Im really enjoying this so far and it's probably gotta be my favorite visual novel I've seen on itch.io and I also really enjoy the story and characters I'm super excited for the final release.
Thanks! Make sure to follow our socials and join the discord so you don't miss out on any updates!
Hey there, your Kickstarter had a lot of potential, so if you're interested I open my service as UI designer for more polished release. Feel free to browse my portfolio for considerations
I'll keep it mind! Thanks
Hey there!
Since I noticed the kickstarter was relaunched I went and pledged (managed to get in on time this time!), and that in turn made me realize there's a new demo now, so I've played that too. But I'm actually a bit confused by it - the previous one I played had more scenes before the infiltration, with a few choices there, including at school for example, while now the only one we have is the shower one. I'm wondering why is that? I liked to have these not only for character developement, but also to simply not start the game with a long no-choice segment.
Now, I understand there must be a reason for it and it's fine! But I'm a bit stumped as to what it may be, so I thought I may just as well ask.
Hi! No worries! Those scenes will be included again in the full release. They were temporarily removed so the demo could better highlight its NSFW appeal, which has actually helped the Kickstarter perform much better than the previous attempt (and thank you so much for your support!)
That said, those scenes will absolutely return. The final game is designed to prioritize story just as much as visuals, staying true to the original vision. This adjustment was only made to improve pacing within the demo’s limited scope!
Ooh I see! Thank you so much! I was really confused, but it's nice to know it's only temporary! Though funnily enough I actually skipped all NSFW stuff (I have it enabled, I just didn't pick these options).
I also linked to the kickstarter in the "promotion" rooms of a couple of discord servers I'm on, so hopefully that helps with the last few percent rush of the campaign!
Thank you so much! Very appreciated!
Well, I may or may not have decided to go overboard with the pledge and upgrading it "a tiny bit" (I have an NPC idea that I like). So uh... congrats on being funded?
Yooo!!! Thank you so much!!!! I'll make the announcement in a bit!
New Build is just some spelling and minor bug fixing. Also changed the message at the end of the demo to include the Raffle Announcement with its respective link!
😔¿no hay actualización en español?😢
I hope this get continued cuz it's my favourite 😋
Since I've been getting some questions about it. To see all NSFW scenes and variations you need to progress through the story normally, just make sure to have the SFW filter turned off to see the scenes.
So.... how do i unlock the last gallery pic? Asking for a friend.
The last Illustration is obtained regardless of your choice. To avoid spoilers just know that if you finish all the content in the update you should have this unlocked.
huh i went throught both routes and finished up to the new update and didnt get it at the end 🤔
Sorry for the mixup! It was a calling variable issue. It'll be fixed by next update!!
righty-o 🫡
Definitely looking forward to Dom's route! Lev doesn't really appeal to me much but a grumpy alpha leader that has really only ever wanted to find his mate? Yeah sign me up. I live for that kinda stuff and I have a feeling he might be kind of a secret softy under his very misinterpreted first impression...? At least I hope so lol.
Only time will tell ):)
Que decepción
Android esta actualizado?
Yes, but the update is currently only available in english
Sí, pero la actualización actualmente solo está disponible en inglés.
Even though the demo was short, I found the setting and characters of this VN very appealing, and I think the voice acting is a big plus for this game.
Glad you enjoyed it!
this is such, such a great VN and I cant wait for a next update. Absolutely amazing 10/10
Glad you enjoyed it! Next update arrives for patreons on April 5th and a week later for public release!
Demo V2 Releases for Patreons on April 18th and on the 25th for full Public access!

Discovered this by chance today, and I'm sad I didn't know about it before, though still grateful you're planning on working on it even if the kickstarter didn't work out.
Also, funnily enough, I got an achievement for obtaining max affinity points for Dom on my first playthrough, which... says a lot about me I guess. For various reasons I wasn't planning on doing Lev's route though, so I guess it works out for me!
Oh and unrelated, but it's actually sort of nice to have a werewolf story with proper pack hierarchy and all that isn't an omegaverse story! In recent years, people seem to have been confusing the two styles of stories or combining them, so this is nice to have! Don't get me wrong, I enjoy both, but I prefer them to be separate most of the time.
Very nice start. Can't wait to see where this is going
Found this through NaokyCooper from the vn Spanish community and had to try it for myself! No regrets, loved it ,no matter how many times ppl tell me these kind of story elements are cliche now or overused ,I just love them sm! And the story just leaves me wanting more too! Enjoy it a lot so far ,can't wait :)!
Thanks for your comment! Glad you enjoyed the demo :)
Do you really think it is cliché? I was kept wondering how this society is, how much stronger a regular wolf is from human and the differences among a regular and a alpha wolf? Do they all berserker on humans? even if it risks to kill someone mate? does alpha berserker on inferiour wolves as well? Are human divided too? I really like dystopian stories. Do you recommend some for me?
I did wonder those things, but that is on itself a very common trope in the ABO bl genre (even if this one lacks omegas , personally I'm *more* than happy at the exclusion of them and their shenanigans). I think the writers nailed a good interpretation of the trope , it felt more realistic, or grounded in a sense , something that should feel even better when the things the wolves have done come to light while still having the intrigue and drama (big bad wolf's mate turns out to be the very ppl he is oppressing).
I cannot honestly recommend much ,as these stories I consume them through AO3 ,and in big quantities, let's just say the quality varies ,but I'm hardly a qualified judge lol , I'm way too biased, a quick search on AO3 will give you a whopping 200 000 results ,from there I recommend narrowing down what you like through other tags till the number is more manageable .
you got me lost on your recommendation man...
Sorry I guess I guess I didn't took into account someone who isn't as involved in the genre would find the way I explained it nonsensical 😅.
In better words, there is this website called Archive of our own, or AO3 for short, there anyone is able to post their stories/fanfics without much restrictions. Search for the tag "ABO" Will give you all the stories containing werewolves and the alpha beta etc dynamics, but since the number of stories utilizing this genre is so large (200k and counting) ,you would need to reduce this number further by adding other tags, such as Original content (excludes fanfics of characters) and mlm (gay men) . From there is just a question of searching and reading synopsis/descriptions till something interests you
sounds very interesting! thank you!
this vn is just so amazing 10/10 regretting not playing it sooner
Glad you enjoyed it!
I think there is a gender error, after atlas and sophie have a talk after class kane says, yeah right. Still be cautious with that one, "his" dad is one of the pack beta's. If kane is referring to Sophie, it should be "her" dad?
Fixed! Thanks for reporting it.
The demo was really good and high quality, keep up the amazing work :)
Thanks! Happy you enjoyed it!
Looks exciting ✌🏻
Thanks! Hope you enjoy :D
Who is the redhead?
Childhood friend
Not a romance interest?
Lev, the redhead, is one of the two romantic interests in the game.
No dowloadable build yet?
The demo will be available to the public exactly a month from today, on November 29th
I'll admit I'm intrigued. Is that Dominik's human form on the left or does he spend all his time as a werewolf?
Dominik is indeed the person on the left side of the game's banner. (In his human form!) In the fourth screenshot, though barely visible, you can see his werewolf form
Well you have my attention! Very interested by the setting, designs look pretty good too , can't wait !
Thanks! Hope you enjoy it :)
just let us know when it is released
Absolutely! If you're following me or this page, you'll get a notification when the demo is released. I'll also share an official announcement on our social media, so stay tuned!
btw who is who? is the guy in green the MC?
That's Kane—not the main character, just a supporting one. But don't worry, you'll meet Atlas soon enough ;)
Can't wait for the demo!!!
Thanks!
