Dark Lord Rises 1.0.0

Hello guys, a little surprise here - an update to the first game in the series, The Dark Lord Rises.

I say little, because despite large jump in version number, this update brings mostly bugfixes and corrections to bring names and lore in line with Divinion and incoming third, final game. There is some new content added - in particular, in Avonlica, before the story really kicks in - but not enough for me to recommend another playthrough for those who completed TDLR already.

Yeah, I replayed the game just recently, in order to remember some plot points and nuances. Boy, I came long way since when I started.

You can find download link to the completed version of the game on the side panel.

And now - back to development of the last game!

State of the Game - May

Hello guys, long time no see. It's been year since initial release of Divinion and I wanted to share with you a few words where do i stand with development.

Now, my progress is not as good as I'd like, but steadily, the final title in Renan's saga is taking shape. My main problem for now is balancing more erotic elements and proper storytelling. Divinion certainly lacked in the "ero" part, which I seek to remedy in final release. You can expect many more H-scenes, of more different variety. Though, as I mentioned in ony of my previous posts, the game will not follow totally "evil" route, Renan will have his share of bedmates, including many returning characters. Because yes, we are finally returning to Resticia, and it's time for Alba class to reunite... kind of. Sort of.

Another difference from Divinion, the game will offer less freedom to player - in the end, from what I gathered, open structure caused a bit too much confusion among players, and was source of many unnecessary bugs. The final game will definitely be more stramlined, with quality over quantity approach. I've finally settled down on battle system, and it's way better than default JRPG style that comes with RPG Maker. In fact, I am currently experimenting a bit with various concepts in hope of spicing the second half of the game with some interesting variety.

For now, I will be safe and predict release date on Christmas. Depending on this while coronavirus situation, it might be sped up or delayed - hard to tell at this point.

That's all for today. Stay tuned for next update!
