#english otome games

[englishotomegames]

Hi there!

I just wanted to let everyone know I've created a Ko-fi for this website, englishotomegames.net.

I've been running English Otome Games for 13 years now, and strive to create and maintain a website where otome and joseimuke / female oriented games are easily accessible. Money from Ko-fi will cover domain name expenses, and allow me the time to research and add more games, as well as add features and functionality to the site.

There's absolutely no pressure to donate; please only do so if you want to and are able. Thank you for your continued support over all these years! Looking forward to many more.

WSC - Episode One Release

Hi everyone! This release was supposed to be a little later than it is coming but a couple of Real Life events have pushed it up by about a week and a half.

Episode 1 of When Stars Collide is officially released. 🥳🥳🥳

DO NOT LOAD OLD SAVES.

I cannot stress this enough.

Old saves will break. Even if they show up. Even if you can technically load them without initially crashing the game, the saves are broken. They will eventually crash the game. There is too much new content that did not exist in the prototype for those saves to function. 

*Everything is different*

Please be sure that the correct version (1.4.3) is loading for you.  You can find this info in the lower right corner of the main menu. Some people reported that launching the game would launch the snapshot even if they had the update (this seems to be some sort of weird Itch quirk. )

The new title screen looks like this:

If this is not what your title screen looks like, you are not in the correct version of the game.

What's new?

Everything. Tons of features and additions.

New backgrounds. Flowcharts, new glossary, music room, achievements, recap screen, etc, etc, etc.

About 50,000 words of new content (combined with the previous prologue and chapter one)

If you want a full breakdown of the new content, you can click below. A lot of it is stuff that has been mentioned in updates here before.

New And Shiny Stuff (™)

Total Word count of Episode One: 83,000 words (not including the bonus scenes)

What isn't in the game right now is any content for future chapters. Future variables, future chapters, flowcharts, future CGs, etc. None of that is in the game files. 👀 Just so you know. LoL

When is the next episode coming?

Not for a few months. Please remember, though, the next episode is fully written and edited. I am already working on coding it and doing the art.

But it's a lot. 

My aim is to release a new episode every 3-4 months. But I don't know yet what the schedule will look like. This gap between Episode 1 and Episode 2 is what will show me how long to expect to take to get each episode ready without killing my art hand.

Just like before, the episode will go through a process of Patreon Beta → Patreon Early Access → Public release.

The next episode will go through a longer period of early access than this one did though. This one ended up being a bit shorter due to various reasons.

And that is it. The episode is out with all sorts of new features and things to see.

Introduction ☆(≧∀≦*)ﾉ

Hiihiiiii I'm Ellie! This account is dedicated solely to otome games, something I've spent over 5 years being obsessed with! I have a large collection of 30+ games on both the Nintendo Switch and my PC and I'm actively involved in a lot of non-localized otome fandoms as well, such as Diabolik Lovers, Kamigami no Asobi, Brother's Conflict, Uta no Prince-sama, etc!

I made this blog mostly because I want to write reviews and thoughts about the otomes I play, since I've discovered Twitter's text limit makes it a little hard to get my feelings across ( Ĭ ^ Ĭ )

I also just wanna talk about otome with more people on more platforms! This is something I'm super passionate about and I don't see my love for otome dying down anytime soon. I'm passionate about different otome artists, voice actors, writers, just everything! I also want to discover more indie otome games if I can, considering most of my collection only includes mainstream big-companies like Otomate.

Feel free to ask me anything or DM me if you wanna talk!! My twitter is @Impeys_Princess and I'm VERY active there! ♡〜٩(^▿^)۶〜♡

Hallo everyone!  Time for the tumblr update!

Summary:

Revising chapter 10

New BG art

New CG art

Writing:

Okay. So I am neeeeearly done with Chapter 10. I'm about 85% of the way through it and currently I have just Yren's content left to revise for this chapter.

As I mentioned last time, I am now embroiled in an epic battle with Chapter 10! 

In my last update, this chapter was 73k words and I said I expected it to be over 80k. I don't know why I said that because the final word count, from the start, was always going to be over 90k....

Anyway, it's 88k right now and I'm expecting it to be around 93k when Yren's content is revised and pulled into alignment with the others in terms of length.

So I'm very close to completing it and I hope maaaaybe by the end of tomorrow?

Art:

Received a new BG since last time. BGs are around 70% complete now.

I also ended up doing work on a CG for chapter 2. Just trying to get a head start on any outstanding art I need for that chapter...

I went through the chapter and noted where I am pretty sure I'll be placing CGs...

It's a little tricky with early chapters because the characters aren't necessarily doing anything or having interesting interactions (I mean, the conversations themselves are interesting but they're not like...dramatic interactions I guess?) Since this is very much an establishing chapter, there are no dramatic plot moments, nor are there any romance or relationship moments. Characters are having conversations and learning about each other.

The characters sit and talk, walk and talk, stand and talk...

When the conversations are like "This is my homeworld, this is how I grew up, this is when I joined the ship, this is what I was doing before you found me sleeping in a box...."

Those are interesting conversations but not necessarily interesting to illustrate.

Even if I could get creative with a CG for one character, if I can't do it for everyone then I have to consider if it'll feel like one character got special treatment... So there's a lot of balancing and planning...

I'm still putting CGs in but it's possible that, in chapter two, they'll be more "Pretty art" than "Interesting illustration moments" LoL.

Upcoming Weeks:

So I'm hoping to get Yren's Ch10 revision done today or tomorrow. Probably tomorrow. Once that is done I have to proofread for typos (which is partially done but needs a few more checks to clean up some other stuff).

Then I will format the chapter into renpy....and...

After that I'll be revising Asher and Daaz's end game sequences. I think I should be able to get all of that done by my next update. 

And after that, we shall see.

Still a ways to go before the writing is done but the light at the end of the tunnel is a bit brighter these days. So...looking forward to being done with the last of the hulking and difficult chapters. 

Anyway, that is all for now. See you next time!

marked by desire

sylus x fem!reader

warning: soft smut. minors dni!

you barely have time to react before sylus pins you against the wall, his hands firm on your hips, holding you in place. his red eyes bore into yours, dark with an intensity that makes your breath hitch. the air between you is thick with tension, his body pressed close enough that you can feel the heat radiating from him.

“you think you can walk around like that and not expect a reaction?” his voice is low, a dangerous edge to it that sends a shiver down your spine. his fingers dig into your skin, possessive, as if he’s afraid you might slip away.

“i wasn’t—” you start, but he cuts you off with a growl, his lips crashing against yours in a kiss that’s all hunger and need. it’s rough, demanding, his teeth grazing your lower lip as he pulls back just enough to speak.

“you’re mine,” sylus mutters against your mouth, his breath hot and heavy. “i’m not fond of dividing my attention.”

the words send a jolt of desire through you, his possessiveness stirring something deep within. you can feel his need for control in the way he holds you, the way his hands roam over your body, claiming every inch of you as his own.

his lips trail down your neck, biting and sucking at the sensitive skin, marking you as his. you gasp, your hands clutching at his shirt as he moves lower, the sensation of his mouth on your skin making your knees weak.

sylus doesn’t stop there. his hands slide up your torso, slipping under your top to cup your breasts, his touch firm and possessive. “these are mine too,” he growls, his eyes dark with desire as he pushes the fabric up, exposing your bare skin to his hungry gaze.

before you can respond, sylus dips his head, capturing one of your nipples in his mouth. the sensation is electric, his tongue flicking over the sensitive bud before he starts to suck, his lips and teeth working in tandem to draw out the most delicious sounds from you. you moan, your back arching into him as he lavishes attention on your breast, his free hand kneading the other, his touch rough and demanding.

“you taste so good, kitten.” sylus murmurs against your skin, his voice filled with a dark satisfaction. he switches to the other breast, giving it the same attention, licking and sucking until you’re trembling in his arms, your breaths coming in short, desperate gasps.

every kiss, every bite, every flick of his tongue feels like a brand, marking you as his in a way that goes beyond just words. the intensity of it all is overwhelming, your body reacting to his every touch as if you were made for him, your breasts aching for more of his attention.

sylus is relentless, his mouth moving between your breasts, leaving a trail of marks that bloom under his lips, a reminder of just how thoroughly he’s claimed you. “no one else gets to see you like this,” he growls, his voice rough with possessive desire. “no one else gets to touch you.”

you can only nod, your words lost to the pleasure coursing through your body. his dominance, his obsession with you, fuels your own desire, making you want to give him everything he demands and more.

you squirm, your hands clutching at his shirt as he moves lower, the sensation of his mouth on your skin making your knees weak.

“do you understand?” sylus demands, his voice rough as his hand slides up your thigh, pushing your skirt higher. “you’re mine.”

“y-yes,” you breathe, the word coming out as a whimper as his hand reaches the apex of your thighs, fingers brushing against you through your panties.

sylus smirks at your response, his eyes filled with a dark satisfaction as he presses his fingers against you, teasing. “good,” he murmurs, his lips finding yours again in a kiss that’s just as possessive as before. his touch grows firmer, more insistent, as he rubs you through the thin fabric, drawing out moans that he swallows with every kiss.

your mind is a haze of pleasure, the feeling of sylus’s hands on you, his lips against yours, overwhelming all your senses. the world outside fades away, leaving just the two of you, tangled in each other, lost in the intensity of the moment.

when he finally slips his hand beneath your panties, touching your bare skin, you can’t hold back the gasp that escapes you. sylus’s eyes darken further, and he presses closer, his voice a rough whisper against your ear. “i want to hear you,” he commands, his fingers working you with a skill that leaves you trembling.

you obey, your moans filling the room as he drives you closer and closer to the edge. sylus’s mouth is everywhere, his hands relentless as he takes you apart, piece by piece, until there’s nothing left but the pleasure he gives you.

finally, when you’re on the verge of begging for him, sylus pulls back, his eyes dark with lust as he takes in the sight of you, your chest rising and falling with every ragged breath, your skin marked with his love bites. “perfect,” he murmurs, his hands sliding down your body to your thighs, lifting you up effortlessly as he presses you harder against the wall.

you wrap your legs around his waist, feeling the hard length of him pressing against you, and a fresh wave of desire floods through you. sylus grins at your reaction, his hands gripping your hips as he presses a teasing kiss to your lips, before trailing his mouth down your neck, sucking on the spot that makes you whimper.

“remember this,” sylus says, his voice dark and commanding. “you belong to me.”

and with that, he captures your lips again, pulling you into a kiss that’s both a promise and a claim, sealing the words he’s just spoken. his hands roam your body, gripping your hips as he starts to rock against you, teasing you with the promise of what’s to come. every touch, every kiss is laced with his possessive need for you, a need that you’re more than willing to satisfy.

❝ Not all mysteries... ❞  

Some mysteries, beyond man, have no logic, have no fate. In the face of such, keep your wits close, but do not trust them.  Trust not yourself, nor your senses. Your time, nor your wit.

For where time has stopped, but its flow has no end.  For when passion calls, but hate runs deep.

Heed this warning, and do not wait.  For laws of nature and laws of man.  Have no logic, and have no weight."

❝ ...can be explained by the logic of man. ❞
