Art Preview: Mina's Bath

Lubbio has finished our latest set, which allows us to enjoy Mina's bath almost as much as she does. He's trialling out some new techniques and, I gotta say, the results are looking pretty great.

As we're caught up with our scene art(!), there are some exciting new options in the #content-votes channel on Discord - if you're a $10+ patron, pop on over to have a look at them and choose what gets illustrated next.

Concept Art Preview: Darja, Dragongirl

I don't usually share works-in-progress, but this fabulous draft material from Irrelevant_Art was simply too good to keep to myself. As I hope you'll agree.

Art Preview: Mina's Renegotiation

Our mercantile friend returns! This time, I think she's having trouble with a fitted sheet. More great art from Lubbio, which will feature in our next build.

Character Art Preview: New Emotes

You didn't think that Irrelevant_Art had gone quiet, did you? He's been working on a veritable banquet of new emotes, for many of our cast. Our waifus will be that bit more expressive in the upcoming version.

Art Preview: Malice's Discipline

Malice has been a very naughty girl, and must be punished. A snippet of our latest piece by Lubbio, and *dramatic drum roll* the last scene illustration in our backlog! Hurrah!

To celebrate, I've added some new options to the latest art poll - so if you're a $10+ patron, hop onto Discord and cast your vote.

State Of The Realm: December

It's time for another update! In both senses of the word: version 4.1.2 has been released and is available on Itch (compressed) and Discord (high quality).

December has been a busy month for us - getting 4.1 finished, and now properly stabilised. And honouring all of our respective festive commitments, of course. It also featured the first 'shareholder meeting' dev stream, where I've put out some of our plans for the fo...

Art Preview: Daughters Of The Goddess

I hope you had a lovely culturally-appropriate festive period! I'm currently working on an extra release, hopefully out before the end of the year. It's mostly patches, but we do have a few special surprises - like this bumper illustrated scene by Lubbio

Mali Christmas

It is well-established that I am a horrible grinch who refuses to divert time or resources to seasonal events. But that hasn't stopped Irrelevant_Art from making this short animation for you all, because he's lovely. Season's greetings!

New Reward: Writing Masterclass

Have you ever wanted to be able to write like our writers do? Mattrex, the mind behind much of Heloise & Malice's stories (and plenty more besides), is offering a writing masterclass in the new year.

Our first session will be on Sunday 3rd, 14:00 UTC/GMT, and will be open to backers of Dreamweaver tier or higher. If that includes you, send Mattrex a short piece or snippet of your writing (about 200-300 words) via PM on Discord.

Character Art Preview: Darja's Puppets

Something a little cute and unusual to celebrate my return from vacation: a fully illustrated set of Darja's puppets, for use in the next version! I asked for them in a slightly different style to the rest of the portraiture, because - when the scene is in its full glory - I want it to reflect the slightly oddball version of the world that exists in Darja's head.

These were commissioned from franticdare View Post

Version 4.1.1 Released

Big news first: Ravager 4.1.1 is out! For everyone! You can get it over on our Itch page.

As you can probably tell from its sizeable changelog, this has been a fairly titanic effort for all of us. We've moved another two steps forward in the main plot, added a lot of new media, and have some exciting surprises for those of you who like to go digging.

Now I'm gonna go on half-holiday for a week, play some of those other exciting games that have ju...

State Of The Realm: November

Hi folks! It's our monthly update, with all the hot goss from the dragon's lair. What's happened in November?

  • We're very nearly done with version 4.1, which should receive a public release in less than a week's time. This brings our main plot forward another couple of steps, with a lot of branching content along the way. There's no shortage of other content, either.
  • Irrelevant_Art has joined us as a character and makeup artist, w...

Character Art Preview: Cuchilla, Stripped Down

HOAH! Fresh off the Irrelevant_Art press comes our latest variant set - this time, it's Cooch, ready for a workout. Wielding the only guns you'll see in this setting.

Building Towards A Climax

Good morning, everyone! After a flurry of activity last week, we've got v4.0.7 ready for your delectation - patrons can pick it up over on Discord. It features oodles of new art, some thrilling adventures with Mina, and some shiny voice acting magic. I'm really pleased with how even our interim releases contain loads of content these days - that's thanks to our bigger team and bigger budget, so thank you all.

Our next release will be the much-awaited View Post

Character Art Preview: Adeline, Nude

Ah, is there any perk better than being the first to see Adeline in the buff? Thanks to Irrelevant_Art, now you can.

The Serpent's Tongue(s)

I've received a few questions about getting Ravager translated - and, though I don't have the resources to do that while I'm still making the game, RenPy has some fabulous tools for collaboration.

If you're interested in translating Ravager to your favoured tongue, let me know on Discord and I can give you a translator's toolkit. Be warned: the game is quite long, but you don't have to do it all at once. I recommend starting with c1.rpy, and going from there. View Post

Character Art Preview: Mina, Countess

Our latest character art from Irrelevant_Art comes courtesy of popular request. In the next version, you'll be able to give Mina a dress suitable for her new station. And potentially make a few of your own adjustments to it.

Hop on over to Discord if you're a $10+ patron, and would like a say in our cast's upcoming wardrobe.

Art Preview: Cuchilla's Exorcism

Our latest piece from Lubbio concerns Cuchilla, a cheeky wisp called Garren, and our heroic protagonist (not pictured). It looks to be quite the event.

Art Preview: Maelys, Nude

Our second piece by Irrelevant Art is our beloved huntress, badly in need of a hug and a mug of hot cocoa. More so than usual, at least. Next, their talents will be turned to something you haven't seen before - Mina's baroness outfit! And after that, whatever the Discord polls dictate. I'm stoked.

A Generous God

Version 4.0.6 is live for patrons! You can pick up your copy over on Discord. And if you're a $10+ patron, be sure to check out the new #content-polls channel. We're running votes for the next:

  • Scene art
  • Character art
  • Ladies' idle animation
  • Gentlemen's idle animation
  • Scene animation

A new one goes up every few days, so keep your eyes peeled.

I'm going to have a quick break and fiddle with my ne...

Art Preview: Mother's Milk

Our latest art from Lubbio illustrates the most natural thing in the universe: an elf nursing her apocalyptic snake-abomination of a daughter. Aww. You'll see the full set, as well as another, in this weekend's upcoming build.

State of the Realm: October

Happy Hallowe'en/Samhain/All Hallow's Eve/Gothmas, as denominationally appropriate! This has been an unprecedentedly good month for Ravager, and I wanted to give you all a quick update on how it's going.

  • Our team is currently expanding, and you might soon see the work of two new writers - provided they survive our hazing process with their souls (relatively) intact.
  • Operation Inspiring Name has begun, with the intent of getti...

New Rewards: Stream, Chat, & Gaming

Hi folks! I've wanted to give a little extra kickback to our staunchest backers for a while, and with my new full-time commitment that's much easier to make a reality. In fact, there are two kickbacks:

Weekly Stream & Dev Chat

Once my smallest furry assistant is properly settled into her new home, I will start weekly livestreams on Sundays, 16:00-18:00 UTC. I'll be doing something relatively low-intensity, so that I'm available to voi...

Animation Preview: Adeline, Enhanced

We've come a ways since the earliest days of our animation. Amon Ra has produced an enhanced set of Adeline's idles which, I'm sure you agree, have a lot more heft to them.

Animation Preview: Marie-Anne, Nude

Of course, I don't want to spam you with dev updates - I want to spam you with art, as well. Amon Ra is applying his talents to our new character art variants, starting with our wholesome beauty Marie-Anne.

Ravager Needs You

We've come a very long way from where we were a year ago, or even six months ago! Our budget is growing, and so is our team. We're able to produce builds with several new scenes every couple of weeks. And with a little finessing, we can accelerate that process even more.

If you're backing us, you're already helping. Nothing gives us the ability to expand like Patreon dolla - so if you provide your support or raise your pledge, you're doing your part to bring the game to fruitio...

The Next Challenge

Hi folks! A new build is up for our backers, the amazing v4.0.5 "Portals & Portholes". If you haven't got a hold of it yet, pop on over to Discord and check out the #game-builds channel. It's got some really excellent new content, from a variety of our writers and artists. And if you enjoy it, let them know!

Today is my relaxation day, which is also my reflection day. I'll be working out how to tackle our current priorities, i.e.: View Post

Maëlys: Custom Voice Acting Commissions

Our voice acting budget may be (temporarily) reduced, but our VAs still need love!

Ilhana (Maëlys) is now taking custom voice acting commissions. Is there something you’d like her to say for you? She's happy to voice smut, nice fuzzy things, or - as is the case with Alduranissys's script here - your favourite shitposts. 

Send her a script via Discord and she’ll bring it to life. Or maybe you’d just like her to hang out...

How do you eat your delicious dragon shake? With a spoon, of course! More sumptuous art from Lubbio, ready for the next build.

Art Preview: Cuchilla's Drinking Problem

In our latest piece by Lubbio, we can clearly see that Cooch has a drinking problem - specifically, she's spilt her lovely white chocolate martini all down her front. Poor girl.

Next up is Mother, getting her first scene illustrated just in time for Hallowe'en! And after that... well, that depends on the #benefactors channel.
