Secret Island [v0.10.8] [NocturnalDev]

November 17, 2024F95

Set in a modern fantasy world, Secret Island puts you in the shoes of a powerful sorcerer and battle-hardened mercenary. After being caught in a war you never wanted to be a part of, you fought just for the chance to get revenge on some people on the other side, just to be betrayed as you got your revenge. Shot and left at sea, you found yourself on an unknown island, saved by a group of intriguing women, not all of them human. Strangely, you’ve never heard of this place before.

As you settle into life on the island, you quickly realize something is amiss. People can’t leave, despite hearing messages from the outside world. Mysterious magic seals protect various parts of the island. People don’t want to talk about other people living on the island. You are filled with questions about who else is living on the island, about who made the magic seals, what dangers lurk around, and why you are there. Both you and your newfound companions harbor secrets.

Explore the island. Discover the lore of this world. Meet new people, bring them to live with you, and delve into romantic relationships with them.

Final release for chapter 10. With that we conclude another chapter. We did our best to keep things well between us and the Casino Gang. We can expect to get their full cooperation from now on.

We also have a new feature that we are testing. Supporters now have access to update codes. Under the main screen’s build version, you can click the update button and input the code. This will allow you to install alphas, betas, releases, and special scenes quickly. This new feature was also added to v0.10.0.1. So, if you have downloaded it and want to update to 0.10.4 you can already use it. This is a new feature, and bugs might occur. If you have any issues, please tell me, and send me any error codes or messages you might get. On a sad note, I couldn’t make it work for Mac yet. I believe there are limitations and the SO just won’t let me change any files inside the game.

They are still a necessary evil, as there are worse problems around. At the same time, your relationship progresses with the others, sometimes for better and other times for worse.

Special 3 is now available.

Final release of chapter 8. One more down, 16 to go. This chapter has a lot of setup for things that will pay out later. We should go back to the offensive in the next chapter. If the oozes are to attack again, it should be soon. The second special scene is now available on Patreon/Subscribestar. Like the last special scene, we flashback to a long time ago. This time around 150 years ago, when MC was a young adult and worked as a mercenary. We will watch as he tries to get Bianka, a Half-elf girl, to her father. This scene might give you some insight on how much he changed in the last century.

The revised second part of chapter 8. We got to the end of chapter 2. We will still have a third and final part for chapter 8. With this update, I have added something new: special scenes. They will only be available for people on the 5$ tier and above, at least until the final release of the game. I will also add a small pool on Patreon/Subscribestar to decide what will be the next special scene.

Version 0.7.4-release is out

13k new words (228k total)

The first part of this update is done. We got to quickly meet the new arrivals, visit the onsen you cleaned, and watch Freya do a really dumb thing. Dian has a plan, but is it worth it? Next week, the next update will be available for the $1 tier. And in 3 weeks to everyone on Discord.

With this update, I have added something new: special scenes. They will only be available for people on the 5$ tier and above, at least until the final release of the game. I will also add a small pool on Patreon/Subscribestar to decide what will be the next special scene.

2 new repeatable scenes (1 Hannah, 1 Aster) (6 total)

Chapter 7 was revised and fixed. We got to the end of day 47. A bunch of things happened in this chapter, new questions, and some answers. The breaking of the second seal, and some of its consequences. We might end this one with a bit of a cliffhanger. Now, to chapter 8.

232 new renders (3835 total).
12 new animations (196 total).
14k words (200k total).
17 new scenes (1 Laura, 1 Claire, 1 Iris, 3 Mixed, 1 Sarah, 1 Koriso, 1 Aster, 1 Beren, 1 Bella, 1 Toshi, 1 Kym, 1 Dian) (214 total)

The second part of this chapter. The next release should be 0.7 with the conclusion of this chapter. At first, I planned to make releases only of the whole chapter, so the ‘main story’ was going to happen at the start and end of chapters. With the days in between being more of a slice of life. Since I changed to monthly releases (and after some feedback), I started to better distribute the main story. So we get a bit of the main story each in-game day. I think that has been working well.

19k words (186k total)
303 new renders (3603 total)
7 new animations (184 total)
10 new scenes (1 Hannah, 1 Eloise, 1 Helena, 5 Mixed, 1 Iris, 1 Ada) (200 total)
Fix on renpy voiceover. It should work better for people with visual impairments who need it to play the game.

In the first update in this chapter, we will be learning the consequences of the end of chapter 6. Explaining lots of things, and following it with how some people feel about what they learned.

14k new words (167k total)
353 new renders (3300 total)
22 new animations (177 total)
16 new scenes (12 Mixed, 1 Alone, 1 Laura, 2 ???) (190 total)
Preference options to turn off animations and spell fonts. Should fix issues for people playing unofficial versions for browsers or slower devices.

Chapter 6 is done. With it, we finished the first part of the story. A big reveal waits you by the end of this chapter, with more information on that at the start of the next chapter.

15k new words. (153k total)
200 new renders. (2947 total)
28 new animations. (155 total)
11 new scenes. (1 Claire, 1 Beren, 1 Mina, 1 Helena, 6 Mixed, 1 Hannah)(174 total)

The first part of chapter 6. We can see the consequences and everyone’s reaction to the events at the end of chapter 5, and get some time to know the 4 new characters. We already have version 0.6 available for Patreon/Subscribestar members, and we will release it 1 week earlier on Discord. This is your last time to make predictions about the MC, as everything is revealed on v0.6, and details will be given in v0.6.4 about it.

8k new words. (138k total)
230 new renders. (2747 total)

2 new repeatable scenes. (1 Eloise, 1 Laura) (4 total)

The final release on chapter 5. From the beta I have done a bunch of reviews, added sfx, updated walkthrough, and updated the extras screen. I did a bunch of changes to the profile screen, it actually has a profile now. It has some information on the girls, and allow you to change their outfit on this screen. This is the first version of this screen, I do plan to improve it later.

Today is the 1-year anniversary of Secret Island. The first public release was made exactly 1 year from now. 4 chapters released in the spawn of a year. Around the same time it took to make my first release. The first chapter was the hardest, from learning how to use Chara Studio, to getting used to Renpy, and changing my mind about the game, it took way more time than just making it. I believe I made big improvements to the game thanks to the feedback of many of you. So, a big thanks to everyone who plays the game!

13k new words. (130k total)
11 new scenes. (1 Hannah, 1 Eloise, 1 Sarah, 1 Helena, 1 Mixed, 1 Laura, 1 Tahlia, 1 Iris, 3 Mixed) (145 scenes total)
135 new renders. (2517 total)
15 new animations. (106 total)

The second update for chapter five is here. v0.5, the end of the chapter, is available on patreon and subscribestar. With that, I will be starting chapter 6 this week.

12k new words (117k words total)
2 new repeatable scenes.

A small update, I know. But I did a bunch of reviews and fixes to older content. I hope it is a good start for the chapter. Now, when mc is going to sleep you might be able to ask other characters to sleep with you.

v0.4.8 is available on patreon and subscribestar.

11k new words (87k words total)

Part 1 of chapter 4 update. We end in the middle of day 24. This release will be in early access for a month, the same way as 0.3-release. I’ll make one week early release on Discord. I hope you people like where this is going. v03.3.7 is available for early access.

I’ve also updated the walkthourgh/choices guide. Feel free to make any comment, feedback, suggestion.

283 new renders (1755 renders total)
17 new scenes (94 scenes total)
14k new words (76k words total)
16 new animations (51 total)

This concludes chapter 3. This release will be exclusive for subscribers on the $5 tier+, next week I will release it for the $1 tier in Patreon. In three weeks I will make a release here, as a gift for the people in discord. In four weeks I’ll make it public in other platforms. I hope you all like this update, feel free to give me any feedback. I have used a couple AIs to help me review and fix grammar, so I hope the text quality in this update has increased. With fewer typos, and grammar mistakes. I have also added a Walkthrough/Choice Guide to the $10 tier. I’ll keep this updated in the next updates.

First half of chapter 3.
17 new events
17k new words
305 new renders
9 new animations

Updated Mina&Ami’s path. You can choose to not watch their scenes and still add them to the harem later, or complete ignore them.
Multiple grammar fixes. Probably won’t be perfect, but certainly better.
Added content filter. The content filter options choice menu will appear for you the first time you start a game or load a save. You can change your choices at the preferences screen.
Added a small tutorial that will show the first time you start a game or load a save, to explain that the order of the choice menu is random, and that the numbers are keyboard shortcuts.
A few people were having issues with animations. I did a change that should fix that. You might need to load a save before the animation in question, or you can rewatch the scenes in the extras.
