Holy Shaft | Dev Update Preview #1
Added 2025-07-22 00:11:52 +0000 UTCSo for the past month I've been working on a game about Angels, Elevators, and Spanking... Why you ask? Because no one else is doing it!
The best way to describe the game is that it is sort of an "Elevator Isekai" where each floor teleports you to a completely different world. Each floor gives you a set of choices to choose from and each choice is tracked and gives you points in one of the 3 stats seen below.
Each elevator run is about 10 floors which are randomly pulled from a pool of 25+ floors. Overall, the main goal of the game is to help the angel Elevana get a promotion by the end of the run and prove herself to the All-Mighty Administrator.
This game is still in the early stages, but I only plan to spend about another month or two on it since I want to be able to submit to some end-of-summer game jams.
As for Kana-Sensei [Day 5], some progress has been made but most of it has just been coding-related prepwork and it has been a bit difficult forcing myself through the monotonous tasks which is part of the reason why I decided to work on another short smaller-scoped game in the meantime.
Anyways, I hope you're looking forward to the next update for Holy Shaft!

我也有过类似的想法。玩家在整个游戏过程中基本上都不可见，因此理论上我可以加入选择性别和为角色选择基础角色的选项，而不是像《Mandatory Mentor》中那样使用单色角色。

2025-07-28 11:26:03 +0000 UTCMe too, I enjoy that I can basically experiment and add any type of scene from any era or world in this game.

2025-07-28 11:22:49 +0000 UTC我觉得其中一个失败的结局玩家会被其中一位角色打屁股是一个很好的点子

2025-07-26 17:15:55 +0000 UTCyou really do find the most amazing soundtracks for your games, I love the music you're using here! Looking forward to it, your smaller games are very addictive and fun and this looks like a cute little game to add to the library of Kana-sensei games! Good luck!

2025-07-25 08:29:45 +0000 UTCWhoa this looks interesting and I really like the choices of any scenario instead of just linear. Can't wait to play this awesome work sensei

2025-07-24 08:14:23 +0000 UTCHmm, I do like the idea of having a demon spank one of the angels. I'll need to see what kind of character designs I can come up with for this one.
Kana
2025-07-23 12:06:09 +0000 UTCSince I can pretty much use any characters from any universe in this game, I do plan to include a good amount of the popular or current ones where possible.

2025-07-23 12:02:10 +0000 UTC你的选择确实会影响结局和结果。在电梯内与服务员的互动会根据您当前的状态而改变。

2025-07-23 12:00:53 +0000 UTChmm, seem like an interesting idea, looks like it has potential, and some good events. Personally, I have always wanted to see a good depiction of a Demon spanking an angel. It would be cool if Elevana was actually a demon riding the elevator attached to our soul, and by gaining enough power she spanks the Admin angel until she is granted angel status. obviously that's just my personal desire and you will do what you please. I have enjoyed all of your games anyway so I know that it will end up good regardless.

2025-07-23 02:51:58 +0000 UTCWonderful! A new spanking game and more times to get the great waifus spanked. I am happy to see you exploring and adding in new flavor as well as telling us the current state of Kana Day 5 I cant wait to spank Marin and Yuki Suou! Anymore anime girls you can tease us with? Like not sure if you know A Couple of Cuckoos season 2 is airing. Thank you, Kana!

2025-07-22 16:49:06 +0000 UTC老师我看了一下视频预览，有点没明白这个是如何的运作方式，是我们的选项会影响属性还是我们和层里的角色互动会影响属性😳

2025-07-22 15:15:53 +0000 UTCNew long-term goal: Add spanking to every known game genre.
Kana
2025-07-22 13:40:46 +0000 UTCWell said.
Kana
2025-07-22 13:37:28 +0000 UTCDefinitely love some of these ideas! I'm hoping to add a lot of different endings since each run will basically be RNG and only 10 floors. Maybe more if I find it needs tweaking. But scenes with the Administrator spanking Elevana and vice-versa? Guaranteed!
Kana
2025-07-22 13:36:21 +0000 UTCHad to refresh myself on Death Parade, but I suppose in a way the player is being judged as well. Might see if I can borrow any ideas by rewatching the series again.
Kana
2025-07-22 13:34:31 +0000 UTCWhat a strange Idea for an elevator gane usually (from my experience) this is horror exclusive Seems interesting to have a spanking game added to this type of genre

2025-07-22 07:12:21 +0000 UTCIt looks GREAT so far! I can already see a bunch of endings. 1. You succeed and get to have Elevana as your Waifu. 2. Too much wrath and too little of the other stats or at least too little compassion causes her to get re-positioned as a punishment demon. 3. You fail miserably super early on and the Administrator spanks you both. 4. You do so perfectly Elevana gets promoted over the Administrator whom gets punished for her own oversight.

2025-07-22 03:31:23 +0000 UTCI was wondering if it would be like a Death Parade style game. But from the trailer, it seems to just be chaotic fun.
