About the Game

Cervius, an incubus and Demon Lord, strives to become a Dreadlord, which is the highest rank of rank a demon can attain. For this purpose, he has taken over an abandoned castle and made it his base of power. From there, he will conquer and expand his domain, while travelling to foreign worlds to gather servants that will fight for him.

Features

  2. Is Zel having all animations? Because i can't get animation between "milking" and "Take over". And I think, that with further development this game should look great.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Zel's animations should be:
      - Brand
      - Milking
      - Take Over

      and his finishers should be:
      - Cumflation
      - Milking

    2. We're also starting to remake the combat and story to make it better this month, so hopefully this'll make the game even more enjoyable :P

  5. The game is best but I have some questions

    1) It is Soren Finisher only mindcontrol
    2) It is Only Fenrir, Soren, Zel in this game prototype?
    3) It is Cervius power only 500 or it can increase how tell me.
    4) I don't see any milking room
    5) In construction I really confused for example Add Furniture in fenrir room how? And in the bed chamber. Build a Private Bathroom But when I go to the room bed I already saw a bathroom. Please Explain to me about this.

  6. The game has a lot of potential, the battle system seems a bit odd for me (the only thing i dont like at all) but you are gonna change it so...
    The controls are easy to understand, i like the summoning heroes portal but i think it could be better, maybe use it for summoning toys or other artifacts not only materials (i really dont know if you have already planned something more for the portal)
    Really good job Red

    1. Can you check which version of OpenGL your GPU can handle?
      https://support.pix4d.com/hc/en-us/articles/203876689-How-to-verify-the-supported-OpenGL-versions-of-the-graphics-card

      If it's not at least version 3, it won't run.

      Delete
    2. Mmmh, then it might be an engine-related bug. We're aware of those and will be working on fixing them though it will require time and an extensive amount of work because we're probably going to change parts of the code from one language to another.

      Delete
    3. Threeclaws did suggest some stuff to check out to make sure your game is able to run though, it might help you:

      - Check that they have the libgdcervius.dll in the same folder as the cervius_game.exe. If it's missing then the game will quit right after the game has started.
      - Try whitelisting the game for the antivirus software, or disabling the antivirus software.
      - Try executing the game as administrator.

      Delete
    4. If none of those work, it would help us if you could send the logs found here:
      \AppData\Roaming\Godot\app_userdata\Dreadlord Ascension\logs

    3. Right now, there isn't that much to do yet beyond that as it's the current ending point. (The next missions are only in the patreon update but will come later)

  31. My Name Is DoomguyJune 19, 2022 at 9:06 AM

    Question, is the incubus that you made for mugen (called DDC) the same protagonist of this game ? or was the previous chae like a propotype of cervious ? i ask this because i'am making a video where i talk about Adult Mugen content and i plan to talk about the DDC character and maybe give a little shoutout to this one game you're making,its looks kind of interesting nwn (the first part reached recently more than 40 k views,so maybe this could be great free publicity for you) another thing, i have been quiet a fan of your projects for some time, i even played your other game "palestra" when it was still under the name of harem builder.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Thank you! and yes, DDC from mugen is Cervius (I updated his appearance for Dreadlord Ascension because the design was outdated, but DDC stands for Demon Dreadlord Cervius :P) and yes, you can talk about DDC or Cervius if you want ;)

      Delete
  32. Are there some Ero scenes from Cervius' refresh ability that can't be viewed yet? Maybe I am just getting unlucky with the scenes that play, but it feels like that's the case. (Also wanted to say I appreciate all the work you put into these, there's a lot of good scenes in this update.)

    1. Right after I asked this I got the ones I was missing so that answers my question.

    1. I also ran into this problem, but I found a fix or a workaround through testing and comparing complete saves.
      Open the folder with the game in it. Then go into the "saves" folder and copy your most recent save and give it another number. Open it as a text document, press strg + f and search for "79":true . Paste "78":true, in front of the other number and then close the text document and save it. Start the game, select the new save and then it should work perfectly fine, at least it worked for me.

  81. Hi, is Haiden in public version already, or is it patreon only? Because it seems that I have done anything I could, but I still can't get anything about him

    1. Haiden is only in the patreon version and new content will be exclusive to the patreon version going forward.

  82. I know it may be stupid to ask that since it's no longer precised on the game's page, but is it finally possible to transfer save data from one version to another after an update? I've been holding off from playing the game because of that despite the fact I want to play it so badly, looks just as good as Palestra!
    Also I'm not sure if I got it well when in a post some weeks ago you mentionned how you'll handle the development from now on, but are the games going to be free when they'll be fully done?
    Keep up the good work, love your games!

    1. To answer your first question, yes, saves can now be transferred from version to version for DA.

      As for the second question, I plan to make Palestra fully available for free eventually, but DA will remain patreon locked. (or paid if I put it on another platform later once it's finished in years from now lol)

    2. Thank you, I just have one last question now that you told me that DA won't be free. I think I saw in another of your replies here that you're french, or at least from Europe. I'm personally french so I just wanted to know if it'll be possible to pay in €? Because I know some games are only available in $ and I never know if it is even possible to pay for these if you're in europe.
      Thanks again in advance for your answer

  85. Can the save file from 0.9.x be moved to 0.10.x or is it better to start a new game?
