It will be a thing, but to be clear I don't intend for the player character to be running around Killing demons while pregnant.

For the player character it probably won't be possible until the end of the game.

However I was planning for it to happen to one other character soon, and now due to a volunteer who has written a few scenes so far, there will be a couple more pregnancy possibilities. (Still not the player character though).
Yea I gathered as much. Happy there will at least be that. Either way, always good to see consistent devs working on projects, even if we can't have a preggo mc running around lol

im on here looking for clues as to wether the game is worth a damn but everyones just talking about the damn tags
If you're looking for pure smut you might be happy at the beginning.

But my focus is more on the story, so if you like stuff with lore and story then I hope you'll give it a try.

This is pretty neat. I haven't implemented keyboard controls because I thought I'd need to go back and edit every button. I'll see about adding this to the game.

Thanks.

Regarding your broken save file, I think everything from version 0.41 and beyond should work. But if it's older than 0.45 ish, there's been so much that's changed I'd actually recommend starting over.

Lol yea, you dont need to do that, i know its headache, you can implement it to your game if you want, even make your own custom key interface instead of (number).

as for the save file, i dont know which version is at, imma just cruising through the game and refreshing my memory about the story.

so there really isn't any need for you to be like that.
Like what? :sneaky::coffee:

I'm so glad i'm not the only one who gets how ridiculous this is. :ROFLMAO::coffee:

If there to be pregnancy.. i'd say we need to set up some kinda maternity leave thing where the mc will be taking a pause from adventuring until birth at least and just sit tight knit socks or something..
Then there's also post-birth part to think about, if we really want a realistic experience the kid will need to be raised as well not only be born, etc etc.. Maybe they could even grow up and join mc's party or work elsewhere.. lots of options.
It could be fun.. IF done properly. :whistle::coffee:

Realistic? So it's ok to suspend reality for some kinks, but not others? I'm fine with whatever the dev decides to move in direction, but let's not get confused about where to draw a line on what is realistic or a boundary when it comes to a kink infested porn game about succubus. It's hardly without any precedence for a porn game to have exactly an mc running around popping out demon babies to further a cause. Just because you don't care for it doesn't mean others should feel the same way. You know what is unrealistic and adverse to a healthy life? Running around having sex with everyone we see without avoiding std's, babies and jail time. That's why these games are so great at enacting safe fantasies for all kinks without the worry for real life consequences. The same logic can be applied to having fantasies about pregnancies and not having to deal with any of it when you shut a game down. It's not rocket science. I don't judge peoples kinks, why must others?

Too much ai! Me want hand drawn. :sick:
Same.

Some of it is hand-drawn though, but I use AI to go over my hand drawn sections often, or I redraw sections of AI and clean them up in Photoshop (without AI).

I am currently looking for an artist for our next game but so far myself and another dev have made plans with 6 artists now and every single one has canceled or just disappeared.

But if I were to replace every single image in this game with an artists art, I'm pretty confident I'd never be able to afford them.

I'm so glad i'm not the only one who gets how ridiculous this is. :ROFLMAO::coffee:
Tbh I have difficulty with this too.

After my wife's pregnancy I gotta admit it's a fetish I don't understand but I tried to find ways to add it for players who want it.
But I agree it feels ridiculous for a pregnant person to be running around, doing acrobatic flips and stuff during battle.

I know some games get away with it, but it IS against Patreon TOS to have kids in your game.

In addition to that, I also don't think I want to add child raising to the game. I'm exhausted enough doing it at home. :')

I've debated on various methods of how to do this. I think I've ultimately decided that various births will happen in the very end of the game.

You will probably find out about it earlier in the game, but I'm not planning anything to be born until the end.

I understand what you're saying, there are definitely unrealistic "magical" lines I've crossed in this game so far. But while other games do it and I have no problem with the kink, it is difficult for me to imagine and write a scene like that.

Nothing against anyone's kinks but I'm not doing it mainly because of Patreon TOS and also because I like to skirt the lines of realism to a certain extent in my stories, (not including various mistakes I've made).

So is 'mind control' if i remember right, shitreon is rather annoying like that, in all sorts of ways. That's why you run Substar and other money pipes as backup. One throws you out no prob, you got 100 other pipes through which money can be funneled to you.
That's why i always recommend to devs to open up as many money pipes as they can. Don't keep all eggs in one basket. :sneaky::coffee:

Up to you, i'm not particularly for or against kid-systems in games.
Could be fun tho, i wouldn't mind going dragon hunting or something with a bunch of my kids as sidekicks lmao.
You have to admit the idea is very amusing. :ROFLMAO::coffee:

Like I said, I wasn't trying to suggest to you to do anything you don't want or feel comfortable building in your own game. It's your game! I was solely making the point to someone else that their entire argument against something they personally saw as ridiculous was a hypocritical argument. They made it a point to shut down people's comments and I made it a point to correct them. I was fine leaving it at the original correction, but it just kind of kept going. No disrespect intended.

I have 285 patrons on patreon (down from 387 :() and on subscribestar the most I've ever had was 4.

I'm not even allowed to withdraw my income I've made so far unless I have 5 on Subscribestar, so I haven't even been able to withdraw anything I've made in the past 1.5 years. Seems it's not nearly as popular.

Itch.io brings me more than subscribestar, though it's still pretty low there.

The mind control part is kinda weird though since that's like 80% of the games on patreon. I feel like it's a rule they have there so that they can enforce it against very specific types.

Like I said, I wasn't trying to suggest to you to do anything you don't want or feel comfortable building in your own game.
I know you weren't, I was only trying to provide a response even though you weren't directing your comment toward me.

Comparing the code of the game in the download to the version on your site, is the online version a slightly more updated version that fixes a bug where after getting the mountain essence after killing the dryad, the game loops? If so, the bugfixed version should be uploaded somewhere, even if it's the HTML file in a zip

if you somehow manages to get funds and starts commissioning artists, what would happen to those of us who actually prefers AI art?
I understand that a lot of people seems to hate AI art with a passion but there are also people like myself who find AI art much nicer to look at than a good chunk of hand drawn art; with the obvious exceptions of art done by some of the biggest artists on artstation and pixiv but they are SO big that realistically there's little to no chance they'd work on something like this. So, that leaves us with the scenario where you commission artists that delivers worse art compared to AI on top of the usual problems with dealing with commission work that being delays, miscommunication and ofc cancelling and disappearing. I know this is like something that would happen in the future but as an AI art 'enthusiast' and someone who really enjoys the game, I need to know the path you'd take with the game when the time comes where you have to choose between two types of art and in turn, two target audiences.

The code in the download version should be the same as the code on my website.

There was a bug where the game looped involving the Dryad but that was fixed in this version. Or should have been at least.

But if you're bringing it up then I'm probably wrong, I'll check my download version later.

In the meantime, here's the fix I released for patrons back on April 15th.

The Android version should definitely already include the fix as I deleted the older version after fixing it.

I'd make it optional. I put a lot of work into the art in the game so far, even if I did lean heavily on AI I still drew and manually edited many of the images myself, I'd be hesitant to just throw it all away.

Additionally if I did replace the AI art with an artist, there'd be a lot less art because
1. the amount of time it would take an artist to redo every single image in my game and
2. it comes back to money.

That said, I'm looking for an artist for another game I'm currently working on, not Demon Gods.
I've come to realize that Demon Gods is no longer in the realm of possibility to replace with an artist.

So, that leaves us with the scenario where you commission artists that delivers worse art compared to AI on top of the usual problems with dealing with commission work that being delays, miscommunication etc.
Well, I'm a big fan of Retro anime art like this -
1714989495054.png

So ideally if I do manage to find an artist it should be a lot easier to work on. I wouldn't mind continuing to do backgrounds with AI though, or there are a lot of stock backgrounds made specifically for anime visual novels that I can grab for free too.

But that's my aim for the next game, and like you said there are problems with commissions.

I've gone through 6 artists now, and if you've been with me since the beginning, I've even paid one of them and received nothing in return.

The others all canceled on me because they were busy or one of them who I wanted to work with more than anyone else (non-anime artist) on an erotic horror lost her love for art.

My wife's friend hasn't canceled on me but he also hasn't updated me and the other dev on any progress (though he still uses my discord channel to advertise his art...) so I've moved on until he has something substantial to show and put that game completely on hold.

The other game we're working on we are using AI art as placeholders until we get an artist. It'll look pretty bad at first though because I'm not taking the time to edit the art much more than making backgrounds transparent. (I would, but editing art for DG takes too much time for me to focus on something that's only a placeholder).


tl;dr: Don't worry. I won't be replacing the art in DG with an artist. I simply can't afford it and the quality of DG would suffer as a result if I did. Not because I'd hire a bad artist, but because there's no artist that would be able to work quickly enough to redo all of the art in my game in a sufficient amount of time, and there's no way I could afford to pay them for that much art either.

For future games, it'll probably be a mix. If I can find anyone reliable who can do art in my preferred style.

Can confirm that this matches the one on your site with the fix in mnight2-final which isn't present in the one in the OP

Well, it existed for less time than shitreon did. And also has its share of problems, just like shitreon.
Just different flavor of problems, which is probably what makes some people jumpy. :whistle::coffee:
But as you can see it's perfectly viable just like shitreon, just has fewer payment options if i remember right and of course, far less popular than shitreon.
I feel like it's a rule they have there so that they can enforce it against very specific types.
Shitreon invents nonsense rules so that it can have an excuse to kick anyone out if they become too inconvenient yes.
That's why they're so unpredictable and its best to have backups especially when dealing with them.
But then again, it's best to have a backup plan when dealing with absolutely anything on this planet, imo. :sneaky::coffee:
