The Dark Lord Rises - version 0.2.7a

Ugh, finally! After whole month, I'd like to present you with new release The Dark Lord Rises - 0.27a!

This update is kinda unique one, in many aspects. First of all, it begins a new arc in a story. Say goodbye to Avonlica - our hero and his friends will finally move into new location. There is also a lot more of H content - I counted six major H scenes, plus a bit of teasing here and there :).

Another thing, this update is very... hmm... lore-heavy, and less RPG-ey. Expect much less battles than in previous update. I counted that 0.27a adds more than additional hour of gameplay.

For those that finished previous version but didn't keep their saves, I added an option to skip entire Avonlica arc. Simply talk to the old man in front of Renan's house and answer a few questions about your choices.

Next update should follow shortly and focus solely on bugfixing.  I hope you'll enjoy the game!

I'm LoLed

Recently my progress wasn't so great as my free time is almost entirely devoted to League of Legends World Championship. Still, next release is slowly coming together; what remains is mostly H-stuff, as next version will have a LOT more of erotic content. I think I'll be able to finish my work by the end of this week, then testing will take a few more days. So, you should expect next release in less than two weeks!
PS. Go Origen! West is best!

Tower of Joy

Last few days in my life were quite hectic - but somehow I managed to finish another part of the game. I quite enjoyed designing Mind Tower and I really hope you'll enjoy playing through it too - especially since there will be fair bit of eroticism involved (finally!) Now, I'm focusing on writing H-scenes here and there, since as I promised - game finally gets really lewd :) I predict next release will double amount to h-content in-game. Also, I really appreciate feedback you give me in various forums, it really keeps me motivated to improve The Dark Lord Rises further and further.

Right, The Dark Lord Rises... since this started as a minor distraction on the side, I didn't put much thought into title of the game - and it sound generic as fuck. I guess I'll be thinking about something cooler in near future.

Progress, bugfixing and version 0.2.6

Hello again guys! Over last days I made a good progress over next chapter. It's hard to write about it without spoilers, but I'm finally moving in to major sequence which will FINALLY get us on track for more mind control and corruption :) If you like Garden of Monsters, I think you'll also like Mind Tower - another dream-like dimension our hero will have to explore.

I;'m also constantly thinking about ways to include some decent erotic graphics into the game. Unfortunately, my drawing skills are next to non-existent, but I've been fiddling with 3D software a bit and maybe something will come out of it - though probably not in next major release.

Also, friendly users in Hongfire and other forums found some minor and major bugs I've managed to fix in version 0.26. Those include
-Looped fight with guards after returning to Avonlica
-Missing switch after returning to Avonlica,which could lead to player skipping good part of that arc.
-Possible accidental game over after encountering Lavinia.

Here's the link to bugfixed version:

As always, I hope you'll enjoy the game!

The Dark Lord Rises - version 0.2.5

Hello, everyone! Welcome to dev blog for the Dark Lord Rises - erotic RPG game I started making in my free time just for fun. Over last few weeks this side project of mine grew quite a bit and I decided to pour a little more effort into it, resulting in what I'm about to present you right now.

Version 0.25 of the Dark Lord Rises covers entire first act of story I have planned. Unfortunately, I like to take my time and take thing slow with stories I wrote so for a sex game... there is not that much erotic stuff yet (six-seven scenes in around five hours of gameplay). This is basically one great set up for things to come. If you want  to know more about the game, my plans for it and my philosophy of game-making, please click on the link on the sidebar.

Now, some of you probably had opportunity to play the early versions of The Dark lord Rises I posted on Hongfire and 4chan. I'm happy to say that according to my game timer, version 0.25 almost doubles the content from earlier build. There is a bit more  RPG-ey stuff inside, and our protagonist finally makes his first step into realm of corruption (though it is small one :)). I have planned much more ero-content for next update.

Anyway, her are the links for the Dark Lord Rises version 0.2.5 - RTP included with the game.
