Demons of the Hearth
Version 0.7.5 Update!
After a long battle, contending with lots of struggles, technical difficulties, and resting, we're finally here.
It's another main story update and oh boy has it been an endurance match. I can't apologize enough at this point for how much time these updates have been taking, so instead I'll once again thank you guys for sticking with me for this long. The patience and support means everything to me. I hope you like the update!
- 34k+ Words
- 300+ Images
- 5 Main Events
- Something a little different.
- Finley and Lilac's chats have been updated beyond Chapter 2. Lilac will have additional information to offer through the "Mastema" talk option.
- Finley and Lilac may now receive headpats while pursuing a relationship with them.
- Beatrice, Finley, Lilac, and Nyla's repeatable scenes have been updated with improved videos, sound effects and new scripts.
- A plethora of bugs and continuity errors fixed, thanks to everyone who contributed on Discord!
Don't have too much to say this time around, I'm pretty exhausted! But I highly encourage checking out the new repeatable scenes before getting caught up with the story. Beyond any bugs that I may have missed, there are still some prevailing issues this time around. Some tips might have broken again this time around, so please let me know!
I've been hoping to improve the sex scenes for a while now and hopefully this is a good start. You guys will have to tell me if the effort was worthwhile. Some of the older CG still hasn't been updated, but I'll be working to patch those up soon!
In addition, with all the changes made, I haven't gotten around to fixing up the discrepancies between the gallery and the rest of the game. At the moment, some of the older events will appear inaccurate in the gallery.
The image quality of the android version is also slowly getting worse in order to ensure it remains small enough to be installed. Still haven't figured out a solution for this one.
Saves in the middle of Chapter 2 may be broken in some cases, I would suggest being caught up before playing the update, loading a save during Chapter 3, or starting a new save at Chapter 2. Also, to prevent some problems, AzMod will only be available beyond Chapter 3.
Finally, the mute function has been removed for now since it was breaking the new videos. Go figure.
As always, let me know what you think! I'll be pulling for a lot of feedback in the next couple of weeks and I'd love to see more people on Discord!. Thanks again for stopping by!

Hi! I almost forgot to say, so I'm doing it before forgetting for good:
You're not the first to hit Android limits: I've seen at least 2 Itch.io games having the same issue, and I'm pleased to say they found a way to get around it.
The first solution involved using Joiplay, which I wouldn't recommend because it is a bit harder to run and since it is emulated it can present incompatibility or performance problems.
The second is far better, they managed to split the game in 2 files: an apk with the game code and a file that contains all the resources of the game. They even managed to require the resource file to be put in a Documents' sub-folder, thus avoiding file managers and permission issues.
As for how exactly it works, I cannot say much since I'm not developing on either RenPy or Andoid. I'm just reporting other's discoveries, I hope it will help a bit (feel free to ask which games I'm talking about, I don't want to make unwanted advertising).
That second solution sounds promising, if a little daunting. But I'd love to know what games implemented it since I'll have to bite the bullet sooner or later.
(For safety, all links are on Itch.io)
So first there was Lucky Paradox. The author, Stawer, got the solution from one of his Discord's user in response to Joiplay not working very good, before getting simplified without file manager:
New Android Build for Lucky Paradox | Android Master Guide for Lucky Paradox
Then Zimon, author of Champion of Realms, heard about this, and found the complete method by himself (but didn't explained it publicly), then also simplified it:
Android Version Apk + Addons | Android Simplifications
That is almost all info I have as of now. It might need a bit of online search, or trying to contact one or another.
Thanks again for the pointers! I'll spend some time poking around and see if I can get in on this.
You're welcome
One of my all time favs. Glad to see an update but it was worth the wait. Can't wait to see how the story progresses!
Nice, more content. And scenes are very smooth, it's nice. Thanks for the info. Take good care of yourself and I hope the stress is alleviated now that you've put out the update. Take care of yourself :)
This update was pretty good, just wondering are you planning on adding repeatable scenes with pavi since shes temporarily living with the mc?
Although it's not animated, she's currently got one repeatable scene if you've accepted her request in the past, it's a bit out of the way to find. But I do plan on adding one more repeatable scene before Pavi is let out into the wild.

Thanks for waiting!
