Hey everyone, we meet again! 👋

Player Avatar and Body Training

Finally, we implemented the Avatar. It's not only about for equipment, like weapons, armor, etc. It's also about Body Training. The more you fight - the more experience you get. You can then can spend this experience to train your body.

Also, thanks to Sifa and Devoidex, who have been helping me with the project, I will also support TF (transformation) gameplay now. While the casual playstyle has you play as a man and grow muscles, dominate, and so on, there is a new path: Feminization. If you choose this option, instead of growing muscles, you will lose them. Well, not all your muscles, your butt will grow bigger, as will other body parts, too. At the same time, some body parts might become very small or even disappear (sex change).

Considering how many femboys, traps and t-girls I've already drawn, I was quite happy to try that. Especially if it will make the project more popular. Still, I won't abandon the Male playstyle.

Also want to mention, that with the Male to Female transformation playstyle chosen, the animations after battles are not adjusted to reflect the body state of the player. The good thing that I need to adjust only 1 particular body part (or replace it with a toy that can be used instead), so I'll do that asap.

Later, if I get more subscribers who want more TF stuff, we can decide if we need more scenes where the player is a bottom. I'll run some polls related to that.

Equipment

The reason we implemented an Avatar was to add a player equipment system, and now that's done! I can say that it's even better than I imagined it at first. It's not just about boring "rarity" system and complete outfits. There is a huge upgrade system, and you can switch between certain upgrades if you need something specific for a particular enemy.

With the equipment we have also implemented Charges system. Charges are only provided by your equipment and are used to play advanced skills. There is no way to restore them in the same combat. However, if you get low on charges - you can always use "basic" skills. Those don't require any charges, but they're way weaker than the skills provided by Equipment.

Oh yeah, skills are also provided by Equipment now. It was quite reasonable, I'd say. It's obvious that with a Gladius you can slash, stab, thrust, etc. And with a Round Shield you can block, repeal, bash, etc.

All of that should help with building different strategies. Sure, it's a bit rough atm and not balanced well. But I think it's quite promising. Just need to add more weapons and armors, and balance the skills better.

Also, the Avatar lacks Cosmetics, for both female and male characters. I'll add stuff like beards, hairstyles, headgear, warpaints, and tattoos for male characters. For female characters I'll add makeup, nail polish, and so on. Most of that already included in the Avatar, but haven't designed/programmed yet.

Cosmetics won't be just visuals; I want them to affect the gameplay too. They'll add stats, and maybe improve relationship with certain characters. Stuff like that.

New Opponent

I also added a new character. Well, I added this character several months ago actually, but decided to wait 'til I could release everything I wanted... Anyway, nothing special about it, other than the fact that all of the visuals and animations this character were made completely by me, onebrushman. Sure, I reused some effects from Frieren's animations, but my skills in animation are getting better.

What I want to say in this part is that I won't do Popular characters anymore. My goal is to eventually release the game on Steam, so I need to make my own original characters. I'm working on redrawing all the characters to be more original (already changed Nezuko and Tsunade). I'll change their names soon, too. I'm still going to use characters I like as references, though.

Also, even though the opponents weren't changed, we added 2 new effects that change the combat a little, Corrosive attack and Area attack. Corrosion can ignore enemy's block skills, and Area attack can ignore their Dodge skill. It makes the battle more dynamic, and also it's reasonable to change equipment sometimes for certain enemies.

The other big plan for opponents is to implement a Dialogue system. And sure - sound effects.

Anyway, enjoy the game, I hope it's better now! And also don't forget to read the new in-game Roadmap!
