[b]Edit 1: Reuploaded build with progression fix for existing save files.[/b] [b]Edit 2: Uploaded another progression fix to Itzayula town... [/b] (restart Steam to force update) A new content update is now live on the Steam Beta Branch! If you wish to play this build, make sure to switch your game version to the Steam Beta Branch! [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36210911/14232c55f0aded60688378543911f5a08ad53db6.png[/img] The [Bleakfyre Harrows] update features a whole new story chapter, with a new town, dungeon, and lewd animated scenes! (see full changelog list below) Please list your found bugs and issues to the appropriate channels in the official discord! [url=OFFICIAL DISCORD]https://discord.gg/C7JKZKS[/url] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm compelled to explain why this particular update took an unusually long time to be released. The TL;DR of it is that I had been suffering from a debilitating mental depression from an unclear physical cause, which I believe I have now overcome after many lifestyle changes/experiments. I feel inclined to apologize profusely to everyone who has supported the project to date, even if in retrospect, the depression turned out to be outside of my immediate control. I have been a powerhouse of work and motivation for these past two weeks and am very hopeful that I'll be able to continue at this pace! I'm very sorry that I left you all waiting so long for new content and fixes to Venture Seas. Moving forward, I'm genuinely excited to be working at my maximum ability/enjoyment again! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36210911/8375030cbf2f2a0e2c60ce3eb51ca2158da94b9b.jpg[/img] -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [h1]CHANGELOG[/h1] [h2]Content Additions[/h2] [*] Main Story - Chapter 5 added [*] New dungeon - Bleakfyre Harrows [*] ----New unique artwork race - Greblins (Warrior and Shaman versions) [*] ----New unique artwork race - Emberkin [*] ----New boss - Minoguar [*] ----Reworked Voidling/summon visual design [*] ----New items - Food, Armor, Weapons, Materials, Treasures, Cosmetics [*] ----New Runes: [Incinerate], [Flaming Target], [Ashes to Ashes], [Cleanse] [*] New town - Itzayula [*] ----New unique artwork character - Priestess Akna [*] ----New character/animated still - Goddess Kisin [*] ----New repeatable lewd artwork featuring Akna and Kisin [*] New side content - Grindhouse Coffee (futa coffee shop) [*] ----New unique character artwork - Nadia [*] ----2 new repeatable animated lewd scenes with Nadia [*] Added several new transformation items [*] ----Dubious Blue Pill - Penis size increase [*] ----Frigid Essence - Penis size decrease [*] ----Brotox Injection - Change face to masculine [*] ----He-Shea Butter Facial - Change face to androgynous [*] ----Sizzling Salve - Change body type to lean [*] ----Felidan Pheromones - Ball size decrease [*] ----Fun Juice - Ball size increase (Updated info and text scene) [*] ----Siren's Breath - Reduces breast size (Updated info and text scene) [*] ----All items above can now be crafted or purchased (from limited vendor inventory) [*] Added new clothing items [*] ----Tribal Armor [*] ----Breezy Top (supports custom color) [*] ----Tribal Tasset [*] ----Tribal Gloves [*] ----Tribal Sandals [*] New 'Eye-Shadow' type functionality [*] ----Can change at 'Nyaura' town alchemist trader - [Flirty], [Tribal] added [*] New voicebanks for giantess and quirky feminine [*] ----Added giantess voice to Hydra and Yeti [*] ----Added quirky feminine to Mariel and Alexis [*] Added environmental color 'tinting' system to characters (Averages pixels from bg image) [*] Added particle-based weather system [*] ----Added new 'snowfall weather' particle effect to appropriate scenes [*] ----Added new 'rainfall' particle effect to appropriate scenes [*] ----Added new 'foggy' particle effect to appropriate scenes [*] Several new environment artworks [*] All slime enemy designs have new unique artwork reworks [*] Several new special scenes to various existing dungeons (future lewd scenes) [*] 'Tribal' makeup alternate for aurelia (will be an unlockable special costume in future) [*] Added many new travel/journey blurbs to show after completing a ship journey [*] Added a few minor NPCs into the game for more variation in existing content [*] New sex looping sound system (currently only on new scenes) [*] New ambiance audio tracks (added appropriately throughout the game) [h2]Other Changes[/h2] [*] Added validation code for active/completed quests arrays for existing save files [*] ----This should fix some broken progression in existing save files [*] ----Added main story event validation when loading a file [*] Improved 'product use' error checks and text alerts [*] Removed 'Dark Pit' Event in Ruined Alcazar [*] Improved paper-doll part coloring with darker skin tones [*] Dungeon info files can now have a 'default ambiance' track set [*] Slightly buffed dungeon exp gain from completing a zone [*] Expedition end panel will now always show, no matter how a dungeon has ended [*] You will no longer take backtracking damage during expeditions while on casual difficulty [*] Reworked some code in preparation for further modding support [*] Converted buttons in character info panel to tooltips [*] Functionality to add colored text to tooltips [*] Added option to surrender during Expedition Map screen [*] Can now only mark 1 target at a time during combat [*] Equipment and Outfits are returned to ship inventory when dismissing crewman/whore [*] Food item use now only shows active Expedition members [*] Replaced some Vinthal anger voice clips [*] Tweaks to mouth movement system for main characters [*] Enemy skins/body can now be set for combat encounters from spreadsheets [*] Optimized animated sex code [*] Changed some item descriptions/info [*] Slightly altered appearance of some existing NPCs [*] Updated functionality of old spreadsheet scripts & added a few new scripts [*] Minor tweaks to many scenes throughout the game (improved transitions, audio etc...)
