Mirror*: https://www.mediafire.com/?chl72943wbr242a
RTP: https://mega.nz/#!H9tFEBoI!q_o66so-JOKWh5xZX86lTePV-N-RtzD3CVSTdQFnOnw

*Requires RPG Maker VX Ace RTP to be installed. If you don't know what that means, use the RTP link.

Version 0.20.0
 - New section of the game.
 - One new sex scene.
 - Aka's Deathblow skill is fixed.
 - I commissioned a bust image for Aka's new version, now found in the harem menu.
 - In addition to the above fix, there are now more entries in the harem menu.
Version 0.20.1
 - Parallax map reworked because some players were experiencing lag.
 - Miscellaneous bugs and typos.
Version 0.20.2
 - Mostly very minor things, but changed Queen Dheria's sprite.

Special thanks to Decanter for helping with code on multiple things, they wouldn't have gotten done without him (also for the new Dheria sprite).

Harem Additions: I have fleshed out the harem menu, since the number of slots remaining has been a common source of confusion. While this is not the 100% final list, this covers all the important characters through the end of the game. Do not take the percentage completion to be the percentage of the game, however: a large number of the unknown entries on the list are characters you already know well.

I would like to remind everyone that I am still dealing with personal issues as I mentioned here. I wrapped up everything I was working on to put out a short update, which I hope will be taken as a sign of my commitment, but I will need to take some personal time before the next release.

That's all I have to say for now. Expect some of the other minor releases I referenced over the coming while, then eventually a large update that finishes this arc of the plot.

Release Plans

Many of you know this, but I wanted to provide an official update for those who don't: I am currently recovering from the death of a close family member. It was a sudden accident that happened several weeks ago as of this post, and as you would expect, it has impacted my ability to work.

Having said that, I'm making this post because I have kept working when I am able, and I can now announce a general time for my next release: next weekend, if all goes well. Once version 0.20.x is released, I will take a short amount of time away from the game completely, then I will work on making 0.21.0 the best update I can (it will be a big one, completely resolving the current subplots).

I have a few things to keep you occupied during the delay:

1) I have made a recent Patreon post public, so check it out for answers to top patron questions, including a sneak preview of some of the new art for Ouroboros 2.0:

2) I recently finished my longest-running piece of erotica, a ridiculous superhero story entitled Superman Fucks Gotham, after posting monthly updates for nearly two years. You can read it at Literotica or Archive of Your Own.

3) The final DLC update to Noxian Nights will be coming out in time. If you haven't played it, the main story is already complete, so now's a good time to give it a try. Those of you who wanted more tentacle sex in TLS will be happy with the upcoming update.

4) I'm not quite finished with it yet, but after I've secured TLS and NN releases, I'll put putting out one last bugfix for Ouroboros (this link will be updated later). No new content, but the memory leak is fixed, so if you couldn't or haven't played before, now might be a good time to check it out. I'm quite pleased with how it turned out, for a short game.

Beyond the general dates listed here, I can't make any promises about future progress. I want to work, I generally find it healing, but I have some serious things to work through.

I will work my hardest to make sure that this next pair of updates is up to the usual standard. After that I will take some time alone, but then I will be back to produce more content. This is what I want to spend my life doing, after all, I just won't be able to continue at 100% right away.
