The Build#2 Beta has entered public release!

Have fun, and consider sending us feedback/suggestions! :)

Hi, we're Crimson Delight Games, and we're making Tales of Legendary Lust: Aphrodisia - a 2D RPG!

You can follow the development of our game on YouTube and Twitter, and of course, Patreon.

Here's a video to give you an idea what we're doing...


ToLLA is a party-based role-playing game, heavily influenced by classics like Neverwinter Nights, Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, Dragon Age: Origins, Arcanum, Fable, Planescape: Torment, and a bunch of other titles we played in our teens. It's being developed by our small but driven 3-person team (artist, writer, scripter); we all work 9-5 jobs, but we're IRL friends and hang out together, which drastically speeds up our production time! We've always wanted to make our own (lewd) RPG, and ToLLA is just that kind of game!

We wanted to open a thread to show some of the stuff we've been working on for the past 7 months...

All art being developed for the game is done by our own artist, and yes that includes the sex scenes!

We've opted for a 2D approach, because we believe it's a timeless aesthetic that remains visually pleasing even years after a game's release. Forget store-bought assets and mismatched art styles: everything in ToLLA is hand-crafted and made with detail in mind, from NPCs to locations to equipment to miscellanea... and of course, the plethora of lewd encounters. This adds a tremendous amount of work, but we believe the end result justifies the extra effort, especially when visuals are concerned.

You won't find reused mannequins and refurbished backgrounds in our game; all content is tailor-made, whether it's a sex scene or a storybook event!


~ The Story & Setting ~

t5BwF0d.png

You play as Captain Hale, a career soldier and infamous ladies' man, as he makes his way through a fantasy world full of horny babes (noblewomen, female soldiers, peasant girls, slutty bandits, etc.) and even hornier monsters! Take up the sword against a mysterious Red Queen and her legion of infernal followers and savage monsters, as you struggle to balance your duty against the overwhelming tide of debauchery blanketing the country in the wake of her invasion... A powerful magic spell holds your nation captive, inflaming the population's base urges and desires. Will you resist... or give in to your lust? Remain chaste, or drown in crimson tides of promiscuity?

Talk of foreign subversion -- and all-out war -- percolates thickly among the hedonistic nobility. To make matters worse, the mountain orcs have grown increasingly bold, launching attacks on isolated villages and pillaging trade caravans. Reports of them massing along the border grow more common with each passing day... As the greenskin raids become more frequent -- and evidence of infernal magic slithers in the background -- it's up to you to gather a team of adventurers, and get to the bottom of the conspiracy threatening your people!


~ Content Features ~

FjzdIF7.png

If you've ever played D&D then you know what you're in for: exploration, questing, adventure, item hunting, magic, and of course sex encounters with all manner of human and non-human characters! Solve quests through diplomacy, extortion, bribery, force, by using your rank, or through good old-fashioned seduction! It's up to you, and the game gives you many options for even the smallest of quests. Play the game the way you want to play it; we give you the tools, and let you chart your own path through the game!

kB3tqsR.png
Main Features:
  • sprawling storyline stretching over 5 Chapters, and dozens of locations/biomes
  • a wide array of spells and abilities for every partymember, allowing many diverse and customizable builds
  • companion roster of 8 adventurers, each as kinky and diverse as their many fetishes... seduce them to unlock their sex scenes as they travel and fight alongside you! (but expect them to test you, and have you work to earn their trust)
  • visible armor/outfit destruction to characters during fights, revealing their nude(er) bodies as the battle drags on, and they take more damage!
  • take part in steamy interactions between the Player Character and most NPCs (companions, allies, enemies, questgivers, monsters, etc.)
  • numerous races the Player can meet and seduce! (humans, elves, halflings, dwarves, orcs, goblins, shifters, demons, vampires, gargoyles, centaurs, goos, nagas, giants, dragonkin, monster girls, and many more!)
  • have sex with NPCs for fun and profit, or decline their advances to unlock alternate quest routes and rewards (whatever your preference, it's always your decision; the game will never force anything on you!)
  • over 30 fetishes, ranging from vanilla to outlandish, depending on the class, race, size, gender, alignment, and vocation of the NPC
  • post-battle 'punishment' scenes where the Player chooses how to treat their vanquished enemies, or gets spanked around by victorious ones
  • competently written heroic storyline, with turns, twists, unexpected revelations, and plenty of sexy foes to defeat, capture, and add to your harem!
  • connectivity between areas, linked together by a big World Map full of random encounters and unique events (many of them on the lewder side!)
  • challenging Text Adventures and Perilous Undertakings, navigated by using the Captain's Retinue - elements of the 1st Company under your direct supervision and control, which you must replenish, equip, and feed! (Troops, Materiel, Supplies)
  • the Crimson Delight, a huge brothel full of diverse, sexually adventurous NPCs waiting for the Player to woo and bed them! (or pay the right people to access its elite courtesans)
  • legendary artefacts disassembled into pieces and hidden in the world... or guarded by mighty enemies!
  • game world reactivity towards the Player depending on your party's actions, stats, skills, and reputation


~ Dialogues & Archetypes ~

1e161ZD.png

Playing as a Captain has its perks! You can decide how to approach situations, solve quests, arbitrate between feuding NPCs, and offer your input on matters ranging from trivialities like local flea infestations, to history-changing events like invading armies. The game's content is specifically designed to give you multiple options in tackling the obstacles put in front of you, and your primary vehicle in such cases are the Archetypes - unique 'roles' which let you navigate conversations with specific pros and cons.

Pick from 7 of these unique hero/villain archetypes during dialogues and key events, each unlocking specific role-playing opportunities and outcomes!
  • Crusader - a virtuous, self-impoverished ascetic who refuses material rewards and martyrs himself for others, serving as a tireless exemplar!
  • Soldier - a dutiful, pragmatic patriot, whose experienced demeanor marks him as a leader of men, and a cunning strategist beloved by his followers!
  • Trickster - a charmingly aloof and suave prankster, whose irreverent attitude allows him to effortlessly bamboozle his marks out of their own wealth!
  • Diplomat - a clinically rational and almost apathetic pacifist, who often acts in a concilliatory manner, preferring to observe as a neutral bystander!
  • Lecher - a spiteful, envious, paranoid, and deceitful sex-crazed pervert, whose lecherous advances rest on abusing the power of his rank and station!
  • Madman - a seductively depraved corruptor, whose broken, traumatized mind hides its violent impulses behind a facade of elitism and sophistication!
  • Warlord - an avaricious, ruthless, frighteningly-intelligent authoritarian, who relies on bending the letter of the law to terrorize and enslave his foes!


~ Final Words ~

Thanks for reading, and feel free to comment about anything that's caught your eye, or you'd like to see in a game like ours (can be anything ranging from mechanics to quests to lewds). We'll be updating this thread from time to time as we release new builds and information about ToLLA. The planned release windows are about 7-8 weeks apart, with the first playable version of the game coming very soon (we're still finishing up some of the art assets).

We're getting close to initial release, just have to wrap up a few more things and the first build should be done.

In the meantime, here's a few production sketches our artist did for the game's intro sex scene...

The art and atmosphere look amazing. But I guess it's one more game where we can't really expect any decent gay/bi-sexual content despite all promised "debauchery", "Play the game the way you want to play it", etc...

I'd like some clarification on the fetishes present in this. Aside from a few things I can surmise from the screenshots, that's pretty vague. What kind of content can we expect to see?
It'd also be nice to know what kind of general sexual content will be in the game (m/f, m/m, f/f, futa etc)

Hi art926! We're glad you like the game's visual style, we're really proud of how it came out!

We're definitely going to include bi content, but it'll be mostly female focused (Protagonist + multiple girls in sex scenes). In fact, most of the game's adult content is Captain Hale with various female characters (allies, enemies, companions, questgivers, monster-girls, etc.). Regardless, we'll also be including twinks, traps, crossdressers, and (monster) dickgirls, but our protagonist will almost always be the dominant one in those situations, and the characters he'll bed will also be feminine-looking and female in characterization and mannerisms. Roughly speaking, about 90% of the planned sex scenes are Captain Hale + Female NPC. The other 10% feature the 'exotic' stuff.

We've discussed including a male gay companion the Player could recruit and develop a relationship with (someone interesting and cool like Dorian Pavus from Dragon Age Inquisition), but this would be a sort of one-off thing, because most of the game is being built around hetero content. But if we do include a gay male, there will be sex scenes with him (just like with any other companion). Though again, this would be an exception, not the rule. And also something that's currently a luxury feature, because we have a ton of 'regular' content to work through (mostly companion and area assets).

If it's any consolation, our artist is female and she likes painting Captain Hale's body, so you can expect to see a lot of his muscled features regardless of who the Captain sleeps with! ;)

Hey, savagesix!

Unlike Japanese games, ToLLA is a western RPG and is less fixated on a small number of core kinks that define the entire game. In ToLLA, fetishes are mostly situational, and depend on the race, size, vocation, background, and so on of the NPC you're sleeping with. For example, you can expect 'plain' or 'vanilla' sex from bored housewives, furry/scaly content from anthros like werewolves and dragonkin, magical sex and potions and hijinks from sorceresses and witches, defloration from virgins, milk-play and lactation and boobjobs from wetnurses, pregnant scenes from preggo ladies, smothering/trampling/footplay from giantesses, BDSM and hard femdom and humiliation from drow girls, race-play and breeding from orcesses, and so on... The quests we're developing have you interacting with a diverse roster of characters, as befits a fantasy RPG, and so the sex scenes that spring from those interactions are just as varied. We're building the game as a collection of D&D-esque modules, connected by an overarching story. This means you'll get to explore various locations/villages/towns/biomes, and the lewd content you run into will reflect the characters and situations you meet there.

As far as general sex content, it's mostly Player + Female(s), with some optional feminine dickgirls on the side (usually of the monster or non-human variety).

Hope that answered your question! :cool:

Here's more art from the game's introductory CYOA (55 unique, hand-painted images in total).

We'll release the first build as soon as the last of these is finished, we're just waiting on some of the backgrounds to be done.

This looks interesting, my only concern is that bit about remaining chaste offering different options, will being lewd in a lewd game punish you or something?
Hi Malidica!

It's not so much punishment, as an alternate way of progressing through the game while role-playing an abstemious idealist (for those who prefer that kind of playstyle).

Opting for lewd choices will fill your Promiscuity meter and let you unlock specific quests and gear, while going for non-lewd options builds your Chastity meter and likewise unlocks specific content. Furthermore, some of the recruitable companions will refuse to be involved with a promiscuous or chaste Captain, depending on their personal views and backgrounds. So while there are certain thresholds you'll need to meet by building enough Chastity/Promiscuity, the game doesn't really punish as much as it encourages you to pick a path and stick to it. And even if you don't, much of the 'locked' content is available if you have other ways of accessing it (lots of gold for bribes, high persuasion skill, fame through renown, threaten/blackmail options, and so on). We designed the game's systems to give you meaningful choices that let you play the way you prefer, but that means you can't see and unlock 100% of everything on a single playthrough (else the areas and characters would've been too identical and one-sided). Some side-quests and companions will require specific prerequisites in order to access them, and will encourage a second run through the game.

Even then, the vast majority of the main content (combat, exploration, interactions, quests, etc.) are available to you regardless of how you choose to build and play your Captain!

Well, this looks quite impressive.
Thanks! All art for the game is being done by our own in-house artist. And the first release has a huge branching sex scene in the form of a massive CYOA, so if you like text-heavy erotica like CoC or TiTS you'll probably enjoy it.

Is there a demo?
Yes, you can grab it right now by pledging to our patreon at the lowest tier ($3): https://www.patreon.com/posts/49402830
Or you can wait another week until the initial release goes public.

Bumping with some Easter art!

This pic is a teaser for some of the more exotic races we have planned for the game...

CrimsonDelightGames-907193-ToLLA_Easter_Fun.png


Work on the next build is proceeding really well; we've added a second, part-time artist to our team!

Build#2 will introduce a huge exterior area (Fort Ninevus), with multiple quests, NPCs, lewds, and free-roam.

Bumping with a pair of halfling girls from the next build we're working on...

One's a pale MILF with a human fetish, and the other is a younger tanned cutie.

These are optional sex encounters the Player can choose to access in between questing.

Gotta be careful with perspective in halfling porn scenes because the main appeal of them is their shortstack size. From the angles in these two images they don't look like halflings at all because you can't tell how small they are; they just look like elves.

Yeah it can be an issue from certain angles. These pics were the first ones from their respective sets to be painted, which is why they were posted. The rest of the images have different angles and the size difference is much more clear.

One more pic of the feisty halfling barmaid and our protagonist engaging in some femdom action...

This is from an optional in-game encounter featuring 15 unique hand-painted images.

Some early-ish portrait concepts/sketches from the upcoming build we're working on...

Every NPC in the game gets their own unique hand-painted portrait, usually associated with a quest!

Here's a few pics from the prologue area... This is the first exterior zone after the intro section.
We're still working on the upcoming content release, mostly on the NPC art assets and some lewds.
