Zendaria’s Corruption — Version 0.4.0 Changelog (Patreon)

📖 Focus on Main Story

This update is primarily focused on the main storyline.

There are some side quests available, but not a large number.

The main content is long, dense, and substantial.

Progression may feel more linear than usual.

This is intentional, as it helps avoid overcomplicating the game flow due to the multiple feminization stages of Micah present in this version.

💾 About Old Save Files

The game can be played using an old save file, but it is strongly NOT recommended.

Using an old save will cause you to miss:

The new class system

The new leveling system

Core progression mechanics

Old save files will remain as Legacy Human, which does not receive these new systems.

For the best experience, starting a new game is highly recommended.

⚔️ Class Balance & Feedback

It was not realistically possible to fully play-test every class in-depth.

As a result:

Some classes may feel shorter than others

Some classes may have fewer weapon options

Some skills may need balance adjustments

All feedback is extremely welcome.Please report issues or balance concerns on Discord so they can be refined in future patches.
