Dear Patrons,
We hope you are all doing well!
Today, we would like to share a preview of the playable Kobold ending.
After getting one of the Kobold endings, you will be thrown into a playable segment afterwards. You will get to choose one of the four Kobold types and have to complete various tasks around the mansion. Not all of them can be completed by every Kobold, though, so keep a look out for the indicators above. Each completed task earns you points, and after six m...

Dear Patreons!
Its finally time for another update! Hopefully without some immediate fixes needed this time.
We really hope that you have a good time exploring all the new content~
Will you try to claim yourself victorious over the new boss lounging around in the mansions garden area~ Or are you going to experience the new kobold ending? Either way, be sure to be prepared!
We would love to hear your thoughts! So feel free to share them on here or in our Discord!

Dear Patrons,
We are still hard at work on the upcoming update, and the endings are starting to come together! There is still a bit of writing and one more ending picture to finish, but we hope to have everything ready for you soon.
In the meantime, please enjoy this small preview of one of the new endings! I bet some of you would switch with Kaelin without hesitation~
And as always, thank you so much for your continued support.
We really appreciate it.

We hope you're all doing well!
Development progressing is going smoothly though there is still some writing and artwork left to finish. We are currently aiming to have the next update ready in about two weeks.
Below, you will find another preview of the Musk Dragon, this time his dialogue portrait.
We are also expanding the Patreon Room, as we need more space for the new investigators. So there's still plenty to do as we prepare all the content for this n...

Dear Patrons,
the voting poll may still be open, but a clear winner has already emerged with several votes ahead of the rest!
So we have gone ahead and already added the new "enemy": Nex’s pet slug, which you will encounter on the kitchen floor. It might be small and slow, but its grapple could prove effective at keeping Kaelin docile.
We also completed the remaining rooms on the mansion’s first floor (with the exception of the ballroom, which will be used for the Ravus ...

Hello everyone!
In the upcoming kitchen area featured in the next update, Kaelin will encounter another one of Nex’s devious traps. We brainstormed a few different ideas for how this could play out, but we are not quite sure which one to go with. So, we are leaving the decision up to you and start a vote!
Below, you will find three concept, each designed with one goal in mind: capturing Kaelin.
Please vote for the idea you would like to see in the next update!

Hopefully you all had a pleasant week! The coding for the mini boss and another room were finished this week and we are making steady progress towards the next update.
This week we will take a look at another upcoming room.
In this smaller part of the garden you may find a shed, guarded by four more Kobolds. What could possibly be inside? Additionally, you may also find another one of Zippy's shop portals. The stock might have changed, so it is worth it to take...

We hope you all had a wonderful week! We have been busy working on the dragon boss fight and wanted to give you a small preview of what to expect. Please keep in mind that it is still a work in progress and might change.
During the fight, the dragon will command his minions to chase you down. Dodge them, unless you would like to share their fate and be carried into the claws of your new, sweet-smelling master.
All while there will be several more attacks for...

Hey everyone!
We hope you're all doing well.
It’s been a busy work week for us! So it was nice to take the weekend off, with a friend visiting us.
So while we continue working on the next few rooms (there will be four in the upcoming update!) and the mini boss, we wanted to give you a little behind-the-scenes look at our development process.
Most of the sprites and rooms you see in the game start out as rough shapes. We test them in-game during gameplay to see how they ...

In this room, you will encounter several Kobolds ready to show you a good time with their new grapple, plus secrets waiting to be discovered!
We also ran into some technical difficulties this week, likely due to updating GameMak...

Today, we would like to give you a preview of the cursed equipment that will be introduced in the next update!
While exploring the mansion, you may come across special pieces of clothing belonging to Ravus. These items have strange effects on Kaelin and change his appearance depending on the number of pieces you wear. Equipping all three will unlock the corruption bar, which can lead to a new ending if it reaches its maximum.
Two of the items can be obtained by...

Hello everyone!
in preparation of the upcoming cursed equipment - some of which we also want to alter Kaelin’s sprite - we have reworked the attack animations and added a new running animation.
This change will also be reflected in gameplay, as Kaelin now moves slightly faster, even without upgrades. The walking animation will still appear if you are affected by a slow debuff.
We hope you enjoy these new animations, and we can't wait to bring you the next content.

What would a release be without some quick bug fixing?
There was a bug that prevented the kobold endings to play outside of grapples.
This is fixed now.

Dear Patreons,
it's time to finally conclude the suggestion poll!
The cursed armor got the most votes and will therefore be added in a future update!
To accommodate that we changed the code to include equippable items in the game.
Additionally, we also decided to work on a dragon mini-boss, as the 2nd place winner to be relased in the same update as the cursed armor!
Below you can find a preview of the changed equipment system.

Unfortunately, we don't have anything to show today.
We are currently working on two small endings that we want to add before releasing on itch.io.
These endings will be a bit more hidden and not as easy to find. The coding is already done and we can now focus on the writing and art. We expect to finish within the next two weeks.
