I wish vns that got cancelled would at least tell me the ending they had in mind so I don't have to suffer wondering forever 😭 ah well good luck on your future projects 😄
Haha- make sure to say please at least. But please give me a moment to consider releasing the Patreon 3.1 to the public, there are some things in the background that I need to look into first.
Damn, I never thought Charos reminds me a lot of my old self but I do love where this story goes. Especially the part when he found his Dad and went Incognito mode by comunicating with hand sign. Great, now I feel the need to learn that. Hope it's almost time for a new update cuz my curiosity is hard to suppress any longer
I've only just started this game (I'm on chapter six) but I'm already loving it! It's amazing, and feels so much more real than most other visual novels I've played! It's an actual story, and I feel like I could read an entire series of it.
Hi! Thanks for asking- Spoiler alert below, read at your own discretion. ---
I assume Chapter Ten may be the reason preventing you from obtaining Duke's final ability. There are two paths in Chapter Ten- if you side with Irma frequently, you will land on the undesirable path where it negatively affect everyone's bond and friendship points involved. To avoid that undesirable path- Always side with Duke, continue avoiding Phylou's (Charos) wrath like "Fly!", and then side with Duke/Gary Combo attacks. (Using Sheila's Foresight will give you that bonus points, so do that too). At the end, you should land on the desirable path where it gives bonds and friendship points to everyone else involved.
Other than Chapter Ten, from Prologue to Chapter Nine- Remain loyal and truthful to your friends especially Duke and Irma. Be straight to the point. None of that hiding secrets stuff. Reasonable doubt is good, but does not benefit Duke and Irma both. Be sassy, Duke really love that! For difficult choices such as this scene "Don't do it" and "No harm done...?", choose the "No harm done...?". Then coming across the option, choose "Pass the hot potato". You should always choose to speak up whenever Duke give you that opportunity, he appreciates someone taking the lead. So choose "I did" instead of "I should let Duke speak". The most important thing about Duke's route is that you should at least get closer to Rubio including the sex on Day One (Prologue). That's the way to get into Duke's vulnerable side. Not choosing Duke for Fox Den barely have any impact on the entire storyline, so no worries about that.
To summarize, you need more than 18 Bond points with Duke to get that final ability. You can still miss one or two opportunities with Duke from Prologue-Chapter Nine, but you need to land the most optimal route for Duke on Chapter Ten during the battle in order to get his final ability. I hope that helps! ^_^
Hehe! No worries, that certain choice is very unusual but for Duke himself, he appreciates you for seeing who he truly is rather than trying to hide it from you constantly.
Can anyone explain something for me? I dowloaded the newest update, as I haven't played since september. I open the new app that it downloaded ad my saves are there, but when I attempt to load one it warns me that it was made on another device, and when I tell it to proceed all it does is just give me a rollback error screen
Hi! I'm going to copy and paste the problem with Ren'Py below.
**Ren'py 7.6.0 introduced a warning when loading a save that comes from a different computer, and asks you to confirm loading. You won't see this with saves made in the latest version of Tales of Onyx, but you will see this message with saves made in this version. This is why it is being said "Made on another device".
For this reason, I recommend playing new and save your new save file over the old saves.
Thank you for replying! I don't know why it can act weirdly like that. but you're good to go when you start a new save. When you encounter error screen, please screenshot it and send it to me through Discord server or put it under this reply here. ^_^
Hii- thank you! Duke and Gary Beach Scenes are currently in the Patreon version, of which will become available here later on. Look forward to that, friend!
Thank you- I'm investigating as to why this happened. It never happened before, so I want to prevent this from happening in the future releases. I'll do what I can to get it done for my lovely readers like yourself.
This was the Greates game i ever read in my intire life and you should make more parts is was talking about 10 or 11 but it was a really great story and i reallyyy hope you make more off this game😁🙏
Hii! At the moment, some aspects of the VN is being tested by patrons. The sprites, BGs and as well as CG scenes will be reworked as well. I'm deciding on when to release the public version after I've made sure it looks great start. I believe our readers can expect a lovely Christmas gift.
Thank you for asking! The guide is being worked on currently, and will be released sometimes soon. In this case, it will be on our Tales of Onyx Discord server as well.
You are gladly welcome. Once figuring out how to download(patreon(, completed my first run through the story to this point. Thanks for the new addiction XD
Heh, I'm glad! You can always replay, see what and how your choices will change the course of this story line too! (Along with multiple husbandos even).
Why yes, it does have NSFW materials dotted across the chapters. ^_^
It depends on your choices made every chapter. For example, there is one CG scene with Rubio at the very beginning- to get there, make sure you play your choices in Rubio's favor. At least until during the Fox Den event you'll have access to many CG scenes that will eventually become available.
So there's very few vns that make me physically want to dive into the creators world and this is one such vn. i discovered this one 2 days ago and im eager to see whats next ^^
Hi, maybe It's too late to say this. But I found what I think is a grammar error. The line in question goes "I sat down to hug my legs, an buries my face into my arms." The word "buries" would be replaced by "bury". "Buries" is used for third person, as I have been taught. Sorry if this is incorrect. English is not my native language. XD
Hi ZelarP, would you like to join our Discord server where you can post the mistakes there instead of here? Rev might be able to explain better than I could! My native language is ASL, not English. ^_^
Quick question, how do I play these games on iPhone? Sorry this isn’t entirely specific to this game but I want to try this one and some others out but can’t open the iOS app files or dmg files and can’t find a fix that doesn’t need a computer (my computer is dead at the moment). Any help would be super appreciated:3
This is actually a great question to ask. I took a moment to research and see if it is possible for you to be able to play any other VNs on your iPhone. (I have my iPhone too, it would be so nice to make this come to reality!)
This is what I found- and checked with Ren'Py website. So far, this appears that I would need to create iOS distribution version. As a developer myself, I could honestly make this happen just for you and probably others who stop by. My only concern is that it mentioned several drawbacks when creating the iOS version, this is something I have to try and test to make sure it really works.
No worries, I’m just in a crappy situation with my laptop in need of repair and my only online access is with my portable devices or my Xbox. Once I get life sorted back on track it shouldn’t be an issue. For now I can try the browser-optional games if needed. Thanks for the feedback! :3
Thank you for asking! Referring to the husbandos picture I posted on main page- we can see there will be six husbandos. Counting three husbands we have met so far... We, the readers, are actively building up the love points based on choices made. After we have learned about these husbandos we met, we will be able to choose (IF set # of love points are met) one of them to go on a different route. Choose wisely, for there are alternative endings and only one TRUE ending. <3
Sorry! I forgot to add one thing- We are currently in first arc as known as "Pharyna Arc". Patreon Version 2.5 is pretty close to the ending of first arc. Somewhere in the second arc AKA "Decomphi Arc", that will be when the possible routes come into play for us to choose. ^_^
Quick question, out of curiosity, is Charos bisexual? he seems to have some sort of fixation with boobs, and if that's the case, will we get a FemalexMale scene sometime? :3
Hahaha xP. Charos is gay, but we do have bisexual characters to meet somewhere in the VN. As for this specific scene, that is a good question left for the future. ^_^
I wanted to read it because the art looks really nice but the way it’s written is so distractingly wonky right off the bat that I couldn’t bring myself to finish the prologue.
From that very limited reading I get the impression that you should really consider getting an editor, or equivalent.
Thank you for your kind opinion! Can you please explain what you meant by “distractingly wonky”? This is a very first complaint I have received. Would like to understand you better. ^_^
Sure, let me explain and point out some places where that happens.
What I mean is that the wording in lot of sentences sounds unnatural to me and grammatical errors seem pretty common. I find that distracting and unpleasant.
(I’m writing these pretty quickly and a couple might come across as a bit nit-picky, but I hope my point comes across.)
For example, the very first line, “[…] In a appearance of black crystal.” (weird wording), later on “[…] Onyx fed the planet with necessary ingredients to create life.” (missing ‘the’ before ‘ingredients’) , then right after “Just like mother nurses her baby […]” (missing ‘a’ before ‘mother’), then “The barren, primordial world became a habitable planet enough to sustain life. […]” (‘a habitable enough planet’ or ‘a planet habitable enough’ work, but not ‘a habitalbe planet enough’), “Onyx knew there will be […]” (‘there would be’), “Fearing Opan will destroy […]” (‘would destroy’), “That is known as the trio of guardians.” (‘They are’, not ‘That is’), “At last ditch effort […]” (‘As a’, not ‘At’).
Errors like these being this common just gives the impression the writing was done without the proper care, you know? To me it’s the writing equivalent of a very bad first impression, and that’s why I drop vns and novels that have them at the beginning.

You should change the status of the game, its currently labelled as canceled.
Thank you so much for noticing that, I actually overlooked that it was literally sitting on the main page. Updating this now. ^_^
From canceled to on hiatus, this are some great news boys!
hope we get a post explaining it soon
Certainly. We're working on the details and see from there, then make a post about what our plans are.
This is unexpected. Well, looking forward to see what your plans are.
I wish vns that got cancelled would at least tell me the ending they had in mind so I don't have to suffer wondering forever 😭 ah well good luck on your future projects 😄
I considered that but for now the VN is on hiatus instead of being cancelled. A post will be made in few days.
Can we at least get v 3.1 for free?
Haha- make sure to say please at least. But please give me a moment to consider releasing the Patreon 3.1 to the public, there are some things in the background that I need to look into first.
Thanks 😁, looking forward to your next project. Have a great day
Why is it cancelled???
As stated in the recent post- our current artist left the team on his own terms.
Another one...
aw man and I was just looking forward to this VN it's a shame that it's gonna stop
Damn, I never thought Charos reminds me a lot of my old self but I do love where this story goes. Especially the part when he found his Dad and went Incognito mode by comunicating with hand sign. Great, now I feel the need to learn that. Hope it's almost time for a new update cuz my curiosity is hard to suppress any longer
hehe :)
Aw thanks!! We are doing our best to provide new update as soon as we can. :)
I've only just started this game (I'm on chapter six) but I'm already loving it! It's amazing, and feels so much more real than most other visual novels I've played! It's an actual story, and I feel like I could read an entire series of it.
Thank you so much! I'm really glad you're enjoying what we have to provide. <3
I absolutely adore where the story is going~ 😊 everything seems to be coming together so nicely 😌
Irma and Sheila are such fujoshi and I absolutely lovit! 😆 please make more scenes with them fawning over (or spying on 😏) Duke and Charos~ 😁
Hehe! Look forward to it. x3
excuse me, can anyone explain to me how to get the duke's final ability? I've tried multiple variations, but it always not enough to get it.
it says that there are steps that i miss, but I really can't find which one. is there perhaps certain combination of choices that affect this outcome?
thank you

thank you very much for the answer. Now I understand which part that I mistaken.
I was thinking that duke will consider me rude and hate me instead if I choose to peek at his house, my bad.
Hehe! No worries, that certain choice is very unusual but for Duke himself, he appreciates you for seeing who he truly is rather than trying to hide it from you constantly.

Side note: Ren'Py I'm using is now running on 8.1.3
the confusing thing is that it's the same save I started the game with, and it's also the same device.

HAPPY NEW YEEAAAR CHAROS AND GOOD LUCK IN THE FUTURE!!! ✨✨⭐❤️❤️❤️🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Happy New Years to you too, thanks!! <3
Show post...
I saw that in the gallery there is Duke Beach, how do I get to this point? I can't wait to get on with the story, great story
Hii- thank you! Duke and Gary Beach Scenes are currently in the Patreon version, of which will become available here later on. Look forward to that, friend!
where's the download button At?
This is fixed now, I will be making announcement. Please try again and it should work properly. ^_^
I have the same issue as him. \/
Replied to the OP below. Investigating the problem! Thank you!
Sorry, I downloaded version 2.7 and did not find the exe file in the archive or in the unpacked folder, where is it?
Thank you- I'm investigating as to why this happened. It never happened before, so I want to prevent this from happening in the future releases. I'll do what I can to get it done for my lovely readers like yourself.
This was the Greates game i ever read in my intire life and you should make more parts is was talking about 10 or 11 but it was a really great story and i reallyyy hope you make more off this game😁🙏
Thank you! Chapter Ten/Eleven, right?
Will a public version be released soon? I just want to know information
Hii! At the moment, some aspects of the VN is being tested by patrons. The sprites, BGs and as well as CG scenes will be reworked as well. I'm deciding on when to release the public version after I've made sure it looks great start. I believe our readers can expect a lovely Christmas gift.
Oh, that's awesome. So I'll be looking forward to read it
Is there any guide to this game ? Like how to get all nsfw scenes or how to get all the hearts of certain characters?
Thank you for asking! The guide is being worked on currently, and will be released sometimes soon. In this case, it will be on our Tales of Onyx Discord server as well.
I know there is a discord but I want to make this post here.
I just read the whole public update in one go! I got too immersed and couldn't stop. Now, I shall go to your patreon because I need more!
A beautiful story that you've created and can't wait to see it grow!
Aww, thank you! That meant a lot to me. ^_^
You are gladly welcome. Once figuring out how to download(patreon(, completed my first run through the story to this point. Thanks for the new addiction XD
Heh, I'm glad! You can always replay, see what and how your choices will change the course of this story line too! (Along with multiple husbandos even).
Learned that i got lucky and didn't get any bad end. Tried a couple different choices on the big epic fight and died twice.
does it have NSFW ?
Why yes, it does have NSFW materials dotted across the chapters. ^_^
It depends on your choices made every chapter. For example, there is one CG scene with Rubio at the very beginning- to get there, make sure you play your choices in Rubio's favor. At least until during the Fox Den event you'll have access to many CG scenes that will eventually become available.
I can't seem to find the discord, could someone please point it out or send a link? Thanks.

There you go ^_^
Thank you so much, and thanks for creating this amazing vn, it is one of my favorites!
I loved
So there's very few vns that make me physically want to dive into the creators world and this is one such vn. i discovered this one 2 days ago and im eager to see whats next ^^
Aww. Thank you so much, it made my day to see your kind comment here. ^_^
Spoiler
Any advice for the battle against charos?
The story really piqued my mind, like wow! This VN is definitely recommended in my opinion.
Can't wait for the upcoming updates :D
I'm glad you enjoyed reading!!
Hi, maybe It's too late to say this. But I found what I think is a grammar error. The line in question goes "I sat down to hug my legs, an buries my face into my arms." The word "buries" would be replaced by "bury". "Buries" is used for third person, as I have been taught. Sorry if this is incorrect. English is not my native language. XD
Still, I'm liking this novel so far. Thank you!
Thank you, I'll ask Rev to look into it. ^_^
Okay, I found another mistake. "Grab" changes to "grabs". This time is third person :3
Hi ZelarP, would you like to join our Discord server where you can post the mistakes there instead of here? Rev might be able to explain better than I could! My native language is ASL, not English. ^_^
Oh, Right. I didn't notice that there's a discord server. Thank you.
I saw the thumbnail and immediately downloaded it, amazing VN so far!
Thank you! ^_^

No problem! ^_^
Yo hella typos in this game lol
I'm aware of the typos. They will be fixed, as you know, VNs like mine are under development as time goes by. :)
I'm in love with this story tho. It's great. keep it up
What are the possible routes for Version 2.2?
Thank you for asking! Referring to the husbandos picture I posted on main page- we can see there will be six husbandos. Counting three husbands we have met so far... We, the readers, are actively building up the love points based on choices made.

wow.. I didn't expect that flower thingy will actually talk, it is a nice thing tho..
That gary boy is very attractive and I'm sure I'm not the only one who think so eh.. *wink *wink
Hehe, oh yeah. We'll learn more about these plants from Decomphi.
You're not the only one too! xP
Quick question, out of curiosity, is Charos bisexual? he seems to have some sort of fixation with boobs, and if that's the case, will we get a FemalexMale scene sometime? :3

I just downloaded this game a few days ago and there is a new update already so I didn’t have to wait long ✨
I've only known Gary for about 3 minutes, but I already love this man!
