Awoo!~ Can’t wait for it!

Yeah, it’s no problem! I’m kinda having the same issue myself, but I keep getting Rune bottoming. I will experiment with my save, just to see what changes for Rune. And I was going through for Burry, you need to look for another way rather than using the bomb in the baths, and use it on the roof! Once you do that, (as Burry) you should get the option to either kiss or hug Luke. To get the scene, kiss, then it’ll start!

Okay, I am a bit unsure of the NSFW scene for Rune you want, but I presume the ending one. For that, yes, you need the crystal eye gem, go to lunch with Rune, and go to Rune’s class to fully start his route. Make sure to look at Rune’s mana balls in the morning first, (don’t whack him), so it will activate his lunch scene. In the baths, make sure to choose the “…jerked off to one of us here!” option in ‘Once Ago a Bad Boy…’ (never have I ever) for Rune’s path. Then keep going through the scene, and make sure you catch the crystal eye when Rune throws it to you! Keep going through Rune’s lore, and once back in the tower control room, you should be able to top/bottom with Rune, dependent on what you choose!

As for the bomb, as long as you input the right code, it should work! I’m still messing around, trying to find how to get Burry’s NSFW scene again, cause I haven’t seen it in almost 3 years… But to sum it up, as long as you do the option corresponding to the character, you should get their lore, path, and NSFW scene! I will get back to you for Burry’s asap! Also sorry for the wall of text, kinda hard to explain with so many intricate options!

I can try! But I will say, I haven’t read that part of the VN for EASILY a year at least..! Heck, I can try to lead you through, but it might be a bit difficult from the difference in save data.

I’d suggest going to YouTube or Spotify! It’s more ‘unnoficial’, since the OST was comprised of royalty-free music, but its on both of those! Also, highly suggest going to YT, cause its free and there’s half hour long versions of some songs!

Okay, fair. It does definitely feel like that from what I’ve seen from others. I just never felt that feeling during that scene. Literally all I thought was ‘Ooo~, Amicus and Neferu~! Oh shi-’, but I also never felt that romantic attraction to Amicus like most others, so I guess I just don’t see the true effect it had on most. Also never felt that “post-Adastra-depression” as others have, but that’s also probably just me.

Technically, yes. There’s Khemia and Interea, but I’d skip Interea, cause it’s not only unfinished, but its probably not going to be. Check out Khemia, its also not finished just yet, being updated whithin the next few months (probably), but it adds onto the narrative and characters a bit more!

Why are there so many comments whining about the ‘cheating’ in the story, when there isn’t? Amicus and MC/Marco don’t even get together till AFTER the second trial (If I remember right)! Besides, Amicus and Neferu do it for Marco’s safety, when Cato eventually went after MC/Marco later on. Remember what Amicus said, it’s like a trade, MC/Marco being safe for a quick fun time! But yes, Neferu was definitely a bit eager to get into Amicus’s pants at the start…

Yeah, fair. I definitely understand where you’re coming from about Howly, honestly feel bad for him being addicted. But I also want to know more about the world of Adastra and Khemia, with the characters, more art from Haps and the backgrounds from BlackSun/Stranj, also more music from Anthemics! Even then, just don’t buy their Patreon, cause that’s probably where he gets most of his drug money. And the Khemia update you were saying, we just got something from the Echo Proj earlier this month about WIPs and a progress update, and even more WIPs back in October! https://www.patreon.com/EchoGame If you scroll down, right before their TSM announcement.

Also, a bit off topic, this sounds exactly like the whole debacle with FNF a few years back with one of its devs.

Actually, Khemia is getting ready to be updated. Echo Project said both on their twitter and on their Patreon that, “With Arches complete, Howly and Haps are back to work on Khemia.” But I don’t know nor think that Interea is gonna be focused on anytime soon. Who knows with Echo Project right now, with all the stuff going on right now…

OH MY GOD, RYUO! WHY MUST YOU TORTURE US LIKE THIS WITH YOUR AMAZING STORYTELLING??? And the revelation(s), it makes so much sense now!

Hey Todd, hope you’re doing good! Just curious, is there any updates on if/when HyperCam may update? If not, please take care of yourself and don’t burn yourself out! Being in a bad mental state SUCKS, we’ve all been through it at least once! Hope you’re doing alright!

But it has been almost 2 years, and some are hoping for a possible update on the development of things. Thanks!

I mean it’s alright, needs sounds and music, also better art. (I know the hand drawn stuff is coming soon, but yeesh… AI art doesn’t look good for a VNs reputation nor consistency.) I do like the inclusivity and multiple options for each species, and how casually ‘lood’ it is. Keep going, and try to make your own sprites, even if its just pencil sketches. You’ll get it soon.

Oh my DOG I CAN’T BELIEVE I DIDN’T NOTICE THAT! Even though the pieces to it are ALL THERE, HE HAD TO SAY IT FOR ME TO NOTICE. DOGDAMNIT.

To say the least; AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

I loved this so much, and ecstatic for each update! The characters, the OST, the CGs, the writing and story, all so GOOD! One of the BEST VNs I’ve read, and probably my favorite! I’m VERY excited for Dryz!

Thank you for making Lyre!❤️

ARIIIII >:(

(spoilers)

The heck with the cliffhangers! AAAAA! I JUST WANT TOO SEE WHO/WHAT THAT WAS! The suspense during the last bit with Mar in the woods LITERALLY MADE ME SCARED WITH AND FOR MAR! Super good storytelling, and really liked the dreaming bit with Xiao! Great job!

I mean there is a dream sequence with him and Rune in almost that exact same situation~ (I don’t remember how to get it, I just remember that it involves them both)

Yes, there is quite a bit of NSFW. Both during and after the story for each route. So far, almost each main character has an NSFW scene, and it is very worth going back through and picking other options through each route, unlocking other versions of said scenes. Story is very good, and it has lots of good content! Heck, Rune likes to be lewd most of the time, so I suggest starting with him for NSFW content!

WOW. Once again, ABSOLUTELY AMAZING work on this chapter! I loved the last scene so much, instant shock when it shot! And the music in each scene made it all the better!!!

This is so good! I almost cried during one of the later scenes, and I rarely cry from VNs (Only Adastra, Shelter and Remember the Flowers so far)! Also I love Memento so much! His begging-like sprite creeped me out a bit, but that’s what you get from him being the Grim Reaper! And I see what you did there, Memento and Mori ;3

Adastra is finished, but they are working on Khemia and Interea, both being sequels to Adastra.

Now that Echo is done with Arches, they will be moving on to start updating Khemia as their main focus, and Interea being a smaller, side project which they’ll be updating less requently. I would suggest checking out their respective pages in the comments (Especially in Khemias)! They go into more detail about what Echo is doing.

He absolutely has! Also I agree with you on that question, I’m really wondering their what their motivation was!

WOW. I can’t actually believe what happened throughout this chapter! And WHY WITH ANOTHER CLIFFHANGER >:(. Can’t actually believe it was them! I thought it was someone else!

I honestly hope you do just as good here with future Lyre chapters! Also the sound blips for characters honestly really help out with understanding who’s talking, and what they’re voices sound like!

If you have enough space, download v30 while you still have v29 on your device, and just make sure your saves and progress transfers over! It should save just fine, even if you delete the previous version, but that’s how I make sure mine are good!

Are you using version 28, or version 29? V28 is the update that finished Rune’s route. V29 (only released on Raus’s Patreon) is the update that continues Max’s route.

You set the code when you deactivate the bomb in the morning. I guess you forgot it?

To make sure my saves are transferred, once a new update is released, I keep the previous version. After I make sure that my saves and unlocks are there in the new version, I delete the older. Example: v28 comes out, and I have v27 installed already. I install v28 and open it to check my saves, gallery, CGs, etc. Once I know everything is there, I delete v27. That’s how I’ve always done it, but it should save everything if you have previously had it on your device. (sorry I went so long…)

No problem! I check the Itch page almost daily so I can help anyone where I can. If you need help, just ask!

WOW. I haven’t read for a bit, so I thought it was a good time to hop back in to this story. Super excited for Part 2!! I have my eye on you Liz and Kadaj…

He is pretty old tho… :( dying only a year later if you save him…

It appears after Rune’s ending. Alon will congratulate you on getting another ending and give you an option to reset your save slots (deleting them in the process). I think it only appears once, when you first get the ending.

There is a way to do both. If you have already taken Alon’s bet and won, you should have an option to invite him without having to do his scene. If you have unlocked it, it would appear right after you activate the automatic shot for the cannon [Let’s give it a try!]. Another way of doing it (and I don’t really remember how to unlock it) is get another option to appear when you get ready to [Sit down with your friends], the option being [duck under the table] in EARLY MORNING. That is another way to get the gem. I can share my route (with the options only so it doesn’t spoil) if you would like!

No, you should be able to skip as long as you haven’t seen the scene already. I went through tested different choices, and as long as Rune has the gem after his Training session and throws it at you, you catch it, and Alon is there at the baths, you should get the scene. I also tested to see if it was because of who you choose to save, and that has no effect on the outcome of the scene, just the Ending scene right before the credits.

You should have gotten the ending then… I’ll do some testing and figure out if it might be something else going on!

You just have to make sure it doesn’t break! Catch it when Rune tosses it to you! If you have done everything else, that should get you there! And if you need anymore help, just ask.

What part do you need exactly? Do you still need to get the gem? Or is it during/after a specific scene like the baths or the rooftop?

You have to take the eye-gem to the baths with you. Burry should offer it to you when you get ready to leave the tavern. After that, just keep following Rune’s route and you should get it. Key difference that happens is when Rune uses the eye-gem (putting it in his closed eye), and his sprite will show a golden yellow eye on one side!

Have you tried to ask Alon for help? Maybe make a bet with him? ;3

Currently, no… But when Raus continues Max’s route, it will most likely be a choice!

Not yet. But in the next build there will be! If you get the gem for Rune at least!
