Stormside
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
This is Stormside - An adult harem visual novel..
After returning from your time within a special military unit designed for people with magical abilities, you meet your childhood friend, Riley, and her best friend Cassie, who are planning their own next steps in life. You find yourself joining them at the Stormside International Academy.
It isn't long before you discover that this academy, and the way it treats its students is anything but ordinary...
(And no, the magical abilities aren't "you can corrupt girls with your mind" or anything like that..)
This is a game about an academy that allows female students to be sexually punished and/or rewarded by an individual known as "The Magistrate". When the Magistrate gets injured, his position is up for grabs, allowing you to take his place.
Will you use your new position to protect the girls from punishment, or will you use it to become their master?
The game features a branching story that changes depending on your choices, and so it's not possible to get all the content in one playthrough. It's worth knowing that going in.
880+ animations!
10,000+ renders!
So far...
Hope you enjoy :D Here's some characters..
If you like it, and wanna support development and get early access to builds and stuff....
Alternatively, if you just wanna come and shout at me...
Additional details
- The game features lesbian content, which you can opt out of. Doing so changes the story, but not negatively.
- All punishments are optional, with one exception. In the current version, there is one punishment you are forced to carry out, but you can choose to be tame.
- You definitely aren't gonna see all the content in one playthrough, and this will only become more true as development goes on. (You can use saves though to achieve this. The game does have named saves.)
- Not all the choices matter, but a lot of them do. There's a gallery unlocker at the end in case people just wanna see all the scenes though. There is (or will be) more than one way to get on each girl's route, the whole idea is to do what you wanna do, without having to worry about accidentally locking yourself out of your preferred outcome. Since the game is in development, it may seem like there's an optimal path right now, but as development continues, this may prove not to be the case. For example, not getting a scene at the end of the current update, means you'll most likely get a scene later on which you otherwise wouldn't have gotten. This game will be a completionist's nightmare lmao.
With all that in mind, have fun ya nerds.
Here are some other fun games :D

¿Cómo me paso el juego del fantasma?
我不希望这个游戏和极度异常一样停止开发
I tried getting to him thru Patreon PM, public chat, and reviews there and here. I would love if somebody that knows him could get some kind of confirmation from him as to what's going on.
This game is , so far, a lot better than others in the same vein that are a lot more complete than this one. I really want it to continue.
So it looks like the Dev has only posted on his subscription platforms and locked the posts behind paid tiers from December 2024. So if anyone over there can tells us if it's been abandoned that would be nice.
one of the discord mods got regular updates from the dev to pass on, but hasn't been able to reach the dev in a while and is unsure of the status of the game
is there a Chinese translation
Are the game really abandoned?
I hope not but the dev dosent anser. A discord mod postet somting on his server that he cant reach the dev in a while so it is unsure waht happend with the game
我想这个游戏被放弃了，以至于它长达1年多没有更新，希望作者能够继续更新这部佳作
I can only see three things happening
1 the developer abandoned the game
2 the developer died or something bad happened
3 the developer is working on a big update like heros harem guild or harem hotel or afterlife harem
lol or 4 dev is waiting on collecting a certain amount of money from supporters before releasing each new update. 5 dev has quit and just collecting $ from the 300+ supporters. And 6 the dev lost access/use of one of the games asset's from character’s or artist designs to music. Nowadays you need to have it in writing you can use assets in the adult game you are making even if it’s free content today it can change. Make sure the maker of the content knows what type of game you’re making. Or you will be like Eternum when they had to change their music midway through the game. Not all artist that give their gaming assets away will allow the assets they have made be used in adult games so get permission first. And screenshot the chat for your proof.
Developer hasn't been in contact for some time. Game is considered abandoned. Shame, this was a good game.
Sucky thing about this one being abandoned is that I like the story, and the premise for discipline WWWAAAAYYYYY Better than the Headmaster or That NEW Teacher. This one had the legs to be great. Too bad it has no love from the author. I would love to talk to the guy to see what he was thinking.
I dont blame him if he abandoned. He put more work than most devs and got very few supporters for the amount of content he put out.
I wouldn't know, since I just found it. But the fact that people are still talking about it on Itch, and Patreon tells me it has, or would have plenty of support, if he would bother to answer one of the many requests for information, positive or negative. But I guess the dev is just a quitter.
Nah thats just cope. I feel bad for his supporters but this guy worked harder than devs making a quarter mil. If he abandons, its more on us than him.
My guess is he was a college student and now is working a job that pays way more.
alguien tiene un parche para la última versión en español?
Does someone have a new link to the discord?
Discord server seems to be gone. Looks like the game is abandoned :'(
minor update, according to an F95 user - the discord is still active and people are posting. I can't find it through the search though and all the links are dead
I had to join the Patreon and give the link on the Patreon page a few tries but finally got in
Yes, don't know what happened to Stormside DC but heres atem's basement: https://discord.com/invite/6324CGJ3b4
Tried asking if anyone knew anything about Atemsiel on RougeOne's DC. Message got deleted. Seems like a touchy subject. I think its safe to say this is another one thats been abandoned. Such a shame
have chinese？
Русского языка нет? Проект большой а переводов нет
For those who are wondering about the lack of updates, on the Discord server, one of the administrators said that he has not been able to contact the creator of the game for months and, until he can, he does not recommend giving financial support to the game.
Fuck, really? Sending prayers
prayers for a weirdo who realized how fd up he is and changed his ways lmao
Coming from a prospective player of the mindless drivel solely present for m@stb8n in a way to reward a grifting coder. In all likelihood, creator abandoned project. And who the FUCK changed the color scheme for this game’s page to make it illegible>
ok rat lmfao
bruh
damn
Thanks for that. I was about to buy it til I read your comment.
Thanks for the info. Just found this game - probably the best game of its type and I LOVE the story so far. Would hate for it to be abandoned
如果语言可以 改变就好了
It would be nice.
I only discovered this story a week ago. It's a wonderful start. Better than the Headmaster or the New Teacher. It's too bad the project appears to have been abandoned. It was on it's way to being an amazing piece of work.
From admin in Stormside´s Discord server :(
“We need to go back to the serious issue of Atemsiel being absent and radio silent. Over the last few months I was somewhere in between, still having contact with him on messenger and getting info about the progress of the game and the issues he was working around.
As always, Atemsiel was passionate talking about his game and to the best of my knowledge, the update was close to being finished. However, communication with Atemsiel ground to a halt some time ago, and it seems no one has had any contact with him since. We don't know what happened, we don't even know if he is healthy, or anything.
And so, as much as it pains me, I have to draw a line. Until we hear from Atemsiel, I can no longer in good conscience recommend anyone to continue financially supporting the project. The future of Stormside is uncertain. We may still get an update someday, but at this point it's more of a dream than reality...”
Appreciate this. Let us know if there is any contact. Would love to hear a status, or reason for abandonment, or whatever. If there is a way any of us could reach him and let him know we want more of this great story, let us know. Thanks
I reached the end faster than I expected. I am not ready to leave my girls.
This Looks interesting tbh but I think It wasn't getting any updates anymore?
has this been abandoned? i was enjoying it
updates getting further and further apart, and more thana year since the last..
consider it abandoned.
pity, it was a fantastic game
Agreed such a shame another abandoned to add to my collection
On Mac can't open the game what happened?
One of the best out there. Love VAs with multiple branching paths, Cassie best girl btw. Don't forget to put simulator in the tags ;)
its embedded in the home screen of the game, just click on it.
The link is broken
Hmmm, it had worked for me, ok no problem, in discord, just type stormside and or Dr_Mattso in the search/add box and it should come up. I don't know any other way to help.
Does anyone have a functional link to the Discord if it still exists?
I've tried everything but all links are dead and I can't find him on DC search. Hope hes ok but absolutely gutted rn
I finally got in, I followed on Patreon and it auto put me in after a couple tries with the patreon link. Though he hasn't been heard from in about three months.
Everything you would want in a game like this: multiple routes, interconnected stories, moderate omniscient information with swift follow-up connection to the primary story, and dialog that keeps you in the moment, helping suspend your disbelief at the situation. I am (not so) patiently awaiting the next update!
The ghost hunt was really fun! One thing, though: The flashlight effect is made by attaching a darkening box to the cursor, yes? Well... If the cursor goes too far up or down, the box shows, and a bit of the bright environment shows.
I wish he'd use Ghosthands more liberally, though. I thought he said he could control up to 8 no problem? Still, he only used one against the ghost..
Well, I chose 4C; Illusions, but not strong, and not screaming, but not mischievous..
It can't be just a 3 because the player character and Sasha were tricked by an illusion making them split up, but type 5 seems much too strong to have stopped due to the duo regrouping, and be defeated with just one Ghosthand and Purging Torch strike.
It can't be Category A passive, and it didn't show signs of being mischievous. It screamed, but not at all times, and not on approach to building. Thus, A,B, and D are ruled out, leaving C.
So, 4C Ghost. Hope I'm right.
...I want more ghost hunting.
I personally went for 4B, it slammed a door, made sounds, was seen several times before attacking.
It didn't throw things to injure like C would, tho C does have the same thing about being seen before attacking.
And like you i agree it should be 4 since they got seperated by probably an illusion
Ah, I see. I may have chosen 4B if I turned up my sound, but it was nighttime for me so I had sound pretty low.
Still, I feel like this ghost wasn't exactly mischievous. I didn't feel any sense of a playful nature in it. Well, guess that's an instinct issue.
Hm... Welp, I guess I'll choose 4B if the ghost reappears. I wonder if John Chapters could just beat the ghost up into mush using Ghost Hands. It seems perfectly capable of interacting with the ghost 'physically', and restraining it easily.
im at the part when you just get to the school and for some reason after i finished messaging the dad the game wont continue on. Is there a reason for this?
same here! Please fix, this game is great
It might be the Scroll Wheel bug the Dev talks about ingame. I went back to the start and did a long Skip and the game proceeded normally.
is there any other workaround? what are you suppose to click after texting with your dad?
nm. went back to the night before where dad messages about not coming home for the night and auto skipped from there.
Android please
downloaded Mac version. I only get this help please
The application “Stormside” can’t be opened.
Try this:
https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/408752/the-message-you-do-not-have-per...
Basically, using Terminal, use these two commands on the application:
sudo chmod -R 755 /path/to/app
sudo xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /path/to/app
If it doesn't open afterwards, try putting it in the applications folder, and changing permissions to read and write... If that doesn't solve it, idk lol.
does anyone know why for me in rileys slave route when you take her virginity its grayed out for me and I cant choose the option so I have to complete the punishment as planned?
To be as spoiler free as I can. If Riley has too traumatic of an experience then you wont have the option. Try getting her out in a different way and then see if you have the option.
Anybody here on the Discord? Is gone? Deleted? If not, then what has the dev said?
I am. No new information/release date. The next update is supposed to be a big one, putting the game above 10GB. Nothing from the creator though. Just from their Admin.
do you have an invite link for it please?
我下载的PC
原始节点过少，下载差不多就停止下载怎么办
Does anyone know where the images on the right in the Magistrate Menu are located in the files?
para cuando el español?
I've been trying to find a walk through on this game to help go through the Slave Route, but I can't find one. Does anyone know of one
In the settings you can enable kinda a walkthrough. At least its showing you which effect every decision has if you hover above the choices.
nothing for full year a little dispointing
Did they abandon both this one and stray incubus? Haven't seen any update here for over a year and no news about incubus after episode 2 of season 2 either.
stray incubus is by someone else
