About the Upcoming Update


Hello everyone!

I wanted to share a quick devlog to clear up some doubts about the current development and give you a peek at what's coming next. 

🧛‍♀️ What’s the Priority? 

I recently ran a poll on my Discord server asking what should be the next big focus—and the most voted option was dialogues and interaction.

To move the project in that direction, I’ve started making major changes to the game’s structure.

💔 Goodbye Heart Counter, Hello Affection Meter


One of the first big changes involves the heart counter, which will be transformed into a new affection meter.

A lot of players have asked what the hearts were actually for. Truth is, when I started making the game, it was a much simpler project, and many features were added just for fun. Clickers were popular, so I thought: “Why not?”

But now that the game has grown, I’ve realized those hearts don’t add meaningful gameplay. Plus, with many players using auto-clickers, the counter feels even less relevant.

The heart counter as it currently exists will disappear. For those who have collected many of them, I’m sorry to say there will be a certain limit that I’ll have to apply.

In exchange, the new system will show in more detail how much our vampire girl likes us, and it will unlock new features and dialogues.

New Dialogues & Personalities

New dialogues are coming! Some may even vary depending on your vampire girl’s personality

This change is in progress, so I’ve had to pause translations for now, since even more content will need translating soon.
I know many were eager to play in their language quickly—but in hindsight, I should have saved localization for last. I gave in to demand, but it's best to resume it once the dialogues are finalized.

A Personal Note

Let me remind all my followers that I’m just one person—I make the design decisions, program the game, draw the graphics, write the dialogues, and also handle communication with you.  All of this in my free time, since I have personal matters that take up my time as well. I make the game as a hobby—you know it's free and I don’t profit from it.

That’s why I ask for patience from those demanding quick updates—it's simply not possible for me to do hundreds of things at once to speed up the process.

Other things

🎮 Minigames

Two new minigames are in the works:

  • 🧠 A memory game

  • 🎵 A rhythm game

🦇 Bat Form

You saw a preview! It’s still a bit buggy, so it needs more time in the oven.

🩸 Vampiric Instinct

That mysterious meter in the menu? It’s a future mechanic I forgot to hide. No use yet, but it’s coming!

👗 Clothes / Hair / Accessories

New content is on the way!
That said, customization won’t get major updates for now—it was the least voted feature in the poll.

📱 Samsung Device Compatibility

Some issues were found to be caused by processor architecture. This will be fixed in the next version.

📦 Google Play Version

I paid to open a dev account early this year, but I hit a roadblock with Google’s residency verification. I hope to fix that soon and release the game there.

🖥️ PC Version

Still planned for this year!

Final Words

That’s all for now—I hope I didn’t forget anything!
Thank you so much for reading everything and for supporting the project!

Stay tuned for more updates, and thanks for your patience and love 💌
