Everything from the little dev blurbs and jokes to the actual dialogue in this is great. The small things that really bring out a personality like Hikari and thunder or Sasha and being so fit for her "job". At first I though this was just gonna be like The Headmaster, but I much prefer how this is done.
Love this. Many funny moments. Kind of like those developer notes. I can feel all the effort on this game, and I really appreciate the in game walk-through. The developer must be an interesting person. Hope we can get an update soon.
Will there ever be an android version or is there some way to convert it from to one's u have to android? I get ite a frequently asked question but I see no answers on this matter.
This and all other visual novel games can be played on android using joiplay and renpy plugin. i played this on android 9 using joiplay. it run smoothly.
This is such a well made game. Looks like there's still lots of story left to discover. The only feedback I'd like to give is for the texting. When you get a text, it doesn't show who texted you, so it can get kind of tiring to click every single name until you find the correct person.
In fairness, it does show you this unless it bugged out. The person who texted you should have a blue tint to their bubble thing. However, I plan to make it so that the most recent texts show up at the top of the list when you go into the contacts menu, but I don't know 100% whether this will go into the coming update. I'm still working on the content at the moment rather than quality of life features. It's been like 9 months since the last update or something, so I mostly just wanna get the update released asap, but cutting corners isn't something I'd feel comfortable with.
As far as I know, it should just work. I'm not a mac guy so I don't know the specifics, but based on the number of downloads, and lack of comments about how it doesn't work, I'd suggest it's more to do with your system than it is about the game itself. Sorry man. Maybe antivirus blocking it? That can happen with renpy games sometimes.
I have no idea to be honest. Ren'py lets you just make a mac version, and that's what I've uploaded. I truly have no idea how games work on mac, but I assume there's some way since the mac version has been downloaded thousands of times, so I'd assume that if it didn't work I'd probably get more comments about this. Do you have any issues running other AVNs on your machine? It should work basically the same as any ren'py based game.
Just finished version 0.23 for the first time today and all I can say is wow. This game is amazing. The animations are some of the best I've ever seen. The writing is exceptional, these characters are memorable and they way they talk feels real. I also liked the developers little interjections here and there, even those were insightful and funny. The amount of choices and diverging paths can be a little overwhelming at first but it really stacks up to be the keystone system of the game and I think the developer has handled it very well. There is even a handy walkthrough option in game that give you a run down of each choice as it come up.
I love this game and I eagerly await for the next update.
This is a really fun game, excellent characters and graphics. When is the next update supposed to come out? It's been close toa year, is the developer still working on this?
Yeah so I'm definitely still working on it, as the other guy said. Long development cycle as it's been a crazy year and this isn't my full time job, but if it ever actually gets abandoned, it'll be displayed very clearly on every page over which I have control, and the patreon will be shut down. I wouldn't be able to sleep at night if I was was taking money to pretend to work on an updated. Next update is coming, and it's not a small one.
Man, ive played a few of these renpy games and most of the time you get either one of the two (good animation or good writing but you managed to combine both in a stellar way.
I really like your way of writing the story&girls, each has their own vibe which is nicely portrayed and the animations (porn ones and general slice-of-life ones) are fun and kinetic. Im really looking forward and will be coming back to this one when its further along :)
Thanks man. The entire point of the game was that for me it was hard to connect with characters in games which had good sexual content for various reasons, and also the characters I was able to connect with existed in games which in my opinion had not so great sexual content. I can't speak for the quality of the writing since I basically just write whatever feels good for me, since this game is made for me. If it turns out you like the way I'm doing it, then that's fantastic too. More to come.
Been playing the latest public build, and wow this game is great! Not just for the adult themes and such, but the story, the characters and their dialogue, and the humor is fantastic :) I'm keeping this on my followed list, I am looking forward to seeing this games' development and full release!
Help please. I accidentally pressed "d" while in game and it saved then reloaded. After that, there are a lot of missing images (even the one in the title screen). I tried deleting the game and extracting again but the setting is still there (my preferences and saves stayed). Where are my client settings stored so I can fully uninstall everything?
So sorry man, I have absolutely no idea what causes this. D can open the developer menu if you hold shift at the same time and have the renpy developer stuff downloaded (And also you're running the game through that) but outside of that, it shouldn't do anything at all.
The majority of what you're talking about though will be in a persistent file which will be stored in, C:\Users\Yourusername\AppData\Roaming\RenPy\Stormside-whatever
Delete that file, and it should get rid of anything that persists between save files. It'll reset your gallery too, but that's better than the game not working. (Also you can fully unlock the gallery at the end of the content without needing a mod, so you're fine)
This is an amazing game . But can someone help me out when I first log into the computer in the game and we reach the stream my screen just freezes and I'm unable to progress .
If you send me the save file, I can try to fix this manually. With that info, it's hard to diagnose. Best way to do it is discord, though I'm rarely in there these days. I'll keep an eye out for a few days though.
is anyone else having problems actually playing the game, like it downloads and the intro screen pops up but then it immediately goes away and that's it nothing else happens
I have no idea what causes this. My assumption would be antivirus killing it, as some antivirus programs have been known to strike down renpy games if they include certain python stuff. My game has a bunch of stuff like that, so sometimes it can happen. I'd suggest creating an exception in your antivirus software for it any trying again. No malware I promise lmao
Like others I am stuck at arrival at stormside, but the workaround doesn't seem to work for me. I edited the renpy-textfile, opened the console and typed messageCount = 1 left by pressing escape, but nothing changed. I tried different things, like restarting, doing it during/after the texting. Any ideas?
I would never in my life think, that I would be interested in the story of a porn game, but this is a fucking amazing story. The porn is good yeah but the writing, it's magnificent.
the whole fucking horror game aspect with the ghost hunt threw me off but let me say this the whole ghost bit can be a game by itself i yearn it reminds me of the point and click horror games i'd play in school
I've played outlast, I've played layers of fear, I am a huge horror game fan and horror movie fan; but let me tell you none of those will compare for the main fact that it doesn't go from a Pron game all lovey Dovey sexy whatever to this I am like just sitting here dumbfounded
I really liked this game. I loved the designs, animations and gameplay. As a scene completionist, I struggled a bit with which options to choose. I'll hold off on this for now and stick with the route I built in my game and leave trying other options later. A very good game without a doubt, I enjoyed every moment.
While I'd love to just say "not currently" the actual answer is just no. Not because I have anything against female protagonists, but more just because it's not right for my game. It would require such a massive rewrite that it would basically be a totally different game at that point. As just one person it's not really something I'd have time to accomplish by myself. If someone wanted to make a female PC mod or something and make the necessary changes, sure, but I'm not planning to do anything like that myself.
Bruh this game is actually hella good tbh, Its actually like the first 3d type VN that I actually paid attention to the story. I've just finished it in 1 day but now im attached to it lol. Good stuff man.
Hi, I keep getting stuck on Day 4 when the main character arrives at Stormside and gets the texts from his dad. After that, it doesn't let me do anything, but also doesn't crash. There's no further texts and gameplay does not proceed. Pleas help
Excellent work. i played stormside and enjoyed it a lot. The art is excellent and girls are very pretty. This game has all of my favourite themes like male domination, bdsm, and blackmail, and it does not have any of my disliked elements, such as i dislike Weak MC, Extra Large Boobs (which is very common in hentai), and dark girls. The story is interesting, but lacks clarity. The MC goal is to train girls at an academy to be obedient to their superior. MC is ordered to do this by the sponsors of the academy but so far it is not clear what the sponsors want. The MC personality is also quite inconsistent, because initially he is introduced as a simple, kind and friendly person who cares a lot about his family and female friends, then later when he makes choices like punish a girl and spank her, it does not really suit his initial personality. His dominant choices would make more sense if he was betrayed by a lover or multiple lovers in his backstory, then he will have a clear reason to mistreat or dominate a girl.
Overall, i really enjoyed this game. i first played the romance route, then submission and then slave route. My favourite scene was about Akemi offering herself to get spanked instead of her sister. That scene was very hot. it had very interesting and reasonable dialogue where the mc tried to anger her and manipulate her through careful planning. very hot.
i played this game on my smartphone y9 prime 2019 with 4 GB Ram, using joiplay and renpy plugin. it worked very smooth but there was one small error where the MC goes to riley when she is waiting outside the basement. The error was easily solved by skip button.
i am looking forward to the next updates. Excellent work creator Atem. Keep up the good work.
I haven't even gotten to the school yet and already love the game so much! I love the humor in this game. I usually get so bored and skip to the fun part in most of these games but I love reading the content and haven't skipped once. Hope you keep developing it and keep up the amazing work! ♥♥
I'm planning on downloading the patch to update my old existing 0.22.06. So I just download the patch and extract it to my regular files and put it into the old game folder in the Stormside game? That will update the 0.22.06 to the current 0.23.1.4? Wanted to makes sure I do it in the proper order so I don't lose my saved file.

impregnation?
Hi, great game i played from unofficial android port but do you think there will be Official android from you ?
Love this. Many funny moments. Kind of like those developer notes. I can feel all the effort on this game, and I really appreciate the in game walk-through. The developer must be an interesting person. Hope we can get an update soon.
The dorm room scene drawing is so funny :D
I laughed when I noticed the tiny words show up for the ghost hunt
so the lesbian content does it affect the story a lot if its off? and how good is the lesbian scenes
Will there ever be an android version or is there some way to convert it from to one's u have to android? I get ite a frequently asked question but I see no answers on this matter.
This and all other visual novel games can be played on android using joiplay and renpy plugin. i played this on android 9 using joiplay. it run smoothly.
next update when :(
I didn't realize this would lead to BDSM stuff. Too much for me. Good graphics though.
The game has multiple routes. If you stick to the romance routes for each character, you should be able to avoid that.
thanks, I hear you... I lose track easy. I definitely recommend the game.
Looks interesting. Wish it was available for Android.
You can play it with Joiplay and the renpy plugin, takes like 2 minutes and you are good to go. Can also play many other games that way.
The game looks fun but I have a small question for if I play, do the H scenes have sfx in them?
thanks
There's moaning and other sounds, yes.
hey its me. when is a new version coming out?
This is such a well made game. Looks like there's still lots of story left to discover. The only feedback I'd like to give is for the texting. When you get a text, it doesn't show who texted you, so it can get kind of tiring to click every single name until you find the correct person.

does anyone know how to get the game to work on macOS
As far as I know, it should just work. I'm not a mac guy so I don't know the specifics, but based on the number of downloads, and lack of comments about how it doesn't work, I'd suggest it's more to do with your system than it is about the game itself. Sorry man. Maybe antivirus blocking it? That can happen with renpy games sometimes.
it is with the game you download or the game you get through the .zip?
I have no idea to be honest. Ren'py lets you just make a mac version, and that's what I've uploaded. I truly have no idea how games work on mac, but I assume there's some way since the mac version has been downloaded thousands of times, so I'd assume that if it didn't work I'd probably get more comments about this. Do you have any issues running other AVNs on your machine? It should work basically the same as any ren'py based game.
every thing else works except another game called Para Park but that is because I don't have the correct app for it to work
but I mean other than that it still doesn't work so yeah it might be just my computer
What happens when you open it? It's running fine on my MacBook Pro.
the loading screen pops but then it disappears and thats it no intro screen or anything
I'm on a Macbook Air
The permissions on the embedded executable are wrong.
In the terminal, type:
chmod +x Stormside.app/Contents/MacOS/Stormside
You may need to prepend your path, e.g.,
chmod +x /Applications/Stormside.app/Contents/MacOS/Stormside
nah never mind I got it to work
Just finished version 0.23 for the first time today and all I can say is wow. This game is amazing. The animations are some of the best I've ever seen.

they are posting development updates on patreon as for when it will come out no idea
Yeah so I'm definitely still working on it, as the other guy said.

left by pressing escape, but nothing changed. I tried different things, like restarting, doing it during/after the texting.
Any ideas?
Did you press enter before leaving the console?
i had the same problem but then i used:
messageCount = 0
while the texts where open and it continued on for me. hope it works for you
Thanks a lot, that worked!
This was amazing please update on here soon
Will do as soon as it's actually finished (After the standard patreon early access stuff.)
Game has a bunch of branching, so it takes a while.
Been playing the latest public build, and wow this game is great! Not just for the adult themes and such, but the story, the characters and their dialogue, and the humor is fantastic :) I'm keeping this on my followed list, I am looking forward to seeing this games' development and full release!

I'm having that aswell but when I just close and re open it works
not for me i sometimes have to force quit the game because it doesnt work
I have no idea what causes this. My assumption would be antivirus killing it, as some antivirus programs have been known to strike down renpy games if they include certain python stuff. My game has a bunch of stuff like that, so sometimes it can happen. I'd suggest creating an exception in your antivirus software for it any trying again. No malware I promise lmao
love the game and story
dose any one know when the next update will be

I would never in my life think, that I would be interested in the story of a porn game, but this is a fucking amazing story. The porn is good yeah but the writing, it's magnificent.
if you like a good story check out games by caribdis. that guy knows how to make a good story

Im really sry if im annoying u with this question but would u give out an Android Version in the future?
just here to say im early in the game still enjoying it and loved the stickman figures. . . :)
Any plans to have the option to make the PC female?
While I'd love to just say "not currently" the actual answer is just no. Not because I have anything against female protagonists, but more just because it's not right for my game. It would require such a massive rewrite that it would basically be a totally different game at that point. As just one person it's not really something I'd have time to accomplish by myself. If someone wanted to make a female PC mod or something and make the necessary changes, sure, but I'm not planning to do anything like that myself.
Thank you for the honest reply! That very much makes sense.

theres already a comment about this here the solution:
" Hold Shift + O and it will open the renpy console, type (case sensitive)
messageCount = 1
in it and press escape, it should continue as per normal then"

Just found this game.
I like it!
I'm looking forward to where the BDSM scenes and story goes.
and ouch, that .23 cliffhanger... getting bushwhacked is worrying!
