Hello everyone, Corintio here!
Today I want to show you this video of the process Nicholas Balm is having on designing the composition of our new dungeon before Luke works on the smaller bits and adds the gameplay area. Since we'll gonna work on Millhaven this month, there isn't an actual deadline to when this dungeon will be playable, but you should expect some really nice clues about what happened to the world during the time Kalyskah was in slumber.
Thank you for all your suppo...

Hello everyone!
Just wanted to thank you all who supported us and that renewed your pledge. We got many new faces last month and that made us extremely happy and excited... If things keep going well, we might be even able to expand the team in the near future to speed up the development process. So again, thank you!
Another thing I wanted to say is that I got a bit too carried away while reviewing the locomotion system and now I'm basically doing a lot of housekeeping on the anima...

Hello everyone, Corintio here!
I just wanted to make a quick post to say that we currently have plans to review the whole town of Millhaven to make it look a lot more immersive, having a high street, some farms around it and so on. That means that we will soon be changing the landscape and buildings.
The hard work will actually start on day 19th of the next month, but until then, Tiny Talisman will be preparing the ground and we'll be discussing some improvements on the flow of th...

Hello everyone, Corintio here!
We've been busy on the last week working on both the weather and the new erotic cutscene for the Heirloom lost quest. Although the cutscene is not ready yet, we are releasing today for our Royal Blood patrons a new patch that is mostly to gather some feedback on how is the game's performance with this new version of the engine and also if you are having any trouble when it starts to rain or snow.
The weather change naturally while you are playing, bu...

Hello patrons!
I've noticed that in the past weeks we got many new supporters! We welcome you all!
That makes the team very excited and also, worried about how happy you are with our game and Patreon page so we can make sure that you will all stay with us on this journey.
This poll showed you our medium-term plans, but there are also some fundamental questions that we, from Nobre Lobo, should ask ...

Hello everyone, Corintio here!
We have recently updated the game to Unreal Engine 4.26, and this opened A LOT of possibilities!
The first thing we did was to add a weather system, which is fully integrated to the save\load system, which means that it won't change every time you load your game or travel between maps (although we don't have different maps for you to travel yet). But there's more!
- Kalyskah will only take sunlight damage during sunny days or days where there ...

Before I go through everything I intend to talk about today, I firstly would want to talk about the current state of the game: We have several small quests written, but they are not voiced or at the engine yet. There's a new one that has been sent to Amy, Luke and Christina to record just this week and they might finish recording before the month's end, hopefully, if everything goes right we might be able to finish the heirloom lost quest this month and at the first half...

Hello everyone, Corintio here!
Today is a big day to us because the patch we are releasing now is meant to solve MANY of the bugs and visual glitches that you have seen in the game for a long, long time. There are still things here and there that we'll need to adjust, especially on the way the Safe Heaven quest deals with save\loading its progress. But for many reasons, the game should feel way much more satisfying to play now. All thanks to you for reporting these bugs and Luke (The le...

Hello everyone!
I think some of you might be familiar with the negotiation system we have at the dungeon. We are planning to bring it back to the open world!
Our idea is to have guards and bandits around that Kalyskah could bribe in case she gets defeated. The idea is that she would be able to give them some coins, items or attempt to seduce or to taunt them. The thing is, to make this system more effective, we have to make being defeated in combat more severe, so the player will ...

Last week the patron Sati Starr made us aware that during dialogues and cutscenes, if the player pressed the spacebar, Kalyskah would slide down the ground, and also that you could activate and deactivate the blood buff during dialogues!
This Blood Buff was a bigger problem if you had active while defeating the boss, then Kalyskah would be stuck with it turned on and there would be nothing you could do to stop her from using all of your blood p...

As I mentioned in the last post, I wanted to start showing you some of the games I've seen and that maybe you might enjoy. This one in particular, as Kalyskah, you play with a female-protagonist.

This is the last patch of 2020 and I couldn’t be happier, we accomplished most of what we were planning to accomplish this year, with the first arc that introduces the story (city of thieves’ questline), improved combat, the vegetation is looking better at each day.

This patch will have the dialogues where Kalyskah will finally be able to tell Margaret and Harry how things went with the bandits who stole their heirl...

As I mentioned before, this is the newest patch for the latest public version. There are things to improve still, but I reckon that nothing game-breaking should happen with frequency. Let us know if you find something odd going on!

Hello everyone!
Just a heads up that we'll be releasing a new patch for version 0.13 (currently public) because we just realised that most of the trees of the creepy forest were missing on the open world. It will also have a new small cave somewhere where you can fight a troll and get a chest with some gold coins. Just to give something extra to it as well, together with some other small fixes.

- Fixed Kalyskah looping in walk cycle while talking with Travert
- Fixes in Landscape collision
- Fixed NPCs sliding on the ground while moving on the city if they had just got out of an interactable object.

It has a new quest and several improvements on the combat and general feeling of the game. Also better vegetation and open world!

Just a heads up that the next patch will be released within the next 24 hours if everything goes right. Almost everything is ready, I just realised that I'll have to tune down the enemy blocking system and make some fine tunes on the boss fight after I changed how the launchable attacks work.
Then I'll have to test and so on... But the Public demo of version 0.13 is really close to be released!

Today I want to tease something we've been working on during this week: A new Dungeon!
In the beginning, this will be a very tiny thing but there will be a quest in the future that will give you the means to open a hole on one of the walls and explore the place even further to go after a little bit of the lore and uncover some of what happened during the unknown amount of years that Kalyskah spent in slumber!

Hello everyone, Corintio here!
This is one of those patches that seem to have a small changelog, but the truth is that it’s the result of two months of work (Or a bit more). I had to program some new mechanics on the way the game deal with Saved Games and Quests, also had to animate several new poses and cutscenes. Although they are not those fancy cinematics that we see on the big games, and that they are FAR from being perfect (Some of them are even with some weird rotations that I ...

Hello patrons!
Just a heads up about the bug that is causing the loot on the chests of the dungeon not to be spawned. Turned out it was a behaviour we had on the game only when we start it by pressing "new game" on the main menu. That's why I didn't manage to test it before while I was programming and thought everything was all right until we released the patch. Because when I'm programming the game, I test it by pressing play on the level I'm working on.
Anyway, the bug is fixed ...
