This update adds Sydney the Faithful. They're a hardworking student, temple initiate, and love interest. It also adds a new option to stalk encounters, among other mechanical improvements.
Sydney assists the school librarian, and manages the new shop. They can also be found at the temple, performing their duties or simply in prayer. However, something lurks beneath their straight-laced exterior, waiting to be coaxed to the surface. Most love interests' behaviour changes depending on how you interact with them, but Sydney goes further.
NPC virginities are now tracked. This is important for Sydney as their purity is particularly relevant, but it applies to other characters as well. Many NPCs begin the game with one or more virginities already taken, depending on their experience. NPCs can now also wear chastity belts, though only those at the temple don them currently.
This was a much shorter gap between updates than normal, but PurityGuy has been working on Sydney for months. Making a character with so much interactivity is difficult, and no other love interest has debuted with this much content. A huge thanks to PurityGuy for his hard work!
Big thanks to the other contributors as well, including Lollipop Scythe, who's been busy under the hood, preparing future content and mechanics.
On another topic, I've added the "Confront" ability to stalk encounters, which forces the phase to end at once, but increases the chance of an assault. I wanted to include it last update, but pushed it back for time. I'm broadly happy with how the mechanics have been received, but there's lots of room for improvement. Thanks for the feedback everyone!
Next update will add the prison.
Edit: Updated to 0.3.3.2, fixing bugs.
Edit 2: Updated to 0.3.3.3, fixing more bugs.
Edit 3: Updated to 0.3.3.4, fixing further bugs.
Edit 4: There's a problem with history controls in the current version, and setting them higher than 1 can break saves made at a shop or wardrobe. It's set to 1 by default, and hopefully isn't an issue for most. Sorry for the bother.

Could you turn up the rate of the school locker room event, I only got it once and had to restart that character during an update...
ReplyDeleteAlso love the new update btw can't wait for all the kinks to get worked out so I can download it, been here since the first version this is great!
DeleteMost of the kinks should be worked out now!
DeleteI might expand the school locker events, and make them trigger more often. Thanks for the feedback. I'm glad you like the update.
DeleteThanks for responding to people Puri!
This comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteWelp, time to protect another npc
DeleteThey'll protect you in turn.
DeleteGood luck!
DeleteNoice second comment btw thanks for the fast update vrel love you
ReplyDeleteVrel loves you too, he's just busy at the moment.
DeletePuri is right. Thanks Ryan.
Deletebig chungus
ReplyDeleteCan we get more QoL cheats?
ReplyDeleteMore QoL cheats are planned. Specifically, I still need to do cheats for NPC virginities. Perhaps I should add NPC chastity cheats too.
Deleteif you're planning to tweak the cheats, my recommendation would be to add a button to drain all arousal/Raise it by 60%. I know the ruin/restore options already do that to some extent but they affect all stats and go to the extremes. Being able to quickly decide whether to drain or fill your arousal with just one click would be appreciated, given how often I had to spam the max options to adjust it myself haha.
DeleteAlso, another useful addition would be the option to spawn items. While most items can be bought straight after starting the game, a few of the pesky ones, like the hidden shop and especially all the gags/restraints can only be obtained after a lot of hours in a character and aimless searching/rape encounters. Quite annoying. An easy route for filthy cheaters like me would be greatly appreciated.
DeleteAnother update so soon?! What a joyous day!
ReplyDeleteIt is indeed a joyous day. Vrel will return tomorrow after he gets a good night's rest.
DeleteI am rested!
DeleteI hope you enjoy it Your Holiness.
You love to see it, good job as always vrel!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for playing, Nyoom.
DeleteThanks Nyoom. I've had lots of help!
DeleteBig thanks to you and all the contributors for this update.
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you for playing!
DeleteNo problem Groot Beast.
DeleteI just want to suggest that wearing a chastity cage/belt should increase Lust over time as long as you have awareness.
ReplyDeleteThat's a pretty good idea.
DeleteIt is a good idea. Thanks for sharing.
DeleteWow that was fast!
ReplyDeleteMay I ask if more clothes or more combat sprites are Planed in the near-ish future? (be it encounters or clothes)
I know they take a long time to do but it would be refreshing to see some new!
Either way, great updates, cant wait for the prison
More combat sprites are in the works. I'll have to bother a certain contributor to finish up the long pants combat sprites.
DeleteI'm glad you like the updates!
DeleteLike Puri says, more combat sprites are in the works. I don't plan for every item to have unique sprites, just as there are so many, but more would be better.
That was quick! Looking forward to make some more icons for the game in general! If someone has suggetions on which things need some icons just comment it pls :D
ReplyDelete-SleepDage
Your icons were much appreciated!
DeleteThanks SleepDage!
DeleteA surprise to be sure, but a welcome one
ReplyDeleteSurprise Mechanics™
DeleteCan you add a fairy tf
ReplyDeleteI don't believe a fairy tf is planned at this time, but it's a fun idea.
DeleteIt's on the maybe pile.
Delete"Books can now be rented from the school library for a passive gain to a school stat. Make sure to renew or return them in time."
ReplyDeleteGive it to me straight, doc. I'm gonna be sexually assaulted for not returning my library books on time, aren't I? I always knew it'd one day come to this.
Heck of a fast one, Vrel. And after I'd just given up the Angel TF on my last character. Ah well, no harm in another. Good luck on the prison, looking forward to it. Got myself a master thief style character I'm working on that'll enjoy it. Or won't. Either way.
You might not be sexually assaulted, but you might be punished in a different way.
DeleteWe have Puri and other contributors to thank for the speed of this one.
DeleteI hope you enjoy the prison when it's ready.
I keep getting an error when loading. It is saying "Error: unexpected token ■ in JSON at position 0." Except that the square is filled with white instead of black.
ReplyDeleteOh, and I am using Chrome for my browser.
DeleteThanks for the heads up, will look into it.
DeleteSorry for the trouble.
DeleteThere should be more option like making named NPCs also have both gentiles, also make some simple character looks to named NPCs to kinda how we look in the game, also I think that you should have parasite harder to remove.
ReplyDeleteHerm NPCs is still in the cards.
DeleteThanks for your thoughts Anon.
DeleteI'm not against tougher parasites, though I don't want the more common ones to be too difficult to dislodge.
What if I told you, you can be the top with Sydney already?
ReplyDeleteJust wanna let you know, it seems that npcs can do this cool magic trick where they can take off the pc's underwear without removing their shorts first lol
ReplyDeleteDamned ghost hands!
DeleteV-very Fast!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the update. <3
Get enough rest. <3
I'm english is bad ;-;
Your English is alright. Thank you for playing!
DeleteNo problem <3
DeleteI've had a night's rest, and I'll be sure to take care!
I'm very glad! Vrel appreciated that, too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind words, anon, and for the suggestions.
ReplyDeleteHey Vrelnir and Purity, great update, and I'd love to play it, but I've come here for questions.
ReplyDeleteI've been noticing that the past few updates all of my older save files have been... broken. All the animations on every encounter and even daily life (ie the Status Portrait/Area Backgrounds) and even the fix animations only serves as a stopgap measure, sometimes. It fixes the animation for the turn, but then it reverts back to a frozen/broken state on the next. Sometimes, it doesn't even fix it at all (X-rays tend to suffer the most here) and just remains stuck no matter how many times I press the F button (reloading doesn't help either).
The older my files, the worse it becomes, especially on my oldest Male PC. Even new files only work "fine" the first few hours, I've encountered these animation glitches even on blank slate characters who are playing on the first or second day of September. These glitches persist in both my PC and mobile versions, which share save files (I just update them back and forth)
Another problem is saving itself. Especially on mobile, it simply does not let me save;
"Error: localStorage quota exceeded.
Stack Trace: Error: Failed to execute 'setItem' on 'Storage':
Setting the value of 'degrees-of-lewdity.ssaves exceeded quota.
at e.value
(file///android_asset/www/Degrees%20of%20Lewdity.html:357322:15474)

Is the only solution to delete everything and start over? Making new characters doesn't seem to help much. I have plenty of space on my phone and PC (several GB).
Thank you for your work as always, hope to be able to play new update soon!
That's a scary looking error. For the animations, I can only recommend using something other than Chrome. As for the mobile saving bug, I'm not too sure. Some older mobile devices have had trouble with DoL lately.
DeleteI've tried using Chrome, Microsoft Edge and Firefox. Nothing works. I'm basically unable to play the game properly any more. Its either a painful broken mess or straight up unresponsive, and its just not fun to play when you cant even save anymore. I'm really considering just deleting everything relating to DoL and starting from scratch. Its a shame, since my oldest PC has been through many ingame months, and is the most developed.
Delete"Quota Exceeded" means that there's not enough local storage allowed to make a new save (it's usually restricted to 5mb per site). most likely caused by having the history setting set to a very high value (having it at 20 means your saves are now 20 times bigger). It is estimated that values above 5 have a potential to exhaust the 5mb of local storage when all 9 save slots are filled.
DeleteLike Puri says, that looks like a problem with the game using too much local storage, which is where normal saves are kept. DoL is allocated a limited amount. Deleting some of your save files might help. Export backups first!
DeleteI don't believe that would solve the other problems though. Sorry for the trouble.
Great update, I already love Sydney and I've joined the temple just for them. Can't wait for the next update!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I started a new game for this update and my Swimming stat has a '-10%' in brackets below it, I've had this randomly happen before with another pc so I'm pretty sure this is a bug.
I'm glad you enjoy them! A swimming debuff can be caused by your attire or "moor luck". Most often, a debuff is caused by inappropriate footwear. I'll be sure to look into any erroneous cuses,though.
DeleteThat's great to hear! Thanks for the response Puri.
DeleteI've just started this playthrough though, all my pc wears is the school uniform with the school shoes, not sure what "moor luck" is but I'm gonna assume it's not that since I haven't been to the moor yet (if it even has anything to do with the moor). As I said it's happened randomly before with an old pc after an update even though they didn't change clothes or shoes etc.
DeleteDayum. I came to check if there's a new update, then almost closed the page when I remembered how recently the last one came. This is an amazing surprise. Great job on the update, I'm still working out the new NPC (my save was just before winter holidays, damn), but so far they seem great!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy!
DeleteThank you, that's good to hear!
DeleteThe formatting of the options at the Farm is all Borked, especially during the night.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the heads up.
DeleteThanks for the update.
ReplyDeleteWhere is the save data for Degrees of Lewdity located? I suddenly lost all my saves...
That depends on which platform you're playing on. You should backup your saves by choosing the export option, as they'll be deleted whenever temporary files are cleared.
DeleteThanks for the response b12481632. Default saves are located in your browser's cache, which isn't easily accessible, and can be wiped by clearing your cookies.
DeleteWoo! Another update! Thanks to everyone who's working on this, seriously.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a while, and so far, loving the new map as well as being able to take the book home instead of needing to sneak into the school~
"Winter has mentioned some items missing from the museum" has popped up in my journal. Problem is I've collected everything for the museum already. Also, I don't have the option to sell my strange flowers at the factory.
You're welcome! I'm glad you like the changes.
DeleteThe factory won't take strange flowers, but I might add another lucrative use for them.
Is it possible to use the strange flowers at the cafe by putting in on the buns as decoration that up demand? Or even give an npc a flower to up their lust a tad? Maybe use them during photoshoots with Leighton, or helping Harper collect more aphrodisiacs? Possibly even in the prayer room to accidentally summon a tentacle monster?
DeletePurityGuy: Definitely loving Sydney so far~ Beats Winter and Wren as my favorite npc! Definitely enjoying more Temple content at that~ (Forcing my character to be chaste to spend time with Sydney v.v)
animations seem to be frozen on mine, even after using the fix button in the options.
ReplyDeleteI think I figured it out. somehow the setting for it was toggled off when switching from the previous version to this one.
Delete"it" being CSS animations, both sidebar and combat. were those adjusted in this update?
Delete"An update has been released! Praise the Lord"
ReplyDeleteAmen!
DeleteFor the spa. can someone add job events with serving and swimming with patrons in the pools? I would love that!
ReplyDeleteI agree that would be cool.
Deletemy PC is currently in summer break, will he be able to meet Sydney or does he have to wait until school starts?
ReplyDeleteYou should be able to find Sydney at the temple.
DeleteSpecifically, if you haven't met the yet, you'll need to attend mass on Sundays. That will cause them to be active in the temple.
DeleteI'm back! It's been a while since my old phone broke and I lost my previous DoL playtrough and saves.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see the game keeps improving and that you still hears our suggestions Vrel (the book rental was an idea that some people including me suggested when the 3star system at school grades were still fresh), you and your collaborators never cease of amaze me.
I don't know if there is already implemented into the game but can I make a suggestion? Make a friendship/rivalry out of Kylar and Robin interactions.
I know how hard is to write scenes that involve various love interest but the Kylar/Whitney hostility towards each other during their shared scenes proves that it can be possible to make and polish over time.
And I also know that Kylar's jealousy and the personalities of those two wouldn't make it possible a friendship between Kylar and Robin at first, but they have a couple of things in common:
• Both of them really like videogames
• Both of them are quite smart and good at academics
and of course:
• Both of them are fond of our PC
It can begin with scenes where they acknowledges each other, for example: Kylar can butt in while talking with Robin about videogames at lunch, resulting in a pleasant conversation between the three of us, or Robing mentioning that he is not doing very well in a certain subject at class, and with Kylar overhearing everything and offering some advices. These scenes would continue until they both sit together to wait for us to have lunch from time to time and can go even further with Robin inviting Kylar to their room to play videogames or Kylar having a joint study session with them after school.
That should do it, if it weren't for us being the love interest of both. As the days go by we could notice how the tension increases between them and begin to wring for our attention, making surrepticious moves to endear to us and keeping their rival at bay. With high promiscuity and having both of them as love interests they couldn't fully accept that you have feelings for the other person but respects your wishes ... which doesn't mean that we are going to have a love triangle, because the next objective of both Kylar and Robin would be to make their rival withdraw, teasing them during dates: Robin could suggest having a date at the park or the arcade simply to rub us in Kylar's face (wow, that sounds so improper for Robin😅), and Kylar doing the same having a walk at the beach with us and ending it in Robin's lemonade stand.
At last, with a high jealousy rate and having Robin as one of the love interest would trigger a different version of the kidnapping event but with Kylar kidnapping Robin instead of us and leaving Robin traumatized as their missing event after the rescue.
Anyway, it's been so long that I don't remember if I already suggested this before, but if it wasn't me, I'm pretty sure that someone has already made a similar request. As always thanks in advance Vrelnir, I hope you like my contribution after a long time and I apologize if suddenly the message doesn't have much coherence: in my country it is already after 2am and I am sleepy😴
It's nice to hear from you. Thanks for your thoughts. I'm glad you like the changes!
DeleteMore interactions between the love interests would be cool, though their shared interest in the PC lends more to rivalry than to friendship. I like the idea of Kylar kidnapping their rivals a lot.
Thanks again. I hope you sleep well!
I'm all in for the Kylar/Robin "friendly-ish" interactions ! As it stands, I believe the game is meant to represent how a singular person can survive in this hell of a town, but also how they're able to shape it into something more. The Fame stats, the impact on the Orphanage, on Alex's farm... Ultimately, I believe the "end" of this game will take into account the way you bettered or worsened the town's situation. As such, it makes sense that we'd be able to help Love Interest get along, sort their problems out and this kind of stuff.
DeleteIt's mostly wishful thinking, however.
You're right that I'd like any endings to reflect the impact the PC's decisions have had on the town, as well as on themselves.
DeleteIMHO the main strength of the game is atmosphere, narrative, depiction of characters, variety of events and combat system. My jaw hit the floor when I first discovered this game. It's amasing! Though combat system is already good as it is, I hope it won't be bloated by excess functionality too much.
ReplyDeleteThank you, I'm glad you're enjoying it!
DeleteNew actions need to be tied into the game's mechanics and atmosphere. Combat should feel like a struggle, and there's a risk of losing that if I'm not careful.
good update dol team, especially PurityGuy for Sydney, also first time see you reply to coment.
ReplyDeleteNo problem. Puri's been active in the community for a long time, but this might be the first time he's commented on the blog.
DeleteAye, thanks for playing!
DeleteLike Puri says, this should already be possible. I'd like to add more actions to direct NPCs during consensual encounters in general as well.
ReplyDeleteAye, thanks for your thoughts Anon. You're very welcome.
ReplyDeleteWow i didnt expect an update this fast , thank you vrelnir
ReplyDeleteEnjoy!
DeleteNo problem!
DeleteThe big question.... can we get Sydney into bondage... and then be tied up and milked by a sexy nun?
ReplyDeleteBeen following this game since its intial release and you've never disappointed Vrel. Very much looking forward to Sydney expansions in the future. Love the work of all the contributors too. You guys all rock!!
There's no milking content for Sydney just yet, but there is a little bit of bondage content. You'll just need to find it!
DeleteIt's great to hear you've been enjoying the game so long Blana. Thank you for the kind words!
DeleteYou chat with Sydney. "Have you heard the rumours around Doren?" she asks. "Some students believe she's a werewolf." She shakes her head. "Doren's a perfectly respectable teacher. I don't know what compels people to spread such awful ideas."
ReplyDeleteYeah, why would that be the case. ;)
A mystery for the ages.
DeleteDoren has quite the roar.
DeleteYou'll need to make sure they have lots of love and lust as well. Then, try and goad them into sexual encounters. Higher promiscuity will help with this.
ReplyDeleteWhat a quick update ! Literally did a double take :L
ReplyDeleteThanks for the awesome game :)
Thanks for the kind words, Lee!
DeleteNow that update sure comes as a very welcome surprise! Awesome! :D
ReplyDeleteGotta start a new playthrough yet again, lmao, I really hope I am not misleading myself here, but to me the notes sound as if Sydney has a big chonk of content to explore, which I am definitely curious for.
Thanks a lot for not waiting with this addition, you could have easily waited for the regular cycle and we would not have even noticed, lol.
As usual my best regards to you & your team, Vrel, hope you're all doing awesome. Special thanks to PurityGuy, if you'd be so kind as to deliver them.
p.s. should I join the temple to get the full Sydney experience or is that not needed?
Joining the temple will help you with Sydney a lot. Thanks for playing!
DeleteThat's kind of you to say Anon. There was more than content ready to justify an update, so I wanted to go ahead with it.
DeleteI'm doing well thank you! Enjoy.
excuse me, but the content of pregnancy, after how many updates will there be, if not a secret?
ReplyDeleteMy lips are sealed.
DeleteHello, can you consider adding more ocean content?
ReplyDeleteWe will consider it!
DeleteIt's planned, but not soon.
DeleteI'm a bit sad that you decided Whitney wasn't a virgin (since I have her as female). Any chance this could be changed? Or at least kept vague/unknown
ReplyDeleteThe idea of Whitney still being a virgin is pretty funny, actually.
DeleteI'll consider changing it.
DeleteI agree, it would be really great if they were. It also would be kinda neat subversion of expectations, also it fits in my book cause the really lewd stuff comes after already pretty much submitting to them, so it seems fathomable no one else has really agreed to being treated the way Whitney wants to treat their special someone.
Deletecan you please add to the cheat menu the ability to "freeze" characteristics like stress or fatigue?
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a reasonable change.
DeleteTwo interesting transformations would be the mermaid/triton and slime girl/boy
ReplyDeleteThanks for the ideas!
DeleteThank you for the update as always, you all are doing a superb work !
ReplyDeleteWould it be possible to have a "randomize" option to the character creation menu ? Sure you can choose a bit randomly yourself or throw dice or something, but having the game itself doing it would be cool.
It could be just for the physical aspect of the character or could also have the option to randomize the others settings ?
Maybe it could also be a quickstart/difficulty settings ? Locking the game at the chosen difficulty and not having the choice to choose the PC characteristics ?
I'm more talking about the physical traits (height, sensitivity, gender,...) than the look but it could works for the appearance too for thoses who don't care.
I don't have a clear finished idea myself so food for thoughts ;)
Thank you again for your hard work guys !
I like the idea of a randomize option. Thanks for the ideas!
DeleteThanks, and you're welcome!
DeleteA randomise option would indeed be cool.
You chat with Sydney. "Have you heard the rumours around Doren?" he asks. "Some students believe he's a werewolf." He shakes his head. "Doren's a perfectly respectable teacher. I don't know what compels people to spread such awful ideas."
ReplyDeleteBruh, werewolf daddy?
They're just rumors! I hope.
Deletehey! great additions to the game, but i was wondering if you're planning on adding sex toys to the game soon? And, also a sex shop where you could buy them. It'd be a great addition since, well, the only method to play with yourself is using a finger(Only one) and it'd be a great way to play your partner, too
ReplyDeleteAlso, are ou perhaps planning on adding the ability to play with yourself during sexual encounters with other npc's? I've been thinking about those for a while.
Sex toys are planned.
DeleteI'm glad you like it.
DeleteI'd like to incorporate masturbation into regular encounters at some point. While dancing as well.
That was a fast one. Count me impressed, I'll start playing it right now. Thx for yet ANOTHER update.
ReplyDeleteNasdrovia Vrelnir and team.
Thanks, Gabranth. Hope Basch is doing well.
DeleteNo problem! I hope you like it.
DeleteCheers.
My god that was really fast!!! Thank you Vrel and thank you PurityGuy ❤️. I already love the new NPC
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you for playing!
DeleteYou're welcome!
DeletePurity guy is the goat
ReplyDeleteI'm not a goat, I'm an angel! Thanks, guy.
DeleteCould you add on the mannequin scene make it where your MC can be taken somewhere and can’t move anything and turned into sex Toy and gets used like one and they can’t move
ReplyDeleteI like this idea.
DeleteI'd like to include more mannequin scenes. Not sure if they'll branch off the existing sequence or be separate.
Delete"Gloryholes will once again require promiscuity 4 to enter."
ReplyDeleteHow is that a "fix"? The lower gloryhole promiscuity requirement had been listed as a feature, one I know I wasn't alone in enjoying. According to 3.2's post, it was a change made by Annon173, but in this update, it was undone by braymann. Is there a contributor war going on? I really don't understand. Vrelnir, please help maintain consistency.
Also, Alex's Farm options are a bit better, but their formatting is still kinda broken at night, look at "Clear the yard" and "Rest near the stables" in this screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/dnUpxxm
Thanks for your time.
Vrel doesn't always have time to manage the contributor's, that's typically my job. This slipped by me, though, Apologies.
DeleteSlipped by me as well.
DeleteThanks for the heads up and screenshot.
Hi Vrel/Purity Guy
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if we can remove Sidney's chastity belt and have sex with her? I can't find any option for the moment
You can. You need high love, lust, and corruption/purity, and then you need to get in a few sexual encounters with them. High promiscuity will help with this.
Deletehey! just wondering, are there any plans to add the option to make the pc trans in the future (pronouns differing from their genitals)? i dont know how that'd affect cross-dressing or how hard it'd be to implement, so just figured i'd ask!
ReplyDeleteIt's on the maybe pile. The basics would be easy enough to add, but we'd need to work out how NPCs should perceive the PC's gender.
DeleteCan things go any further with Sydney? Love is at 100%, lust is at 100%, purity is at 1% and won't go any lower but nothing is really happening, they said they got their anal shield removed but there was nothing to do with that information, everything has stayed pretty much the same, I really love this character and was hoping to see more of the content to do with what's lurking behind their straight-laced exterior. Is this as far as it goes right now or does purity need to be higher, or do I need to remove my pcs chastity belt?.....Do I need to return books late?
ReplyDeleteThere's much more yet. Certain events can replace their purity stat with corruption, and you need either high purity or high corruption to take it further with Sydney.
DeleteHah, went on the game after reading this and an event happened pretty much straight away :D
DeleteI think Kylar might be body writing a bit too much. They tried 3-4 times in a consensual encounter at the orphanage.
ReplyDeleteNamed NPCs might need tweaks on the rate they can do it.
DeleteThanks for the feedback Anon.
DeleteHold on, the new named npc is a innocent and pure soul? Heh, my succubus mc will love to break them down >:)
ReplyDeleteHave fun!
DeleteYo Vrelnir, i found this a similar (most likely stolen) game to DoL.
ReplyDeleteif you think it may be worth checking it out. here it is:
https://onerglossi.wordpress.com/2018/03/26/major-update-fst-0-5-2-0-end-week-events/
the latest upload is 2019 i think.
BTW, Love your game, keep doing a great job.
i think it's only similar in the interface due to the fact that degrees of lewdity is made with sugarcube and twine, which are free! from screenshots and comments it sounds like its... not at all similar, or stolen.
DeleteLike Fable says, it looks like they're also using SugarCube. It's quite popular. Thanks for informing me though.
DeleteI'm glad you're enjoying the game, and I'll do my best!
Will we be able to be a fallen angel by corrupt sydney in the future? Love the update but currently the prayer room is kinda cockblocking sydney from my girl...
ReplyDeleteYou can by having sex with Sydney outside the prayer room, just be prepared to face the consequences.
DeleteWow an update this quick! Thank you for you guys' hard work.
ReplyDeleteAlso apparently the game breaks if you get the acceptance: big penis trait and you tell Sydney what you're praying at the same time.
Should be fixed soon, thanks anon.
DeleteYou're welcome, and thanks!
DeleteSuper glad that micro dicks were added. But is it currently the case that micro dicks cum extra small amounts and that NPC's can notice and mock you about it? Further do micro dicks allow you to accrue insecurity about your small penis quicker/trigger small penis noticing events more often? Either would likely be a solid addition if you have the time.
ReplyDeleteAlso are we going to get even larger NPC cocks eventually? I remember some mentioning of making NPC's able to have horse sized cocks in the future but I don't know if it ever bore fruit.
Penis sized do need some more fleshing out. No pun intended.
DeleteThanks for your thoughts Anon.
DeleteCounterpoint, they should cum almost nothing and NPCs should tease you about it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the quick update
ReplyDeleteBtw will there be a another student npc for the science class or will it be sydney or will there be no npcs in science class?
Sydney is planned to make an appearance in science class.
DeleteNo problem.
Deletecan I ask all of the places you can see Sydney?
ReplyDeleteYou can find them at the temple and in the school library. You can take them elsewhere, though.
DeleteDo you have any promiscuity, deviant and exhibitionist actions at level 6?
ReplyDeleteI don't believe level 6 actions are in yet, but they are planned!
DeleteWill we ever get more pregnancy options? I'd like something for females in particular, especially in regard to beasts where depending on what came inside your womb, made it more compatible for their semen. Would be cute to lay eggs for Great Hawk or pups for Black Wolf.
ReplyDeletePregnancy is planned, aye.
DeleteThanks for the reply, and can I just say it is incredible the amount of work has gone into this game since the last update? Loving the activity and new arrivals/features, thanks for being so responsive and keeping interest growing.
DeleteI think the Temple Quarters might be broken, they never improve from being an "anarchic mess", even after spending an entire day just cleaning up and checking if maybe something changed the next day. Nope, it's still an anarchic mess. Taking care of the Gardens works fine though.
ReplyDeleteI'll look into it. Thanks for the heads up!
DeleteI love the fact that we have an angel to respond to us at least that helps vrel a bit .
ReplyDeletePs.thank you to all the contributors and especially puri keep the amazing work
You're too kind, Ryan.
DeleteAye! Thanks for keeping up with the comments Puri.
DeleteHello, it seems like I'm actually only playing 40% of the game all the time because I restart with every update. And I'm personally working on changing images (I like the art in this game, but it's fun to do this), It cause me to play with this game longer.
ReplyDeleteBut the fact that content I don't have access to is updated in the game excites me! Long live Vrel!(I'm using google translator, sorry.)
Thank you! I hope you enjoy the content when you find it.
DeleteIt's a shame that sex with Sydney in the prayer room is vague and up to the player's imagination since you REALLY don't know if you actually had sex or not because of the hallucinogens.
ReplyDeleteThat kinda dampened my excitement towards the new love interest but it was still fun regardless. Just not gonna be a primary love interest is all.
I am 99% sure there are quite some more situations where Sydney is sexable, but the entirety of their content seems to be interactive, variable and depending on many different stats to the point where it is just confusing. In a natural way, kinda, but it's such a difference to all other LIs.
DeleteAs I take it Sydney being the most complicated and hard-to-really-get Loveinterest is 1 of the downsides to them (all Romance Options have one, Robin the 2x Baily Payment thing, Whitney regularly abusing the player, Kylar being an outsider and also a psychopath if not handled correctly...)
I'm just a bit miffed that all other love interests are interpreted clearly that you are ACTUALLY performing coitus with them. While you have Sydney with just an illusion, which is I interpret, very orgasmic for the PC and Sydney but all of that is under the influence. Thus, not genuinely real. At least IMO.
DeleteI totally get you but I am saying that there are more scenes, I am starting all over again tonight but yesterday I reached the point where Sydney started to become desperate to have actual intercourse with my character. When going to buy a swimwear for her I got the option to join her in the cabin and the result was a real encounter, if I had managed to get rid of the chastity belt (admittedly I have yet to find out how to do that, not sure if it can be done during encounters (by force, the way NPCs can do it as well) but the patchnotes imply that could be 1 way, as do Sydney's own words.
DeleteAside from that scene there also is the oral scene in the Library but that ofc isn't the same. I've yet to discover if there are more opportunities to have sex with Sydney but I would guess so, going by PurityGuy's replies in the comment section here. It seems as if there are certain special moments that trigger randomly when conditions are met that advance things in regards to Sydney's chastity belt.
Things I did: I did not join the Temple, but tried to spent as much time as possible with Sydney, first advancing her love stat and then, at some point, I began to lower her purity, cause I went out of ideas how to advance things with her being pure.
Due to quite a bit of luck I managed to increase my character's promiscuity and exhibitionism to 4 without loosing any virginity, so purity was still maxed out, but I could initiate the "under the desk" encounter with Sydney in the Library, switching her stat from purity to corruption meter. The more her corruption raised the more straightforward she became, until she, as I explained at the beginning, started to get really annoyed by her chastity belt.
If I am not mistaken PurityGuy confirmed Sydney's belt can already be removed, and if this doesn't lock you out of going to the swimwear shopping with Sydney you should be able to initiate a proper encounter there if your character is primscuous enough. Not sure if Sydney already has to be corrupted a bit for that or not.
Also I can't guarantee that that scene can be accessed indefinitely, cause the options for clothes to buy go down with each of the 4 or 5 items picked.
I'm just a bit miffed that all other love interests have clear and concise sex while Sydney's is not genuinely real since it's under the influence of an aphrodisiac hallucinogen, thus, an illusionary sex act.
DeleteTrue, it's orgasmic for the PC and Sydney but again, it's not real.
Good evening, first of all thanks to both of you (dear Vrel & PurityGuy) for your replies, I started my new game yesterday, as I said, and I am really impressed and engrossed by Sydney, and ofc it's a little insane just how much content there is for them already, and a lot of it just perfectly blends in the game.
ReplyDeleteI do have a couple of questions though, cause I got a little confused by how things went/worked. I read through the comments here so I probably got some of my answers already, but since I will start all over yet again today (if I am lucky enough to still get a reply at this time) and I am a little scared to mess up things again.
First things first: In your reply you told me that I should probably join the temple cause it "helps a lot" with Sydney. I would be really grateful if you could elaborate on that, what do I miss out on by not joining the temple? (I have a great aversion against the people there so that, up to this day, is actually content I've never really explored, cause whenever I have to do with the Nuns I am pretty appalled, maybe it's me not being a native speaker but the way I understand the stuff makes me feel as if the temple people are among the most unforgivable pieces of trash, even kinda en par with the likes of Leighton and Bailey. Part of that might be the fact that I live under the impression joining the temple, de facto, comes with nothing but disadvantages and makes the game even harder and more depressing.) Do I miss out on special scenes with Sydney but not joining the temple? If so I might force myself to do it for once and see what's there. (Sorry if this sounds like ranting, I really don't mind the temple being the way it is, but since I am weirdly uncomfortable with the little bits of stuff i saw happening there it really is not my cup of tea exploring the temple, or it wasn't up until now, cause Sydney makes up for a lot of things.
My second question is: How do I get Sydney to become the top in the relationship? I might it to the point where Syd starts to actually complain about being caged and that they want to penetrate the player character etc., Corruption began to go up pretty quickly, Sydney said something along the lines of "break the belt forcibly, be rougher with me", while her general behavior became a lot more forward and self assured, so I would assume I have to corrupt her for her to top my pc? If so that is totally fine by me, but I must admit I did not even intend to corrupt her from the start, it more like happened when going for the "under desk" option in the library, which I picked out of desperation, cause things did not advance after 2hs of nonstop trying to advance the relationship without being like that. (For roleplays sake I really did want to treat her with nothing but respect and admiration, not really be a bad influence, lol)
Funnily enough that had me end up with the situation of my character transforming into an angel while ruining Sydney, which did not really feel all that alright? Though I can't deny it's written in a pretty charming way, so even there I can' complain. It's just that I am left pretty confused and maybe a tiny tad bit frustrated by myself (I seem to be to stupid to understand the mechanics around Sydney).
Long story short: Would you mind telling me how I can end up with Sydney becoming the pc's top (if that is even possible), are there ways to encourage her spanking (etc) the pc in general & if that is tied to her corruption/purity please tell me which does what.
Sorry for the wall of text, I wouldn't babble so much if this update hadn't blown away the tiny rest of my brain. ^^
have you ever though of making a figh club?
ReplyDeleteHere I am, I must say, I love Sydney, and who knew, it's Sirris's daughter, she mentions going to your science class, does it happen? I never got so far (as in time). Gotta say, just love her, maybe as much as I love Robin, finally found my missing side to the love /_\ Thanks for another great update, and boy did this one caught me off guard. Many thanks to you Vrelnir, PurityGuy, and everyone else working in this game.
ReplyDeleteDo take good care would you? XO
So I was wondering if its possible to add a bike, specifically a mountain bike so it's easier to get to and from Eden's cabin each day rather then taking a minimum of 1 hour per trip.
ReplyDeleteAlso would be cool to be able to buy a car, or rent one, which could open other story avenues with it....
And last piece I thought of was that I'd love to be able to buy musical instruments to play and practice at the Cabin.
I'll still play this even if you ignore this message cause I genuinely have been enjoying the game and I will be subbing to substar once I get home as i have allready sunk 30 hours into it, lol.
Also really just want more Eden content, he's a sweet heart 💖
Spoiler Ahead (don't read if you didn't finish Sydney's events) =333

I just finished Syd's events and man, I'm S H O C K E D! I didn't get it what happened, you know, after we "deflower" them, was that supposed to happen? Are they still virgin?? Were they possessed by the lust? Or was that the incense?? I need answers! ����
I'm not sure if this has been posted before, but when Sirris comes in the Library to check on Sydney, they refer to them as a girl even though I have them set as a male in the game. This update has been amazing so far nonetheless :) thank you so much (I'm very excited for the Prison!!)
