You guys would not believe how much I had to go through with Steam to finally get the approval. -_- I could complain, but let's focus on the positive: the game is coming out soon!
Here's the link to the Steam page, do check it out and add it to your wishlist if you want to notified as soon as the game goes live:
http://store.steampowered.com/app/793450/Desecration_of_Wings
Due to the problems with Steam, some ongoing Patreon issues, and some other factors, these are very rough days for me. But I'm still working on TLS and trying to bring everybody content!
Finishing up projects like this helps stabilize me as a creator - thanks to everyone for supporting me! ^-^
already been on my wishlist for a while now, hoping to buy it as soon as it comes out :P
ReplyDeleteThanks! That helps the game get some traction on the storefront - and I hope you enjoy playing it!
DeleteCongratulations on getting it approved and thank you for all your hard work.

ReplyDeleteNice! i look forward to buying it, love your games.
ReplyDeleteSome questions:
- Will there be free h-patch?
- Unrelated but, any chance of putting Ouroboros on Steam too?
Another unrelated note: played Crimson Gray recently. Loved it. I hope you plan on doing more vns in the future. Will leave a review on Steam when i have some time.
Thanks, and I'm glad you enjoyed Crimson Gray! I do plan to do more VNs eventually - a review would be very helpful when you have some time. ^-^ Now, answers to your questions:
Delete1) Definitely. You'll find it and more info here:
https://the-last-sovereign.blogspot.com/p/desecration-of-wings.html
2) Many people have asked, so I finally started the process:
http://store.steampowered.com/app/822830/Ouroboros/
I don't know when I'll actually get Ouroboros up, as I need to focus on TLS and some other stuff. But yes, I do hope to put it on Steam in time!
Thank you very much for that, just added Ouroboros to my wishlist.
DeleteAlso noted i forgot to mention TLS, burned some hours on it. It's quite an awesome job you did with its world, lore and characters, Simon is a most welcome male lead in the sea of h-rpg bland protagonists. And despite still having some problems with the way h-scenes suddenly appear, i look forward to your completed game.
I would support you on patreon, but unfortunately, the salary man life is kinda tight in my country. But i assure i will buy the game whenever you put on sale.
Thanks for the response and great games, and best luck with your projects Sierra!
Thanks! I did indeed write Simon to be a different sort of protagonist, so I'm glad he has been appreciated. Thanks for all your support!
DeleteWill TLS be on Steam ever?Like a complete edition?
ReplyDeleteI've always felt that maintaining a Steam version during development would be too time-consuming, but a complete version? Possibly. It would be rather tedious to censor, but I'd consider it.
DeleteWould you really need to censor it, though? Sure, there might be a few sprites that need covering up, but the sex scenes should be able to pass unscathed, right?
DeleteGlad to see this game is coming out. Most definitely will be a day-one buy for me, as I love reading your stories and playing your smut. Might even write some fanfics about your stuff sometime because of how much they intrigue me.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Hopefully it will get some traction on Steam.
DeleteGlad you like my work! Link anything you write. ^-^
Gotta say that managing this is damn impressive. This is a definite step towards a dev studio :). Personally I am not at all a fan of Steam, but I'll have a look at this title, if TLS is of any measure it should be great.
ReplyDeleteHave you considered GOG as a distributor? From what I understand, it might be much easier to publish there and another distribution source wouldnt hurt, right?
Thanks! I do indeed want to reach studio level, so I'm laying the foundations carefully. ^-^
DeleteWhile I intend to prioritize the Steam release, the game will also be made available on other platforms if you don't want to use it. Links will be here on the blog!
I'd love to distribute my work via GOG, but unfortunately they won't even consider this type of game.
You know, I always found it rather funny that public opinion, as far as gaming is concerned, is perfectly fine with bombing, stabbing, shooting and doing just about everything else possible to each other that will cause death and suffering (sometimes in wholesale numbers), but as soon as someone tries to tackle sexuality, its considered ether extremely juvenile, perverted in some way, or both. Go figure... Gaming world badly NEEDS titles like TLS. Oh well, maybe your next title will be less risque in the eyes of the publishers, you definitely deserve to have more audience for your work.
DeleteThere are still a variety of ideas I have exploring sexuality, and since that's what I've done so far and what people expect, I plan to continue exploring them for a while. But you're not the only person to reflect in a similar way. As I continue to finish projects, I hope to explore greater variety.
DeleteAnyway, thanks for the support and vote of confidence. ^-^
Personally, I think it's that while you can righteously kill a bad dude, there's no such thing aa a 'good guy rape'. When you slay an evil bastard, at best you're putting a beast out of its (and everyone else's) misery, while rape of any sort is a sadistic exercise in power- if it wasn't, it wouldn't be rape, after all.
DeleteWhich is why games like TLS are so important- for better or worse, our culture demands that sex needs to be treated with tact and maturity, which TLS provides in spades.
Still a bit squicked by Robin/Simon stuff tho, but that's just me :P
Hello. I was wondering if you could add Cloud Saving support on Steam also.
ReplyDeleteBtw I'm also administrator on a Steam Group, Nukige http://steamcommunity.com/groups/Nukige
DeleteI made a news about your game and sent you a friendship request.
Hello! I only use that Steam account to publish games, but many thanks for listing my game in your group. Hopefully people there will be interested. ^-^
DeleteAs for cloud saving, that's not something I have any experience with. I will try to figure out the Steamworks end so that we offer the feature if at all possible!
Well, I'm not a big talker I wasn't inviting you for that, also other ULMF H game devs joined us.
ReplyDeleteOkay, joined up!
DeleteGreat. Thanks a lot.
DeleteIf you wanna hang out on our discord channel, you're welcome too.
Purchased when I got the wishlist notification! I don't know when I'll actually get around to playing it, since I'm behind on a bunch of other games (what? no, I definitely haven't spent over 100 hours on TLS. why would you think that). Feels good to support creators making such good content either way. If I had more stable income, your patreon would be top of the list.
ReplyDeleteAnyhow, wishing you luck in current and future endeavors! Take all the time you need with TLS, we'll be here... and by "be here" I mean desperately eating up every drop of new content.
P.S. Obligatory request for more anal
Thanks much for your support!
