Soulbound To You
General Dahlia is sent on a suicide mission to kill all the demons of the opposing side with her measly team, but just when she's about to die, she reveals her plan to take control of the situation: the black magic spell of the Soulbind. With a Soulbind, two people's hearts, bodies, and souls are connected, and if one person dies, so does the other. Putting the enemy's general, Xenos, under the spell with the compromise of letting her people go if he takes her hostage... How will Dahlia fare at the enemy's castle?

Adding to my wishlist as I'd love to check this game out!
It won't load :(
rip… i wish i had a solution… if you haven’t already, I’d try to download it if you still want to play, since the game might be a bit much for older/slower computers to run on web (since the game is a bit bigger than what i think is recommended for web)
Xenos is hot. Love the CG art. Quite enjoyed the writing with soulbind spell. Well done!
Any chance there will be an option for male protagonist as well? :)
Question one: WHY do you try to spawn another process?

Yeah uhhhh no clue why that happened (or what that means) >~< will ask Renpy discord…
“install the game clean and don’t edit it” is what they said
What were you trying to change?
Nothing. Just opened game in browser tab.
Hmmm, I’d keep it in the itchio game page, haven’t tested the separate browser nor know how to deal with errors on that end.
In frame I'm just getting "DOMException: The operation is insecure." in console and "Warning: cannot save games" in game itself immediately.
I quite enjoyed this. I like how forward, open and strong-willed Dahlia is yet she also has desires, feelings, cares for her soldiers and has a good heart and enjoys training. She is a really likeable character!! Xenos was a positive surprise I enjoy how he may be dominant yet is also caring of his soldiers and respectful of Lia's feelings and emotions.
I really appreciate how both of them were so active in the NSFW scenes, that tends to sometimes be a rarity in M X F romances. Their rivalry and the interesting ways their emotions wrapped around one another when soulbound was cool too. Also enjoyed the plot twist concerning them being pawns to higher ups, they have a lot in common character wise. A really good match.
Also it's very hard to find media that handles the unequal relationship between a human and demon in such a balanced way so thank you :)
Thank you for giving the game a try and I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Regarding the plot twist, there’s definitely a bigger story that could’ve been told that I’ve somewhat developed but had to cut out due to the significant increase in workload it would cause. After I finish my current WIPs, I might revisit it if people are interested :D
I’m glad you enjoyed Dahlia and Xenos as characters, too! I like creating relationships that ultimately even out so I’m glad you felt that their relationship was equal!
I love enemies to lover stories if it's done (subjectively speaking) good and this story in my eyes is the case
I love Dahlia's snarky and sassy comments to rile Xenos up hehe
And our dear Xexe kinda acts like a "Tsundere" but more of a realistic one but not even on purpose because he is taking everything so serious especially Lia's teasing/flirting which in my eyes is very charming and amusing ^^
He clearly wants us gone at first lol but because he can't he has to put up with our Shenanigans which is a good revenge lol. They clearly have a lot of chemistry
The fact that Lia and Xexe even share the pleasure someone gets made me laugh especially seeing grumpy virgin Xexe's reaction XD
And i just like that they didn't start attacking each other again because i always think that violence is not the answer and war never is.
I also love the art scenes and the way you write NSFW scenes ^^
I will definitely check out your other and future projects :D
Take care
Omg I… never thought of Xenos as a tsundere but I totally see it KDJFKJDHF
The mechanics of the Soulbind was smth that I had in the original idea (the lore and characters evolved a LOT), and I’m really glad you found it funny, too. Between the banter and the soulbind, these two were super enjoyable characters to write <3
As far as them not fighting each other… bro writing them encountering each other for a second time made the evil!me come out. Sometimes you just wanna make ur blorbos suffer, yknow? My co-writer was on call and every time I had an evil idea, she was like “Please, no.” so I staved off my sadistic urges Σd(˘ꇴ˘๑)
Speaking of my co-writer, she was actually the one who wrote the NFSW scenes so I highly recommend checking out her stuff too here! Her expert writing got me kicking my feet giggling each time.
Millasai is a great artist fr. When burn out was starting to hit, her art gave me strength and willpower to finish hehe
Also thank you so much for your support! It really means a lot and I’m happy you enjoyed the game! <3~
Hehe
I see :O
Well thank the demons your co-writer stopped you! My heart couldn't handle a sad ending for them ;-;
I will check her out ^^ edit: Oh i know her! I played this bunny and cat guy game XD
I'm glad she helped you through a tough time :D
THANK YOU and your team for creating this game :D
This was utterly beautiful and the spice was just perfect! The artworks were just beautifully made and placed and i honestly enjoyed the whole thing so much. The hot demon guy did certainly boosted the score haha.
I’m glad you enjoyed! Thanks for checking the game out <3~
