Dark Temptations

Dark Temptations follows the ongoing story of Dean, a young IT professional who reluctantly agrees to a deal with a demon. He gets to repeat the same week as many times as he wants until he's happy with it, and all the demon Sathuriel claims to want is to observe him and enjoy watching his life as he plays out various decisions.

Like most visual novels, the decisions you make control the flow of the story. But we've taken it quite a bit further; you're expected to repeat Dean's week numerous times, seeking out specific answers and objectives but also exploring a broadening set of locations and characters based on where you go, who you interact with, and how. Planning your week around the characters you want to interact with and mastering the flow of time is essential to success.

As Dean explores his city and the lives of the people around him, he learns to unlock changes that cascade back in time, altering his relationships to people and in some cases, their attitudes and even their bodies. The women he gets closer to become more intertwined and as they change, an increasing number of scenes will explore their connections to each other both socially and sexually. 

Dean's freedom to repeat events, learn things about people, and perfect his approach to situations blurs the line between helpfulness and manipulation. Make no mistake, this game includes a lot of adult situations but it's no escapist fantasy. There are serious questions within about how far is too far and what lines one is willing to cross. And what happens if Sathuriel decides to renege on the deal and leave Dean stuck with awful, destructive consequences?

This game is in active development. Complete content is included for the first story for Charlotte, a mildly gothy coworker, and some other shenanigans surrounding their office and the other characters in it. There are 6-12 hours of content and several different characters to explore spicy content with.

The ongoing plan for Dark Temptations is to build more content and release periodically. With a solid base of support on Patreon, there will be monthly releases to supporters and less frequent public releases somewhere behind that. The final game is intended to include:

• 7 different main romances with stories that help each woman grow as a person and develop physically to keep up with her personality. 
  • Charlotte - a shy, mildly goth coworker in the IT department with hidden interests in voyeurism, exhibition and partner sharing
  • Cristina - a religiously sheltered civil servant with a lot of repressed sexual desires that can become a truly wild side
  • Junko - a college friend that immigrated from Japan with her family and still struggles to assimilate and explore hypnosis and cosplay/roleplay interests 
  • Megan - a barista struggling to make rent and survive life in the city who is capable of a lot of growth in several ways, and may have a special source of milk for your morning coffee
  • Sandra - a hard-driving office manager who wants to exert control... but might get to a point where she's willing, even grateful, to give up control
  • Zee - a fitness nut who avoids human contact most of the time, but has a deeply held love of pain and submission if she can reconnect
  • One more we'll reveal once the others are well underway
• Numerous side-dates and hookups with women around the city, sometimes connected to the main romances in unexpected ways.
• A robust city environment with many unlockable locations to visit over the span of the week, as Dean expands his horizons to more people and things to do.
• Engaging minigames to keep gameplay varied and entertaining, with options to skip them if they aren't your cup of tea.
• Community-driven additions and scene ideas from Patreon supporters, and polls for which characters and content to add next.

Dark Temptations rides the line of moral choices but Overactive Imagination Games is solidly on the side of sexual contact that takes place with enthusiastic consent between adults. All sexual content developed for this game will follow suit.

All of the art and dialogue in Dark Temptations is hand-crafted by a real live pervert. Generative AI will never be intentionally used in the creation of assets for this game.
