Loving the game so far, can't wait for more content. The art style is immediately recognizable and VERY pleasant to the eyes. Excited to see what other mechanics you might add. Perhaps a perk system, where you get perk points by leveling up gates. Expanded cooking/potion crafting with craftable appearance change potion? Also, would you consider it, and if so, how much would it cost to get ones OC added to the game as an NPC? For example, a merchant.
Edit: Forgot to add a suggestion I really hope you implement. Always have one gate the current max level.
Could use a way to modify or change your character in game or in main menu. Also, there is no way to delete saves other than going through to the local low files and manually deleting them.
So far pretty decent game.
Maybe a few more objectives and some more lore or things to collect or do.
Also, the NSFW bits for female anatomy would be nice.
Maybe a few more character species too like bat wings or hooves for deer or horses.
Another good Idea would probably be more interactions like taking control with the mouse during interactions or something or even a few mini game style things like timing a key press or moving the mouse in a certain way but also give the option to be hands free for obvious reasons... ahmmm.
Enjoying this so far! Just got a couple things to say:
First, I managed to softlock the game by accidentally hitting the emote button while in a dialog.
Second, I've been seeing NPCs out in the wild just break entirely and stop responding to emotes.
Third, I've had a number of NPCs either get hostile after emoting at them and in one case right after blowing me (with a "get fucked!" dialog bubble). Is... that something that can happen? Feels like a bug.
I like it so far! Will there be a feline race? I'd also love to say that I appreciate the auto run so much from an accessibility standpoint since I have a disability that affects my hands at times that makes holding down shift to run difficult sometimes. I love when games do this!
Something someone else commented would be great for accessibility too and I can't believe I didn't even think to suggest it since it's easier for me most of the time but, controller support in the future. lol. Game is great! I'm looking forward to more, uh, positions and possibly a feline race? XD Keep up the great work!
Running into an issue. Booted the game played for a while and closed it via the save n quit button. But upon trying to reopen the game the application has removed itself and trying to add it back into file is proving to be impossible saying I do not have permissions even with administrative controls.
Fun little adult game, kinda silly but okay. 1. Can't figure out how to dye clothing (Might be a skill issue on my end) 2. Tail patterns please 3. The jump animation feels a little stiff (or a little higher) 4. Latex clothing or something <w<
Dying clothing is just barely implemented, but works! Get some dye from a merchant box (there is one in town), and put it and the clothing item into a dying station (can be found in structures in the wild rarely)
So far the animation is really good looking for early development, and the models look good too. Visually, this has a pretty appealing style, I dig it. Everything is a little rough as expected, but surprisingly works with few hiccups to be had. Combat is simple but effective, and I'm glad the hits connected every time. The dialogue is decent and believable, and in my brief playthrough no one's AI seemed to break or anything like that. Would love to see more genital options (especially if not using a penis, having nothing there is a bit unfortunate), and of course clothing options, as well as positions and acts. Pretty solid so far, looking forward to more development. [Oh! And perhaps controller support if possible. I feel like this game would do well with it.]
You can click on the dialogue to advance it. If that doesn't work, you should share your player log! (You can find it here: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\LocalLow\RalivDev\Archipelagates\Player.log)
This may be difficult to try but for a couple thoughts and ideas that could be interesting to think of:
-When multiple npc characters are around each other in the wilds adds the chance for a three way or specialty more? -if the thought of adding multiplayer comes to mind if possible have character interactions with each other and npc's? -bigger burly characters if not somewhat feral (in horniness) on the hunt capable of tackling you for some fun? -Boots with boost of jump mobility or shirt with little wings giving a lite double jump? -Little water sources in areas to maybe be able to put yourself out from fire spells? -Obviously more species types to customize with? (mouse, equines, raptor, snake, sergal, avian, bovines, hyena as just a couple options etc) -Maybe the option to seduce npc's from the wild enough that you can have them follow you home to keep at your place if you like how they look and all and want to keep them around more? Obviously character living space limit to maybe 2 or 3 depending on your generosity ;3. -Maybe the option to have the ability to remove getting your butt beaten up by anyone while you are "having fun" with a character in the wilds?
But as i may think of many random thoughts and ideas that i would love to help and share with you i personally love everything that you have done up to the current point so far where i already spent over an hour or 2 in character customization alone because of the detail choices being so amazing and being able to add on top of what's there to mix and match. Gameplay is very nice and smooth to boot. Though may hope for controller option in future maybe? the town npc's have the perfect emotions for their emotions and attitude etc. kind of guessed the town whore before speaking to them lmao. other than that i really look forward to what you make of your beautiful work in the future and can't wait. <3
i seen on steam wishlist for a moment before it was removed and was very interested. been watching closely and got it so far its okay some things i would like to see would be like the canine dick to be knotted and less human mayhap also a dragon like one (a tail of tales Feretta ;3) and for them to also go into the sheath fully and id love a option to masturbate to progressively get more erect and go soft over time :D
Loving it so far, very early access so understandably sparse on content.
Some random ideas I'm going to throw out there, feel free to ignore.
Would love to see some some more non-humanoid enemies like slimes or maybe ghosts to possess the PC's body to make them masturbate. Heck, even a doppelganger NPC that copies your custom character could be neat!
Wow, an adult game with actual gameplay behind it, good job!
Nah but jokes aside here are a few thoughts about the game:
1. Core gameplay is engaging and it only needs addition to variety and actual content.
2. For anyone paying for the game, don't expect to get a full game, this is more like a proof of concept and therefor should be more seen as dev support.
3. Even tho it's a pretty minor thing, having an option to add "surgery scars" (as in breast removal scars) seems a bit grim and out of place for the game to me.
4. Overall I can see how this can become something pretty special so keep up the work!
To point 3, It's a point of joy and pride for some of the folks who have 'em; getting that done is -kind- of a project, and trans representation of whatever stripe is a good thing. <3
so far, its aight ^^, i wonder what they're gonna add in the future? maybe a knotted dick? balls saggyness slider? larger partners? larger inventory? storage system? non-con. defeat sex? beasts and animals? (nsfw or not idk) archery? theme song of sorts?
Also, i still think the girth slider should go way lower.
anyway, i'm just throwing ideas randomly, i'm excited to see more!
really sucks that it didnt release on steam as thats where all my spending cash is, but i understand that there was nothing you could do. now i guess ill have to wait until i have a way to purchase the game here instead
English:It is very easy to progress in my first hour, I got more than 999 coins and a chest with 29 of armor. Aside from that, I recommend it, it's a great game and the part about seducing the NPCs ufff
español:Es muy fácil progresar en mi primera hora, conseguí más de 999 monedas y una pechera con 29 de armadura. Aparte de eso lo recomiendo, es un juegazo y la parte de seducir a los NPC ufff
I almost lost this game forever if it werent for a website that shows wishlisted games that got removed on steam! never knew that games could just silently disappear without a trace from the wishlist. Sucks that it wont release there anymore when other NSFW games I follow will.
Would like an explanation for people who dont use twitter but I digress. I'll support this project anyway and hope to see it return to steam someday if possible!
same, i almost lost it to. my only reason i was able to find this again is thanks to opera GX (march 8): ,my god i was this close to save as whitelisted, but as usual Steam removed from its libary while games like Kobold Kare (sorry if i compere the two) is exist on the platform xd
Raliv, my lad, I finally found you again. Seen your game on steam, but figured something happened, probably steam related, and was right. Man, I'm starting to really hate steam. Looking forward to release.
Never bought a game on itch before, but wanted to buy this on steam. Since that's not happening, I wanted to buy it here. Does itch purchase mean I get all future updates without paying, or do I need to pay again for each update/once it leaves Early Access?
You can get access to the current test build and eventually this release for $10 on the dev's Patreon, but I'm pretty sure once the subscription ends you'll lose access to future updates.
Unfortunately not, but the game is still early access! I will do my best to add more media to give you a better idea of what the game contains as the game moves toward completion
what happened to the steam version of this game I wish listed it but then slightly before release it was gone do you plan to make it go on steam again in the future or is it just on here now

quick question- but what if the characters in the game are female,human and naked or at least another game around it ?
Loving the game so far, can't wait for more content. The art style is immediately recognizable and VERY pleasant to the eyes. Excited to see what other mechanics you might add.

there will be bunnys?
Could use a way to modify or change your character in game or in main menu. Also, there is no way to delete saves other than going through to the local low files and manually deleting them.

Glad to hear it! I will try to keep this in mind in the future too.

Will this game release on steam? It's the only way many people can buy games atm
I am unable to release this game on steam. I apologize for the inconvenience this no doubt causes.
Running into an issue. Booted the game played for a while and closed it via the save n quit button. But upon trying to reopen the game the application has removed itself and trying to add it back into file is proving to be impossible saying I do not have permissions even with administrative controls.
This sounds like an aggressive anti virus maybe? I can't imagine what else would remove the game
Fun little adult game, kinda silly but okay.

Yes! Controller support would be so good!
I can't get the dialogue to advance when I talk to the girl at the rock formation. How do I advance the dialogue?
I've even shut the game down and restarted it three times to see if that was an issue and the dialogue still won't advance.
You can click on the dialogue to advance it. If that doesn't work, you should share your player log! (You can find it here: C:\Users\<username>\AppData\LocalLow\RalivDev\Archipelagates\Player.log)
I'll investigate this.. it might be a bug that needs squashing. Thanks for letting me know.
hey what about a discord for the game?

Is it possible to import custom models as characters to play and interact with?
If not possible, adding that would be cool as hell

Very good so far!
For early access and a concept it's very well done!
However, there's a long way to go before it warrants a $15.
I suggest a LOT more character customisation.
Body Parts, Species, etc etc.
Thank you!
Now that most of the technical systems are in a good place, I am excited to focus on content like you describe.
could i possibly request the possibility of having prostetic arms and legs, or metal arms and legs?~
I hope your launch is going well. This is the most gameplay oriented sexy game i've seen.
I'm liking the game so far! Please add rabbits as one of the playable species.
game is pretty good but its insanely quiet its a bit eerie you could also maybe add more vareity to the enemies maybe bosses too
i need to know about save file location where can I find it?
really sucks that it didnt release on steam as thats where all my spending cash is, but i understand that there was nothing you could do. now i guess ill have to wait until i have a way to purchase the game here instead

dialogue breaks when talking to the character at the town portal dias. softlocks the game.
This can happen rarely, if it does, restarting the game will fix it. You won't lose anything.
I restarted and it just happened again :V twice.
I hit shale and that gave him field npc stuff like me being able to seduce and fuck hi, is that intentional?
Ha! Not exactly intentional. He will likely get upgraded AI in the future that will know not to fall for that trick.
Are you planning on making this available on Steam again once the issues that got it removed are fixed?
Debating on buying the game now, or continue waiting for the Steam release
Unfortunately I do not have that option. This game will not be available on Steam.
did you get delisted because there's defeated animations? idk if there are i dont know what steam doesn't allow either
i saw this on twitter first, than went to steam, than saw it was removed. sad to see it but thankful itch is around to save the day
I almost lost this game forever if it werent for a website that shows wishlisted games that got removed on steam! never knew that games could just silently disappear without a trace from the wishlist. Sucks that it wont release there anymore when other NSFW games I follow will.
Would like an explanation for people who dont use twitter but I digress. I'll support this project anyway and hope to see it return to steam someday if possible!
I'm sorry for the inconvenience, and I'm glad you found it here. Please know I am doing the best I can.
same, i almost lost it to.
my only reason i was able to find this again is thanks to opera GX (march 8):
,my god i was this close to save as whitelisted, but as usual Steam removed from its libary while games like Kobold Kare (sorry if i compere the two) is exist on the platform xd
Raliv, my lad, I finally found you again. Seen your game on steam, but figured something happened, probably steam related, and was right. Man, I'm starting to really hate steam. Looking forward to release.
It seems that we can purchase the game in 4 days , not sure if we can play it now by paying the patreon tho.
Never bought a game on itch before, but wanted to buy this on steam. Since that's not happening, I wanted to buy it here. Does itch purchase mean I get all future updates without paying, or do I need to pay again for each update/once it leaves Early Access?
future versions will be available in the ''my library'' tab on your profile specifically in the section ''games you own''
of course if content is added as a dlc of sorts, that's another story.
No dlc for this game, the plan is to finish the game as free updates to the early access game.
oh! neat!
do you have some kind of roadmap somewhere btw?
i'll assume you'll post about future updates on twitter but it never hurts to ask!
Not yet, but that's a great idea!
you can make great road maps with this:
https://trello.com
gota wait what's your plan with this game :D
Will women with dicks be an option?
Yes. I made character creation as open as I could.
Hello! I would like to buy and play this game now! How can I get a early access to the game?
You can get access to the current test build and eventually this release for $10 on the dev's Patreon, but I'm pretty sure once the subscription ends you'll lose access to future updates.
So in order to play the resent state of the game, I have to pay Dev´s Patreon?
is sad is remove of steam i wanna play it so much but i happy is add here i could buy or get free get free and try it, the game is look fun.
Note that itch.io is one of very few fully DRM-free platforms so if you buy game here - you buy it. Not rent it.
this i know
Will Archepela be on steam?
No. It is only available through Itch and Patreon.
Is a demo possible? I would rather like seeing like four types of scenes and how it plays a bit before paying as much.
Unfortunately not, but the game is still early access! I will do my best to add more media to give you a better idea of what the game contains as the game moves toward completion
what happened to the steam version of this game I wish listed it but then slightly before release it was gone do you plan to make it go on steam again in the future or is it just on here now
If it's without dlc or the dlc get a price then it's okay, otherwise one or two countries won't be able to get it there.
I made a detailed announcement on twitter, but the short version is that it was removed permanently. I apologize for the inconvenience.
