Nice story, great art, cute "wolf skull girl". The 90 hour mark and subsequent end of the demo left me feeling cockblocked and heartbroken, hoping the next update comes very soon
There is a roadmap in the log, it says presumably in the third quarter of 2024. It's pretty vague how much will a chapter be in terms of content, but we'll see. I'm pretty sure it will be plenty worth the wait.
Also, I am fine with disassembling the apk if I have to, but an in game gallery for the pictures would be a nice feature to have.
Apart from that, the potential seems massive here, I'll be curious to see where the game will go. Thanks for your service so far, keep up the good work!
Since it is still quite early in development, I feel like I should point out that in my personal opinion, the fur of Mal0 is way too pale in it's current form, which, although helps with contrast, is not very fitting for her in my opinion.
Yeah, like, I think she would've looked better if her design matched the one in the second or third image you posted. Btw, where are these images from? I've been following this game and I haven't seen them anywhere else.
The really white one is the legit one, the rest are my rather amateur edits. All assets can be found as webp in the game files. Just unzip the apk, or idk how it's packaged for Windows.
The game shows a lot of promise, I can tell ya I'm already hooked! Shame there wasn't any actual NSFW, but um sure we'll get enough of that in at least another update or two if the full version doesn't immediately drop. One nit-pick I have about it though is that Mal0, or Scp-1471, is very hard to spot in the first couple pictures, and then a couple after that, afterwards however it's kinda hard to miss her. I do have decent eyesight and glasses, but it felt like playing Where's Waldo at first, still very enjoyable and will patiently wait for the next update!
unfortunately, I do not understand English, but I am waiting for the full version and if I understood correctly from one of the comments, then there will be a translation into Russian in the release
Agreed, but her fur IS kinda pale though is it not? Compared to her hair, even if it's grayscale, this is so bright, it's practically white... not sure how I feel about that.
so far, I love the game and the fact that it revolves around mal0 makes it even better i especially love how fluffy the tail is. However I've noticed a very strange issue, the screen is cut in half and the bottom half is pushed to the right so the top and bottom of the screen aren't lined up. No clue if I can do something to fix this or not but any suggestions are appreciated.
Huh, that's a new one! We've noticed that if you click too fast through some transitions weird things can happen. If you can replicate this screen tear or at least get it to pop up multiple times, we can figure out a possible fix!
I can easily replicate it as all I need to do is launch the game. For some reason without doing anything and from the first time I launched the game it's always been like that. I'll try to uninstall and reinstall to see if the download was messed up in some way. Another note that I didn't put in the first comment is that it seems only background things are effected, for example when a character pops up behind the text box like when you view mal0 through the camera that's not cut in half but everything behind it is. while the mal0 pictures you're sent are cut in half. I'm bad at explaining things so I'll grab more pictures to show what I mean when I can and add them to this comment.
EDIT: Research suggests that the solution might be found on this page, specifically the portion below:
Huh. I have no idea why the backgrounds are being torn like that, but I'll see what I can find on Google. If this doesn't work and you aren't already in Discord, join the Discord and DM me (night.fox.works) so I can get more details and start hunting down the cause of this!
I'm back with results and it kind of worked. The tearing is gone but now the game crashes when trying to load or start a new save, basically anything past the title screen. I'm joining the discord now and will also try to get an android emulator working to see if maybe my computer just doesn't like this specific version.
I haven't had much luck with visual novels but this one already has me hooked. Good writing, good art (got a new desktop wallpaper now) and music that really sets the tone.
I wonder how in the world you can be making such a good games and don't lose your sanity, keep the excellent quality and don't destroy your mind (sorry for my bad english)

Honestly same, but I think that just means they did a great job.
when is full version set to be released?
Not anytime soon.
Made an account just to say this was an AMAZING start to a VN I'll now be very much looking forward to!
Please do keep up the excellent work, glad to see Mal0 get such a nicely-made VN <3
Is there a chance that we can select our gender at one point?
While this was a feature on A Fortnight at Frenni Fazclaire's, this will not be present in MalOvent.
awhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I would suggest that a darker tone would work better for her, and I think most Mal0 enthusiasts would agree.
Or you could compromise, just a bit.
Just the teeeeniest of bit. But again, just suggesting. (Would be really cool tho.)

Long story short im hooked on this VN

Very much enjoyed this prologue! Will be looking forward to future updates, naturally being as supportive to Mal0 as I possibly can be.
Very interesting and honestly has me hooked immediately, well done and i cant wait to see what the future of this game will be :)
wow i must say this is one of my favorite mal0 designs
Agreed, but her fur IS kinda pale though is it not? Compared to her hair, even if it's grayscale, this is so bright, it's practically white... not sure how I feel about that.
The alpha was fun, looking forward to more!
Bro the cliffhanger killed me, im hooked on this, great vn so far!
i like this
I always leave the game when i play it send help
Pls fix it pls
What platform are you on?

I haven't had much luck with visual novels but this one already has me hooked. Good writing, good art (got a new desktop wallpaper now) and music that really sets the tone.
Definitely will be looking forward to updates.
Finally, a good Mal0 game. I kinda wish it was more interactive though, but a completely linear visual novel can also be good.
Things will open up in terms of branching in Act 2!
This got me hooked instantly. Eager to see more!
For something so short, it's really good, quickly got my attention, really gonna wonder how this story plays out
Aight i have test this and i must say... UR DOIN GOOD LAD.
Is this game NSFW just wondering
"MalOvent is an adult horror visual novel"
Yeah, it is. Please pay closer attention to games description next time
I wonder how in the world you can be making such a good games and don't lose your sanity, keep the excellent quality and don't destroy your mind (sorry for my bad english)
The trick is not having any sanity to begin with ;)
Based, lol :]
A very good game! I wonder what Mal0 will do, it was scary when she abruptly disappeared)
Does it have sex?
I never use my Itch.io Account nor Comments but this Game is actually interesting than Other im actually invest
If i have the Money and Bank account i Would support your Patreon I'm serious
I tough it like a week old game but it came out yesterday
First, a Fortnight at Frenni Fazclair's now this?
Really nice visual novel for being an alpha and a great art style, excited to see more!
Cute, I liked it, but so little - it's literally a prologue. I hope you don't abandon this.
When can we expect an update
See the Roadmap in this Dev Log!
One I'd have sweaty, all-night bed breaking sex with.
And the other is Mal-0.
I love hove everyone saw this screen, and immediately thought of Mr Beast lol.
This game made me smile for the first time in a month.
Genuinely amazing
Eeeey the game is finnally out! Really liked the story and artstyle too
Shall wait for the next update
Ren'Py games often get flagged as false positives by anti-virus!
Just played it. Love it~ Cant wait for the next update. XD
