Mortis Invicta - Case 1 version 0.2.0 — BUGHUNT Build (JOIN THE HOLY BUG PURGE!)
Hey Brothes and Sister of the Imperium,
The build is finally done.
Fresh out of the oven, so please... go break it for me. Hunt every bug you can find.
Now, There is... one slight inconvenience. .
As the story grew, I realized I needed WAY more artwork than I originally planned. So you'll run into a few placeholders here and there. Give me about ten more days to polish everything and replace them with proper artwork. Tomorrow, I'll post a full breakdown of everything I want to squeeze into those ten days of polishing.
Anyway...
Here's the premise of the game :
You wake up with amnesia after your ship slams into... something. Now you're drifting helplessly through the Warp. Your Gellar Field has failed, a Warp entity slipped aboard, and now the entire ship is slowly turning into a daemon's favorite holiday resort.
Your job is to investigate ten clues I've scattered throughout the ship, identify the entity, hunt it down, and decide whether you're going to deal with it like a proper Puritan... or embrace the spicy heretical options instead.
Sci-fi writer that I hopelessly am... I've tried to make the sci-fi side of things feel as believable as possible.But let's be honest—I'm just an artist who binge too much sci-fi. I'm definitely not a physicist. So if any of you know this stuff better than I do, I'd genuinely appreciate your feedback. If I've accidentally violated every known law of physics, please let me know before someone who's not one of my Patrons notices. I have absolutely no shame in front of you guys anyway.
One more thing...
If you spend all your time flirting with the crew instead of doing your bloody job… You and all of your crews probably going to die.
I've added Countdown Events that keep making the situation worse the longer you waste time. As your ship sinks deeper into the Warp, living tendrils begin crawling through the corridors, reality starts falling apart, and everything becomes increasingly... unpleasant. Two of those events also come with NSFW artwork. To make you even more afraid… here’s what happens to your ship when you drag your feet for too long and end up with a Game Over
The rest... I'll let you discover for yourselves. No point spoiling all the fun. Although... now that I think about it, I may have already spoiled half of it in my previous post. We'll just pretend that never happened.
What's new compared to the demo?
Futa and Lesbian Modes. While the lesbian content hasn't made it into this update yet, there is one futa scene available. If you'd rather not see that content, you can simply disable it with a toggle before starting the game.
A proper tutorial pop-up, so you don't immediately wonder what the hell you're supposed to do.
A day system to move time forward. (Groundbreaking, I know.)
Energy management. Your character can get tired, so if you become a little too enthusiastic and keep taking actions all day, you'll eventually have to get some sleep.
Ten investigation clues with both Puritan and Radical approaches, each leading to different resolutions.
A dating sim system. It's still in its early stages—I wanted to get the foundation working first. It'll become much deeper over time. There are already three NSFW scenes if you're curious. God, I really hope this system actually works!
Four Countdown Events to remind you that you're stranded in the Warp because your Gellar Field is completely compromised. Maybe stop flirting for five minutes and start saving the ship. Two of these events also include NSFW artwork.
Three endings: Puritan, Radical, and Neutral, along with two additional NSFW scenes. The Neutral Ending doesn't have any NSFW artwork. It's also the most boring ending. Coincidence? I'll let you decide.
A quick travel system, because apparently nobody enjoys memorizing the layout of a spaceship anymore. (Back in my day, that was part of the fun... You can probably guess how old I am.)
Give me another three days and I'll clean up the walkthrough before uploading it. To be honest, I've tried to design everything so it's intuitive enough that you shouldn't need one in the first place. Hopefully you can solve the mystery naturally.

I'll also upload some gameplay clips to show off the new systems. And if time permits...
I'll even make a video walkthrough. No promises on this though. But if I can squeeze it in, I'll get it done.
Cheers,
Celeng

Other stuff I noticed: When talking to Mydea about her dad, at the start, the text seems a little wonky, words repeating When I tried to gather the crew to the mess hall, I chose to do it later and it crashed to main menu, both puritan and radical way Days dont count down correctly, the numbers do go down when I reach the specific stage, but they are otherwise same The quest doing crew manifest is slightly broken, i may have somehow done it two times
Hey! I've just uploaded a new build with the fixes for the bugs you reported. Thanks again for helping me track them down! Here's what I fixed: * The Navigator Sanctum → Main Menu bug is fixed. I accidentally used `return` instead of `call` in the script. I always mix those two up. 😅 * The repeated dialogue about Mydea's dad is fixed too. That was just leftover from copy-pasting while I was building the branching dialogue. * The day counter is fixed. The counter itself was fine—it was just the UI display that was wrong. The only thing I still can't reproduce is the Crew Manifest playing twice. I checked all the strings and variables, and everything looks fine on my end. If you have some time, would you mind joining the Discord server? I might need a few more details to track it down. No worries if you can't—it's just a bit easier to go through bugs and walkthroughs there. https://discord.gg/MfDZJbeJS
Doing the first investigation, when I talk to mydea in the navigators sanctum about where the warp entity is right now, it sends me to main menu
