What do you think is the future of video games?

In 20, 50 even 100 years, what do you think gaming will look like? Will the hardware have changed in any drastic way, or will it be the same sort of setup, just with more power? What about the games themselves? Will, PC, Console, & Mobile gaming still be separated, or will all games be on all platforms? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

We’ve now finished work on the bedroom music, meaning we’re officially done with all the music in the game. Bug Fixing We’ve also been concentrating a lot of our efforts on fixing bugs across the game and will continue to do so.

Do you use game wikis?

Game wikis are amazing. Sometimes you look at them to find out how things work. Maybe they weren't explained perfectly. Sometimes you liked the lore of the game so much that you go looking for more on the wiki. And sometimes you just can't find the last hidden thing to get the achievement and unlock the super cool sword. Do you usually check out the wiki of the game you're playing? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

Prologue 18+ Release.

As we approach the release of our full game, Iragon, we want to share some important updates regarding the Prologue. Iragon: Prologue will be cut off at the sewer levels. This means that the experimental hall and the Monster Girl gallery will no longer be available in this version. Additionally, we will be discontinuing the weekly updates for this build. The full version of Iragon offers a complete and enriched experience, filled with the content and features you've been eagerly anticipating, so be sure to get it upon release! For those of you who have been with us since the beginning, your feedback and support have been invaluable in shaping Iragon. We're incredibly excited for you to see everything we've been working on. Thank you for your continued support. Best regards, Repulse

What's a hidden gem game you've played?

What's a small or not well known game that you played at some point and didn't expect much from and by the end of it you were left very pleasantly surprised? A hidden gem that not many people know about. For me, that would be Oxenfree, A Short Hike and Lunacid. All very interesting games in their own ways that not many people talk about. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

What's the best video game item?

Baldur's gate got me thinking about cool magic items in D&D and that got me thinking about cool items in video games. Like the portal gun from portal, the Dagger of Time from Prince of Persia or the Pip-Boy from Fallout. What's a cool item from a video game that you'd love to have? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

What's the best high fantasy setting?

It's no surprise that a lot of us are fans of high fantasy settings in games, movies, books and so on. I'm sure that many people who watched the Lord of the Rings or played Witcher 3 for the first time fell in love with the world of those universes and the lore that goes with it. So what would you say is the best fantasy setting of any universe? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

First or third person?

It seems like since the dawn of video games every game where you play a single character falls into one of two categories. Either third person or first person. Each has its advantages and disadvantages for player immersion, ease of use, camera movement and so on. Which do you prefer? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

Balancing We have also started working on balancing Iragon's difficulty. As a result, it's possible that in this and the next few updates, the game may feel either too hard or too easy. Please be patient while we strive to find the right balance, and any feedback is greatly appreciated! Future Scene Improvements As for the future, you can look forward to a reworked Dance scene in the Harem. Better Weapon Prompt Lastly, we changed the weapon pickup prompt. Its text is now in the color of the rarity of the weapon you picked up, so you can tell if it's good at a glance.

Who should win game of the year?

It's almost that time of the year. We're about to send off this year, and with that we'll all get to vote on what we think deserves the title "Game of the year" Is there a game that stands above the rest in your mind? Are you going to vote or just see who takes the title? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

Future Scene Improvements As for the future, you can look forward to a reworked Dance scene in the Harem.

Do you play free games?

Everyone loves getting things for free. And for some of us the idea of getting games for free is super exciting. That's why there's websites, subreddits and discord bots dedicated to telling you every time there's a game for free on a bunch of platforms. But do you find the time to play all these free games or do you get them and feel nice sitting on your dragon's hoard of free unplayed games? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

What is your preferred way to play games - keyboard and mouse, or controller?

Gaming offers a variety of methods to immerse yourself in virtual worlds, and the control style you choose has a significant impact on shaping your experience. For some, the classic precision of a keyboard and mouse combo is the go-to choice, offering accuracy and versatility. On the other hand, some players find comfort, familiarity, and a user-friendly appeal in a controller. So, what do you prefer when it comes to controlling your games - the classic keyboard and mouse combo or the user-friendly controller? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

When do you play the most?

Back in the day finding time to play games was easy. You finish school, blast through your homework and start playing. But adulting tends to get in the way and eat up a lot of time. So when do you find time to play games? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

What's the coolest pet?

Cats and dogs are cool. Rats and lizards are also cool. Hell, for some spiders are cool too. What do you think the coolest pet you can have at home is? Are you on the cats and dogs train or do you like something more exotic? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

Which game is most fun with friends?

Playing games solo is fun, but sometimes you want to have a fun time with friends. What's the game you find you and your friend group playing post often? Is it a party game like Mario Party or Jackbox, or is it something more intense like Hunt Showdown? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

Thank you for your patience and support, we are trying our best to deliver amazing scenes as soon as possible. Main Menu Improvements We’ve also revamped the Main Menu Background. On top of what’s immediately visible, when left idle the scenes will start changing after some time.

What game have you been playing for the longest?

Some games enter into your life early on and stick with you for as long as you can remember. For some people, these are games that they revisit every year or so, and for others they're games that are always installed and are played consistently. So what game have you been playing for the longest? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

Two WIP Scenes We are also working on the final two boss scenes while polishing old scenes.

Do you watch any streamers?

When video games became mainstream a lot of content for gamers started popping up. With that we got a lot of people who stream video games daily. Some are fun to watch because they're good and others because they're entertaining. There are even things like Twitch drops that promote watching gaming streams, so you can get items in games. Do you watch gaming streams? Do you have any favorite streamers? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

What anime are you watching?

With cool new shows coming out all the time, are you watching anything new? Or maybe you're rewatching an old classic. Maybe like me you're still trying to catch up with cool shows that you missed while they were coming out. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

Pair a song with a game!

Alright, here's the assignment. Pick a pairing of a song and a game that would go well together. Like a song that would enhance the experience of a game if it were playing in the background. Like Shadow of the Colossus and Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin, Dark Souls and Hurt by Nine Inch Nails or House Flipper and Our House by Madness. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

What's the best twist in any video game?

Classes in video games usually dictate your playstyle. Rogues are sneaky, Barbarians are strong, Druids are adaptable, Mages are wise and so on. Even in games where you don't pick a class, sometimes the weapon you use can dictate your playstyle in the same way as a class. So what's your favorite class in games? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

In anime games do you expect to see very subtle facial animations or do you expect them to be move over the top line in anime shows? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png

Not only that, but the Post Climb boss cutscenes are all now fully voiced.

Does clipping in animations bother you?

Pretty often in games there'll be a dude in big armor doing a backflip or something and you can clearly see parts of his armor clipping into each other. Or when a tavern maiden sits down and parts of her dress clip slightly into the chair. Does that ruin the experience in any way for you? Does it break your immersion, or is it something that you've learned to not notice or not care about? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40808121/d681a5c1b141af2449e99a3156a673e75c00fa02.png
