I touched on this briefly the other day, but I want to elaborate now that I've added the system to the game officially.
Enlightenment comes from pondering specific topics that you may uncover through various means. While this might not sound like a huge deal, gaining enough enlightenment to "master" a topic will yield rewards.
Most commonly gaining enlightenment will yield extra talent points, bursts of qi, and many other perks -- as an example, a chance to gain "burst qi" when me...

Along with setting up the crafting system, I'm also at work building the inventory screen for the Dimension Ring. I'll make it a bit more polished in future versions of the game, but for now here's a WIP version of the screen.
In the final version you'll be able to switch between the three categories of items (Usable/Gifts, Materials and Gear) -- using items on yourself if you feel the need. You can also view basic information about the items as well.
Once I'm done revamping the...

As of yesterday I managed to set up the inventory system for the spacial ring (allows for keeping and handling of 999 items to start).
I also set up and began testing the crafting mechanics .
I plan to do more intensive testing and tinkering in the coming days, but it's going pretty well.
The images below are just for testing purposes. I hope to improve the overall look and functionality of the system before 0.6's release.

This will, undoubtedly change in the future, but for now this is what I'm rolling with. Thoughts?

One of the things I'm focusing on is improving the main story of the game. A by product of this are new elements to gameplay.
There are 3 techniques you can use to do battle and each require you to focus on Bai Huan's growth in a different way.
The images above explain the three Techniques.

There was an issue where patrons may not have had access to the Patron only content in 0.5 . This is due to an error on my part setting up the content lock.
FYI the scenes are dream sequences, and some other things.
The versions of the game here fix that.

Currently I'm focusing on two major aspects of gameplay -- crafting and body tempering. Crafting will be a large part of Heavenly Peaks, as you will be able to use the items you make to solve many problems, empower yourself or others, give gifts and more.
Body Tempering was mentioned previously, but I didn't go into a ton of detail. Essentially you will have several aspects of your body to improve. Doing so will yield you several benefits, along with making you tougher...

When Bai's eyes close he's often the victim of vivid dreams where his wildest fantasies play out.

With 0.5 released, it's now time to look towards 0.6.
These are a few of the things I hope to improve upon with 0.6's release.
-First things first, I want to improve the "sex" and "replay" mechanics for the game.
My goal?
Once you unlock a sex scene with a vixen you can then replay that scene as long as she has the proper amount of affection for you.

Hello!
For a while now it's been bothering me, the pricing on the reward tiers for the project!
With that in mind, I am going to do the following changes.
New* 2$ Tier. This will allow you to play the unfiltered version of the game, 1 week after release. This doesn't really provide any tangible benefits for me, but it's more of a way for potential patron's to get their feet wet and become a part of the community.
There are some posts that have to be locked simply beca...

Hey folks. Sorry for the massive delay. A lot has been going on with me, but I'm happy to say that I'll be releasing 0.5 in about 3 hours.
I'll briefly recap the additions and also what took so long here:
When I first started I was what you'd consider a newb in Ren'py programming. It's much different than any other system I've used, and it has very particular quirks. When used correctly, it's a good system. But I learned a few bad habits that made things difficult starting out.<...

After experiencing some strange dreams, Bai Huan meets the newest character in the Heavenly Peaks universe. Guobei is mysterious, elusive and hard to decipher initially, but she has a huge role in the game.
She will be making an appearance in version 0.5 of the project, along with Yenay.
In the past couple of days alone over 8 different events have b...

Hello!
I just wanted to keep you updated on the progress of Heavenly Peaks Cultivation.
First and foremost, our dedicated artist has returned from a hiatus. I expected to be able to show you some new visuals (and truthfully that's what I was waiting on) but it just wasn't in the cards. So, for now I'll let you in on some of the development for HP.

A new system has been added to the game that allows the player to temper their body, mi...

I've been working on the project a bit more low-key lately. I anticipate that 0.5 will be released next Friday. This is much longer than I anticipated, and with good reason. There are a few new features and systems being incorporated into the project. I'll briefly discuss them here.
Tempering Body Elements
You will be able to use qi to temper your body, making it more durable. You can temper both your spirit as well as your body and each will have differing effect...

Turns out those Android errors were patched for the engine a few days ago.
Going to give porting to android a try once more (I played on my phone and it seems okay).

0.4 May release a bit sooner than I intended-- which is good!
Today's update is mostly centered around Mai as she helps Bai Huan in his task to stay at the Golden Lotus Academy.
So far I've added 8 Mai related events, new options when you interact with Mai (based on your progress in the main story) and a few more miscellaneous changes and improvements.

I'm releasing 0.3 as we speak.
I'll add some private download links later, but for now you can download at Gamejolt or Itch.
Tomorrow is my birthday, I wanted to release 0.4 (more lewd content) but due to unforeseen events that just wasn't possible and a ton of my time was taken up.
So, you can expect 0.4 next Friday (5/28). This will also give me more time to put more nsfw content into the game, and add some new story elements.
In the meanwhile, I will do a mid-we...

Version 0.3 was supposed to be released today, around 3 PM. I plan to take one additional day to add some extra scenes and events to the game. This is largely due to a personal emergency that popped up at the last minute, my apologies.
So, tomorrow around 2pm , or earlier, version 0.3 will be released.
What can you expect?
- New story content featuring Mai. She will continue to teach you how to become a warrior.
- New features, inventory, crafting, sta...

If you all only knew the amount of work I've done in the past 2-3 days!
I'm now a bit more confident at the release date for 0.3.
After some hiccups, Sunday (5/9) will be the ideal day. I will , however, try to release the next version of the game on Saturday (tomorrow) instead.
Sorry for the delay.

The past few days I've been working with a rendering artist to get some new content added to the game. This will mostly play out as new scenes, poses, etc.
In addition to this, I've also completed Yenay's in-game character and will be adding more story related to her as well.
The images here are a look at 2 of the planned 10 new poses for the project. I plan to release 0.3 on Wednesday, or Thursday at the latest.

I ended up getting distracted by various personal issues and therefore did not get to add as much content as I wished. The next update will be within 3 days and feature the promised lewd content, along with more of the story and a new character -- Yenay.

The goal is to release it on Wednesday (4/28).
These are the features I will be targeting.
- Meditation System : You can gather qi and distribute it to your stats in order to improve them. There are two modes, qi cycle and distribution. Cycling allows you to gather world qi for your needs, while distributing it improves stats based on bonuses accumulated by training.
- Training System : Training increases your stat related "bonuses". A bonus ...

So it turns out, we don't have enough people to get feedback! Instead of limiting the process to patrons completely, I will do periodic public releases in order to get more feedback. The majority of the releases will be exclusive to the patreon page however.

Heavenly Peaks is going to undergo a series of closed testing for the next month and a half -- and you will be a part of it. These playable versions of the game will not be made available to the public for a couple of months still. As an early supporter of Heavenly Peaks you are automatically a play tester. Thanks for your early and continued support!
Because more data is better, I'm also adding an exclusive reward tier for the project regarding this. The number of play testers wi...
