WEEKLY UPDATE!! 7/14/24

Happy Sunday everyone! Despite me getting hit with a pretty bad cold in the middle of the week, I managed to hit one of my milestones by finishing all the sketches necessary for scenes! I finished 5 this week, which for me, feels like a lot! Here’s a quick preview of one of them!

I also wanted to share another enemy type that I briefly previewed in a past update. Th...

WEEKLY UPDATE!! 7/7/24

Howdy everybody! I hope your week was good. Mine was, despite the sweltering heat that persists where I live. Getting the 4th of July off was a real boon as I was able to get a good amount of work done that day, ahead of the weekend. It let me begin mapping out a new area, the Shrouded Institute. 

This hidden school is located deep within the Rotten Grove. No one alive kn...

WEEKLY UPDATE!! 6/30/24

Greetings once again everybody! Chugging along this week, I drafted up the exterior and part of the interior for a new location, the Gauthier Residence, home of Clover and her mother, Duchess Isolde Gauthier.

Isolde and her family hold great influence in the actions of the church. Her family has a history and positive association with them. This makes her something of a celebri...

WEEKLY UPDATE!! 6/23/24

This week I continued working on the new enemy types I mentioned previously. I’ve finished working on two of them and implemented them into the game. That being the blade wielding Edge Weaver and master of cross combat, the Righteous Acolyte.

These enemy types focus on a specific set of skills (Knife/Dagger and Cross respectively).They will be fought th...

Bonus Art! Alexandria Swimsuit Pinup

No update today, but I did work on this illustration of Alexandria in my spare time. I hope you like it!

WEEKLY UPDATE!! 6/9/24

While I continued work on the next contract quest, I came upon an idea that I decided I wanted to implement for this update. Watchers of my work may remember me posting this character sketch on the right long ago. 

This character remained unused as I could not think of a way to implement her. I had compelling ideas for her backstory, but she just didn’t fit into what I was making at the ...

WEEKLY UPDATE!! 6/2/24

This week, I have continued focusing on artwork, scanning in my hand drawn sketches and beginning work on the digital color versions. Since I have a lot to work on at once, I decided to set a goal of doing just the line art for each of the characters first. I often find myself demotivated after finishing an illustration, only to move on to the next one and have to start the drawing/editing process over again. With this system, I've given myself smaller, achievable goals each day while keeping...

WEEKLY UPDATE!! 5/26/24

Happy Sunday everyone! I hope you’re all well. It’s been a Crammed week for me but I was determined to finish some character sketches.

First, I’d like to share a design for a new enemy type, the Alchemist.

Like the previous enemies I’ve shared, this gal focuses on a specific skill set, in this case Bomb skills. She comes across as proud of the explosive concoction...

1. Title: Digging up the Dead

By: DatSpyCrab

Mila is contacted by an anonymous vampire, who informs her of a sudden influx of the Knights of Friedrich into the Rotten Grove. They have apparently uncovered some sort of ancient tomb within the forest and, believing it to hold a powerful vampire, are trying to explore it and slay the elder before he wakes.

7. Title:The Witch of Science

By: ERrOrDC404

A growing suspicion arises among the vampire community regarding the immunity of the Knights of Friedrich against vampire manipulation, attributed either to magical prowess or advanced technology. In their quest for answers, a faction of vampires ventures into the previously uninhabitable Badlands, discovering a clandestine laboratory concealed within its depths. This covert facility is bustling with so...

WEEKLY UPDATE!! 5/12/24

It’s been a challenging week for me personally. I don’t want to get into the details, but it's been emotionally stressful and I haven’t felt particularly creative. I did a bit of work on importing older maps to the vampire route, but they aren’t in a sharable state yet. I did some art to try and pull myself out of this funk. It’s a sketch of Alexandria in a swimsuit(?) I’ll probably get to coloring this at some point.  This isn’t art for the game by the way...

Hello everyone!

I want to thank each of the new patrons who joined for last week’s game update release! I hope everyone who has played the game has been able to enjoy the new content! I also want to thank all of you who have messaged me with any issues that you’ve encountered. You’ve helped iron out plenty of blind spots that I missed and made the game better for everyone. I believe I have been able to address and correct all of the issues sent to me so far, but there is still a w...

Quick update

I have updated both of the game's download links with a quick patch that should prevent the Humilem Chapel from locking you out.

I will do more research into this issue tomorrow, but for now, you can download a newer version that should solve that issue. I will look into any other issues tomorrow.

Thank you!

WEEKLY UPDATE!! 4/7/24

Spent this week doing clean up on the game and messing around with it some more. I’ve added a few tweaks to some Pets! I’ve revised the skill list for some of them, adding additional attack skills to their repertoire. For example, Lauren, Bianca, and Seraphina can now learn thunder based magic skills. Is Oozora giving you trouble? Try changing to a Pet that has a thunder skill and zap her for additional damage! 

What’s more, I have removed the lock on...
