Hi, everyone! The latest progress report is finally here !

Really excited right now since the game's story starts to fall into place. I can finally see how Volga's story will end. Now that we have the beginning and a clearer ending, I'll have to work on bridging the beginning and the end of the game together.

I'm still recovering from the cold. Hopefully I'll get better soon since I can't wait to work more on the game! x_x

I'm actually dissapointed that Tharsix and Cyrus won't have their own split timelines, it would have been interesting to see how each character develops in their own "good timeline" after winning. Would one character let the glory of winning the coliseum get to them, or would they use their reward for good? It sounded like a good realm for character development in the long-run to show how they would react to different situations. For example, if we play as Tharsix and defeat Volga in the coliseum, how would he react to the embarrassment of losing and being sexually humiliated and not be able to get the money to take care of the kids back at home. If one were to talk with him and date him, it'd be very interesting to talk with him, and perhaps even look towards helping him financially. It was the things like that I was hoping to see in the future of this game I guess.

I understand what you mean. We're sad about the decision, as we have prepared the storyline for each character's timeline as well as how the character will grow at the end of their respective story. Still, one has to make a sacrifice. Perhaps if we have more budgets and more people to help, I'll be able to create those alternate timeline stories in the future. But for now, we think it'd be better to focus on Volga's story and make it as best as we can. - Punipen

Hang on, so if you can no longer play as Cyrus or Tharsix in the tournament, how can you see Volga's punishment scene at all? Is it now going to be whenever he loses a battle in the coliseum?

The long punishment scene will now be his game over scene. Whether this will replace his short game over scene or both scenes will be in the game is not final yet. We'll let you know once me make the final decision. - Punipen

Great report~!:D How is impolite among Volga and punisher?

Whireds

Great! That story decision is good one in my opinion. It will also make it so that the games content doesn’t look reused. Also I’m sure many people will be happy that They can Now romance any of the other fighters. Thanks for a great report again!

I can't see the reports, but there seems to be talk of a big change here in the comments. Can someone explain?

I STRONGLY DEMAND NO BLINDFOLD VARIATIONS OF AQUILO'S CGS. Anyway, I'm looking forward to see you on the Kemoket. Hope you guys won't be late or absent.

So you want this project to be over so bad your cutting the other two routes? I thought we had something special!! Just kidding! Mildly disappointing to hear about the routes, though I was kind of getting the feeling something like this would happen. Anyway keep up the good work and feel better soon.

For now you need to make a Tumblr account, since they no longer allow non-Tumblr user to access a blog with adult contents. - Punipen

Reused contents was definitely one of our concerns. We have to make some sacrifices, but we hope that doing this means any new additional contents will be something refreshing. - Punipen

I for one really like the idea of the story being streamlined down into a single canonical route, since you have decided to add the ability to date all the other gladiators. I feel that the original scope of the game, while tantalizing, was perhaps a bit too grand for such a small team to pull off, and that this will indeed make the game easier to complete. All in all, I think this is a good decision, and one that will lead to a better game. I know it cannot have been easy to walk the scope of the project back, but I applaud you for doing so in spite of that difficulty. Thank you all for your hard work.

Bit of a mixed bag here. On the one hand I do like the idea of one all inclusive route and several different options for story direction and romance choices, but having multiple playable characters is always nice to see things from multiple perspectives and different outlooks on events as they transpire. Overall I still think this is the best option given how everything has progressed up until now, and I'm glad you guys are still open to the possibility of revisiting the other characters sometime down the line if things go well. Another option you may consider going with if time and resources allow is rather than adding more full individual character routes maybe include something like an arcade mode where you pick your character and play through a shorthand version of the tournament, fighting each other gladiator in turn and having maybe a beginning, middle, and ending scene that tells their story and motives for entering the tournament and possibly a "what if" scenario that would show an idea of what happens if they won the whole tournament. Just something to consider at any rate. I do like the new battle animations and backgrounds too, add a sense of theatricality and mystique to the fights. I am definitely looking forward to seeing where the story and game progress from here. Keep up the good work guys, and hope you all feel better soon.

Sounds well promising, looking forward to test it some time

I agree that making a single all inclusive storyline was pretty daunting, if not impossible, so i think this was probably the best decision, especially given that it does give you a lot more options in plot direction and dating options. It'd also make the possibility of new future storylines much easier. But...for Volga's second punishment sketch, idk, looks really busy, would like to see more of volga in his own punishment scene, seems like there is just so much going on in there, hard to make out what is going on or how he is reacting, think it'd be better if it was less cluttered and more focused on the punishments effect on him

kemocoliseum

Yeah, I have the same thought. The idea behind that is for other characters, the CGs focus on them already so for Volga we want something to show that it's an orgy. We also want him to be both topping and bottomming at the same time, experiencing everything all at once. But I agree that there seems to be many things going on and it's hard to focus. After Kemoket we'll discuss about this again whether we can do something about it or it's going back to the drawing board >_

kemocoliseum

The arcade mode sounds very interesting, actually! Maybe providing players with all the available skills and armor bonuses, but give them a limited amount of money for each stage might turn out to be an interesting quick play mode. I'll pin this idea on the board for now and come back to it once the game's done :D I'm glad you like those new effects & backgrounds! Really really can't wait for the game to progress to that point but since it's going to be a while, I decided I should just work on that before the visual in my head faded away. - Punipen

kemocoliseum

Thank you! It definitely was a difficult choice to make, but, like you, I believe this is for the best for the game. I hope you'll enjoy the final product! - Punipen

I'm new here. Since I didn't follow the development progress up until now, I am indifferent about the change in story. But I like the idea of being able to date every fighters. Keep up the good work!!!

I personally think I would rather having a polished route and extra stories than having three routes with changed dialogue. Look forward to seeing how they go from here.

Wow sounds like lots of progress is being made that’s wonderful can’t wait to test it out when the time comes and hope you guys feel better
