Congrats and questions to the Developers

[Rally the Heroes]

I just wanna say congratulations on the official release of Sensual Adventures - Treasure Island on Steam. I had kept my eyes on this game for a while. Had on my Steam Wishlist and bought it on the day it was released. (April 4)

I admit, it was Sensual Adventures Episode 5 and 6 and Sensual Adventures - The Game that got me into the series and I bought the Puppetmaster Mega Bundle 01 to support the series.

I already completed Chapter 1 and while I did encounter bugs/glitches, lags stuck/frozen, text mistakes, others etc, I know they will be fixed in due time. Can't wait for Chapter 2, playable character Trinity in Story Mode and more poses, decorations, and background environments in Studio Mode.

Now I have a lot of questions if that's ok? I know you are busy these days so when you have time.



1. Will you be supporting the game for many years with new content and bugs/glitches fixed even after it leaves Early Access one day?

2. How many people in the team do you have in total working on SATI?

3. Do you consider this to be an AA or AAA Adult RPG game?

4. Is SATI a sequel or prequel? Does it takes place before or after like Episode 9?

5. Will there be a CLOUD STATUS and Steam Achievements in the future?

6. Will there be more Save/Load slots like three? And the ability to delete and copy a save file to another load slot?

7. VR Support? (Although not for me) Steam Deck verified?

8. In Studio Mode, there are 2 options in Studio I can't click on. SAVE / LOAD and the other option is in the middle that looks like two arrows pointing left and right near the sound mute and weather/time change. What does these 2 options do?

9. How many quests are there in total at the moment? I sort of lost count when playing it the first time as I was focusing on finishing Chapter 1.

10. After the release of playable Trinity, have you thought about adding a Male Protagonist? No need to add two males, just one. I know the SA series is about female protagonists focusing on Brittany and Trinity but there could be players who prefer playing as a male protagonist. (Although in other games I'm fine with either but I prefer playing female especially on adult games.)

11. Since you are working on Chapter 2, will there be a total of 5 chapters just like Sensual Adventures - The Game? (2021)

12. Would there be a roadmap in 2025 for updates?

13. What inspired you to create SATI as a Adult RPG? What other video games inspired you and what lessons have you learned from your previous SA games?

14. I know it's been four years since released but will you add subtitles for Sensual Adventures Episode 5 and 6 Story video?

15. How did you start in the game industry?

16. Would you be buying the new Nintendo Switch 2 on June?

17. How will you deal with GTA 6 when released?!

1. It will depend of the level of success of the game, but right now yes, we are in it for the long run with many more features planned.

2. We have 4 people full time, and some part time team members, so overall you could average it to 5/6.

3. We consider this to be double A, but we are flattered you even raise the question to compare us to AAA!

4. I myself am not the most up to date with the stories (still some catching up to do) but I believe it is a sequel. I don't think I remember a Sensual Adventure story taking place after Treasure Islands.

5. Steam achievements definitely. Cloud status has been a topic of conversation.

6. Current Save Load is the first implementation of the system. Once we have it solid and tight we will make it more flexible for the users.

7. VR Support is a whole new layer of work, so for the moment not planned. Steam Deck is kind of the same topic, huge hardware difference for a realistic looking game so it needs its own build and adaptation.

8. Save and Load will let you have your presets saved (the level, the cameras and props you placed and their settings, so you can load your previously created movies). The other button is going to be to enable or disable the visibility of the "moving tool" which lets you adjust the rotation and position of the objects.

9. About a dozen. Depends what you call a quest as there are multi-level ones such as the flower deliveries.

10. We have not thought about it. Sensual Adventures is very much about FUTA protagonists so the initial main focus is on that. But we take in consideration all requests and discuss them internally!

11. This will depend of many parameters, no count has been set yet, but I can say that we have discussed other various topics of chapters after chapter 2, and we wouldn't know which one to pick yet. So, plenty ideas, but one thing at a time!

12. Probably once the initial launch has settled and we are starting the work on chapter 2.

13. I personally joined the team starting on that specific project (I dabbled a bit with the poseviewer aswell after joining) so I'm not the most fit to answer. What I can tell you is that : we want to provide an adult game, but also a game. When creating adult games, it's easy to skim over the depth of the story and gameplay to get that quick rush. We want to make a proper meaningful game where both the mechanics and story feel nice while still having the NSFW aspect omnipresent. The inspirations we have sometimes can come from places you wouldn't expect, for example Zelda for quest states and time of day relationships with characters.

14. I will bring it up, no promises, we have plenty on our plate with this here haha!

15. Not fit to answer exactly what you ask, but personally I went from being a really hardcore gamer in both variety and competitive games to one day burning out a little and thinking "time to give back to the community that's kept me entertained so much". So I went ham on learning programming and here we are 2 and ah alf years later!

16. As a game studio it is quite important to keep up with hardware releases and testing various things, for inspiration only if anything, so probably some members of the team will get it!

17. I personally will deal with it with a warm coffee and a group of friends, wrecking havoc or working jobs through the city :D. I don't think the launch will affect us directly, maybe gamers will be focused and distracted away from Treasure Islands for a bit and that is totally understandable ha!

4) Just answering the story question. =)

Treasure Island takes place after Episode 6.

Episodes 7-9 take place in the past (before episodes 1-6).

Episodes 10 and 11 (currently in development) take place on the island and will have some similarities to the game content, without being exactly the same.

Thanks Wilson Wilson for answering all my questions! I wish you and your team good luck for this game to be more successful and improved and hopefully it will reach Overwhelmingly Positive reviews someday.


Thanks marie.fasolt that's very helpful information there for me and anyone who's reading this!

Hello,
Any fixes to get this game running on steam deck ? Mine just crashes after a long loading screen for story mode.
Looks like a great game, just wanna be able to play haha

Just wanted to pop in and say this topic discussion was an interesting read from both the questions and the answers. It is really cool to see developers take the time to answer gamers' inquiries and respond to feedback.

Looking forward to seeing how this game progresses!

Hey, we are not officially supporting SteamDeck. We have not yet started optimizing, so it might run just fine on Steamdeck at a later point in time. But we can´t promise 🙈
