April 2022 Devlog

Hi guys!
This is our traditional devlog, in which we reveal our upcoming plans.

This time there will be not so many technical details, but more conceptual and story ones.
We ported Ero-Gen to Unity, and now the conversation about this can be considered completed.
There are some pieces of content left that were on the old engine, and have not yet been opened in the current version of the game on the new engine.
However, this is due to the fact that we simply have not yet reached this content according to the logic of the game.
This is (for example) the second and the third rooms in the Manor or high-level battles for Katie and Christie.
All of this has not disappeared. This content will appear in the game with the course of the story, which will be discussed below.

Ego-Gen world story:

If you have been with us for a long time, you probably remember that Ero-Gen was originally conceived as a story of three pairs of characters.
In each pair, one sorceress is available to everyone, and the second is a bonus one, available only to patrons in gratitude for their support.
We tried to find some balance in which our game would be interesting in both cases (whichever sorceress from each pair you play).

In any case, during the game you have to get acquainted with all three pairs of girls and choose one sorceress from each.
As a result, you will get a set of main characters consisting of three sorceresses.
We are now at the point where two pairs of sorceresses are available.
Before starting a new game, you choose between Katie and Christie, and before the start of chapter 2, you choose between Cassandra and Lisanna.

The story of each pair of sorceresses takes place at the same time with the others.
This means that we have to switch between them from time to time in order to constantly keep an eye on everyone.

First, we watched Katie and Christie and their failed attempt to make money and help the villagers.
Then we helped one of them to leave the Manor.
At the same time, the story of Cassandra and Lisanna begins, so we temporarily switched to them.
The story of their initiation as healers, with the participation of Goddess Isabel and Professor Alfred, did not end as well as we might expect.
Cassandra and Lisanna were forced to go on the run with all their friends.
Finally they found themselves in a forest full of pursuers and robbers.

To avoid spoilers, let's briefly note that we will return to the Manor and meet both of our sorceresses (one of each pair and one of them for the second time) there very soon.
You will find out how they got there in the next (May) update. The Manor gameplay and the Love room will be ready by the June update.
At this point, the stories of the first and second pairs of sorceresses will touch each other for the first time.

Similarly, we are going to add a third pair of sorceresses this summer.
Before that, we will see a new part of the story of Katie and Christie, then Cassandra and Lisanna, and only then Evelyn and Amelia.

Each pair of sorceresses has its own unique story and gameplay features.
While they are solving their personal tasks, they will only meet in the Manor.
This means that none of them are destined to succeed on the first try.
However, sooner or later, each of the sorceresses will be able to reach her personal goal, and then she will no longer fall into the Manor.

When all three sorceresses (one chosen by the player from each pair) finally win, one of the most important moments in Ero-Gen will come.
Our sorceresses will decide to unite for some reason (no spoilers for now), and we will have to develop new complex gameplay for them.

Now we will not continue to think even more far ahead.
Let's just say that this part of the story, according to our plans, should become one of the last, after which the development of Ero-Gen will be completed.
There is still plenty of time up to this point and we will have a lot of moments to discuss all the details.

It is very important for us to outline the general plan for the development of the story of Ero-Gen world.
This story is twisted, there are many connected details that are not immediately evident.
We want to show this story completely and in the right order, so that you not only enjoy the beauty of the characters, animations and sounds, but also be able to get it all in an interesting context.

We hope you enjoy our work.
And just in case, don't forget about the gallery. There you can see all the most interesting and piquant scenes, as well as most of the story cut-scenes.

Thanks for reading to the end.
And thanks for your support!
