Amazing game!! I love the characters, the animations, the sto- I love it all!!
I have a question though. I am currently working in my first Visual Novel. I am able to add 2d animated characters and such, but I am unaware and/or lack the knowledge on adding in my 3d models. I have tried using the same method I used with the 2d models.. But.. I get one error after another and I have attempted to fix these errors.. I just don't know where I'm going wrong..
EDIT: Okay, I didn't explain paths: A path is a girl's romance side story with you and bad choices can cause you to lose paths. The UI indicates a lost path by greying out that character's portrait, like in your case. To troubleshoot where you went wrong, I recommend the walkthrough I linked below.
Here's a walkthrough, third download option, look for Luna's color (black).
Every time you get a heart you did something right in a dialogue with a girl. If you didn't get a heart pulsating in the top corner of the screen just go backwards. Or go to a save before you picked one of the dialog options. Rinse and repeat you are now on every single girls path.
The game introduces this when you first install the game. If you didn't skip you would know this. This is a basic element that every single dating / jrpg / novel dating game like this has.
It's not that easy. A lot of decisions do work that way, yes: You pick an option and you get an affection point if you made the right choice. But there's also a bunch of choices that are more nouanced: Maybe you'll get the affection point later or maybe the game won't even show you the affection point gain. Maybe multiple choices yield affection points, but one yields more than the other.
Also, some people prefer to play the game in one go without having to rewind back and forth to experiment with different choices. That's what walkthrough mods are for. And for him it's already too late, he already lost a path. So I pointed him to a document that helps him understand what went wrong.
There is zero upside to losing any of their paths. In some games, maybe that's a choice, but in this one, if the Heist (or y'know, playing Once in a Lifetime) didn't telegraph it for you, dunno what to say. The girls make each other better, and the farther in, the better they do together. Keep them all, always.
man, no rush at all, just voicing MY concern. WHEN IS .8 coming!!! soon i will be joining the military and wont be able to play this game again. my time is ticking lmao
Yeah I'm pretty sure he'll forget this.. and he'll see the world differently... it's like, he's gonna be a lot realistic there... Whatever happens... I wish him luck.
A game with free roaming featuring all the characters here is all i want. and i hope cari makes them respond like those character AI apps so that we can literally talk to them forever even if the game ends cuz these waifu's are just the best
I cannot download this game through the itch.io app, only the Chinese version is downloadable. But since the English version is downloadable through 3rd parties it cannot be downloaded from itch.io app.
Hope Caribdis gets to finish this. I believe you have great story telling ability. This could literally be a great show series! Hope all is going good in life so you may finish ANOTHER masterpiece! IF you haven't played do so!
The latest animations are very impressive when compared to the earlier ones—not that the early ones were bad, but the newest ones are much more dynamic. I also appreciate the ability to change the camera angle.
Only thing that sticks out like a sore thumb seems to be the lengths gone to in order for MC's face not to be shown lol.
I played both games of Cardibis and I really enjoyed it. I love the personality of the characters he/she created. I wish I am rich enough because I definitely will support the games.
Orion referred to him as "Ex-President Michael Stabb" in his intro monologue tho. Also according to a post Cari made on Discord Mike served 2 full terms as President, so he's either retired or have gone back to his world-hopping/vigilante ways.
Man, I've played both of Caribdis's games and it's hell'a good... I've been checking here for the updates... Eternum is the best 18+ VN that can be played...
It's being released this December (as always, there will be a few weeks of early release on Patreon and Subscribestar, after that, it'll be available for free here)
I recently played (and loved) Once in a Lifetime, their previous game. It was extremely intricate, with great design and near perfect writing. When i learned that they were working on another game, I thought to myself they were only developping a "simple" AVN.
The only thing is, this is not just an AVN. This is a masterclass in writing, character developpement, complete with great humour, refreshing scenes, and the scenario to go with it. The CGI was (imo) the worse thing about OiAL, but every scene in Eternum managed to impress me.
The scenario, at first, seems simple. Imagine Ready Player One if it was a good movie. Good. Put that on steroids. No kidding. You could just play this game for the lore, as it is so deep, managing to strike deep themes while staying unserious, and always keeping you on your toes. Of course, it's an AVN, so the world-building concerning the girls is kinda stereotypical (you're a boy, in school, and find yourself with a motherly figure, """"sisters"""", a childhood female friend, and random horny girls). But the character developpement is incredibly well-done, and Caribdis puts some nice twist on the classic formula.
This is not an AVN. This is not a game. It is a passion project, infused with Caribdis' personality, humour, character, and always maintains the perfect pacing. On more occasions than I would like to admit, I found myself giggling, laughing out loud, nearly jumpscared, touched by some insignificant detail, or one one occasion, on the verge of tears. Some scenes really hit you in the gut, and its a feeling i had never experienced in a bgame, rarely while watching a movie.
No part of this feels rushed, nothing feels slow. Everything down to the last, minute detail, reference, even the music and sound effects feel heavily worked on. The player has time to familiarize himself with the story, the gimmicks, the world-building and, of course, the girls. You WILL find yourself attached to the MC and the girls.
Caribdis, please, for the love of god, get yourself hired in a AAA studio as a creative director and release a mainstream game. I feel like this medium (video game developpement) was made for you. I would happily spend 50$ on a game you made.
OiAL was my first AVN ever, this is one of the few i ever played, and i've loved every part of it. I am honestly thinking about doing a few more playthroughs, not even for the scenes, just for the writing.
The game is still in developpement, but for the time being, it scores an 19.3/20 on my part.
I say this with the highest regards : thank you Caribdis.
And if you haven't played the game, please, play it.
When i extract the files, i can't launch the game did i do somthnig wrong? or it have more condition to run the game? or it simply i didn't know how to properly launch the game. anyone can point this out for me
Man, I'm getting sick of Calypso's "high and mighty"-act. I wish there was a "dark" route in this game. Some of these girls are annoying beyond belief especially dalia and alex with their tough girl attitude.
Well i think its impressive that they manage to include a bit more then just one personality with a great backstory? Honestly i think that attitute is pretty cool.
My brother, this is a case of "beauty is in the eye of the beholder". I think Alex is one of the more complex characters with the shit she's going through, and the last sex scene in her apartment was absolutely top notch. I agree that Calypso has a "high and mighty" attitude about her, but that diversifies the cast, instead of everyone being cute and shy like Luna for example.
Holy molly, I can only double down on what others say about "came for porn, stayed for the plot". I hope it's not a spoiler, but I literally cried at the Shostakovich's waltz moment, this is one of my favourite pieces ever, and this game surprised me in so much more intricate ways than just this one (though it was the ultimate peak of all the emotional roller-coaster), have run through unlocking all the scenes, Alex's arc I believe is the best of all (and her scene is something else, the most passionate life-like moment of the entire game I feel), it's a shame it feels a bit shorter than others, or maybe I was just gulping her story in huge bites, idk. For one, I liked this character so much, that I'm going to make another walkthrough when next version comes out, dodging all others and prioritizing just her. "Harem games" they say. To the creator dude: maybe others would hate what I have to say, but this game would have been fire even if you "forgot" to add the sex parts, you have a big talent for writing stories.
I want to make a donation, but I'm really insecure about posting my main card details on this site, and patreon/subscribestar are altogether banned in my country, at least, using my bank's card, but I'll try to figure something out
paypal is banned too, but it accepts crypto, which I don't have either, lol I guess I just have to try to apply for a Kazakhstan card and try smth out this way
if you havnt played their first game look it up. it is complete and of the very same quality....i just bought/downloaded it today and binged the whole game beginning to end.. and i agree the porn/sex is amazing but the plot and story and character development are TOP TIER!
Hey Cari, I just wanted to tell you that when I was replaying Eternum (I've played it like 20 times already) I noticed a reference of Darth Vader's line used by Thanatos when he tried to take the gem from Wagner which is "All I'm surrounded by is.. fear and dead men" and in my opinion I just think that was frickin cool and I don't know why it took me 20 times of replaying to catch the reference. And that's why Eternum is the best Avn ever I just love the story and the characters so much. Aight that's all
Eternum is my first AVN ever, and I think it’s ruined my enjoyment of future ones because it's just so good. You did an amazing job building these characters; all the girls are so different and unique, it’s crazy. I especially fell in love with Luna and Alex. The humor was one of the first things that hooked me, along with the number of funny references—like the Dark Souls 3 one right at the start, and then Thanatos just drops a Darth Vader speech. I had so much fun with this game, it’s unbelievable. It's a game I’d pay for, and I will do so once I’m done with it.
I can officially say that I came for the porn and stayed for the story and characters.
I didn't know how you could top yourself after I played OIAL, but holy fucking shitballs is this incredible.
The characters feel more real than real life 😉, the sound design fits every scene, and the adult scenes, my God did you outdo yourself! Not just the scenes themselves, but the music during the scenes fit PERFECTLY.
I already loved your style before I played this but now I. AM. FUCKING HOOKED.
I can't wait for the next update Caribdis. You make magic.
All I can say after finishing the game is that... I must keep moving forward.
Everything was just perfect. The story is thrilling from beggining to end, the comedy is just pure gold (I actually found myself laughing out loud everytime I sat down to play) and the girls are just fantastic. Honestly, I'm a sucker for horny shit, but this game had me more invested in just developing the relationships with the characters and the world rather than wanting to get into the next cutscene. Truly, marvelous work.
I'm so glad I got into Eternum as the next update is approaching. I can't wait.
I really love the story, how everything happened, and it's not just a sex game, there is a real story behind, and that's make the game just perfect !
I'm literaly dreaming every night about what could hapen next...
I cant wait for the next update ! I just want to see more of all the girls, they're all different but they still all really cute and just fucking kind (I think I'm falling in love with Alex...)
And thanks, really, for make a game so good like this and share it freely, is really nice from you ! <3
thanks to you ! When I finaly get a descent pay, I'm surely going to reward you with a little part of it. Because this is all that you deserve : a lot of love and good things <3

Amazing game!! I love the characters, the animations, the sto- I love it all!!
I have a question though. I am currently working in my first Visual Novel. I am able to add 2d animated characters and such, but I am unaware and/or lack the knowledge on adding in my 3d models. I have tried using the same method I used with the 2d models.. But.. I get one error after another and I have attempted to fix these errors.. I just don't know where I'm going wrong..
damn... Caribdis actually got the best games on Itch...

when we can have the new update?...on android
Luna is locked??why?
EDIT: Okay, I didn't explain paths: A path is a girl's romance side story with you and bad choices can cause you to lose paths. The UI indicates a lost path by greying out that character's portrait, like in your case. To troubleshoot where you went wrong, I recommend the walkthrough I linked below.
Here's a walkthrough, third download option, look for Luna's color (black).
You don't need any guide its a waste of time.

And for him it's already too late, he already lost a path. So I pointed him to a document that helps him understand what went wrong.
Locked? Or did you pick the worst option? In other words you probably "Broke" her
I couldn't agree more...
Penny is locked for me. I didn't go down her paths though.
There is zero upside to losing any of their paths. In some games, maybe that's a choice, but in this one, if the Heist (or y'know, playing Once in a Lifetime) didn't telegraph it for you, dunno what to say. The girls make each other better, and the farther in, the better they do together. Keep them all, always.
If you pick an incorrect choice then you can't continue said girl's route any further.
because you worse the choice
The game os giving a very difficult time to download on Andriod...is there avway to fix this
Here's an installation guide
Heard the new update releases today when does it release for non subscribers?

Caribdis, please tell me or us. How long do we have to wait for the 0.8 release 🥹
Man, we gotta be patient, you know these kinda things are not easy to make... You can see from the quality...
I know I know, I tend to forgot the game when busy on college so yeah that's why.
Well... That's fine, we just gotta let the creator take it's time...
This month on my Patreon and Subscribestar!
So I just saw the release date for the Public Release, and its 2 days away from my birthday. Its like an early birthday gift from you.
man, no rush at all, just voicing MY concern. WHEN IS .8 coming!!! soon i will be joining the military and wont be able to play this game again. my time is ticking lmao
The update will be released around December or January.
Man, we gotta be patient, these things are hard to make... Look at the quality bro, this ain't no joke...
yeah ik its quality af, precisely why i dont want him/her to feel any rush, but also precisely why im asking, my time is a ticking
Well... We can't do anything about that... Anyway... Goodluck on your military thing... You can do it, bro...
After military I think he won't be playing this game ever again since yk It kinda changes your way of perception and gives you discipline
Yeah I'm pretty sure he'll forget this.. and he'll see the world differently... it's like, he's gonna be a lot realistic there... Whatever happens... I wish him luck.
Coming out this month as early release!

That's correct, you need to use your browser for that.
Hope Caribdis gets to finish this. I believe you have great story telling ability. This could literally be a great show series! Hope all is going good in life so you may finish ANOTHER masterpiece! IF you haven't played do so!
Let's hope all of us that Caribdis is enjoying his/her life. Best wishes to the best creator!
Thank you 💗
I will finish this, for sure!
And after I'm done, I'll start working on a new game 🤩
We want to let you know that we love you. Just take your time. Always prioritize your health.
We'll take care of our health too to make sure that we will enjoy your games.
Omg, can't wait fr... Your works are superbly masterpieces...
Best VN porn game
Please no zip file android vershion
It's not up to them to choose. The game is too big for apk.
The latest animations are very impressive when compared to the earlier ones—not that the early ones were bad, but the newest ones are much more dynamic. I also appreciate the ability to change the camera angle.
Only thing that sticks out like a sore thumb seems to be the lengths gone to in order for MC's face not to be shown lol.
I played both games of Cardibis and I really enjoyed it. I love the personality of the characters he/she created. I wish I am rich enough because I definitely will support the games.
Thank you!
bring back stabby mike ❤️
Stabby Mike, stabby mike, stabby mike, stabby mike, stabby mike. Yes brother
Best priest ever!!
Stabby Mike has a country to run! He doesn't have time to be playing Eternum!
Orion referred to him as "Ex-President Michael Stabb" in his intro monologue tho. Also according to a post Cari made on Discord Mike served 2 full terms as President, so he's either retired or have gone back to his world-hopping/vigilante ways.
Since it must be by permission, I think it is OK to mention that Stabby Mike has a cameo in the most recent chapter of Ripples.
waiting
Man, I've played both of Caribdis's games and it's hell'a good... I've been checking here for the updates... Eternum is the best 18+ VN that can be played...
I'm so impressed that I even made an edit from this game...
Any new updates about version 0.8 of the game
91% done
It's being released this December (as always, there will be a few weeks of early release on Patreon and Subscribestar, after that, it'll be available for free here)
[THIS IS A REVIEW] TLDR: play this game, 19.3/20
Caribdis is a genius. I am not kidding.

Thank you for the kind words, Lzhr 💗
When i extract the files, i can't launch the game did i do somthnig wrong? or it have more condition to run the game? or it simply i didn't know how to properly launch the game. anyone can point this out for me
Here's an Android installation guide
Thankyou but i play this on PC, i forgot to tell
Ok, so you've fully extracted the game, then you're running Eternum.exe, and then what happens?
Sorry for late respond but for now i fix it by reinstall the game when ever i want to play it. I just save the saves file in the different folder.
Okay, but that sounds concerning tbh. I can still help you out if you like.
Bruh i think i have no purpose in my life anymore , I am just waiting for the update since months. Its hard for me.
Dont worry man the gooning lifestyle is hard but rewarding... not really actually its just hard... something else is hard also
everything is hard man but not rewarding
When is update???????
WE NEED UPDATE
is there a sex scene with calypso
not yet as far as i know but it is likely there is one in the new update. i think it should come in december but not sure.
Sorta/Kinda
Man, I'm getting sick of Calypso's "high and mighty"-act. I wish there was a "dark" route in this game. Some of these girls are annoying beyond belief especially dalia and alex with their tough girl attitude.
Well i think its impressive that they manage to include a bit more then just one personality with a great backstory? Honestly i think that attitute is pretty cool.
My brother, this is a case of "beauty is in the eye of the beholder". I think Alex is one of the more complex characters with the shit she's going through, and the last sex scene in her apartment was absolutely top notch. I agree that Calypso has a "high and mighty" attitude about her, but that diversifies the cast, instead of everyone being cute and shy like Luna for example.
Damn. Finally. An objectively bad opinion. I didn't know we had it in us.
p diddy approves this game very highly
Likely XD
Holy molly, I can only double down on what others say about "came for porn, stayed for the plot". I hope it's not a spoiler, but I literally cried at the Shostakovich's waltz moment, this is one of my favourite pieces ever, and this game surprised me in so much more intricate ways than just this one (though it was the ultimate peak of all the emotional roller-coaster), have run through unlocking all the scenes, Alex's arc I believe is the best of all (and her scene is something else, the most passionate life-like moment of the entire game I feel), it's a shame it feels a bit shorter than others, or maybe I was just gulping her story in huge bites, idk. For one, I liked this character so much, that I'm going to make another walkthrough when next version comes out, dodging all others and prioritizing just her. "Harem games" they say. To the creator dude: maybe others would hate what I have to say, but this game would have been fire even if you "forgot" to add the sex parts, you have a big talent for writing stories.
I want to make a donation, but I'm really insecure about posting my main card details on this site, and patreon/subscribestar are altogether banned in my country, at least, using my bank's card, but I'll try to figure something out
i dont know how your country views paypal but its a bit more Anon then just bank details
paypal is banned too, but it accepts crypto, which I don't have either, lol
I guess I just have to try to apply for a Kazakhstan card and try smth out this way
Thank you in any case!
You're breathtaking, sir! It's we who should thank you.
if you havnt played their first game look it up. it is complete and of the very same quality....i just bought/downloaded it today and binged the whole game beginning to end.. and i agree the porn/sex is amazing but the plot and story and character development are TOP TIER!
me also dude, ive just came becouse the game seem to had some nice scenes and wow, the best history that a fucking guy could do
Hey Cari, I just wanted to tell you that when I was replaying Eternum (I've played it like 20 times already) I noticed a reference of Darth Vader's line used by Thanatos when he tried to take the gem from Wagner which is "All I'm surrounded by is.. fear and dead men" and in my opinion I just think that was frickin cool and I don't know why it took me 20 times of replaying to catch the reference. And that's why Eternum is the best Avn ever I just love the story and the characters so much. Aight that's all
Glad you liked it! Thank you!!
Eternum is my first AVN ever, and I think it’s ruined my enjoyment of future ones because it's just so good. You did an amazing job building these characters; all the girls are so different and unique, it’s crazy. I especially fell in love with Luna and Alex. The humor was one of the first things that hooked me, along with the number of funny references—like the Dark Souls 3 one right at the start, and then Thanatos just drops a Darth Vader speech. I had so much fun with this game, it’s unbelievable. It's a game I’d pay for, and I will do so once I’m done with it.
I can officially say that I came for the porn and stayed for the story and characters.
P.S. Chop Chop is the GOAT.
Thank you very much!
If you liked this humour try Realm Invader as well, it's here on Itch, has a lot of the same strengths as Carbidis games!
I didn't know how you could top yourself after I played OIAL, but holy fucking shitballs is this incredible.
The characters feel more real than real life 😉, the sound design fits every scene, and the adult scenes, my God did you outdo yourself! Not just the scenes themselves, but the music during the scenes fit PERFECTLY.
I already loved your style before I played this but now I. AM. FUCKING HOOKED.
I can't wait for the next update Caribdis. You make magic.
Thank you Shay <3
All I can say after finishing the game is that... I must keep moving forward.
Everything was just perfect. The story is thrilling from beggining to end, the comedy is just pure gold (I actually found myself laughing out loud everytime I sat down to play) and the girls are just fantastic. Honestly, I'm a sucker for horny shit, but this game had me more invested in just developing the relationships with the characters and the world rather than wanting to get into the next cutscene. Truly, marvelous work.
I'm so glad I got into Eternum as the next update is approaching. I can't wait.
Thank you so much!!
NOOOO WHY DID IT HAVE TO STOP THERE NOOOOOOO
i have a feeling ima regret buying the polyjuice potion
highly unlikely, as the guide advices to do so.
Your game is just PERFECT !
I really love the story, how everything happened, and it's not just a sex game, there is a real story behind, and that's make the game just perfect !
I'm literaly dreaming every night about what could hapen next...
I cant wait for the next update ! I just want to see more of all the girls, they're all different but they still all really cute and just fucking kind (I think I'm falling in love with Alex...)
And thanks, really, for make a game so good like this and share it freely, is really nice from you ! <3
Same opinion bro. Dev have created a masterpiece.
My pleasure! Thank you for playing!
thanks to you ! When I finaly get a descent pay, I'm surely going to reward you with a little part of it. Because this is all that you deserve : a lot of love and good things <3
