Stronger Bonds tells the story of Samson and Harry Hornhold, two brothers who just arrived to Kinoff City, known as "The Gay Capital".
Samson was hired to be the new police chief, a position he already has had in the past. He has to face the challenge to manage a city much bigger than the town he comes from, but he is so ready for something new in his life... even more considering the bad things that had happened in his life.  His wife died of cancer ten years ago and then he got in a fight with his four sons, which run away from home years ago and never returned. After all this, Samson got in a deep depresion that almost destroyed him, but he was able to recover thanks to his little brother, Harry, who will do whatever is necessary to prevent his brother from falling into depression again.
But the destiny has something big planned for Samson, because he just arrived to the city where his four sons lives. Now it will be a tough time where Samson will have to deal with a city that hides many darks secrets, while his sons will hide from their father trying to look at the distance if he has changed from the man he was, and Harry will have to make miracles to control the situation between his brother and his nephews until they make their final decision to forgive their father or no. (This description only applies to the first chapter "Bonds from the Past")

Stronger Bonds is a visual novel with a NSFW story with urban context, anthropomorphic (furry) characters, adult scenes and language.

MORE INFORMATION

CHAPTERS:

This story will be separated in chapters. Each chapter will take at least one year to be completed. There will be a new version of the game each month, with more content and more story. And more spicy scenes!

The chapters we have developed so far are:

1. BONDS FROM THE PAST

Samson's sons will have to choose if they want to forgive or forget their father. Meanwhile Harry will have to hide the truth about his nephews from Samson, who is busy trying to know the city and the mysterious characters who live there.

2. AN UNEXPECTED BOND

Samson, after solving the problems of his past, feels in peace mentally but that makes certain hidden side of him begin to emerge, free after so many years of being buried below Samson's sadness. It's time for Samson to discover and explore this new side and maybe, just maybe, start a new chapter of his life by having again an important person by his side...

3. BONDS OF POWER

Kinoff is about to become a center of chaos! The election for mayor is getting closer and it seems more people want that job or want to have influence over it! Thor will have to show why he is still the perfect man for the position but this will become a fight for power, a fight for money, and a search for pleasure and personal gain will be involved as well! And there is this poor rhino named Samson involved in all this, after getting some fame and influence! And a apparently uncontrolled need to satisfy his wild side!

4. (COMING IN LATE 2024 OR 2025!)

Hello! Thanks for your nice comment! We're glad you like the game that much! :D

(+1)

I played a new stunt that had come from you and really interesting the story goes! I just really annoy that almost all the games here itch is like this that is a free relationship and put everyone.... it is a real pity that in this story too, there is one for the main character... I really hope that at some point Samson gets tired of it and is only with the wonderful Rhoga dinosaur: D how you have written them together is awesome and I can not wait to get to continue the story but I hope there is less of that so-called free relationship because otherwise you see it in real life too much . I will support you when 3.09 is published! you are awesome! good summer anticipation for you game makers!

Hello! Thanks for your comment! Let's see how it goes for Samson and Rhogan in the future! ^_^

(+1)

One of the best Vn I had the grace to read. I love how well written the characters are and how the story develops. I have a soft spot for later blossoms like Harold because I had to help my father discovery himself past his second marriage. He was lost, confuse and lonely and so sooo shy! See him past that and love again someone made me love even more Harold and his story.

Please continue the good work!!!   

(+2)

Thanks for your sweet comment! Tho I don't know if you mean to mention Samson or Horace.

(+1)

oh god I totally forgot to pin the character I was speaking >-< but is Samson. His story captivate me from the the beginning and I want so bad to see him speak about with his kids!!

Come on guys, where are the reviews T-T

(2 edits) (+2)

Played the latest update version of 3.07, by purchasing from gumroad. And I gotta say, I loved this new twist/clue to what's really going on behind the scenes. Won't spoil it for those that haven't played it yet. But I really loved the new angle going on with the new information/lore we're given in this update.

On a less serious note, now I've got a new pairing I'd just love to see thanks to this update. Before this I had written Ceasar off as a character that hadn't hooked me from the beginning. But now...I just really wanna see him and Samson have some er, chance to get "well acquainted" and to have some "fun time bonding". This is  now two characters I realllly wanna see have their fantasy/desire with Samson happen, the other being Thor (the white bull that's the current mayor I believe).

Keep up the fantastic work, love how the game is coming along and where the story have been going so far. Especially with the fantastically well executed new twist/clue given in the latest update at the                 and the            eyes.

Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm glad you are loving the new update! Hopefully the current plots are entertaining for you!

That is really unfortunate! If you have a chance, please contact me at twitter. My handle is @BigKrosbar . We can try to find a solution for you! I am really sorry this is presenting so many troubles!

(+1)

This is amazing can't wait for next update

(+2)

I'm having trouble accessing the Ben drake Koda adult scene

Will there be an update on Gumroad?

This update is amazing I was wondering if the characters list gonna get updated??

(1 edit)

Downloaded Android Build. During Chapter 2, this happened.

Edit: Tried to ignore, but kept popping up like that, resulting in it skipping parts of the story.

Hey! I just played a 2.14 version of your game and well I have to say it was just ok... but annoyed that the choice was not ralph... hopefully Samson will have lasting love... I look forward to the next update. can you tell me what the next update will include? whether the story goes on?

Hello! Sorry but Samson can't have unlimited boyfriends (mostly because we don't have that many time to program something like that). The main plot of the next chapter was mentioned, the mayor election. So we will see some chaos at Kinoff city. I wouldn't say to expect a Game of Thrones, but I hope to make the story more interesting while some characters are in the search of power, and more pleasure!

Hello! I noticed this while continuing the latest update Holland's name appeared sudde ly when I think it should be Freddy? This happened after Sam hit the trash cans. I think you just mixed up the name there.

Hello! Thanks for the report! Gonna check that!

are the saves from last version incompatible?

Sometimes I do some little changes in the last lines of code of the previous version and that ruins some saves, but in general they should work. Right now I don't remember if I did some changes in the date scene that might have caused that error.

damn Benjamin is a 1000/10 love his design 

(+1)

Thank you! ^_^

There a problem when you pick the red hot Dino as later on date it says it going to the somewhere as the hot bear name 

Thanks for the report! Gonna check that!

np bud heh happy to help and keep safe ^^

This game keep getting amazing hehe amazing work and keep safe ❤️
