So, does Silas have an official nobility title (e.g. Viscount of Eamia) or is that strictly unimportant to his character?

(+2)

Silas does not have a title himself, however, his father is a lord so should Silas become head of the household then he would inherit his father's lordship.  Silas does however have older siblings and they would be first in line to inherit the title should anything happen to their father. 

(+2)

Okay; thanks.

(+1)

And now im paranoid those of us dating him will have to fight gold diggers and navigate political intrigue... which might be entertaining if we can insult nobles without them realizing using their own methods

(+4)

still here waiting for the day

(+8)

Can you make a prediction when the next update come out?

(+9)

Unfortunately I cannot. I have been debating just using the old assets and releasing an update, but I'm not sure yet.

(+11)(-1)

That would be extra work since they're going away right after. We waited so far, might as well wait some more for the fully updated art.

(+8)(-1)

Which at this pace, could literally take another year or more . So rather then nothing it would be nice to have a little bit to bridge the time. Something that can get updated later with the new assets.

Regardless of what he chooses to do, its nice that Matt still takes the time to answer questions here and to keep us in the loop. 

(+4)(-2)

"Which at this pace, could literally take another year or more" lol, what? There is no pace. There's a hiatus untill the new assets are done and then we'll get a big update followed by a normal schedule. No need for such exaggeration.

(+7)

Silas art alone took months... you just have to do the maths. 

The real problem is that people tend to forget very fast those vn that dont have an update every now and then. I think it would be better to use the old art for the moment and when the time comes it's only about replacing some of the code and nothing more (something that can be done in a "Art update" alone)

I don't know, that's my opinion.

Happy new year to you all! Hopefully this one won't suck as much as the previous two.

sadly this fact is disproven lol

(+6)

Hello beautiful people of this great VN community of this wonderful game, I hope you had a good time this Christmas, and I hope that the developers have a well-deserved rest at this time.

Merry Christmas to all <3

(+2)

How are you doing with the next update?

Take good care and drink a lot of water

(+1)(-5)

I wouldn't expect any updates for atleast a few years.

Deleted 1 year ago
(+4)(-2)

Yes, still ongoing

(2 edits) (+2)

I think it would be nice to keep the current build as a side option for download. A legacy archive for the original art style.

(+3)

Any hints on who's currently getting their sprites redone?

(1 edit) (+4)(-1)

From as I know it Silas but it been hinted that they are working few other. we won't know until they post the logs. I am sure they would come out lovely, Just hope they don't change Qrom to much.... Belly beef rules ;///;

(2 edits) (+5)

i have just played this game for the first time and was really impressed. now coming back to this side i realize that i probably have to get used to that  all characters i just met will look different in the future.
its really kind of funny. xD
My Favorit so far is Qrom, even thought there wasnt much with him yet.
i really hope he doesnt change to much, its always nice to have at least one of the "Muscle and belly" type <3

(+8)

Thank you so much. I'm glad you enjoyed it and yes, all the characters will be changing to a new style, though I still hope and aim to keep them recognizable and not make too many drastic changes to their design. 

(+2)

Heh, I also enjoy this Vn. Only one char I love to much is Qrom as well, just like you quoted " Muscle and belly' Type xD. I like Silas snice he did save MC and few things.

(+9)

Just checking every vn to see if they have updated, even the ones that got updated a few days ago while eatin my popcorn

(+4)

lol, not yet, but eventually once all the assets are updated 😉 

(+1)

I remember in an earlier comment saying that you would post the comparisons of updated characters, so is Silas still the only one finished?

(+4)

Silas is still being worked on currently, getting some expressions and such currently. Once each character is finished I'll post some comparisons 😃 

Did you have to call me out like this?

just... follow all the vn creators on itch.io... all the news for updates and stuff will show up in your feed

(+1)

So I hate to sound naggy but are there any ideas when you'll be able to release a new build or has the change in artist throwing everything into chaos?

(+4)

Unfortunately, I don't have any specific dates or estimated dates for the next update release. I'm still working with the new artist on getting all the new art for all the the main characters. 

I will say it is highly unlikely that there will be any game update release before the end of the year.

(+1)

OK thanks for answering.

(+4)

I wonder who Wufrick is working on now?

Could be a new character or the current crew, excited for the update

(+4)

He's going to be redoing all of the main cast first before moving on to new characters :)

(+3)

Can we see the comparison of the old and new sprite side by side?

(+4)

Sure, once they're finished I'll post some comparisons :)

(+1)

Though it do make me wonder how much he going change Qrom.. My lord, his belly.... <333333333

(+2)

Sitting in a chair eating popcorn waiting for the new episode does anyone want popcorn? :3

Me!

Hehe ok I give you popcorn

thanks to you kind soul! *om nom nom nom nom*

Hehe you're welcome, now to keep waiting for a new update with the great and renewed chapter nwn

(+4)

I thank Wufrick for helping our game dev continue the vn. I like this vn so much so I thank them.

(+1)

Please don't take this the wrong way but, this VN is still alive right?

(+6)

Indeed, it is still alive. In fact, I just recently posted a new devlog with some info regarding the new artist and future plans. :)

(+4)

I downloaded this visual novel last night on a whim; I'm certainly glad I did! I honestly enjoyed every word I read and the story feels as though it is going to be extremely interesting. I hope you find an artist soon as I'm genuinely excited for more of this incredible experience! 

(+4)

Thank you so much! I hope to have some updates to give soon enough. 😄

(+3)

it’s no problem at all! As I said, I’m looking forward to more from this novel; I’m also excited to see such a responsive developer as many of the other games/novels I’ve viewed doesn’t get as much. You certainly have my vote of confidence and full support to see this thing through and my congratulations on being a fantastic person and developer!

(+3)

D'aww stop it, you'll make me blush lmao. 

I'm just super happy to have such a supportive group of players that are seriously interested in the game and are so involved and invested in it's development 😊

(+2)

ha ha ha! I mean every word of it and having a developer so interested in not only the project they’re working on but also community feedback is a refreshing change of pace. Your enthusiasm bleeds over into the community who are just as excited as you to see it through.

(+2)

What's the song from the main menu/who sings it? I'm absolutely entranced and I haven't even clicked 'Start' yet 😂

Hahaha the main menu theme is Know Us by Anica Stemper. 🙂

https://youtu.be/Ay5JYjqA2jQ

(+2)

Any news?

(+6)

I'm waiting on a response, but there should be news within the month.

(+2)

That's good to know! I'm excited about it! :) 

(+1)

when will the next update again?

i dont remember how this work but i really like this 

(+1)

Unfortunately, there is no official return date yet. The game is still on haitus while I work on getting new art assets to replace the old ones for the game and that is going to take quite a bit of time to get them all and implemented for the next update. 

(+2)

I hope you all the best, and this FVN deserves to get popular

Thank you so much :) <3

ubdates ?

(+7)

None so far unfortunately. Still looking for an artist. None of the ones that sent in applications were good fits and I've sent several messages to other furry artists and I'm still waiting on some responses. I did get a maybe from one so we'll see.

It is what it is. What about the story? Did you get to write a good chunk of it in advance during the hiatus?

(+3)

I've continued to work on the story while on hiatus as well as try to refine some of the UI. So, once the game comes back it should be a pretty big update (as long as I don't break anything in the code which is usually a 50/50 chance with me lol)

(+1)

Then let's flip that coin lol.

I like those odds! on another note I was wondering how far you plan to take the details of the for lack of a better word classes. Like will you go in depth of the magic, martial abilities, deities etc? 

While I likely won't include actual RPG elements like combat encounters, hp bars, mana bars, etc. I do plan to add some dialog elements that will be affected by magical ability, martial ability and I will also be going a bit into the pantheon of deities in the world. Most of the combat will be done through timed choices later on and depending on the players class and skills and performance, different options will be unlocked for many scenarios.

(+5)

Pls, I really want the second update now

(+4)

agghhh im missing this soo muchhhh, pain...

(1 edit) (+1)

Are all the charcters on the right side of this page the love interests or are there only three?

(+1)

All of them are love interests

Is there anywhere else I can listen to the opening music?

(+1)

The main menu theme is Know Us by Anica Stemper (if this is the opening music you're referring to 🙂)


That's the one! Thanks.

No problem :)

(1 edit) (+2)

Small(ish) nitpick but the directions to get back to the main hall from the administration area is incorrect.

The order to get there from the main hall is L-R-L-S-R-L. The "correct" order you currently have is R-L-R-S-L-R which is the above sequence but with the Lefts and Rights swapped. What it should be is R-L-S-R-L-R which is the first sequence with the Lefts and Rights swapped and *also reversed* since you are going backwards FROM admin TO the main hall.

Small thing but it took me a while to figure out the "correct" way back since the real answer was not right.

Small thing but it got me a bit lol

(+2)

Yea, thank you. It's been brought to my attention a few times now. I've fixed it going forward with the next build whenever that gets released, however for now both the correct and "correct" paths are listed in the WSF guide. However, playing through blindly will result in everyone getting lost unfortunately. While it does affect some dialog choices and points, it doesn't affect anything majorly with the current release so I won't be releasing a fix for just that issue since the game is on hiatus at the moment. I do appreciate you taking the time to inform me and for playing through :)

Cool. What is the WSF guide? I wouldn't mind going through a few more times to check everything out with a guide for it.

There were many questions on different choices and what they affect so I made a guide a little while back and published the link to it in the April Touchbase 🙂.

When I imput the correct order and still got lost, I thought it was part of the story lol.

(+2)

Yeah, me too LOL, I thought it had something to do with the magic stuff :V

Me encantó el juego, y realmente esperare por más, solo una pequeña cosa, y es que quisiera que se pudiera guardar al momento de tener que escoger las opciones, todo lo demás me encantó 

(+1)

I'm glad you've enjoyed it so far. Also, you should be able to save the game at any time, even during the choices by hitting escape or right clicking. The only exception to this (that I'm aware of) would be android since you can only bring up the save option via the quick menu which is dismissed on the choice screen.

(+4)

Hope everything is going alright for you!🐊

Ohohoho 

A familiar face (icon?) I see

I’m all over the place lmao

same here

Nsfw scenes?

(+1)

Eventually there will be. Though they are a long way off for now

(3 edits) (+4)(-4)

"Are beastman still hunted or treated like monsters?" 

"Most nobles and politicians would tell you no, that beastman have been welcomed into society and have equal rights with the other humanoid races."

"In truth, there are still many beastman who are persecuted and killed for spite and sport. There are even rumours that beastman hides are sold at a high price in the black markets."

"People still fear and hate us in many places, if only less openly."

Any similarities with real world homosexuality is not mere coincidence.

Is there a discord server?

(+1)

There is a discord server for patrons, but since I closed my Patreon for now, it's pretty much closed/inactive at the moment. Until the game is back to getting updates, I don't have plans to open a discord server for the public yet.

(+1)

Can someone please tell me how to get Aldric route? I got to the sleeping part twice and haven't seen Aldric once yet (@_@;)

(+1)

When you are on that ethereal plane before appearing in that new world you need to choose answers non related with love, feelings or relationships at all, and then you need to lie to Silas so he doesn't give you that ride.

Thank you so much because that's exactly the opposite of what I did :)

(1 edit)

Yeah, that's like exactly the opposite of what everyone did too, so Mattmalificum had to explain it in some old post.

(+3)

Hey Matt, how are you? Hope you haven't abandoned your game! We are still waiting for the update!

(+2)

In a post on twitter, on May 29th, the dev said the project is still being worked on. An update is coming, but there is no release date yet.

Thanks for the info.

(1 edit) (+4)

thx for all your work and keep it up!

I really enjoyed that brief story and hope that it gets developed till the end ;]]]

(+6)

The entire experience was amazing! Looking for the next updates!

(+4)

Can't wait until the next update!

(+2)

this is a great game so far i see nothing wrong and my fav so far is Qrom the dragonkin I don't know what it is about him I like he just seems like a lade back guy and I guess that's why I like him. But all in all this is a great game can't wait for the update
