Played through the prologue with Beelzebub and I like what's offered so far.
I'm not sure if I like how the save system works, however. I'm used to them asking for confirmation which does prevent me from making accidentally overwriting saves often in other games. Perhaps implementing that kind of safety feature would prevent accidentally overwriting any crucial saves.
This game is the sole reason I've got an itch.io account, I was just browsing, saw this and picked it up as something to pass the time, I am now fully invested in this game, the story and world is really good like unholy shit I love this, the writing is on point and all the story lines mesh well, the jokes are funny and overall an awesome game (judgement, justice and modeus are the best ones, fight me)
I would love with all my heart to see a Spanish translation come out, I've been following the project for two years now, and I can only say that it's great to see how it improves every day.
Russian Russian version 0.4 of the game was in Russian and it was great, I'm waiting for the same about 0.41. The only question is, will the game be officially translated into Russian?
Needed to ask, for anyone out there: how much does the Beelzebub stuff change the story? Is it something I should do separately or can it run along the main story without too much alteration?
Holy shit, i just finished it to the part its done, but damn i am so amazed by it. It truly is a glories piece of art, there are so many things i want to say but i am gramatikly handycapped. Its so well made and i am so eager to see how this will continue. Its amazing, keep up the good work and thank the lord or deamons that i found this its truelly a blessing.
I just decided to pick this up on a whim after hearing about it on the Helltaker subreddit for a while now and I regret not downloading it sooner. Didn't think it was possible for me to love these characters more than I already did, and the new additions to the cast fit so well. I was so sad when I got to the end and saw the credits cause I got so invested into everything. Really hope to see more soon! Fully gonna support this
Amazing game. Captivating story, well-written, only discontentment is with the gym part with Justice. Other than that one thing, I have spent the past 3 days with this being the highlight of each. 10/10, can't wait for the next story updates.
unironically, this was quite the fun experience,i specially enjoyed the pandemonica and cerberus stories. i dont think i can say anything that other reviews haven't said already, its well written, the cgs are good. and i really enjoyed the new characters. conclusion: game good, also doge
Bro why did you take down the previous Version's im going crazy how bad i want to play it.i just played your current version 0.40 it was Great as always but i want to get to the beginning of it all can you guys maybe please bring it back for people who just recently played your game.i love your games by the way especially the new Version
This was an amazing experience, I enjoyed every moment of it. Bonding with all of the girls, learning more about them felt so great. And I loved the additions to the story with the four lords. This was just such a great experience, and I never even considered the possibility that it was only a demo, it was amazing. And the ending (the ending that there is now, anyways) had me in tears, it was so well written. I loved it, I loved every second of this experience, and thank you for bringing this to us all
Thoroughly enjoying the story so far. If it isn't too big an ask, as I know you're all busy, will future releases for Windows all be baked into one .exe file each? I'd like to replace some of the music with my own on my own time.
What game engine do you use on this game? because for some reason I can't run Ren'Py engine so that'll be a real shame if I downloaded the game but can't even play this amazing game.
Hello, do i need any extra libraries to execute this in mint?, i got the linux version and set the file to be able to execute, but nothing is happening.
Unfortunately, I can be of very little assistance when it comes to issues with the Linux version. It was tested and proven to work on Ubuntu, and that's all I can really say.
I see, can somebody else help with this matter then?, mint cinnamon is similar to ubuntu in many ways, the problem i am having is that i have nothing that can understand how to run the main file here, there is no extension or association to begin with, it is just a file named ¨The Second Circle- A HellTaker Fangame¨
I loved this game, the story, the dialogue, the story. All of it was so well made and thought out. I would love to see the full release of this game and can't wait to see what comes next.
Assuming you have booted the game on linux. You have to go to the properties of the second circle file that is 145k kilobytes and allow it to be excecated as a program. Then it can be run.
The screenshot you provided seems to show that you are running the game on a Windows Machine. If that's the case, you should get the windows version. If you are running it on a Linux machine, then yes, you open the file properties and tick the checkbox labeled "allow executing of file as program."
Just to inform you so it may help, my laptop's brand is LENOVO and it wasn't able to run the Windows version also I cant find the checkbox in the properties of the Linux file, should I send a screen shot of the properties of it? (also I am so sorry for troubling you with this)
This game is MF amazing, its rly well made and i hope the creator keeps working on it because so far its my favourite game lmao. dont stop team 133 u doing great lol
Played through this for the first time this week just finished the third round of dates. I must say I am very happy and impressed with how the characters are being fleshed out and given more character and are each so interesting in their own ways, I loved every minute of it.
The stories seem well written and there has definitely been some thought put into them but I do have some critiques which I am certain will be addressed as the game progresses; beginning with the order, the later rounds indicate a crossing between the other routes even when a mentioned route may not have been experienced yet, this mainly concerns the routes of Zdrada, Cerberus, and of course Lucy, and to a lesser degree Malina and Justice, due to the nature of the game allowing you to any demon in any order the implied order when doing some routes can be confusing, I'm sure this will be cleaned up in later version but the end screen after completing the demo mentioned to comment here and wanted to write my thoughts.
Aside from a few spelling mistakes the implied order to the story is my only and main concern. Keep up the good work and I think any fan of helltaker should give this game a shot, it's wonderful :D
Edit: I noticed that there is a listing for CG's related to Beelzebub in the CG menu but never figured out how to interact with her, is she a secret route or unimplemented?
To get beelzebubs dates you need to click the fridge when first opening the game to clean in when Lucy tells you too it will give you the option to clean it say yes and it will trigger her first date - Her second date is triggered after Lucy's first date where you wake up and pandemonica and Cerberus are at your door instead of answering your door click on your closet Walter will greet you and bring you into the second date - the third date is trigged with the requirement of having the second date finished in a play through on Lucy's third date she will give the player an option to ask her a question about 1 Cerberus 2 if date has been finished Beelzebub and I won't spoil any more.
I've been playing this game ever since the first date and I have to say, I LOVE the progression. The dates, while not only longer, are managing to make me personally invested in these arcs and the new characters thrown in. Sometimes the best stories are ones that make you delve into someone's deepest emotions. My friend and I have the same opinion that it is a travesty that this isn't canon, because it's simply amazing. If you're having any doubts, let me give you some advice. If you're interested in Helltaker in ANY WAY, play this game. Sure, it's reading heavy, but it's what you expect from a visual novel, right? Absolutely worth it. Making this free is an insanely awesome thing, seeing as they could easily charge a solid 15$ per copy.
TL;DR: Awesome game and fully worth it if you like Helltaker.

Just started playing this game, deeply impressed by it. The comments below are making me a bit nervous but im holding out hope for an update!
Is this project still alive ?
pleeeeeeeeease I legit cannot get this VN out of my head >.<
I am so ready for the fourth chapter, we're coming up on the one-year anniversary since the third dates have been added.
I suppose in celebration I'll play through the game again :p

pleeeeeeease I'm so ready for the 4th chapterr

I love the game and the story so much and just wondering when the next big update will come out with more story. Keep up the hard work

Hello, I wanted to ask whether the game will be released on android yes or no!
my pc says it is not safe to open the game
It is normal?
Its A-Okay to play. My pc say that too the first time, but just try to run it and its all good to go
Hehehe, dog.
unironically, this was quite the fun experience,i specially enjoyed the pandemonica and cerberus stories. i dont think i can say anything that other reviews haven't said already, its well written, the cgs are good. and i really enjoyed the new characters. conclusion: game good, also doge
Hi, just wanted to know if this is made in Ren'py
It is not. It is made with TyranoBuilder.
thank you
Bro why did you take down the previous Version's im going crazy how bad i want to play it.i just played your current version 0.40 it was Great as always but i want to get to the beginning of it all can you guys maybe please bring it back for people who just recently played your game.i love your games by the way especially the new Version
All of the content of the previous versions is in the new version. The only major difference is some remastered art.
This was an amazing experience, I enjoyed every moment of it. Bonding with all of the girls, learning more about them felt so great. And I loved the additions to the story with the four lords. This was just such a great experience, and I never even considered the possibility that it was only a demo, it was amazing.

can we get this on android?
is it possible to get the source code of SC?
according to him, it needs to be thrown onto the engine, he says that this is the only way he knows
my friend wants to translate the game into Russian
(if there were mistakes, I'm sorry, Google translator is not the best)
Thoroughly enjoying the story so far. If it isn't too big an ask, as I know you're all busy, will future releases for Windows all be baked into one .exe file each? I'd like to replace some of the music with my own on my own time.
Great Game excited to see where is goes
good game but am I dating the girls or giving therapy to them?
Kinda of both it seems like, except Justice of course
Excuse me friend and it will be that you can get it to the Spanish language
Translations will begin to be considered once we have finalized all of the dates.
What game engine do you use on this game? because for some reason I can't run Ren'Py engine so that'll be a real shame if I downloaded the game but can't even play this amazing game.
its tyranobuilder
Nice, its not Ren'Py so I should be able to play it... at least I hope so
Will this game be ported to android?
It's a possibility for the future, but right now, no.

Hello, may I ask for some assistance for this it is the Linux download and I cannot find a way to boot up the game
Can any of the developers help me with this please? The Linux download file does not have an Application File that would start the game for me
Assuming you have booted the game on linux. You have to go to the properties of the second circle file that is 145k kilobytes and allow it to be excecated as a program. Then it can be run.
Okay so, I've opened the 145K file's properties, do I need to look into 'Security' to give access to it?
The screenshot you provided seems to show that you are running the game on a Windows Machine. If that's the case, you should get the windows version. If you are running it on a Linux machine, then yes, you open the file properties and tick the checkbox labeled "allow executing of file as program."

Hello, I was wondering if the choices will change the story, like will their be multiple endings or something like that.
