Ardor for Depravity - Dev Log 03
Ardor for Depravity - version 0.30
Thank you!
First, I would like to thank everyone who has continued supporting this project in any way. I appreciate it very much and I'll try to keep delivering enjoyable experiences for all of you. Again, thank you all, and now let's look at what's new in this update.

Ardor for Depravity - v0.30
This post is a Dev Log in which I go over the new additions to the game as well as some of the other improvements that have been made. If you are only interested in the game, you can access the download on Itch.io or through these posts on SubscribeStar or Patreon. Head nurse Sophia in the Hospital.
Update 0.30 brings a new quest chain in the Wizard Tower, a continuation of the Main Story line, and several new events in each of the Corruption Quest chains. This update adds about two hours of gameplay, many lewd scenes and plenty of new content. This update also contains many improvements, bug fixes and much more.

Continuation of the Main Story
Emily will undergo more training within the Sisterhood and she will keep investigating it from the inside. This means she will need to continue fulfilling her obligations as the Sister of the Order. Many new challenges await her to overcome as she gets closer and closer to finding her sister Kira. But not everything seems to be that simple and many of the Sisterhood's secrets will be revealed as Emily continues her investigation. Emily reaching for a ring lying on a table. You can expect more than 20 new quests and events in this update that revolve around the Sisterhood. These events focus on Emily having sex with men for the first time as well as some lesbian encounters and exhibitionism. These events will further Emily's corruption with a clear progression towards more and more depraved sexual acts.

The Main Quest line in this update consists of Emily continuing to gain trust of the Sisterhood, and raising her reputation by performing lewd tasks within the Order. Many of these events will directly follow the established duties that she is expected to fulfill. Emily will also gain access to one new location where she can work, and more importantly, continue her investigation.

The Hospital
In the Hospital, Emily will be taught how to heal and properly treat the patients suffering from various illnesses there. With the proper guidance from the fellow Sisters that work there Emily will be able to learn that her pleasure is a powerful tool that she can use to lessen the suffering of the patients.

From the get go this selfless task will be a difficult one for Emily. However, through her compassion and her willingness to help people, she will be able to endure and will sacrifice of her body for the greater good. At first, she will not like providing the 'special' treatments to the patients, but bit by bit she will start to enjoy herself as well. Ryna and Emily looking through some old books.
Wizard Tower
A completely new quest line comes in this update giving Emily hope of a different way of finding her sister. Emily will try to seek the help of an Old Wizard, but when that is not an option, she will instead befriend a young wizard's apprentice named Ryna. Together they will have to practice all kinds of magic, which will bring many lewd scenarios and opportunities for corruption for both Ryna and Emily.

New Replay Feature
For a better overall player experience there will be an in-game feature that will allow you to replay some of the events directly in the game. This not only allows players to re-experience some of the scenes, but also has a mechanical component that allows players to see Emily's progress and further solidifies her transformation.

New Events in the Corruption Quest Lines
In this update, Emily's corruption will reach new depths of depravity as she progresses through the Main Quest line, and with that several new events in the Corruption Quest lines will become available. This update focuses on Emily having sex with men for the first time (and then a second time, a third time, a fourth time, and so on), which means that the scenes in the corruption quest lines will heavily revolve around that particular sexual activity. You can expect about 20 new events that have been added to the corruption quest lines for you to enjoy.

Some Other Notable Changes
The requirement to join the Sisterhood to progress with the Corruption Quest lines has been removed and was replaced by the Sanity system activating automatically upon reaching those events. I also added a warning to those events to emphasize the importance of joining the Sisterhood and the benefits it provides. This means that it will be possible to do these events without joining the Sisterhood, but as the Lord's Altar, the Divine Grace, and the permanent upgrades are an integral part of this system, you might have a difficult time managing Emily's Sanity without them.Emily having sex on the table in the Bathhouse. An automatic replay system of old events for all the Tavern scenes if the stat requirement for the next event was not met has also been added to the game. The warning about not having enough stats still remains there, but then it plays a modified version of the previous Tavern event. This will give the players smoother experience when working in the Tavern every night. These events won't give any corruption but will be a good opportunity for Emily to earn additional Gold and Sexual Experience points. Emily looking slightly worried at night in the Park.
Next Goals and Plans
This update marks yet another significant milestone for Emily on her journey, and there are many more lewd events already planned for her. She will sink more and more into pleasure and lust as her corruption progresses further. You can expect even more exciting scenes of Emily performing various sexual acts in the coming updates.
Also, with the release of this update (0.30), the previous version of the game (0.20) becomes officially available free to download for everyone. You can download that previous version from the game page on Itch.io. Emily sitting on a bench in a town square.

Ardor for Depravity - Version 0.3 Updated Development Status
Emily sitting on the floor in the Confessional.
Expectations
After several months of hard work, I bring you another public development update where I will go over the status of the next version of the game. This is primarily aimed at those who are not subscribed here on SubscribeStar or on Patreon in order to provide everyone with some news. The information below will mainly be about what I have already done and not about a concrete timeline or the exact date when the update will be finished. However, with that being said, I can now say with great certainty that the update will be released sometime in October. I will announce the specific release date when we get closer to it and I'm confident in my ability to finish the update by that time.

Update Status
For the past three months, I have been building sets, posing the characters and finally rendering the events that will be in the next update. I'm still in the middle of that process but there are only about 15 events left to render (from the planned 50), so the majority of the images are done. Ryna enjoying herself in the wizard study. First, I started with the new quest line in the Tower where Emily will befriend a wizard's apprentice, Ryna, with whom she will experience many exciting scenarios and the other facets of the corruption as well. These scenes gave me the opportunity to explore a different theme of sexual content as these events will revolve more around magic, summoning and overall inversion of Emily's role in these kinds of situations.

The next thing I did was the scenes for the main quest line where Emily will continue looking for her missing sister Kira. This search will bring her to a new location, the Hospital, where Emily will need to fit in in order to continue her investigation. This means that she will need to learn how to treat the ill, and how, through her body, to heal the patients in more ways than one.

Emily will continue to fulfill her duties as the Sister of the Order as well and I have made several scenes for each of her obligations in the Sisterhood. These include the Bathhouse Spa, The Confessional and lessons with Olivia, and will further Emily's corruption with many sexual encounters of all kinds, ranging from exhibitionism and lesbian scenarios to servicing men with her body and eventually having sex with them.

The last set of events is the Corruption Quest lines that are not part of Emily's sisterly duties in the Order. I have managed to do scenes in the Bathhouse - where Emily will continue her escapades with the Voyeur, the Homeless Shelter - where Emily will experience the attention of more than one man at the same time, and finally the Tavern - where Emily will learn how to let go of her inhibitions and finally fully service all the guests there. Emily standing near one of the tables in the Tavern. The only events that remain to be done are some in the Tavern and those in the Market. There, I plan to do more events as Emily will descend more and more into depravity, and she will seek more opportunities to satisfy her growing lust. After I render and finish all those events (and some other miscellaneous stuff as well) then the update will be ready for release. Emily and Olivia on their second pilgrimage to the secluded shrine. There is a lot of content planned for this particular update and I want to do it right so please bear with me while we get to the finish line. And also, see you in October when I have more news to share about the exact release date for the next update.

New Character - Wizard's Apprentice Ryna.
Expectations
For this development cycle I want to do things a little differently. Every couple of months or so, I will post a public update that will go over the status of the development of the next version of the game. This is primarily aimed at those who are not subscribed here on SubscribeStar or on Pateron in order to provide everyone with some news. The information below will mainly be about what I have already done and not about a concrete timeline or the exact date when the update will be finished. How long it will take me to do everything is very difficult to predict, so I can only ask you to be a little patient. The update will be released when it's done™.
New functionality - Replaying old events from within the game itself.
Update Status
I have opted for the same development process as I did with the previous update and which has worked quite well. I have taken some time to really flesh out the rest of the game in pre-production. Before I started working on anything I wanted to lay out almost everything in Excel to have a clear picture of what I want to do. This is basically an outline of every quest and event that I want to have in the game.
Updates to Lord's Altar UI
When I was happy with this structure I implemented these quests in game without the actual dialogue and images. Meaning that I have made only working shells of the events that will be later filled with the actual dialogue and images. Already I have implemented over 100+ quests that will serve as a backbone for the next several updates. Of course, not all of them will be finished in the next version, but I now have a clear path forward for the future.
New Location - Wizard's Tower in the evening.
With this all completed I have moved to writing the actual events. In this stage I have focused on the next update only and I have written all the dialogue that will be in that next update. This took me quite some time as the script for the next update alone is more than 100 pages long. However, this is not very dense text as the game dialogue tends to have shorter sentences. I have written about 50 new events that are very similar in length to the previous ones. I think that about 3-5 minutes of read time per event is in that sweet spot where not everything happens instantaneously, but also there is not much unnecessary filler.

With all of the game structure and writing finished I can now move to actually pose the characters and render the final images for each new event that needs them. And that is where we are right now in terms of the development progress on the next update. However, I want to also mention that making these images and animations is by far the most time consuming thing about the development. That is why I started with the structure and writing first, as this will make the images for the events way easier to do when the scenes are basically done. For comparison, it took me two weeks to plan and implement everything into the game for the next update, a month and a half to write everything and it will take me several months to render all the images.
See you in a couple of months when I have more news to share.

Ardor for Depravity - Version 0.20
Thank you
First and foremost I want to thank everyone who showed their interest in the game. Your continued support in any form is very much appreciated. Seeing that thousands of people played the Demo on Steam alone really warmed my heart. Thank you again to all of you and let's look at what's new in this update.

Update 0.20 brings an exciting continuation of the Main Story line for Emily in the Sisterhood and several new events in each of the Corruption Quest chains. This update adds about two hours of game-play, many lewd scenes and plenty of new content. The update also contains one major new mechanic and some smaller ones, many improvements, bug fixes and much more.
Continuation of the Main StoryEmily and Olivia praying in the Altar room.
Emily's quest to find her sister continues, but nothing is as easy as it seems. Now that she has joined the Sisterhood, she needs to get used to living in the Monastery and learn the ways of the Order. Sometimes that means doing things that Emily is not very comfortable doing yet. Zara entering Emily's new room in the Monastery. The Main Quest line in this update consists of Emily gaining trust of the Sisterhood, raising her reputation by performing task within the Order. From learning about various rituals and prayers, adventures in the night to working for the Sisterhood and fulfilling her obligations as a Sister. Now that Emily's corruption has progressed somewhat a majority of these events are about sex and sexual stuff.Emily learning how to do proper massages in the Bathhouse Spa. You can expect more than 20 new quests/events in this update that revolve around the Sisterhood. These events focus on Emily exploring her bisexual side, exhibitionism, pleasuring men with her mouth and body and some mild BDSM and orgasm denial. These events will further Emily's corruption as well with a clear progression towards more and more depraved sexual acts.Emily's mind breaking after losing to much Sanity..
The Sanity Mechanic
From this update on, players will need to be mindful about Emily's state of mind and not to overwhelm her with lewd experiences that she cannot handle. The Emily's continued exposure to sexual acts will have a negative effect on her psyche, and without proper management with some relaxing activities will have disastrous consequences for her. This is a lightweight system that introduces some push-back in order to add some slight friction between the players and the game.

Permanent Talent Like Upgrades
This constant drain on Emily's sanity by the lewd events will be somewhat mitigated by introduction of permanent talent-like upgrades. Players will be able to invest Emily's accumulated corruption into these very powerful upgrades (do not underestimate or ignore them). As Emily progresses and gains more and more corruption it will be easier for her to endure the stress that these lewd events have on her. In this update you will be able to gain only some of these upgrades but eventually you will have everything, so don't stress too much about putting the points into a wrong thing.

New Events in the Corruption Quest Lines
In this update Emily's corruption will progress through the Main Quest line into new depths of depravity and with that several new events in the Corruption Quest lines will become available. In the Tavern Emily will lose more and more of her working attire until she is working completely nude. In the Market similar fate awaits for her as the marketing tactics she needs to deploy will mean for her to wear less and less clothes. In the Homeless Shelter Emily will again be helping those in need but this time they are more persistent and demanding for her to undress during the food distribution. Overall about 15 new events have been added to the Corruption Quest lines for you to enjoy.

Next Goals and Plans
This update marks yet another significant milestone for Emily on her journey, and there are many more lewd events already planned for her. She will sink more and more into pleasure and lust as her corruption progresses further. The next update will bring more sexual acts for Emily to perform as her search for her sister continues.Zara visiting Emily in her room at the night.

Ardor for Depravity - Dev Log 01
Thank you
First I want to thank anyone who supported the initial release of the game. We are just getting started and there is plenty more to come in terms of content. Let's look at what is new in this update.
Development Update
It has been four month since the initial release of the game and the time has come for a new update. I have been working on the next game version and it's finally ready for release. This update consists of a continuation of the Main Quest Line, as well as the other corruption events. This means many new events for you to experience and guide Emily through. Also with every update my aim is to add a new flavor or something fresh to explore and this time it's The Market (More on that bellow).
This post is a Dev Log in which I go over the new stuff in the game as well some of the other improvements that has been made. If you are only interested in the game, you can access the download in this SubscribeStar Post or you can check out the game on Itch.io where you can download the game as well.
Continuation of the Main Story
After the events in the Confessional the story continues and Emily has to navigate her way through all sorts of perils that block her way. There will be new locations, new and returning characters. Many lewd scenarios and precarious situations await Emily on her quest.
Currently the game is structured with the Main Story line and a complementary set of other corruption quest lines that help with the progression and show Emily's slow descent. The Main Story line will be the main vehicle for delivering the story with lewd events not being the focus but rest assured there will be plenty of those there as well. Also as Emily progresses on her journey more and more of those story quests will revolve around lewd events. All of the other quest chains will focus on sex in all flavors.
The Market
Start of new event line in the Market consisting of Emily gradually losing more and more of her clothes as she works in the Merchant's stall filled with "Challenges" and customer requests which she reluctantly fulfils.
The Market flavor is exhibitionism and public nudity in the context of getting used to being naked in public where people want to see you naked and encourage you to remove your clothes but you are very reluctant to do so. Other flavors of exhibitionism like the thrill of being naked somewhere you are not supposed to be and will be punished if anyone finds out, are planed for a different set of events.
Improvements to indoor rendering and other stuff
As an ongoing effort to improve the visual presentation of the game I have tried to improve the rendering pipeline to subtly add some shadows and highlights to indoor renders. My hope that this change will make the renders better and does not impact the render time too much.
There is always a trade off between fidelity and the speed of rendering and my approach before was more towards speed and that the resulting image is good enough but the indoor scenes rendered this way were way to flat. With minimal shadows and highlight it felt a little unnatural so I have decided to tweak the rendering process slightly to add these subtle shadows and highlights.
The improvements to displayed image quality is a never ending process and I'll make tweaks and adjustments in the future. I want to provide a realistic images that you can get immersed in, a world that is believable, captivating story and of course the lewd scenarios to wet your appetite for some action.
I also completely redone how images are handled and stored in the game files, resulting in much smaller game size. The game went from nearly 5GB to 1GB which is a lot better and more sustainable for the future. The cost of course is that image quality is slightly worse but it should not be noticeable.
Added voice acting, sounds, sound effects and music. I cannot easily showcase it here but the game now features a chill music that should make playing the game more enjoyable. During sex scenes and animations - voiced moans, climaxes and various lewd sound effects have been added to make the scenes and animations more engaging.
Next Goals and Plans
This update marks a significant milestone for Emily on her journey and is one of the pivotal points on her descend into pleasure and depravity. A lot is already planed for her next steps, mainly the continuation of the Main Story as well as the side corruption events with many predicaments and exciting situations that she will find herself in.
I also plan to release a demo some time soon but a lot of things need to be sorted out before that is possible.
Closing Thoughts
There are still plenty of things for Emily to do and experience before fully unlocking her carnal true self, before being driven only by her most primal desires. Her journey being about encountering all kinds of flavors of sex and her gradually liking them more and more. And even after that there will be a lot of room to explore these flavors to the fullest. That means a lot of lewd content to come so stay tuned for the next Dev Log. I will try do more regular ones but only if something significant warrants one - like a demo or a next update. Though I am not sure when that will be so watch this space for anything. If you want more regular weekly updates - you can support me on Patreon or Subscribestar where I post weekly updates with 4k renders that I do for the game that end up there in much lower quality.
It's not necessary but every bit helps.
And once again I want to thank you for any support, it's very much appreciated.
