Only I Have Skills [v1.00] [Orangelo]

May 18, 2024F95

Only I Have Skills (OIHS) is a semi-linear visual novel by orangelo. Our text-based adult story follows an unassuming and altogether underwhelming protagonist who meets his untimely demise at the cruel hands of a… speeding truck? But wait — things turn out better than one might expect…! In a medieval fantasy world filled with magic and monsters, how will our protagonist survive?

v0.23.3

Thanks for the wait, everyone! Here’s the biggest chapter I’ve written since… forever, maybe. No idea what happened; it was just supposed to be set-up for the next arc… but things just kept getting longer and longer. And then I decided to get ambitious and draw even more sprites :p It’s a thicc one, so feel free to take it slow, I guess.

This was a particularly hard chapter to write. Mostly because I’ve become so used to the episodic nature of Rajt encounters — and now we’re back to heavy plot points. The meaty, gritty stuff. So things might be a little more serious than the usual. Pacing was a little difficult to nail down due to… certain developments — no spoilers. But all this is the fun of writing, right?

Anyway. I’ve also had to change some parts of the Minervus encounter. At first, I thought you’d only get to meet him if you helped the Wolf Thief in the Marketplace. But then I realised that Minervus is entirely essential to the concluding arc of the Tasks, so people who chose to send the Wolf to jail would be locked out. I’ve fixed it now… but there might be mistakes. Let me know!

That’s about it from me. Enjoy!

v0.06

Hello all! The September update is out. More smut! New character! I really like him.

(Spoilers!) Recap from last update:

You found yourself confronted by one of the beasts in the dungeon — a deadly sverocat. The encounter leads to the appearance of a stranger with strange magical abilities and an even stranger personality. Taking a liking to you, he bestows you with a gift of sorts before disappearing. The rest of the chapter saw you exploring the perilous dungeon you’ve found yourself in. Eventually, you manage to find what you thought was the exit — but the doors only lead to an entirely different part of the dungeon.

This game is NSFW and features homoerotic content targeted towards submissive bottoms. Content Warning: Only I Have Skills features sexual content containing non-con elements, non-human sex, violence, gangbang, impregnation, and more. If any of these trouble you, please proceed with caution.
