Corris ~Piercing of Darkmoon Tower~
A downloadable game for Windows
The Egg has awakened and the Shrine of Darkmoon has risen once again, draining the life of this peaceful land. What's worse, the Dark Lord has captured cute elf girls and locked them away in his tower! The elf maiden Corris, who has arrived in this land seeking thrills and adventure, has come to the tower to put the Dark Lord in his place and save the elf girls! Either she will defeat the Dark Lord, or be captured herself, she's kind of into that.
Game is only intended for persons of 18+ Years of Age

Very fun game, definitely took a bit to beat some of the bosses. I was just curious if I could at least get some sort of hint on how to get that 5th scene in the gallery since I cannot figure it out for the life of me.
This took me a while too. If you go to the spot right past where you needed a key you got from the first dragon boss (right before the checkered floor), enter the stairs/door and to the blue/grey brick area. In there go right, and jump the gap to go right again, then in this room lose your hp but DON'T turn to stone.
I second that these are fun games. I also enjoyed "The Perils of Princess Christina' and sequel (mentioned above) if you want more.
Oh wow, thanks a million! Definitely wouldn't have thought that area would have two different game overs depending on where you were in it, though I suppose it makes sense given the placement in the gallery.
Thank you for this answer as well, because I double checked which Gallery Image this was and thought "Wait, how do you get that one again? What did I do??"
Heya! So I ended up not being able to beat the final boss after all, but I had a blast getting to that point (and fwiw, succumbing to the power of the egg seems like as plausible an ending as any :p). The resource management requires a lot of care from the player, and I'm into it. As I said before, I'm not great at this sort of game, but I had a great time learning the nuances of the movement and hitboxes and coming up with clever solutions to the tougher bosses. I love the manual and all the attention to detail in the game itself. Looking forward to playing more Corris!
I saw that your other Corris platformer got delisted from itch. Is there another website we can download it from? I couldn't find anything in my searches, and I can recommend a couple sites if you're not sure where to reupload it.
Hello! Thank you for your interest in the other Corris game. For now I'm still regrouping from it being de-listed but I'm going to take the time and work out some stuff for it for an eventual re-release in some form.
That being said, if you do have any suggestions, please let me know, though I think Bluesky or Twitter might be the better place to mention it for now just in case. My usernames are the same on there honestly just @ me. I don't want to cause any further ire here at the moment. Thanks for understanding.
Other itch users have been able to mention alternate websites without issue: https://roksim.itch.io/slash-cucumber-xxx/devlog/994984/the-itchio-incident
(edit: not Discord, but the two sites mentioned afterward)
On top of the two sites mentioned there, archive.org also allows NSFW software.
(I don't have a Bluesky account, sorry)
woah hot game with elf
Very good Zelda2-esque platformer, with garish graphic, a cosy gameworld and a remarkable set of enemies.
Bosses are difficult so expect to die a lot. You can see the dev poured his sol in it, from the many little things the developer put in there, from the otherwordly dialogue lines (reminiscent of translations of 8-bit era), cute art, and retro mechanics.
Good job!
finally... a DLSite-worthy action eroge on itch
super inspiring game, absolutely love this passionate diy energy, a real labor of love that made me feel like i could (and should) be hand-making my own OC eroge and ys 3-likes. there were a couple difficulty-related hiccups that tried my patience but they didn't stop me from having a complete and rewarding experience (in fact, i beat the final boss twice to see two different endings). bravo!!!
This was a nice little platformer metroidvaniathingamajig, just some really good energy all the way through. I enjoyed slashing things up and continuing Corris's quest to get those Elves out of a mysterious overlord's hands...
After playing through the whole game I can safely say, truly Corris is the chad we've been waiting for
...Ok I've only done one ending so I don't know what happens in the others sorry
Amazing - this game may first appeal to you with it's cute chibi style and carefully crafted pixel graphics, but it's also a surprisingly addicting adventure due to its smart design and fair challenges. The developer's other works are very different but I still found myself enjoying this one immensely, like when I often found myself wondering if I should play it safe and go back, or keep fighting for an EXP boost.
Think of this like when you were younger, when a cool older relative snuck their favorite game to you, or you stumbled across a lost gem in a used game store. You can tell it's a labor of love and every decision precisely done.
This game is really really fun and lovely!! It's got a nice snappy XP curve, big cool levels to explore, and an adorable style. It's a surprisingly beefy adventure -- I spent a whole evening playing it and unlocking all the gallery pics and endings, and it all capped off with a really satisfying climax. This is my favorite game from this developer yet.
