Ah, it's finally time to launch mental countdown. Or to mark day 4 weeks from today in persona manner. Either way, good news like these made my day. Or maybe even a week.
Well... we (aka Lust Demon) are kinda causing Ress more issues then helping him so I dont know if he would be pleased to find out we are in fact a Demon.
Pleasure, power, help in fooling/convincing the others and probably a chance to figure out how to disrupt Red Eyes' magic in exchange for being unable to keep dong in pants, yeah, sounds like a bad deal. I mean, in the future, you will probably be able to screw everything for Ress (and for yourself), but helping or not is still a choice and most players will probably help Ress (cuz he's sexy and it's just common sense) on their first playthrough.
Well it is true that the demons powers can be very helpful and in the future save him in lots of tough situations but so far we are reponsible for:
-Making him fall Unconcious during a Important Mission harming his and his teams reputation
-Made him overly Horny and played with his desires or his friends desires
-Are probably responsible for why those thugs wanted to kidnap him in the first place
-Are probably going to cause some sort of panic or distrust if anyone learns Ress has a literal demon inside him he can not control or keep in check that can also manipulate people around him. For Ress and this whole Order are kinda... very Anti-Demons for Good Reasons.
So he might be less enthusiastic at the start then we may hope... we will probably be able to convince him though after some effort
We've been forcefully summoned into fitting vessel, i don't think we're responsible for unconsciousness and kidnapping, that is entirely Red Eyes' fault imho. We and Ress both are just unlucky.
Horny, yes, but we basically are just digging out buried feelings. Manipulative, but not really harmful in this particular case.
I'd love to say "we just gotta avoid overinfusing Ress and it's gonna be fine", but you got a point there. Although, we are really different from Red demons, so we may or may not have some time to convince Ress that we're helpful and he can't get rid of us anyway.
Not gonna be surprised if Ress will accept us after something like "best hot time in his life" with partner of our choice. XD
(P.S.: i'm probably overdefending my silly powerwolf joke, but ah well)
How are all the men so charming? I wanna see more of Sam now, he's very handsome and reminds me of a certain other character I like. I also do like stoic characters in particular. I wasn't expecting to get into Ludwig either but he sure is adorable, and I can't say the mentions of his big belly didn't get to me after a while.
This update is a nice reason to enjoy Ress' priceless expressions once more. Not that i need a reason to do it, but it's still nice. I'd even say, expressions easily making Ress one of the best wolfs in the whole furry community IMHO.
This will definitely be one of my favorite VNs, I hope we can choose to give in to demonic nature for an "evil" route. I usually like to go the most selfish and evil path possible.
Hey! Thank you! I'm very glad you've enjoyed it so far! :D
I have a dream (and Patreon goal) of someday working with a composer to create some slightly more directed music for the game. For now, the great music you hear in it comes from packs of music I have bought from various sources. Those are made specifically for game developers to use in projects. Some of it I have tweaked myself a little bit, though, so it's hard to just reference.
If I get a bunch more requests like this maybe at some point I'll put them together somewhere with proper crediting or something, but for now it's gonna have to be just in the game!
yo! I just remembered something and wanted to ask:
[Spoilers]
At the start, when we're introduced to Lust, was that by any chance inspired by Death Note? It really made me think of when we are introduced to the shinigami world in ep1 (specially the "dark" atmosphere).
I *have* watched Death Note, but it was so many years ago that I legit didn't remember there was something like that there! So I'd say, it's not exactly inspired, it's made like that for its own reasons, but it's a somewhat common look, yeah. :)
I'll probably set up something silly like a curious cat on Twitter or something to sometimes answer this type of small question. Either that, or maybe I'll encourage joining the community Discord server for the VN that might be coming soon... ;)
So you can choose to help or hind the protag or influence him and those around him and yet you also say this is a more linear game. So how does the system work exactly? is there narrative branching paths or is this more a kinetic novel?
On god this visual novel is chef's kiss, the amount of detail and effort went into this is amazing. My dude I'm looking at top tier high quality content! 🔥💪
Best thing about this game is its music and sound effects, usually they are just nice, but in this game they are really good. I also really like this emotional interference idea, but unfortunately, nothing can be said about story itself yet, since it's basically just the beginning. If i dislike something though, it's those wobbling letters, i had to reboot game about 10 times to get through them on android.
I wasn't aware of the problem with the wobbling letters but I think I can understand it. I think the way ren'py handles some animations can be taxing on devices with limited processing power like phones.
I will look into this and consider implementing something to get around it in order to prevent this problem from happening! I have some ideas.
If anyone else playing on Android is going through similar issues with this or other animations, I would like to know about it and I'll work to improve it in future updates!
That's all we, fellow android users, can ask for, i guess. Thank you for your hard work!
PS: Oh, another thing. Maybe you should add rating link for android users? Because mobile itch.io game page doesn't have "rate game" button and users rarely care to switch to pc version.
YES, thank you! i kinda forgor to write a comment about it, but they were so much problem for me too! it took like 10 minutes to pass each scene/page they were in
I've tried out a LOT of furry vns and I've gotta say, I can already tell this is about to become one of my favorites. I love the characters, the art, the story so far, everything has pulled me in and I really can't wait for the next update!
I liked the new sort of choice mechanic you implemented as well, its a refreshing take and I'm finding it very interesting!
I also found it so funny, we literally made the MC gay xD
Sleth. Sleth, my friend. Explain to me two things.
1) Why is your writing style so much better than mine...?
And
2) ...
WHY IN THE NAME OF DEMONIC POSSESSION JUTSU DOES EVERYONE ENJOY SEEING ME BECOME A STUTTERING MESS? It's just like, sex scene. Okay, this is— boom. Lust takes over. It becomes more raunchy. Then boom! My monochromatic stuttering syndrome kicks in. Why do you guys insist on doing this to me?
For now there is only a closed discord that is tied to Patreon support for discussions and all the Patreon reward updates!
I've been getting this request a few times and I'm doing my best to consider when is the best time to open it to the public, but I don't have anything set yet. I'll make sure to announce it everywhere when it happens, though!
An incredibly polished experience in terms of art assets, soundtrack and UI, with very refreshing gameplay ideas, a cool setting and very likable characters. I had a lot of fun with it.
Admittedly, being an ass man myself, I can't say I've gotten into the sexual stuff as much as I would like, yet the writing ends up making a lot of it at least somewhat appealing for me, specially with the more passionate/intimate things, the kinkier stuff (olfactophilia and the like) and the alternative for more extreme scenes, which are also quite refreshing for the genre and usually fun to read.
Definitely looking forward to the next release, and keep up the good work!
hello, the game is cute! I generally prefer more visual genres but you gave me that minimum of visualization to turn on my imagination while I read! Can I make a suggestion? I do not know if in the future you will insert images and then a Gallery with images every sexual act or interaction (love) between the characters, but if in case you do not make these images and leave everything like this, I can tell you that I would like in some way (the one you prefer) know with which characters I can have interactions, otherwise I play and replay the game thinking that I can use the powers on the bear or on my captain! I hope I was clear! until now there are two hot scenes and 4 interactions and the characters are 5, right? : D
A gallery that allows the player to review memories they've seen and easily replay some key scenes from it is high on my to-do list as I think that's an essential part of making the experience smoother. It should be coming in one of the next updates!
I'll keep in mind how to give the player some knowledge of what they can and can't do. While I believe that exploring the game and its options to find everything is part of the fun, I understand and share that sentiment as well! I promise I'll do my best to judge what'll be the best course of action in that regard. :) I do have some possible ideas on how to approach it.
1) What happened to the tutorial section? I played it before but it's been a while and I didn't expect the tutorial to disappear...
2) What does the claw icon near the top right do? Seems to be a toggle of some sort, but it doesn't seem to do anything and toggles off automatically when you advance.
1) Each tutorial only appears once! Once it's been fully seen it doesn't appear again. Putting in an option to either toggle tutorials off right off the bat or be able to see them again is on my to-do list.
2) The icon up there is Auto! The claw with puppet strings toggles Auto on and off, which auto-advances the text without you having to manually advance. When manually advancing, it gets turned off.
Oh, huh. I definitely saw the tutorial multiple times on the first run, but maybe that's because I was reloading saves. I started a new game this time, but I guess it remembered that I had done the tutorial last year :P.

Well 4 times 7 equals 28 and its been 28 days since the update announcement, where that update 🔫
Apologies! 4 weeks is a loose estimate for around a month!
It's already scheduled to come out on June 5th, so this incoming Monday! Just a little more patience, almost there!
Ah, it's finally time to launch mental countdown. Or to mark day 4 weeks from today in persona manner. Either way, good news like these made my day. Or maybe even a week.
Can you please add cg to your sex scenes? The game is good but it would be even better if it had some nice erotic artwork.
It's in the pipeline to add them, but it also depends on both budget for art and artist availability. We'll get there, though!
Nice! Thx for answering
Red Eyes: "Demons come at light and they bring the end!"
Ress: "Demons are a wolf's best friend."
Well... we (aka Lust Demon) are kinda causing Ress more issues then helping him so I dont know if he would be pleased to find out we are in fact a Demon.

Will we be able to pursue the commander? He is one sexy wolf.
Ludwig's turn on next update tho. But yes, the commander is pretty sexy. SPOILERS:

Damn, Captain is pretty susceptible to lust shenanigans if those meddling soldiers didn't interfere with private bath time
This will definitely be one of my favorite VNs, I hope we can choose to give in to demonic nature for an "evil" route. I usually like to go the most selfish and evil path possible.
keep up the incredible work, sleth and blain! will be eagerly keeping an eye on demons within and seeing how it blossoms
Ngl went in thinking it'd be a fun vn but not much else, holy dam have you proven me wrong this is def a fav lol
Great Art, Great Writing, Great Music
Can't wait till the next update in a couple days lol ^w^
(also where did the music come from? It's really good and kinda wanna put it in a playlist lmao)
Hey! Thank you! I'm very glad you've enjoyed it so far! :D

At the start, when we're introduced to Lust, was that by any chance inspired by Death Note? It really made me think of when we are introduced to the shinigami world in ep1 (specially the "dark" atmosphere).
It's just common look for "voids", "limbos" or "lifeless worlds", i think.
This, mostly!
I *have* watched Death Note, but it was so many years ago that I legit didn't remember there was something like that there! So I'd say, it's not exactly inspired, it's made like that for its own reasons, but it's a somewhat common look, yeah. :)

We're still a bit too early in the story to properly branch. I liked to call Updates 1 and 2 the 'introduction', pretty much.
Update 3 is coming soon to the public and it starts with some of it. I have plans for even more down the line using a few other things. :)
On god this visual novel is chef's kiss, the amount of detail and effort went into this is amazing. My dude I'm looking at top tier high quality content! 🔥💪
Will the captain be one of the ones to have sex with? If so, is there kissing with him?
Great update as usual I'm really liking this VN 😎👍🏽. The Tiger is my favorite character so far.
I originally had issues picking up where i left off but i realized that all i had to do was roll back then go forward...
yo, sorry to bother, but do you have any 'date' planned for the public release? Just curious :P
The current plan is to always release a new Update to the public 4 weeks after the Patreon release, so Patreon is usually about an Update ahead. :)
thaaaaanks!
Nice game so far, love to see how the mechanics develop.
Corruption. My favorite.
Wonder if the Captain's gonna be corrupted in the future?
I honestly hope so
Ah, Ludwig's turn on next update. But there are hints on the captain which makes me giddy
I don't know whether to be excited or worried.
Leaning more towards excited though.
Best thing about this game is its music and sound effects, usually they are just nice, but in this game they are really good. I also really like this emotional interference idea, but unfortunately, nothing can be said about story itself yet, since it's basically just the beginning.

thanks for hearing the feedback :)
Oh wow. Seems like i had it easy. 10 mins for one page… sounds torturous.
it was... but worth it!
Totally worth it :D
Thank you for reporting as well!
Update 3 is pretty much done and shipping on Patreon this week already, but I have a possible solution in mind that I'll try to code in by Update 4!
yoooo cool new page art!
I like. I like. I now shall follow
I've tried out a LOT of furry vns and I've gotta say, I can already tell this is about to become one of my favorites. I love the characters, the art, the story so far, everything has pulled me in and I really can't wait for the next update!

Yusss android version
Thx now i can play it whenever i want :)
A bit too wordy, but the concept is good. Not sure if the plot actually branches, or just pretends to.
An incredibly polished experience in terms of art assets, soundtrack and UI, with very refreshing gameplay ideas, a cool setting and very likable characters. I had a lot of fun with it.
Admittedly, being an ass man myself, I can't say I've gotten into the sexual stuff as much as I would like, yet the writing ends up making a lot of it at least somewhat appealing for me, specially with the more passionate/intimate things, the kinkier stuff (olfactophilia and the like) and the alternative for more extreme scenes, which are also quite refreshing for the genre and usually fun to read.
Definitely looking forward to the next release, and keep up the good work!
Is there a place where I can find the ost list?
Sorry, not yet! I might do this at some point when the list gets a little bigger!
hello, the game is cute! I generally prefer more visual genres but you gave me that minimum of visualization to turn on my imagination while I read! Can I make a suggestion?

We had a poll on Patreon on whether people wanted to see more of him or of a certain tiger first, and our bear won 55% to 45%, so... ;)
I have two questions:
1) What happened to the tutorial section? I played it before but it's been a while and I didn't expect the tutorial to disappear...
2) What does the claw icon near the top right do? Seems to be a toggle of some sort, but it doesn't seem to do anything and toggles off automatically when you advance.
I can answer those :)
1) Each tutorial only appears once! Once it's been fully seen it doesn't appear again. Putting in an option to either toggle tutorials off right off the bat or be able to see them again is on my to-do list.

This is so good!
Nice, I cant wait for the next update. really enjoying this game
I downloaded the new update but it's still ends at the same time (after being with the tiger) did this happened with anyone?
Hmm, strange! Which version are you playing? PC, Mac or Android? As far as I've tested, it's working as it should
it's the pc version, but I erased everything and downloaded again so now it's working, maybe it was something on my pc that went wrong
I'm glad! :)
Good shit as always!
Damn, theres only one update and another patreon goal for sleth is almost reached 0.o
i give in its time i become a patreon
