That's...entirely possible, actually. On loading my previous save, I may have advanced to the post-game screen before scrolling back to a point where the new chapter could start. I didn't realize that would reveal the bios in their entirety. Thankfully I only saw the one, minor spoiler. I'll be careful to avoid that in the future. I appreciate the insight.

I am certainly pleased with who won the goth contest, but I do feel a bit bad for Chloe. I legit thought she had one of the better outfits, and while I understand the logic behind the scores she received, I think it's a shame that her association with an enemy faction sabotaged her chances so severely. She seemed genuinely interested in participating.
Incidentally, I wanted to mention that the winner's bio reveals her victory even before the contest has started. I only know this because I went through most of the bios to refresh my memory as I began the latest update.
Overall, I really enjoyed the new content. I look forward to learning more about our new "friend". She's been an enigma from the start, and I can hardly wait to discover how she'll fit into all this. Thanks for the excellent experience!
I've had this game on my AVN todo list for a while now, and I finally got around to starting it the other day. Holy hell, I should not have waited so long! This is easily among my top three favorites now. Echoing earlier comments, the writing is phenomenal. Every character feels unique, which is hard to accomplish in a cast this large. Darci has absolutely perfect chaos gremlin energy, and I cheer every time she makes someone regret underestimating her. I can hardly wait to see what comes in the next episode.
Although BDSM isn't my thing, I've certainly come to understand it a bit more during my time with this. What's kept me here is the excellent writing and the impressive amount of actual game. Most Renpy games I've experienced are simple VNs, with player interactions limited to mere dialogue choices. Here we have an array of stats to manage, quests to follow (many of which are interconnected and can apparently have multiple outcomes), complex minigames, and an actual fail state. When I first booted it up and saw we had difficulty options, I knew this would be a unique experience, and I'm glad I've stuck around even if some of the themes aren't aimed at me. I'm looking forward to what else is in store.
My enjoyment of the game unfortunately dropped significantly after the events at the Gate. The departure of the Doc certainly hurt, but having her be replaced by an apathetic automaton whose only purpose seems to be providing certain plot-relevant skills and information... It felt like an unwelcome downgrade.
I'm also confused about the addition of "tiger bro". He seems fine on the surface, but he feels like a weird inclusion when the rest of the crew (minus the aforementioned replacement doctor) is made up of gorgeous girls you can repeatedly bed. Alex's presence at least made sense; he's the unappealing creeper that makes MC look good by comparison. But I don't understand Vann's purpose.
In any case, the story is enough to keep me coming back for future updates. I just hope things shift closer to what initially drew me in.
I have to agree with the first point. Having that moment with Helen, and then having it cut off while implying far more happened, felt kind of cruddy. I can understand that scenes like that take a lot of effort, but simply saying "and then they banged like three more times" seems like a failure to deliver.
That said, I really enjoy what we have so far, and I'm curious to see where the story goes from here. Looking forward to future updates.
Hmm... Well, you are a very capable writer, clearly. It's why I enjoy the game as much as I do. I'm glad to hear Rachel will eventually change her ways, but I do worry that even if she gets accepted into the group, her presence will be a constant reminder of the terrible things she's put us through. I'm having a hard time picturing her eventual acceptance as anything but pity, but I trust that you can give her a satisfying redemption arc. I thank you for your efforts, and I look forward to everything you have in store.
Exactly! So many other girls have good chemistry with the MC and also get along with one or more girlfriends already. Almost anyone else in the cast would be more deserving of a spot in the harem. Rachel has repeatedly wronged both the MC and several of his favorite people, while showing virtually no remorse for her behavior. I would consider it a miracle if she's ever redeemed.
I'm very much enjoying the game so far, but I have to be straight: I despise Rachel, and I really, really hope she does not become one of the girlfriends. I want her nowhere near our happy little harem, especially considering the limit we've been given on how many girls we can invite (though I wouldn't be surprised if that limit is expanded at some point).
I played Once in a Lifetime just before playing Eternum, and while I enjoyed OiaL, this one is leagues above it. It takes everything great about OiaL and dials it up 500%. The story, the characters, the comedy, the art and animation, the music, everything is stellar. I can hardly wait for the next version.
There is no NTR, at least not on any of the routes I followed.
I should clarify: On the routes I've explored, several people attempt to take one of the MC's love interests, but the "harem path" has the MC resist. I suppose if you make a specific choice in one of those moments, a girl could be lost and end up with someone else, but the game considers that a bad thing.
Additionally, the MC can steal someone else's love interest, but I'm not sure if that would fit the definition of NTR-adjacent. It's not a niche I'm very familiar with.
Just completed my first time through this little gem. Fantastic stuff. With all the "in-progress" games of this sort on itch, it's nice to find one with a proper conclusion. That said, I'll definitely be looking into the dev's other game, Eternum, which I understand is still being made. I'm certain it'll be just as good, if not better.
This is precisely why I wanted to call it out. There's clearly been effort devoted to playing around with camera angles and character positions to make sure we never get an unobstructed view of the guy, while still allowing for a variety of shots that aren't simply over the MC's shoulder. It's a fun bit of extra polish I wouldn't expect most devs to bother with, so I wanted to recognize it.
There's obviously a lot to like about this game, but I wanted to extend my appreciation for a very minor visual gag that always gets a chuckle out of me: the various methods used to obscure the MC's face. He's always got his back to the camera, or he's slightly out of frame, or one of the girls conveniently holds up a plastic cup while he's in the background, or some other contrivance. I enjoy it every time.
I had to come by and drop a comment after...well, I won't spoil it, but if you know, you know. This entire experience has been phenomenal. You have gone so far above and beyond what most games of this genre bother with. Yes, there are hot girls and amazing lewd scenes, some drama here and there, day-to-day choices to make. Most games would stop at that point. But not you. You've got lore, you've got complex and interconnected relationships going back generations, you've got an incredible meta-mystery that involves the mechanics of the game itself, all drip fed at a consistent pace to make it enticing enough to want to keep digging.
You are an excellent storyteller, and that deserves recognition. I greatly look forward to future content you have in store.
I'm only a little ways into the new version, but I'm already enjoying the new content, particularly the blending of some related kinks in Nylah's intro. Much appreciated.
For what it's worth, I don't mind the shift to in-browser. It runs fine, and it's easy enough to hide toolbars and such to get a fullscreen experience (I'm using Chrome, incidentally, and I've had no issues). If you believe this is the best way to develop the game going forward, I have no objections. Just wanted to pass along my support. Looking forward to what else is in store.
Not sure if this is a known issue, but I was able to unlock Lina's first corruption level without following all the steps in the in-game guide. The guide calls for Nerve 4 and pursuing a certain scene with Alex. I instead had Nerve 2 and caught Lina watching Sami after our horror movie foot play. Lina and I enjoyed our time together (I made sure to aim properly), we went our separate ways, and I got the unlock.
Is this by design and the guide is simply out of date? Or did I stumble into something that was never supposed to be possible?
Loving the game, by the way. Excellent writing. Looking forward to more.
