For some time now, with your help, I have been creating my game - an RPG/strategic Dark Lord simulator.And now it is the time for the big update, focusing primarily on the endgame. Players focused on direct conquest will have new ways to find new battlefields - portals to crazy, Lovecraftian worlds, discovering new lands, and a magical slumber to wait for the rebirth of old enemies/the emergence of new ones (and seeing how the world changes in their absence). For players more interested in the less brutal side of world domination, the options for managing the territories of our empire will be expanded. Will you allow orcs to overrun Dark Elf cities? Will schools focus on training engineers for the army and economy, or on brainwashing them into blind obedience? Furthermore, I’m expanding the Dark Lord’s interactions with other characters, including available romances. Of course, new content requires testing, and since, as usual, it’s highly non-linear and dependent on player decisions (plus random generation), I can’t test every combination myself.That’s why I’m seeking the help of testers. All you need to do is play once—one playthrough lasts about 1.5 hours (as I mentioned, the game is highly non-linear and is meant to be played multiple times, each time revealing a different story) and send me a short report (specifically, indicating if you’ve spotted any obvious bugs).Game, as always, is available free here: https://adeptus7.itch.io/dominion No need for dowload or registration.And another news - one of the players made a fan song inspired by the game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mPcsUonuyo
Looks like one of those dime a dozen twine games.
>>2356105>Looks like one of those dime a dozen twine games.Hello! Yes, it was made in Twine. However, I dare to say it is one of the biggest Twine games, with more than 1000 scenes. Plus, most of the "interactive fiction" games nowadays are some woke "explorations of feelings" - this one has actual mechanics, tactics and more action-focused story.
>>2356106Yeah, no thanks. Good luck tho.
>>2356108Thanks, good luck for You too!
good luck based ESL poledev. I played your game and didn't notice any bugs. I'm always a fan of games where you're the dark lord, so the theme was nice. The gameplay gets kind of tedious with influence and troop raising, didn't feel very strategic. I did a sneaky tempter playthrough where I played everyone off against each other and won easily, and then an orcmaxxing barbarian playthrough where I lost horribly.>>2356106>most of the "interactive fiction" games nowadays are some woke "explorations of feelings"I think most are porn actually. Speaking of which, what your game made me want to do more than anything is play Ravager again to see where it's at now with updates.
>>2356103looks like AI crap
>>2356103Trash game, broken shit, go kill yourself.
>>2356562Thank You very much, I think I found source of the bug and fixed it.
>>2356103I was going to ask if we didn't have this thread just archived... and then I realised I'm on /vst/ and not /tg/
>>2356103Can I knock up an elven vampire like the one in the top left panel? Making heirs is uh very important to me.
>>2357187no, I waifued her but no breeding occurred. Ravager is still the ultimate game for dark lord breeding harem shit, too bad it's also a scaly game since you play as a literal dragon
>>2357290Well, she is actually the only potential consort which you cannot have child with. Maybe I will add it in the next update.
If I wanted to read AI slop I'd go generate some myself.
>>2357366Scenario and texts are my work. It is just that I am a writer, not an artist.
buy an ad you slop nigger
>>2357679>stop shilling this free game!
>>2357711It's not even a game. twine is just a way to deliver gifs to sissy hypno addicts
>>2356103>kolażpolack slop detected, go pay your midjourney slop subscription
>>2356103pretty gud. but i find it unfair that the "chosen one" can instant kill u later if you don't have enough Human Influence to ass-sin him before he gets powerful.
>>2357143i realised the thread is one month old and OP should have posted in >>>>>/vrpg/3951559but /vrpg/ might be deader than /vr/.
>>2356103Looks interesting.
>>2356103What is the real difference between domination and influence because one seems to lead to the other, especially as I am going for a Sauron route. Without going into to many details, can you go fully into one race? Not just between the humans, elves and dwarves but even foregoing your greenskins and otherwise to maximize your forces racially? Green horde, united Humanity, Dwarven Legion, etc.
>twine game with AI art>no lewdsDead on arrival
>>2381344>Without going into to many details, can you go fully into one race?yes but greenskins are pretty weak and lacking in events even if you play as a warlord which get a "free" orc general.and in most playthroughs, an event will start where a human hero is found and you will need to have high human influence to murder the hero , or the hero will OHKO you in lategame. so even if you wanna focus on just one race, you need to have about 6 influence in humans to survive the hero event.>>2381465some of the AI art if good. this is not a hentai game. it does have waifus but only if you play as a male.
>>2381578Alright, that seems fair. I will keep an eye on the six influence for the humans. For the record I am actually enjoying it quite strongly, I have played a few times with varying levels of "strategy" just to get a feel for it. I have so far defeated the humans, got the elves on my side and lost to the dwarves. I will say though I am not particularly fond of the randomness of some events, for example the assassination tasks. Is there some method behind my assassin failing and succeeding? On my first run my elven assassin seemed to have 100% success rate but afterwards he always loses and dies. I am not asking for a cheat option or anything but is there anything on my end I can do to maximise my chances with him? I'm quite into Elves, Light and Dark, so he definitely is my favourite 'special' character. On the topic of waifus, who are they racially and how many are there? I have not found any yet though I like the idea of being able to marry the Elven Queen, an adoption to pursue that instead of the turncoat Elves killing her would be interesting. My instinctual Dark Lord ambition would be to rule with the Elves only, with me as their Lord and God.
>>2381646*an optionAdopting an Elven Queen is a funny concept though.
>>2381646>elven assassin seemed to have 100% success rate but afterwards he always loses and dies.survival increases if you have high influence in that kingdom, but the elf ass-sin will ALWAYS die if you send him to kill the human hero.no elf queen adoption. go msg the polandball dev on itch. io about it.>waifus.so far i've found the human paladin, the snake woman, vampire girl, pirate elf, and 1 succubus. i don't think you can marry the succ though. i think only the warlord and temptress class got marriage options but it might be random? i forgot. tyrant class will alway try to kill the snake people because raging autism, unless you're an earth mage.
>finally found a sequel to Defiler Wings
>>2382055I don't have an itchio account to leave a message and since the dev posted here then hopefully he will have read my post and become hopelessly obsessed with tailoring his free game to my personal preferences. I am assuming this is going to happen.
Oh, I had no clue that this thread was not closed! A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one! So, of course, in meantime, I was updating the game... And you know what? One of the things I ades was option to make Queen of Elves your concubine. She is available for the Tyrant - to maximalize chance, you should have big Influence with humans and elves and invade land of elves before the dwarves. Of course there are also some other changes - e.g. I tried make "pure Influence" victory slightly more difficult and orcs slightly more usefull. New update is not officially published yet, but You can play it here: https://adeptus7.itch.io/playtestingIf You see anything which looks like a bug, please send me a screenshot, including stats - it will help me find source of the problem.
>>2384459Very, very, nice. Total Elven Supremacy (under my Tyrant's watchful gaze and proud protection). Would you say twenty influence for the Elves and ten for the Humans would do it? Either way I shall not be denied my half-elven children.
>>2384459>>2384481I just played a bit and won the war, this is everything I wanted. Perfect job, well done this is great.
>>2384481Well, I think that 10 for the Elves and 7 for the Humans should suffice.
>>2384459The fact I can also sacrifice the orcs in the battle with the dwarves, take the Elvish artifacts off them to give as a present to my wife and chosen people whilst also barring them from the cities of elf and man is, again, perfect.
>>2384523I ended up going with 20 and 10 anyway but it all worked out in the end, also I think the ai art is great.
>>2384521O, you found a bug! Thanks! I fixed it. If You want to be mentioned in the "thank you" section, but don;t want to namefag here, You can give me Your name/nick in the comment on itch or send on marekzegarek77777@gmail.com
>AI generated slopDeath by data center explosion
>>2384541The only name I shall go by is "Elf-Breeder", whether or not that is acceptable to you is your business.
>>2384662I will add it, why not (in the Polish evening, I have no access now). >>2382055Hmm, You chouls have an option to make succubus (Namaah) your consort. Don't you hae it? Anyone had?
>>2384873>have an option to make succubus (Namaah) your consort. Don't you hae it? Anyone had?i was hardly able to summon her. she's a random demon summon while playing as tyrant i think?
>>2384523i thought the useful limit for influences is 9?
>>2384983ok i think a blog i found said the SUCC can be married by Tempter or Warlord, but so far in the beta test posted by OP, > https://adeptus7.itch.io/playtestingmy tempter kept screwing up his demon summons. every single demon tried to kill me! i reloaded and summoned good olde undead instead.
