Now that you mention it, I think I remember seeing the Noble icon in one of the references, that's such a cool addition.

And don't worry, no need to spoil anything, I'll eagerly wait and see what comes next!

okay so is the show me at the troupe camp where you meat sargon?
The show takes place on the west side in the evening. If you mean the peeping sex scene, you should visit the camp during the day, not at night, before the show.

UPD. But I see what you mean, so I put a more clear explanation under the spoiler.

Ah okay so the noncon is part of the stage play.

Welp that's something you don't see in modern theatrical shows.

Well, not only...

About modern theater. It's funny, I remember reading Lysistrata by Aristophanes and there the women discussed rape quite freely. And this is a comedy that's almost 2,500 years old.

In modern culture, especially the Western one, it's almost unthinkable. But, I tried to gently warn all potential players that sensitive topics would be raised in my game. I just can't imagine a truth-like primitive civilization where everyone is tolerant of each other.

In a way, one of the motives that drive me is to show a society that is quite different from the modern one. It's patriarchal, deeply intolerant, homophobic, and imbued with rigid social barriers. A bad place to live, but an interesting place for a story.

game looks unique but I honestly can't bring myself to download this game yet when I don't even know how the H-scenes will play out for games like these (since they are missing on the screenshot list) .. If no H action are even shown on the screen with images or animation rather everything just happening through texts & dialogue,, I fail to understand how it would even appeal to anybody.. My advice? Please include at least one H-scene among the list of screenshots for people like me to see & understand (IF there are actually any H-scene with image or animation, that is)

This is a text-based game. It works roughly like a book, only you, as the player, have choices. That is, the descriptions engage the most powerful video card known: your human brain.

So if you're expecting to find sex art or porn/hentai gifs here, just don't. I'm not an artist and all my "mighty" drawing skills can be judged by the game's logo. I did what I could to make the game not look like endless walls of text (although I personally love "pure" text games).

But that's all for now. Maybe someday, I'll be able to hire an artist. Although, to be honest, porn art isn't my priority. The game is, somewhat, experimental. Sex and sexuality of the protagonist are important here, but not the main element.

This was what I was saying seemed off... you can choose her race, name, abilities, her entire backstory... but not her sexual orientation.
There are reasons for that, the most important one having to do with the plot, not with my preferences, if anything. I don't want to go into it, or I'll have to spoilers or innuendos here.

In a way, the optional bisexuality is a compromise (because I wanted girl-girl scenes).

Are you the developer of this game? The game contains a lot of sexual tags as we can see above.. So getting back to my previous question and your response, I guess there are no H-scenes on screen in the game, huh..

Yes, I'm a dev. I probably need an appropriate tag, but I don't quite understand how to get it. Anyway, I'll get around to it.

There are sex scenes in the game, but they are textual. There are no porn pictures/videos/gifs, whatever. I don't know how else to explain it better.

What's the pregnancy content? And is it already in the game?
Yes, if you have had vaginal sex you may be pregnant. This is already in the game.

In general, you are definitely not pregnant at the beginning of the game, even if some Origins include sex affairs as part of their background.

But you can get pregnant as early as chapter 1. How do you know for sure? You don't. You, as the player, know no more than the heroine herself. And women, well, let's just say they don't know 100% whether or not they got pregnant after sex. Over time... the consequences will manifest themselves.

The pregnancy mechanism itself is one of literally two mechanisms in the game operating on random variables. I don't really like randomness in games. What's great for tabletop RPGs is often not so good for CRPGs. But in Inner Empire, given that there will sometimes be fairly long time gaps between chapters, it's the best option.

Don't want to name the exact chances. Let's just say that if you go through all the vaginal sex scenes in chapter 1, the chances of you being pregnant are very high.
