You need to find him in the forest! If you reach the big pool of green slime, you've gone too far.
Or if you're later in the game and he's in the river, you need to jump across the stepping stones and avoid the plants. Wait for them to go beneath the water.
I've been following the game for a while now and I just wanna say the juxtaposition of absolutely wholesome dragon moments at homebase against all the lewd, mind-corrupting monsters everywhere else is getting pretty funny.
I hope you'll keep adding to all the wonderful character and interactivity at homebase, because it's really endearing and puts GROVE above a lot of similar NSFW games in my opinion.
Thank you! We're really glad this strange contrast of attitudes is something that a lot of folks find endearing and interesting. It's something we find fun to work on ourselves.
So there'll be more of that in the future for sure, and hopefully people will continue to find it enjoyable and interesting and make the home base a relaxing place to come back to repeatedly.
I don't know how to unlock the cutscene that says [You find yourself entering a western path... and pestering a newcomer and his tent. Suddenly, your corruption flares up...]
Not this tent. It's in the area on the left of the inn. There should be a plate with a banana next to the tent (or at least close to it, if I remember correctly)
It's the bottom-right tent, but it ONLY appears for a limited time period.
The time period begins after you replace the lever and cross the bridge to the Northern Settlement, and the time period ends after you complete the "orange assignment" quest.
I've just finished the bandits camp and explored the starting area across the bridge after placing the lever in and lowering the bridge. I reached the bed rest across the initial introduction to where the desert will start. Tuon(blacksmith) has left me and returned back to the general camp. Commander of the Auxillary Division has appeared. I talked to him but didn't receive the armour to be able to enter the desert. I've talked to the wizard and blacksmith again and again so I don't know what I'm missing? The armour also isn't showing in my armoury. Please help I want to progress ;-;
Have you return from the place at the start of the game? there is a path down that leads to the jungle and had a quest there took me a bit to find it on my own but you just go back to the starting campsite and head down then to the and keep going to the ruins then go right.
From the front door of the Inn, walk ALL the way down to the bottom, then walk all the way to the left until you reach the cliffside. There's a new path heading downwards, and that's how to progress.
Also, you equip armour from the wardrobe in your room at the inn!
1.) Is this game still being developed? Saw the Dev was working on a new game (Prowler) and wondering if I should stop holding my breath. Hope not. Really like Grove so far.
2.) Is there any way moving forward that the sex wouldn't be a punishment for the player? I feel like I'm being punished for getting better at the game as I go along. Grove is actually better than most Adult games in this regard with the grapple system, but I would love to go "further" without "failing", you know?
This game is still being developed, yes! We're jumping between Prowler and Grove, and we've learned a lot of things that can help improve Grove through developing Prowler. We do hope you'll give Prowler a try when the update comes out though, if only to see what mechanics and things you might enjoy and so we can get a sense of the things to bring across to Grove.
As for sex being less of a punishment for the player, we understand what you mean and it's what stirred the initial idea of our grapple system. As for more ways... we have some ideas, but making them work with Grove's actual character and personality, and trying not to like... double our workload are considerations too. But at the very least I can say it's something we definitely do think about!
It's great to hear this game is still in development. And I understand the second bit might have been asking for more than I should. You've already done a great job with it.
Loved the game so much and impatiently waiting for the continuation! I got one question tho, when I have finished the game and unlocked the gallery, are all the chests that contain scenes should be "unlocked"? Some chests don't show me scenes but show sayings that I think are hints where I can find them. Is that so or it's just incompleted scenes? Thank you.
The chests with hints can be unlocked, their scenes are complete! You need to find them in the main game using the hints. You can use older saves to go back and get them if you need to.
I am in a location Slug cave - the underworld . On the quest “lost and found.”
I have examined the chest and armor. In both cases defeated the purple dragons. Approached the plants on the right side of the map. And tried to beat them, but no results.
I finished playing GROVE (with a taste for more) yesterday and I have to say at the moment I loved every piece of content it offers, I'm really looking forward to seeing this finished work.
Keep up the good work and take your time, good things must have their development time.
Thanks very much for both the encouragement and the patience! It's greatly appreciated, and we're super glad you enjoyed the content as much as you did!
Hoi Hoi, I had a question. So I’m making my own rpg with a lust system in it too. I was wondering how I would put it into my game. I’m making it as an rpg. I’m using rpg maker mz.
Mostly asking the grove developers since it looks like they use rpg maker
Heya, not sure what you mean by lust system, the term is quite vague and Grove doesn’t really have a ‘proper’ lust system
One way is to just use one variable to control lust and another to set the lust maximum cap. When increasing lust have a conditional to check if the current lust is higher than the cap or specific thresholds and if yes, apply your effects.
oh I meant like how grove gets aroused during certain battles. Like the dream sequence. And ok how would I go about making the variables. Or if you want I can look up how to make those in rpg maker.
Thank you for the offer. There's a lot of writing in the game so it's a big task, but if you want to give it a try, have a look into "translator++" software.
Thanks for playing our game! We're glad you enjoyed it so thoroughly!
For making translations, you'll need software like translator++. You should know there's a LOT of writing in the game though so don't feel obligated to try if it's overwhelming.
absolutly amazing game and so much fun but I'm having real problem with the jumping stones in the jungle areas I can't seem to consistently jump over the plants am I missing a trick here or is it just a skill issue?

would be funny if it turns out to be a furry Fear and Hunger like game (never played it yet, obviously, writing this comment)
Silly little question but how do I rescue Kuno? Am I Dumb?

I don't know how to unlock the cutscene that says [You find yourself entering a western path... and pestering a newcomer and his tent. Suddenly, your corruption flares up...]
Can you tell me if that's okay?
You need to have 10 Corruption points. When you do, repeatedly try and enter the Auxiliary Commander's tent.
Not this tent. It's in the area on the left of the inn. There should be a plate with a banana next to the tent (or at least close to it, if I remember correctly)
Do you have any of these?
It's the bottom-right tent, but it ONLY appears for a limited time period.

Yeah i was running around for like 40 mins going to each location thinking i missed an interaction or chest. Thank you!!!

Thank youuu >~> I got to the jungle location now. Literal lifesavers!!!
Just finished everything I could in .308
Was kind of wondering two things:
1.) Is this game still being developed? Saw the Dev was working on a new game (Prowler) and wondering if I should stop holding my breath. Hope not. Really like Grove so far.
2.) Is there any way moving forward that the sex wouldn't be a punishment for the player? I feel like I'm being punished for getting better at the game as I go along. Grove is actually better than most Adult games in this regard with the grapple system, but I would love to go "further" without "failing", you know?

I'll have to give prowler a try.

Good luck with going for 100%!
Room for future expansion.
I have examined the chest and armor. In both cases defeated the purple dragons. Approached the plants on the right side of the map. And tried to beat them, but no results.
Can you please tell me what to do next?
You need to approach the pile of wood on the left. You'll make an item, which can then be used to pass the plants on the right.

If you need someone to help translating this game to Korean I’d be happy to help! I’d love to see this game in my language~
Thank you for the offer. There's a lot of writing in the game so it's a big task, but if you want to give it a try, have a look into "translator++" software.
Adding slimes that force themselves down your gullet and slowly corrupt you from the inside out would be pretty cool
Just recently playing it and ohmygod I love it, like seriously! Well crafted, easy to understand combat system, niche kinks, and graphics are 10/10 :)
And whilst playing it I was thinking, can I make cz language version? If so, how should I start?
Thanks for playing our game! We're glad you enjoyed it so thoroughly!

There's a trick to it. Just observe the plants. See how they move up and down? You need to jump when they're down, under the water.
Hope that helps you progress and continue to enjoy our game!
