Nadeline Mordred, The Tailor

Got a bit distracted doing what was initially just going to be a concept sketch, but got carried away and here are, some character art for Nadeline the spider woman and tailor found in the harbor. So, I'll be integrating this into her introductory scene and character panel info for the next update

also while ive been on a drawing kick I've added a few more item icons to the game just for fun ~
including the plumping pears, giant strawberries and the fried beast blubber items, so thi...

Azalea, Queen of Feasts

Took a little break from writing and other things to stretch my drawing fingers again lol. Wanted to give the feast queen some art finally instead of just the placeholder piece I had. So now the gluttonous draconic demon has a more realized vision ~

Figured yall might enjoy seeing it before it gets compressed for the game files haha

Another Poll

Just dropping in a little poll to help narrow my focus for the next update. There's a million and one things I want to do and I have a feeling I'm not going to get a whole lot done this month with the on going job hunt and other matters taking up the majority of my time - but none the less, going to shoot for a small update by the end of the month and see what happens ~

so, to narrow things down, I'm planning on focusing on two areas for the next update - Content for the Melmatrian cow...

Packing, Progress and a Poll

Hey everyone, just poking in to let you know how things are going. Been really busy with getting ready to move to a safer state, been packing things up and applying to things like its a full time job lol. We ended daycare for our kiddo to save money, which, while I'm always happy to get more time with my child, they are a handful at this age and returning to around the clock mom mode is difficult. To say the least, I have not had much time to work on Insatiable Hearts, just a few little thing...

Insatiable Hearts 0.23.0

Hiii, I'm still alive 😵‍💫

Finally back with an update for the game, bringing in new art assets, a new date, two new bad ends, two tf sets and a few other things ~

Hope everyone has been alright in this long gap here, I kept starting and stopping a bunch of stuff as I've been juggling applying to jobs and apartments as we're trying to move to a safer state and have kind of been struggling through a period of burn out - hence the major slow down on updates. I'd like to say I...

A winter poll and whats been up

hey everyone, hope all is well and you're having a pleasant holiday season. I just wanted to drop in and let yall know whats been going on, progress and a poll to gauge some stuff going into the new year.

I'll try to keep it brief on the real life struggles, so feel free to skip this paragraph if you just want to know what ive been working on. But long story short, after the election, just, I've been so burnt out. I do not have an update ready yet unfortunately. My attention has ...

Insatiable Hearts v0.22.0

Hey everyone! Got a little update for yall. Ran short on time and had a pretty rough month tbh so some stuff had to be saved for another update. But! You'll see some new art assets, a new doll tf bad end, some frisky harpies on the coast and a couple of other goodies like being able to consume multiple items at once or give Kip a hug, lol

Wasn't all I wanted to get done, but I got pretty sick twice, lost a week to a family visit and my grandfather passed away. So, its honestly be...

Insatiable Hearts V0.21.4

Time. What is time? Where'd the summer go? lol
Got an update for yall and a little catching up. New TFs, new encounters, some items, fixes and more ~

Hope everyone has been hanging in there, its been a bit tumultuous at home, mother in law stayed for like a month which turned out to be more distracting than helpful. I'm still out of a job despite applying like mad and getting interviews, its bleak out there. Plus with being a full time mom, to say the least, i've been exhauste...

Region poll

Since I’m on the road this week, I just want to touch base and see what folk would be interested in to get my gears turning on ideas while I’m out and about lol

I’ll probably do a handful of polls this week

So, for this poll, let’s talk regions

Out of the existing in game areas, broadly speaking, which ones do you want to see some more content in?

Insatiable Hearts 0.1.3D

Hey folks! Been a bit hectic with the job hunt and getting things sorted since the roommate is gone, but got a little update for yall to chew on ~

My focus was a little meandering this time, so I started more than I finished here, so I've certainly got some patching I want to do, but I wanted to get this update as it is now because I'm going to be gone for a few days on a sort of road trip to attend my wife's late grandmother's memorial service.

It's super late at ni...

Insatiable Hearts and the future ~

Hey yall, just popping in to say a few things and share some side material lol. I want to start out and say you all are amazing, this has been the most support I've ever received in a single month and thats wild. I don't know it was just happenstance or if the addition of clothing was that inciting for some of yall. But its a major boon and I hope to continue to deliver on y'all's expectations (and mine) ~

So, a few things I should get out of the way. My roommate has moved out earlier ...

Insatiable Hearts 0.1.3C

Hey folks! Finally got something ready for you after a lot of irl busy stuff and some struggles getting the new clothing system to work, but here's something at least! Hope yall like it. The clothing system is going to be important for a variety of flavor reasons like the game accounting for nudity, scenes or npcs reacting to different clothing types and of course, player customization

right now theres just a handful of new outfits but that'll grow over time, each can be dynamic, comin...

Been a rough month, update soon

Hey folks! Things did not quite go as planned this time around. Hoping I can get this all sorted and have an update out for y'all soon. Lost a good week to illness, according to the tests it wasn't covid but it sure did knock me on my ass sadly, one of the sickest I've been in a long time, been playing catch up since. My wife and baby got sick in turn, and its been bit of a mess at home lol

Anyways, we're all on on the up and up now, so I'm hoping to turn things around shortly.

Just another poll, tidbits and mechanics ~

As I said in the previous post, for the next update I want to try to flesh out some more content for the NPCs but there's a number of mechanics and other tidbits I also want going on the backburner if I can help it. So, just wanted to gauge interest on what from this list folk might want to see from me in the coming updates ~

Insatiable Hearts V0.1.3B

Hey yall, happy spring! Got a decent update for you all, focusing on new TFs, egg laying, some new items and some improved mechanics. Still having struggles at home, some tech issues and still on the dang job hunt, but got some wind in my sails this time around to get some fun stuff added. Not a whole lot in the character driven content unfortunately, but for those who've been waiting on more TFs and other tid bits, this one's for you.

The next update I'm going to be a little more focu...

NPC Poll

It's time I ran another community check. Lots of characters to interact with so far, but not a lot of depth just yet. Broad but shallow. Slowly though, the water level is rising haha.


I just wanted to see again which characters the community loves and who I should be making some more content for. Pick your top 3 npcs of mine, or more. However you want lol.

Insatiable Hearts V0.1.3A

Hey folks! I'm not dead! lol. Been a busy time after the new year. The long short is family, job searching, working on sfw stuff, getting sick, recovering, blah blah blah. The typical messes of life.

Anyways, I'm crawling back with a bit of an update, nothing too crazy, but a nice pin to mark the new year. Admittedly I got torn between too many ideas and had to really cut down in order to not just have a bunch of half backed threads. So, part of my thinking going into 2024 is I'll focu...

The end of 2023, a Patch and a poll

It's been an exciting year. A lot of changes. The game has progressed a lot, I had my first child and I got certified in UX design among all the other things that happened this year and you all have been wonderful advocates the whole way through. Thank you all so much for your continued support, I look forward to bringing fun new content this winter and into 2024.

Below is just a quick patch to cap off some stuff for the latest update as well as to add a little test image pack. If you w...

lol, hey yall! Been a bit.😅

Sorry I kind of fell out of communication, been really busy the last couple months with my UX cert stuff and as of late, the arduous job hunt and daily applications, plus working on a portfolio website and fleshing out said website with sfw employer friendly junk. Fingers crossed I'll start getting interviews come the start of the fiscal year. oof.

Another content poll

Hey folks, just dropping off another poll as I usually do. I don’t know if it exactly helps anyone feel involved in the game’s development, but I also enjoy touching with my base and seeing folks opinions

If you’ve followed how I dev things for a while now you’ve probably noticed the way I like to create is very sporadic. I like to bounce around and circle.

If I started something in one update, I probably won’t finish it until a different update as I’ll have jumped to ...

Hey yall. Dropping off an update finally. Time has been a whole mess for me, thankfully we're in the clear soon. My UX design certification is nearly complete, I'll be walking away with 8 certification comes mid October. (then just comes the job hunt, weee, but, also, free time for my projects ~)

Keeping up with my courses and taking care of my poor baby as they go through their 8th month sleep regression and first round of teething has been, pretty rough. Ontop of the choas with our r...

just, well, things are a real mess right now at home. 


So, I've been laid off at work. I felt it was coming, but still, thought there would be more time. My wife thankfully is the bread winner, but it's going to be a pretty tight budget for a bit here. Good thing I've already got a couple applications out on the winds with my UX certification co...

August’s content poll

Hey again, got one more poll for y’all to indulge me with.

It’s likely going to be a smaller but focused update this month. I’m working on the lead up content for Princess Verallia finally, so the handful of you that know my OCs might be excited about that? Lol

Anyways, I want to make sure I got other interests covered too, so here’s a little poll to gauge what would be good side content to accompany this ~

User Interest Poll

If you know me, I love data, polls and surveys. Haha. I may already have my own ideas and directions I want to take things but getting info and what people enjoy and expect is very valuable to me.

in that regard, Insatiable Hearts contains a variety of kink and I’m curious which of them is the main draws for you all?

Hey folks! Finally swinging back around with some content. Just a smidgen, but it something to crop up out of the mess I've been in lately haha.

The progress I wanted done weeks ago, well, took weeks haah

Finally all moved in, not close to unpacked, but progressing. Settled in, catching headwind again creatively ~

End of the month review

Golly! I don't think I could have predicted how much support I'd be getting this month, you all have been wild and generous. I guess the cow-girl temple was a bigger selling point than I thought it would be. Not that I want to milk it too much, pun intended lol. I feel conflicted with all this support because this is one of my least productive months. My time has been totally drained as of late between my course work, packing for my move and my baby going through their teething phase. To say ...

A goal poll

Hey y’all. Just dropping in with another poll because I love to know where the community is at.

Like I said in the update post, it’s unlikely with the move that I’ll have time for a full fledged update this month, so I’ll just be concentrating on patches and small additions and working more on the cow temple content. But in the mean time I like to plan my course for the next big update.

I’m sure folk are eager for me to continue Amélie’s story, breaking her curse and ...

For now, theres a number of new things. We finally have the cow temple in meadow opened up, you'll have to find a sponsor to join (she shows up in the meadow after asking the temple gate keepers about it). You can join her in a sexual r...

Next TF poll

Hey all, just wanted to squeeze in one more poll to gauge transformation interest so I can start formulating the next in game TF


It might not make it into the next update as I’m trying to make a quicker, more NPC focused update this time, setting things up for later on, like character quests, the Coven bathhouse and the milk monastery’s interior. TFs sometimes take a while to implement, so We’ll see! 


Either way, would love to know what things you ...
