So it's not often that I really write reviews however after having played everything in the current release I can't help but feel as though this definitely deserves one.
So let me say that not every erotic visual novel actually gets me to play the entire thing and experience the whole story. Sometimes it just doesn't attract me and I will just click through it to the horny stuff.
This game however, got me to play through everything; which made my gameplay go for about six hours maybe more? I didn't really keep a close eye.
Then onto the characters. First of all let me say every single girl in this game has something that makes her unique and awesome. They all have their own distinct personality and I won't spoil anything really but I absolutely love that you included a tomboy. We don't really see them very often, and Zelda is also perhaps my favorite character period. I just love her.
However to be completely honest I love every single one of the girls, they are all wonderful.
My only two complaints for this game, are as follows: 1) It's not fully released already, I need more. 2) That you don't spend more time with the other girls. A LOT of time is spent with Kindera and June, and it definitely is understandable story wise. However I do want to continue exploring and learning the other girls even more.
Same boat, I paid one time and have all chapters. I go to My library > Download (red square under the game tile) > I choose the version I want (Chapter 4).
Edit: To access My libraryyou can go to the far top right of this web page, clic on the down arrow, first link.
Just have to say that this is a great story!! Most games like this...well...you don't expect much, but when the new update dropped i was psyched just for the continuation of the story first and foremost!! Great job! Looking forward to more!
finished the latest update, and, well, GODDAMN! All of my previous laudation continues to apply. I get lost in the story, love and despise characters, and maintain a healthy bit of yearning.
When the protagonist gets with the romantic or close friend characters, I want you to take more time—slow role the camera view over the scene, across the bodies, and build up the romance. That’s all I could advise.
Don’t rush a damned thing! Keep up the great work, and we all will just be Patient.
I found it I just normally play on my laptop but download on my phone as im a trucker and have very limited Hotspot so tend to DL the pc version on my phone and transfer the folder over.
Can we get an alternative download site? I just paid 10 and I cant even try to download it without getting the megadrive app because I use firefox apparently
Who created the models/clothes or what program was used to create and pose them?
Side note: never, ever in a million years download jdownloader as it will not make you wait an unlawful amount of time to download mega links. It is an absolutely terrible application that shouldn't be installed under any circumstances.
So hilarious. A word of warning though, I was eating lunch and nearly choked when I recognised the number of the donation hotline for the animal shelter.
Thank you!!! I have been waiting for the next chapter. I think a few of us fans were worried. I am glad you are doing well and are continuing with your art.
Just an FYI, and I'm not really complaining so much as just giving you a heads-up, it's a little disheartening to pay $10 for a game then find out it's going to take 2 days to download because it's a >5GB file on MEGA. Would be very helpful if somewhere in your description you mentioned it's on MEGA and greater than the daily allowable limit for free users so we know not to get too excited about trying the game until the next day. lol Look forward to trying it tomorrow!
Well, it could also be posted on alternative websites to offer more choices.
PixelDrain has a free tier with 20GB file size limit, 20GB weekly download limit. But the download speed is great. UploadHaven seems good also, but I have not used it much. WeTransfer is nice but not adequate for long term storage. Iirc it delete the file after a week, but it as been a long time since I used it and could be different now.
There are more but on the top of my head those are the alternatives I remember.
It's fine. Like I said, it just meant I had to wait until the next day to start playing because I couldn't get it all in one download session. Looks really cool!
It's not my download speed. It's MEGA. They only allow 5gb download per day for free users. So when he uploads his game to MEGA, and it's greater than 5bg in size, then it takes free users more than one day to get it all. Understand now?
You got me hooked with chapter 1. I was wondering if the additional chapters have to be purchased individually or does Chapter 3 include Chapter 2? (And will chapter 4 include 2 & 3 when it comes out?)
Hey everyone, its' been super busy getting CH4 wrapped up. I'll be uploading the latest version this week as soon as wrap up the remaining bugs and spelling corrections reported.
Greetings, I just wanted to bring to your (DEV) attention that 0.1.2 version linux executables do not have execute permission and require a chmod +x. This might be a roadblock for some people not savvy about linux or permissions.
Hello snakecult, I think it is a solo project by digi_b.
I am guessing digi_b use windows with ntfs as the file system for the storage media.
In short, it can not be done.
I looked how to store linux (ext4) files properties on windows (ntfs) and as far as I know it can not be done. I tried transferring an executable .sh from linux to windows and back and the .sh was not executable anymore. It has something to do with ntfs not being POSIX compliant. I don't remember in details but in short, ntfs (windows) have no way to store linux file properties.
That being said, there are solutions around that. 1) Using a dedicated hdd/ssd with ext4 (or another compatible) file system can be used with WSL 2 (Windows Subsystem for Linux 2) or another program (for exemple Linux Reader) for compatibility. 2) Using a linux virtual machine, copy the files, change the file permissions, compress and then upload from the VM. 3) Maybe using a docker container (which require WSL 2) with a custom script to automate the properties changes, compression and upload.
Seeing the additional requirements I kind of feel bad asking digi_b for that. Maybe adding a link that explain how to make it executable by the user would be sufficient. I don't know.
P.S.: The comment is a bit long sorry, I did not know how much details to write.
edit: added "by the user" to make the sentence clearer.
Don’t rush it, but just so you know, many of us are seriously anticipating the next update…like ppl awaiting the next great series on Netflix. Just saying…
Wanted to say phenomenal work on the story, love the characters, tried out 0.1.2 and immediately grabbed 0.3.2, can't wait for more. (Also do you just overwrite and the saves remain compatible?)
Just finished chapter 3, and wowee... I am hyped for the next chapter. Blessed are we to have received such a high-quality experience. I love how realistic the characters feel, especially our MC. It's not always you get to have both in-depth love interests and a funny, likeable, chad MC. Phenomenal work digi_b. Thank you for your (and any other supporters') hard work!
Hi there and thanks. In the free version, there’s a save folder. You can move that from the free version to the /game/ directory. Alternatively you can also copy the contents from the update you downloaded and overwrite the free version.
Dude, I just finished chapter 1 and I am already hooked for life. When you feel down and demotivated from developing, please remember that you have a lifetime supporter here. This is really SOMETHING for years to come.
Not gonna lie, I am getting anxious waiting for the next update. Based on the development log, it will be here anytime soon - but here's hoping that something big will be here for Kinda!
When will the next update be , please ? I Absolutely love this particular story , especially how a certain someone got FUBARED ON TV ! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ! You go BOI !
So when you have it installed go to your downloads and hit extract. But if it didnt save on to your pc from Mega refresh the page and hit the green button on bottom right
really good stuff....my background is filmmaking but have my first visual novel game coming out soon on steam, our store page out in next few weeks based on ip of a feature film script of mine...this was beautiful, look forward to more..this , leap of faith, chasing sunsets and being a dik top of the game
Thank you for your compliments! And great to hear your VN is making its way to Steam. If you wouldn't mind, would you let me know the name so I may wishlist?
Dude I just have to ask... I've spotted that you model these girls after real life people. Cass is definitely Alexandra Daddario, Naomi gives me some Jennifer Conelly vibes, June looks a bit like Ana de Armas and Zelda's smiling face reminds me of Emilia Clarke. What about other girls?
Haha, Cassandra's base model is from Alexandra model with some tweaks. Everyone else isn't based on actresses. Although I have seen people say Naomi's revised model resembles Katrina Law. Another person said that the random render I did of Artemis, she sort of looks like Ana de Armas.

Hi, I paid 10$ for CH3 do I need to pay another $10 for CH4??!
Same boat, I paid one time and have all chapters.
I go to My library > Download (red square under the game tile) > I choose the version I want (Chapter 4).

Amazing...keep doing what you're doing. its working
Just have to say that this is a great story!! Most games like this...well...you don't expect much, but when the new update dropped i was psyched just for the continuation of the story first and foremost!! Great job! Looking forward to more!
Hello, I seem to have been charged twice for the purchase of the full version of your game. What would be the best way of resolving this?
Contact Itch.io?
Hey, when will you release the fourth chapter for Mac ?
finished the latest update, and, well, GODDAMN! All of my previous laudation continues to apply. I get lost in the story, love and despise characters, and maintain a healthy bit of yearning.

Is there a discord? And if not are the dataleaks just unlocked by playing through or are there items to click to unlock them?
should be through the game there should be a discord icon
I found it I just normally play on my laptop but download on my phone as im a trucker and have very limited Hotspot so tend to DL the pc version on my phone and transfer the folder over.
God damn! That is one of the best stories! Great game! I LOVE IT!
WTF? No Mac link? Linux but not Mac?
EDIT: Just read your post. Sucks that Mac can be so difficult. Steam is iffy for Mac users as well. I guess it is what it is.
Can we get an alternative download site? I just paid 10 and I cant even try to download it without getting the megadrive app because I use firefox apparently

Side note: never, ever in a million years download jdownloader as it will not make you wait an unlawful amount of time to download mega links. It is an absolutely terrible application that shouldn't be installed under any circumstances.
One of the best AVN out there. Thank you for your hard work!
So hilarious. A word of warning though, I was eating lunch and nearly choked when I recognised the number of the donation hotline for the animal shelter.
can some one tell me the costumes for chapter 4?
Not spoiling anything this early but... that chapter 4 cameo... epic!
I bought the game sometime ago and I'm very excited to play the new chapter, however, can you please also upload it somewhere that's not Mega
Yeah I had to pay another $5 for MEGA to download 10 gb files. Because 10 gb files download is not allowed for free account.
jdownloader...
Thank you!!! I have been waiting for the next chapter. I think a few of us fans were worried. I am glad you are doing well and are continuing with your art.
Really glad to see this project is not dead, keep up the great work

It's fine. Like I said, it just meant I had to wait until the next day to start playing because I couldn't get it all in one download session. Looks really cool!
Most people can download 5GB in like 10 minutes. Might want to take a look at your connection
It's not my download speed. It's MEGA. They only allow 5gb download per day for free users. So when he uploads his game to MEGA, and it's greater than 5bg in size, then it takes free users more than one day to get it all. Understand now?

I paid 10$ for chapter 1 and got all the others (2 and 3 at the moment) for free. Unless the price go up I think I will get the other chapters.
Thanks for the info.

Is this a harem or a single path type story?
no harem route confirmed on discord
Bro can you provide me that discord link
It's in the game's main menu iirc
thanks buddy (Artemis Discord link :- https://discord.com/invite/qnPexQUnEz )
Don’t rush it, but just so you know, many of us are seriously anticipating the next update…like ppl awaiting the next great series on Netflix. Just saying…

Oh and I forgot to say, the music is just *chef's kiss*. Awesome work by whoever produced the tracks for this game.
Hi there and thanks. In the free version, there’s a save folder. You can move that from the free version to the /game/ directory. Alternatively you can also copy the contents from the update you downloaded and overwrite the free version.
Let me know how it goes!
Dude, I just finished chapter 1 and I am already hooked for life. When you feel down and demotivated from developing, please remember that you have a lifetime supporter here. This is really SOMETHING for years to come.

One of the best VN i have ever played. Great story and amazing art, definitely worth the wait for updates.
I just bought this game for windows, and downloaded through mega, it is now saved as a file, how do i make it to where i can actually play the game?
So when you have it installed go to your downloads and hit extract. But if it didnt save on to your pc from Mega refresh the page and hit the green button on bottom right
android version?
I have to say, this is one of my favorites this year. I just finished playing the current release, and I can't wait until the next update.
when is next content update?
There is a small handful of scenes that remain. I am shooting for sometime in August at the latest.
Nice!
really good stuff....my background is filmmaking but have my first visual novel game coming out soon on steam, our store page out in next few weeks based on ip of a feature film script of mine...this was beautiful, look forward to more..this , leap of faith, chasing sunsets and being a dik top of the game
Thank you for your compliments! And great to hear your VN is making its way to Steam. If you wouldn't mind, would you let me know the name so I may wishlist?
sorry havent been here in a while.....Crown of Thorns is the name of my vn
I know right , more than an awesome set of stories , you can't get a better writer than this guy !!
Dude I just have to ask... I've spotted that you model these girls after real life people. Cass is definitely Alexandra Daddario, Naomi gives me some Jennifer Conelly vibes, June looks a bit like Ana de Armas and Zelda's smiling face reminds me of Emilia Clarke. What about other girls?
