Made me care about people.
Made me hate people.
Made me care about people I hate.
Made me care about people I should hate.
Made me uncertain about my allies being enemies.
Made me uncertain about my enemies becoming allies.
Made me need to know more about everyone, regardless of whether I like or trust them or not.
Do not stop.
(Also upset me when I reached the end and several characters are no longer available to chat with, likely to return, but off limits at the cliffhanger. Annoyed about that, but in the end its proof I'm invested beyond surface level.)
EDIT: Note that all of these statements (apart from the annoyed part) are to be considered praise.
Welcome back Dev, we missed you :)
Great game, but more on to it is the soundtrack, that makes everything feel alive (aside for the basic H-scene soundtrack) this story has great potential, from the story writing to the world you've built.
However i'm surprised to see that even if the MC is a ""new person" he doesn't seem to form a persona, if anything he feels pretty robotic in the way he acts and talks, as i understood about him he chose this path in the end but how come he doesnt have a flair if not through the decisions we make or will make, through the story.
Also on a more personal sidenote, would love to see Hatsumi scenes or as a potential romanceable character! love character alot but as i said its more a personal hope. And it would be really dope to see some more on the Boss expanding his Troupe, getting close to them earning their loyalty.
All in all i can't wait to see more on how the story unfolds, as a matter of fact im also considering becoming a Patreon to support this, it's simply way to good! came here for the premise (aka you being a demon lord) stayed for the amazing story that showed and didn't expect!
Keep at it, part of me hopes that Hatsumi becomes a romanceable character but hey a fan can dream! , and lots of love bro!
Why is this porn game so well made, I expected this visual novel to just be a short kick starter scam so I was surprised to get hours worth of content. Thank you Konvel for going above and beyond with this masterpiece.
Stuck on having dinner with the sisters, what do I do, and it says get closer to varsha then talk to mira but I already have but nothing happens when I talk to mira
I already know what I'm going to do tonight after work :)
he just like me fr
omg its not abandoned this work is my favorite one in all time with overpower .thanks for rhis surprise
I kind of feel like Rick when Summer told him the Devil tried to kill himself!! I feel like joyously shouting "Holy Shit" a few times!!
Hands down one of my top ten favorite all time AVN's!! I had hoped it wasn't completely abandoned!! I know s**t happens, so thank you konvel!!
Our Lord and savior has delivered us PEAK a year later!
Can't help but keep checking on this every few weeks, hope the dev is still working on it :(
Today is the day
Man do I have something to tell you
Really hoping there's an update soon, game update or just one on patreon, this has been my favorite VN I've played and it'd suck for it to die.
Comment just so u get a notification. New update
Dev either disappeared to cook something high quality or . . . ran away with my last 10 bucks 😐
Updated
any news for a new update or is this game abandoned
Just a couple of days ago the dev made a Patreon post apologizing, giving some explanations, and saying he's aiming for the first week of June as the release date for the next update.
Whelp thT didn't happen
Yep, I shot him a reply on Patreon a week ago asking about it, and a couple of days ago he replied this:
"Thanks for checking in. The scenes I've been working on and compiling everything else into code have been taking a lot longer than I expected and leaving me feeling burnt, but I'll see this through."
Whenever i play the game it exits on its own
game was abandoned? It's been a while since I've seen a decent update?
it would appear it hasn't, the dev made a patreon post apologizing and giving some explanations
Hope there will be an update soon. I really miss this game.
from what I read from their patreon,they have some life things getting in the way,so expect it to be late.
thanks for the update, I appreciate it.
This was a great game favorite character is Astrid and her theme song is "I am now going to bark at you" by thquid and I accept no objections
is there ntr?
No NTR whatsoever.
dope
Why does Astrid make my blood boil so much? UGHH
is this game complete
No. I just finished playing what there is and more of Ch. 3 will be coming soon.
thanks
That's it, I'm gonna say it, Pavi best cinnamon roll.
Pavi is <3!!
This is one of the few games on this site that has a storyline. And this plot is really good ! I like the fact that the main character is not a warm fudge and does not succumb to every adversity he encounters. I also like the choice of music for the game, Peritune does a great job. I downloaded most of the tracks from his site that you used in the game :)
This site? ther ar games that doesnt have porn here too you know
I'm new to Konvel and I downright love this. The only downside being the constant clicking involved despite the nature of the game, I've gotten straight hooked on the story. Just one question, what's the trend on updates? I want to know approximately how long I need to be patient for before I check in for some more.
Glad you're enjoying the game! The past few months have been slower for me, but I'm trying to catch up these days and push an update out at least every two months. Wish me luck!
will there ever be stuff with zoga or elly???
Elly content is very probable in the future. Beyond my current plans for Zoga in the story, his fate will largely depend on player reception.
i love zoga and elly alot so i cant wait to see how they play out in your story
Si fuera todo en pov pero que se vea todo el cuerpo de las personajes hasta pagara para descargarmelo seria genial
Excuse me, I have a question. Can you change Lilac's skin color during repeatable scenes just like how you can do so during her first sex scene? Thanks
Not at the moment. Moving forward, I'll most likely have separate repeatable scenes for each form, rather than duplicates like in the prologue.
When the new update?
Sorry for the wait, you can expect a drop this week!
Cant wait
I'm hoping it doesn't get pushed back. 'Tis almost been a week, whatever shall I doth if thy shant be allowed to play due to thou postponing? (All jokes aside, if you do need extra time that is completely fine, I'm just an impatient fanboy and love your work, don't tell Konvel that though.)
Same! Ive been holding off to playing the last update till now. Fingers crossed we will get some form of upate soon.
Do have a recommendation for a harem game with diffrent kins such as inn another world?
waiting everyday +1(*꒦ິ⌓꒦ີ)
Getting an update is awesome. However I'm stuck. All the girls info either says I should talk to them "after taking care of other important matters", or it says "after having dinner with the Ilvog sisters". No matter where I go or who I talk to I can't seem to trigger the "dinner with the Ilvog sisters" event! What am I missing here?
It sounds like you're in Chapter 2, which can be bugged if you updated in the middle of it. Otherwise, make sure you can't progress further in the main story or through extra objectives.
For any others that had this issue I was able to go back to an older version with the save from the newer version and it worked
Hi, I'm stuck on the quest that requires me to have dinner with the Ilvog sisters, is this the end of the content for now?
It'll eventually happen just keep doing stuff for other characters you can figure out what to do for each of them by clicking their photo in the heart menu. It took forever for the event to trigger for me too.
Hi Konvel quick question is there any chance that there is a pregnancy sences?
Sorry, I don't have plans for pregnancy at the moment!
Ok thanks just wanted to know that all
Not sure if this is readily available information that I have yet to see but is there any way I could receive the names of the songs in the soundtrack, some actually sound pretty chill.
Any particular tracks in mind? All of the artists are in the credits, but I'll slip in a list of all the songs in the next patch.
Hey, would like to know Tabithas track, also Kalistas.
Btw game is amazing <3
The tracks are called Pina Colada and Stick, both by tobylane along with many other songs in the game.
Thank you so much! <333
does anyone else have an issue with updating on Android? I keep getting "Conflicts with an existing package" when running the Apk for the latest release while I'm on 0.6.52, Android 13.
Have you uninstalled the previous version before trying to install the new one? You'll most likely have to back up your saves as well, but if that's not feasible for some reason, you can also skip chapters if your saves get lost in the process.
Gotcha. I figured that might be the case, but wanted to ask to cover my bases.
:)
Honestly, I won't be too upset if I have to replay everything up till now; this is so far one of my favorite VNs I've played and not even for the lewd shit. I'm actually really impressed at the quality of writing and the diversity of characters and personalities that all stand out without being either too over the top or similar to each other!
Very well done!
Thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying it so far, there's more to come soon!
As someone who is just starting this game is there any consequence on focusing on the main story tasks first or focusing on character scenes first. I am trying to balance it out for the moment but just don't want to be locked out of something for doing it in the wrong order if that is even possible.
Look man for the advance I made in this game and I'm also new to this game. so i would recommend doing the girls side events as well, because sometimes to proceed in the main event, you have to have advanced in the female branch. and don't worry, you can always refuse to develop intimate relationships with them, in my case; I declined the Astrid route, "I hate her mind games!" and Tabitha.
with the exception of the prologue nothing can be locked, afaik. the sandbox only simulates complete freedom, there are choke points that have to be done to progress the story.
play as you like and have fun
I'm not quite sure where else to look for this but it appears as if I am stuck in some way. The main goal says to catch up with everyone's affairs and I am fairly certain I have done that? Everyone says I need to take care of important matters except Mira, who needs Varsha farther, and Tabby and Nyla, who need me to have dinner with the Ilvogs. Not really sure how to do that? If anyone can help me that would be great since I have been enjoying this quite a bit so far.
Feel free to pop into the Discord sometime, it's much easier to get to the bottom of these things there. You may have stumbled into a glitch but it's hard to say without more information.
This recent update was great and I already cant wait for the next one to see how things continue. I'm just hoping the next update doesn't take as long to come out as this one did. Take all the time you need though, there's no rush.
I loved what Beatrice did with her hair in her newest scene <3
