Alpha v5

New Additions:

Fame system implemented
- Renown increases client base
- Value increases pay earned during encounters
- Allure slightly increases negotiation
Options menu given a set of buttons to spend fame points
The six advanced settlements intended to be released in the previous update are now available and are 99.99% guaranteed to not cause any crashes
- They still haven’t undergone the testing that the previous settlements have, so please report any abnormalities
Additional text has been added to encounters
Text has been added to the character creation screens explaining races and sub-races
Encounter races are now functional
- You can see what a settlement’s population is when you look at the travel options
- Loading an old save will automatically set your current settlement and all current travel locations to human settlements
Added the Xenophobic perk, exclusive to mountain dwarves, to reflect their issues working with other races, which reduces the pay you earn within non-dwarven settlements by 10%
- This is additive with your rules for price, reducing the cheap option to 70%, and the expensive option to 110%
Added the Fae perk, which is to be used to alter future encounters as the fae halfling and the wild elf
- One of these events involves the fairies in the enclave, who serve no purpose until alternate scenes are added
Added the Recruit perk, which can be earned by training at the barracks
- This perk was known earlier in production as Fencer and has since been renamed
Added a temporary data block on the data screen to give an idea of what saved games are there until I finish the journal feature
Added new items across various stores, including scented candle, elven cloak, silken sheets, perfume, and tonic.
- Scented candles and silken sheets can improve your mood daily, but are costly and only improve in small amounts
- Elven cloak decreases the chance you will encounter a bounty hunter while they are in a town, but does not stack with the black goblin bonus
- Perfume is automatically used once per day in order to increase your client count
- Tonic can be manually consumed to guarantee maximum affliction recovery whenever your day begins (similar effect to temple divine healing)
Added the credits button to the title screen along with a simple credits screen, which includes two tiers of supporters – any supporters who have contributed $10 in one month, and all project supporters who have donated at least $10 throughout the project’s life
- If you support the project but either don’t want your name listed, or want a different name listed, please message me either on Patreon using the account you pledged with, or send me an e-mail from the address you donated from
- Going forward, the credits will only be updated at the end of each month

Balance Changes:

It’s now slightly easier to shake off afflictions
Divine healing at the temple now provides a bonus chance to removing afflictions
Vaginal and anal are now innately worth 20% more than previously in order to make them more attractive options considering the additional risks involved
Resetting potential travel locations now costs more each time you do it
- The cost resets to default after the day ends
There are now diminishing returns on time gained when traveling with 10 or more days left before bounty hunters arrive
Relief Girl has been entirely reworked, granting a small fame bonus when you enter a new settlement, but has a lower travel discount
Using your action for the day to visit one of the locations now prevents you from traveling until the next day

Bug Fixes:

Loading games deleting sub-races
The way perks were handled has been completely remade from scratch, fixing a huge number of perks not functioning as intended and is fairly extensive, since I repeatedly tested every single perk during this
- Healthy now properly increases the health modifier
- Immunity now properly reduces damage taken
- Perks that give multipliers should be more accurate
- Basically every perk should work as intended right now
  - Except Party Girl, because groups don’t approach yet
Crash that occured while sometimes loading games
Error that made the game unplayable on some systems
Error that caused severe graphical glitches on some systems
Error that prevented the browser version from loading in some browsers
- The browser version has been tested with Chrome and Firefox, but should work with any HTML5-compatible browser
Crash that occured when the browser version tried to do math
The default race is now human and the default sub-race is the first sub-race of each race
Disabled loading game slots when there is no saved data in those slots
Changed the debug mode key away from Alt
Fixed alignment of certain portions of the status screen
Fixed more text running off of the screen
- If you find any more, please let me know which screen the text is running over on
- I’ve also included a ‘Text’ option in the bug report form, if anyone prefers to use that
Fixed the buckler only working in certain types of encounters
- To clarify, the buckler should always reduce the amount of damage you take in combat by 1
Travel button no longer disappears, but will still be locked if you’ve been captured by slavers and haven’t purchased your freedom yet, or if you have already used your daily action
