Hello im following the by date guide and am just confused on the winston quest like how to report him? I have all the evidence (or the things needed by the guide)
Hiii i was also wondering how do find the hairpin and another thing is that i tried 5 times already to get with thane but its so hard... TwT help EDIT: after 2 more tries i did it NVM!

Im so excited for the steam release!!! I was just wondering, will the itch io version and the steam version be the same, content wise? And is the game rated all ages or does it contain nsfw? Also, will you include the guide with a steam purchase as well? Thank you so much for all your hard work!!!
Steam and itch io build have the same content! As of currently it’s for all ages but more oriented to R16. If we reach 10K in gross profit then I will make a r18 dlc as that means the project is financially viable for me to make a dlc ^ ^
If it reaches 20K in gross profit then I will also add another dlc to date the witches
i and I will include the guide in the forums tab of Bewitching Sinners upon release
Thank you!!! Out of curiosity, do you have an idea how many words the game has? And if one purchases the game via itch io, do you plan on including a steam key once the game releases there? Also, do you have an estimate how long the common route or the lis route take to finish? Sorry for all the questions, I'm just too excited lololol Either way, thank you so much for your hard work! Keeping my fingers crossed that you reach far beyond your goal!!!
no worries! according to my editor, there is over 100K words but tbh I’m not sure myself as I didn’t write this on a conventional word engine and just directly to code.
I do plan to add steam key to the itch io purchase once the game is released on steam.
A common route without dating anyone is about 6 hr and with about 8-9. Hope that answers all ur questions ^ ^
hmm I will try to explain the best to my abilities, but apologies if it’s hard to understand.
Basically there a lot of prequisites to get Thane. First you have to complete the Find the Culprit Quest before Meyza ask you to meet a second time. You can do so by checking the doodles on Winston’s desk and submitting the quest. Then when Thane bit Fia, agree to go and accompany him to see her. Then do not craft the cure and instead just wait until Io’s arc is done, once you inserted Io’s heart, Thane should ask you to bond, say yes.
i have many players and patrons finishing with Thane so I don’t think it’s a coding issue, but let me know.
does anyone know if the game can be played on mac? i unfortunately only have a macbook and i was wondering if there was a software or something that would make it possible for me to play this game... I've been hearing so much about it and I would love to play ittt
dunno why i got downvoted twice :'( but I was able to see it on Steam after it was released! I wasn't able to see it until the release date on steam (dunno why but sorry for the confusion! and to those who were offended..ig)
Please, we need the DLC! I don't want this story to end. We need more interactions with the LIs. Your game is so amazing and I just can't say goodbye to the guys :_)
thank u for that sweet comment please share the word on Bewitching Sinners if you can, it really helps a lot! I also post dlc art updates on my patreon ^ ^
hello currently it can only be with PayPal but as soon as my test with itch io pending payment system is done then I will make it available to buy with other methods. Or you can also wishlist on steam and wait for the release there coming on May 3rd
Update: the issue has been resolved! The art is sooooo gooood.
Hi! I just bought the game and the download link is so slow (I think it's on itch.io's part. Tried to change my internet provider and stuff but to no avail.) Are there any alternative download links available? I'll gladly take any because the download speed is torturing me. One-time disposable link would be appreciated, but if that isn't possible, it's totally fine!
Btw, the revelation about Quill was really unexpected) And I was rolling on the floor laughing because of how my MC was teasing him after that! That was hilarious! Thank you for his amazing route)
Just finished a line from the game, and while it's sad that not everyone has a good ending, I do like the complexity of the quests you portrayed, though it feels like everyone has their own haha. Anyways! I'm looking forward to the DLC and was wondering if there will be a sequel? (*^▽^*)
oh god this made me a bit scared lol. I'll still buy the game soon (probably next week), but could u tell me which characters dont have a happy ending so I can do them last? I'm kind of a happy ending sucker lmao, hard for me to read sad endings. You can put a spoiler tag and space so others dont get spoiled
I'm sorry I didn't mean to, I just edited it QAQ Sorry for my bad grammar because English is not my first language, I mean isn't there a good ending for everyone (on a path) Anyway please forgive my bad grammar, it's a great game!
I think there's a language barrier happening haha, Since I didn't completely understand the reply. Its fine though! Don't worry about it.
I'm not sure if my browser automatically translated your original comment before, because I originally saw it in english instead of chinese (that's the reason why i replied in english),
I wanted to ask if it's normal that I've chosen a female MC and in conversations sometimes they still refer to me as Mr. and not Ms? For example this happened when I had a conversation with a fairie from the library.
ah dude is common. Idk in the us but in my culture we use dude for both girls n boys among friends, but thanks for the info and let me know if I miss anything else!
Oh, I'm sorry) I might have misunderstood that moment). You're right that "dude" actually can be used for both males and females. Also I'm not sure if in this conversation with Thane, Quill and Arshem it was a bug that Thane used "them" when talking about my MC, since she is female with female pronouns. But maybe by "them" Thane meant MC and Quill. I'm really not sure if it's a bug. Sorry if I'm bothering you for nothing.
It refers to the mc, I admit sometimes there are a few sentences that uses them/they instead as I feel it fits the vibe better and can be used but I can see why it may seem like a bug so thanks! ^ ^
Hi! When the game reaches 20k gross profit (It will, it will!!) will the R18 patch be free to those who have already purchased the game or a DLC side game? Also, am I allowed to know what it's reached so far? Thank you
so far it has reached around 7K in gross. Which considering the game has only been out for 4 days, dats great! Very thankful for u guys’ enthusiasm
The r18 patch will be a paid dlc, as I know some fans of this game might be on the younger side so I don’t want it to be patch into the base game as is. But the r18 dlc will be capped at 2-4 USD max (with vers option for male mc) as for the witch route target dlc at 20K gross profit I am still pending on price for the witch routes . i know what I want to do but not sure on the word count or cg count for that yet. ^^
Thank u for supporting the game and Please spread the word of the game on social media as it really helps a lot!
I mean I could but idk seems a bit innapropriate as an announcement post. This is something of my own limitations/flaws as I had a very rough economic patch before Sinners demo, and I wud feel bad looking at other devs or writers profit numbers. So I wud just post if the goal is reached.
I will answer in a thread tho. Like right now its in the 7.3K mark
Thanks for the wonderful game! Because I can not use the paypal, I'd like to know whether the R18+ dlc will be released on the steam.( although it might be unavailable in my country, so sad! Really like your game!
I just finished playing Bewitching Sinners for the second time in three days and I'm honestly impressed by the amount of content and the quality of this game —Even more knowing it was created in 1 year and a half 💕
I absolutely loved the interactivity of the gameplay, and I spent so many hours exploring the map, talking with each person and going back to do as many choices I could make.
The dialogues and interactions between all the characters were both funny and entertaining.
[Spoiler and question about the ending]
Right now I've done:
- Meyza's Happy Ending
- Io's Happy Ending
- Ivar's Happy Ending
- Seth's Happy Ending
- Seth Alternative Ending
- Palmier's Happy Ending (I think?)
But this is where I'm confused... because I did everything for "Palmier's Happy Ending": asked for the truth with Ivar, unlocked the Diary quest & Finished the Diary Quest, but the Ending was called "Your Happy Ending" so I'm not sure if I got the right one or if I messed something up and got the true "Your Happy Ending" (Ignorance is Bliss) instead of Palmier's Happy Ending... 😭
Basically, in the one I got, we go put the heart in "Non-MC-Palmier", he wakes up, we celebrate the MC departure, then Palmier (The MC) is back home with one of the guy, they meet their neighbours and then we have a glimpse of "Non-MC-Palmier" world were he talks about the witches and summon "Furry-Ivar"
Is it "Your Happy Ending" or "Palmier's Happy Ending" ? 🥲
Anyway, thank you for this game! It was amazing <3
ah that’s the right one it was kinda a pun since you know non mc and mc are technically the same person so i used your for both. you have all endings! Sorry for the confusion
No worries! I'm relieved to hear that ahah, I just wanted to make sure!
Also, I was wonderding, is it possible for the MC to go back to his world without a boyfriend? (If he rejects the crushes when they ask him or if we choose to keep going for Thane's interactions/scenes even when he is bonded with Fia/or cured)
Or will the game automatically makes us go with the crush we have the higher score with?
you can go back to your world single. If you do this and have one of the bad endings and truth tag on, you all will play dnd with the boys of mc’s world haha
Arshem really got done dirty by our doppelganger. Like WTF… I was shocked. WHY are they like that!!! And the amount of fear I had anticipating his reaction to finding out our true identity ☠️ Miss Xero please stop breaking my heart!
The fact that he can still even save you in that moment, like he still holds you closest to his heart… that’s a real dedicated/obsessed man right there. And then the roles reversed and I chased him around, talk to me dammit!!! Not me missing his sweet talk and softness for our character 😭😂
Ivar doesn't have a route with a happy ending yet right? will he ever have a route? I'd like to somehow make him happy his story resonates in a way I wasn't expecting.
Hmm if u mean the happy in our standards, as of right now, no. The closest is maybe in Palmier’s (the non mc one) True Ending. And the more revenge version of happy is his own happy ending.
if I reach a 20K gross profit, I do plan a dlc for ivar not only a route but an ending
Well Fingers crossed its reached then, He's a horribly tragic character. Characters with past of SA tend to resonate with me as someone who is a victim of that myself, (Though I say past its never really over for him is it?)
I wish there was an option to say to him he has sad eyes because personally, I think he does even if that's not mentioned. How could you not?
Unrelated little option of mine Personally id rather have a route for Siren boy rather then Seth as honestly I think Seth is too dislikeable to have his own route but then siren boy is soul bounded so boo
very understandable, tbh Irwin was supposed to be an mc of another game I scrapped so I get it and yes Seth is an ass, but like Io, Kor and Ivar, he has a story to tell (which I had to cut for time in the current game) so I want to share it if I can!
Also, thank you for saying he resonated with u, though I am sorry for the reason. I hope ur doing well.
Definitely worth the money imo. I feel like I'm gonna have to space my runs out more, getting Palmier's ending first then Ivar's. I didn't think it'd be so drastic, but I love that it went there. All the characters were really enjoyable.
Look forward for the Steam release! I absolutely loved the demo so can’t wait to play! One question; how much time can I expect to spend for each route and for completionist? I saw that you put “days or more” per session but want a more accurate estimate, if possible? Thank you so much for making this game!
when I try to test everything (and I do mean everything from each routes and each ending) it took me over 20 hrs lol. There were a lot of replays. Ina sum though per ending is about 8 hours.
I simply could not wait any longer for the steam release so I went ahead and got it, absolutely love the story so far! There’s so much to explore and I’m obsessed. Arshem is definitely a favorite so far… but this man has issues!!
Congrats on release!! I cant really afford to buy the game rn but hopefully i can try to buy it once it comes out on steam. Really loved the game when i played the demo so Congratssss
there was no way I was going to wait for steam to not be slow so I bought it here I did get to play some and what I played was amazing of course I have my favorite guy already Arshem
Steam really be slow though, I submitted the build for review on the 18th for review. And from my experience they do be taking 5 business days instead of 2-3, well there was a weekend so I understand
My game crashes when I try to load a save file, and it will not let me start from a save. It makes me restart the game fully. Is there something I can fix
Have you tried moving all the saves from the previous v 1.1 to the new v 1.2 game folder? If the problem persists then for now please play the v 1.1 version you previously downloaded as I try to see and find a fix
I'm sorry for this inconvenience , as this is a new issue
for now yes, sorry as Im still testing if I use a system that allows for itch io to take stripe, will the money go to my account or not. Once I know it works then I will change it so it doesn’t only accept paypal. This process takes 10 days or so to test.
Hey! First of all, congratulations!! I've been waiting for the release of the game so eagerly!! The artwork is absolutely stunning, and the story is very compelling.
So, I might need help with locating the game key you sent. "itch io Patreon access link" to all those who have been previously subbed to the ~15€ tier, I just cant seem to be able to locate mine.
What to do? Been through Itch like a madwoman, trying to find it... Thank you and sorry!!!
(I sent the same msg on Patreon too, didn't know which you preferred for these sort of messages.)
wow okay I cant believe it's been almost 10 months since I finished the demo. the art is gorg. I just finished my first run after 9ish hours and I'm really interested in how the story could end any differently. also so hoping for the 20k goal in your other post, seth/ivar routes would be insane.
but I'm still confused on how the curiosity/honesty/kindness stats affect anything. I ended with 20 kindness and was still called a goody two shoes so I don't think that's it. also, the gifting is kinda confusing. it always shows up as none, like the honey pops I crafted before a date
Still awhile for 20K but we've passed the halfway point for the 10K gross profit though! So hopefully it keeps going I can publicly release the r18 DLC here when it's done
The kindness/honesty/curiosity help a lot with your exploration and love route choices.
For example you can't hug Thane in the late night lake event unless your kindness is at 50 , Can't hug Quill either during his love route event if your kindness is below 20. The siren will snap at you for touching them if your kindness is too low.
Some of MC's dialogue will automatically be brutally honest if their honesty is above a certain point. Like inappropriately blurting out they like soap operas in the lake awakening event. For curiosity, you need at least 50 to reach parchment 7, etc
Everyone will still call you a goody two shoes though, because let's be honest... you're a saint compared to any of them in their world.
For gifts, they should have popped up as I seem to have no issues with it, but I'll try to test that out in other computers, may I know your device? Mac? Windows?
it was definitely a treat, I actually laughed aloud a lot which I don't think has ever happened to me with VN, or at least for a long time. fingers crossed for continued momentum!
& thanks for the explanation, I was so confused with the crossed out options. huge + for replayability.
I played on Win 11 on version 1.1 (I don’t know if it was fixed in 1.2). I’ll try and see what’s going on next time I’m able.
absolutely loved playing this game. i've had a couple of endings, and romanced 3/4, definitely worth the money!! if there's ever going to be a ivar's route (either here or patreon), you bet i'm going to buy it, bc ouuuff i love him. he's complicated and what not, but he's my fave. soo might just romance his son for now lol
I am so excited to play this game. I got my key from Patreon, I had been waiting for this game to release for a long time, and it's finally here. Thank you for making this game.
Hi ! I saw you already said to another player we could pay with paypal or stripe but when I want to pay itch.io only propose paypal. I verified with another game which proposes paypal and stripe. Did I miss something somewhere ? Sorry to bother you with this. *Hides.* (Unfortunately Steam is not an option for me.)
Hello ! I was hoping to hear some good news from you ~. Did you find a solution to buy your game with a normal cb card and no paypal account ? I know another creator had this problem once and told in a post (I think or maybe it was a reply) she just had to check a case. I hope to play your game soon and if it's not possible still thank you to have tried. Your demo was a delight to play ! ~
[spoiler] Man getting that Ivar ending on first playthrough is foul. I'm so mad!Especially since game gave me the hints, I just tralalaed because man pretty and sad.
get genuinely scared of the man in the demo
IMMEDIENTLY forget about it when the game comes out
''would you want to know the truth no matter how hard it is?'' girl I'm nosy obviously (🤦)
stare at this stupid rune for the entire game (oh is that a rose? fits the flower man nod nod)
ROSE Of Hecate mentioned
ROSE OF HECATE said to let you jump bodies
ROSE. OF. HECATE. (aAAAAAAAAAAAAA)
backstory revealed (and I'm just gonna say it was so cruel, but made so much sense for his character and made sympathising with him so easy)
he LOVES his sons!! the circumstances are just real dire!!!
we hug! (did he enchant my ass there? is it physical touch for him? is that why I didn't get the option to smooch? am I that easy????)
he says he will probably help us (owo)
Io says he likes us (owo) (definetely not biased or trying something)
Io is pretty unproblematic and goes down pretty easily 👍(headmaster who)
he saves our ass
why is a rune there? don't worry about it babygirl okay yippie!
our girlboss girlfailure other self wakes up 😃
we say goodbye to everyone and it's all very wholesome! <3
''would you still like to know the truth?'' kinda sus but okay ''why are your eyes-?'' ANYWAY NOT MY PROBLEM ANYMORE
3 months long Bahamas holiday with Quill (YIPPIE) 💖💖
wtf are we dreaming about
he wants to say goodbye maybe??? some plot details???
GIRL WHAT
KOR COME PICK ME UP I'M SCARED
Ivar: I know you like them so I cut their pain receptors :3
Me: pikachu face
I have so many questions
Did his curse also transfer?? Did it not, but he just didn't feel safe as a last witch?? Is he waiting for it to weaken?? Was somebody mean to him?? Where tf is Lyall??? Was it his plan all along?
at least we got Quill out...?
FIAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!
''thanks to your friendship-'' I SHOULD HAVE LEFT YOU AT THAT CORNER I FOUND YOU
(Quill also tried to choke me and I still went with his so maybe I'm the problem?)
How are you gonna get laid now fool??? You ain't got no daughter to led down to altar??? What about your dreams?? OR did he only get humans??
How big a concussion do we need to forget all that?
AAAAAAAAAA
Quill is gonna get one funny story when we wake up
Is Ivar gonna bring us back again? So he doesn't feel lonely? Will he not let us leave? Is it a one time thing?
I do feel like we had something there but my god some rules don't fix morality
Palmier needs lobotomy and so do I
I'm both so mad and impressed, because this is such a good bad ending:
1. Is genuinely heartwrenching
2. Makes sense
3. Is more of a sum of choices that lead you there than one silly choice you make at the end of the game
4. The game gives you hints and from what I've seen in the guide there a few ways to prevent this
Now APART from all of that:
I really like fishing (it's so easy and simple and let's you get stupidly rich so fast)
the characters are great (really liked Quill's plot twist)
the pacing is just right
the weird morality really helped to establish that this is a different world from our own and the entire worldbuilding was both really funny and really enjoyable
our Palmier just trying to get some more time with their sister is so sweet and sad
Reading all that make me soooo happy you cannot believe! But perhaps you can add the comment [spoiler] hehe just so the others will also have a blank slate > <
Also yesh, the way to get the only way to get the True Ending is to finish Palmier's Diary Quest hehe , although having either Seth's or Ivar ending will at least let you see the boys 3 months after endings since I want your pain for being brave enough to accept the truth to mean something!
Also if you do get the True Ending, you will get another side to Ivar hehe!
The game is still in steam review queue at the moment, so I'm afraid I can't answer that for sure, but I'm hoping it will be okay and ready to publish on May 9th
in order for Thane not to end up with Fia you need to do finish the Find the Culprit quest right after defeating Meyza at the latest> Then when Thane attacks Fia instead of Winston , you need to agree to come with Thane to talk to her and apologize > this will make Thane not immediately bond with Fia the day after and open a new sleepover event with the boys > Then do not cure thane by brewing the blood potion cure > after Io’s arc is done and they insert her heart to Palmier, this should later prompt Thane to ask you to bond > Say yes
Hope this helps? Thane’s route is a bit complex because it changes a lot of other events in game so yeah, there is a chain reaction but as far as I know from my patrons they all were able to do it eventually so hopefully shud not be an issue
to open the option to hug Thane you need a kindness of minimum 50 points
Hmm that was an old answer of mine, I think it needed to be clarified that the quest itself beed to be done before Meyza a second time
First get the "Find the Culprit" Quest on the 17th of May from Keppler in the Library.
Enter the Rune Graphology and Healing Remedies Classroom then check the desk with the red doodles.
You can then turn in the quest right away or head to the sparring field and talk to Winston for more info. Either way, have this quest done BEFORE MEETING MEYZA A SECOND TIME.
After the whole biting incident with , agree to go visit her with Thane.
Answer anything for with the talk with the boys on curing Thane, but do not cure Thane. DO NOT CRAFT THE CURE POTION.
After finishing Io's arc, Thane should ask you to bond, say yes.
If you don't cure Thane and reject to bond, he will always bond with Fia. If you cure him, he won't be dateable to the point he is willing to go to your world.

Hello im following the by date guide and am just confused on the winston quest like how to report him? I have all the evidence (or the things needed by the guide)
Can you not turn in the request on the quest board? There should be a culprit item in your inventory
Hiii i was also wondering how do find the hairpin and another thing is that i tried 5 times already to get with thane but its so hard... TwT help
EDIT: after 2 more tries i did it NVM!
Just so you know, The hairpin is to go into the principal office and touch the globe, and later ask about sirens to get the diary/true ending
It has nothing to do with Thane’s route. That’s more about finishing finding the culprit quest. Hope that helps

Im so excited for the steam release!!! I was just wondering, will the itch io version and the steam version be the same, content wise? And is the game rated all ages or does it contain nsfw? Also, will you include the guide with a steam purchase as well? Thank you so much for all your hard work!!!
Steam and itch io build have the same content! As of currently it’s for all ages but more oriented to R16. If we reach 10K in gross profit then I will make a r18 dlc as that means the project is financially viable for me to make a dlc ^ ^

A common route without dating anyone is about 6 hr and with about 8-9. Hope that answers all ur questions ^ ^
somehow im on my second playthro already and i cant for the life of me understand why i cant bond to Thane, thoughts?
did you let Thane bind with Fia or cure him with a potion? If you’re stuck, the love and relationship guide should be able to help you
somehow he binds with Fia.. i dont know how to stop it from happening also the guide kinda confuses me
hmm I will try to explain the best to my abilities, but apologies if it’s hard to understand.
Basically there a lot of prequisites to get Thane. First you have to complete the Find the Culprit Quest before Meyza ask you to meet a second time. You can do so by checking the doodles on Winston’s desk and submitting the quest. Then when Thane bit Fia, agree to go and accompany him to see her.

i have many players and patrons finishing with Thane so I don’t think it’s a coding issue, but let me know.
thank you i will try it again :)
AM I DUMB I DONT KNOW HOW TO DO THE HOT COCO?????? also is there a possible discord so i dont have to comment everything here LOL
If you deliver the ink to Quill personally I think he gives you the recipe, otherwise you have to buy it at the market?
does anyone know if the game can be played on mac? i unfortunately only have a macbook and i was wondering if there was a software or something that would make it possible for me to play this game... I've been hearing so much about it and I would love to play ittt
there should be a mac version download both gor the demo and full game, does it not show for you?
You can! Just buy the game and download the "BewitchingSinners-1.2-mac.zip" one!
dunno why i got downvoted twice :'( but I was able to see it on Steam after it was released! I wasn't able to see it until the release date on steam (dunno why but sorry for the confusion! and to those who were offended..ig)
I LOVE THIS GAME!! I've only played the demo since I'm planning to buy it on steam, but I have no idea when's it releasing,, :sob:
it will be released on steam on May 3rd
thank you sm!! sorry for tsking time off your day ^_^
Please, we need the DLC! I don't want this story to end. We need more interactions with the LIs. Your game is so amazing and I just can't say goodbye to the guys :_)
thank u for that sweet comment please share the word on Bewitching Sinners if you can, it really helps a lot! I also post dlc art updates on my patreon ^ ^

Plot Reveal.
Just finished a line from the game, and while it's sad that not everyone has a good ending, I do like the complexity of the quests you portrayed, though it feels like everyone has their own haha. Anyways! I'm looking forward to the DLC and was wondering if there will be a sequel? (*^▽^*)
oh god this made me a bit scared lol. I'll still buy the game soon (probably next week), but could u tell me which characters dont have a happy ending so I can do them last? I'm kind of a happy ending sucker lmao, hard for me to read sad endings. You can put a spoiler tag and space so others dont get spoiled
I'm sorry I didn't mean to, I just edited it QAQ Sorry for my bad grammar because English is not my first language, I mean isn't there a good ending for everyone (on a path) Anyway please forgive my bad grammar, it's a great game!
I had to translate your words as it turns up as chinese for me, but I'm glad you like the game!
I think there's a language barrier happening haha, Since I didn't completely understand the reply. Its fine though! Don't worry about it.
I'm not sure if my browser automatically translated your original comment before, because I originally saw it in english instead of chinese (that's the reason why i replied in english),
Either way, sorry for the confusion!
I wanted to ask if it's normal that I've chosen a female MC and in conversations sometimes they still refer to me as Mr. and not Ms? For example this happened when I had a conversation with a fairie from the library.
ah yeah must be still missing some, but what other instances that they miscalled your Mr or Ms? I think this is the only remaining one?
It seemed there was another moment where someone referred to me as a "dude" but I'm not 100% sure. I will check it when I replay the game)
ah dude is common. Idk in the us but in my culture we use dude for both girls n boys among friends, but thanks for the info and let me know if I miss anything else!
Also I'm not sure if in this conversation with Thane, Quill and Arshem it was a bug that Thane used "them" when talking about my MC, since she is female with female pronouns. But maybe by "them" Thane meant MC and Quill. I'm really not sure if it's a bug. Sorry if I'm bothering you for nothing.
It refers to the mc, I admit sometimes there are a few sentences that uses them/they instead as I feel it fits the vibe better and can be used but I can see why it may seem like a bug so thanks! ^ ^
Hi! When the game reaches 20k gross profit (It will, it will!!) will the R18 patch be free to those who have already purchased the game or a DLC side game? Also, am I allowed to know what it's reached so far? Thank you
so far it has reached around 7K in gross. Which considering the game has only been out for 4 days, dats great! Very thankful for u guys’ enthusiasm
The r18 patch will be a paid dlc, as I know some fans of this game might be on the younger side so I don’t want it to be patch into the base game as is. But the r18 dlc will be capped at 2-4 USD max (with vers option for male mc) as for the witch route target dlc at 20K gross profit I am still pending on price for the witch routes . i know what I want to do but not sure on the word count or cg count for that yet. ^^
Thank u for supporting the game and Please spread the word of the game on social media as it really helps a lot!
Would it be possible to make a post on how sales are doing after the first week of release? Lol
I mean I could but idk seems a bit innapropriate as an announcement post. This is something of my own limitations/flaws as I had a very rough economic patch before Sinners demo, and I wud feel bad looking at other devs or writers profit numbers. So I wud just post if the goal is reached.
I will answer in a thread tho. Like right now its in the 7.3K mark
I totally understand, no worries :) can I please have another update?
85% to the first dlc goal ^ ^
Thanks for the wonderful game! Because I can not use the paypal, I'd like to know whether the R18+ dlc will be released on the steam.( although it might be unavailable in my country, so sad! Really like your game!
i have posted an r18 game on steam before so should be possible but we will see later as the rules change over time as well
I just finished playing Bewitching Sinners for the second time in three days and I'm honestly impressed by the amount of content and the quality of this game —Even more knowing it was created in 1 year and a half 💕
I absolutely loved the interactivity of the gameplay, and I spent so many hours exploring the map, talking with each person and going back to do as many choices I could make.
The dialogues and interactions between all the characters were both funny and entertaining.
[Spoiler and question about the ending]
Right now I've done:
- Meyza's Happy Ending
- Io's Happy Ending
- Ivar's Happy Ending
- Seth's Happy Ending
- Seth Alternative Ending
- Palmier's Happy Ending (I think?)
But this is where I'm confused... because I did everything for "Palmier's Happy Ending": asked for the truth with Ivar, unlocked the Diary quest & Finished the Diary Quest, but the Ending was called "Your Happy Ending" so I'm not sure if I got the right one or if I messed something up and got the true "Your Happy Ending" (Ignorance is Bliss) instead of Palmier's Happy Ending... 😭
Basically, in the one I got, we go put the heart in "Non-MC-Palmier", he wakes up, we celebrate the MC departure, then Palmier (The MC) is back home with one of the guy, they meet their neighbours and then we have a glimpse of "Non-MC-Palmier" world were he talks about the witches and summon "Furry-Ivar"
Is it "Your Happy Ending" or "Palmier's Happy Ending" ? 🥲
Anyway, thank you for this game! It was amazing <3
ah that’s the right one it was kinda a pun since you know non mc and mc are technically the same person so i used your for both. you have all endings! Sorry for the confusion
No worries! I'm relieved to hear that ahah, I just wanted to make sure!
Also, I was wonderding, is it possible for the MC to go back to his world without a boyfriend? (If he rejects the crushes when they ask him or if we choose to keep going for Thane's interactions/scenes even when he is bonded with Fia/or cured)
Or will the game automatically makes us go with the crush we have the higher score with?
you can go back to your world single. If you do this and have one of the bad endings and truth tag on, you all will play dnd with the boys of mc’s world haha
I can't believe the game came out! I can't express how happy I am right now!!
Spoilers
Arshem really got done dirty by our doppelganger. Like WTF… I was shocked. WHY are they like that!!! And the amount of fear I had anticipating his reaction to finding out our true identity ☠️ Miss Xero please stop breaking my heart!
Ditto, he was my first route and i was like if i was him i wouldn't even forgive the doppelganger lol
RIGHT?? Spoiler
The fact that he can still even save you in that moment, like he still holds you closest to his heart… that’s a real dedicated/obsessed man right there. And then the roles reversed and I chased him around, talk to me dammit!!! Not me missing his sweet talk and softness for our character 😭😂
Ivar doesn't have a route with a happy ending yet right? will he ever have a route? I'd like to somehow make him happy his story resonates in a way I wasn't expecting.
I mean i got a ending that said it was his happy ending, didnt seem very happy though
Hmm if u mean the happy in our standards, as of right now, no. The closest is maybe in Palmier’s (the non mc one) True Ending. And the more revenge version of happy is his own happy ending.
if I reach a 20K gross profit, I do plan a dlc for ivar not only a route but an ending
Well Fingers crossed its reached then, He's a horribly tragic character. Characters with past of SA tend to resonate with me as someone who is a victim of that myself, (Though I say past its never really over for him is it?)
I wish there was an option to say to him he has sad eyes because personally, I think he does even if that's not mentioned. How could you not?
Unrelated little option of mine Personally id rather have a route for Siren boy rather then Seth as honestly I think Seth is too dislikeable to have his own route but then siren boy is soul bounded so boo
very understandable, tbh Irwin was supposed to be an mc of another game I scrapped so I get it and yes Seth is an ass, but like Io, Kor and Ivar, he has a story to tell (which I had to cut for time in the current game) so I want to share it if I can!
Also, thank you for saying he resonated with u, though I am sorry for the reason. I hope ur doing well.
Definitely worth the money imo. I feel like I'm gonna have to space my runs out more, getting Palmier's ending first then Ivar's. I didn't think it'd be so drastic, but I love that it went there. All the characters were really enjoyable.
i can't believe it's finally complete , while i was cleaning my gmail i found the notice lmao if not i would had not known !
Look forward for the Steam release! I absolutely loved the demo so can’t wait to play! One question; how much time can I expect to spend for each route and for completionist? I saw that you put “days or more” per session but want a more accurate estimate, if possible? Thank you so much for making this game!
when I try to test everything (and I do mean everything from each routes and each ending) it took me over 20 hrs lol. There were a lot of replays. Ina sum though per ending is about 8 hours.
thanks a lot for your answer! I love to play through every single routes in dating sims so this will be quite the ride
I simply could not wait any longer for the steam release so I went ahead and got it, absolutely love the story so far! There’s so much to explore and I’m obsessed. Arshem is definitely a favorite so far… but this man has issues!!
Congrats on release!! I cant really afford to buy the game rn but hopefully i can try to buy it once it comes out on steam. Really loved the game when i played the demo so Congratssss
there was no way I was going to wait for steam to not be slow so I bought it here I did get to play some and what I played was amazing of course I have my favorite guy already Arshem
Steam really be slow though, I submitted the build for review on the 18th for review. And from my experience they do be taking 5 business days instead of 2-3, well there was a weekend so I understand
My game crashes when I try to load a save file, and it will not let me start from a save. It makes me restart the game fully. Is there something I can fix
Have you tried moving all the saves from the previous v 1.1 to the new v 1.2 game folder? If the problem persists then for now please play the v 1.1 version you previously downloaded as I try to see and find a fix
I'm sorry for this inconvenience , as this is a new issue
can i only pay with paypal? pls someone say no
for now yes, sorry as Im still testing if I use a system that allows for itch io to take stripe, will the money go to my account or not. Once I know it works then I will change it so it doesn’t only accept paypal. This process takes 10 days or so to test.
Hey! First of all, congratulations!! I've been waiting for the release of the game so eagerly!! The artwork is absolutely stunning, and the story is very compelling.
So, I might need help with locating the game key you sent. "itch io Patreon access link" to all those who have been previously subbed to the ~15€ tier, I just cant seem to be able to locate mine.
What to do? Been through Itch like a madwoman, trying to find it...
Thank you and sorry!!!
(I sent the same msg on Patreon too, didn't know which you preferred for these sort of messages.)
Sent you the link via Patreon, so sorry for the delay in response, been hectic!
wow okay I cant believe it's been almost 10 months since I finished the demo. the art is gorg. I just finished my first run after 9ish hours and I'm really interested in how the story could end any differently. also so hoping for the 20k goal in your other post, seth/ivar routes would be insane.
but I'm still confused on how the curiosity/honesty/kindness stats affect anything. I ended with 20 kindness and was still called a goody two shoes so I don't think that's it. also, the gifting is kinda confusing. it always shows up as none, like the honey pops I crafted before a date
Hi! Hoped you enjoyed the game!
Still awhile for 20K but we've passed the halfway point for the 10K gross profit though! So hopefully it keeps going I can publicly release the r18 DLC here when it's done
The kindness/honesty/curiosity help a lot with your exploration and love route choices.
For example you can't hug Thane in the late night lake event unless your kindness is at 50 , Can't hug Quill either during his love route event if your kindness is below 20. The siren will snap at you for touching them if your kindness is too low.
Some of MC's dialogue will automatically be brutally honest if their honesty is above a certain point. Like inappropriately blurting out they like soap operas in the lake awakening event. For curiosity, you need at least 50 to reach parchment 7, etc
Everyone will still call you a goody two shoes though, because let's be honest... you're a saint compared to any of them in their world.
For gifts, they should have popped up as I seem to have no issues with it, but I'll try to test that out in other computers, may I know your device? Mac? Windows?
it was definitely a treat, I actually laughed aloud a lot which I don't think has ever happened to me with VN, or at least for a long time. fingers crossed for continued momentum!
& thanks for the explanation, I was so confused with the crossed out options. huge + for replayability.
I played on Win 11 on version 1.1 (I don’t know if it was fixed in 1.2). I’ll try and see what’s going on next time I’m able.
absolutely loved playing this game. i've had a couple of endings, and romanced 3/4, definitely worth the money!! if there's ever going to be a ivar's route (either here or patreon), you bet i'm going to buy it, bc ouuuff i love him. he's complicated and what not, but he's my fave. soo might just romance his son for now lol
I love it so much. I love Arshem more than I should TvT
I am so excited to play this game. I got my key from Patreon, I had been waiting for this game to release for a long time, and it's finally here. Thank you for making this game.
Hi ! I saw you already said to another player we could pay with paypal or stripe but when I want to pay itch.io only propose paypal. I verified with another game which proposes paypal and stripe. Did I miss something somewhere ? Sorry to bother you with this. *Hides.* (Unfortunately Steam is not an option for me.)
I realize now why my game only allows paypal, but I will get back to you on that as I am testing something with the payment method first
Nop. I still can't. I only get the paypal option.
Great ! I'll cross my fingers ! ~
Hello ! I was hoping to hear some good news from you ~. Did you find a solution to buy your game with a normal cb card and no paypal account ? I know another creator had this problem once and told in a post (I think or maybe it was a reply) she just had to check a case. I hope to play your game soon and if it's not possible still thank you to have tried. Your demo was a delight to play ! ~
if you are still using cc to pay, have you tried via steam? I have tried to enable the cc but had reasons to just keep using paypal
Unfortunately it's more expensive on Steam for my country than on itch.io, plus I have an issue with my Steam account so I won't buy it on Steam.
AHH OMG ITS FINISHED??? i remember playing the demo when it first came out and loved it !! tried exploring everything and doing all the missions etc.
am sadly a broke student so cant afford to buy the game rn but i will in the future !!
congrats to u and lots of love <33
OMG I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG
i do have a question when will it be available on steam?
may 9th, assuming the build passes their review it’s still in review queue so I can’t say for sure but fingers crossed
[spoiler] Man getting that Ivar ending on first playthrough is foul. I'm so mad!Especially since game gave me the hints, I just tralalaed because man pretty and sad.
why is a rune there?don't worry about it babygirl okay yippie!I'm both so mad and impressed, because this is such a good bad ending:
1. Is genuinely heartwrenching
2. Makes sense
3. Is more of a sum of choices that lead you there than one silly choice you make at the end of the game
4. The game gives you hints and from what I've seen in the guide there a few ways to prevent this
Now APART from all of that:
I had to take a nap before writing this cheers
Reading all that make me soooo happy you cannot believe! But perhaps you can add the comment [spoiler] hehe just so the others will also have a blank slate > <
Also yesh, the way to get the only way to get the True Ending is to finish Palmier's Diary Quest hehe , although having either Seth's or Ivar ending will at least let you see the boys 3 months after endings since I want your pain for being brave enough to accept the truth to mean something!
Also if you do get the True Ending, you will get another side to Ivar hehe!
I'm so glad to see its official release! I had a blast playing the demo, the writing is fun and the art is stunning
Can't wait for the game's Steam release since I don't have a Paypal lol
The game is still in steam review queue at the moment, so I'm afraid I can't answer that for sure, but I'm hoping it will be okay and ready to publish on May 9th
TY for replying! I hope things go well with the review queue
im sorta confused i followed the guide (i think hehe) and Thane still ends up with Fia T-T
also how do you unlock the option to hug Thane in the fish... scene ??
in order for Thane not to end up with Fia you need to do finish the Find the Culprit quest right after defeating Meyza at the latest> Then when Thane attacks Fia instead of Winston , you need to agree to come with Thane to talk to her and apologize > this will make Thane not immediately bond with Fia the day after and open a new sleepover event with the boys > Then do not cure thane by brewing the blood potion cure > after Io’s arc is done and they insert her heart to Palmier, this should later prompt Thane to ask you to bond > Say yes
Hope this helps? Thane’s route is a bit complex because it changes a lot of other events in game so yeah, there is a chain reaction but as far as I know from my patrons they all were able to do it eventually so hopefully shud not be an issue
to open the option to hug Thane you need a kindness of minimum 50 points
thank you sm !! <3
even after i complete the find the culprit quest after defeating meyza, I never get the option to talk with Fia with Thane....what am i doing wrong?
Hmm that was an old answer of mine, I think it needed to be clarified that the quest itself beed to be done before Meyza a second time
If you don't cure Thane and reject to bond, he will always bond with Fia. If you cure him, he won't be dateable to the point he is willing to go to your world.
