Do you mean for a save file that you already turned it on for? The way it works is that once you enable it for a save file, that's it, that save is purged, even if you disable the setting again.
I mostly made it that way because due to exactly what that setting does, it's not something anyone who would actually be using it would want to toggle on and off generally. It's not a setting I would recommend for many people, even those who don't want to see lesbian scenes. I may change it so that it doesn't permanantly affect saves in the next update though, since I mostly made it this way to kinda parody the absurdity of the setting.
I started a save with it on then I deleted my saves to start a fresh one with it off and it wouldn't let me switch it off for some reason.. right now, no matter what I do, including deleting the entire game folder and re-unzipping, it won't let me switch it off..
ren'py games always get flagged as malware, no they're not viruses, just ignore that lol, not sure why, but they are treated the same way cracked games are by ur pc
although I would suggest being careful if you use anything other then itch for avns, itch is the actual dev but on f95zone for example it's often others posting, so be careful as recently some malware and keyloggers have surfaced with some games (removed now but still a possible threat in future)
This seems like an AMAZING game. Unfortunately, many many many of us will never know. The only links to this game are for MEGA and GDRIVE. MEGA has a 5GB transfer limit if you don't have an account unless you want to jump through all kinds of hoops. GDRIVE hardly EVER WORKS. So its unfortunate that so many wont even get a chance to try it because of the horrible server choice that was chosen to host the files. Damn. Really sucks it isnt just hosted here on Itchio or at least GoFile.... :\ :(
I am just here to thank Atemsiel for making this game. It took me a whole 5 minutes to decide I wanted to support the game 😄. There are so many reasons that I could never list them all but let me just say that the story, the animations, the renders, the humor, the music and sound effects all make this one of the funnest games I ever played. And I cannot believe that I had to come to itch to find the Linux version. Later I found the same thing was on Patreon. I can be so dense sometimes. Added at the last minute. How come no matter how I search, this game never comes up on itch? I had to find an external link. I have also found an unexpected side effect of playing this game. Now all other games seem boring 😒.
Hey, what do you use for the renders? Some other games with a similar visual style seem to use Honey Select 2 or some modification of it it seems. I want to know for sure before I bother to obtain a totally legal and legitimate copy of it. I have been wanting to try my hand at making a visual novel (or any game for that matter) for a bit.
Yep, it's all honey select 2, though I do sometimes incorporate photoshop as well, mostly just to fix visual glitches and stuff. If you decide to try your hand at it, be sure to get one of the precompiled modpacks for it, since totally default HS2 has almost nothing in it in terms of maps, clothes, etc. Be warned, these packs can be like 250gb in size, but they're basically essential if you wanna make a VN, so you kinda have to just bite the bullet if you really wanna explore what you might be able to do. I'd also recommend joining the Illusion discord once you've got it downloaded and installed, as that's probably the best place to get new mods as they're released. There's a special channel there for it where you can see what mod creators are releasing to the public, and from there if you find a specific modder who makes a lot of stuff you like, there are links to where you can support them if you choose to. It's a pretty chill setup.
Hey, was just wondering if game's still making progress or if it will stay at 0.23.1.4 vers here on itch.io ? I really love the game and I'm eagerly waiting for the next update but I know that you're a human person and have a life on the side and all. Just a genuine question.
Yep, the game isn't abandoned, it just takes me a while to make the content for it. I'm hoping to have 0.23.2 released for supporters at the end of May, but I don't know yet whether I'll be able to stick to that. We shall see. Lots to do.
Totally understandable, you game is clearly a high tier, graphics, character, gameplay, story, I like a lot of things in Stormside an will cross my fingers for you to find enough time motivation and succeed in what you do anb in this game ! Will eagerly wait for any update or post ^^
I appreciate that. The length comes from the branching really, purely because I like that kinda thing. In terms of word count I think it's actually fairly long, but you will only ever experience like 30% of the game in a single playthrough, but this is by design. Despite this kinda being the opposite of what most AVN players want, this game is intended for multiple playthroughs.
(Though I wouldn't recommend anyone do them back to back. More just like, revisit it every now and then and try doing things differently to see what happens. There are some events that occur in all cases, and it's no fun to just play the same thing over and over.)
I'm confused with the size of this game I figured I'd get more story but I only got a couple hours, when the MC walks into the bathroom for the spray paint text is that actually the last scene? Or am I missing something, I also didn't get to do anything more then 3 punishments which is ok but I'd figure there would've been more?
( Not complaining I love the story, just curious if I missed a couple missions)
Yep, there's a fairly simple reason for this. One of the primary focuses of the game is choice and branching. Each of the 7 main girls have 3 potential routes you can take with them, and so the filesize comes from making content across all those routes. Even within the routes there is still variation in what can happen based on your choices, and so whilst a single playthrough isn't all that long, the game is designed for those who like to try doing things in multiple different ways. I'm aware that the vast majority of AVN players prefer to get pretty much everything in one playthrough, but the vast majority of AVNs are already built for that, so I intend this one to be different.
Eventually, the plan is that it will be a decent overall length, but within that length there is actually a fairly stupid amount of content. Working towards that goal already puts it at close to 400k words, almost 1000 animations, and over 10k renders, so by the time it's done it should be certifiably massive. (Though it will appear normal length for anyone who only plays it once.)
If you've only played through it once, then there is likely quite a lot of the game you haven't seen. A good example of this is the end of Riley's party thing. There are 4 different ways that can end, and so there are I think 5 different versions of the morning scene the following day, 4 of which being around 30-40 minutes long (If you read at a similar speed to me.)
Luckily, if you basically just want to unlock all the scenes, there's a gallery unlocker at the end of each update that will fully unlock the gallery and let you see what you missed. It only works for the sex scenes though, so anything you missed outside of sex scenes won't be unlocked.
Thank you, I play the game on android so it's not at all easy to fin games that are good enough to download for that size if you know what I mean... But so far this Avn is totally worth it
Well luckily I plan to release all updates as patches, so you shouldn't have to redownload the entire game every time. I have no idea how that works for android, but if that still works then there's that I suppose. I'm glad you're enjoying the game :D I do my best to keep the filesize down but despite the average length of a single playthrough, it's actually quite a large VN in terms of assets.
Possibly as an ending, but I don't plan to include it just for the sake of the fetish. It has fairly massive story implications, so I can't really just include it on a whim.
Hey @Atemsiel, I just wanted to let you know of an error I ran into in version .23.1.4, just after making the bet with Akemi and headed to meet Riley in the basement. I don't know the best way of letting you know of the issue.
Not sure how much that helps... let me know if you need a copy of the log and the best way to get it over to you. Ignoring it allowed me to continue, so not a huge deal as its just a compressed audio file.
Looking forward to the next update, we got left with a big cliffhanger and anxious to see who exactly these people are and where the story goes!
Hey, sorry, just saw this. I'm aware of this bug and it's been fixed for the next version. It's basically because there's a space at the end of the filepath, and there isn't supposed to be.
Thanks for letting me know though, it's important that people report bugs even if they've been reported before, as you never know whether or not you're the first to report something.
this is one of the most intriguing AVN's ive played and was really sad when it ended in the bathroom scene on a cliff hanger but I'm really exited to play the game with more of the quirky Russian girl and get the shit scared out of me by a ghost (again) love this game keep it up. :)
Tbh I'm having a difficult time trying to download this, maybe it's my laptop, or maybe it's the link itself. Kinda disappointing but I'll try again sometime
I have a question if anyone has the answer, I just finished the game and checked gallery and i understand some scenes are locked behind sub,romance and slave but what about the other scenes? I feel like i would of got more scenes unless they arent added into the story and only available for gallery. For example when i played i decided to make sasha submissive but there are several more scenes in gallery that i didnt obtain.
Yep, so the reason for this is that the branching isn't just a case of picking a route for each girl. Some routes have additional choices within them that can lead to different content. Using Sasha as the example, you can make her submissive and you get content associated with that, but what if you didn't get to punish her after the first ghost hunt? In which case, you get a different scene if you choose to punish her later on. It's that kinda thing. I do this because I like choice in games, but I know not everybody has the time to go through a game multiple times to get everything, so you can unlock all scenes at the end of the game if you really want.
Hey i played this through a few months back and when i finished it i unlocked the whole gallery but now i want to play through it again and want to aim for different things in the gallery, how do i delete my save file to start a new?
I'd really like to play this, but the downloads keep failing.
I gave up trying to get the file from Mega after a handful of attempts (their service has really gone downhill lately for me in general) and I've tried over a dozen times to download it from Google, but it fails prematurely every time.
They're very reliable and have been around forever. I never have any trouble using their service for downloads. Even really large files download perfectly on the first attempt for me.
Yes I don't know if I tried google drive already somewhere else, but i don't like when it tells me it can't check whatever it tries to check from a download.
On closer inspection, it seems Mediafire has a max 2GB file size limit for free accounts, so that might not be viable.
Pixeldrain (https://pixeldrain.com/) is another service I have seen other AVN devs use as an alternative to Google and Mega, and they allow up to 20GB files, no account required.
I have downloaded successfully from them in the past, so that might be an option you could look into at least for public releases.
First of all, I like the game. I can feel the enthusiasm and creativity put into making it. I only just finished the first ghost event and BOY do I have a lot to say up until this point.
My major qualm as a software developer is the following: if you have time to write tens of lines of text to explain that your code is bad, you should spend that time learning how to make your code bad. If you have to tell me that scroll doesn't work because it causes bugs, don't tell me that - disable scrolling altogether. There were more instances of this, but this one was the biggest by far.
My second issue is as a game designer: Let your gameplay explain what you want the player to do. Ghost hunt sequence was painful in this regard. it first gave me a whole bunch of text to read, then let me skip out of it. Some objects that are interactable make a noise, others don't (like the bones). Books are the same color as the background, so they were often invisible. Also, if I want to open a map, I have to open a book and then click twice to the right. Why isn't a map a button by itself? There is a metric butload of great videos on this topic as well as programing, I heartily recommend it.
Lastly, as a consumer, the whole product feels underbaked. So many features feel uncomplete. When I see so many uncompleted features in the first few hours of playing, I expect to see even more going forward.
I will now give an advice, out of my best intention for you to expand as a game maker. Make a todo list of all the bugs and missing/half-done features and start working through it. If you have a time budget for game development, dedicate a significant chunk of that time to this (e.g. 30% of time or 1/3 days, whatever works for you). If you are unsure in what order to tackle things, ask for advice, I'm sure someone will be willing to help (myself included). And then just start doing them. Take one item from the list and do it until you finish it or realize you cannot finish it without adding more things to the todo list. And just keep doing this as long as you need to. This will help you develop your skills immensely and it will be a boon going forward because you will learn how to avoid making mistakes in the future and you will start pumping out features and content even faster.
I wish you all the luck and I can't wait to see what this project turns into! Good job!
Hello Mr. Atemsiel. It's me, again. This time with a shorter post, just wanna ask a question. How is the sex scene with Sasha in the latest update supposed to be accessed? I, for the life of me, couldn't find it. I like to unlock all the scenes organicanically to i can know the context in which they take part. However, i used the "unlock everything" button for the first time to unlock this scene because i couldn't figure out what i needed. From the scene itself, it seems that in her slave route, you make the deal with her (that you'll give her some relief if she can stay quiet in class) but she doesn't manage to and you punish her for it. But that doesn't seem to be possible ingame? Help appreciated!
Please for the love of all things right, leave at least the first "render" as is for the Directors visit on the 4th. I spit when it popped up from laughing and it was hilarious.
hello , could really use some assistance, I'm stuck on a part where I've arrived at the school and i cannot progress. tells me to open my phone but i already talked to father, i joined discord server and I'm try to get help on fixing this, thanks (if i have to send a save file i will need help on that process. or should i try redownloading?
For me when i had this happen i rolled back to before the txts and clicked through it, then closed and reopened the message, clicked once again and it got me through. The phone seems a little buggy and it was mentioned to be careful with it in the very beginning. Hope this works if you havent gotten it fixed yet

Any idea why I can't turn off the lesbian block on settings? it doesn't seem to be working =/
and I'm referring to no spice please. the off button doesn't work for m

Hmmm, that's an odd one. Do you mean that even in the options menu the button itself doesn't react to you clicking it?
Yep, it lights up but doesn't switch at all.
Please make android version i wanna play this game in phone not PC
This is up there with once in a lifetime. Exceptional game

Why is this getting flagged as malware?

Drag the renpy folder from this onto the existing one in the game. It should replace 2 files. Saves should work fine after that.
So far, so good. Enjoying the story and content and look forward to what comes next
This seems like an AMAZING game.

how to update(step by step pls)
Anyone know the app that allows u to play these PC versions on android
Joiplay
Ahh thank you, much appreciated!
Hey i played this through a few months back and when i finished it i unlocked the whole gallery but now i want to play through it again and want to aim for different things in the gallery, how do i delete my save file to start a new?
Great game man! when is 0.24 coming out??
God damn this game made we laugh too much. You hit the right balance with the humor and timing of some silly situations in this game.
I'd really like to play this, but the downloads keep failing.
I gave up trying to get the file from Mega after a handful of attempts (their service has really gone downhill lately for me in general) and I've tried over a dozen times to download it from Google, but it fails prematurely every time.
(EDIT 4/09/2024: See my reply comment.)
Any chance you can upload to MediaFire as an alternative? (https://www.mediafire.com/)They're very reliable and have been around forever. I never have any trouble using their service for downloads. Even really large files download perfectly on the first attempt for me.Yes I don't know if I tried google drive already somewhere else, but i don't like when it tells me it can't check whatever it tries to check from a download.
On closer inspection, it seems Mediafire has a max 2GB file size limit for free accounts, so that might not be viable.
Pixeldrain (https://pixeldrain.com/) is another service I have seen other AVN devs use as an alternative to Google and Mega, and they allow up to 20GB files, no account required.
I have downloaded successfully from them in the past, so that might be an option you could look into at least for public releases.
Love the detail in the options for the "British" unit type, A+ game just for that dumb joke.
Also please never change the scribbled curfew scene, that was too funny.
I would like to give some unsolicited feedback.
First of all, I like the game. I can feel the enthusiasm and creativity put into making it. I only just finished the first ghost event and BOY do I have a lot to say up until this point.
My major qualm as a software developer is the following: if you have time to write tens of lines of text to explain that your code is bad, you should spend that time learning how to make your code bad. If you have to tell me that scroll doesn't work because it causes bugs, don't tell me that - disable scrolling altogether. There were more instances of this, but this one was the biggest by far.
My second issue is as a game designer: Let your gameplay explain what you want the player to do. Ghost hunt sequence was painful in this regard. it first gave me a whole bunch of text to read, then let me skip out of it. Some objects that are interactable make a noise, others don't (like the bones). Books are the same color as the background, so they were often invisible. Also, if I want to open a map, I have to open a book and then click twice to the right. Why isn't a map a button by itself? There is a metric butload of great videos on this topic as well as programing, I heartily recommend it.
Lastly, as a consumer, the whole product feels underbaked. So many features feel uncomplete. When I see so many uncompleted features in the first few hours of playing, I expect to see even more going forward.
I will now give an advice, out of my best intention for you to expand as a game maker. Make a todo list of all the bugs and missing/half-done features and start working through it. If you have a time budget for game development, dedicate a significant chunk of that time to this (e.g. 30% of time or 1/3 days, whatever works for you). If you are unsure in what order to tackle things, ask for advice, I'm sure someone will be willing to help (myself included). And then just start doing them. Take one item from the list and do it until you finish it or realize you cannot finish it without adding more things to the todo list. And just keep doing this as long as you need to. This will help you develop your skills immensely and it will be a boon going forward because you will learn how to avoid making mistakes in the future and you will start pumping out features and content even faster.
I wish you all the luck and I can't wait to see what this project turns into! Good job!
Riley is best gurl, Cassie is super close second
(Just finished 0.23.1)
Great game, really love it.
Now... WTF IS THAT ENDING????
Mega link isnt working so well it keeps going into error so is there another way to download ?
Can i launch with joiplay on Android
Hello Mr. Atemsiel. It's me, again. This time with a shorter post, just wanna ask a question. How is the sex scene with Sasha in the latest update supposed to be accessed? I, for the life of me, couldn't find it. I like to unlock all the scenes organicanically to i can know the context in which they take part. However, i used the "unlock everything" button for the first time to unlock this scene because i couldn't figure out what i needed. From the scene itself, it seems that in her slave route, you make the deal with her (that you'll give her some relief if she can stay quiet in class) but she doesn't manage to and you punish her for it. But that doesn't seem to be possible ingame? Help appreciated!
I know it was probably pretty easy to code but I'm impressed by the laptop actually screwing with the charactors name!
Please for the love of all things right, leave at least the first "render" as is for the Directors visit on the 4th. I spit when it popped up from laughing and it was hilarious.
I came to share the same. I laughed for 5 nonstop minutes. Brilliant.
hello , could really use some assistance, I'm stuck on a part where I've arrived at the school and i cannot progress. tells me to open my phone but i already talked to father, i joined discord server and I'm try to get help on fixing this, thanks (if i have to send a save file i will need help on that process. or should i try redownloading?
For me when i had this happen i rolled back to before the txts and clicked through it, then closed and reopened the message, clicked once again and it got me through. The phone seems a little buggy and it was mentioned to be careful with it in the very beginning. Hope this works if you havent gotten it fixed yet
Press the D key, Wait, after the error screen appear choose ignore for skip the scene.
