(WIP) Path of Martial Arts: The Beginning (Dark, Eastern Fantasy | 1 000 000 words)

Seems some of the NSFW demos on the site have been under scrutiny as of late and so a lot of the discussions have been funneled to Discord.

I don’t think I understand what this means. Have some folks expressed displeasure with POMA for some reason? I haven’t heard of any of this.

Never, He Gang is immortal and transcends all.

Perhaps it’s the prince/princess, But he will be killed, though when no one knows. I just hope none of the immortals in the upper world kill him. LOL

It’s hasn’t, he took a break to work on jinlai (other wip) and now is back to writing POMA and frequently posts on patreon.

The author was working on update for his other game (Jinlai: Domineering CEO Simulator) so this one probably took a backseat for a while.

It hasn’t. Patreon gets updates pretty frequently right now and an update should come fairly soon if Nicky is to be believed.

The author is working on another update. It is coming soon. People on the Patreon know this. Which in turn means the public will get another update soon

Question: Is it possible that Question: Can we join the rebels but remain loyal to the Empire, only to betray Holan at the last moment? No, even this Butterfly Lady couldn’t intervene.

Word Count: + ~100k words. Total now should be around a million.

Story Progress:

  • Preparation for 3v3, which includes power-ups, lore reveals, and more.

  • Entire 3v3 (without post-reactions for now). Includes fights with both twins, one twin, Chu Muchen, variations depending on He Gang, Yuan Fang and other factors. These fights are absolutely massive word count wise, though a lot of it is in different branches, failed checks and so on, so it may feel shorter.

Not to be rude but Nicky is very straight originated snd doesn’t know how to write female focused romance. This is not hate but just criticism on the authors weak points, sadly both games seems to be focused on male audiences thus female fans will be left with basically nothing or just few tokens characters with no real romances

This may be a surprising concept to some, but straight romance is already a “female focused romance” (in half) given it involves a man and a woman. So as long as one talks with their romantic partners and/or pays attention to how they handle their end of said romance so to speak, that’s plenty of experience to draw from.

(there is also plenty of romance book written by women and from female POV, if one actually wants to make effort to get extra perspective)

Has the free demo actually been updated? On itch it still shows 884k words with no recent updates.

That’s the text description on web site, but both the online and downloadable version of the game shows 0.30 on the starting page, which is supposed to be the most recent public release. So, signs point to yes.
