This is version 0.2, which includes almost all of the content intended to fill out the game's first area. If you're coming from v0.1, that means new characters, features, H-scenes, secrets, enemies, and more!
The current versions ends before crossing the river into the next area. That will be included in the next version.
If you want a detailed breakdown of what's been added, check the patch notes from the start menu. Or if that isn't working, the "patchnote.txt" file in the game's folder.
!! Important !! - If you want to transfer a save from v0.1:
1. Move/Copy the "save" folder from the "www" folder in v0.1 to the "www" folder in v0.2.
2. If you acquired some of the weapons in v0.1, they'll be messed up due to some changes on the backend. Interact the with lamp on the first floor of Crane's house to activate a fix for this.
3. You'll also be set to the highest difficulty mode by default. If you want to change your difficulty setting, check the book on the first floor of Crane's house.

If there are any issues with the Linux or Mac versions please let me know as I have no way of verifying if they are working correctly.
Edit Regarding This: I recently learned that RPGMaker MV games do not work on modern Mac software. I'm sorry about that. I'll be removing the Mac download going forward.

Really good game so far! I've played all the content so far. The combat is good, and I like the variety of accessories and weapons. I really like the vibe and setting of the game and can't wait for more content! This game deserves way more attention, keep cooking brother👏👏
Thank you so much! Honestly even the amount of attention it's gotten so far has been pretty surreal. Hoping it can continue to grow.
Hey, why do the King's Remains show up in the Princess's shop even though you cant do anything with them? I know they are usable in the Brothel, but I am also curious about the basement because of that too. Will either of those be addressed in future updates?
Also, awesome job with all the sprite work and animations. It looks amazing! I will say that the Princess's scene felt a bit less fluid than the others though. I also enjoyed all the new characters, I can't wait for the next update!
Hey, thanks for playing!
The whole Brothel/King's Remains thing will be expanded as the game gets updated. Princess sells them so players have a repeatable source of them to unlock future scenes there, among other reasons.
Also yeah, I'd say visually Princess' scene was the one I was actually unsatisfied with. I feel like I struggle to make non-animated sex scenes dynamic or impactful. I think in the future I'd like to re-draw that one or bump it up to a full animation maybe.
Im a little stuck at the clocktower brothel, the library, and how to cross the river, if you even can. is there/will there be a walkthrough/guide? Or even like a quest book in the game? since half the battle is also remembering what you are doing at times.
Oh, and also a gallery viewable from the main menu?
Hey there. Sorry, I should have included a note in game that the river is where this version ends off for now. The way to cross it and the area past it will be included next time. There's also some extra stuff in the library/brothel that will be added in the future.
I would definitely like to add an accessible gallery soon, especially as more scenes get added. Not sure about a quest journal or guide, but I'll consider it.
This is where I would put my mossy key if I had one.
I liked the game. The girls were cute. I met the princess but did not find enough flowers to get the sword. The street light guy outside the tent killed me. I played the game for quite a while. The combat feels a bit shallow. I never had a real strategy. I like the atmosphere and love the art. I am looking forward to seeing what comes next.
looks cool so far
Dow/will this have any futa/trans options?
I don't have any plans for it at the moment.
