoying it!
I should update the walkthrough this month, although I am not sure if I'll manage to bring it to parity with the game.
i might sound dumb but how do I use the "push"? because I can't seem to find a way to get the 3rd mana crystal, also the walkthrough isn't helping either
Open your list of spells and there should be a spell for pushing. Click on it and you will be able to push stuffs :D
i already found it, thanks though
I LOVE this game!!
I ran into a couple things I think are small bugs?
Thank you for this wonderful (and pleasurable) game <3
Glad you like it! ^_^
1. I didn't make all dates advance time. It was probably a mistake, since it creates inconsistencies, but I also didn't want to make experiencing the content annoying by setting tight limits everyday.
2. Find the folder "My project" inside the game's folder, make a backup copy of it just in case, then delete it, and see if this helps. I use a script to save settings outside of save files, but I noticed it's a bit buggy at times, and I think this is one of the side-effects.
Thanks for playing the game!
With how small game window is, its really a shame you cant scale game x2 or something.
If you mess with the F5 and F6 keys, you can cycle through a few options for scaling. The game is still low-res, however, so it is what it is.
My cursor doesn't work when playing? It works in other RPG Maker games
This was made with an older version of RPG Maker, which had no mouse support. In theory it could be added, but at this point there would be too many problems in doing so (meaning, it could break certain puzzles/interactions).
Hey I don't know if these people asked if they could use the art work you're using but I wanted you to know that I found a game that's using artwork from this game:
https://www.humblebundle.com/store/choose-wisely
Don't worry. This pops up every now and then, but that art is actually part of a DLC for RPG Maker. It's just that it's used so rarely, I basically had it exclusively for a while. XD
I'll probably avoid it for important characters in future games, though.
Ah okay! well i'm glad that's the case!
hi mdqp i have request when you have done main the line and the story i hope you will be able to find time to look at bug reports and refine certain paths of the game or at least giving them a satisfying ending and conclusion/integration or maybe even continuing them that said i have found a bug i think
In the king harem path to be selected as favorite according to the walkthrough requires you to have a flirt score of 3 or a relationship score of 5 and also for a certain "scene/vision" to happen you need to stay in your seat instead of giving it up instead
i ended up getting a flirt score of 5 and still didn't get picked as favorite and the vision came when i did take the seat of the other princess
lastly i like these types of open games when if you follow the paths right you can end up as the most powerful person in the end so... queen with god powers? ;-; i mean we have baal so.. and the acadamy is a mess like a complete mess very sexy but a mess
Hi there! Bug reports are always welcome, and I try to fix known issues immediately whenever possible.
You must have at least a relationship score of 5 AND a flirt score of 3, having just a flirt score of 5 alone isn't enough. I'll make sure to emphasize this in the walkthrough as well.
I am not sure if having an all-powerful Erica fits the game's themes.
What's the problem with the academy? I am willing to change stuff if there are problems, but I need you to tell me more. Suggestions are welcome so long as they don't turn upside down the path.
well for bug reports i have often seen repeating dialogue and i remember is chapter 4 i once interacted with the fast travel of the residential district and nothing happened i was straight up stuck and had to reload thankfully i had saved recently
yes i think that is necessary to tell people tho i have a question is it possible to get the required scores without sitting next to the emperor?
okay maybe not all powerful but at least pretty strong with a ton of spells or more stuff with baal
well like how carla finds about you and kira and interacts because they are in the same place the academy has none of you could end up "being" with the entire academy and no one notices aside from this eloise scenes just repeat such as the shower one it just repeats and doesn't acknowledge you have seen this once same for her bedroom scene majorie is a worse version of beatrix, Kira and Edith it seems and its bit weird we can just deny her ending and she will ask the same question over and over the fact you can only avoid or submit to her i was hoping for a bit better or aleast the good ending rather then a game over finally the bathroom scenes needed some refinement (since the "free use" thing happened i was hoping for more variation and consequences) but the only athlete you can have a relationship with is the captain who after the first game you cannot talk to and our friend just doesnt even ask questions about it
what i think should happen is more interaction with others over our actions (we could have a kira and carla situation but with way more members)
paths being more developed and refined
and finally a type of graduation if possible this should give us some stuff and have us recognized as a qualified mage (the emperor points out we have no formal qualifications when in noble goals)
to make certain things repeatable we could go for extra classes or become a part time professer/assistant ;-; your choice
lastly if you read this much thank you i just ranted alot but i have a couple of issues with the elize path and I also some suggestions for the adventurer's guild if you want to hear it (as well as a question regarding santhora)
I can probably fix the repeating dialogue, but you gotta tell me where/when you saw it, or the exact wording so I can track it down.
Did you try the fast travel again after you reloaded? Was it day or night?
It's probably not possible if you don't sit next to him. I haven't double checked how many points you have available, but there is a drastic reduction if you don't sit next to him.
In the mage guild ending, Erica looks cool (see attached image), isn't that enough? Although it seems like it was bugged and didn't show up during the ending (but it unlocked in the gallery). I just don't see how the Empress ending should have anything to do with also getting spells and becoming powerful.
Note that some of the content in the academy is still a work in progress. I'll make sure the Eloise shower scene reflects that it's not the first time afterward. I don't think Marjorie's path is going to be changed at this point: I feel she got the protagonist where she wants, which is why she doesn't see the need to push, and just lets you come to her, and she is selfish enough that it didn't make sense for me to write an ending where you can continue playing.
I can see a scene or two for the "free use" stuff being added to round things up. The romance with the captain isn't complete just yet, but it's getting there. I'll make sure to add more gossip with the cheerleaders, that's a good point. Also, note that if you don't get involved with the captain, you can actually have group sex with some of the team members (the two paths are mutually exclusive).
I honestly don't think I am going to add more "crossover" paths at this point. I liked the idea with Carla and Kira, but after you do it once, it kind of loses impact. Plus, the characters have to make sense together, which is kind of a rarity. Finally, the academy is taking too much time already, and I am trying to finish the game, so I don't think I'd go for it at this point in time.
Similar deal for a "graduation", it's beyond the scope of the game. If you do complete all the classes, however, I can at least acknowledge it, and maybe use it as another way to get a vote when trying to become a noble, so that there is an effect outside the academy. I could also have something in the mage guild, and perhaps a slide during the ending. Once you finish all classes, I was thinking about repeatable bonuses you get for still showing up, but I have been stalling because it's hard to balance properly.
Paths being more developed and refined is a bit generic. If you think a specific path needs work, you can tell me what it lacks in your opinion, and I'll consider improving it if I like the idea and it fits my schedule for the game.
Sure, you can ask/tell me more. I'd recommend you keep the messages a bit shorter, though, otherwise it's hard to respond (you can always bring up other topics you have in mind later, no need to tell me everything in one go). Some grammar would also be appreciated. It's hard to read without punctuation, especially for a non-native english speaker like me.
Firstly, for the bug reports I'm sorry I can't remember, do you have a Discord or another way of reporting because I don't come at this site's comment section often.
the reason I'm asking for another Kira and Carla situation is because, if we go around "doing" the entire academy someone is bound to notice so unless everyone in the academy in all paths is fine with that there should be some confrontation.
side note: every time I say Kira I think of Light (death note)
Charlies and Eloise pretty much, just make it longer so it has more development (Eloise practically has none) and have some random encounters with some effects on the overall academy. (kind of similar to how professor Selina's class gets a change)
tbh I would just be happy to see a more active Baal in the game, or Baal interacting with Orc timeline girl since they both have an affinity for time.
My friend, I am also a non native speaker so I apologize for my bad grammar and lack of punctuation may I ask where you hail from?
okay so from what I can see Santhora just cares about intercourse and breeding in that order and her preferred follower would be poly and bi (our protagonist) at least that's what I derived from the game
I do have a Discord, but so far I kept it for patrons-only (or rather, you must donate at least once to get the invite link). I did it like this to make it easier to moderate, although it might be too restrictive.
There are other ways to contact me, though: I have a blog, I have threads for my game on several forums (like F95 Zone, or TFGames) and you can send me reports to this email: mirko.della@tiscali.it
I get what you mean, but the academy has been dragging for a while, so I am wary of adding new content. Also, I am not sure I have any interesting ideas for a showdown between Charles and Eloise (or the others, for that matter).
Eloise is getting new scenes, so there is that, and I can think of including some events around the academy which are affected by your relationships, that makes sense.
One of the reasons why Baal is so restricted as a character is because otherwise it would warp the story and the world around him (same deal for the "orc timeline girl"). It would be different if the story revolved around time travel (or something similar) at its core, but as it is I'd rather keep him on the fringe.
No need to apologize. :) I am italian!
Yeah, that's the gist of it. Santhora is like a very romantic bimbo who happens to be a goddess, pretty much, so she brings life, love, happiness and chaos wherever she goes.
What transformations are in this game? Is cowgirl the only furry option?
Technically, there are no furry options (although there is a "bad end" where you can turn into a proper cowgirl). The protagonist's transformation are usually into animals for solving puzzles (no bestiality or anything like that)..
You can get it on with a minotaur and various other mythical creatures (mermaids, demons, succubi, tentacle monsters and so on), so there is some "adjecent" stuff. The cowgirl content is more about mental transformation/hypnosis (mind control is the most common theme by far), so the protagonist generally doesn't physically transform permanently (unless it's an ending). Some exceptions are that you can grow/shrink your breasts/butt or you can become a werewolf (but again in this case the transformation and the sexy content don't overlap, as you transform completely into a wolf).
Hello there great game but I have a few things to say
1 something that people have asked before the ability to take characters with you on adventures now I know there are a lot with various relationship statuses but I think anyone combat based if is allowed then the list becomes shorter even more so if only a lover or submissive (you dominant partner submissive) relationship is allowed to be taken
2 this is something already implemented but I feel like there should be a bit more rewards to completing a path which has a good ending.e.g. Sonya's path gives you bimbo trait (one of em anyway) which is an obvious downside but completing Arial or Carla doesn't give you much aside from some scenes (very well done scenes -;) but scenes no weapon special clothes nothing I feel like there should be more rewards or punishments depending on who you take which path with (the one's where your submissive should depend on what kind of person the other person is for rewards or debuff)
3 the H scenes list is more of a path guide which is great but also leaves H scenes unlisted such as djinn scene and the king harem scene (both of which should have more development if possible ;-;)
Finally a great game truly a game where it didn't seem like porn with story but a story with porn the fact the sexual stuff is pretty separate from the main stuff and nothing too over sexualized makes it a very well done game and the story is phenomenal
P.S path the like werewolf should have more stuff to it if possible ;-; and all paths have more effect on storyline? (I know they already have but asking even more paths to have more effect on story)
Anyway great game bye!
Hi, glad you liked the game!
1) At this point, it would be too difficult to balance for new party members. I partly regret not using at least 3 party slots but it made sense for the story, but it is what it is.
2) I figured not all paths should have a gameplay effect. I think that thematically, it makes more sense this way. However, if you have specific suggestions for specific paths, I can consider them. It's kind of hard, since I am close to finishing the game, but you never know.
3) The H-scenes list was added a few years after development started, so it's lagging behind. Finding the time to improve it without getting in the way of the game isn't easy either, which is why I haven't updated it in a while. Ideally, it would have a "miscellaneous" section divided by area, with all scenes listed.
That's what I was going for, so I am glad the game felt that way. I think that making a game with a bad story is almost pointless (since at that point, you might as well just watch regular porn XD). It's better to have some investment in what's going on, and you can't have that if the story is a complete mess.
I wish there were more effects for factions/paths in general, but I didn't manage my time properly. I probably should have cut a few paths to have the opportunity to expand others more, but this was my first open-world(ish) game, and I didn't find a great balance between the various elements. Lessons learned for the future, I guess.
About what paths effect gameplay I simply am asking for a reward in essence, if you complete a path something similar to how in GTA San Andreas if you 100 % a girlfriend you got an outfit I propose something similar like a weapon or armor or outfit
For the other faction stuff I must say that is indeed a missed opportunity (atp the werewolf path might as well be an orgy cause the H scenes are all it can do) even becoming alpha has no notable effect from what I can see
Not bringing completed paths people with you is also a huge missed opportunity but as you said at least you learned
I agree with what you said about the story
As for the H scenes list I'm pretty sure since your close to finishing the game once your done you can do the necessary updates to it
I wish you the best in this project and all your other projects
I wonder if it would be fine to have items which are already available in the game as rewards. In theory, there isn't a big problem with adding new weapons and armors (although it would take some time to consider the balance and to think about what would make sense as a gift from this or that character), clothes however are a different beast, since I only ever use them to unlock unique scenes (due to how the game was coded, it's extremely awkward to add a clothing system now), so those are probably off the table. If we were talking just about a memento/gift, that would also be pretty easy to do (obviously).
Yeah, there were plans for a werewolf quest, but it's getting cut at this point (might be something to add if I eventually revisit the game in the future). At least the alpha stuff is acknowledged in the ending, and you do get a bonus in battle from it.
The H-scenes list is missing a lot, and I am also getting ready for my next game. While you can expect me to make progress on that front, it won't be completed quickly either. It's the problem with one-man projects like this one.
Thanks! ^_^
Yeah Memento style or weaponry/armor is fine
I do hope you will revisit the werewolf path
I can understand the one man project just do things step by step complete the game then complete the game's documentation and everyone will be happy and I am excited to see how what you have learned from this project will be implemented in future projects
Your welcome ``_``
"Shadow from the past " quest the sewer gate does not open , do i have to do sth else ?
If you saw the cutscene with Cero Falk, the door should open. The entrance is in the same map as the Spider's Nest, do you have the right building?
sorry for late reply , my comp has some problem
And I am sorry for giving you incorrect information last time. I checked to make sure, and the questlog tells you what you should do before trying to enter the sewers: you must go to a library to do a research about the catacombs first. For some reason, I forgot about that (I didn't even mention it in the walkthrough, so I'll fix that as soon as possible).
On the plus side, you should be able to finish the quest without issues, now.
OKEY I TRY BUT WHERE I THE LIBRARY ???
There are various libraries in the game: The closest one in Tarkas is accessible if you are part of the mage guild. Go to the library in the basement and do your research there (there is a shining spot in the library). If you are a student at the magic academy, there is also a library there (ground floor, top-left corner). There are others, but these are probably the easiest ones to access. I might have to add one you can access just by paying a fee, for those that don't want to progress any of the secondary paths.
Is there an updated version of the h-scenes document?
As I've seen there are new h paths on changelog but that document hasn't seemed to change?
I haven't updated the document in a while. Since it's not essential, it's the first thing to suffer whenever I am too busy, so it's been lagging behind.
1)Erica had D sized breasts before sold as a slave. When I finished Slave path of Pendleton and reverted time she still had D sized breasts but character profile was showing it as A sized.
2) Is there a way to remove traits and hide text?
1) Thanks for letting me know! This will be fixed from version 0.9.14, most likely.
2) No way to remove traits other than using the debug tool (if you use the "travel sphere" among the key items, and interact with the green sphere, you can toggle traits). Note that since the game isn't built with the idea of traits being removable, if you started a path that required a trait, future scenes in that path might still read as if you have the trait.
As for hiding text, do you mean hide the dialogue box? If so, pressing CTRL toggles the visibility.
