Changelog:

Hey guys, it's been several minutes. Sorry for the extensive absence. This isn't the update I promised or hoped to push out, but the wait has been too long for a while now. While I continue finishing the rest of the update(and rebranding it as version 0.9), I've decided to cut out a portion and release something now. Thank you all again for the patience and support.  I hope you enjoy this update!

Nyla and Varsha's chats have been updated beyond Chapter 2.

Nyla and Varsha may now receive headpats. Maybe.

Mira and Varsha's repeatable scenes have been updated with improved quality, sound effects, and new scripts. Varsha's second scene is now repeatable.

Added a new UI element in the main hub to help navigate through events. May or may not explode under pressure. If any hiccups happen between this new menu and character profiles, switching between them may help clear some issues up.

Let me know what you think and give me a heads up if there are any problems.

I'm hoping to have the next update out within the next few weeks. It should've already been completed by now, but a lot of work had to be scrapped and rearranged this time around. Lots of heartache. I think there was more I wanted to say, but I'll save it for next time. Thanks again for stopping by, please stay safe.

Reviews:

Congrats friend, you've discovered the basis of the VN/AVN genre. That's pretty much it. It's not a go places do things game. It's a follow the story, get attached to the characters game. We're not praising Konvel because they're making the next best call of duty rival. We're praising them because they're crafting a story with modern classical writing themes and a wide array of characters with choices that may or may not affect the story down the line. Can the reading get tedious? Absolutely. But what we're here for is the story. And porn. A lot of us are here for the porn. If you want AVNs with "game play", consider playing Wet Sand by Likho Games, Goddesses Whim by NCrow, or Alcyone Legends: Ilias by Alcyone Legends. All great great games, highly recommended personally with mini games, choices, and QTEs. But don't try and put down Konvel, who has been working on this, for YEARS, because you're bored with something that you're just not into. 

Great game, but more on to it is the soundtrack, that makes everything feel alive (aside for the basic H-scene soundtrack) this story has great potential, from the story writing to the world you've built.However i'm surprised to see that even if the MC is a ""new person" he doesn't seem to form a persona, if anything he feels pretty robotic in the way he acts and talks, as i understood about him he chose this path in the end but how come he doesnt have a flair if not through the decisions we make or will make, through the story.Also on a more personal sidenote, would love to see Hatsumi scenes or as a potential romanceable character! love character alot but as i said its more a personal hope. And it would be really dope to see some more on the Boss expanding his Troupe, getting close to them earning their loyalty.All in all i can't wait to see more on how the story unfolds, as a matter of fact im also considering becoming a Patreon to support this, it's simply way to good! came here for the premise (aka you being a demon lord)  stayed for the amazing story that showed and didn't expect!Keep at it, part of me hopes that Hatsumi becomes a romanceable character but hey a fan can dream! , and lots of love bro!

This is one of the few games on this site that has a storyline. And this plot is really good ! I like the fact that the main character is not a warm fudge and does not succumb to every adversity he encounters. I also like the choice of music for the game, Peritune does a great job. I downloaded most of the tracks from his site that you used in the game :)
