Rise of the White Flower
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
Warning: This game has adult content and is meant for 18+. 
Follow the story of Catherine Belrose, a commoner that has just graduated from the Academy of Magic in the capital of the Empire. While her training has made her into an elite in the Empire, studying in a school meant for nobles has left her with a soul-crushing debt to repay.
Knowing that the only way she can get as much cash as she needs is by joining the Adventurers Guild, an organization that employs mercenaries to deal with the ever-present threat of monsters, she does just that. But, there are those that do not want to see her succeed, and she is going to have to work hard for everything she aims to achieve.
Guide Catherine in this epic quest, join forces with dozens of like-minded adventurers and embark on many adventures in a world filled with magic. And while you are at it, discover how deeply the corruption runs in the heart of the empire, discover the secrets of the world of Valarien and it's rich history, uncover dark secrets better left buried in the sands of time, and pursue romance, or just casual sex, with the many companions that will join Catherine on her journey.
Will Catherine be able to pay off her student loan? Or will she fail and become a slave? It is up to you!
The game is still in development and you can support us on Patreon to get access to new builds earlier and actively participate on some of the development choices. Your support is also going to help us to keep improving and expanding the game!

Android cant download
The characters and the story are amazing and very interesting, especially Catherine, without a doubt one of the best visual novels. Great job :)
Thank you so much! Glad to hear you're enjoying it!
Wont work for android newer phone will it ever work ?
any idea why when i am installing the app, it redirect me to the microsoft store, but not like installing the app as usual
That's weird. I don't really know what's going on.
is alright now, I have fixed my computer at last, thanks for the reply

I'm getting a "No compatible downloads found" when installing through itch
Me too
Working now, I do skip releases if they aren't available on Itch as I use the app's sandboxing, so if it won't install through Itch I'll just hold off rather than messing with sandboxing it myself.
I've been up all night practically on the game, and Jean has suddenly turned female I wanted to ask if he will ever be male again. there's a lot of female characters in the game you can romance and I was enjoying his character and I wanted to know.
It was not in the plans but a route where Jean is not transformed is something I have been considering lately. It won't be implemented until we're essentially ready to release the game as it's something that will have to be implemented along a massive final editing undertaking that we want to do, but we might eventually add this.
Why does the android version work? Keeps saying the download is invalid or trys to install it with package installer then just stays blank and does nothing. Even the one on fnation doesn't work
Meant to say not work but I found a fix. Unfortunately the parallel app crashes every 15 to 20 minutes so I can't really enjoy the game to much tbh 🫤
Basically Android is cracking down on third party apps. It still works on older versions of Android, but 10 and above it doesn't. There's really nothing I can do about it.
I get it. And thanks for actually taking the time to respond. That's actually kinda rare but thanks 🙏
Simple question of you use parrarell space does it have bug? :>
Basically Android is cracking down on third party apps. It still works on older versions of Android, but 10 and above it doesn't without parallel space. There's really nothing I can do about it.
The APK file is corrupt
I updated it again, try it now.
still can't be installed :<

Having so much fun playing this, I love all the characters (tho Victor and Marius my loves <3) Speaking of which
SPOILERS (sort of just for Marius romance)
Whenever we accept Marius' proposal, are we locked out of future sex scenes for different characters? I love him so much he is indeed my future husband but I still wanna be with the other characters sexually :(( if not them that's alright, Marius forever <3 just curious tho!
Marius is one of the monagamous routes, so — at present — starting his romance route blocks you out of most other sex scenes.
Oooh okay, I see. Thank you! One more question if you don't mind, but if I rejected his proposal yet still maintained a relationship with him as a lover, will I have the opportunity to romance him later, or is that the only time I can lock in to his romance? Thank you for your help, btw! :))
As of now that's the only chance. I might add something at the end of the story where if you are not romancing anyone you get the opportunity to tie the knot with someone, but that's a maybe. For now I'd recommend just keeping multiple saves.
Okay, thank you so much for your help! :))
Love the story!
More Catherine x Lena pls
Glad to hear you enjoyed it!
And don't, everyone's favorite murder elf is definitely getting more screen time.
Man, what a game!
Art: Top notch
Story: Peak
Small bug report, but idk if it's a ME thing
Ver Ch11 0.12.0d.
Bug (As spoiler free as I can):
After you perform a certain heroic action and are granted a meeting with a certain someone, Eleanor gets access to her Knight Outfit. It unlocks without issue, equips without issue.
HOWEVER, as soon as I quit the game, the outfit is locked again, and she's back to her default outfit. The "unlock outfits" doesn't work, and idk why.
Have a great day :3
Hey, glad to hear you enjoyed it! And thank you for the bug report, I'll see what's going on with that.
Will version 0.12.0 not be on android?
Oh! It's there, I had updated the link but forgot to update the label.
Quick question! I want to know that how many characters I can choose to romance with? Victor, Eleanor, Khai, Briwala, Lena, Yda, Marius.. Are them all now? Or Did I miss anyone? Hope I can romance more charcters! Really Enjoy the game!(by the way, I love Khai! What a lovely cat boy!Consider having more Nazurs boys or girls? )
We're glad to hear you enjoyed the game!
You can romance: Eleanor, Victor, Amelie, Khai, Briwala, Lena, Marius, Seralli, Yda, and Evelyn. There will be more that will be added at a later date, but those are the ones we have right now, ah but Amelie's has just been added on the latest version on patreon se it will take a little bit to get here.
Khai's twin sister eventually enters the story, and you can meet another Nazurian based on a decision you make later in the game.
Wonderful! Thanks for your reply!
Great game, man! Keep up the excellent work ^__^
Thank you so much! <3
a game about playing as her befor this, like her life in the academy would be amazing! just throwing it out there.
That's a cool idea but we really want to move on to new characters and stories after we finish this game rather than doing a prologue.
no matter what i do it gets stuck on a black screen. idk if its something to do with android or what.
If it's like this what should I do?
You've reached the end of the current content. There's nothing else to do, unless you want to start a new playthrough.
Are there Female Orcs in this Game ?.
There is one that shows up later in the game, sadly she's without a sex scene at the moment.
To Dev: Just a little note. When you open things like the journal you included, using the mouse scroll feature for it simultaneously rolls back the game along with the journal. Might want to find a way to block that from happening when you have menus open. Otherwise seems not bad from the start.
After playing for a bit. I have to say its quite interesting. Its better than a lot of the run-of-the-mill stuff on itch.
I like some of the humor. You got me with trying to get Eleanor into bed, and with the way she drinks bit. lol...
Anyway, good direction your taking this. Would love to see some frisky options with the Kolbolds. A way for the MC to make real nice with them. Maybe pregnancy option with it, but that's just one of my fetishes.
Thank you! Glad to hear you're enjoying it! But I don't think we'll have any kobold content anytime soon.
Never hurts to suggest.
The Android version keeps saying that due to upgrades in Android, this game is unable to play. How to fix that ?
Android is clamping down on third party software in the name of security. Because we are not making the game natively, newer versions do not give us permission to create files, which means we can't get the game to save. You can bypass that by opening the game through an app called Parallel Space though.
Ive been trying to play this game for like an hour haha but every time i try to start a new game its a black screen with what Im guessing is the opening dialogue and I cant move past it. I can go to settings and hiding the dialouge works. Im on mac.
Sorry, I never owned a mac so I'm not too familiar with it. The only thing I can think off that's causing the issue is the game being unable to save. The game autosaves at every new panel, so if it can't save it will just freeze on the first screen. On windows I would tell you to run as administrator, I'm not too sure what's the equivalent on a mac.
This game is the most enjoyable game i have so far, i loved victor the ture himself was a demon and god i love being a sub for him
We're glad to hear you're enjoying it!
This game's fantastic. Good mix of porn and story. I'd personally love to see more of Catherine being subby in bed (but a queen outside).
Thanks! Glad to hear you enjoyed our game. =D
As for subby Catherine, Evelyn's, Yda's, and Victor's (optional) route have plenty of sub Catherine.
Oh yeah the Evelyn and Yda routes are fanastic! Absolutely loved it.
Are there any more plans for Kyo or Eleanor to dom catherine?
came for the porn, stayed for the story, came for the porn.
seriously though, the story in this is actually amazing. i feel like at this point i shouldn't be so surprised by porn/erotica games having amazing stories, but im not complaining. im thoroughly hooked on the story and i'm eager to see more of it. 10/10 game
Sorry, can't resist to comment. 1st line should read....
Came for the porn, stayed for the story, came "from" the porn. lol....
Thinking of trying this game... seems interesting.
just got version 0.11.3 after not playing since chapter 6, but i've been having a glitch on a fresh save where i can't progress past the first quest with eleanor since no new scenes pop up
it's not a glitch, I did things differently back in the day. After Eleanor's scene you have to raw visit the tavern (without any events appearing), you will find Eleanor there with a bunch of dialogue options. I belive the option that triggers the next quest is to ask her about the Emperor.
oh i see! sorry about that, thank you for your reply!!<3
No worries!
This game has the perfect amount of horniness and story that just makes my brain go gaga. What I'm trying to say is, the game's frickin amazing.
Thank you! Really happy to hear you enjoyed it!
How do I keep Jean from becoming JEANNE?
You can't.
Jeanne is a total upgrade
android 11 can play this but play it on parallel space
I've tried opening it through Parallel Space but when I start new game it's a black screen with the UI.
Am I doing something wrong or is my phone just not good enough? 😂 (it is rather old now)
try install the add ons...something called parallel space 64-bit support
Thanks. I did all that, but still just black screen except UI.
I'm going to presume it's my phone. It's a Note 9, and I believe they were top of the range in 1974, so not surprised I'm having issues.
Update 0.11.0.b cannot be downloaded with the itch app, the version selection stays blank
I'm unfamiliar with the itch app, but I haven't done anything different than usual when uploading the files. Although, if you're refering to the android version, perhaps it is because the file went beyond 1 GB? I'll look into it.
Why doesn't the android version work?
Android is clamping down on third party software in the name of security. Because we are not making the game natively, newer versions do not give us permission to create files, which means we can't get the game to save. You can bypass that by opening the game through an app called Parallel Space though.
omg the game is going in such a great direction! I'm kinda sad that the whole inventory and chemistry placeholders were dumped, but I guess the devs were biting more than they could chew with that one. The story is going great and I love the extra scenes for each romance (though I only experienced Lena). I hope at some point they add the scenes of the characters telling you you've done everything on this version as part of the gallery or something, I missed them for quite a few updates and they're funny
edit: typo
Glad to hear you are enjoying it!
And the ending scenes have been giving me some trouble but I'll try to get them going once more.
that's great news! thanks for replying!
Other than the plot sequence there are no personal scenes. I was kind of trying to romance Viktor, so I have no other romance locked in, but shouldn't the threesome with Jeanne and Ellie show up at least? I just kinda read the dwarven village in a summary and then it's already the end with looking at the northern lights? Maybe I'm spoiled but it feels like something is missing.
I'm not complaining, the story is amazing, but if there's something that doesn't work it'd be a shame. I started from an old safe file, though that shouldn't be an issue?
Huh... I don't belive there's any Jeanne and Eleanor threesome? Do you mean the interlude scenes between the big events?
Also, we've added Marius romance in the latest release, and now we're working on Briwala's. Victor is likely going to be the next one.
no the vamp lady...............whose name is Evelyn? I'm sorry, I'm really bad with names, esp similar ones. but yeah. the interlude went by really fast with just some text about the dwarves unwilling to really cooperate and no romance, but if Viktor isn't implemented yet it's probably that. it felt a little weird to go a full new update with no sex scene at all. I do really like the story elements though, it never gets boring and still all fits into the world lore without feeling tagged on. Thanks for answering!
Yeah, because we're in the endgame now I have been giving a lot of attention to the story. We are having a release every now and again without sex scene because the action scenes require our artist's full attention, and we try to have a release every three weeks. But when I implement Victor's romance I'll add it like it started earlier and add extra scenes for him.
💕 I'm very much looking forward to replaying it all then and will just go the harlot route until then! Good health and energy levels, may the muses be with you guys!
Thank you! We appreciate the vibes!
Hey man I'm an android player i use the parallel space app to run the game it works like a charm but please add chapter selection in the game because each time I uninstall and reinstalled after each update the saves would just vanish and I have to play from the start again and also please add a skip dialogue button for Android. I'll be very grateful if these features are added in game.
Thank you.
Chapter selection is difficult to implement due to the volume of options that each chapter has. But I can work a skip dialogue button in.
Android version not working for anyone else?
The Unity whole thing is a stupid mess of corporate greed. It's not the only engine out there but damn, is sad nonetheless to see so many content creators, from the most beautiful and sexy visual novel to the exquisite and very well done masterpieces like Cuphead. Truly a shame. Hope you guys don't get affected by it
Thank you for the concern. We are quite disapointed in the direction Unity has been going and are probably going to switch engines for our next project. Even though the changes aren't really affecting us at the moment.
Hey, I don't mind. As long as you keep the beautiful drawing and writing and those oh so sexy scenes, I'll be there to worship you all. Jesus, what a simp. Ugh
Android doesn't work?
Nvm it works I did it on parallel space .
hey man I heard that unity is bringing a new payment policy for its game engine how is the game development faring ,as I noticed your game runs on unity?
The whole thing won't affect us at the moment. Development is continuing without a hitch. After the game is finished we'll decide if we need to switch engines or not.
Aaahhh that's good to know👍
Interesting so far. Catherine is hilarious at times, love her personality. Great game.
Glad to hear you enjoyed it!
Just wondering as I played the game to its fullest (on the build I had at the time) and was wondering if there's any way to fully submit to characters like Jean or a sort of corruption/slut route? There wasn't when I initially played and I love when games give you those sort of options as it gives me more to do and it also gives me a bit more of a want to replay it as I can do a regular playthrough/pure playthrough and then a more slutty playthrough afterwards. Great game and loved my time with it but not played in a little while so curious on if there's been any changes with those sort of things in mind?
I recently put together a list of routes actually. I have yet to post it anywhere permanent that I can link to you so I'll just post it here. As for corruption, Evelyn's and Yda's route have themes of corruption though they are somewhat mild in Yda's route.
Romancable romantic partners
Amelie - Group Sex, Rough, Futa, FF, MFBriwalla - Rough, Futa, Roleplay
Eleanor(Love) - FF, Handholding
Eleanor(Slave) - BDSM, Dom/Sub, Slave, FF
Khai - MF, Handholding, Catboy Lena - FF, Surprisingly Handholding
Marius - MF, Rough
Evelyn/Mordred - FF, Corruption, Futa, BDSM, Slave, Threesome
Seralli - FF, Handholding
Victor - MF
Yda - FF, Bondage, Corruption, Loss of Control, Tentacles
Non-Romancable romantic partners
Elara - Futa
Jean/Jeanne - Rough, Dom/Sub, Gender Swap, Slave, MF, FF
Kyo - FF, Switch Labashi - MF
Sigrid - Futa Sylvara - FF
Awesome thank you haha. I'm sure you're still working on stuff but I have a few more questions as well. Do you plan on giving the player more to do in the future? As of right now aside from doing the quests/side quests the game gives you or either choosing to fuck, ignore or romance certain characters there's not much to do in the game. Will there be a combat system? Or more side quests in future updates? Will there be more consequences to actions you make or lack of action? For example not having enough money to pay your debt off, lacking a certain level of skill to choose certain options in the dialogue or actions because you didn't train at the gym enough etc etc. Again love the game it's tons of fun but just some questions I have is all since I'm curious on what plans you have for the game as the only real issue I had with it was the lack of things to do since you can't interact during combat leaving you with just the main/side quests that are currently given to you for you to do while you play. No hate just some criticism/questions!
For this game we have nothing else that we plan to add. Only a handful of improvements here and there. But we're getting close to finishing Rise and for the next game we want to add more stuff. For now we have a combat system planned, and a sort of adventuring system that we have yet to properly design so I can't give more informations at the moment. That on top of the visual novel elements that we have on Rise.
Fair enough! Well I can't wait to see what sort of stuff you do for the next game and this one. Keep up the excellent work!
We'll do our best!
