Finally, I was hoping to have it out at least two days ago, so this was starting to bother me, but I wrapped things up, so I am shipping it now. Without further ado, here is the link and the changelog:

https://mega.nz/#!tVR0ybQK!-NVO-TZsFk_6CFHfX3zuN7wyvuCGymyOtgb-FgvDKDs 

A new random event, which culminates in a short quest, involving a Ghost;

3 new scenes at the inn (during work);

2 new scenes at the pub (during work, one just adds 2 variations to the get drunk scene, while the other is the follow up to the scene with the guy who likes big breasts);

1 new scene with Carla;

portals added to the temples and horses for fast travels in the cities (be careful if you are on the last floor of the first temple, since I had to add a wall in the middle of the last room, you could get stuck in it if you saved right there in the previous version!);

Some work on the dragon, which now has a potential bad end (if you didn't meet him yet... It's because I hid him very well! Sorry, I don't know how to add changelogs for secrets, pretend you saw nothing :p).

There are also several bug fixes in this one, here is a list for that as well:

Fixed a problem with the map which hides the entrance to the first temple;

Fixed being unable to use Eloise's reward;

Fixed the chest in the second temple appearing open at first;

Fixed heroine's house being dark when you enter at night;

Fixed willpower training with Carla not moving forward time;

Fixed the magic shop not charging for teaching dispel;

Fixed bazaar vendors inventory being switched;

Fixed a few typos;

I think I fixed a few more, actually, but I forgot to add them to the notes.

Anyway, this should be about it for now. I pray for this to be as bug-free as possible, but it's probably going to keep me busy this weekend anyway. XD If any problems come up, make sure to let me know, otherwise, have fun! ^_^

A few typos? Weren't you threatening to make me a villain in the game because I kept nagging you about the grammar? LOL!

mdqp

You don't know half of it, I had at least 3 persons report typos this month, no idea why they all got noticed this time around (but I am glad I got some of the errors fixed, at least).

Tanner

Oh dear, I have competition. Time to work harder. *Evil Laughter*

mdqp

*cries in the corner* ;p

Are one of the scenes during the Ghost arc suppose to end with the screen turning black and remaining black?

Starwolf-001

For the Pub scenes test. If you select Yes and enter a numeral character (tested 0 and 1) the screen goes black.

Starwolf-001

For something-something league of merchants. Hypno spiral appears this time (compared to patch 0.55d) and remains on screen

mdqp

Nope, definitely a bug. As for the other two, often the testing events aren't meant to be 100% functional, I just need them to check a few things quickly, so they are bound to have weird, non functional quirks.

Lunaraia

could I get a pointer on how to trigger the dragon bad end? Been trying different things but so far the only thing ive managed to do is trigger the zanti event twice, which took about 30 minutes of work to do

mdqp

There is an additional thing you can "spend" your wish on, and that's a hidden reputation stat. Anyway, asking for help 4 times, without talking to the dragon enough, triggers the bad end (otherwise, he just leaves).

Lunaraia

ah that explains why I didn't find it, also the ghost kinda is visible in the bedroom and talking to it 3 times trigger the ghost event(s), I can't seem to trigger them otherwise

OhioOkie

i go to the pub and work. I just get a blank screen and no money. The character just goes right back home.

Tanner

Well then just stare into them.

Tanner

Same way you trigger the pickpocket. Run between maps in the residential area till it pops up.

Tojo

Hmm i dont seem to be playing the game enough because.. well i never found the dragon, Is there a general location or a quest line im supposed to be following for that?

Starwolf-001

I also am wondering where the dragon is. Can anyone give us a riddle or general clue. That way it can limit our search in order to find the dragon?

mdqp

The ghost wasn't supposed to start in the room, but I was a little overzealous when testing for the path, and then I forgot to delete it. She will disappear in the next hotfix. ;)

mdqp

That's a problem with a new system I am using for the scenes (I tested the new system, but now how it worked with the old messages). It will be up and running in the next hotfix.

mdqp

Spoilers! You can find him in a really secret area in the cave under the exorcist temple.

Lunaraia

I see, on the topic of bugs, the Pendant removal script is bugged she says she shouldn't take it off but it doesn't force equip itself again, also why not chance the pendant script so it does the same as the cursed crown, is simply impossible to interact with. Also the Study chair in the mages library broke again, giving a black screen if you enter a keyword that does not do anything

mdqp

When you say pendant, you mean the one you can get in the testing room, correct? That's a copy for testing purposes, so it doesn't get re-equipped (if you have the "real" pendant, though, that one goes in the equip slot even if the scene was triggered with the fake pendant). I think the damn black screen should be fixed now, look forward to the hotfix!

Tyler

Call me stupid, but where's the exorcist temple? I remember a few temples, but not an exorcist one

Hartmanns Youkai

It is the place the water priestess in Rahib sends you to check out. Excorcists aren't currently there, but it is their old temple.

Evident Disaster

I gotta say mate, but I don't think adding in fast response mini games as a very good addition, it's also a little confusing how you're supposed to follow the steps since it doesn't follow a particular order.

mdqp

Oh, I can always make it slightly slower, although I don't think this classify as fast response already, once you try it a few times. I might need to make a tutorial for it, since to press the key you have to wait until the ring is smaller than the symbol, and that might be confusing. I can also make it with just one slot, and have the directions appear always in the same spot, but I was afraid that would be too easy.

Evident Disaster

I'll concede that its an interesting concept, but the sequence should be more simplified since it's a kind of pain in the ass to go through all of them quickly, and for some reason trying to hit them one after another quickly automatically causes failure for some reason, I'm not sure if that's just a bug or if the game isn't keeping up on my PC. I'll have to double check that.

mdqp

I'll make it slower and a bit shorter, but as I said, you can't just hit them as soon as they appear, you need the ring to become smaller than the "button", before you can press the key.

Troqu

Can I get some clarification on that "Reputation"? Also is it basically that and the Zanti stuff right now and that's it? Also, I may have just had horrible luck but I've done around 30 pub jobs (on day 35 and most of them have worked at the pub) without getting a single event (lewd or otherwise).

mdqp

Reputation is basically a hidden stat which raises whenever you take actions which can damage your image (right now, it goes up only if you work in the brothel or do exhibitionist stuff thanks to the ghost). This will play an impact later on, when I add a path toward nobility and/or royalty in the game (and I'll probably have some other minor scenes here and there affected by it). The pub is bugged, and I'll upload a hotfix today, so everything should work just fine from then on.

TankHunter678

I think you should condense to just 1 slot, its fine for it to be easy because then it wont feel for some people like they are missing out on content because it keeps failing on them. Unless its intended to fail to get to the content.

mdqp

The minigame right now is mainly there to decide how much money you get. If I add random events at the end, they would probably play differently for different level of performance.
