Astra: Ardent Show

A furry princess with a castle, a title, and a husband walks away from all three, because none of it added up to freedom. She lands on a remote island, falls in with a troupe of performers, and rebuilds herself as a traveling showgirl instead of an heir.

The past doesn't stay put, though. Marquis Saffron sails in with warships and soldiers to collect his lawful wife, and he's not interested in negotiating or losing. Astra ends up holding a choice that decides her own freedom and the fate of two islands, which is a lot of pressure for someone who just wanted to run a stage act.

Play moves between show life on the island and the fallout from Saffron's arrival, with hand-drawn scenes, a couple of animated bits, and a chibi combat mini-game you can turn off if fighting isn't your thing. You can also switch genital presentation between furry and vanilla. Lose the fight or reach the end of the demo, and you'll hit one of a small handful of endings.
