What are the system requirements for this game?

It's much lighter than GTA V, so it's going perfect on my not so new PC.

I still don't understand the game and its controls.

So you can't leave the corral, you can't cross the river. You are trapped.

Interacting with the succubus is not working, neither is attacking and targeting her. Going behind the succubus is impossible because she is leaning to a wall and I can't climb the wall or get behind it. So I can walk within the corral forever and shot blasts at noone or trap myself (but not the succubus). What do I miss?

Wow, I completely forgot about this game. I payed the demo ages ago and found it enjoyable and its nice to see that it hasn't been completely abandoned yet. Once I finish moving I may try the demo again and see if anything has changed.

I'm sorry, in the next public demo, I plan a little more of a tutorial. Hitting the E key will teleport you. You can hold E down to aim the teleport over the bridge, or over the fences!

Sneaking up behind an enemy(hit shift to sneak) will allow you to charm them by hitting spacebar.

Not abandoned at all, just a little slow as its a one man job! I'm slowly making progress on it!

Don't worry, I understand the time required to make a game...especially when its a one man project.

@everyone interested: check Mithos' patreon page (link in first post) he has progress updates there and they can be viewed by anyone. For example, last update was on 16th October.

Thanks for mentioning this. I actually post a public update every sunday. Though sometimes I forget to modify the creator page to show it!

Holy snap Mithos56 is on this forum?!

I joined up to thank another game developer for inspiring a change of direction in my own project, I had no idea you were here too.

You are an absolute inspiration of the go big or go home variety, and I can't wait to see where you go next with Meridiana's Magical Investigations!

If you don't mind my asking, what is your entire toolset? I'm under the impression that you're using Maya, ZBrush and of course Unreal Engine 4. Anything I'm missing? Anything you'd change if doing it over again?

I also use 3d coat, substance painter, and xnormal, in addition to a photo editor to combine textures and make the occasional mask.

As to what I'd change, I originally had wanted the game to have a little bit of a darker tone, and Meridiana be a little more selective on who she has sex with. Those two things kinda got away from me. Hopefully I can make a few corrections without making too many people angry.

I was hoping it would be in a few months from now, but I want to make sure I have something interesting new to show, besides additional scenes. Right now I would say hopefully by April.

Re: [Unreal Engine 4] Meridiana’s Magical Investigations - Stealth 3D Game

So I've been looking at the last updates on this game on the creator's patreon and it feels to me that the enemies will have a hard time getting anywhere near Meri, let alone do any sexy stuff to her...
I really do wonder what is the concept for the combat system in this game...

The concept for the combat is trying to control the enemies and making room to get off the powerful spells as efficiently as possible(casting spells will take your hp if you're too liberal with it).

A lot of the more powerful spells will have longer cast times and animations, so it would make it easy for a loose enemy to sneak up and hit you.

That being said, the sexy stuff relies more or Meridiana sneaking up on the enemies, versus them sneaking up on her.

Thanks for clarification!

Stealth is one of my favorite genres. Your art is so amazing I'm reconsidering my hatred for 3D.
