Star Knightess Aura 0.39.0-prerelease-3 (Patreon)

ITCH | MEGA | ITCH-DELUXE | MEGA-DELUXE

We start the final dungeon! It's a bit annoying to access at the current time as you need to use the Collar Removal to break the barrier so until the Final Shield quest is done, most people will probably not venture here but it helps me figure out the balancing.

Remember the demons you fought in the intro with level 90+ chars? Well, time to figure out how you measure up to these enemies with level 10+ characters but all the skills, items, growth and everything else you have gained throughout the game!

The first level of Richard's Domain is dedicated to Greed and has a couple of weird mechanics. I will just warn everyone that there might be a little bit of fake gold trolling going on. :'D But don't worry, the enemies won't be quite as strong as from the Intro, as I am now using the knowledge of end-game stats to weaken them enough so that they are both fightable and also more consistent with the (Higher) Demon Generals and don't exceed their stats.

In addition to that, at least for this dungeon, instead of the usual negative energy points we have some different interaction options that can power up or down enemies. Take the Gold and make them stronger or destroy the greed chests to weaken them?! A viceful Aura would know what to do...

Okay, anyways that covers pretty much the main additions for this week prerelease! Besides the actual dungeon, we also have two minor story events to tie together the plot lines after the reverse summoning ritual and get the party into the dungeon and of course a certain someone is waiting there for Aura.

On the technical side, Trihan has been making some progress on cleaning up some of our developed plugins. We upgraded to RPGMaker 1.8.0 but I don't think there's anything important on the player-side here. And those who don't like NEW markers apparantly can now turn them off in the Options.

On the artwork side, our artist Emubi finished the Laura character artwork yesterday, but I didn't have the time to integrate it yet. Furthermore we discusses the briefs for Lewd Streaming 3 and Maid Training 3 which will both use the Bunny Suit Masturbation H-CG as the base CG.

Aaaaand that's it for the week. The combined changelog for the prerelease and patch as usual below. Next week: Getting started on the Paulina maid content and putting in the new Laura artwork!
