What is ut
Can you put the download link directly on the itch site? Instead of going to the mega disk via an extra link, or can you switch to another disk? I may be rude to say this, but I did have trouble downloading.
Help! I accidentally kicked the girl out of the team, and now I can't invite her back. What should I do?
If i'm not mistaken things are currently bugged to where you can't get an other ally for the run if you lose your first ally for whatever reason. All you can do is roll back to a save before you lost the ally.
So generally if you "remove your ally" without it naturally happening, their relationship value hits a very large negative. Technically it's possible to get them back, but it will take a long time.
No, you don't understand! I kicked an ally out of the group, but HE was still part of my group, and I kind of didn't kick him out of the group, but I kicked him out. I don't have him as an ally, but at the same time he was my ally on the map in the dialogues.
What would count as an ally being removed in a natural way then?
Don't feel pressured to get it out before Christmas. It's fine to delay things a little if it means getting in a proper play test run that hits various features so that you can be certain players won't be hitting a mess of bugs.
For all those having trouble with the ??? fight:
In my experience, she tends not to use the Cruel Destiny move (the one responsible for the crash) unless you're smaller than her. So, obviously, going in with even more height will insulate you (somewhat) from that. She also can't crash your game if she never gets a turn--stunning her with Eye Of The Storm (legendary rarity, found in Base Set packs) can keep her locked down long enough for you to chip her away. You have exactly enough MP to cast Eye Of The Storm and Rapid Recovery on the same turn, and you can use the Rapid Recovery to return Eye Of The Storm and a second Rapid Recovery to your hand, letting you loop her forever.
Of course, the seven damage from Eye Of The Storm is never going to get over her regeneration, so you'll need to be able to play other cards. You'll also run out of cards in hand eventually, since Eye Of The Storm requires you to discard a card as well. Enter Boundless Mana. Found in Coven packs, it applies the Mana Confluence buff for three turns, which gives you an extra 2 max MP and causes you to draw a second card at the start of your turn. Fighting her on New Game Plus is also highly recommended, since it gives you access to the incredible card Galatea, Endbringer. The Breast form gives you a permanent +5 Max MP and some other stuff that's nice but not necessary for this fight, and if you play her enough times, you'll get a True Stomp, which should kill her dead in one hit. She's tough to resolve, given the 10 MP cost, but that's why the deck should be full of any and all ways to stack MP growth. And a little RNG to push past a couple of turns, and just hope it doesn't blow up in your face. You saved before you started the fight, right?
The deck I used to beat her:
where is dark contract, unbreakable resolve and how you ether get galatea or endbringer?
"Galatea, Endbringer" is the full name of a single card--you receive it at the start of a new run, after you win and see the credits.
Dark Contract is from the Base Set, at Epic rarity (10DP, max 2 per deck)
Unbreakable Resolve is a common, I think? It's in the Succubus set. It gives Regen 2, Max HP Boost 2, and Max MP Boost 1, so if you can't find it, Mana Geode from the Base Set is also fine--it gives MP Boost but not the other effects. I went with Unbreakable Resolve because I was starting the fight missing a bunch of HP already, and that didn't fly with me.
thx i just started playing and when i saw this i thought bet ima try this i got like a hour or two if i fail several times thx for the info. im using beilia the first from the sucubis deck her damge is at 500
is 1000 damage garentee from a card is enough to fight the boss becuse now beilia the first dose 1050 damage is that enough to beat the first giantess boss?
Not even close. She has something like 60,000 HP and heals 6,000 per turn. If you don't have Galatea, you'll have to go with a different strategy, applying Bleed and Decay to wear her down with %-based damage.
Mainly zombie deck theres one from the succubus deck double attack each 50% chance to bleed
how to fix error? when i fight with "???"
Working on it :) Plan to upload fixes and a new version hopefully before Xmas.
Does Noir have an ending？How can I unlock her ending, she's the killer in the Dark Alley.
Not just yet :(
Wait this game [Demo] got updated on October i didn't even know cool
the best Deck it's one to steal/gain height or HP and light with less cards possible I recommend Belial (Succubus Deck)
¿How can I alliance with anyone? ¿Can you add a option to revive someone? something like give 200 height so to someone or something. btw ¿Is there a Discord SV or something?
there's an easy method to prevent someone from getting KO'd in the first place. the goddess statue in the temple. Might need to talk to the secret telling person in the casino to unlock it however.
I know but I mean something to bring back someone after death
Ok, we need a wiki for this game or at least a card viewer (for those you didn't got 'em)
I'm working on a "living" card compendium which should in theory let me easily update itself by reading the game files when i compile it.
so in theory.... should be golden :D
I mean, I'm right now looking for a card to counter Orphelia's photosynthesis and Titania's Steal, So I wanna know my possible options, more cards to steal height plz
I love this game, by far the best card game i have ever played. a few minor issues, 1, the Summoning cards like the demon deity, and other summon cards simply crash the game when you try to use them. 2, editing the decks to be invalid and not fixing it before you try to leave will cause a popup that can't be closed with the touch controls. 3, the conditional cards with indirect effects like demonic decay, apocalypse and demon castle zekial don't give obvious effects, they do as intended, but no effect occurs on screen to indicate successful use. (edited.)
Heads up if you trying to find the hidden boss her battle is super buggy and you probably never beat it cause of 2 bugs she gives you a card that crashes the game two for some reason succubus amd i think demon bugs her battle if you have a full hand of only succubus cards it read null empty hand i think and game crashes
Hmm. I may need to check these out a bit closer. But i will be releasing an update hopefully soon to address the large majority of these. Since a few are game ending which is no good.
just farm size with Succubus or Galacty cards (Succubus easy version, Galacty harder) my MC got 1K per day xD
the game doesn't let me save
The game does let you save but it's at the end of everyday How to say if you have to fight three people at the end of the day if I'm remembering right
You need to wait until the end of the day and it will prompt you to save. If you haven't unzipped the game files though, it will always block it.
I have modified this in the next version so you just can save whenever.
good to know
i have error "TypeError Cannot read property'_cardHand' of null"
it was card cruel of destiny
in boss fight with ???
How to fix it?
In file this card name is CruelReality
That’s the crash everyone else is talking about. It’s being looked at.
Nicksav
I hope your Thanksgiving was good. Make sure to take breaks especially fixing hot fixes. I know they’re not easy fix but at least you’re taking it slow and steady. I hope but if you’re feeling overwhelmed, it’s OK to take a break if you need to.
How can I get Devorah? I've been on the cultist island so long I think she isn't a drop from there...
Also as a note, apparently dissolving an alliance doesn't remove the alliance interactions. I seemingly can't get a new ally after dissolving an alliance either.
(Short form IF beating the "???" Is do able right now) Any current way to beat the "???" Boss with out crashing? I tried with out the succubus archetype and mainly with max hp decrease and posion fire rotting it works for a bit but them "???" Uses that one card skill and it just crashes the whole game
Sadly not just yet :(
I do have some fixes ready to go. Just making sure they also don't break immediately...
Even if it will be, if I have bad deck, it will be impossible to get into this fight and win it somehow, I will have to start again, right? :/
I bet it would be game over and you have to reset the battle best bet is just % damage like rotting, posion, fire max hp decrease which only lasts a few turns
how to fix?
i have error "TypeError Cannot read property'_cardHand' of null"
how you make a new save
Just start a new game use a different slot.
I really enjoyed this. The tournament format is already cool on its own, adding a deckbuilding manager to this makes the game really engaging. Lots of different girls of all shapes and sizes to choose from and gradually watch your favorites grow (some hot imagery on some of the cards, too). You even included characters from your previous game, which is the kind of thing I always enjoy from creators. I'd go as far as to say this is currently one of the best giantess games available, especially if one doesn't mind AI art.
But seeing as you're still updating this, I thought you would appreciate getting to know about some bugs in the current version (all of this is about the free version available here)
Lastly, this one isn't really a bug but just something to consider. Like I mentioned, this game is generally fun and engaging, but I'd be lying if I said the latter days weren't a chore. After a certain point, I got stuck in a routine where nothing seemed to progress. There was just me, my ally, and seven other girls, of which only three were decently strong, and the other four were constantly on the brink of elimination yet never quite there (see point 7). I appreciate that there are a few side quests to change things up, like Lilith or The First Giantess, but even with them I still largely spent the second half of my playthrough just battling the same girls over and over until Valeria finally was small enough to resign. I feel like there'd be an easy fix for this if you just allowed us to place bigger wagers than normal when fighting Valeria. Celestia and Izel allow for this, so why not her? Instead of chipping away at Valeria with wagers of 70-80 cm per battle (Succubus and Titania cards raise this to around 250, but that's still not much) you could place, say, wagers up to 500 cm, vastly speeding up the process. Just something I thought would really help make the late days less repetitive.
You have a really cool project going here, and I think it could be even better with some polish.
Hmm. When the energy gets reduced (10/10 -> 3/3), it seems that the energy is restored before the max energy is returned (3/3 -> 3/10), this causes energy reduction spells to last an extra turn because it doesn’t fill back up completely.
Also, the succubus cards being locked behind an endgame boss sequence really makes them obsolete.
the succubus cards have been available at the normal card shop for atleast a couple free versions now though? (even if you have to scroll to a second page to see them). Also I haven't had any issues with the lethality of one of the easily usable legends of the succubus theme.
Ah, the next version will take the various decks and hand them over to ‘distributors’, so you have to do quests to buy them, unless that idea gets moved around.
This may sound annoying what im going to ask but will you ever add a option to combine copies of certain cards to increase their effects and abilities slightly and make them more efficient like healing cards to certain archetypes or boosting and support cards? Like if I end up with 10 or 20 copies of one common card and combine it to just boost its effect by a certain amount like double or 1.5
How do I level up? I have to say that I am on easy mode I think, but those battles when I have 130 hp and others have 1,7k are quite hard.
Theres an item you can buy from a person in the arena to increase your max hp by 5 at the end of the day and the succubus deck that can sometimes increase your max hp permanently other then that the restaurant with the one food option that can give you a random hp increase for one battle also for the succubus deck it also have a few hp steal cards or healing and it's boss card "Belial the first who's attack increases by 5 when you play a certain card its attack stays increased until you lose the game or getting on one the endings by the time I got my first ending well the bad ending its attack was over 1k
nice good ending with the Goddess Diana :)
So any update about the hot fixes?
Currently working on some other fixes as well :)
Hopefully not tooooooo long.
That’s good to hear
1 - Buying HP in the casino VIP room doesn't seem to work
2 - Porschia leaves when she has exactly one rumor left, no matter what it is
Porshia said she will go to the restaurant when she saved up enough, so you just need to defeat caelie, then Porshchia will be in her place.
That's the idea. Hopefully it hasn't broken itself :D
how to get porschia into battle?
She does not fight.
In the ending cgs lists I have one still unlock between Phatrelle and Rachel, but I already unlocked all the characters, and I find no one's name fit this position, did I miss something special ?
The gallery needs some fixing. Few missing pictures and some that shouldn't be there.
Thanks for reply. I have one more question, when defeat Izel, she will left a card type "Vorpal", is it the only card whi ch type is "Vorpal"? I can't find any place to get more cards type "Vorpal"
Currently, Arianna sells them if you beat her in her special game 5 times.
I have no idea who she is in the ending cgs between Phatrelle and Rachel.Is it Noir? But I can't figure out how to make Noir win. If not, then who she is, I haven't met before.
is there a way to change decks before fighting the first Giantess end boss?
i was mucking around with a devorah deck (wasnt a very good build) when the fight triggered and the start of the day, i cant beat her now im down 2 playtghroughs worth of cards is there a way to roll it back or change decks?
I'm going to open up saving at any time in future versions (mainly for bug issues) but this way you can save in multiple slots. I may add a menu screen so you can select a deck before the match though :)
I am stuck on the ??? Fight because they have a card that crashes me anytime I fight her is there an update I need to fix it?
Going to release an updated version soon which should correct that issue :D
Sorry for the delay!
Ok, I got to a point where battles are fucking unfair. The rivals have more than 800 hp, and you with work make 10 or maximum 25 (of course if we take out the letter that makes 50) so... What do you recommend?
Arena inside has a sort of black market NPC at night time where you can pay some height for a hp booster I believe it's called. At the end of day every day it will permenantly boost your hp by 5. If that isn't enough for you then there's succubus decks which have buffs that steal hp from the enemy and whatever hp they steal through those buffs is granted to you as permenant max hp allowing you to gain far more max hp than the hp booster could ever hope to give you. Thanks to succubus decks my character's max hp growth has outpaced all the enemies.
You hace a screenshoot? Honestly it would serve me

Can I have a link to your discord?
I read that there is an explanation for the cards and stuff there and I'm trying to understand what ("require 10 "corruption" counters) means for the "purification card and learn "combos" and "secondary card effects", and mp lol.
P.s, just started playing yesterday and ran across a demon lady that kept stealing my height every turn; I won the battle, but she stole 350 height from me, so is there a card that prevents this?
Atleast in the demo version there's no card that prevents height theft. There are however cards that can steal height. Curse of Belial in succubus decks steals 25 height per turn. Succubus decks are also special in that the hp they steal is granted to you as permenant max hp.
Although it takes a lot of height sacrifice to set up quickly with the witch elders doubling spell counters at the cost of height you can sacrifice near 2k height to be able to gain 5k height through coven cards. There's a card that conditionally gives you Bellatrix. Bellatrix has a couple different forms and it's the 2nd form that can perform massive height stealing at the cost of sacrificing all your spell counters.
Is the 2nd form of Bellatrix in the Coven pack?
For some reason I never seen the coven packs drop legends. I've always had to use that card that adds bellatrix to your deck in order to use her. The most recent version nerfed the witch elders anyways so coven is no longer good for swift height stealing.
pls reply
Everytime I hit the up arrow, the game freezes and won't let me do anything. Is there a way to continue playing after I accidentally hit up, or do I have to close and reopen the game?
Only in combat
Generally, in combat, i would advise using the mouse. The keyboard controls need some fixing up
ReplyEditDelete
And what do you get from equiping the deck boxes you get from the bazarr?
they give a passive effect for the battle.
how/where do i get Vorpal cards from?
Arianna in the casino sells them once you beat her in her own game a few times.
