itch.io

Gotta love the sex spam across the site. I'm SURE it's not a scam or identity theft...

Should be in the letter you get in the bad end, same as all the first passwords.

Entirely fan made then and has never been apart of password. Password used to have NSFW for dean but was removed when Grizz decided sex was pulling focus away from the story.

Did the vid ony show NSFW for Dean?

Are you new here? 1 and a half years just means Hiddenwall's missed about 1 to 2 updates. Kingsguard was getting about 1 update like every 10 months. Missing for a year and a half due to uni and IRL stuff isn't exactly outlandish in light of how updates had come out before.

You need to do all the routes. Each character get;s their own unique one during the scavenger hunt.

I hope Shiuk is still on board after he pulled out being the artist for violet memoir, last thing this vn needs is for the artist to be to busy to work on it after it died for so long.

There was a patreon post yesterday. It's not dead, Hiddenwalls been swamped with Uni and IRL stuff.

Sprites are being worked on in the background but the artist Ghosty is dealing with IRL stuff so it's slow going/delayed

Yeah it was finished the ending ended up being split from the main thing in a seperate file if i remember right. 

badtimesstories-1.9_p, addon 1 and addon 2

also a 4 page mini comic about the rino.

Doesn't matter, someone will end up looking at the page wondering about updates so answering even if they don't care is still useful.

All the stories are pretty different, Tylos has many endings and a happy one too. Of the top of my head i remember a story of roommates finally getting together, a ghost lumberjack getting fucked as an exorsism, one with a tribal lion and another with a demon. Then theres the over arching thing with anubis.

It's fully done, has been for a while. It was on Chivo's patreon but it's down for review so i'm guessing it's going to be removed since Patreon is going all out on the 'no lewd' stuff, or at least 'no furry lewd'.

Oh a post from 2 months ago, good to know it's not dead after a year silence. Hope you're having a good winter so far.

Because it's done? At least the beta is, there wont be more work done on polishing it up till later. Grizz is currently working on 'the cat's meow'.

Is that a bug or wishful thinking?

Fair enough, but i did say you could just post a simple "Still working on it" rather then months of silence. I think i'm going to go down a rabit hole into how Itch posts work. Does it require something to be attached? Does mods or someone vet them and punish things they think are lackinig? Damn my curiosity, there goes the next few hours.

Thanks, i enjoy your work. But would it kill you to just post a status update on itch, even if it's just 'still working on it'? I'm honestly curious about it because no one seems to do it but the dev for Debtors and it doesn't sound like something hard or time consuming to do. But i've never created a project on itch, maybe they make you jump through hoops when you want to post something.

So there are no updates, but the project is still being worked on.

I fully understand that, but the original question was is this still getting updates. The recent response was yes. But there has been no updates or information for a very long time. Not even just a message saying not dead just busy. It's something that seems common on itch.io that Devs just NEVER post simple status updates. There're fans here waiting but having no signs of life just makes things look very dead and cancelled as is sadly common with furry VNs. So i was asking where the information is so i know where to look and since it was said "for the game to release" that sounds like the WHOLE game released all at once, so i was asking for clarification.

Edit just to add, If Drakes is still working on it that would be the VN being worked on, not an update. So that again just adds to my confusion.

Can i ask where it's getting updates? It doesn't seem to be either on patreon or itch. I also haven't found anything saying Drakes going to write everything for the entire thing and release it all at once. So i'm a little confused.

No idea, i don't use discord much, think i only made one at first because of taven of spear. But two people joined 1/10/24 so there must be a link somewhere out there.

The discord update channel hasn't had a post since 16/1/24 and it was a warning about hacked accounts and people following dodgy links. The last time someone joined the discord was 20/8/24.

To get on other paths you miss passwords usually and the X's mean a character is now dead. Also all paths are complete in this build. A is the true end of the game, the other paths are bad ends and such.

Also the password is said by one of the characters on the day, The vault gives you a clue where to look when you go to enter it.

It's an easter egg that's been removed. It was 'the end' i think. Now it just force closes password.

Considering the last time hidenwall mentioned trying to get an update out was in december, i dont know where you got that idea from. Also don't know for sure but the next public build will probably be the current patreon build which is build 1.06 Leandros chapter 9.

I'm confused, what do you mean? Sal isn't Flora's kid. Ozwin is Flora's brother, or she's the adopted sister (it's been a while since i played through so i might be misremembering the adoption thing, but she is Oswins sister). Flora married a rabbit (i think he's a rabbit) thats why she's Flora Sinclair and not Flora Hammond. If you're talking about benson, he's still the family servant even if he did pretty much all the parenting as if he was the hammond childrens father.

Well i'm not sure all the details and wont say all i know since it's spoilery but the sequal is called syndicate and will be investigating something involving the police, and at least two of passwords cast i know will be involved for sure.

There will be a sequal but its set some time after password and wont have Dave in it, or at least last it was mentioned he wouldn't even have a camio. I'm not sure what you mean by Dave's dad not being dead, because he is, the only times he isn't is in the alternate timelines.

If you need something kingsguard related while you wait there's this thing: https://play.aidungeon.com/scenario/843netkCEUL6/kingsguard-vn

its free, no downloads and just plays in the browser. It has some issues, ramos's personality is odd with him knowing who you are even if it's the first time you've met him or being overly romantic. But i don't think it's that bad, leandros is pretty good. If you want it smutty, when you're playing click the little gear in the top right and change the the safety setting in the gameplay tab.

Hiddenwall mentioned trying to get a build out over winter holidays since school would be out, but i guess that things ended up getting in the way as they've paused their patreon payments and have been silent for the last few months.

They haven't been put in yet Ghostlink is still working on them

The cg's aren't done yet, currently Grizz is working on the dean rewrite. But if you're thinking of playing the itch.io version it isn't currently being updated while Grizz works on getting everything finished up. The itch.io version is the complete BETA version. All updates are currently just on patreon that you can get access to for £1 a month.

this is from october so i think its okay to post but yeah the sprites are going great

Didn't expect to talk about this in a comment section, but i get it. I got depression and severe anxiety, but one of the ways i've been told to help with it is 'imagery techniques'. which is just building another place you can experiance in your head and thinking about what you could smell, hear or see there. I normally just use aidungeon.com to help with that, since its like DnD but with an ai dungeon master and can be quite absorbing into other worlds or characters. Like one of them i can be in the beastars universe and can do anything i want like run a black market stall or befriend anyone i feel like. Though melon did fuck me up a bit, guess i cant just walk over and say 'hi' to a psychopath.

damn this just makes me sad, rip four letter word and crescendo
