Under The Iris
A downloadable Simply-Wrong Game for Windows and Android
Play as Taya, a long time- and [sexually] frustrated employee aboard the Vigil IV as things go south within the Iris star-system and she ends up stranded on the planet of Para. A low-tech planet notorious for its debaucherous tribes and carnal cultures.
Accompany her in her travels as she tries to enjoy herself despite her predicament while ignoring the darker truths as they unravel.

Under The Iris is a little passion project of mine and still a big work-in-progress, progress that will go at a steady, but slow, pace as I am pretty much a one person team, the music is done by the amazing ArchieWhitepaw though, go check him out if you like the sounds.
Currently there's still a lot of dialogue, areas and art to be added, I aim to make a visually pleasing game where your choices matter. For now though you can expect to run into placeholder assets, unfinished dialogue and barred off areas.

You wouldnt happen to have a discord would you?
I do, actually. It's on my Carrd
Sweet ill check it out
I'm a little confused, is the dragon skull dungeon place completable or not? The character trapped says something about a tool?
It's not completable yet.
Okay, it had seemed it was stated it was, so i was unsure. Thank you for clarifying!
What are the current companions?
Currently only Minxy can be reqruited
Oh, hope there is more soon.
I aim for one more recruitable companion before the end up the year. I have at least 3 planned.
That's amazing.
VirusTotal flags a Trojan in the files.
Sounds like you need a more reliable anti-virus. But if you don't have faith in my itch.io download, than go get the demo from Steam, it's just behind 1 update.
Would really like to play this game, but every time I try it says "a referral was returned from the server" never had that happen before, tried running as admin and it did nothing.
Is this still an issue? You can always get the game on Steam, the listed demo is behind one update, but the exe should be signed by Steam and not give issues.
Yeah, it is, I ended up fixing it by modifying some obscure ass system file from 1 to 0 to disable a windows authenticity check, incredible game btw, absolutely gonna buy the full release. Well at least I would, I have a bf now 💀. If anyone's curious I went to regedit and followed this path "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System" and turned ValidateAdminCode from 1 to 0, fixed the issue, Im sure theres some coding guide that could teach you how to fix it but I dont know jack about coding.
Cool!
And I know what the fix is, but the fix would be me having to cough up 500 bucks a year for a digital signature for the exe. These signing certificates feel like a scam. If you don’t pay, you don’t get a signing certificate. No signing certificate? Then you're not trusted.
And I will not be bullied into paying lmao
I love this game so much
When Android can play it
There's an android version out now.
I played your game for a while and found the merc's camp and always wondered how to get her as a companion since with Minxy around she disappears. Is she truly a possible companion?
She's not a companion at the moment.
i feel dumb, but where is "the BUSH"? lol
another masterpiece to collection, ehh it is harder to find one in today times, it bring memories when there exist people with passion, when your product metter more than cash
Thank you! Feel free to let me know if you encounter any bugs or performance issues in newer builds!
liking the artstyle a lot, would be nice to see other female characters/enemies too in the future
More female characters are being worked on.
A really really good game—like, genuinely great. I hope it gets at least one horse-cock in the future, hehe
•w•And I can't wait to find out what happens next. Like, whose blood is that in the destroyed ship
Thank you! :D
And the BellBearer has one. the big gal hugging the crystal. But there'll be more, no worries.
These updates just keep getting better and better, your doing great :)
Thank youuuuuuuuuuuu!!
I forgot how to extract the zip file
You right click the file and press the extract option.
Uwoh, thanks.. that'll be helpful
i know you just updated the game lol but ive been wondering if theres an update schedule or if its whenever you have enough content to justify an update? dont mean to nag for more stuff just curious❤
Currently I release an update every month that adds all the things I managed to get done in said month with the free time that I had. So the next update will be in about 30 days or so!
sweeeet
The game used to run really well for me back when I played it in February, but I recently tried playing again and suddenly it's very choppy and laggy. I'm on an ASUS VivoBook with Sonicmaster and Intel CORE i5. It's a pretty decent laptop that can run CS2, Ultrakill, and many others. I don't know what's causing my problem.
I am looking into it right now. I am struggling identifying the issue because I am not experiencing the lag on my devices, so I'm currently having someone who is experiencing these issues run through the game to inform me of the problematic zones, I should have a hotfix out soon.
Give the new version a try, it should run better again. Do let me know if there're still performance issues.
You are a Saint
Thank you so much!
add something like mini map and maybe some blooming pinterest in places where you can go i meen travel to other locations when you get close enough so it'll be more obvious where you can go i think it would be nice
p.s i really really wanna be abel to team up with April <3
Ooooh, a blooming effect is something I'll try to look into to make interactables more obvious, great suggestion!
El juego es una joya. Su arte, su historia, sus mecánicas. Aunque sea un proyecto pequeño y de una sola persona me parece algo maravilloso.
Si puedes podrías actualizar los controles de Android, confunden al comienzo pero luego te adaptas, aunque cuando vas a huir de los enemigos se vuelve incómodo.
Un traductor tampoco estaría mal, al menos centrarse en los idiomas más comunes o que podamos entrar al los archivos para traducirlos manualmente, yo lo haría en mis tiempos libres
Por todo es un buen juego
The menu is covering the D-Pad
and...why is the D-pad on the right side?
How to open the map on Android?
Thx for the feedback.
I will have the visual issue of the esc menu overlapping with the d-pad fixed in the next update.
The d-pad is on the right side because I put it there.
Currently the map is a work in progress and only works in the dungeon segment. For now, when in the dungeon, tapping the top left corner should open/close the map.
Do I have to wait for auto-save checkpoints? No manual save?
Any plans to add more languages? Some of those dialogue scenes are long.💀
Never seen a D-Pad on the right side before
could you add an option to switch it in the settings?
Also, I couldn’t find the control guide in the new version’s gallery 🤔
This version has no manual saves, no. It auto-saves at campsites and after specific events.
I do not have the money to hire translators, so I am not planning on adding extra languages.
If I have time I might add the option.
The previous version had a control guide because it had no visual buttons, the new visual buttons made the old control guide irrelevant because it referenced button locations that no longer exists, so it's been removed.
No no no, you don't need to pay for a translator!
Maybe you could just open up the text files or add a translation tool?
That way, fans could have an easy way to translate it.
(or just use ai to do that)
Love this update :3
Thanks! :'D Glad that you're enjoying it!
Do you think this game would ever be available on mobile? I'm just asking cuz I'm trying to play this on my tablet and the controls are very finicky.
The next update will have a greatly improved control scheme for android, I'll wrap up the update around the 29th
Sounds great! Thx
Hey it's me again, I seem to be soft locked inside the cave you find Nits in, I try to go back to the entrance but It won't let me go forward, but the only unexplored place is WIP
when you say " it won't let me go forward" do you mean you are unable to activate the room transition by walking into the exit? Or do you mean that there is a corridor you can't fully traverse? If it's the latter you might be in the corridor with the hole in the ground.
I see a long hallway with a blue transparent background, trying to move forward will eventually not do anything midway through said hallway
Yeaahh, you're in the hallway with the hole, if it's too hard to see I'll make the hole bigger next time. The route to the exit is back the other way.
Ahh ty bro, I eventually found my way out. Will I need a new save once this update drops?
I don't think you'll need a new save, but I'd still suggest that you do, just in case.
Wanted to play it and.... For playing it firstly i must install it on computer?
? If you want to play it on pc you install the pc windows version on the pc. If you want to play on mobile you install the android .APK on your mobile device.
Just usually some indie games don't need to be install after downloading rar, so didn't expect that
Overall game is GOAT. My only issue is the movement on Android is confusing me, in future updates will there be a movement UI or something?
Yeah! The next update will have a button overlay for android to visualize the buttons, I am working on the UI right now actually xD
Yippee :D. Very interesting game so far, a huge fan of the animation and art style gotta say I think this might take the cake for most impressive itch.io furry game!
Holy shit did i just discovered a gem? I was just looking for random furry nsfw games and i found this.
May I ask about the June update? Is it at the end of the month?
Yeah! I aim to push an update by the end of each month around the 29th.
Also, can you optimize the installer a bit? My save files got overwritten again.
I can't seem to recreate the issue you have been experiencing. Re-installing shouldn't remove your save files.
you should make more directional movement anims :) like walking forwards n backwards instead of just using the sideways walking anim.
sry if this sounds like an insult or sm, i just wanted to request and let you know :)
It's on my to-do list, just at the bottom somewhere xD
I want to use the time I have to work on the game to get more content in first.
alr
plz plz plz add gif's in gallery
and characters
I'll add it in the next update
Eternally grateful for the mobile version!
Is there any way to become stronger?(like buying weapons as in a RPG game?)
Are there only two types of monsters?
There will be! I have 3 extra enemy types in the works and some unlockable skills, stat boosts are something I will introduce as the dungeon expands.
but for now it is just the 2 enemy types in the game.
Loving the character design, looking forward for this project!
I'm seriously excited to see where this goes! I love the art and characters what a fun, hot game! <3
Thank you for the kind words! <3
I hope thisll work on android phones
I am looking into it!
You do not need to this game runs absolutly fine under android.
Steam has released a driver that makes every windows game unable on android.
Use the app "Game Native" check it up on github it explanations everything you need to know.
Steam being the GOAT once again lol
Thx for the info!
Saw an ad on e6. Wanted to ask, how much of the nsfw content is planned to be hetero and how much, if any, is lesbian? I don't really play many NSFW games unless it has a hefty amount of leabian content, and i can (preferably) opt out of hetero or m/m stuff.
I ask simply because my sexual preferences are lesbian.
Well, I have planned quite a bit of f/f action, but most of it won't be any time soon. The biggest jump in f/f content is likely to come once the eastern clan gets introduced, that clan being made up out of mostly women. Aside from that I also intend to introduce a female companion, add scenes with the current female cast and more.
But I can't put a timestamp on these things. At the time of writing there are no f/f scenes yet, only f/m and m/m.
Alright, thank you! I'll follow the game's progress and give it a try when f/f stuff has been added.
Solo devving on a project like this is unhinged /positive (i exploded upon contact with programming classes)
Wish you all the best.
Juegazo! El mejor arte de pixel q eh visto en personajes, 10/10
Game with pontential but to many blocked conted on demo idk to buy or nah like very nah animations is for demo i wont risk to buy full version
? It's not a demo, it's a beta and free. There is no full game to buy, because it's not finished yet. And, again, it's free.
okey then just do it game xD
i NEED more of Minxy, he's so cuteeee, great game 10/10
There'll be plenty more of Minxy in the future, no worries!
And am glad you like the game so far!
Game is great! Keep up the good work :)
Thank you, I will! :'3
I had the opportunity to play it and I really loved it, and I was wondering if there might also be a possibility of a mobile version in the future?
I will have to look into it, but if it turns out to not take too much troubleshooting or be too complicated then I will likely end up make one. Won't be anytime soon though.
i think this is one of the most promising game that ive played recently, every asset is incredibly done in a unique and refined artstyle, with enough amount of kinky kinky stuff, just makes u wanna have more of it!
Thank you for the kind words! Will be sure to add more kinky stuff in the next update ;3
