v0.12 is planned for release in about a week! I'm aiming to have it ready before the end of this month, but it could slip into the first week of June due to the addition of a new ending scene and some recent personal events that set me back a few days.


This update adds 6 new story sex scenes (three for male MC, three for female MC).

I'd like to include more training scenes for Valerie in v0.12, but since the update has already taken longer than expected, there's a chance these might get pushed to the next version. The training system will also see a more substantial overhaul in v0.14 and v0.15.


You'll likely notice an improvement in render quality in this update. I've been experimenting with more cinematic styles of lighting, and I think the result is quite nice overall.

Since Act 3 has a darker tone than previous story arcs, I wanted the visuals to better reflect this in certain scenes. Over time, the game's visual style should evolve even further.


Once v0.12 is out, my goal is to release the next update several weeks sooner so that I can complete Act 3 (and get started on Act 4) before the end of the year.

Thank you for reading this dev update. I'm very happy with the way v0.12 is turning out, and I hope you'll enjoy playing it!

v0.12 is now about 75% complete! It will be released in May, hopefully in a couple of weeks, but possibly towards the end of the month.

I was originally aiming for a late April release, but I felt it was more important to focus on the quality and length of content.


This update has significantly expanded in scope and size. The first in-game day of v0.13 has been added to v0.12, which includes the Rena date, her second set of sex scenes, and several other key moments in between.

Similar to the cottage sex scene, Rena's second sex scene will be more romantic in nature. I've also moved its placement from morning to night, as I felt this would give the scene much more emotional weight and meaning.


A new side heroine briefly appears in this update. She will play an important role in the story of Act 4, and your choices in a previous story arc will also affect your relationship with her.

Between Valerie, Rena, and Ann as the main heroines, and Mira, Ellania, and this new character as the side heroines, I feel there's now a solid cast of love interests. Aside from these six, there will of course be plenty of other women the MC can have flings or one-night stands with.


If you allowed Valerie to play with women (either the open-harem or sharing routes), there will be a special scene where Annestria recounts a recent encounter with Valerie.

In the future, you will have the option of letting the two girls get more intimate with each other. For this update, though, the MC will have the honors of making love to Ann first.

From v0.13, we'll be entering the second and more dramatic half of Act 3, where the game's slow build-up finally brings the story and its themes together.

Thank you for reading this dev update. I hope you will enjoy playing v0.12 when it releases next month. I'll be posting one final dev update for v0.12 as the release approaches.

v0.12 is now over halfway complete! It's currently planned for release by the end of this month, although there's a chance it could slip into early May, depending on bugs or if extra content gets added.


In this update, you'll be able to ask Valerie a number of personal questions. For example, how do succubi give birth? Do succubi view humans as equals, or merely a source of energy? Can they survive on just food, and what happens if they go without sex for too long?

Even more importantly, Valerie and the protagonist will discuss their plans for the future. After all, their quest could eventually lead them outside Rothagen— and into lands further beyond.

Of course, if you aren't interested in these bits of succubi lore, you can choose to end the conversation at any time.


If you've been looking forward to more Rena content, you're in luck. The protagonist and Rena will go out for a date while Valerie works an early shift. This scene plays a big role in the overall story, but it is also a great chance to deepen your bonds with your witch friend.

The Rena date was originally planned for v0.13, but I felt it was a better fit for this update. Depending on time available, I may also include the second Rena sex scene, which otherwise is scheduled for v0.13.


The protagonist seeks out Captain Gerard for details about the recent attacks. As a result of Oruth's downfall, the Captain also reveals some big changes to Rothagen. While this conversation provides some closure, your actions at the end of Act 2 will still play a major role in the events of Act 4.

For players on the Sharing Route, there will also be some spicy new content in v0.12. I'll have more to share regarding this soon.

As always, thank you for reading this dev update and for supporting Rebel Duet. I hope you look forward to playing v0.12.

The next major update (v0.12) is now approximately 30-35% complete! You can expect to play v0.12 sometime in April.

I've decided to adjust the order of some events for the next few updates. Previously, I planned for the flashback of the protagonist's past to be the main focus of v0.12, but I felt this would be a better fit for later in Act 3. Instead, the next two updates will continue to focus on the romance, adult content, and vampire storyline— much like v0.11.


Your cute elf friend - Annestria - will come to visit again in this update. This time, however, you and Ann will be alone at home.

Now that your relationship with her has taken a romantic turn, you'll have the choice to make love to Ann in your bedroom. Of course, if you'd prefer to save this special moment for later on (or otherwise wish to just stay friends), you can hold back in this scene and pursue her at a later time.


Ann's sister, Ellania, has fully recovered and will now start appearing more frequently in the story.

I've decided to give Ellania shorter hair to help distinguish her from Ann. Though she isn't a main heroine like Ann, there will be a few sex scenes with her later in the story, including some threesome fun with the two elven sisters.


Meanwhile, the vampire threat in Rothagen is brewing in the shadows, and the player will set out to cautiously investigate their encounter with the monster. Be careful, though, because investigating too deeply at this stage could have deadly consequences.

The v0.11b patch, which includes new training scenes and minor improvements, will now be combined with the v0.12 release. This is mainly due to some personal events which made releasing a smaller patch a bit tricky. My apologies for the slight change in plans.

Thank you for reading this dev update, and for supporting Rebel Duet! The next dev update will be posted in 2-3 weeks. I hope you look forward to it.
