Hi hi! The build was long overdue for an update! This one was a struggle and a half since my computer fried last week and I couldnt access the latest version for a while. I got it back and was able to add in the new fixes I did in the meantime.
Android players PLEASE hang tight while I prepare the computer for creating Android builds
This new build contains:
Episode 9 for Zacharie and Clover is now in the game, you can hang out with the two of them at the thrift shop and see whatever nonsense they got up to on that day!
Because of this, you're now able to naturally unlock some of Clover's crush variant dialogues lol :)
Episode 14 for Liam and Alex are now in the game, see their endings to the common route :)!
New jealousy dialogues for Liam, Alex, and Ethan. If Liam and Alex both have high affection at the same time, they might react differently to finding out Val has a crush on the other. Ethan's jealousy dialogue for the call in e12 is viewable!
The ability to collect achievements! You can go back to earlier scenes in the game to collect any that you missed. Not all achievements are actually unlock-able just yet since the episodes they correspond to aren't available
New Main Menu layout. Characters that you lack the DLC for are missing from the main screen. This is to help people see if they properly installed any future routes :)
New background art of course. the courtyard has been updated to a new original image
Bugfixes: Updated renpy engine, fixed side image error and the tutorial looping error should be fixed! Fixed some missing images errorsGrab the update here:
Common route will be up on Steam soon I am still waiting on a few things before I am ready :)

The Touchstarved DEMO by @redspringstudio! I had so much fun replaying this DEMO over and over, I truly cannot wait for the full release. The art is gorgeous, the writing is excellent, and I am surprised at how much I really loved each character, I expected to at least hate one or two of them like with My Next Life lol. I highly recommend checking out the DEMO if you're a fan of otome games or gothic stories!
The DEMO can be found here on itch.io or here on steam! All the stickers are from different Hallween stickerbooks from Michael's Art Store ^^; (ngl I think this is one of my favorite spreads, I even did do some studies of the color/rendering fhdjsf)
Writing typed below! (plus extra notes)
Rating: 9.5 (demo score - great demo)
Played: Sp 2024
Port: itch.io
Play full? Y YES!!!!!!
Comments:
First Route: Origin - Unnamed. RO - Leander
love you have a choice of 3 origins
GORGEOUS ART!
this game made me realize I do really enjoy otome games and not as a joke or for irony lol fjdkfal
from initial appearances I like Vere and Mhin ^^;
all the gold on the angel doctor is so gorgeous
killer music
okay I thought I wouldn't like Leander but holy shit --
LMAO NOT HIS SEX ROOM
LETS go I got the special Leander option on the first try
I need to do studies of this art oml I need my art to look like this <3
DAMN, now I'm bummed I missed the kickstarter, I would LOVE the art book
I need the stickers too esp for when I journal the full version
not only do I like the art, the writing is very good too
Vere is so pretty...
I LOVE all the fun marketing lore and illustrations on the Red Spring Socials
ooo damn does Vere have a red option or did I do his route right without one
only three red choice dialogue. 4 recently for Kuras (no Vere)-- Vere has one now!!! Kuras and Vere should have them whenever the DEMO gets an update ^_^
I'm learning I'm good at making the correct decisions lol
I honestly didn't know you could die until after I finished Vere's route (2nd route I did correctly -- 1st was Leander) and was curious what submit surrender did (aka I didn't die initially but went back to see what would happen(
LMFAO NOT MHIN BLUSHING WHEN I TELL THEM OFF pfft
LMAOOO and now Mhin is scolding me
amused with who has slept with who
deathly curious on how fucked up Leander will be
Kuras's nose!!!!! <3
I love the concept designs of Sen and Elyon, I can't wait to meet them
LMFAO 'BASTARD'
ngl I love Ais's mullet
This should not have been one of my first otome games bc now my standards are so high, esp in regards to character design
I wonder if the flashing soulless in the title screen means we'll see more soulless in the full game (than just the one)
okay damn I also really like Ais, these are some really well written characters
LMAO I was not expecting this music for Kuras
oh interesting I didn't realize Mhin's red choice was during your first encounter if you're an alchemist
okay Kuras is very silly and goofy 10/10 guy
ooo good theories about Ocudeus and control on tumblr - "obedience" -- reference to someone thinking the "obedience suits you" line on Ais's character card was actually from Ocudeus not Ais
Summary:
I thought when playing more otome games it would be really hard to beat My Next Life, simply because I am a huge fan of the source material that preceded the game. But wow, with the way this game is setting up plotlines, the full version of this game could easily make it onto my top favorite games list. Otome games are all about replayability, and the way just the DEMO is so rich with content and alternating paths makes me so excited and hopeful for the full game's release. I am bummed I got onto the Touchstarved train late and missed the kickstarter, but hopefully a shop will open around release bc I'd kill for an art book. The art is just so gorgeous and I cannot wait to do some studies, especially with color and rendering. Before playing otome games, I like to look at the character profiles beforehand and predict who I'd like and dislike. And I am very delightfully surprised that any initial dislike I had of characters all but vanished because the writing and personalities of these characters were so well made. I thought I was going to hate Leander but he ended up being the character I'm most curious about. Although I would say my least favorite is Kuras simply bc I'm not a fan of romancing doctors, I am still curious about his background story and connection to the others. In other words, great character who is just not my type. I am also delightfully surprised at the "vulgarity" in this game without being overly explicit -- I have grown so tired of how sanitized a lot of games and shows have been that it's always really nice seeing indie companies play by their own rules. I am so glad I stumbled across this game!! At this point I've done every route favorably but haven't tried all the "wrong" options -- more to play whenever I think about how excited I am for the full game! I've also seen the sneak peaks of an upcoming update ^_^. Highly recommend the game!!

Devlog #134
Hi-ho, Wudge here. Devlog day!
I've mostly (90%) finished writing, editing, and coding in the scene immediately following the Super Demo! It's missing one choice set and I haven't put in any sfx or music just yet, but the conditionals and variables are all set and all of the images are in place.
I have room to improve with one of the images though -
It's so dark????? And I gotta add Jade and Dart, but--
I wanted to represent the MC thinking about the Love Interests, not that they suddenly teleported in. In the only outside example I can think of, shoujo anime, imagination/daydream scenes can be represented with pink bubbles and flowers, like so
...but that's a bit excessive for the tone of Herotome.
The most straightforward solution would be to commission a CG to showcase the characters from a different angle, but it'd only be for a couple of lines!! Not cost-effective 😂
So uh, wish me luck coming up with a visual solution that isn't cloaking the characters in darkness...
Stay safe and keep warm,
Wudge.
