[RPG Maker MV] Daughter of Essence (Big Update 3-24-18!)

[IndoorMinotaur]

New Release: Version 0.102!

Hi, everyone!

The latest build nearly wraps up the alternative path for the siege--the route where, if Mercy isn't confident in the cove's strength, she sends for backup and tries to hold the choke until help arrives.

There are a few little bumps to smooth over for next week, but then we're sailing on ahead with new content and leaving the cove behind once more! I, for one, will be grateful for the change of scenery and to be finished with this exceedingly complicated event, haha.

• Added the “stall for time” siege, including battles where you hold the choke point as Marlan, Hallie, Dalkon, Fukuro and Franz
• Added a new short cutscene on Bell's deck
• Added new dialogue to some residents after the “stall for time” siege, and made some of the dialogue from head-on attack apply for both paths
• All members of the ship's crew will be absent from the cove after the strategy meeting if the “stall for time” path is chosen

New Release: v0.103!

Hello, everyone!

This patch puts the whole cove siege section to bed, adding a lot of new scenes and updating the dialogue for all the members of the cove, and tweaking/improving some of the scenes during the siege itself. Plus, there are some relatively important bug fixes thrown in for good measure.

For now, I'm ready to move on and tackle what comes next, but in the future I'll probably come back to this section and flesh out a few more details, like unique dialogue for every possible member of the cove who didn't make it, and little on-screen effects to ramp up the drama when the general shows up.

As for what comes next: Mercy has to rush around, making good on her alliances, finishing her preparations and bolstering the cove's strength for Oldlight's return. Plus, there are still a few mysteries to solve, like the idols and whatever happened to Friedhilda.

We hope you're as excited to see where it all goes as we are.

- Nym

Version 0.103 - 10-11-2019

• Added Bell's arrival scene (Stall route)
• Added Bell & Franz scene, new backstory (Stall route)

• Added a lot of new dialogue to more cove residents pre- and post-siege
• Sabal will now fight alongside Marlan in the Cove Siege if recruited
• Mercy will now appear in her quarters after the Stall route is completed and rest before continuing, which plays a new cutscene
• If Dalkon, et al, lose their fight during the siege (Stall route), they now die permanently and count towards the total lost
• Mercy & Orus are now correctly recovered after resting post-siege
• A monument has been added to the rear-portion of the cove to commemorate anyone who falls in the siege (WIP)
• Heckart finally gets his rematch (Stall route only, for now)
• Added a new (unique) craftable accessory at the upgraded forge
• Fixed an issue where Elijah could repeat dialogue automatically after the siege
• Fixed an issue where the pirate class incorrectly couldn't access essence magic (among other things, this caused Bell not to access part of his moveset in the deepfolk fight)
• Fixed some passability issues while controlling Beatrix in Shiveworth
• Revised a few lines of dialogue in Shiveworth

Weekly & Alpha Release: v0.104!

Hi everyone! Version 0.104 is uploaded for weekly and alpha patrons! Thanks for your patience and thanks for playing our game.

New to the game? Become a patron or try the public build at https://www.patreon.com/indoorminotaur

We have a couple of pretty cool new systems being implemented this week, and the longest scene written to date, which had to be broken into three separate portions since it's a bit of a slow burn before it really gets cooking.

We've also begun trying to address the world changes for chapter 9, but as you can imagine, that's a big project in and of itself and will take a while to iron out.

Anyway, you can peep everything that's new this week in the notes below. As always, we hope you enjoy, and we'll see you next week!

Version 0.104 - 10-18-2019

• Added a new NSFW scene (M/F, Dom/Sub, Mature)
• Bell's arrival to the cove has been added to the siege route, and a new scene with Tafo was added
• Added a 5th level to the dorms (WIP)
• Added a new multi-part cove sequence building up to the new NSFW scene
• Adjusted essence magic for better balance and synergy
• Adjusted classes and enemy resistances to reflect new simplified magic resistance chain: earth > thunder > water > fire > ice > earth (light and dark counter each other, governed by moon and night, respectively)
• Added new spell effects and made some spells negate certain status afflictions based on the new resistance chain (earth negates paralyze, thunder negates drowned, water negates burns, fire negates chilled/frozen, ice negates dizzy/disoriented). Additionally, if a spell is used on a target afflicted by the state it negates, the spell's damage is amplified.
• Updated the library to contain all missing NSFW scenes
• You can now leave the cove in chapter IX after discussing the Emerald Flats with Marlan (Ch. IX world is WIP)
• Fixed an issue where Fukuro would show up with Marlan instead of Sabal
• Fixed some text alignment issues
• Fixed some portrait alignment issues
• Franz, the Carvannah refugees, Sigrun & co., the Danforth Crook bandits are all gone from their respective places in the world starting in chapter IX if not recruited

New Release: Version 0.105!

New to the game? Try the public build or become a patron at https://www.patreon.com/indoorminotaur

Hi Nym, here!

Spent a lot of time this week really fleshing out the essence journal, adding a full-detail page for every spell in the game. I'll be doing the same for the weapon skill journal soon, but I ran out of time this week.

Besides just the spellbook, I've added a number of brand new spells to the game, continuing the recent trend of trying to add depth and synergy to the game's magic system for those people out there like myself who love experimenting with different build combinations.

There's other little tidbits here and there, but I'll let the patch notes handle the rest and just say thanks for playing, as always, and I hope you're looking forward to a brand new area coming next week.

Version 0.105 - 10-25-2019

• Completely overhauled the essence magic journal, adding a full detailed page for every individual spell.
• 6 Brand new spells were added to the 2nd and 3rd tier of Eva's workspace!
• Hawk's Keep is abandoned in Chapter IX and all the Lions have moved on (but maybe someone else has moved in…?)
• Danforth Crook has been updated slightly for chapter IX. Marilea is no longer recruitable and the jobs around the farm are already taken care of, so you won't be asked for help.
• The basement key from Danforth can be retrieved in chapter IX even if the bandits weren't recruited, and Sabal can still be recruited
• If Colette wasn't recruited in Chapter VIII, you have another chance to recruit her in chapter IX
• Flame Cultist added to Fogsborough Ch. IX (requires having found her previously)
• Attack-all spell animations have been improved for fewer cut-offs and better screen alignment, so it doesn't look like allies are caught in the attacks
• Emerald Oasis added to the overworld and world map
• Added new dialogue with Captain Bell, discussing the plans for departure. Mercy no longer leave the cove in Ch. IX until after this dialogue occurs
• Qel can now land at the Emerald Oasis, though it can't be accessed until Ch. IX
• Fixed an issue where the bird cage image overlay had a tile graphic error
• Mining nodes in Esterholt now correctly show the coat portrait
• Fixed a cutscene in the White Rat where Mercy's sprite wasn't correctly shown as sleeping

New Release: Version 0.106!

New to the game? Want to become a patron or try the public build? Visit https://www.patreon.com/indoorminotaur

Hey everyone!

There are several new areas and a lot of new cutscenes this week, but the biggest change is also the most subtle: a total overhaul of all the hidden calculations behind the fishing system. It doesn't mean a whole heck of a lot on the casual user's end, but it cleans the whole thing up a lot for me and makes a few improvements in the process.

It's fun to be working on fresh new content again, since I was starting to get tired of the cove events. Look forward to a whole lot more next week!

- Nym

Version 0.106 - 11-1-2019

• Added the Temple of the Burning Stone (WIP)
• Added temple interior
• Added inner sanctum
• Added new idol space
• Added new optional boss encounter (WIP)
• Added a new cutscene with the flame priestess
• Dougar is recruitable in Ch. IX IF he was spoken to in Ch. VIII after recruiting Sigrid
• Overhauled the fishing system. Your Luck now directly affects what fish you will find in addition to whether you catch a fish. Your line can no longer break unless you land a fish. Increased the odds of finding regionally-specific fish. (Each time you cast, a random number is rolled between 1 and 400. Mercy's Luck stat is then added to the total. When using a Lure, Mercy's Luck is tripled. If the resulting number is higher than 200, something is hooked.)
• Revised the snowy cliff tiles around Esterholt and Fogsborough to be less blocky and allow passability underneath
• Added some new fishable items
• Fixed some portrait issues in Carvannah
• Fixed some repeating animation issues

Hi everyone, prepared here specifically for your pleasure is the game's latest and greatest release, version 0.107.

A lot of new information about Mercy, the idols, and the previous Daughters of Essence is brought to light this week in one of the most involved and lengthy quests I've put together yet.

Plus, a couple of new characters are introduced that I think a lot of people are going to end up really liking. I can already tell they're going to be some of my favorites.

Enjoy!

Version 0.107 - 11-8-2019

• Marlan is now restored before his fight in the siege
• Fixed an issue where Dallas could appear in the cove even if not recruited
• Any item given to Beatrix in the fight against the twins is now removed after combat

[IndoorMinotaur]

New Weekly & Alpha Release: v0.108!

Hellooooooo, and thanks for joining us for another new release! We focused a lot on revisions and improvements this week, including portraits, weapon skill books, and in many cases, the skills themselves.

The long quest chain from Fogsborough to Fort Wilkes to New Light has finally concluded, and a number of new friends can be made along the way. I've also begun work on a cool new area called Emerald Flats, but that isn't quite ready for exploration yet. You can look forward to seeing some of that next week.

Until then, we hope you enjoy!

New Release: v0.109!

Hey everyone, thanks for checking out our latest release! New to the game? try the public build or become a patron at https://www.patreon.com/indoorminotaur

This week has been all about mapping out the brand new area, Emerald Flats. It's a big, spacious town tucked away in a forest, and it's going to end up being probably the largest & most populated area since Carvannah.

It's already quite big! Next week, we start in on the interior areas and finish populating the town with all the new NPCs. This might be the last new town the game gets before we start closing in on the finale, so we hope you like it!

Hi everyone, hope your holidays have been splendid and you're all excited for the new year!

Version 0.114 - 12-27-2019

• Fixed an issue where szarva milk was incorrectly missing from the tavern once Cattie took over

[IndoorMinotaur]

New Year, New Build: v0.115!

Hey everyone, happy 2020. This week's build finally cut up a bunch more of our voice actress's monologue bits for Mercy and adds them in, which is a lot more work getting right than it sounds, but definitely worth it.

She does a great job with Mercy, and I'm looking forward to getting the rest of the game voiced up.

Beyond that, I fixed a bunch of bugs and updated the cove with new, post-Emerald Flats dialogue. This is getting more and more time-consuming as the cove keeps growing and adding new people, but it really feels essential to making the cove feel "alive" and I don't mind doing it.

You'll notice that a lot of people start hinting at errands or projects they'd like to attempt before it all goes down, and this chapter is going to be Mercy's last chance to get all her unfinished business concluded, so there are a lot of threads to start tying off.

Next week, we're gonna be doing a lot of tying. Hope you look forward to it.

[IndoorMinotaur]

New Release: v0.117!

Hi everyone!

Version 0.117 is available to both weekly and alpha patrons! This is primarily because version 0.116 will be going public NEXT FRIDAY, and I want to make sure all patron builds stay ahead of it.

But beyond that, just the nature of the build's content, the amount of fixes from last week, and the additional testing I'd like to get done before it all goes public just warrants an extra alpha release.

Hope you enjoy!

New Weekly Release: v0.119!

Hi everyone! Some spoilers in this post, so read ahead at your own risk.

It's a somewhat contained build this week on account of all the post-launch work that accompanies a new public build and the subsequent hotfixes, but a lot of new dialogue and characters have been added to the cove and I've begun the tedious (but admittedly also kind of fun?) labor of preparing a big climactic battle.

If you've already done the first siege, where you assign members of your cove to various roles, then imagine that again but on steroids, with more stats, many more members of the cove to choose from, and a much more elaborate and larger-scale battle plan.

This part is going to take a while... but I'm hoping it does all your choices and hard work so far justice, eventually.

For now, why not take a peep at the patch notes below and see what's new this week?

New Release: v0.120!

Hey everyone, thanks again for helping the new public release go smoothly and for everyone who came to the discord to help report issues.

new or returning to the game? Become a patron or download the public build at https://www.patreon.com/indoorminotaur

We're looking really clean and stable right now, and I'm feeling good about the latest releases, which is great because all that smooth sailing is about to CRASH AND BURN, starting next week.

Because, folks.... we're finally here. The big moment of truth. The ultimate showdown (of ultimate destiny). Everything that you've been building towards is all preparing to converge right now, and it is not going to be a smooth process with easy-to-release builds in between.

I'm going to keep my head down for now and keep grinding just to see where we end up next week, but something tells me it might not be worth releasing until it's all playable.

On the other hand, it's probably going to need a lot of playtesting. We'll just have to see where I'm at with it all as we go and play it by ear.

Whatever happens... thanks for hanging in there.

As for the release right this moment, I'm giving you everything that's functional, just before the shit all hits the fan. There are some nice new features baked into this build that I think will make a lot of people happy.

Version 0.120 - 2-7-2020

• Added a new boss encounter
• Added a new side-quest (contingent on your choices so far)
• You can now skip right to Mercy's room or Beatrix's office from the Dorms entrance (and visiting Beatrix heals you automatically)
• You can now interact with the bed in Beatrix's office, and Beatrix will heal your injuries.
• Added more new dialogue to the cove
• Fixed an issue where Beatrix could appear in Ch. IX even if she had died in the siege
• Fixed some passability issues
• Fixed an issue where Captain Bell could remain in the cove after leaving for Emerald Flats

[IndoorMinotaur]

New Weekly & Alpha Release: v0.121!

Hey everyone!

This has been an excruciatingly time-consuming and complicated build to get out, but I'm very pleased to announce that the hard part is finally over and we're back to the more exciting stuff!

The new system developed for assigning units during the coming battle is vastly more sophisticated than the iteration from the previous siege, to say nothing of the fact that there are twice as many people now, so development on that created a lot of new challenges. I hope it works well, and I hope people don't find it too laborious to assign so many different roles, haha.

Aside from the big system implementation, we also wrapped up a few important plot-points and had time to squeeze in a brand new sex scene.

Next week's build is going to be all about diving into battle... so I hope everyone's ready!

• Fixed some Orus-overlap issues

[IndoorMinotaur]

New Release: v0.122!

Hey folks, this week we got a lot of new cutscenes with multiple branching paths wrapped up, and I plan to flesh them out a little further next week.

Also added the big packed-up final cove area, you'll be able to chat with everyone in the cove one last time before the big day, and in a lot of cases, get a bunch of new backstory on your fellow residents.

This is a WIP for now, going to take a whole lot of work to squeeze everyone in now that there are something like 80 possible members.

Anyway, thanks for playing and thanks for your support. Enjoy!

New Release: v0.123! Whoa!

Hey everyone!

We've got another new weekly build for you, this time with a comfortable blend of secret, invisible math and much more interesting, perfectly visible new character dialogue.

The cove is a crowded place now, and adding everyone in to the new areas and giving so many characters the chance to go deeper into their backstories was fun and rewarding, but also time-consuming!

Not much to say about the build beyond that. Things are shaping up, and we're chipping away at the big pieces little by little.

Thanks for the support!

Version 0.123 - 3-6-2020

• Added virtually every possible cove resident to the new packed-up cove areas with hundreds of lines of new dialogue and back-story
• Began the calculations for Oldlight's attacking strength based on your choices until now, and how those calculations will match up against your unit distribution scores
• Fixed some passability errors
• Fixed some typos and text runoff errors
• Fixed an issue where some characters in the cove could appear or trigger cutscenes/dialogue even if they were supposed to be dead
