While Temptations Ballad and Repeat are both good (at least imo), there are a lot of really other good ones too. To name a couple newer ones I enjoyed, Lust Shards and Soulcreek, and some older ones like Santa Lucia and Echo. I started with Repeat and after that I just branched out and learned about more. I don't regret it either. The Furry VN community puts ot some great top tier stuff
The story building is flawless and the character development is to this truly is a one in a million diamond of a story game, I seriously can't wait for the next update and for the story to continue!
Click the follow button on the main game page on the top right. It sends updates in your email! May send updates about different projects the creator is working on, though!
I forgot to comment when I played this a few weeks ago, but this is seriously one of my favorite VN's... ever! Not only does the setting make for a really immersive experience (and is one of my favorite types of settings to explore), the story and worldbuilding makes it an experience you won't forget anytime soon.
Truly, though, does nothing stand out more than the wonderful cast of characters. I don't think I disliked a single character, including the side characters. All of them are just so likable, funny, interesting, charming, etc. I could keep going about what makes the characters just so good, but then I would be here forever, lol! (Personal favorite being Artemi)
Each of the characters even the side ones are so well written, clear personality differences and each one is so well rounded. I also love the dnd setting of the whole VN as I'm a player and DM myself. Can't wait for the next update. Will definitely give this one my support.
Unrelated to the game itself, sorry. The description says that "If on ... Linux, simply delete the old game folder and download the new build. Your saves are stored in your local files, so they should be retained after the update." Now I don't know how it is Windows or Mac but on Linux the game saves are saved within the game folder, in ./game/saves. In order to update on Linux you should just install the new version and manually transfer the save files over and then delete the old version if you so desire.
I just downloaded and played the latest update….. just. WOW. The character development for Cole is so good. And the way he had that talk with him, Sidd is peak boyfriend material. Although it’s small, I loved this update! I look forward to the next one!
Shirokoi, you are amazing with the VNs you put out. The art and writing are amazing, from the settings, to the plot and its twists, the character building, and especially the dialogue, there are so many moments throughout both of your vis novs I've played where I just go "Aww" from adorable moments and silent lines. Once I can, I will definitely send some support through patreon.
I had so many doubts when I first saw this vn but I really don't regret ever giving this a big fat chance. This is so amazing and deserves a full on support!
I think the opening to Spy x Family fits the Bonebreaker family so well. After listening to the song(which basically describes the Forger Family) it kinda fits them too because they kind of mirror Loid, Anya and Yor(who are a spy, psychic and assassin). In this case the family consists of a Barbarian(Marrow's class), a Ranger/Hunter(Hamish) and Bard(Cole), and all have their secrets which they hide from each other, but theyre just as much as a real family just like Loid, Anya and Yor. The song reminds me of them so much.
as to what secrets the Bonebreaker family is hiding i'll avoid saying here because spoilers
To tell you the truth after I finished the most recent update on here I can understand why Cole have trust issues honestly I have trust issues myself so I understood why he did what he did but I still feel more like Sidd and I know I may be alone on this one but I hope him and Cole end up together but I can see how people might think that Clyde and Cole should end up back together by the end of the story and I also hope Hamish doesn't turn out to be the villain by the end of the story.
did you read the most recent update because as for me that's what I'm getting from the Creator of the visual novel has written so far I love Hamish but he might just like Cole for what he did but like I said in my previous comment on the novel I sympathize with Cole again I hope I'm wrong
friend recommended this vn and i can't thank him enough for showing me this great vn u did a amazing job hope to see more amazing content of u in the future
ngl this is probably the best vn out there in terms of story and art. The characters are just so lovable and cgs are well made and hilarious when they need to be. overall this has a lot of potential and i cant wait to see what is next.
Also, repeat is also a great vn and i cant wait for the art rework. 😀
Wow, that was one emotional bomb we got here... Well, we were told that Hamish was prone to tear sometime in private, but that is a whole other level. Masterfully written i say! i'm looking forward for...well pretty much anything since I know it will be good
Aaw thank you! I'm glad Hamish's backstory hit the mark for folks. I'm looking forward to diving deeper into the yeen dads' past in future chapters ;w;/
also, i just wanted to share a thought about the new part of the story, so spoilers ahead...
I feel as if Marrow would be frustrated with Hamish at the most, but i think, knowing Marrow's personality, he would be more frustrated at himself, since the outer image of his hatred toward magic had prevented not only his lover, but his own son from telling him about their magic, which is kinda part of their identity. Idk i feel like he might get a bit depresso over that realization
just a thought, lotta people prolly had the same one, but i just wanted to throw it out there. Cant wait for the next part :D!
I am in love with this story. Every update is amazing and never what I think. Just wish I didn't have to reinstall the file everytime, that's a lot of skipping lol.
Ah sorry, the Android build of the game always gets wonky because of the Renpy engine. I'm planning to add a Chapter Select screen to the main menu to hopefully alleviate some of these issues in the future ;w;

holy shit, just sat down to give this a a try... and the 'pirate-dance' track is kind of a hit! where'd that come from??
This is so entertaining, I greatly look forward to future updates!
THE STORY IS SOOO GOODDD AND THE CHARACTERS TOO!!! I LOVE THEM ALL
no.
the only visual novels i will ever play are Temptations Ballad and Repeat <3
While Temptations Ballad and Repeat are both good (at least imo), there are a lot of really other good ones too.

Just because there isn't other 10/10 furry VN's doesn't mean you can't enjoy some 8/10 or 7/10
You know, compared to other VNs, this is the most bit sized VN game that I ever download!
played it in one sitting, and loved it! marrow and hamish are the best, i wish they had more sprites, they deserve the world
i just finished all the way up to the people just fainting. I really really love this game and would love more content on it. Its just so amazing
¡*SPOILERS*!
What is the song called in this scene?
Sidd's theme. It's in the game files as sidd-theme.ogg

Will be keeping up with TB for sure!
When I try to update it It says app not installed as package conflicts with an existing package also I'm on Android if it helps
anyone who is interested should check out Temptation's Ballad's PDB page

it could really use some votes on the profiles

Good that Cole is facing his actions but some of it is unjustified. He did have to go through some shit in that household.
version 0.2.3 no longer works for windows problems with rendering never had this screen or problem before. WHYYY!!!

AFAIK. Renpy should have both local and global (central) save folders on all platforms.
Local being in the game directory and the global directory should have save folders of every single game (on Windows AppData\Roaming\RenPy).
On Linux the global directory should be ~/.renpy/game_directory.
BTW. If you ever want to nuke saves for a game, you need to delete both the local and global save folders for that game.
This was beautiful

Comedy and adventuring VN
Cool!
Some this month the next version?
maybe something with Sidd after the win?

Why Hamish thought???

Great update. Chibi Hamish was so cute. And I guess Cole will never let "Lord Merrick" hear the end of it now.

This VN has got some of the most incredible art and chemistry between the characters I've ever seen.
Also HAPPY PRIDE!!!

I appreciate it, keep up the outstanding work my friend
Why are hyena dads in visual novels always so good? Hamish and Marrow are so sweet and I love them so much
Seriously their backstory just keeps getting deeper.
