Did you go to the village and see the bandits there? The first time you go to the village after claiming the chapel, there’s bandits attacking that you fight off. After you defeat them, this part of the quest is meant to be fulfilled. You may just have to start over, I’ll try to see if there’s a bug on my end.
I do. Things are only in the planning stages right now, but I plan for Iris to be able to give birth to spirits that grant various passive benefits and will live in the throne realm. They’re not going to be like children or anything. Lore-wise they’re lesser demons that are taking the opportunity to incarnate into the material world and fuck around, and they won’t be humanoid or lewdable (though you’ll probably be able to breast feed them).
Like I said, this is still in the planning stages so is subject to change and there’s no ETA, but pregnancy and birth was always something I wanted to expand from what was in SS, I just don’t want to have babies actually be in the game.
Level 6 is the current max, huh? If the cap was higher, it'd be something to do. Farming exp is a classic rpg activity, after all. It'd be funny to play through the story at level 99 because the exp bar was always 100 exp for each level up..
There’s an update coming at the end of the month. I believe the cap will be raised to 11. Maximum level in the full game will be 50, but I expect a lower level than that to be sufficient to beat the game assuming you don’t go out of your way to fight.
I am capping the level on a per-update basis just because it makes it easier to balance. That said, I don’t want to artificially limit players forever, and stat upgrades per level are subject to significant diminishing returns past level 20 or so, so once we get to around level 20 as the cap, I’ll probably just set the cap to 50.
After the cap of 50, XP is converted to SP. Like in SS, there’ll be a shop you eventually unlock where you can trade SP, so that’ll be valuable even after you get all the skills you want.
I think it'd be cool if there were level milestones which have some special effect, such as level 20 rounding out Iris's skills, or level 50 unlocking some sort of powerful or fun ability that isn't particularly necessary for beating the game.
Welp. Thanks for your consideration~
I'll probably check back in for the update, have fun!
You don’t have to have sex with women at any point as long as you don’t list women as your preference when you create your character, and there’s a setting to prevent them showing up as customers for prostitution, just turn the “female customers” setting all the way down (to the left).
The game has asynchronous, indirect multiplayer, where you can create a servant in the throne realm and they will visit other players’ games where they can sell items for G and have sex for SP. It’s pretty barebones right now, but I plan to expand it a lot over time.
Unfortunately, when you label a game multiplayer on Itch, there’s no way to indicate it has indirect or async multiplayer, and you have to choose a number of players. I have thought about removing the multiplayer designation, but I think this is a problem with Itch’s classifications and the way I’ve classified my game is the most accurate way possible at this time.
If you go to the lake and bathe there, there’s a chance your clothes will get stolen, if you see this event and Meila has enough “corruption” she’ll stop caring about you trying to leave naked. In the update I plan to add more of these accidental nude events that will unlock public nudity, the one at the lake is just the only one available now.
You can play the online web versions with any mobile browser, or use an app called JoiPlay to play the offline browser version on Android. I don’t plan to create a bespoke Android version at this time.
Is it possible to have group sex in the free web version? If so how can you. Im up to going to the inn in ranbol to find gemma and have not progressed past there.
Group sex content isn’t in the game yet, I think it’s the only thing on the list that isn’t rn. I don’t have it planned for the next update (coming this month) either, but it is planned for relatively soon, probably by the time of the following update.
Ranbol also isn’t in the game yet, it’ll be in the update later this month, though. If you’ve done all three quests and been to the throne realm, that’s all that’s in the free version right now.
No no ofcourse not! I just keep forgetting to save and when i do i usually accidentally clear it, btw can you add more watersport content? Sorry if I'm asking for too much, i just like that kind of stuff
I have had lots of fun with this game. Loved a lot of the fighting features and combat along with the naughty bits. Also, just to note here, I am blind and use software to read the screen. Most of the features so far (and I am using the free version mind you,) seem to be accessible so far. So you can put blind-friendly on your list for this game if that matters to you :) Thanks for making this and cannot wait to see anything new that gets added later. Also, good luck with any further development for the game as well.
That’s interesting! You were able to deflect too? There are other defensive interactions coming that may make the game less blind-friendly, so I’ll hold off for now, but I can always add a game mode that removes or automates these interactions in some way to keep the game as accessible as possible.
I’m glad you enjoyed the game! An update is coming soon.
I have never been able to reflect actually. How do you do that? The only thing for fighting I was able to do was the spirit reflecting thing with the Inquisitor fight. I only got it to work the once though. I thought I just couldn't find the place to improve the skill for deflecting attacks with the dagger. How do you actually deflect attacks then? click the mouse at a certain spot or something? I generally just powered through things by leveling up a lot and then learning useful skills and what types of magic worked together. Also, wanted to ask: I finished the inquisitor fight with the grudge weapon but am not sure what to do next. I am currently level 6 and since I'm not sure where to go from here yet I am working on getting all the succubus skills done and getting all the outfits in the game. Was also wondering if the different outfits in the game do anything other than look different and sexy? Like give different stat boosts or anything say for maybe the witch outfit? I also bought the inquisitor design from the seamstress and cannot see it to wear it in the wardrobe at the chapel either. Is this intentional and to be used later or something?
You tap space or click anywhere to deflect, it’s a timed interaction where two circles overlap and you have to interact right when they overlap. You can do it from the start. It sounds like this part wasn’t blind friendly though, but I’m glad the spirit deflection worked.
In the alpha, after you defeat Gemma and the Inquisitor and see the throne realm, that’s pretty much everything.
The outfits are classed based on how revealing they are (normal, sexy, and lewd) but this doesn’t do anything for now, they’re purely cosmetic. The knight and inquisitor outfits are for your throne realm attendant. I believe they’re marked as such, but a lot of people make this mistake, so I may in the future split this off into a separate shop screen.
I will try to deflect attacks and see if it works with that. I have gotten some of the other interactions during battle (like the one with the spirit reflect) so maybe it's possible. Will try it out and let you know. I did the storyline for getting the lunar magic, the bit for killing the inquisitor and getting the sky magic, and then that's as far as I got. Am currently trying to unlock all the stuff under the journal right now. Guessing there's more to be added in the game later though for future updates? I saw a few achievements for things in the journal that implied there would be more so that's why I kept working at things in case there was. Cannot wait to see what the update to the game brings and good luck with developing and fixing any bugs or mistakes :)
It seems like you didn’t fight Gemma yet. If you visit the tavern a few times in the daytime an event will eventually proc starting the quest. There is a lot more planned but I think everything in the journal goals list should be possible to unlock, though a lot of the sex progression stuff is intended to be stuff you unlock over an entire playthrough, so I don’t necessarily recommend grinding it all out.
Version 0.0.8a Found out clicking on the HP/MP bar in combat doesn't accurately show the amount you have in the tooltip. I think it only shows the amount you had before the battle starts.
I assume this is on the web version? Unfortunately, each type of browser has different rules for how they manage local data, but if it’s gone, it’s probable gone for good. There is a “save to disk” feature that can allow you to create a portable save file that exists outside of browser storage, but that doesn’t help you get your old save file back.
Since I can’t help you get your file back, here’s some advice for the future. Safari in specific purges local storage roughly every seven days for some unknowable reason, so if you’re using that browser, it’s likely to delete your saved game regularly. On mobile browsers there are strict limits to the amount of space they will allocate to local storage, so they are also unreliable, and you’ll need to save to disk frequently. For most other desktop browsers, saves should persist for months or years, if not indefinitely, as long as you don’t delete them yourself. Various software utilities (anything that deletes “temporary files” or “cleans diskspace”) will likely delete your browser’s data, and of course if you delete your own browsing data in your browser settings, that will also clear the data, so be careful with that sort of thing. Still, it’s a good idea to save to disk if you aren’t planning to play the game for a while.
Sorry I can’t help more :(
Note: The server doesn’t really have that much info, so you can’t recover your save via your multiplayer ID. Only your servant’s info is tracked, and records for players that don’t log-in for a while are eventually removed. Of course, in normal circumstances, your record is re-added next time you log-in.
You don’t do alchemy in Hex; everything you’d use potions for in SS is (or will eventually be) done either via spells in exchange for MP, or be stuff you can just do once unlocked.
Okay, thanks. I liked tinkering with ingredients so much and since I can gather liquids in Hex I tought it might be possible. But well, though luck I guess. :)
Yes, I’m currently working on a huge update. I plan to sort of soft-relaunch the game when this update comes out, marking the end of the alpha stage of development.
No. I had some health issues so I had to take some time off from both games, but I just did a big SS update and I’m releasing a patron-exclusive update for this game in a few days.
Hex will get a massive update and I plan to sort of “relaunch” it soon.
Patrons will be getting a (relavitvely small) update on the next few weeks sometime. Currently I’m transitioning from an alpha stage of development to regular content development, which means I have to make more or less permanent decisions on a ton of things that will effect development for the years ahead, plus I want to rebrand and re-release the game, plus I want to add a ton of new content for the first regular release, so the next free edition release may still be a long while.
That said, patrons will get periodic small updates to the alpha as I work on the regular releases, and maybe some of those can come to the free edition if it’s taking too long.
Thanks! I’m glad you like SS too. That game is getting an update very soon.
I’m just changing the name of the game, some of the logos and the color scheme. Changes to game content as it is right now will be fairly minimal, though I do want to change the names and terms for some stuff related to the the game’s setting/lore. As it stands, I think saves from the alpha will probably carry over, so that’s how similar everything is planned to be.
I liked SS quite a lot, so I gave Hex a shot. It's very promising, with all those improved and polished mechanics, thanks for the awesome work. As the game is still in the early stages, I have some feedback:
What I really like: - The ideas of the combat system - Being able to skip known dialogues with holding down space - The interaction with Meila is hilarious! - The action hotkeys make for smooth playing. Once one has some hands free, if you know what I mean
Problems I encountered: - Asset loading in the browser version is really flaky. Character images load just fine, but backgrounds almost never show up and icons mostly just show the "missing image" hint. I felt no differenct between having CDN on or off. I tried Chromium as well as Firefox and LibreWolf. Yes, I have ad blocking and strict privacy settings enabled, the internet is barely usable (and quite unsafe) without those. - Fighting balance is a bit at odds. I can still defeat every enemy with the dagger only when I'm out of MP, but it's extremely tedious as it takes minutes of repeatedly using attack and deflect.
Personal taste (and personal taste only): - Why do the chars - especially the MC, especially when masturbating - look so young? In my oppinion the cuteness factor is too high, some visuals come close to child xxx - What happened to "hang around in the tavern, naked", one of my favourite p(ass)times? :D
For the asset loading issues, I’m working on improving this in a few different ways! I think expanding the CDN is probably the way to go, even though you said that didn’t seem to help much, I think the issue has to do with the number of simultaneous downloads, not the speed. Basically browsers limit how many downloads a single domain can have going at once, and I believe that’s the issue here, I just have too many files for the number of domains I am using (1 without the CDN, 2 with it). Anyway, I do think I can fix this, it’s just an infrastructure issue.
For balance, the biggest plan I have right now is to allow players to give up so you can just take the L when you run out of resources instead of having to try to use the dagger. I am open to other suggestions though. I like the focus on magic and MP, and there are abilities that can help you generate more MP, so I’m loathe to just buff the dagger, but that is an option.
For the art, we did, as a design goal, want to make the art cute. I don’t think the characters look that young aside from having big heads and eyes, but we are trying to be careful and make sure nothing looks too problematic. It’s possible to go back and touch up the existing art in the future to make sure that it doesn’t look like that. I think the masturbation pose is potentially just an issue of the perspective, but I’ll take your opinion into consideration and review all the art when I have time. Just to clarify though, all of the characters are instended to be adults, with Meila/Iris in particular meant to be in at least her mid-twenties.
You can go to the tavern nude, though it doesn’t do a whole lot yet. To unlock leaving the house naked, you can go bathe in the lake at the shore, eventually someone will snatch your clothes, after this event, if you also have enough experience with exhibitionism, Meila will let you leave the chapel naked!
So, this game is essentially single-player as in you play as a single character (from what I know I think you're the succubus controlling the body of the mage?). I don't think you're supposed to play this game with 2 players however there's a collaborative(? is that the right word) aspect of the game involving the servants in the throne room being able to be sent out to other players's respective throne rooms. If you do mean the mage and succubus separately I don't think you can play them separately due to the fact that currently the mage only gives feedback and acts kinda like a ... trophy wife? (I'm definitely using the wrong words here)
No, you cannot play 2 player as the Mage is not a separate player (If that's what you mean)
I loved the story of SS, so I'm trying Hex out, and so far am loving how the MC interacts with Meila. That being said, I've just spoken with Gemma and need to head to Ranbol inn, but I can't see how to get there? There isn't a travel option. Am I just of too low a level, being level 4, or has it yet to unlock?
Stuff like this is planned for the future, but Meila is the slow burn “corruption” part of the game, so I plan to take my time with it, starting with stuff like the masturbation scene with her, then I plan to add some interactions to the throne realm. Eventually you’ll be able to bring love interested to the throne realm and also have her interact with your servant.
Yes and no. The only part where “multiplayer” comes in is in throne realm, where the servant moves from this player to another. You can give the servant an item, which the servant will sell in the other player’s realm, bringing money back to you. The dev won’t add any chat or sth due to groomer and such. More detail on the development log, the oldest one
Is the throne realm available on browser version? I've reached the end where you must go to Ranbol and I can't find the throne realm. Is it download exclusive or patreon only?
The throne realm is accessible after reaching level 2 and completing the first quest. To trigger it for the first time, you need to sleep at the chapel after meeting these conditions.
I really like the game but am not certain if I'm going to follow it or contribute. I played a ton of Succubus Stories and found out last night while trying to start the last mission to fight Rachael that the ending chapter wasn't completed. I don't know if I'm just jaded from playing this genre so much and seeing a ton of games I loved end up being abandoned and unfinished or what but I don't really understand why dev would make a whole new game instead of just completing the previous one they made. Especially since it's so close to being done. Makes me leary to play anything from the dev. If the other game gets done I'll come back to this one since it's like an upgraded version of the other.
I’m not doing a perfect job of it, but I’m working on both games at the same time as I transition from SS to Hex. That SS is almost done is exactly the reason why I’m transitioning to Hex as my main project.
It could be a number of things, like the browser you’re using or your Internet connection. In general the game is rather hefty in terms of assets and loading each scene may take time. If assets appear to be missing, refreshing the page may help.

How to head to bandits' place?
I cannot proceed from ''Opposing Wills''.
Go to the forest, then to the shore from there.
How to head to forest ?
In the travel section, there are only village or chapel.
Maybe you need to go to the apothecary first? What does the journal say to do exactly?
Discounting and buying is the only thing Ican do, and
Journal says ''[Black Magic Arc: Opposing Wills] Defeat the bandits.''
Did you go to the village and see the bandits there? The first time you go to the village after claiming the chapel, there’s bandits attacking that you fight off. After you defeat them, this part of the quest is meant to be fulfilled. You may just have to start over, I’ll try to see if there’s a bug on my end.
I'm curious, do you plan on adding pregnancy like with Succubus Stories?
Do I indeed…
I do. Things are only in the planning stages right now, but I plan for Iris to be able to give birth to spirits that grant various passive benefits and will live in the throne realm. They’re not going to be like children or anything. Lore-wise they’re lesser demons that are taking the opportunity to incarnate into the material world and fuck around, and they won’t be humanoid or lewdable (though you’ll probably be able to breast feed them).
Like I said, this is still in the planning stages so is subject to change and there’s no ETA, but pregnancy and birth was always something I wanted to expand from what was in SS, I just don’t want to have babies actually be in the game.

Then again, probably not intended. meh.

Welp. Thanks for your consideration~
I'll probably check back in for the update, have fun!
:3
How do i get to ranbol?
It’s not in the game yet. There’s an update coming this month that will add Ranbol, among other things.
I don't understand how this game is a multiplayer game... where can I find people?
Is there a way to avoid girls having sex (frankly disgusting)?
You don’t have to have sex with women at any point as long as you don’t list women as your preference when you create your character, and there’s a setting to prevent them showing up as customers for prostitution, just turn the “female customers” setting all the way down (to the left).

Thank you for the explanation, have a nice day

In the update I plan to add more of these accidental nude events that will unlock public nudity, the one at the lake is just the only one available now.
When to add an Android installation package, I want to play it on my Android phone.(This is translated by a translator)
You can play the online web versions with any mobile browser, or use an app called JoiPlay to play the offline browser version on Android. I don’t plan to create a bespoke Android version at this time.
Is it possible to have group sex in the free web version? If so how can you. Im up to going to the inn in ranbol to find gemma and have not progressed past there.

Thank you very much for the response and the game. Really love it and cant wait for the next updates!
This game is amazing! I do keep accidentally losing my saves and data, but i do not mind playing it again! Is it gonna get more updates?
Yep! I have an update planned for this month. The game will be coming out of alpha and getting regular updates going forward.
Is your data loss due to anything the game is doing??
No no ofcourse not! I just keep forgetting to save and when i do i usually accidentally clear it, btw can you add more watersport content? Sorry if I'm asking for too much, i just like that kind of stuff
I don’t have a ton of ws stuff planned for the next update, but I am planning to add more to the game in the future.
Alr ty!
I have had lots of fun with this game. Loved a lot of the fighting features and combat along with the naughty bits. Also, just to note here, I am blind and use software to read the screen.

gonna follow this game too, hope it's a gem like succubus stories❤️
at the beach it says last chance to turn around but it is not there is not option to turn around and i wanted to since i was out of mana
Thank you. There is supposed to be an option to return to the forest. I’ll investigate and fix this.
Version 0.0.8a
Found out clicking on the HP/MP bar in combat doesn't accurately show the amount you have in the tooltip. I think it only shows the amount you had before the battle starts.
I like this
Hello. I have a quick Question. Where and how can I find the inn for the Quest?
Ranbol is not available yet in the game
Okay. Do you like have a date when it is going to come out
i lost my save, is there any way to recover it? I have my player id, but my saves are gone
I assume this is on the web version? Unfortunately, each type of browser has different rules for how they manage local data, but if it’s gone, it’s probable gone for good.

it was, dang, i knew about this but i just forgot to save, was just making sure there wasn't a way to recover, thank you!
I'm playing the free version and wonder if you can actually make your own potions like in "Succubus Stories"? Or is this not (yet?) possible?
You don’t do alchemy in Hex; everything you’d use potions for in SS is (or will eventually be) done either via spells in exchange for MP, or be stuff you can just do once unlocked.
Okay, thanks. I liked tinkering with ingredients so much and since I can gather liquids in Hex I tought it might be possible. But well, though luck I guess. :)
The “stuff” you gather is just used as is.
will the free version be getting more updates?
Yes, I’m currently working on a huge update. I plan to sort of soft-relaunch the game when this update comes out, marking the end of the alpha stage of development.
Android ?
You can play the web version or use JoiPlay and the offline browser version on Android.
Is this dead
No. I had some health issues so I had to take some time off from both games, but I just did a big SS update and I’m releasing a patron-exclusive update for this game in a few days.
Hex will get a massive update and I plan to sort of “relaunch” it soon.
:0 glad to see that. And hope you get better soon
I love the buddy-cop vibe between Iris and Melia
Ngl hearing polish in the tavern at 2:30 am kinda scared me
how do you go to ranbol
It’s not in the game yet.
oh.
Patrons will be getting a (relavitvely small) update on the next few weeks sometime. Currently I’m transitioning from an alpha stage of development to regular content development, which means I have to make more or less permanent decisions on a ton of things that will effect development for the years ahead, plus I want to rebrand and re-release the game, plus I want to add a ton of new content for the first regular release, so the next free edition release may still be a long while.
That said, patrons will get periodic small updates to the alpha as I work on the regular releases, and maybe some of those can come to the free edition if it’s taking too long.
Thanks! I’m glad you like SS too. That game is getting an update very soon.
I’m just changing the name of the game, some of the logos and the color scheme. Changes to game content as it is right now will be fairly minimal, though I do want to change the names and terms for some stuff related to the the game’s setting/lore. As it stands, I think saves from the alpha will probably carry over, so that’s how similar everything is planned to be.
I liked SS quite a lot, so I gave Hex a shot. It's very promising, with all those improved and polished mechanics, thanks for the awesome work. As the game is still in the early stages, I have some feedback:
What I really like:
- The ideas of the combat system
- Being able to skip known dialogues with holding down space
- The interaction with Meila is hilarious!
- The action hotkeys make for smooth playing. Once one has some hands free, if you know what I mean
Problems I encountered:
- Asset loading in the browser version is really flaky. Character images load just fine, but backgrounds almost never show up and icons mostly just show the "missing image" hint. I felt no differenct between having CDN on or off. I tried Chromium as well as Firefox and LibreWolf. Yes, I have ad blocking and strict privacy settings enabled, the internet is barely usable (and quite unsafe) without those.
- Fighting balance is a bit at odds. I can still defeat every enemy with the dagger only when I'm out of MP, but it's extremely tedious as it takes minutes of repeatedly using attack and deflect.
Personal taste (and personal taste only):
- Why do the chars - especially the MC, especially when masturbating - look so young? In my oppinion the cuteness factor is too high, some visuals come close to child xxx
- What happened to "hang around in the tavern, naked", one of my favourite p(ass)times? :D
Thank you for your detailed feedback!
For the asset loading issues, I’m working on improving this in a few different ways! I think expanding the CDN is probably the way to go, even though you said that didn’t seem to help much, I think the issue has to do with the number of simultaneous downloads, not the speed. Basically browsers limit how many downloads a single domain can have going at once, and I believe that’s the issue here, I just have too many files for the number of domains I am using (1 without the CDN, 2 with it). Anyway, I do think I can fix this, it’s just an infrastructure issue.
For balance, the biggest plan I have right now is to allow players to give up so you can just take the L when you run out of resources instead of having to try to use the dagger. I am open to other suggestions though. I like the focus on magic and MP, and there are abilities that can help you generate more MP, so I’m loathe to just buff the dagger, but that is an option.
For the art, we did, as a design goal, want to make the art cute. I don’t think the characters look that young aside from having big heads and eyes, but we are trying to be careful and make sure nothing looks too problematic. It’s possible to go back and touch up the existing art in the future to make sure that it doesn’t look like that. I think the masturbation pose is potentially just an issue of the perspective, but I’ll take your opinion into consideration and review all the art when I have time. Just to clarify though, all of the characters are instended to be adults, with Meila/Iris in particular meant to be in at least her mid-twenties.
You can go to the tavern nude, though it doesn’t do a whole lot yet. To unlock leaving the house naked, you can go bathe in the lake at the shore, eventually someone will snatch your clothes, after this event, if you also have enough experience with exhibitionism, Meila will let you leave the chapel naked!
Thanks again for all the feedback!
There's nothing wrong with having cute art. The people who automatically think of kids in adult art are the weird ones.
is there any..."defeat" hentai scenes? I'm curious...
nah
alright- =P
How do I unlock nudist and nude beach?
I did it recently it is at the bandit camp it might happen after what roy asks you to help with but yeah that's it just bathe in the lake
umm.......how to play 2players??
help me
So, this game is essentially single-player as in you play as a single character (from what I know I think you're the succubus controlling the body of the mage?). I don't think you're supposed to play this game with 2 players however there's a collaborative(? is that the right word) aspect of the game involving the servants in the throne room being able to be sent out to other players's respective throne rooms. If you do mean the mage and succubus separately I don't think you can play them separately due to the fact that currently the mage only gives feedback and acts kinda like a ... trophy wife? (I'm definitely using the wrong words here)
No, you cannot play 2 player as the Mage is not a separate player
(If that's what you mean)
super hot I love the artstyle. Will there be any selfcest content planned for Iris and Melia?
Yeah, a spoiler.
I loved the story of SS, so I'm trying Hex out, and so far am loving how the MC interacts with Meila. That being said, I've just spoken with Gemma and need to head to Ranbol inn, but I can't see how to get there? There isn't a travel option.
Am I just of too low a level, being level 4, or has it yet to unlock?
Nah thats the end of this verson
Ah, alright, thanks. Time to wait and look forward to updates on either game.
ss from what i seen is done and hes moving to hex full time
Really love this game and i wanted to ask where can i find the music for this game.
Wait can we make meila like suck a cock or fuck someone or something it would be so cool
Stuff like this is planned for the future, but Meila is the slow burn “corruption” part of the game, so I plan to take my time with it, starting with stuff like the masturbation scene with her, then I plan to add some interactions to the throne realm. Eventually you’ll be able to bring love interested to the throne realm and also have her interact with your servant.
HELL YEAAAAAAAA but like when would that update come?
Excited for Meila corruption!
Please make this for android
Is it actually multiplayer?
Yes and no. The only part where “multiplayer” comes in is in throne realm, where the servant moves from this player to another. You can give the servant an item, which the servant will sell in the other player’s realm, bringing money back to you. The dev won’t add any chat or sth due to groomer and such. More detail on the development log, the oldest one
I can’t “defeat the bandit” (in the prolounge)
Is the throne realm available on browser version? I've reached the end where you must go to Ranbol and I can't find the throne realm. Is it download exclusive or patreon only?
The throne realm is accessible after reaching level 2 and completing the first quest. To trigger it for the first time, you need to sleep at the chapel after meeting these conditions.
Oh alright, i've never slept in the game so i guess that's why, thanks!
sleep
I really like the game but am not certain if I'm going to follow it or contribute. I played a ton of Succubus Stories and found out last night while trying to start the last mission to fight Rachael that the ending chapter wasn't completed. I don't know if I'm just jaded from playing this genre so much and seeing a ton of games I loved end up being abandoned and unfinished or what but I don't really understand why dev would make a whole new game instead of just completing the previous one they made. Especially since it's so close to being done. Makes me leary to play anything from the dev. If the other game gets done I'll come back to this one since it's like an upgraded version of the other.
I’m not doing a perfect job of it, but I’m working on both games at the same time as I transition from SS to Hex. That SS is almost done is exactly the reason why I’m transitioning to Hex as my main project.
The discord inv didn't work

Why cant I see the scences on browerser mode?
It could be a number of things, like the browser you’re using or your Internet connection. In general the game is rather hefty in terms of assets and loading each scene may take time. If assets appear to be missing, refreshing the page may help.
