Once in a Lifetime was one of the 1st VNs I ever played in my life. It was already amazing and addictive, went for NSFW and stayed for history, (I am hoping to forget, so I can play again with same emotions as the 1st time)...
But, my friends, that wasn't the best from Caribds yet. I started playing Eternum since 0.1, expecting gold already, but I am finding Pure Diamonds here. I never saw anything close to this.
It sounds silly, but I got so immersed in this history, that sometimes I get myself thinking "I wish Eternum was real, how amazing this would be." Very detailed story, very rich... the feels in the exactly places, the comedy...
And this graphics? Animations? Man, THE SOUNDTRACK!! This game is pure perfection.
Thank you so much for this Caribdis, for lending your time for this gem.
Okay, hm… Sorry to go out of tune from all those (deserved) ultra-positive reviews, but after having played the whole game from the beginning once again, I've some small critics to express.
Don't get me wrong here: I'm still hooked with the game. Well, even more hooked since the last plot twist. The story is more than good, you did a sumptuous work with the musics and sound effects, and the characters are very lovely. Really, I love it. But, there a few –just a few, especially regarding the current length of the game– things that bothers me a bit, so I thought it may be positive if I write them down there. That's almost only detail points that can be solved by tweaking a line or two, or maybe a single picture. Once again, it doesn't mean your game isn't awesome, that's more related to me being a quibbler. Hope you don't mind!
(And to any people reading this without having played the game yet: I insist that's just minor points, don't let them stop you to play, the rest of the game really worth it. And beware if you chose to read, there's a few spoilers)
So, let's go, more or less chronologically:
– Just after the first encounter, while hacking Orion's phone, Nova says he doesn't have any Instagram account. We just saw him creating one a few nights before to like Penelope's pics, on the same phone. So Nova should have noticed, isn't it? (Orion even mention that later just after the photoshoot).
– During the Red Herring quest, some of the times we were supposed to see Mrs. Flink with the camera flash (especially the very first one), as the pictures are really dark and my screen usually at its lower level of brightness, I just didn't even see her shape, so it was weird to have Orion speaking about something that wasn't possible for me to notice. (I insist again on the first one: even with more screen brightness, I had to take a screenshot and enhance its light to see there was actually a silhouette on the outside).
– After playing again the first bed scene with Annie (Really love the music at this point, BTW <3), I thought her pink pyjama would be added to her gallery, but it look it wasn't the case. Is this deliberate or did you forget? (Nancy's white pyjama and Dalia's night outfit are added just after, so it looks like Annie's one is missing –even if we still have the red one).
– Not sure about this one, but the Praetorian sniper at Ogygia says Dione is the weakest of the three weapons of Atlas. The only thing Idriel explicitely said about that is that Calypso is the most powerful, without sorting the other two, but as she presents Dione in second and the strongest in third position, I guessed Hyas was the weakest, so this line surprised me a bit. (The fact that a bullet can miss its target surprised me too, but I checked back, and the exact quote from Idriel started with “they say”, so it was hinted as a rumor even from her, good job here!)
– Just a little bit of thing, maybe unimportant, but which makes me wonder. Calypso looks bound to Orion specifically (she later says to Alex at the mansion that he's the only one able to summon her). But despite he volunteered to open the box, he didn't even had the time to touch it before it opens, and it's Alex who later breaks the final chains. Maybe there should've been something to specifically explain why he is the chosen one, like a picture of him putting a finger on the box just when the blue lights comes up. Or maybe rather let the other two be able to summon her as well?
– There's a line more explicitly incoherent with Maat: she says that the Bastet Figurine makes impossible to wake up before 50 or 55 minutes. Avery was already sleeping when Nova arrived, so when Orion find them, he almost certainly sleeps for more than five minutes. Yet, we see Orion waking up while the other two are still sleeping (not for long), so even if he slept the minimal 50 minutes, Avery should have been doing so more than 55, and thus have been disconnected. You probably should tweak the line by saying the figurine makes you sleep some (unspecified) amount of time but makes you wake up in time to avoid auto disconnection.
(– During the wizard contest, with the polyjuice potion, Orion has the same “first-time-like” reaction for Penny than for Luna, although he already saw her bare breasts at this point. Not a problem at all, as it's not like he was used to them, but I wanted to make an exhaustive report, so…)
– All the Gems of Doom shown by Idriel on the first talk with her were dark. The one found on the Red Herring was, too, despite the blue light coming from the box. So it's a bit weird that the one from Garrington has another colour, and it's even weirder that this colour is already shown on Orion's slides while preparing the heist. I think it's pretty cool for them to have several colours, but Idriel should've shown that, and Orion shouldn't have known which colour was the one Garrington had.
(– The letter delivery while preparing the heist was a bit dark, I had to brighten up a bit my screen to clearly see the symbol on the envelope. Not as much as for Mrs. Flink, by far (and this time it was of course visible the symbol was here, just it wasn't really readable), but as it was the second (and for now, last) time I had to do it, I'd better let you know.)
(– As I'm a bit of an astronomy nerd, so I have to ask: is there a specific reason while, having nine persons to name (not counting the Expendables, of course, although they could have been named “asteroids” :-°), you choose to use Ganymede instead of the way more known Uranus?)
– Astronomy nerd again: while stargazing with Alex, she says it's October 15th, and shortly after, she points out the Leo constellation just under Ursa Major, while Orion (the constellation, again) is visible on the picture, probably higher than on the horizon. Depends of course a bit on the latitude, but where I live, on mid-October, Orion doesn't start rising before midnight, and Leo, being the main spring constellation, is way closer to the sun and doesn't show up before about 4am, so neither of them should be visible at this time. And this comes just after she points out how the Eternum sky perfectly matches the real one, so…
Edit: just noticed this point also depends on the gap between legal and real time. Sorry, that was obvious -_- Don't know what would be the gap in Kredon, but the said constellations may show up one or two hours earlier. So maybe Orion would be visible close to the horizon at this point. But Leo surely isn't.
– To enter the party, Orion says he “sends” the money, which I don't think is an usual way to tell it for giving real dollars, so at the moment, as Judith said it was possible too, I guessed he payed in eternals. Which could be cool, but then I remembered that when hiring Noah and Raul at the Yoga class, they talked about giving the money to them at the next connection, which hinted it wasn't possible to do it outside the game, and thus makes strange the party hostess allows to pay later.
– I'm a bit disappointed about Orion just answering by “I don't know” when Regina starts saying that all Instagram girls including Penny are superficial and only caring about their look, as he perfectly know she at least isn't like that at all. (I at least hope there's still something to do about this yearbook.)
BTW, I also checked your Patreon page, and the post with the image showing your current progress is now really deep and thus hard to find (I don't see it pinned on the top of the page, probably because I don't have a Patreon account, or maybe I checked at the wrong place?) so it doesn't help to see how much work you still have to do 'til the next chapter.
…and, that's all! As said before, that's really a few points, regarding the size and the general awesomeness of the game. But as said before too, I'm a quibbler, so I hope it won't bother you to check them and tell me if you agree or not. And, to finish, please allow me to also add some wishes for the future releases :-)
Already said that on my previous comment, but it would be cool to see some more diversity in background and supportive characters. There's already some, but you still could add some more!
As I already said before too, I'm a huge fan of Eva and I hope we'll see her again. I think she would be the perfect optional character, the one you could totally miss while playing but that rocks the team and gives cool secondary quests if you do find her, like for instance Yuffie in FF7.
And, last but not least… please let us see how Annie is a real badass too. I mean, we saw Dalia kick butts several times (including Orion's one). We had Alex and Nova against the Praetorians, and Nova also had the quick but intense session at the party. We had Luna and even Penny during the tournament. And Nancy with all the empress stuff (the scene with the previous emperor makes me guess she took a bat at her work because it was safer than her bare hands to the Ulysses guy). I don't even mention Calypso (I especially liked the final lines on Ogygia).
But for Annie… we guessed on the first session on Ion that she has the same potential, but it was never clearly shown: there was no fight on that session, and she was mainly scared on the Red Herring quest and with the aliens on Andromeda (which isn't bad at all, let's be clear, it gives her depth). And during the heist, she had a pretty important role, but we just saw her opening the final box. So, please, the next time, let us watch her be a total badass and kick some butts too. She deserves it.
That's all for me. Keep telling Caribdis how his game is awesome, folks, you're better at this than me and he deserves it a lot too <3
I didn't add Annie's pajamas because they're almost identical to the red one, and I used Ganymede because I thought Calypso's nature was fitting. She's also... different.
Except that Ganymede is Luna's nickname, not Calypso's :-þ You named her Gaia, which was a fun choice, since that's the only non-human who has the earth's name.
Thanks for your answer and you're welcome :) I'll let you know if I find something else. Can't wait to play the next update!
Alright, it might be the obviously cheesy and honestly fucked up name I've picked on here. It might be the 8th skinny bitch this evening, but I've been playin this game whenever I got the chance for the better half of 24 hours. I'm not that far in, sort of end of second "episode", but damn, rarely have I seen something that hooked me like this. I've got official work at a ministry of "importance" in like 7 hours, yet I will be making myself at least two more skinny bitches and maybe taste some old ass whiskey, all while playing a game that honestly, is up there with "DIK" which is nothing short of an accomplishment. If you're thinking about playing this, yes, yes, just do it, get through the first 30 minutes to an hour gameplay like anything, and watch yourself get gobbled up like some degenerate, it's great, play it, now. Sincerely yours - maybe the worst picked name ever :)
I don't make comments myself but THIS This is well deserving of one This Novel has it all I can't remove myself from the chair while playing... The humor always gets me to laugh until I cry The NSFW scenes are great but it's not the only reward for playing
I normally only lurk and don't comment or give reviews but jeez...this game was incredible. I was a little hesitant at first because I prefer 2d H-games but figured I'd give this a shot, and man am I glad I did. You had me immediately with Mikaela of the Boreal Valley. First time I ever full belly laughed playing a lewd game, and the humor is a constant without being tiresome or just gag humor. Luna, Mr. Hernandez , and ChopChop are by far my favorite characters for this reason alone! The characters are all well written and have independent personalities other than wanting the MCs porksword, which really brings the game to life. The NSFW scenes are well done, and the models are terrific! Best part of all is that the overarching mystery/intrigue of the story was good enough to where I blasted through what is about 18+ hours of gameplay in two days. Highly recommend and I cannot wait for the next update!
One of THE coolest games i have played if not the best, belivable characters great story and i ABSOLUTLY LOVE THE REFERENCES, i can see Ready player one was an inspiration, Some of the scenes are touching ,and the part at the burn mansion was fkng scary, the part where you watch interstelar with annie was a great moment, and all the characters seem full of emotion and personality, great writing, absolute champ!!!
Hi Cardibris. I love this game. I have a few questions regarding the development
1, Do you make the models yourself? (characters, world, etc.)
2. Are you a solo developer?
3. How much of your time do you spend on creating Eternum?
4. What are your inspirations when you make the game?
5. Do you plan on making a series? As in making multiple games set in the same world?
I have loads of different questions, but these are probably the most important ones I have right now. So if you would answer them it would be amazing. Thanks in advance.
Holy shit. I downloaded this a few days ago and I've been playing it every spare moment I've had. It's amazing. The animation is superb, the writing is fantastic, and the visuals are beautiful. And the girls... Wow. Gotta say at the moment Nancy is my favourite, Nova in close second place. I wasn't expecting to like anything like this so much (hence this account name) but I had to gush.
Anyway, thank you Caribdis. Incredible work. Anything else I play in this genre is going to have to beat Eternum now.
And also sorry in advance for probably bad grammar and punctuation.
Ever since version 1, I have felt like eternum is going to end up being like a different universe and the servers are worlds. That's why they keep talking about how real it is and how nobody has ever seen the founder outside of Eternum, and how Calypso talks a lot about thousands of years of history of her people and why would the devs of a game put lore into something that was not supposed to be found and I'm not sure if I am just sleep deprived from replaying Oialt and Eternum, but there should be a Oialt world.
After typing that out, I feel crazy but I am going to post it anyways, sorry for watching your time.
This is one of the best ones I have played. The story was interesting and there were some hard choices I had to make. Looking forward to the next updates!
Hi Carinbdis! thank you for making this wonderful game, there are so many things great about it from the humour, the story almost all of it.
The story was so captivating i literally stayed up at 7 am just playing it. I'm glad this was my first NSFW game and i cant wait for the next parts to come out!
Also, thank you for making this a free and easy to experience game. Thank you for making this masterpiece and I hope you continue to make more games and best of luck to you!
I will be waiting for the next parts :] keep it up!
Every minute was fun to play, it was really a great time.
The story, the animation, the humour, it was great.
Eternum is really one of the few games where I'm almost more excited about the story and character development than the NSFW scenes (which are of course also a 10/10 ;) ).
I wouldn't even be surprised if there would be a Blue Lobster meme in the next update (please...)
Incredible game, great artwork, and great 18+ scenes but this is the first time Ive played an AVN with pure enjoyment for the story. Can't wait to see what happens in 0.6!!!!
Hi Caribdis, I recently updated my 0.4 version to 0.5 version on my android phone. Since then none of the saves are loading anymore. I am far in the VN and I don't want to restart from the very beginning.
Please could you help? I am loving the game so far.
That is strange considering this is a Samsung phone.. their OS is pretty well configured. I have upgraded smoothly so far from the beginning versions.. only to get stuck here.
So, I downloaded 0.5 on my phone, but it keeps crashing when the main screen pops up. I'm pretty sure it's because my phone sucks, but I'm still sad for that. I really wanted to try the new version.
Sometimes playing this i forgot for what reason iam playing and i just enjoy the story, i readed player one and this is the best related story i ever seen. Come for +18 content and left with the first development game i'll follow, and soon help with patreon, congrats and Thank You!
0.4 was already great. 0.5 made me create an account just to comment on here. This is by far the most enjoyable AVN I have ever played. I originally came to AVNs just for the scenes. This is the first one that genuinely got me hooked on the story. Not only that but even the scenes are also the best I've ever seen. The animations and camera movements are so clean and fluid. They have a lot more going on than just the typical repetetive animations which you see in most of the other AVNs. Everything from writing to sound design is really in a league of it's own. I'll be waiting patiently on the next releases.
I played once in a lifetime and really enjoyed it so decided to try Eternum and man have you absolutely knocked this one out of the park so far. I'n most AVN style games I'm turning the sounds and in particular the music down because its at best distracting but this is the first game that I was actually turning up the Music. Keep up the great work Caribdis you have a fan for life. (also props for the correct multicultural mythological references)
Absolutely. I know content creators catch grief when especially when it comes to the speed of releases. Just wanted you to know how much your work is appreciated.
Is this version compatible with 0.4 saves? My game crashes when I try to load a 0.4 save.

I'm having troubles playing the game in mobile because every time i do so it just crashes and brings me back to my home screen. This wasn't an issue in the previous version but I would like some help
I gotta say I’m new to Adult novels the first one I was into was fresh women. Then I decided to download like 30 more. But the funny thing was that this somehow was the first 1 I played out of the 30 just by luck I guess. And I don’t expect anything else to top this. I don’t even want to bother playing something else, hell I even put my name as Alex’s husband. way to go dude. I don’t even have social media accounts but you forced me to make this account just to say THANK YOU ;p. Looking forward to the great content.
Also is there any way I can have real life pictures of Alex in my house. Like the picture magnets they hang on the wall. I just wanna have her on top of my bed so I can fantasize about her every night. I friggin love ❤️ this game.
I like the game you played very much, but I can't speak English myself. I'm considering whether to learn English. What you see now is processed by the translator, which may seem strange.
I can't believe how hyped I got thinking "there's no way she'll know who I picked" and she guessed it right after the first question. Genuine pain. My face matched the MC. Read like a book.
Love the story so far. Even if this was SFW, the story would still be crazy good. Definitely going to be looking out for updates.

Thank you very much <33
Finally! The wait is over!! 0.5 is here!!! I will never ever got bored playing this kind of game!! Super duper awesome!!

But for Annie… we guessed on the first session on Ion that she has the same potential, but it was never clearly shown: there was no fight on that session, and she was mainly scared on the Red Herring quest and with the aliens on Andromeda (which isn't bad at all, let's be clear, it gives her depth). And during the heist, she had a pretty important role, but we just saw her opening the final box. So, please, the next time, let us watch her be a total badass and kick some butts too. She deserves it.
That's all for me. Keep telling Caribdis how his game is awesome, folks, you're better at this than me and he deserves it a lot too <3
Those were really good point, I'll look into it!
Thank you very much!
I didn't add Annie's pajamas because they're almost identical to the red one, and I used Ganymede because I thought Calypso's nature was fitting. She's also... different.
Except that Ganymede is Luna's nickname, not Calypso's :-þ You named her Gaia, which was a fun choice, since that's the only non-human who has the earth's name.
Thanks for your answer and you're welcome :) I'll let you know if I find something else. Can't wait to play the next update!
Oh, true, I mixed them up sorry xD
Alright, it might be the obviously cheesy and honestly fucked up name I've picked on here. It might be the 8th skinny bitch this evening, but I've been playin this game whenever I got the chance for the better half of 24 hours. I'm not that far in, sort of end of second "episode", but damn, rarely have I seen something that hooked me like this. I've got official work at a ministry of "importance" in like 7 hours, yet I will be making myself at least two more skinny bitches and maybe taste some old ass whiskey, all while playing a game that honestly, is up there with "DIK" which is nothing short of an accomplishment. If you're thinking about playing this, yes, yes, just do it, get through the first 30 minutes to an hour gameplay like anything, and watch yourself get gobbled up like some degenerate, it's great, play it, now. Sincerely yours - maybe the worst picked name ever :)
Thank you <3
I don't make comments myself but THIS This is well deserving of one This Novel has it all I can't remove myself from the chair while playing... The humor always gets me to laugh until I cry The NSFW scenes are great but it's not the only reward for playing
Thank you!
Left me emotionally attached 10/10
this is beyond doubt one if not my favorite NSFW visual novel games already flew through the first five now onto six wonder when that will come out
I normally only lurk and don't comment or give reviews but jeez...this game was incredible. I was a little hesitant at first because I prefer 2d H-games but figured I'd give this a shot, and man am I glad I did. You had me immediately with Mikaela of the Boreal Valley. First time I ever full belly laughed playing a lewd game, and the humor is a constant without being tiresome or just gag humor. Luna, Mr. Hernandez , and ChopChop are by far my favorite characters for this reason alone! The characters are all well written and have independent personalities other than wanting the MCs porksword, which really brings the game to life. The NSFW scenes are well done, and the models are terrific! Best part of all is that the overarching mystery/intrigue of the story was good enough to where I blasted through what is about 18+ hours of gameplay in two days. Highly recommend and I cannot wait for the next update!
TLDR: Play the game its great and worth the time. Easily in my top 3 NSFW games.
Thank you so much 💗
One of THE coolest games i have played if not the best, belivable characters great story and i ABSOLUTLY LOVE THE REFERENCES, i can see Ready player one was an inspiration, Some of the scenes are touching ,and the part at the burn mansion was fkng scary, the part where you watch interstelar with annie was a great moment, and all the characters seem full of emotion and personality, great writing, absolute champ!!!
Thank you! Glad you liked it
I love eternum with all my heart, so far 0.5 is incredible Im just wondering how many people you guys have on your team and where you're from.
Hi Cardibris. I love this game. I have a few questions regarding the development
1, Do you make the models yourself? (characters, world, etc.)
2. Are you a solo developer?
3. How much of your time do you spend on creating Eternum?
4. What are your inspirations when you make the game?
5. Do you plan on making a series? As in making multiple games set in the same world?
I have loads of different questions, but these are probably the most important ones I have right now. So if you would answer them it would be amazing. Thanks in advance.
1. Most of them yes
2. Yes, but I have some people helping me with animations/dialogue editing etc
3. It's my full time job, so most of it haha
4. Idk, I'd say all the shows, animes and games I've seen mixed
5. I'm unsure about all of them being in the same world, but yeah I'll do multiple games!
Holy shit. I downloaded this a few days ago and I've been playing it every spare moment I've had. It's amazing. The animation is superb, the writing is fantastic, and the visuals are beautiful. And the girls... Wow. Gotta say at the moment Nancy is my favourite, Nova in close second place. I wasn't expecting to like anything like this so much (hence this account name) but I had to gush.
Anyway, thank you Caribdis. Incredible work. Anything else I play in this genre is going to have to beat Eternum now.
Glad you liked it!
Same i had to create an account just to coment on this mans game, what a masterpiece.
yo caribdis ur actually a madlad the art is amazing
btw how do i join the discord? whenever i try the link on ur page it makes me do a captcha over and over
https://discord.gg/caribdisgames
somehow doesnt let me join just stuck on captcha forever
Spoilers.
And also sorry in advance for probably bad grammar and punctuation.
Ever since version 1, I have felt like eternum is going to end up being like a different universe and the servers are worlds. That's why they keep talking about how real it is and how nobody has ever seen the founder outside of Eternum, and how Calypso talks a lot about thousands of years of history of her people and why would the devs of a game put lore into something that was not supposed to be found and I'm not sure if I am just sleep deprived from replaying Oialt and Eternum, but there should be a Oialt world.
After typing that out, I feel crazy but I am going to post it anyways, sorry for watching your time.
my theory is that the real world in the game is also a simulation.
will there be other languages in the future? Like Chinese?
This is one of the best ones I have played.
The story was interesting and there were some hard choices I had to make.
Looking forward to the next updates!
Thank you!
when will there be a sequel?
The game isn't even finished yet, its only version 0.5. So, there are more updates to come.
I almost don’t even care about the saucy parts anymore I eagerly await each new release to learn more of this extremely captivating story
Happy to hear that!
Amazing content sir, Absolutely top quality production.
the scene where nova and mc enter the shipyard to fight the other duo, i thought it was gonna be like the episode from Alice in borderland
and she totally ended it real quick instead.
I wonder if u seen alice in borderland in the past and perhaps u got inspired by it for that scene and has sth else in mind :/
Lmao I have, it would have been a way longer scene xD
same that was one of the best games in aib (and one of the most badass scenes in this game)
Hi Carinbdis! thank you for making this wonderful game, there are so many things great about it from the humour, the story almost all of it.
The story was so captivating i literally stayed up at 7 am just playing it. I'm glad this was my first NSFW game and i cant wait for the next parts to come out!
Also, thank you for making this a free and easy to experience game. Thank you for making this masterpiece and I hope you continue to make more games and best of luck to you!
I will be waiting for the next parts :] keep it up!
p.s please make more scenes with luna! she deserves it ! :D
I will! Thank you!
Carinbdis, well done!
you have outdone yourself with the update.
Every minute was fun to play, it was really a great time.
The story, the animation, the humour, it was great.
Eternum is really one of the few games where I'm almost more excited about the story and character development than the NSFW scenes (which are of course also a 10/10 ;) ).
I wouldn't even be surprised if there would be a Blue Lobster meme in the next update
(please...)
Please keep up the good work.
With best regards,
PAT01
Thanks PAT!
Incredible game, great artwork, and great 18+ scenes but this is the first time Ive played an AVN with pure enjoyment for the story. Can't wait to see what happens in 0.6!!!!
TYVM!
how can i play if it says its hosted on a incompatible third party website?
Downloading it from browser
i downloaded it browserbut dont know how to open and play it, just has all the files from it
nvm im stupid, thx
Hi Caribdis, I recently updated my 0.4 version to 0.5 version on my android phone. Since then none of the saves are loading anymore. I am far in the VN and I don't want to restart from the very beginning.
Please could you help? I am loving the game so far.
Regards
There's nothing I can do, Android does these kinds of things on some devices sometimes, sorry about it
That is strange considering this is a Samsung phone.. their OS is pretty well configured. I have upgraded smoothly so far from the beginning versions.. only to get stuck here.
So, I downloaded 0.5 on my phone, but it keeps crashing when the main screen pops up. I'm pretty sure it's because my phone sucks, but I'm still sad for that. I really wanted to try the new version.
Sometimes playing this i forgot for what reason iam playing and i just enjoy the story, i readed player one and this is the best related story i ever seen. Come for +18 content and left with the first development game i'll follow, and soon help with patreon, congrats and Thank You!
(sorry for any gramatical issues, not ENG native)
Thank you for your future support!!!
0.4 was already great. 0.5 made me create an account just to comment on here.
This is by far the most enjoyable AVN I have ever played. I originally came to AVNs just for the scenes. This is the first one that genuinely got me hooked on the story. Not only that but even the scenes are also the best I've ever seen. The animations and camera movements are so clean and fluid. They have a lot more going on than just the typical repetetive animations which you see in most of the other AVNs.
Everything from writing to sound design is really in a league of it's own.
I'll be waiting patiently on the next releases.
Thank you 💗💗💗
I played once in a lifetime and really enjoyed it so decided to try Eternum and man have you absolutely knocked this one out of the park so far. I'n most AVN style games I'm turning the sounds and in particular the music down because its at best distracting but this is the first game that I was actually turning up the Music. Keep up the great work Caribdis you have a fan for life. (also props for the correct multicultural mythological references)
Thank you <33
Absolutely. I know content creators catch grief when especially when it comes to the speed of releases. Just wanted you to know how much your work is appreciated.
I cant join the discord server it says link is expired
Is this version compatible with 0.4 saves? My game crashes when I try to load a 0.4 save.

I'm having troubles playing the game in mobile because every time i do so it just crashes and brings me back to my home screen. This wasn't an issue in the previous version but I would like some help
by the way im subscribing to your patreon! it really loved your work!
Thank you so much for supporting, Alex 🥰🥰
i swear to my life this could be a movie
I can't install please help😭😭
When I finished 0.4 I deleted the game for storage.is there any way to skip to 0.5 or sum
I gotta say I’m new to Adult novels the first one I was into was fresh women. Then I decided to download like 30 more. But the funny thing was that this somehow was the first 1 I played out of the 30 just by luck I guess. And I don’t expect anything else to top this. I don’t even want to bother playing something else, hell I even put my name as Alex’s husband. way to go dude. I don’t even have social media accounts but you forced me to make this account just to say THANK YOU ;p. Looking forward to the great content.
Also is there any way I can have real life pictures of Alex in my house. Like the picture magnets they hang on the wall. I just wanna have her on top of my bed so I can fantasize about her every night. I friggin love ❤️ this game.
Thank you so much 💗
Hello, I am a China player. Will there be a Chinese version of "Eternity" in the future?
I like the game you played very much, but I can't speak English myself. I'm considering whether to learn English. What you see now is processed by the translator, which may seem strange.
You can find one here

I can't believe how hyped I got thinking "there's no way she'll know who I picked" and she guessed it right after the first question. Genuine pain. My face matched the MC. Read like a book.
Love the story so far. Even if this was SFW, the story would still be crazy good. Definitely going to be looking out for updates.
Glad you liked it!
I don't even need the H- scene, thestory is enough for me
just finished .5 and im already hyped for .6, i cant wait until the next part comes out!! I love yout games bro, please notice me 🙏🙏🙏🔥
Thank you for playing!
