So what you're saying is, never buy a game on Itch because either the dev or Itch will shaft you! And I was one of the idiots that paid for this back in the day. Only one dev going onto steam has given out steam keys to Itch purchasers, so lets see what these devs do. I am not confident!
It will be posted on f95zone at some point I sure. It's It's great place to get games if you don't have access to other sites. games are free on there so at least compensate by becoming a patron if you go the f95zone route
Can't trust anything on Steam either, whether it's abandoned or updated.
I purchased Artemis a couple of days ago, and it was version 0.4.2, yet the most up to date game is 0.6.1b. I tried to contact the dev (left a message), but no reply.. so I ended up getting a refund from Steam.
This game has spoiled me so much. It's one thing to be endeared to characters in other VNs, but none of them have ever felt or looked so real to me. It's incredibly immersive! Every other realistic VN I've played, no matter how good they are otherwise, just can't compare to the quality of these renders, and I can't seem to find anything else like it. I'll gladly wait 5 more years if it means more content for this game!
Edit: Ash is a Manic Nixie Nightmare girl, but I can fix her.
Hey, about not finding anything of the same quality, have you every tried the games from Cardibus or played Cosy Cafe, The Headmaster, Harem Hotel or Companion of Darkness?
I think you might like some of them, they are some of the highest quality VNs i have seen and are all great.
Just a quick thing for everyone here, the game is NOT abandoned, they have been working on bonus episodes elsewhere, have EP 11 On Patreon/ And OppaiMan Store. They plan on continuing on EP 12 once they finish getting EP 1 - 11 on Steam.
Alright, just offer is a price here, this is one of the only ways I know I can still pay, especially if i don't want an patreon subscription.
It might not be so bad but I already dislike the idea that you have to figure out how to even stop paying and then you probably have to pay again if you want to update or whatever.
Then he can start selling them here if he isn't like the other two I had recently, starting a new game and deleeting the old you payed for, or ...actuallly forgot how the other one here scammed me.
Man this would make a great TV series. I agree. However needs to be more polished and more options for the characters. MC needs to have more choices with the women he goes after and interacts with. Example, if he does not want to engage with Ash for instance, then there should be an option to do that in all the sex scenes. However you are forced to interact and given no choice.
I understand that it is only a Visual Novel, and that adding extra options can open to many other options. Yes I get that, however the MC is not a "brainless idiot" either and has been shown that he can make the "right" choices with Em during the whole story for example. I get that Ash is a "thorn" in his side, however she can still be knocked back for some of the sex scenes if you play the MC a certain way. Don't get me wrong I would love it if she too was a main love interest in this story as well. Would be fascinating to see her evolve and explore her line.
Still I love the story and all the characters and the time and effort for all the work that has been put into it and will continue to support it. I would love to see the story evolve beyond what it has so far. This can be an epic and in a way feel sorry for the writer because this can just keep going and going. There is so much to explore in this.
Thank you AZ for a great story and I look forward to every episode you put out.
Looks like this game won't see anymore updates here. They uploaded to another site https://www.oppaiman.com/ for episode 11 at a $10 price point at time of this posting.
Came out in June on the patreon page, dev is starting a second game and once the first episodes come out Halfway house will be released on steam and production of episode 12 will start.
You should add Ashley as a major Love Interest. Her story is amazing, and she can develop into a major player in the game. The dynamic there doesn't even have to change. That's what makes her interesting. One I personally prefer her looks over Emily, but also her personality. The back and forth between them can be amazing with them being romantically involved. This is what we need. A path towards the innocent Em, and a path towards the experienced but emotionally broken Ash. Imagine that.
Still not completely sure where I fall on this VN. I think it'll depend on the landing.
I did want to comment on how good a job you did with Ashley. Every time I think I'm done dealing with her attitude she says or does something that makes me want to keep trying to befriend her. And I don't mean the sexual stuff. The sexual stuff is (for someone like me) a huge warning sign to run. A woman like that comes on to you and she's about to take your money, dignity and health and she won't be picky about the order.
But the very small cracks in that persona and how well they communicate that sex is the only domain in which she feels in control keeps from listening to that instinct. So thanks for that!
Emily path is so confusing i tried all different choices flirted as much but keep get check failures i have her corruption points at a high and love points were like 8/10 at episode two its not very clear on what you want the player to do

Why isn't mega allowing me to open the file for Android after I have downloaded the file
It's garbage and boring so noone will miss it
for everyone here this isn't abandoned
it will be releasing on steam before to long the dev said they have it mostly working for there
but on here don't expect to ever see more updates as itch gets weird with certain games being sold supposably

Great, this was a great game and I can only really buy this here, germany has no chance on steam no matter your age.
It will be posted on f95zone at some point I sure. It's It's great place to get games if you don't have access to other sites. games are free on there so at least compensate by becoming a patron if you go the f95zone route

I want, have to buy this here, steam doesnt let me prove my age and germany people think we get a heartattack from this

abandoned. dev got taken out by covid.
in other words: "i dont feel like doing this for free anymore, give me money or dont get anymore content"
Alright, just offer is a price here, this is one of the only ways I know I can still pay, especially if i don't want an patreon subscription.

🙏🙏👍❤️
looks like the creator gave up on this game
OK hooked need more. Need to know what happens next. Great job.
game is obviously abandoned. 2 years since an update
Check out the oppaiman games store. The creator isnt posting any free updates anymore but he is still working on it.
Then he can start selling them here if he isn't like the other two I had recently, starting a new game and deleeting the old you payed for, or ...actuallly forgot how the other one here scammed me.
is ashley just a judy model????
very similar but this game was being created a year or two before Cyberpunk released, but who knows maybe they took inspiration from trailers or such

Thank you AZ for a great story and I look forward to every episode you put out.
I know there's an episode 11 where can Play it? I still say this would make a great TV series on HBO.
Patreon. The link is on this page
I'm looking forward to the Conclusion
Having trouble stuck in kissing scene with emily in bedroom after he wakes up next to her. Nothing I do advances the scene.
The extra short stories are also on another site revolving different points in between and afterwards
99% it's not being worked on again
Looks like this game won't see anymore updates here. They uploaded to another site https://www.oppaiman.com/ for episode 11 at a $10 price point at time of this posting.
Bro what its been years and theres no episode 12
Seems this is a dead game, nearly 2 years and no word from the dev.
Is the story of the game finished or is it still in development?
нет, и молчат все, всем всё похуй
Выпускайте 12 13 серию
Is there any Chinese language for this game? I'd like someone to reply to me
Сомневаюсь
Does anyone know when Episode 11 will be released?
Came out in June on the patreon page, dev is starting a second game and once the first episodes come out Halfway house will be released on steam and production of episode 12 will start.
А когда это будет примерно 12 эпизод?
Episode 12 hasn't started production yet probably won't release until July or so.
Это до какого года хотят её закончить? Походу в своей жизни я её не пройду
ah, thanks!
11 is out on other sites. Along with other additional content
What's the name of the other site?
How many Episodes are planned for this game?

Emily is a love path, most of her lewd stuff is chapter 8 and up and you have to have a lot of love points
Is this game going to come to steam?
