Honestly, I find your writing inspiring. This is the only Visual Novel I've ever read so I honestly don't know how well other ones from Japan or whatnot compare but I was shocked and impressed by the dialogue and how comedic and authentic it was at times—The way you utilized the medium to elevate certain story and character moments is amazing. I'm an amateur writer myself, but if you ever needed some free help I would love to contribute in some way to your project. Regardless, you probably don't need it anyway but I look forward to your future installments. Thanks for creating something so fun!
This game is too good. The quality of the animations, the transitions, the music, the dialogues, the mystery, the comedy, the sexual elements... is too damn high! Really, I made the terrible desition of trying the game yesterday at 10 PM, and ended up binge playing the whole thing (I already played Once in a Lifetime, so I should have known it was gonna be amazing). Seriously, I've played some other popular games on this platform and they have a boring narrative, typos, bugs, lazy transitions, lame attemps at making you laugh... and this game is just on a different level.
I just played this game, and my mind is blown! the plot and story are amazing, and the characters are great also. I didn't even want to play it for the porn because just around the start I thought it was already amazing. i wish I could see more but I don't have the money to support you right now sadly. but if I did, I would hope to give you it so you could speed up the progress. I can't wait for the full game to release! i also just wanted to know but why is Alex and dalias cards greyed out did i do something wrong?
Same thing happened on my first playthrough, and reading the Walkthrough is looks like you need to be more forward with Daliah, and play unreachable with Alex
I just played it again with the help of the guild and wow. just wow. there was a lot that I missed but I'm wondering how you do all of that, I'm not looking into making a game myself, but it takes someone very talented to do something like this, I can't wait to play the next updates when you make them. and I just wanted to ask will you be planning on making any anal scenes, or no? if you don't its fine because I'll still play and enjoy the game. but now I'm going to play your other game later tonight to see if that's half as good as this one. Edit: I just remembered this, but I got banned for some reason on the discord server and it didn't specify a reason I just got banned. idk if it was something I said to someone or if someone was abusing their permissions, the only reason I want back is to know when and what the updates are so I can experience this game even more. I'm not asking you to unban me but if you were going to plan on doing that then my username is elimdz2. if you don't then could you contact a mod to do it? I know you are working hard to make this game and also have a personal life, but I was just asking if you could take a moment to unban me.
ok thank you i would appreciate it very much and if i did get banned for some reason i would like to know if i could, i would like to make a appeal or whatever they call it so i could get unbanned. i just want to get regular updates without having to go on websites and check regularly when i can just get a notification on discord. you have a amazing game and i would love to support it by playing the game. if you don't want to do any of the discord work then could you please put me in contact with a mod. anyways i hope you have a great day and love the game, can't wait to play the next update.
Hi there! I love your works and I am looking forward for upcoming content from you, also I have one question, I am planning on making my own visual novel, how long is each "episode" (like an each update), in terms of word count? Your games are amazing and length of each update and each "section" of the game feels like a "sweet spot", not too short to leave the reader with the feeling of emptiness, and not too long to reader be overwhelmed by the amount of it. Thanks in advance.
I'm curious, will there be any references to the characters of OIAL? Judith was really exited to get Eternum, so will we ever see a further easter egg of that?
I gotta say, I need to see that soundtrack! Never found a VN with half the songs being recognizable from my own playlists, and some that I need to add!
Simply the best VN I've had in awhile, and I just got back into the swing of playing them after some time!
I've played MBIML and I saw Moon and Garrington, Let me guess you are close friend with Niichan? Both of you had the same art style but Your music sir is better, Both had a good story and I love both games. Hope you two will do more cameo characters. And I notice Luna and Aine looks Identical. Hoping more future updates and I'll keep supporting you sir.
You don't know how Happy I am, both of your games and Niichan made me cry. Hoping that Emma and Luna will meet in the future, I saw eternum in MBIML I was shock and surprise.🤣
he says less than a week for paid subscribers to his patreon or subscribestar and he'll post definitive release date for free players in less than a week
hi may i ask for a way to plead my ban from the discord server? i didnt know spoiling a scene was a bannable thing, so I would really like to rejoin the community as I really support you as a creator. I've been following your games ever since once in a lifetime was still in a development. I've learned from my mistakes so I'd really like to be able to support you again even further. @Caribdis
I Currently Don't have a way to know who or how to contact the moderators on the server, So I'd appreciate it if I can atleast get a user I can try reaching out to, thanks.
Been following your progress since once in a lifetime, and only just now realized I could comment here😭. Anyway, I just saw your sneakpeek and I'm really glad that you're putting so much effort and work to create a story that truly immerses me in your universe :D You have my thanks for an excellent tale, and I hope you a bright many years :)
this game is an absolute masterpiece. it has an amazing story, amazing characters and character development, and most importantly the choice is yours how you want the harem of your dreams to go. i played this right after i found out about it from playing the developer's other game once in a lifetime which i highly recommend as well, they both have so much love and care put into them; show the developer some love will you wait for v 0.6 to come out... so excited
25/10 I can't believe Cod thinks their game is worth $70. This was one of THE BEST visual novel I have ever played. I played my first one a week ago, this is my fourth, and Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuk when I hit the "Thanks for playing" I cried a little. You moi dr'ug are a saint! I will be following you on Patreon until I see the end! :) <3 thank you for the hours of great content, not just the emotion but the humor had me bellowing out loud at 3 am. Have a great Tuesday to everybody that see's this.
No no! Thank you! I am playing Once in a lifetime now. And I can't believe the massive amount of content you put into your work! You deserve praise! Keep doing what you're doing :) much love I am sending your way~
hi may i ask for a way to plead my ban from the discord server? i didnt know spoiling a scene was a bannable thing, so I would really like to rejoin the community as I really support you as a creator.
Hey I just noticed that the space station was from space engineers am I right caribdis or at least inspired by it I know that docking port when I see it
...just downloaded yesterday. And hand to Odin, I did not sleep a wink until it was done. I don't think I've been that invested in a story or character arcs in even some AAA titles. Now, I'm only upset I don't have the full release. Br-f**king-vo, so far. 15/10!
Honestly it might be just me but I'm a bit sad I finally caught up to the most recent release so I went to the college part with Penny and Nova i was surprised to see Charlotte there even more surprised the chose to ignore her to the extent they did I thought we'd finally get to cuck that chump Axel it seemed like the perfect time but nothing I still enjoyed it none the less but I'm a bit sad Charlotte got shafted as hard as she did.
Dude, I only have to say that both this and OiaLT are so much higher quality than a majority of AVNs when it comes to both story and visual quality. For that, I must thank you for letting your muse loose in these games you have made/are making. It's honestly fucking amazing, and I wish I had disposable income right now to support the development of these divine masterclasses of worldbuilding and character development.
What started as an attempt to a quick fap when I first downloaded the 0.2 version in 2021 has now become a staple in both my AVN and VN libraries (I also started and complete Once in a Lifetime in between versions, which is also incredible, but you have clearly progressed as a storyteller and artist).
This is legitimately one of the best story out there. Ton of comedy bits (Chang the Hilarious, Luna and Victor (dad) dark humour, Dalia's glutony), amazing characters' personality (Alex the rebel-ish, Annie's shiness and secret kinkiness, Nancy's boldness and affection), and so much will they, won't they (Penelope teasing MC, Luna and MC never going all the way, Nova and let's not talk about the Egyptian server ever again), and the whole Eternum lore, mysteries, artwork, etc. This is simply art, and lewdness apart, could very much compete with most anime out there!
Downloaded the 0.5 version a week ago and slowly progressing, and with 0.6 on it's way (a week-ish from now), I don't need any Netflix/Hulu subscription this summer, this is all the content I need! You have my Patreon subscription!
Great job Caribdis, please never stop making content!
I take back everything about the "will they wont they", that version had so much to offer that I was hoping for. Had I played 0.5 before writing this, everything would be amplified. What an amazing update, now I'm 400% on the edge of my seat for 0.6!
Downloaded the latest version last week, been playing in 30-60 mins spurts the past few days and no lag issue on my end - Have you tried looking at your Task Manager to identify bottleneck? Or maybe are you using your imbedded CPU's GPU which are usually not great at rendering 3D animations (e.g. Intel HD Graphic 500)
On a Win10 PC, go to Settings > System > Display > (all the way down) Graphics settings, then click Browse and select the Eternum.exe, and finally select "High performance". This window will also tell you if you have a base and a high card, if you have no choice then that's it.
Sorry if this does not solve the issue - hopefully v0.6 will help you or write to Caribdis with the version you are using and a brief summary of you settup (OS and OS version, graphic card and current driver version, which .exe you are using (Eternum vs Eternum-32)) and they might be of better help
Hey, bro, what makes me happy is that 0.6 is coming. However, ILLUSION company announced that it is about to close down, mixed with sadness and joy. I know you are using hs2 to model, and I would like to hear your opinion
Awesome awesome game my man, is my favorite at the moment can't wait for the next update. Btw Im looking to upgrade my pc (which is currently trash), what are the minimum requirements for the game to run smoothly on pc?
If delete older versions of the game, will I lose my saves from that version? For example if I delete 0.4 will I lose the saves I did when playing 0.4?
If only there was a way I could forget about this game for 3 years then suddenly remember it again. It's hard spending each and every day waiting for an update to arrive. But I shall persist.

Hi Caribdis, I just have one question. Do you write the story and all the dialogue by yourself?
I have an editor/proofreader, but yes I do :)
Honestly, I find your writing inspiring. This is the only Visual Novel I've ever read so I honestly don't know how well other ones from Japan or whatnot compare but I was shocked and impressed by the dialogue and how comedic and authentic it was at times—The way you utilized the medium to elevate certain story and character moments is amazing. I'm an amateur writer myself, but if you ever needed some free help I would love to contribute in some way to your project. Regardless, you probably don't need it anyway but I look forward to your future installments. Thanks for creating something so fun!
Thank you <3
Bro i came tantalos home and my game finished, is ter a problem, ?
No, it's just that that's the end of the game but Caribdis is making a update and said that the release date will be announced in about a week.
This game is too good. The quality of the animations, the transitions, the music, the dialogues, the mystery, the comedy, the sexual elements... is too damn high!
Really, I made the terrible desition of trying the game yesterday at 10 PM, and ended up binge playing the whole thing (I already played Once in a Lifetime, so I should have known it was gonna be amazing).
Seriously, I've played some other popular games on this platform and they have a boring narrative, typos, bugs, lazy transitions, lame attemps at making you laugh... and this game is just on a different level.
Glad you liked it! Thank you!
Ahm hi dev can I ask why your game is always crashing please replay
I just played this game, and my mind is blown! the plot and story are amazing, and the characters are great also. I didn't even want to play it for the porn because just around the start I thought it was already amazing. i wish I could see more but I don't have the money to support you right now sadly. but if I did, I would hope to give you it so you could speed up the progress. I can't wait for the full game to release! i also just wanted to know but why is Alex and dalias cards greyed out did i do something wrong?
Same thing happened on my first playthrough, and reading the Walkthrough is looks like you need to be more forward with Daliah, and play unreachable with Alex
thanks man ill make sure to do that next time but im going to go play his other game first before i try to go make another playthrough.
Thanks!
And yeah, you lost their paths and romances. Check out the walkthrough!
I just played it again with the help of the guild and wow. just wow. there was a lot that I missed but I'm wondering how you do all of that, I'm not looking into making a game myself, but it takes someone very talented to do something like this, I can't wait to play the next updates when you make them. and I just wanted to ask will you be planning on making any anal scenes, or no? if you don't its fine because I'll still play and enjoy the game. but now I'm going to play your other game later tonight to see if that's half as good as this one. Edit: I just remembered this, but I got banned for some reason on the discord server and it didn't specify a reason I just got banned. idk if it was something I said to someone or if someone was abusing their permissions, the only reason I want back is to know when and what the updates are so I can experience this game even more. I'm not asking you to unban me but if you were going to plan on doing that then my username is elimdz2. if you don't then could you contact a mod to do it? I know you are working hard to make this game and also have a personal life, but I was just asking if you could take a moment to unban me.
I'll tell the mods, but if they have any reason for the ban they probably won't, sorry
Yes, there will be anal scenes
ok thank you i would appreciate it very much and if i did get banned for some reason i would like to know if i could, i would like to make a appeal or whatever they call it so i could get unbanned. i just want to get regular updates without having to go on websites and check regularly when i can just get a notification on discord. you have a amazing game and i would love to support it by playing the game. if you don't want to do any of the discord work then could you please put me in contact with a mod. anyways i hope you have a great day and love the game, can't wait to play the next update.
Hi there! I love your works and I am looking forward for upcoming content from you, also I have one question, I am planning on making my own visual novel, how long is each "episode" (like an each update), in terms of word count? Your games are amazing and length of each update and each "section" of the game feels like a "sweet spot", not too short to leave the reader with the feeling of emptiness, and not too long to reader be overwhelmed by the amount of it. Thanks in advance.
Maybe around 50K words
I'm curious, will there be any references to the characters of OIAL? Judith was really exited to get Eternum, so will we ever see a further easter egg of that?
This is the best visual novel game I've ever played in my life! Thank you very much
Hi can I ask what device are you playing?
I gotta say, I need to see that soundtrack! Never found a VN with half the songs being recognizable from my own playlists, and some that I need to add!
Simply the best VN I've had in awhile, and I just got back into the swing of playing them after some time!
I've played MBIML and I saw Moon and Garrington, Let me guess you are close friend with Niichan? Both of you had the same art style but Your music sir is better, Both had a good story and I love both games. Hope you two will do more cameo characters. And I notice Luna and Aine looks Identical. Hoping more future updates and I'll keep supporting you sir.
Yeah we are :)
You don't know how Happy I am, both of your games and Niichan made me cry. Hoping that Emma and Luna will meet in the future, I saw eternum in MBIML I was shock and surprise.🤣
Annie isn't real, and now I am depressed. :(
What do you mean
Maybe he got a platonic relationship with the character
Man if that's the case, I feel bad for 'em. I did for my playthrough. She was everything that I wanted and more!
Dalia and Nova also can't smother me with their thighs, I feel you brother.
I know I'm being pushy but when is the 0.6 coming out?
he says less than a week for paid subscribers to his patreon or subscribestar and he'll post definitive release date for free players in less than a week
Thank you, this game i think is one of the best because of the sci-fi element to it, really top tier
Aug 1st caribdis announce the date
noice, I'm hyped!!
hi may i ask for a way to plead my ban from the discord server? i didnt know spoiling a scene was a bannable thing, so I would really like to rejoin the community as I really support you as a creator.

I don't know anything about that, ask the moderators on the discord server
I Currently Don't have a way to know who or how to contact the moderators on the server, So I'd appreciate it if I can atleast get a user I can try reaching out to, thanks.
I'd say tonymack21 man
hey does anyone know what the song is that plays on the first encounter with Eva i cant find it anywhere and its super good
Torii Wolf, No one knows but me
thank you, greatly appreciated!
Been following your progress since once in a lifetime, and only just now realized I could comment here😭.

I wonder if the heist in 0.4 was inspired by Persona 5.lol
this game is an absolute masterpiece. it has an amazing story, amazing characters and character development, and most importantly the choice is yours how you want the harem of your dreams to go. i played this right after i found out about it from playing the developer's other game once in a lifetime which i highly recommend as well, they both have so much love and care put into them; show the developer some love will you wait for v 0.6 to come out... so excited

THE BEST GAME EVERR!! but i wish they add some voice to the character to each on of the event.
wow idk what to say, eternum is a great game the story is amazing and the character development is crazy just wow.
Thanks!

Thank you so much for your support, Pauly! 😍
Glad you liked it!
you haven't finished 0.5 yet? you are in for some REAL treats!
I just did.... and WOW.
I take back everything about the "will they wont they", that version had so much to offer that I was hoping for. Had I played 0.5 before writing this, everything would be amplified. What an amazing update, now I'm 400% on the edge of my seat for 0.6!
the animations lag SO hard . unlike the other games i tried . what could be the problem?
Downloaded the latest version last week, been playing in 30-60 mins spurts the past few days and no lag issue on my end - Have you tried looking at your Task Manager to identify bottleneck? Or maybe are you using your imbedded CPU's GPU which are usually not great at rendering 3D animations (e.g. Intel HD Graphic 500)

You never needed cucks fetishes to get the attention of the players awesome game in every sense.
Hey, bro, what makes me happy is that 0.6 is coming. However, ILLUSION company announced that it is about to close down, mixed with sadness and joy. I know you are using hs2 to model, and I would like to hear your opinion
Well, I guess we'll never see hs3, it is what it is
Add Turkish language please🥺
When 0.6 release
Look at Patreon (and support Caribdis), latest post mentioned around July 24
By the end of this month on my Patreon and Subscribestar
Omg bro Micaela really looks like an Elden Ring boss lol
How do I unlock luna's scene?
Check out the downloadable walkthrough!
Awesome awesome game my man, is my favorite at the moment can't wait for the next update. Btw Im looking to upgrade my pc (which is currently trash), what are the minimum requirements for the game to run smoothly on pc?
I honestly don't know, but I don't think you need high specs to run it smoothly, so no worries!
If delete older versions of the game, will I lose my saves from that version? For example if I delete 0.4 will I lose the saves I did when playing 0.4?
On PC? No, you won't!
Started playing this game an hour ago. My first thought about it is that the comedy aspect is done really well. A job well done
Thanks!
If only there was a way I could forget about this game for 3 years then suddenly remember it again. It's hard spending each and every day waiting for an update to arrive. But I shall persist.
Stay strong
0.6 almost here :D
