itch.io

First of all, you need to do this from a PC, and link your phone to it... I've no clue how to do this strictly from your phone, or even if it can be done. Unzip the archive to get three files... the .apk, the .rpa archive, and the "how to install" .txt file. link your phone to a computer, and manually load the APK into your download file. STAY CONNECTED. open your phone's download file and load up/install the apk... allow it storage, and immediately close it out. Back on your computer, back out to the file list and go to "documents". there should be a new file that says Ren'py saves (or similar) open that. You'll see "Lucky Paradox" folder. Open that, and you'll see some loose files and a "game" folder. open that. it should be empty. copy/paste the .rpa archive into that. When the whole thing is done (may take a minute as the .rpa archive is a large file) close it all out, safely un-link your phone, and go back to the Lucky Paradox icon that should be in your other app icons now. you should get the opening pic... give it a sec to load, and you should see the language selection screen (flags)... click on the English (US/UK) flag, and BAM... Disco.

This is all explained in the "how to install" file.

Did the 23 version get merged with the epilogue, and just missed the memo...?

Honestly, for anyone wanting some input on what goes into the game, your best bet for that would be to join the Subscribestar page (linked above). Grab a subscription tier that has voting power to cast your vote for what you'd like to see in future content, as Arc (The Arcadean) does frequent polls on content for input from his supporters! Of course, this is no guarantee you'll see it put in, but it will definitely improve your chances... hope to see you there!

Honestly, if you want some input on what goes into the game, your best bet for that would be to join the subscribestar page. Grab a sub tier that has voting power to cast your vote for what you'd like to see in future content, as Arc (The Arcadean) does frequent polls on content for input from his supporters! Of course, this is no guarantee you'll see it put in, but it will definitely improve your chances... hope to see you there!

To anyone looking to find out what happened: join the Discord link above, or check out the SubscribeStar... If you were already subbed on Patreon, you'll get a better idea of what's going on, and how to continue your support of this wonderful story! Arc isn't giving up, and neither are we! If you love this game, help us make this happen! there are Vanguard roles open (for those of you who know what that means; if you don't, come find out!)

This game is amazing... The story is amazing... the characters are engaging, deep, and amazing. I could gush about this all day... go check out Runey's Patreon. Seriously. This one is worth it!

That isn't in any of the current tags, nor in the planned tags... I've played this game inside out and backwards... there's none of that anywhere. Are you sure you're commenting on the right game...?

Kudos to PastryIRL for not just a better "Konosuba" fan/parody game, but for offering real, tangible rewards (I.E. cheat codes, etc) for even the lowest tier supporters, showing appreciation for even small contributions. You have no idea how much more some of us would like to contribute, but simply currently are unable to. We appreciate you! 5 stars for a great game so far!

Points to anyone that can see the "demo" link in small print at the top of the main page; the "Demo"(free) version is the same as this version ($9.99). Be sure to read all the fine print on anything from this dev, both here and on their Patreon.

Don't bother with Patreon unless you plan to spend at least $5 monthly... there is a $2 tier, however all it really gives you is access to the Discord, and you will still be fully two updates behind on the version of the game.

Essentially, this means that if this game takes a year or more to develop, you won't get any real benefits from the patreon unless you spend $60 for that year (assuming the project actually finishes within that time frame, which does not seem to be the norm, and does not track with the schedule so far) and only if the game finishes within that year (this equates to AAA game title cost). Recommend sticking out the free version, for obvious reasons, taking into consideration both the time between updates, and the size of the current product. I can't recommend any dev that only appreciates their higher paying supporters, and not ALL of their supporters.

Looks dead... Patreon is gone, and nothing since Feb...

Quick question: I know you have a subscribestar, but why not a Patreon? I had to make a choice, because I don't want yet another account/password adding to an already staggering number of username/passwords I have to keep track of... is this the main reason for you as well? 

With a Patreon, I would feel better with a sub to you... I'd just buy it here, but I don't know how much you actually get from the purchase, or rather, I don't know how big of a slice Itch takes. You deserve something for all of the work that went into this... it's one of the first sandbox AVNs I downloaded, and hooked me into the genre (came for the lewd, stayed for the story).

Long story short (too late) is buying it from Itch the only way to donate to the cause without subscribestar? Is there a way to help beyond this?

Serious question: Where is Alice...? Did I miss something...?

:: EDIT :: At first I thought, surely, she'd be with the other children.. or maybe just a place in the mansion that I keep missing.... but I've searched, and unless I'm missing a trigger somewhere, Chloe's little sister is completely MIA.... and about that: WHY is nobody mentioning this...?

I know she was there when MC woke up, so I know she made it through the initial mess, and that Ard saved her... but after the initial action she just poofs... Is there just no interaction with her as there is with the other children?  So odd... I know what I bought this game for, initially, lol... I did NOT expect to become this emotionally invested in the family this MC has created... sheesh.

I'm at lowest tier, but I'm on board... it's not much, but it's what I can do for now... I want to see this through! I'll be over here rooting... and hoping that all my adorable waifus make it out more or less in one piece...

Thank you so much for an incredible journey so far!

Well, it's not that bad... it's lowest tier, but I'm on board. I think it'll be worth it. Can't wait to see this journey through! I'll be rooting for you!

Health, first... no worries. This game is more than good enough to wait for! Get well soon!

gonna rev this one up from the beginning... Thank you for all your hard work, Jestur! Amazing game!

I gave this 5 well earned stars, and posted the following review. AS SOON AS I HAVE FUNDS TO SPARE I will do what I can to support this masterpiece...

I'm not sure where to start... this game is incredible on so many levels...

Humor - often unexpected, well timed, and heartfelt belly laughs... often and cleverly executed!

Characters - Deep, unique, lovable, and sexy... this game really delivers beautiful, intriguing women!

Plot- You'll be hard-pressed to find a story line that delivers as much mystery, intrigue, action, and genuine emotion... and lets not forget all the lewd...

Lewdness- it's not often it's done like this: classy with a touch of innocent exploration one minute, raw and powerfully passionate the next... fortunately only one hand is required to play...

Renders and artwork- Absolutely stunning!

Soundtrack- A lot of love went into the search for this amazing soundtrack... every one of the tunes seems to accentuate the story perfectly, adding to the already entrancing atmosphere!

 Overall- Play this, buy it, support the Dev... you won't regret it!

Please follow this through; This game is a real gem so far! All the characters are fun, deep, lovable, and beautifully done! (can't figure out why everyone hates on Jun, lol... it's not nice to pick on someone for being smol!)

I love that it's also frequently updated, and the obvious care taken to ensure a happy customer base, and a wonderfully fulfilling story. I WILL eventually buy into this, as it's proving more and more worth it, and have already given you a five star. I'm still considering the patreon thing... although to be fair I would break myself trying to support all the devs I've found on here worth supporting (which is why I hesitate; the decision would be simple if I had the funds). At the very least, I endorse (and will pay) what most consider to be a "Triple A" price for the finished game!

KUDOS!!

YES! That was frustrating... to not be able to tell the mothers that the kids were still safe... some kind of comfort for the last three months of uncertainty, fear, and loss.

***SPOILER ALERT***

Don't go any further if you don't want details...

This game is amazing, first of all - EASILY in my top 3 AVNs, currently reigning champ. Period.

Yeah, I MIGHT be mad enough at Maven, after seeing what she did to Kana, to break my no kill rule... but I'm DEFINITELY mad enough at that talking tree branch (for sicking DOGS on a two women watching over CHILDREN) to break that rule AFTER taking my time with some good old fashioned stress relief; and I'm not talking about the tickle-happy kind. 

Not gonna lie, Arc... this game sucked me in... good mechanics, GREAT storytelling, moral choices, horror, self questioning... and then joy, love, sensuality, lewdness, hilarity, sensitivity... Seriously, dude, when the MCs kids tackle him with joy and all start crying? Dude... I'm a correctional officer, and you made me f*cking cry! For real? Not ten minutes later I'm ready to go utterly apeshit-medieval on the c*ck-juggling-thunderc*nt (thank you, Ryan Reynolds for that glorious descriptive) that tied my favorite wolf mama to a tree after nearly killing her! That was after freaking out thinking she WAS dead when I found her...

Please pardon the crudeness of my descriptions; doesn't matter how frilly the words, I couldn't convey how I properly feel about this game right now, as I literally just went through all of that. I'm in awe. PLEASE keep this up. I'm not on your Patreon, but I would HAPPILY pay a triple A price here on Itch to see this to its conclusion.

If you're on a team, y'all are heroes.

if you're doing this solo, you must be some kind of AVN God.

Either way, I salute you!

Snake City... if you look up "Eternum" on Youtube, they have pretty much the whole soundtrack.

Catchy tune... stuck in my head even now...
