THwN 5.99 - Lewd Theater Episode 2: The Villain Interviews

And now we come to another segment of 'Lewd Lounge', where the characters sit around beyond the 4th wall, enjoy some fine dining and discuss the game itself in their public theater! This episode features 3, actually 4 yet-to-come villains who you'll be seeing more of in the coming updates going deeper into game development. A fun little way to get to know them with a round table chit-chat!

THwN 5.98 - The Spirit Exchange

Beyond the Sunnywood Glades, comes a free tour of an area I've been excited to develop, the Spirit Exchange. A stock market of souls, where freewill is a stock option and spirits are just another currency finding its place with the avarice of business minded Oni, who report directly to the Kitsune Lord.  

More on this enigmatic location to come soon, for now take a little look around...

THwN 5.97 - Updated Ending Gallery

Nothing too fancy, this update is just some new recent illustrations and Game Over artwork. You can check them out in the Gallery Lounge within the Omake room if you want! 

Are there any particular endings  you'd like to see drawn out or commissioned and then added to the game? Voice if-so in the comments below!

THwN 5.96 - New Purity Ends

This update 5.96 features some new purity additions with some unorthodox TFs, opposites in fact! One involving some Queenly Monsterification, and another where some demons who you might've seen before get a bit in touch with their human side. You can find them at the Purity Nun located within a Goblin cave crypt closet. You know, the place with all the cursed gold and goblins?

Goblin Cav...

THwN 5.95 - Creepshow Tunnels

This update brings you the Creepshow Tunnel run game in Cleaflow, a dungeon crawler where you have to dash to the end in spite of infectious ghoulish obstacles. 

-Lower difficulties have faster, quicker ghouls, but much easier, brighter lighting. Higher difficulties however have slow, still ghouls but darker lighting and harder navigation.

-Ghouls will chase you attempting to f...

THwN 5.94 - New Quests, Shop Sorcerie Emporiumenagerie

Version 5.94 is live.

This version includes some new quests, which from this point on for reference will be mostly done thru the Quest System, and occasionally feature new repeatable "Bad End" type Quick-time like events. 

These quests include a revisit of Eden to find directions/help around, a father looking to connect with his User daughter, a User mother and her ...

[New Game] - Wanna Kill Me?

This is the first in a long line of planned games that I've been working on. As of now this section only features the introduction and first segment, with 2ish Endings at the moment. Wanna Kill Me is a puzzle game with the similar themed content as some might come to expect to me, cloning, fantasy kingdoms and surreal silly worldbuild setups among other things I like to develop. The next instal...

THwN 5.926 - New Purity Endings

Hey everyone! I'm here with a game update, this one adds some new fun Purity Endings, purchasable by to a Purity Abbess in Aerotown's school while returning to the zombie infestation. If you're digging to see more of those, feel free to check it out!

THwN 5.925 - Gallery Expansion and Omake's Lounge

As a new feature of the game, exclusively and only for Patreons I'm introducing the 'Lounge' a little special featurette within the Omake Room that will contain 4th wall breaking scenes involving game discussion, recaps and frivolous things every update or so few. They're made pretty improv, so not even I know what the theatre there will about next time.

Additionally, the Bonus Art gallery has e...

THwN 5.92 - Verishire and the Farms

Building on the new map's westward expansion, we now have added Verishire, the farm-bound village where grass knoll and perfectly ordered houses (and villagers) practically way for you in rows! Isn't this town a little too perfect? As adventurers it's often something you have to consider, whether to intervene on the sunnier side of things or not. Let's hope Bernida and Maid choose carefully!

THwN 5.91 - Clepsydrale

Building off the Map expansion/revamp, at the far end of the east you'll find a NEW cryptic, town running like clockwork where all sorts of enigma abound that has the whole shaky, spooky town spellbound! If you're looking forward to steampunk adventures and kinks, this will be a town you'll need to keep an eye on and check out!

THwN 5.90 - OverMap Revamp and Town Indicators

This was a long time coming. I've basically redone the entire overworld map. Completely! Personally I felt the old one was a little cluttered, and was getting too small for some things I had in mind.
The new map is meant to encapsulate a larger picture of some of my plans and the new developmental path I aim for this game to take, leaving a lot of space for new areas I'm going to introduce in ...

THwN 5.89 - Yokai Town Purity Ends

The Nun/Priestess within Yokai now offers a nice lil selection of new Purity Purchases for anyone that wants a quick fix. I had fun writing some of these scenes, my hope is to sort of interlope more of them into backstories and expanded material on the game while also keeping the lewd transformative elements. 

THwN 5.88 - Sunnywood East and the Glades

After a long delay, an update comes to extend the town of Sunnywood. You can go see the newer part of town, and after completing it's events head back into the yokai forests to start your quest onto the Glades and search for the supposed Kitsune Dono and her mysterious Spirit Exchange. There's a new Mini-game system in the woods that involves finding collectible items (Eggs) after you get the righ...

We have a Discord Server now

Technically we've had it for a bit but, if you have any bugs, errors, complaints or just wanna talk to the me, the creator and other fans here's the place to do it:

Check it out!

THwN 5.87 - Skillpoints and Skill Purchase

It's a long time coming for a feature like this huh? This update onwards allows fairly straightforward skillpoint earning via leveling up, which you can use to up your various stats as you go through the game. Pause the game and access it straight from the menu. Pretty basic!

You can also spend Purity Points directly to earn additional Skillpoints and augment your stats further for a nice l...

THwN 5.86 - Ambrosia's Backstory

This is a short sidestory that's essentially a mini sort of "Ambrosia Gaiden" onto itself! It connects to Heliot Gaiden heavily and tells the tale of Ambrosia from Miranda's perspective, and also introduces some other heavy story aspects on the side. 

Hope you like exposition!

THwN 5.85 - Cleaflow II

Finally after two months, we're back! I bring to you an update on a recently introduced starter town, the expansion of Cleaflow. There's some new Users to fight, new ends and brand new content scattered throughout the town to find and explore. Hope you enjoyed the very first town in the game, because contentwise I was going for trying to recreate that direction of fun and pure discover-and-see goi...

THwN 5.82 - Yokai Forest

Lastly, THwN 5.82 extends Sunnywood beyond the serendipitous down into the dark and mysterious swampy fields of the Yokai Forest, where Kappa and other mystical creatures loaf about and a curse befalls those who stay unwittingly. I was really excited about this one and the idea of doing an enchanted eastern-themed setting off japanese folklore was something I've wanted to do for a while now, and n...

THwN 5.81 - Phantom Cave

THwN 5.81 introduces a new dungeon full of the ethereal and spectral! 

One thing I'm planning on introducing is a different kind of dungeon type distinct from the usual sprawling labyrinthine layout, that goes upwards in levels and floors for more concrete challenges rather than going outwards like the bee and fairy dungeons, so that'll be in the works and this is starting to test that ...

THwN 5.8 - Cleaflow Town

Cleaflow Town, a new town near the start is introduced in this uploaded update. 

I'm hoping with some of these new areas to bring a bit of the game's original formula (With various kinds of scenes going on in Eden Town) rather than the more arc-based approach I've been going with them, and the fun cavets (and purity point bonuses and other reaped rewards) with them.  

Check it ou...

THwN 5.79 - New Purity Buys

Update time has arrived!

New Purity Upgrades/Vignettes have been added via the Purity Nuns finally. Stock up on points, and check out the nun in the Anthrubaysia Caverns to get a good watch of'em! 

(Bugpatch) THwN .578b

This update (.578b) is just a minor patch to attempt to fix various errors that have collected overtime. You'll find the results of attempting to patch up:

-Some various tiling and wall issues

-Errors where the Nightgale woods would block up 

-An major bug with the Purity System where your points would become your permanent currency

-The Quest System

-A noted bug...

THwN 5.78 - The Spirit Infernal

Continuing off Heliot Gaiden, we enter the kernel of our two Queens' being in this penultimate chapter to the saga. The Spirit Infernal is a crude unsightly place worthy of hell itself, a picturesque portrait of Heliot's soul superimposed over it's victims. Finish up Heliot Gaiden and go give it a run at the end of Kokoro's long journey!

 
That's all for this month!
Hope you all enjoy...

THwN .57.7 Sunnywood folktown

Version .57.7 introduces a new town surrounded by woods, where yokai have been said to prey on humans and drag them into their strange mystical world. This area connects to Anthrubaysia (locationwise) and will be one of two optional 'side-routes' one can take after the initial chase with the mysterious blond interloper. 

THwN 5.76 - New quest system

This update finally gives something I've been hoping to add to the game for a while now, a more formal way to keep track of and add on new quests. In an open world game like this a clear direction can get a little muddled, so having a nice organized way in the menu to keep track of quests as they're added, I consider a definite improvement. There are only a very small number of quests currently fo...

THwN 5.75 - End of Gaiden

This is THwN version 5.75, continuing off and putting nearly the final pieces on Heliot's origin story and how it all intertwines and connects. 

Next time this is continued, it will feature Heliot's return and 'first appearance', these scenes that will advance into the final area of this game arc, the Spirit Infernal, and in preceding will be playable with a hefty quest on your hand. Then l...

THwN 5.7 - Heliot Gaiden II

The 2nd part of Heliot's origin story.

There will be one last part after this a lil later.

It will be shorter, and much lewder. 

That's all for this month. Hope you enjoy.

ThWn 5.6c - Combat Will system!

This update introduces the will system, which is a combat mechanic that will have reaching repercussions for new game features overall. Mainly for Endings and possible states/battle dialog, to make the game more dynamic overall. The Will system is currently in an early stage but you can see it in any battle you encounter. As you fight, your party and enemies gauges will swap about as you both take...
