Hey everyone! The next update has officially moved into the wrap-up/production phase! On that note, it will probably be the smallest update ever, in terms of linear time. It will stop just short of continuing the main cast's story, and i wanted to explain that, for any who care to know why. (dev heavy stuff, so if that's an immersion breaker i get it, but for those who want to know...) This scene, while very short linearly, took me nearly 3 months, due to the fact that it branches into two separate paths (hetero or lesbian) , that each have 3 custom animations. If you have straight content disabled, then it will default to the lesbian path, if you do not, then you will be given the choice of which path to follow. 6 animations took 95% of all that time, easy, and there really isn't any way around that. Animations just take time. I was going to wait until the first branch of the following scene is complete, and release that as the next update, but it's going to take just as long, if not longer, and i do my best to stick to 3 month release cycles, regardless of content size. I know some AVN players like to skip updates from time to time, so that when they return, there's that much more content to enjoy. I'm gonna be honest with you. If you're one of those types, this would be the update to skip steamhappy But as i said, i try to stick as close to a steady 3 month release cycle as i can, and if i wait until the scene following this one is done, it'll put me at more like 6-7 months since the last update. I'd just prefer to keep it to the 3 months cycle. Anyway, that's the news! Hope everyone had a great Memorial Day Weekend! ~ Paper Tiger
Rivers of Astrum: Daughter of Darkness follows the story of Kimberly Ashmoore. Seeking to leave the only place that she has ever called home, Kim embarks on a mission, and gets swept up in a tide of destiny that no one could have predicted. Whether that change is for the better, or for the worse is for you to decide! (literally!)
Featuring meaningful choices, and dynamic relationships between the cast; the things you say and the actions you take will have impactful changes on the story, both obvious and subtle!

Rivers of Astrum is a story that I've had in my head for 30 years. In that time it has been written, re-written and revised countless times, as it has evolved over the years. My three big passions are art, storytelling and creation in general. This is a passion project that I've been working on (in some form or another) for nearly 7 years.
Rivers of astrum is a long-paced story. It has ups and downs just like any other, but this story is intended (in it's final form) to encompass 6 volumes. "Daughter of Darkness" is volume 1 of the Rivers of Astrum Saga.
I am thoroughly interested in any and all feedback anyone may have, as I've received precious little of it. I also love to engage with the players, so please - if you have any concerns or questions at all - feel free to reach out!
It is worth noting that I have a standing agreement with the lead voice actress in the game. She voices NSFW scenes at her own discretion, and stops wherever she chooses. This does lead to some partially voiced NSFW scenes, but I personally feel like that's an infinitesimally small price to pay for the talent and immersion that she brings to the project!
