Ardor for Depravity - Dev Log 03 (Patreon)

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. 

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.

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.   

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.

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.

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.
