⭐v1a Patch Released!


A big maintenance patch to fix some of the immediate issues that the game had after the jam release and add features that I didn't have quite enough time to complete before the deadline. There are 2 new lewd events and they are no longer presented as cutscenes, which was a compromise I had to make to get the game working on time. The party will now split up after the second time a rival is encountered and cleared. Gwynn gets taken if you have worked together to finish scouting, and Piper gets taken if he scouted the rival without help. Neither gets taken if you finished scouting the rival using a spell or avoided the encounter.

Great job this update, the 2nd event of the 2nd rival with Piper taken was so hilariously sad I kept chuckling like a moron for a while XD

I'm glad that you liked it! I usually aim for a bit of humor in my events, and it's always reassuring to hear that I'm hitting the mark.
