Hi Lady_Miyu I'm sorry it's not working for some reason. What type of OS are you using? PC(windows), MacOS or Linux? Are you getting any type of message?
Hi, I found a bug. The game crashes during the level 3 bonding chat with Water Priest and gives this error:
TypeError: %c requires int or char
Changing the “Seldom can anything be said with 100% certainty” line to “with absolute certainty” fixed the issue. It looks like the game doesn't understand that "% c" is a string of text.
Thank you again for taking the time to find, report and fix another bug! I'd like to put you in the credits as a a way of showing my appreciation. How would you like to be credited? If you don't have any preference, can I just put Itchiopizza ? Thank you again very much!
and Thank you so much for all of your work finding my grammar errors everywhere! And thank you for the drawing! I love this depiction of Miyetta! Who doesn't love a tsundere Queen?
Thanks for giving my game a try and I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it so far, Here's a link to a quick quide I typed up. Let me know if you have any further questions. Some of the endings are just variations.
i only played deita's route so far but i loved it so much! she's such a good mix of being very forward but also really cute in the way that makes you want to take care of her...... the scene where we get to sleep in the same room almost made my heart explode...
i'm so excited to play through the other routes! jeth is hilarious, and mikaylis really grew on me. the scene where he punched the wall made me go "woah!". he seems like the kind of guy who has a quiet but very immense rage building.... so i found myself really wanting to know more. maybe this is a dangerous point of mine QAQ
i loved the gameplay sooo so much!! the dice stuff is so fun. it was so funny when we were first learning the type/class matchups. we would have a really sub-optimal team but still try to stick it out to the end, and it got so intense cheering for the units to win. i love dungeon crawler games too so this was everything!!!
when i took a step back i realized that all of my favs were the water units. maybe it was because their high levels of emotions made them really funny?? i think i met with waterrogue and he told me that i was giving him good luck so he was gonna go gamble. then the next morning i relaxed in my room and i had a letter from him asking for money. i laughed so hard that my stomach hurt. i want to give him pocket money. the little interactions you could have with these units really enhanced the experience. i really liked waterknight and of course deita and my assistant watermage too ^_^
i am sooooo excited for future updates!!!! i want to play ADW in the meantime to see more of watermage!!!! please keep up the amazing work!!!! and here is fanart i drew ;_;
Aww your MC is so cute! And I love the blue ribbon, is that symbolic of team water? The Muppet version of Lor is so funny and I'm pleased to know that a common unit was able to make a memorable impression! Thank you so much for sharing your lovely art!
I'm glad to hear you liked the dungeon crawls and combat along with the story. Some of my favorite games are story heavy games with combat and exploration to help with that precious character bonding. I hope you got some lucky rolls and turned the tables!
like the original, i really can’t praise the unique gameplay, well-written characters, music, art and overall story enough !!
it just immediately draws you in, and it was a lot of fun getting to know the villains and seeing an alternative what-if storyline being explored so thoroughly. the way it mirrors the arcs of the original, while showcasing completely different dynamics with our boys from ADW, was also such a treat. I felt so bad at times making an enemy out of them, when I previously was romancing them in the other one lmao :,))
speaking about romance, I was pleasantly surprised by the much faster pace and the way they were the ones taking the initiative. their possessive, overly affectionate way of showing their adoration was such a drastic (and very much enjoyable ) change from the sweet slow-burn from ADW. Although I’ve admittedly only romanced Jeth so far, I really savored each and every scene with him, yearning for more each time they ended . the way you write is just too delicious and heart-fluttering !! plus , he’s such a charming and intriguing character that I ended up not caring about the red flags at all haha. other than him my most liked character was Deita, my absolute sweetheart (and unexpectedly a simp like the others lolll) .
the way you approached each characters design and personality is another aspect I admire - although some might share an element or class (and the accompanying traits with it ) , they all still retain complexity and differ from each other . like Jeth and Samuel both embodying traits of the air element while also having completely different values and approaches ! loved reading about each class and element and going like ‘ wow it fits so well with this character ! ‘ hehe .
overall I can’t express my love and respect for both you and this game enough , such an creative concept done well . expect to see some fanart soon ! <33
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts about this project. I'm glad you enjoyed both versions of ADW as it was fun for me as a writer to explore the characters from both sides of the aisle. Just curious but what did you think of the limited voice acting? It's also my first time working with voices and my friends are pretty busy so I tried not to overburden them with too many lines. I had so much fun with them that I'm thinking of incorporating voices in my future projects as well.
The element and faction personality traits were something that I came up with after creating the rock-paper-scissors battle system to give me something to focus character stories around. I don't usually work with such a large cast of characters, so it was a useful tool for me to reference to keep individual characters distinctive and thankfully worked out great with the worldbuilding and story as well.
And...! If you do make fanart, please share with us here! I would absolutely love it!
apologies for the late reply , i had some pretty busy weeks :,)
and I’d be happy to share my thoughts!
i personally found the voice acting to be a great addition to the game - they fit the characters really well and are just a nice touch to have while playing through scenes or using abilities . the only qualm I really have is that at times , Miyetta and mykalis voice lines are a bit too quiet over the music . it makes it hard to understand what they’re saying during fights . besides that though , I’m all for including voice acting in any future projects !! ^^
I also finally got some fanart ready ! of course I had to draw my fav red flag lol .
Oooh I love it! These depictions of Jeth are so on point! Thank you so much for making time for these drawings and sharing~ And your comment on the voice acting is very helpful! I'll see if I can tweak Miyetta and Mikaylis voices. Hope you have some time to finally relax and enjoy yourself after having busy weeks. Best Wishes <3
Slight disclaimer that I have yet to play ADW so these are my thoughts on the experience going in blind! From my understanding this is a bit of a streamlined experience compared to ADW? I'm not sure how heavily it's recommended to play the ADW first, but I didn't have any trouble understanding anything and I really enjoyed it a LOT as a standalone experience!
I'm the kind of player to make a bee-line for/singularly focus on the character I'm interested in, so in my playthrough I think I managed to completely avoid playing toxic boyfriend simulator as Jeth was lovely LOL (at least for now-- I'm sure those dreams don't mean ANYTHING forboding at all! )
The battle mechanics were a lot of fun! I love seeing renpy being used for more advanced things and a whole dice battle system is really inspiring!
It took me a little while to understand the power of mono-colored teams and I was trying to play an overly complicated game of matching each unit in my team to their optimal counterpart which in some cases wasn't possible/contradicted other units (eg. (a certain) air rouge fighting against a team with an earth priest, but also a fire knight didn't always go so well) but the option to fail and try again gave me the room to experiment so it wasn't too stressful.
Highly recommended! I'll be waiting excitedly for the next update! And in the meantime I'll be making sure to play ADW and the other routes of VH! <333
Glad to hear you enjoyed everything so far. And I purposefully tried to make it so you don't have to play the original ADW to play this game. I'm really happy to hear that you enjoyed the combat system, as it's my first attempt doing something like this. I had hoped to make it something that would "add" to the story and characters. I hope you don't mind me linking to your fanart of Jeth because I love it so much! Ahh~ Thank you!
Great game and I very much appreciate that it's much faster paced over ADW in regards to reaching bond levels. Very useful for me when I had to reset because I didn't realise I had a select amount of time to raise loyalty for characters and ended up missing unrequired bond events.
Favourite character so far is Jeth the bad ender/the walking red flag because if I'm playing on the villain's team then I'm going for the most villainous of the three LIs! Not salty at all that he killed me twice because I wanted to be rebellious, or that he slashed me up/wanted to attack when I declined his advances because I wanted to check out Mikaylis and Deita. And hot damn does he know how to run hot and cold with the MC, when he's happy he's ecstatic and overly affectionate and when he isn't, well... What an utterly toxic piece of work - I love it. Absolutely looking forward to seeing what end I get with Jeth; I assume it will be morally terrible and I'm so into that. If it isn't as bad as I expect, well, I look forward to the surprise!
Btw, I noticed the slight design change on Deita! It's much more obvious that she's water compared to the original ADW with the multicoloured beads in her hair and on her collar. Still forming an opinion on her, she seems likable enough. For me at least, her personality isn't as strong as the other characters in the game, including the non LIs. I understand why, however. She's a good person stuck in an impossible situation, trying to survive now she's served her purpose, treading a fine line to be a good influence and not overreaching. It makes sense to me that she has to subdue herself and play the long game. Again, I look forward to seeing her endings now she's taking a more 'active' and stronger role at the end of the war prep.
Mikaylis seems sweet (compared to Jeth... which honestly is a terrible frame of reference for anyone). He's a bit needy but that's understandable. Maybe it's because I'm comparing him to the others in AVH but he doesn't seem that bad, like he's only there because he wants to support his sister and uphold the law. I was glad to see that he gets jealous when MC favours Jeth/goes to the forest because until then it seemed that he was too passive. I mean, he does admit that's how he wants to stand out but come on man, don't be a doormat!
I do miss that this doesn't have friend events but I do see why these are missing from both a technical and plot point of view. These characters are obsessive; capable of being suffocatingly possessive and cloyingly sweet depending on the favour shown by the MC that friendship simply doesn't/cannot satisfy their wants and desires. Also for you that's a hell of a lot more work and I don't blame you for giving that a hard nope.
Also, I have spelling corrections to give but you don't have an errors page here like ADW does so I wasn't sure what to do. I thought it would be best to ask, should I post them here or do you have a different different preference to receive them?
I haven't found everything (not that your work is riddled with mistakes!), and I only record them as and when I find them - and stopped when I reached the war prep for reasons I have since forgotten. Basically, I haven't been actively looking but would be happy to do so if you'd like/find helpful?
Thank you again for all of your feedback. I'm glad you are liking the changes and I plan on applying a lot of what I learned from this project to the original ADW once this is done. It's such a treat to read your insights on my characters. Glad you enjoyed Jeth's murdering and love bombing in stride. He's more irrevent than malicious anyway. I'm under the impression that you read several of the different dialogue choices? If so, it's nice to know someone is looking at the characters so thoroughly.
Please feel free to share the mistakes you found in whichever way is easiest for you. Either post here or email me at wulfmune@gmail.com
I do prefer to read as many dialogue choices as I can because they let me know 1. a little more about the character or 2. that the author isn't too interested in in variation in dialogue. It's always a treat for me when I see a different response but that is because I enjoy reading. So naturally I want to give my appreciation that you go to such lengths for your projects.
I will email you the list because of the length and I don't want to clog up the comments page here.
Hellloo, I finished playing the demo, and I have to say it was an enjoyable experience. I loved the fact that u made it easier to get bond levels. I don't really know how to feel about the villains but, I do like the fact that we learning more about the villains and what would've happened if the queen accepted us if she didn't throw us away lol. I can say with a firm heart that I now want to beat them all up except Deita she is a cinnamon roll we and Lor most protect her plus her skill op too. I did meet some bugs, after meeting the first boss and defeating him (i cri), his introduction dialogue came up again, Idk if its intentional but I also get a bond event with the water knight (saying we freed him). Am also excited to see what unfolds in the story of the baddies, I'm also curious if we will get a ending where we dethrone the queen with our chosen LI though I doubt the knight would do it but the other 2 would def. Thanks for making the game.
Hi Xzrono, thanks for checking out this side game! I'm glad you enjoyed the experience overall. I've been trying to recreate the bug you mentioned, but haven't been able to. I don't suppose you would be able to give me more details? Did the Mission Log tell you to report to the Queen after you defeated the first boss? Also I thank you for reporting the waterknight dialogue. (I tried to revise the bond chats from the original that wouldn't make sense but I guess I missed that one.)
Tried recreating the bug, but Im delusional couldnt proc it, I was probably seeing things sorry for making u go on a wild goose chase, but just to clarify I could still progress and talk to the queen but all I saw was him talking again after beating him so it was fine.
I finally finished playing the demo of Arcane Dice wars, and i LOVED IT, im so excited to play this one and meet jeth, i hope to see more of both of the games! have a good day :
hi Dam, thank you so much for giving my games a try and I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed ADW so far. I'm planning on finishing villains heart first since it's a shorter project and then going back to improve+expand ADW. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on this one as I think I've made some good improvements that I want to bring over to the original game. Best wishes!
This is not your usual Visual Novel Game. This is a work of art for any Python programmer. Map System + Room System + RPG System + Animations. I'm proud of how Wulfmune has improved. Much love!
wah! Thank you so much Zeil! I learned so much working with you in 2021 jam. I still fall back on messy solutions, so I can't really think of myself as a programmer, but I am super flattered by your comment <3 thanks again so much for checking out my work and best wishes!
i wasn't able to play the whole demo yet, but so far it has been such an amazing and extraordinary experience!! the art, writing, music, sounds and voices are all so well done. there's not a single thing i don't like about that game (maybe loosing hurts a little, but i'm just a sore loser lmao). english is not my first language, so i lack of words, but i really enjoyed playing it and i'm grateful that i was able to experience "A Villain's Heart". i will definitely come back for more, good luck!!<3
Thank you for your kind words T_T it really means a lot to me. I think I broke my brain in last couple weeks so your words healed me. Bless your heart. <3
Hi there, I am very sorry to hear you ran into this problem. I'm afraid that I've never run into this on Mac or PC. I tried looking for some solutions online based on the error message you have recieved.
The first thing to check is to see if you have permission to write to the folder where the save directory is location.
From here you can try these following solutions:
Try to see if there was an issue with the intial installment/directory:
1) Delete the Game Folder 2) Delete your saves they are usual in your /user/ folder 3) Re-Extract the game into a New Folder
Also found this solution of setting the path for the save files manually if you are using Windows.
Go to the folder where your game was extracted, right-click the ADWVillainsHeart.exe.exe file
Select "Send to->Desktop (Create Shortcut)". This will create a shortcut for the game in your Desktop.
Then, once created, right-click the shortcut, select Properties
Click the Shortcut tab
Then put the --savedir "{savepath}" directory in your directive after the target path in the Target field. For example, if you're saving it in the C:\GameSaves\ folder, you should add --savedir "C:\GameSaves" to it.
Run the game through the shortcut.
The game is long enough that I would not expect anyone to play it without saving ): I hope one of these solutions works for you. Thanks for trying out my game and feel free to write more details of the issue you are having if you want me to try and find more solutions.

I'm trying to run the game, but nothing is working. I tried re-downloading, extracting it differently. Nothing is working, anyone got any suggestions?
Hi Lady_Miyu I'm sorry it's not working for some reason. What type of OS are you using? PC(windows), MacOS or Linux? Are you getting any type of message?
Hi, I found a bug. The game crashes during the level 3 bonding chat with Water Priest and gives this error:
TypeError: %c requires int or char
Changing the “Seldom can anything be said with 100% certainty” line to “with absolute certainty” fixed the issue. It looks like the game doesn't understand that "% c" is a string of text.
Hi Itchiopizza,
Thank you again for taking the time to find, report and fix another bug! I'd like to put you in the credits as a a way of showing my appreciation. How would you like to be credited? If you don't have any preference, can I just put Itchiopizza ? Thank you again very much!
Sure, thanks! Itchiopizza is fine.
You did it! Congratulations for all your hard work! *high five*
and Thank you so much for all of your work finding my grammar errors everywhere! And thank you for the drawing! I love this depiction of Miyetta! Who doesn't love a tsundere Queen?
congratulations I have a good time playing this game. But is there any walkthrough? I have a little hard to to figuring out some ending
Hi there ursweetalks,
Thanks for giving my game a try and I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it so far, Here's a link to a quick quide I typed up. Let me know if you have any further questions. Some of the endings are just variations.

I'll (also) post it directly! Please consider this my argument for his route for anyone considering it hehe
Hello!
Great game and I very much appreciate that it's much faster paced over ADW in regards to reaching bond levels. Very useful for me when I had to reset because I didn't realise I had a select amount of time to raise loyalty for characters and ended up missing unrequired bond events.

Hi De'Gloughan,
Thank you again for all of your feedback. I'm glad you are liking the changes and I plan on applying a lot of what I learned from this project to the original ADW once this is done.

Tried recreating the bug, but Im delusional couldnt proc it, I was probably seeing things sorry for making u go on a wild goose chase, but just to clarify I could still progress and talk to the queen but all I saw was him talking again after beating him so it was fine.
I got the dialogue bug with the first boss too. It happens if you find all the clues before talking to him for the first time.
I think it happens because of this typo in the file dungeon_35:
if prisoner_clue4 == "resolve" (this should be "resolved" instead)
Oh thank you so much! You are 100% correct! I will add that to my list of fixes.
I finally finished playing the demo of Arcane Dice wars, and i LOVED IT, im so excited to play this one and meet jeth, i hope to see more of both of the games! have a good day :
hi Dam, thank you so much for giving my games a try and I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed ADW so far. I'm planning on finishing villains heart first since it's a shorter project and then going back to improve+expand ADW. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on this one as I think I've made some good improvements that I want to bring over to the original game. Best wishes!
This is not your usual Visual Novel Game. This is a work of art for any Python programmer. Map System + Room System + RPG System + Animations. I'm proud of how Wulfmune has improved. Much love!
wah! Thank you so much Zeil! I learned so much working with you in 2021 jam. I still fall back on messy solutions, so I can't really think of myself as a programmer, but I am super flattered by your comment <3 thanks again so much for checking out my work and best wishes!
i wasn't able to play the whole demo yet, but so far it has been such an amazing and extraordinary experience!! the art, writing, music, sounds and voices are all so well done. there's not a single thing i don't like about that game (maybe loosing hurts a little, but i'm just a sore loser lmao). english is not my first language, so i lack of words, but i really enjoyed playing it and i'm grateful that i was able to experience "A Villain's Heart". i will definitely come back for more, good luck!!<3
Thank you for your kind words T_T it really means a lot to me. I think I broke my brain in last couple weeks so your words healed me. Bless your heart. <3
hi! i just attempted to save and it says "an exception has occurred there are no valid save locations", otherwise the game looks really cool so far
Hi there, I am very sorry to hear you ran into this problem. I'm afraid that I've never run into this on Mac or PC. I tried looking for some solutions online based on the error message you have recieved.
The first thing to check is to see if you have permission to write to the folder where the save directory is location.
From here you can try these following solutions:
Try to see if there was an issue with the intial installment/directory:
1) Delete the Game Folder
2) Delete your saves they are usual in your /user/ folder
3) Re-Extract the game into a New Folder
4)Try making a new save file from the start.
It seems there was an issue with a Ren'Py game having issue in this thread which I don't know might also be a possible issue?https://itch.io/t/738641/no-valid-save-location
Also found this solution of setting the path for the save files manually if you are using Windows.
The game is long enough that I would not expect anyone to play it without saving ): I hope one of these solutions works for you. Thanks for trying out my game and feel free to write more details of the issue you are having if you want me to try and find more solutions.
First!
Thank you Zeil! <3<3<3 Good to see you and all the best wishes for you~
