Greetings, dear adventurers!

We are closing in on the new release. If all goes well, it will release on 08/03/2024. If I'm not able to squeeze it all to this date, I'll postpone to the 15/03/2024.

I'm still massively re-working the code, as you know it was completely changed on how the days management is done. I think it's looking really amazing right now, I have to admit, it feels a lot more epic/grand scale now with the unlimited days version.

First things first, let's go ...

Greetings, dear adventurers!

Lot's of great news this week!

As some of you might have caught up wind on discord, I'm working on one of the most requested (if not the most requested) feature on the game. In order to capture the perfect sandbox mode and to allow you to collect all the cards you want in the game, I'm taking out the time limit on the game! What does this imply?

  • So, at code level, this is a massive re-work. I've done almost 70% of the code ...

Greetings, dear adventurers!

Working hard on the next release and progress has been great.

-Re-designed older CG scenes that were not dynamic. Namely Elara, Seraphina and Isla all got new scenes. Here is a short teaser:

Greetings, dear adventurers!

A new release is just less than a month inbound and I'm here to update on what I have been working on:

It was one of the most requested features. The ability to sort the cards by rarity in order to make things easier when the time to battle arrives! Additionally you can hide most of the UI with a button if you wish in order to appreciate all the art in full HD

Finishing up the last touches before the release.

Did a major overhaul on most CGs for the first sex scenes of each char. I'm very happy with the end result.

I went for some dynamic type of scenes and I think the end result looks great.

Happy 2024!

I hope everyone is enjoying their holidays!

As I mentioned, I've been speedrunning trying to get the first release of the game out early next month. I think I will be able to release it in the first week of January!

Still on the process of bugfixing and proofreading it over and over but it's pretty close to having a stable version out.

Expect also the teaser trailer of the game out in the next days! Starting 2024 strong!

The road so far

After almost a year of development, this last months were the ones more intense. From reworking the battle ui, main menu,  improving the portraits of all the characters, creating animations for the portraits and different expressions, improving the CGs, etc. There was also a lot of bugfixing. A LOT.

To give some examples on just some of the changes for the characters:
