PRESS F FOR SAVE FILES, MASSIVE CHANGES.


BIG READ INBOUND! GET COMFY! MY BRAINS BEEN ON FIRE FOR THIS GAME!

Hey guys, Donny, here!
Oh dear, looks like save files won't be transferable.
Apologies.
But I am making the game a fresh experience from the start.
Here's how!

LIMITED DAYS ARE HERE!

Depending on what difficulty you pick, you will be given a certain amount of days to complete the game.
For part 1, this won't matter but implementing it now will allow a smooth transition for when Part 2 is ready. I will also implement a fail-safe later on, so you can keep playing in Part 1.
Easy - 90 days
Normal - 60 days

Hard - 35 Days

Anaias will even reference your choice in the redone intro scene!

What advances days?
Sleeping
Losing Battles
Fun with the girls.
Expeditions.
Some quests (A warning will be displayed beforehand.)

MORE ANIMATED AND ALIVE!
The women now move their mouths when speaking, and blink inbetween!



So far, I've got Ria and Vivianna done, Maxi will be next, in her new, casual look.

RELATIONS SCREEN IS FINALLY HERE!

I've been wanting to do this for the past year. This week, I decided to knuckle down and try to overcome the javascript demon. After some intense googling, I found all I had to do, was change a number in the settings... that was it... Just gunna leave that there.
ANYWAY.
Here's how designing the screen went
It looked VERY bland at first.


So I got on with opening up the javascript, and began to find my way, until we arrived at this. Lets start with Ria.


I've been remaking Ria's quest, and her relation with Uncle is now strictly platonic. You can also annoy a woman on quests, requiring you to try and improve the relations back to a favorable amount. Combat wise, I'm thinking of keeping Ria quite simple, with a variety of support and damage abilities. She's most likely going to be the one applying effects that the rest of the party can take advantage of.

Yea, that's right! Vivianna will have her own quest, too.


I'm thinking she asks The Brave to help hunt a boar, so she can hold a great feast for people in these trying times. She will also be a bard. Combat wise, she will have very little offense, only having maybe two songs that take advantage of an enemies condition. I'm thinking her songs stack. Play song 1 to ally. After, play Song 2 or 3, and so forth. Need to experiment to see if can be implemented.

The Freestate Huntress will be getting her own new H-scenes and a redone quest!


For her basic attack, she won't use her firearm. Instead, she'll use a blade of some sorts. Her powerful pistol/rifle attacks will require an item, 'Bullets'. I'm thinking, with every basic attack, she stacks a count on herself. When this count reaches a certain number, she can unleash a powerful attack. This is just theory for now, and is still something I need to see if I can implement first.
Overall, there will be less encyclopedia entries, but it will make things a lot smoother, and it'll open up space for more Lore entries.
Oh, and here's a little preview of all three women's battle huds.





What else....OH! I finished Luciana's H-Scene! She's now fully implemented as a boss battle.


The menu screen has changed, too. All the numbers you need to keep track of are looking much neater.


Here's a little preview of Ria's redone quest


Food & Potions has some new editions. It could do with a redesign though. That'll come in time. They can provide you with powerful pre-battle bonuses.


When will all this be out? I'm not putting down any time or date, there's still A LOT more that needs to be done! 2 months is the best I can say. Take it easy, and thanks for reading!

excited for the update! You’re on fire my friend keep at it! 

The girls look awesome with their outfits! And looks like have more depth love it so much! Viv’s a bard fits her soooo well! Tho Ria dosen’t like cats :( nevertheless im more of a Viv and Maxi fan myself lol. Tho I like how you changed Ria’s relationship with the uncle!

I dont mind starting from scratch, as with all the work you’ve done it might be a new game entirely with the party system! :) 

I was thinking for easy mode, you can bump the 90 to 120 days, and 50% more money drop? So that if save transfer wont work, it will be faster to catch up? But up to you! 

Cheers! All the best!

Thank you! Depth is what I'm going to go for, not too much, but enough to create some interest. The uncle thing was a bit of a fetish projection, and I've found another way to make it work, while keeping integrity of the main characters who should be an example of the good in the brave's life.

A little boost like that isn't a bad idea. I'll have a think! Thanks again!
