Figured I'd drop this game here as a heads up to see if there might be potential for it in the lewd modding scene? At the very least, would any modders be willing to take a look at it and see if it is moddable.

The game has a very simple premise. It is basically a magic school simulator. You run a school for mages and grow their power and take them into deep, dark dungeons so they fight monsters and stuff to reclaim the under-school and gather resources from below.

It's pretty fun and I'd recommend it, but so far the only mods I've seen are localization mods, so I'm wondering if its even moddable in the first place too.

With the recently released option to completely change the appearance of the mages a nude mod would be even more interesting. The tactical gameplay was also improved during the previous updates and would fit very well to defeat mods in my opinion.

Aye, here's hoping some mad lads start modding lol

I don't think the game is popular enough or moddable enough to warrant people really making mods for it... sad cause it has so much potential in it.

Interested? Definitely! Capable? Definitely not! :)

 

Another game which shares the eldritch feeling of Mind over Magic is Worshippers of Cthulhu, but i guess that it is neither popular enough.

I'm in the same boat with ya on interest in the craft but lacking the capabilities lol

Thought I'd just pop in to mention the game has gone 1.0 now.

Not entirely sure what the modding tools scene is like for this game, or how easy/difficult it is to mod period.

Someone posted this in the Steam forum:

 

'Mind Over Magic uses YAML files, simplified XML structure based text files for entities, logics and so on. You won't need a "rocket science"-degree in adding new stuff to your game, or even altering existing stuff in your game, and can do that right now. The only tedious part about this will be managing and re-comparing your edited files with upcoming updates and their untouched vanilla files, as priority file loading (just a simple external folder offered as "priority over vanilla game file loading"-folder, like "mods") is impossible, but could have been programmed easily into this game, as it is just an unity engine game.'
