Ok now I'm heartbroken...damn u Vic...i made eshtel my target n tried to avoid every other h scene possible only to be a wingman 😭😭
But seriously the game is awesome man...great start and it just keeps getting better..u hav done a fentastic job of story telling so far i just wish for avoiding certain scenes n to have more choices so i can hav a bit more control..like for example to avoid being a wingman n go headstrong for eshtel ahahaha...i just hope I can win over eshtel later in the game so pls make my dream come true 🙏
Thank you so much for your kind words! Sadly, I'm a far better writer than I am a coder, so I don't know how to do branching paths with different endings yet lol. This is more like one big, long story and well... no spoilers, but don't fret too much. You may get your chance yet. Just be aware this is a harem game, and a harem you shall have lol.
Next update drops in a couple weeks to the public, so I hope you're ready!
So there is still a ray of hope for me 🥳... As for coding i don't think the game gonna end anytime soon and i definitely don't want it to end...ever ....so there is still room for improvement on that front no pressure brotha..truth be told u hav done a great job so far.
Thank you so much! Been working on it for a year and a half so far, and not planning on dropping it anytime soon. There are 4 planned story arcs, and we're in the first one.
No NTR, not ever. Now, there WILL be characters that the MC does NOT have access to that have relationships with others. But none of the MC's love interests will become physical with other dudes. The community has been VERY adamant about that, and I aim to listen.
Out of curiosity, why don’t people like NTR? I personally love stealing girls from others. Make the girls cheat with me. Love that, why do people hate it? I don’t get it.
I won't speak for everyone, as there are many other people with different experiences, but the soul crushing feeling of being cheated on and made to think it was my fault for it happening is not fun. I don't like to see it because it happened to me in the past, but that's just personally my take on it. Hope this helped a little into the understanding
I've been a huge fan of the game for a bit over half a year now and it's not just the no NTR so sorry for the placement of this comment but how involved you are as a creator with the whole game is part of what makes it so amazing. You can tell that you genuinely care about the world and put your feelings and soul into it, leaving some stretches with few h-scenes for a while but having better story than many books or shows out there. The way this whole project is handled with genuine love makes it feel so real and stand out from other games in every aspect.
P.S. I'm putting this comment here because part of the fun of this game is your personal touch and the friendliness and comedy we get from you as an author as well which just makes it that much better
Btw regardless of what the project is your level of involvement with the audience, caring for the people playing it and the project itself, even shown in your speed to reply is a level above what most other creators care to do. Because of this I'm sure there are many other people like me that really enjoy the game for free now as just incredible entertainment and I plan to support you when I have more disposable income (in college now so not an option rn)
$75 is equal to the amount being paid by the current Patreon tier that gets access to it first. Please read my most recent devlog; it tells you exactly when the game's price decreases, and exactly when it will be free to all :)
I wasn't sure at first, but this really grew on me. I like how it keeps expanding. I enjoy the storytelling. I love the exotic characters and world lore.
The developer said this was their first VN and that they were learning. I think I can see that play out over this experience and hope they continue to push out new content.
This game is ridiculously preachy. The main character can't go 10 seconds talking to somebody without some cheesy lines about body positivity and it's the same recycled conversation with every character. I'm all for body positivity, but the dialogue just really, really sucks my attention away from the game. For instance, the entire conversation with Rukah in the art room the first time you talk to her. It reads like a fanfic written by a woman that has never talked to a guy before.
I'm sorry that's how you feel about it. The rest of the thousands of people who have given feedback on the game love the MC, say he's a breath of fresh air in a sea of complete douche MCs who don't seem to care who they damage in pursuit of their endeavors. This is a slow burn AVN with huge emotional and story-driven undertones. If you're looking for a quick snap and fap game, this ain't it, chief.
Well I'm gonna be honest here..i personally like the mc and every other charecter in the game have their quirks that makes them really interesting individually...i believe it's on the right track i don't have any trouble with story telling and i like how the conversation goes btw two charecters...huge thumbs up for that 👍
Interesting. I could have sworn I removed that piece of code in the bug fix patch. Well then! It's fixed in the next build, so ya won't have to worry about it once that releases.
There is one short scene in which the MC is given oral by a harpy girl without his consent, but I'm working on making that avoidable/rewriting it. There is no other non-con in this game.
Oh are you talking about Ravager? Great game. Inspired me to start working on a couple of clans of dragon chicks, but I haven't finished them. Yeah, sorry to disappoint you, but this game is pretty different from most adult games. I wrote the main character to be pretty wholesome and emotionally intelligent, and the story quality is what carries it, not the h-content. Hopefully you'll give it a shot anyway :)
Now I felt bad for judging the game. Now, I want to try it out of pity. Maybe I shouldn't say that because don't want to sound like a dick. Yeah, Ravager I would love to make a game based on that.
But I don't know how to make a visual novel game like that.
No experience, no digital art skill; my art isn't that great with drawing humanoid characters and I am still new to typing grammar and never publish anything.
(kept on bailing ideas) because I am autistic.. but I realized I shouldn't let it slow me down and try to get something out there.
.. I always want to be a game creator for hentai games (Not just hentai thought but sex games it's on of my passion)
but there's content I want to create in games that might get me shut down on founding site
(But I saw them selling real illegal shit going through the loop holes and I don't understand that is okay?) (I fine anything with fiction that's kind of person I am)
... because I want to be a creator with no boundaries .. anyways that's enough rambling. If you a fund raise that has no limitations come to fictional hentai content let me know.
Actually, I not sure I can post on itcho even with anime characters I think main characters who are monsters can go around that hole.. not sure mhhh.
To be honest they are some problems with Ravager to enough places to explore, I hope they add more characters like (anime princesses that I kidnapped and among other characters)..
more kinks I would like breast milk and nipple plowing.
Wait did they game said all characters are eighteen in the beginning? I forget because Draja is questionable look young characters to be honest I don't when it comes to fictional character; I don't dwell that deep and you are playing as a dragon so would people care?
I am sorry rambling sir I will try the game eventually and see if still like the game.
I feel you on that, and I do have some answers for you. I'm basically brand new to making these types of games as well. Had to teach myself to use Ren'Py and Ai Shoujo, the game that I made all the characters in. And I discovered you can make some really high quality stuff this way. HoneySelect 2 and Ai Shoujo are great for more realistic characters, and Koikatsu Party is for the more anime, more cartoony looking ones. Look up the BetterRepack versions of the game and you can download fully modded versions of these games that get mod updates fairly often.
As for where to release/where to get support, if your game has questionable content, your best platform for support is probably SubscribeStar. They care a LOT less than Patreon does about the game content. As for where to release, if your stuff is REALLY off the rails, LewdCorner has a section for games that were banned from F95Zone where your game might find a good home. That banned section is pretty popular on LC.
And I think a lot of creators have to SAY that their characters are 18+ to avoid trouble with the platforms. Some games, like Daddy's Little Girls, skirt this issue by letting the PLAYER enter the characters' names, ages, and relations, and having the defaults set to at least 18. That way, if something changes, it's on the player, not the dev.
And don't ever worry about rambling lol I love when people are passionate about games. Makes me want to work harder on mine.
Hands down one of the best H-games I've ever played. So refreshing to play a protag that I actually like, finally I don't have to play as a creepy pseudo-predatory horndog.....i can play as a kind pro-consent horndog!
Thank you so much! That was exactly my goal when I wrote Aurum. I wanted him to be different from the typical H-game MC. They tend to be dicks and treat people like shit. Aurum is kind and emotionally intelligent. Just as interested in a girl's mind and heart as her body, and I'm glad that's showing through. Thank you for your kind words!
just started the game (0.1.5 with bug fix) and the game crashes when I try to open the character book (still in the prologue, after I got the notification "Gillie’s Gallery Unlocked!" and the menu got available).
Renpy throws the error "NameError: name 'gillie_met' is not defined" and that's true: I poked a little bit in your code and you set "met" variables but only persistent ones (e.g. '$ persistent.gillie_met = True' in 00Prologue.rpy::341) but the char book scripts checks for game specific variables (e.g. 'if gillie_met:' in character_book.rpy::110).
imo you should set _both_ variables (persistent.gillie_met = True and gillie_met = True; same for all the other _met) - the first one for the main gallery, the second one to track progress within one game)
PS did you change the variable name from UL_<name>_met to <name>_met in one of the releases? there's a block of defaults for the first set in gamevar.rpy, never used in the scripts
I'm currently in chapter 2 and noticed by chance that the upper left corner gives access to a phone.
opening the first messages screen throws the error "Could not find font u'Abel-Regular.ttf'", but after adding the font to the game directory one can only read "This is first message from aoibheann", looks more like some kind of dev experiment?
and changing the background image gives the error 'jade_wallpaper2 not found' (but hey, no exception ;))
You guessed it! These are two experimental features I was testing and forgot to hide the screens on lol. The character book will likely be dropped but the phone system is done and should be included in the next build. Good eye!
I'm aiming for June for the next build since the game will turn 1 year old by then, but I don't know if I can make it because this next build is packed with a ton of content and extra features, such as optional scenes and a new phone system I'm trying to learn how to use. People told me the days were a little light on content, so I'm trying to pack more events and scenes into each day. What might end up happening is an early release of 2 or 3 days' worth of content in May or June, and the rest of the week hopefully a month or two after. I've been having a LOT of ideas lately, and some of them conflict, so choosing which path to take with the main story has been really tough, and that's slowed down the production quite a bit. But I'm scripting and scripting away, and you'll have it in your hands eventually. :)
Just wanted to say that I very much enjoyed the game, and that I cannot wait for the next version. This game has tons of potential that I'm very convinced that you will let shine in the next update. Also, I saw the news of your unfortunate accident, I am glad that you're well! Skal!
This was handled by the patch file that is shown when you enter the Downloads area here on Itch. Download the patch and have the new file overwrite the old files. Or, you can hit Ignore and the scene will continue. I accidentally left in an old variable. Skip the variable and the scene continues as normal.
There is an unofficial Android port on F95zone.com. I have no way to test Android ports, so I haven't been making them. However, due to the high volume of requests, I'm going to try one with the next build.
Thank you so much! Updates take a really long time because I'm the only one working on the project, but I promise you it will not be abandoned! Glad you like it and thank you for your kind words!
I will be trying for an android version on the next update. I can't test android versions, so there may be bugs. Also, there is an unofficial android port on F95Zone. Search for World's Crossing Academy there and you should find it.
Funny story about that, I'm not a DS player, so I didn't recognize it lol. When the first person who noticed it told me, I panicked, thinking I had to reshoot that whole scene. Then I learned that companies don't typically go after Ren'Py creators and I was able to unclench and keep working lol
I just started playing this game yesterday and I've only gotten up to day five but it's been a really amazing experience so far. I'm pretty sure that I've played over 20 VN's this year alone but this one is definitely a cut above the rest. The writing is amazing and the animation quality is beautiful. The art is stunning and the game runs smoothly. This is definitely the best non big name company visual novel I've played since Katawa Shoujo. I hope you keep up the good work and I'm able to fix my PC soon so I can switch from the mod APK to the PC version for the full experience. Thanks for making this.
There's no schedule yet as I don't have sufficient Patreon backing to be able to dedicate time to the project. I'm working on it when I can. I'm aiming for a new week to come out every 3 to 4 months if I can do so. As I get better and better at things, I'm hoping to improve the rate at which I can get these updates out. I'm smoothing out my process and figuring out how to optimize my workflow. Eventually, I hope to make enough with this that I don't have to rely on a traditional job, which means I'd be working on this nearly full-time.
One can hope. Until then, I'll get updates out as soon as I can! Thank you so much for your interest!
Ahh thank you for the full explanation and i understand your situation! I hope your game will get alot of more interest i love it akd ive never seen dryads and goblins being done so good! I will absolutly support your patreon!
Thank you! The Dryad characters are actually from my original series The Riftkey Chronicles. Here's Wither's original art. Sadly, I don't have her showing up in the series until around Book 7 or so.
Saarya is also featured in the series, but I never had full body art done of her. The series uses Dryads as a main race, as their language is where magic comes from. Fun fact, the Dryad language in the game is the same as the Dryad language in the book, and if you know it, you can actually translate it to English.
Thank you! I'm an author, so I'm still getting used to writing in choices and whatnot instead of just straight up telling a story. I appreciate your feedback!
Hi, just downloaded the game and received this error: ------------------------------------------------------- I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred. While running game code: File "game/gallery.rpy", line 4, in script $ persistent.playername = playername File "game/gallery.rpy", line 4, in script $ persistent.playername = playername File "game/gallery.rpy", line 4, in <module> $ persistent.playername = playername NameError: name 'playername' is not defined ------------------------------------------------- After opening the file and changing the line $ persistent.playername = playername to $ persistent.playername = "playername" it is ok
Seems to work fine for me. Did you try to open the Gallery before you started the game and set the character's name? Because you have to set the character's name before you can access the Gallery screen.
In the beginning of the game. You have to actually start the game before you can use the Gallery. And there's no point in opening the Gallery if you haven't started the game because nothing is unlocked yet. So be sure to hit the Start button at the main menu. The first screen asks what you want to call yourself. Type in a name, or leave it blank to make it the default name, "Aurum."
If there are any further problems, let me know, and I'll see if a fix is needed!
Hi, thank you for the quick fix. No problems starting the game now Unfortunately, I encountered two other errors, during the private time with Aoibheann --------------------------- I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Thank you! I have a hotfix coming for the Aoibheann issue; I forgot to comment out the Skip section when I took out the H-scene warnings. For the second one, I've submitted it to the guy who did the gallery for me; I'm not cool enough to code a gallery lol. It'll be dealt with as fast as possible!
Yup! Just extract it as a separate game and run it; from what I understand, it does pick up your save file. If you have trouble, lemme know, and I can show you how to port your save files over!
That being said, the new build hits public in 6.5 hours, so... it's not a long wait!
I tried to play the free one, however this error happened. Is it on my end or the files?
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Sounds like one of the SFX folders got corrupted in transit somehow. Here's an alternate way to download the PC version: https://drive.google.com/file/d/11e3U9isLFmuouWmX-ULTM9rAV8WXOsuv/view?usp=shari... Thankfully, this build will be taken down within the week, and Chapter 5 will be the public version starting on 11/26. Let me know if the Drive version still gives you issues.

Yes, there is a spirit who is trying to warn you of... certain things. I believe there are a total of... 4 or 5 "jumpscares," and they're all in the bathroom, right after you wash your face, all the same screen, the one above. So when you see the MC's hands washing his face, you can take off your headphones real quick and avoid the jumpscare. The only reason they're jumpscares is because she doesn't really know any other way to contact you besides via your mirror, and I wanted to add some tension to the scene.
They're easy to avoid if you don't like jumpscares.
My Ren'Py absolutely does have the capability of making an Android port, but the resolution of the images may be an issue. There's an unofficial Android port on the F95zone forums under the same name if you wanna try it and see how it goes!
I gotta say after playing chpters 1-4 I'm so totally hooked on this and I'm downright enjoying this game. You're doing a great job so far. The atmosphere you give certain scenes I love it and god the characters are just so loveable(excluding cecilia). I can't wait to see this games future progression.
Thank you so much! I have a very small content update containing the next 2 days of the story and a whole bunch of quality of life changes already out to patrons, and coming to the public on the 19th!
Honestly? This is my first game, and I know nothing about publishing on Steam. For now, I'm just gonna keep it here on Itch. As I learn more about game development, I may consider Steam at a later date. For now, there are no plans to release on Steam.
This is a great game so far. I'm not even to the parts of real sex yet. I'm enthralled by the story and its twists on the characters' backgrounds. Nice! Keep it going!
I've never been so impressed by an initial release. I'll be backing this on Patreon as soon as I'm out of my financial tough spot because I'm eager to see more.

Have to say, the goblin girls are my favorite of the lot so far.
I'm so proud of how popular they've gotten that I've started making more.
Thank you for your kind words!
You did a fantastic job with them. Goblins always get a bad rap, glad to finally see someone paint them in a different light.
hee vic could you plz respond on Discord its solved the small problem i had i got my discord account bac
Ok now I'm heartbroken...damn u Vic...i made eshtel my target n tried to avoid every other h scene possible only to be a wingman 😭😭
But seriously the game is awesome man...great start and it just keeps getting better..u hav done a fentastic job of story telling so far i just wish for avoiding certain scenes n to have more choices so i can hav a bit more control..like for example to avoid being a wingman n go headstrong for eshtel ahahaha...i just hope I can win over eshtel later in the game so pls make my dream come true 🙏
Thank you so much for your kind words! Sadly, I'm a far better writer than I am a coder, so I don't know how to do branching paths with different endings yet lol. This is more like one big, long story and well... no spoilers, but don't fret too much. You may get your chance yet. Just be aware this is a harem game, and a harem you shall have lol.
Next update drops in a couple weeks to the public, so I hope you're ready!
So there is still a ray of hope for me 🥳... As for coding i don't think the game gonna end anytime soon and i definitely don't want it to end...ever ....so there is still room for improvement on that front no pressure brotha..truth be told u hav done a great job so far.
Is there any undead girls to romance like vampires zombies or ghost girls
Oh absolutely. I have 2 so far and 1 more in the concept phase. "Something for Everyone" is my motto.
Hoping this game goes on for along time. The story and characters are great. Cant wait to see where it all leads to.
Thank you so much! Been working on it for a year and a half so far, and not planning on dropping it anytime soon. There are 4 planned story arcs, and we're in the first one.
Awesome I look forward to playing it all. Knowing me I'll also replay them a lot.
Have to ask, is there NTR in this game? If so, is it avoidable?
No NTR, not ever. Now, there WILL be characters that the MC does NOT have access to that have relationships with others. But none of the MC's love interests will become physical with other dudes. The community has been VERY adamant about that, and I aim to listen.
Thank you for the reassurance! I'll for sure have to check it out now, that's a big relief that there's no NTR stuff!
Out of curiosity, why don’t people like NTR? I personally love stealing girls from others. Make the girls cheat with me. Love that, why do people hate it? I don’t get it.
I won't speak for everyone, as there are many other people with different experiences, but the soul crushing feeling of being cheated on and made to think it was my fault for it happening is not fun. I don't like to see it because it happened to me in the past, but that's just personally my take on it. Hope this helped a little into the understanding
I've been a huge fan of the game for a bit over half a year now and it's not just the no NTR so sorry for the placement of this comment but how involved you are as a creator with the whole game is part of what makes it so amazing. You can tell that you genuinely care about the world and put your feelings and soul into it, leaving some stretches with few h-scenes for a while but having better story than many books or shows out there. The way this whole project is handled with genuine love makes it feel so real and stand out from other games in every aspect.
P.S. I'm putting this comment here because part of the fun of this game is your personal touch and the friendliness and comedy we get from you as an author as well which just makes it that much better
This just makes me want to work harder and get more content out to all of you. Thank you so much.
Btw regardless of what the project is your level of involvement with the audience, caring for the people playing it and the project itself, even shown in your speed to reply is a level above what most other creators care to do. Because of this I'm sure there are many other people like me that really enjoy the game for free now as just incredible entertainment and I plan to support you when I have more disposable income (in college now so not an option rn)
That's very kind of you. I really just love chatting with people about the game lol that's it.
Will the android version be free anytime soon? $75 is a bit much.
$75 is equal to the amount being paid by the current Patreon tier that gets access to it first. Please read my most recent devlog; it tells you exactly when the game's price decreases, and exactly when it will be free to all :)
I wasn't sure at first, but this really grew on me.
I like how it keeps expanding.
I enjoy the storytelling.
I love the exotic characters and world lore.
The developer said this was their first VN and that they were learning. I think I can see that play out over this experience and hope they continue to push out new content.
Great start.
This game is ridiculously preachy. The main character can't go 10 seconds talking to somebody without some cheesy lines about body positivity and it's the same recycled conversation with every character. I'm all for body positivity, but the dialogue just really, really sucks my attention away from the game. For instance, the entire conversation with Rukah in the art room the first time you talk to her. It reads like a fanfic written by a woman that has never talked to a guy before.
I'm sorry that's how you feel about it. The rest of the thousands of people who have given feedback on the game love the MC, say he's a breath of fresh air in a sea of complete douche MCs who don't seem to care who they damage in pursuit of their endeavors. This is a slow burn AVN with huge emotional and story-driven undertones. If you're looking for a quick snap and fap game, this ain't it, chief.
Well I'm gonna be honest here..i personally like the mc and every other charecter in the game have their quirks that makes them really interesting individually...i believe it's on the right track i don't have any trouble with story telling and i like how the conversation goes btw two charecters...huge thumbs up for that 👍
Eh, I don't believe it's as bad as all that.

You don't have the patch installed. Fixes that issue. Just hit "Ignore" and the scene will continue.
Interesting. I could have sworn I removed that piece of code in the bug fix patch. Well then! It's fixed in the next build, so ya won't have to worry about it once that releases.
I can see great potential coming from this vn.So i'll definitely will be waiting to see how the rest will play out & i hope She Doesn't get killed ;-;
Thank you so much! New update with the last part of Sunday and full Monday through Wednesday of the next week is right around the corner!
Will there be Android release?
Starting with the next build, yes! There exists an unofficial Android port on F95Zone right now that someone else built if you can't wait.
I will wait for official release ^^
Show post...
Wait is there non-con in this game.
There is one short scene in which the MC is given oral by a harpy girl without his consent, but I'm working on making that avoidable/rewriting it. There is no other non-con in this game.
Show post...
Okay, thanks. I wish there's more dark hentai games out there I just play a dragon game that has non-con in it.
Oh are you talking about Ravager? Great game. Inspired me to start working on a couple of clans of dragon chicks, but I haven't finished them. Yeah, sorry to disappoint you, but this game is pretty different from most adult games. I wrote the main character to be pretty wholesome and emotionally intelligent, and the story quality is what carries it, not the h-content. Hopefully you'll give it a shot anyway :)
Show post...
Now I felt bad for judging the game. Now, I want to try it out of pity. Maybe I shouldn't say that because don't want to sound like a dick. Yeah, Ravager I would love to make a game based on that.
But I don't know how to make a visual novel game like that.
No experience, no digital art skill; my art isn't that great with drawing humanoid characters and I am still new to typing grammar and never publish anything.
(kept on bailing ideas) because I am autistic.. but I realized I shouldn't let it slow me down and try to get something out there.
.. I always want to be a game creator for hentai games (Not just hentai thought but sex games it's on of my passion)
but there's content I want to create in games that might get me shut down on founding site
(But I saw them selling real illegal shit going through the loop holes and I don't understand that is okay?) (I fine anything with fiction that's kind of person I am)
... because I want to be a creator with no boundaries .. anyways that's enough rambling. If you a fund raise that has no limitations come to fictional hentai content let me know.
Actually, I not sure I can post on itcho even with anime characters I think main characters who are monsters can go around that hole.. not sure mhhh.
To be honest they are some problems with Ravager to enough places to explore, I hope they add more characters like (anime princesses that I kidnapped and among other characters)..
more kinks I would like breast milk and nipple plowing.
Wait did they game said all characters are eighteen in the beginning? I forget because Draja is questionable look young characters to be honest I don't when it comes to fictional character; I don't dwell that deep and you are playing as a dragon so would people care?
I am sorry rambling sir I will try the game eventually and see if still like the game.
I feel you on that, and I do have some answers for you. I'm basically brand new to making these types of games as well. Had to teach myself to use Ren'Py and Ai Shoujo, the game that I made all the characters in. And I discovered you can make some really high quality stuff this way. HoneySelect 2 and Ai Shoujo are great for more realistic characters, and Koikatsu Party is for the more anime, more cartoony looking ones. Look up the BetterRepack versions of the game and you can download fully modded versions of these games that get mod updates fairly often.
As for where to release/where to get support, if your game has questionable content, your best platform for support is probably SubscribeStar. They care a LOT less than Patreon does about the game content. As for where to release, if your stuff is REALLY off the rails, LewdCorner has a section for games that were banned from F95Zone where your game might find a good home. That banned section is pretty popular on LC.
And I think a lot of creators have to SAY that their characters are 18+ to avoid trouble with the platforms. Some games, like Daddy's Little Girls, skirt this issue by letting the PLAYER enter the characters' names, ages, and relations, and having the defaults set to at least 18. That way, if something changes, it's on the player, not the dev.
And don't ever worry about rambling lol I love when people are passionate about games. Makes me want to work harder on mine.
Hands down one of the best H-games I've ever played. So refreshing to play a protag that I actually like, finally I don't have to play as a creepy pseudo-predatory horndog.....i can play as a kind pro-consent horndog!
Thank you so much! That was exactly my goal when I wrote Aurum. I wanted him to be different from the typical H-game MC. They tend to be dicks and treat people like shit. Aurum is kind and emotionally intelligent. Just as interested in a girl's mind and heart as her body, and I'm glad that's showing through. Thank you for your kind words!
just started the game (0.1.5 with bug fix) and the game crashes when I try to open the character book (still in the prologue, after I got the notification "Gillie’s Gallery Unlocked!" and the menu got available).
Renpy throws the error "NameError: name 'gillie_met' is not defined" and that's true: I poked a little bit in your code and you set "met" variables but only persistent ones (e.g. '$ persistent.gillie_met = True' in 00Prologue.rpy::341) but the char book scripts checks for game specific variables (e.g. 'if gillie_met:' in character_book.rpy::110).
imo you should set _both_ variables (persistent.gillie_met = True and gillie_met = True; same for all the other _met) - the first one for the main gallery, the second one to track progress within one game)
edited to add:
and initialise them, a set of
default gillie_met = False
default whoever_met = False
...
at the beginning of a new game
PS did you change the variable name from UL_<name>_met to <name>_met in one of the releases? there's a block of defaults for the first set in gamevar.rpy, never used in the scripts
okay, I tried it.
1) added the whole block of "default <name>_met = False" in gamevars
2) every time you set persistent.<name>_met = True I added <name>_met = True
3) started a new game.
-> not crashing anymore when opening the char book and chars the MC met are available
ah wait, it seems the character book isn't in use anymore, but you forgot to switch it off in the prologue :)
it's only available between 00Prologue.rpy::345 (show screen nav_screen) and ::378 (hide screen nav_screen).
and the first thing I did was click on it :D
I'm currently in chapter 2 and noticed by chance that the upper left corner gives access to a phone.
opening the first messages screen throws the error "Could not find font u'Abel-Regular.ttf'", but after adding the font to the game directory one can only read "This is first message from aoibheann", looks more like some kind of dev experiment?
and changing the background image gives the error 'jade_wallpaper2 not found' (but hey, no exception ;))
You guessed it! These are two experimental features I was testing and forgot to hide the screens on lol. The character book will likely be dropped but the phone system is done and should be included in the next build. Good eye!
Any news for the next version??will it be released by next month or is it going to take more time??excited for the next update
I'm aiming for June for the next build since the game will turn 1 year old by then, but I don't know if I can make it because this next build is packed with a ton of content and extra features, such as optional scenes and a new phone system I'm trying to learn how to use. People told me the days were a little light on content, so I'm trying to pack more events and scenes into each day. What might end up happening is an early release of 2 or 3 days' worth of content in May or June, and the rest of the week hopefully a month or two after. I've been having a LOT of ideas lately, and some of them conflict, so choosing which path to take with the main story has been really tough, and that's slowed down the production quite a bit. But I'm scripting and scripting away, and you'll have it in your hands eventually. :)
Android version???
There's an unofficial Android port on the F95Zone page. I plan to start making official versions starting next build.
Just wanted to say that I very much enjoyed the game, and that I cannot wait for the next version. This game has tons of potential that I'm very convinced that you will let shine in the next update. Also, I saw the news of your unfortunate accident, I am glad that you're well! Skal!
Thank you for your kind words!
Of course, if you'd like any assistance, let me know! I'm currently writing a couple books, and attempting my luck on my own V.N.
This was handled by the patch file that is shown when you enter the Downloads area here on Itch. Download the patch and have the new file overwrite the old files. Or, you can hit Ignore and the scene will continue. I accidentally left in an old variable. Skip the variable and the scene continues as normal.
Glad to help!
but the patch archive does not include the script for chapter 5, in it the crash is triggered as of the undefined variable. I'm confused :)
Wait, really? Do you still get the error with the bugfix patch installed?
yes, the bug with the missing variable is triggered in '05 Chapter 5.rpy' around line 780
"
if abh1skip: # <--- crash boom bang
scene black
else:
scene abh30 with fade
"this should be replaced with
"
scene abh30 with fade
"
the bugfix archive only includes screens.rpy but not the offending script
Android version?
There is an unofficial Android port on F95zone.com. I have no way to test Android ports, so I haven't been making them. However, due to the high volume of requests, I'm going to try one with the next build.
World class,nice and neat game,High-five victorseven, please complete game, don't abandon this heavenly project"world crossing acedemy".,and please milk more update faster.
Ok, please.... Android version is not on site,add to download option.you have my deepest gratitude.love u
Thank you so much! Updates take a really long time because I'm the only one working on the project, but I promise you it will not be abandoned! Glad you like it and thank you for your kind words!
I will be trying for an android version on the next update. I can't test android versions, so there may be bugs. Also, there is an unofficial android port on F95Zone. Search for World's Crossing Academy there and you should find it.
Thank you again!
I see you used the ruined church from darks souls that connects to fire link shire and the gargoyles , when your with Gillie, nice
Funny story about that, I'm not a DS player, so I didn't recognize it lol. When the first person who noticed it told me, I panicked, thinking I had to reshoot that whole scene. Then I learned that companies don't typically go after Ren'Py creators and I was able to unclench and keep working lol
little goblin girls in VN will have a special place with me <3
I'm glad you like them! They're kinda my favorites lol
I just started playing this game yesterday and I've only gotten up to day five but it's been a really amazing experience so far. I'm pretty sure that I've played over 20 VN's this year alone but this one is definitely a cut above the rest. The writing is amazing and the animation quality is beautiful. The art is stunning and the game runs smoothly. This is definitely the best non big name company visual novel I've played since Katawa Shoujo. I hope you keep up the good work and I'm able to fix my PC soon so I can switch from the mod APK to the PC version for the full experience. Thanks for making this.
Thank you so much for the glowing praise! I hope to keep making content that you enjoy in the coming months/years!
Amazing game! i cant wait for more but i have to :p!
Thank you so much! Highly recommend you join the Discord. We got some extra goodies in there :)
thank you i will for sure do that! By the way whats your release schedule like?
There's no schedule yet as I don't have sufficient Patreon backing to be able to dedicate time to the project. I'm working on it when I can. I'm aiming for a new week to come out every 3 to 4 months if I can do so. As I get better and better at things, I'm hoping to improve the rate at which I can get these updates out. I'm smoothing out my process and figuring out how to optimize my workflow. Eventually, I hope to make enough with this that I don't have to rely on a traditional job, which means I'd be working on this nearly full-time.
One can hope. Until then, I'll get updates out as soon as I can! Thank you so much for your interest!
Ahh thank you for the full explanation and i understand your situation! I hope your game will get alot of more interest i love it akd ive never seen dryads and goblins being done so good! I will absolutly support your patreon!
Thank you! The Dryad characters are actually from my original series The Riftkey Chronicles. Here's Wither's original art. Sadly, I don't have her showing up in the series until around Book 7 or so.
Saarya is also featured in the series, but I never had full body art done of her. The series uses Dryads as a main race, as their language is where magic comes from. Fun fact, the Dryad language in the game is the same as the Dryad language in the book, and if you know it, you can actually translate it to English.
I have 2 books available on Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/author/milestigard
Or, you can read the first one and part of the second for free at https://www.wattpad.com/story/230767824-dryad%27s-wrath-the-riftkey-chronicles-b...
So if you enjoy my writing and how Dryads are done, here's more of it :)
Awesome game and I like in the later chapters that you placed in more choices you're awesome keep it up 👌🏼
Thank you! I'm an author, so I'm still getting used to writing in choices and whatnot instead of just straight up telling a story. I appreciate your feedback!
Love the game
Thank you so much!
Hi, just downloaded the game and received this error:
-------------------------------------------------------
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.
While running game code:
File "game/gallery.rpy", line 4, in script
$ persistent.playername = playername
File "game/gallery.rpy", line 4, in script
$ persistent.playername = playername
File "game/gallery.rpy", line 4, in <module>
$ persistent.playername = playername
NameError: name 'playername' is not defined
-------------------------------------------------
After opening the file and changing the line
$ persistent.playername = playername
to
$ persistent.playername = "playername"
it is ok
for me too
Seems to work fine for me. Did you try to open the Gallery before you started the game and set the character's name? Because you have to set the character's name before you can access the Gallery screen.
In the beginning of the game. You have to actually start the game before you can use the Gallery. And there's no point in opening the Gallery if you haven't started the game because nothing is unlocked yet. So be sure to hit the Start button at the main menu. The first screen asks what you want to call yourself. Type in a name, or leave it blank to make it the default name, "Aurum."
If there are any further problems, let me know, and I'll see if a fix is needed!
Okay I found it. It was a gallery conflict. Uploading a hotfix ASAP.
Thanks
Thank you for telling me about it, and sorry for the frustration!
Fixed! Please redownload the game!

In the gallery itself, with the exception of the Cecilia scene, each unlocked scene had "Image 'xxx_idle' not found".
Thank you! I have a hotfix coming for the Aoibheann issue; I forgot to comment out the Skip section when I took out the H-scene warnings. For the second one, I've submitted it to the guy who did the gallery for me; I'm not cool enough to code a gallery lol. It'll be dealt with as fast as possible!
Fixed! Please redownload the game with the new files!
does this game data save between each update or no if not should i wait till the 1.5 build is public
Yup! Just extract it as a separate game and run it; from what I understand, it does pick up your save file. If you have trouble, lemme know, and I can show you how to port your save files over!
That being said, the new build hits public in 6.5 hours, so... it's not a long wait!
I tried to play the free one, however this error happened. Is it on my end or the files?
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/11e3U9isLFmuouWmX-ULTM9rAV8WXOsuv/view?usp=shari...
Thankfully, this build will be taken down within the week, and Chapter 5 will be the public version starting on 11/26. Let me know if the Drive version still gives you issues.
Came for the porn, survived the multiple heart attacks, and stayed for the plot. Consider me hooked.
Thank you so much! Second update is due out within a month, if I can stop having setbacks lol. Stay tuned!
Wait this game has jumpscares?
SPOILERS BELOW! DON'T READ IF YOU DON'T WANT BIG SPOILERS!
.
.

.
.
Yes, there is a spirit who is trying to warn you of... certain things. I believe there are a total of... 4 or 5 "jumpscares," and they're all in the bathroom, right after you wash your face, all the same screen, the one above. So when you see the MC's hands washing his face, you can take off your headphones real quick and avoid the jumpscare. The only reason they're jumpscares is because she doesn't really know any other way to contact you besides via your mirror, and I wanted to add some tension to the scene.
They're easy to avoid if you don't like jumpscares.
Hey bro, great Game!
Any plans un bringin this Masterpiece to Android?
My Ren'Py absolutely does have the capability of making an Android port, but the resolution of the images may be an issue. There's an unofficial Android port on the F95zone forums under the same name if you wanna try it and see how it goes!
Also thank you for the compliment!
Thats great bro, i was playing the PC ver but gonna try the Android port
Can't wait for the next update!
Did you seriously use the Dark Souls 1 gargoyle bell tower as a setting..... I love it keep up the work.
Okay so funny story
I'm not a Souls player. So I had no idea what that was from. I just saw "Abandoned Cathedral" in my Maps list and went "ooh."
Is there NTR in game?
No NTR. No plans to add it, either, as I personally do not enjoy it and would not enjoy writing it.
I gotta say after playing chpters 1-4 I'm so totally hooked on this and I'm downright enjoying this game. You're doing a great job so far. The atmosphere you give certain scenes I love it and god the characters are just so loveable(excluding cecilia). I can't wait to see this games future progression.
Best of luck to you!
Thank you so much! I have a very small content update containing the next 2 days of the story and a whole bunch of quality of life changes already out to patrons, and coming to the public on the 19th!
Is it coming to steam?
Honestly? This is my first game, and I know nothing about publishing on Steam. For now, I'm just gonna keep it here on Itch. As I learn more about game development, I may consider Steam at a later date. For now, there are no plans to release on Steam.
No problem. I'll check it out here.
I enjoyed the game. Patiently waiting for more content.
Thank you and stay tuned! I'll be posting some information soon!
Looking forward to the next update.
It's already in the planning phase!
This is a great game so far. I'm not even to the parts of real sex yet. I'm enthralled by the story and its twists on the characters' backgrounds. Nice! Keep it going!
Thank you very much for the kind words!
I've never been so impressed by an initial release. I'll be backing this on Patreon as soon as I'm out of my financial tough spot because I'm eager to see more.
Thank you so much! I hope your tough spot doesn't last long; I know what that's like and I don't wish that on anyone.
Thank you for the kind words and motivation!
