Haremon [v0.40.0.2] [TsunAmie]

– Added Professor Laurel’s Lover H scene!

– Added swimsuits for all Awakened Haremon.

– Added 2 new sticker boards: Jet and the Kitsune. (This means that all Awakened Haremon no longer get the effects of their base form’s stickers!)

– Professor Laurel can now be dated and made your Lover. After completing chapter 2, you’ll get a text from Laurel making her available to date.

– Updated the background artwork for the beach. Other date locations will be replaced soon.

– Streamlined the effects phases in battle. Things like stat changes, status conditions, poison damage, etc. will now be displayed as quick popups, greatly increasing the flow of battle. This can be reverted by changing Battle Effects from “Quick” to “Detailed” in the settings menu.

– You can now take Awakened Haremon on dates. To do this, call them up and make sure they’re in the correct form before asking them out.

– Added a new status condition: Confusion. It reduces all moves’ level to 0 stars for a few turns. It can be inflicted by Brain Freeze (alternate upgrade for Frostbite), Lights Out (alternate upgrade for Gut Punch; Pummel is now an upgrade for Rampage), and Slap Silly (upgrade for Slap Fight). Whirlwind Strike now inflicts this condition instead of lowering the user’s Agility, and its damage is raised to 15 per hit.

– Fainted Haremon will now be revived after battle with 1 HP.

– Added a hotkey (F4) to return the window to its default setting of 1600×900 windowed.

– NPCs are now unlocked for dating throughout the story. Annie after chapter 1, Laurel after chapter 2, Scarlett after chapter 3. Delilah and others will be added later.

– You can now visit the casino during the day to buy alcohol, and the amusement park to buy toys and sweets.

– When talking to a Haremon on the phone, you can now ask her to transform into her other form if she has one.

– Changed the effects of the Bunnysuit and Loincloth (plus their upgraded forms) to be more useful to the Haremon they’re meant for. Added a new effect to the Dark Panties to make them more useful (they now affect both Light and Dark damage) and renamed them to Shadow Panties. Also added a new type of panties (Downy Panties) that raise Speed.

– The game will now remember the window’s position on the screen between play sessions.

– You can now press the X button (or equivalent) to skip to the next turn during the Wait phase in battle. Additionally, the Wait phase will now be skipped altogether when Rush mode is active.

– The effects of Bide now only apply to the first hit of multi-hit attacks.

– Agility buffs no longer apply to non-attack moves.

– You can now manipulate each enemy in a Horde to leave the battle. Also doubled the amount of Star Shards gained from Horde battles.

– Fixed an oversight where Haremon could learn kinks that were supposed to be incompatible with their personality.

– Awakened Haremon no longer automatically have the same BlackBook data unlocked as their base forms. You must ask them questions separately.

– Fixed an oversight where Stained Panties were capped at 3.

– Boosted Passion Petal rewards by about 25%.

– Haremon now get more affection and unique text when drinking their favorite tea.

– Gave Shred an additional effect, since it’s pretty useless against monsters: if the opponent isn’t wearing panties (or if they’re already shredded), it inflicts Bleed instead.

– Nerfed Bitch’s Brew and Love Potion #69.

– Changed the effect of the Play It Cool and Extremophile stickers.

– Fairy Wind now has the added effect of being twice as strong against Dazzled enemies.

– Guild Jobs that are ready to hand in will now be marked “Complete!” on your quest log.

– You can now check your current Wish count on the Status menu.

– Made several existing types of panties craftable.

– The Mistletoe item now only has an effect during December.

– Various other minor tweaks.

– Fixed some errors in Star Shard calculation.

– Fixed a visual bug that caused annoying full-screen flashes on every hit after a certain point in most battles.

– Fixed a bug that could prevent the “collect all outfits” stickers from unlocking.

– Fixed a bug where recoil damage would always deal 1 damage.

– Fixed an oversight where Baton Pass could be used to force a sleeping, frozen, or overwhelmed Haremon to take their turn.

– Fixed an oversight where you could have multiple wishes come true at once.

– Fixed the effect of Circe’s “Ekusupuroujon!” sticker not triggering correctly.

– Fixed an oversight where Vex’s “Hot and Steamy” sticker could not be unlocked due to a missing event in the caverns.

– Fixed a bug where you’d be prompted to heal a Haremon in the “Trap!” event even if they resisted the trap.

– Various other minor bugfixes.

Added the first half of Chapter 4. This includes:

– a new story quest

– a new dungeon

– a new scripted date

– a new H scene

– some new enemies

– a couple of minibosses

– new items, recipes, meals, etc.

– new techniques and kinks

– a new Backup option

– plenty of new music

– Replaced the background art for Longwood, the apartment, the lab, the ranch, the guild, and the shop with completely new, re-drawn, higher quality art.

– Added a brand-new date location, with several events and four unique area backgrounds.

– Added a new mechanic to the Plain of Torment: a temperature gauge which you must keep low in order to avoid overheating (an instant game over).

– Added a carry limit for each item. For example, you can hold up to 20 Potions at a time, but only 3 Goddess Wings. (Don’t worry, if you import a save where some items are over the limit, you won’t lose those items.) There’s a new possibility when landing on the yellow space on the Prize Wheel which allows you to permanently increase an item’s limit by a set amount. Additionally, speaking to Annie after exceeding any item’s limit will activate a feature where items obtained over their limit will be sent to a special Overstock inventory at the shop, where items are available at a hefty discount, essentially letting you “store” excess items and retrieve them for a cost.

– Added over 50 new meals, mainly crafted using new ingredients from the new dungeons. These include Teas that speed up Bonding between certain Haremon, as well as fried foods, snow cones, and mochi.

– Edited and remastered the music for the main menu, bedroom, and laboratory.

– You can now take a screenshot at any time by pressing F3. These are stored in %localappdata%HaremonScreenshots.

– Added an item called the Energy Siphon that allows you to un-Awaken a Haremon mid-battle. You can craft this item with materials found in chapter 3, find it as treasure in the HQ Labs, a gather item in the Fire Temple, or buy it from Annie after completing chapter 3.

– Annie now sells Cookbooks, each of which contains an entire category of recipes (usually 5-6 total). Buying one will automatically add those recipes to your list, and you can also check the recipes from your inventory.

– Made a few changes to the gift system: 1. NPCs now have unique dialogue when given a gift on their birthday, just like Haremon do. 2. Your Lover will now always give you a gift on Christmas. 3. All gifts given to you on Christmas will be unique (and with unique dialogue), rather than pulled from each character’s usual list of potential gifts. 4. Receiving a gift from a Haremon/NPC will now start a cooldown timer so that character can’t give you another gift for a certain number of days.

– You can now choose “Dismiss” in the Tactics menu to dismiss a Backup NPC in battle. You won’t be able to call for Backup again in that battle.

– Gave Jet a new move: Sharpen Claws. This can be tutored to other clawed Haremon and is also known by some monsters.

– Added three new types of Fairy, which are found in the Fairy Fountain event in different dungeons (the normal Fairy is now found only in the Forest, Caves, and Plains.)

– Added an experimental 144hz mode. Press F12 to toggle between 60fps and 144fps. If you try to run 144fps mode on a 60hz monitor, the game will run like shit (and vice versa). This is an EXPERIMENTAL FEATURE, and will cause lots of things to look weird/wrong/fast, so it’s not recommended to use it for normal gameplay. (For example, chance wheels are basically impossible in this mode.)

– Gave Scarlett a strategy to bypass players using Spirit Panties or other means of nullifying her attacks.

– If you try to Analyze an item that you already know all the recipes for, the item will no longer be destroyed.

– Changed the Breast Envy kink to be more useful.

– Added a setting to allow you to automatically turn off Skip mode when a notification box appears (item obtained, affection gained, quest updated, etc.)

– Menacing enemies are now slightly increasingly likely to spawn in later-game dungeons.

– Changed the effect of the Nudist kink and gave the old effect to a new kink.

– Blurred locked environment images on the Navigation screen to prevent spoilers.

– Enemies will now be significantly less likely to inflict you with ailments early in the game.

– Made slight changes to the activation and text of Annie’s Lover H-scene.

– Added a couple new interactions to Delilah at the ranch.

– It’s now impossible to encounter more enemies than you have total Haremon. For example, you only have Miruku and Circe at the beginning of the game, you’ll never encounter 3 enemies at once.

– Gave Stomp an additional effect: always critical if the target is overwhelmed.

– Various other minor additions and tweaks.

– Fixed a bug that prevented the Christmas event from triggering.

– Fixed a bug where Miruku’s Righting Reflex sticker made her essentially invincible to death from poison and other incremental damage.

– Updated the description of the Protection kink to match its new function.

– Added in several Gather vignettes that were missing from the HQ laboratory.

– Fixed a bug where, under certain circumstances, manipulation effects could occur twice.

– Fixed a bug where “burn on contact” and “freeze on contact” effects could trigger from non-damaging techniques.

– Fixed a bug where certain manipulation techniques would increase in accuracy even on successful uses.

– Fixed a bug where replaying the kitsune’s H scene would cause certain flags to be reset, causing certain parts of the story to repeat.

– Fixed a bug where the final boss of chapter 3 could play the final dialogue scene twice and die twice.

– You can no longer disassemble or analyze critical items.

– Annie will no longer flee from Haremon due to Cat and Mouse or the Smelly Panties.

– Fixed an oversight where one of Circe’s stickers became unobtainable if you didn’t learn a certain move during a certain battle. You can now learn that move from a VRM obtained in a certain event. I’m being intentionally vague because I want you to figure it out.

– Fixed a crash when using seduction with the Edging kink equipped

– Attempted to implement a workaround for a rare issue that caused crashes when opening the Load menu.

– Fixed an oversight where certain items were nearly unobtainable due to Kira not being able to actually give you gifts. She will now take a break from work to give you gifts like everyone else.

– Fixed a bug where conditions inflicted by certain moves (such as Bakaretsu and Catnap) could not be cured with certain items and moves.

– Fixed certain meals augmenting AGI and CRIT despite saying they only augment FAPS stats.

– Fixed a bug where the Edging kink checked the HP of the user instead of the target.

– Fixed Striking attacks not being considered physical for some reason.

– Fixed a bug where you could earn Passion Petals by blowing enemies up with Bakaretsu.

– Fixed an oversight that allowed you to accidentally bypass meeting Aqua (and as a result, Serrah) altogether.

– Fixed a bug that caused the chapter 1 boss to sometimes fail to choose an attack.

– Fixed Vex’s face being invisible in the Halloween CG in the Gallery.

– Fixed a bug where manipulating a Flexing enemy and making them go away made it impossible to attack the remaining enemies.

– Fixed an oversight where you could equip the Sheer panties, equip another technique, then change panties, but keep the additional equip slot. Also fixed similar oversights with a few other panties and stickers.

– Fixed a bug where the Furry kink didn’t prevent pleasure from Dirty Talk.

– Repellent and Pesticide no longer removes Annie from the dungeon board.

– Fixed various other minor bugs and typos.

Fixed a crash that happened when triggering a Warp tile on the Pilgrim’s Path.

Fixed a bug created by the previous hotfix that made the Eternal Rivalry quest impossible to complete.

Gave the Fairy Wand a new effect: it now reduces the Allure requirement of all Manipulation techniques by 1.

Ash’s scout ability now permanently scents enemies.

The Chewing Gum item now has an effect identical to the Slow Metabolism skill. The effects stack.

Fixed a crash in the Truth or Dare event.

Fixed a crash when selecting “nevermind” from the Shard Exchange menu.

Fixed a bug where you could gift a girl the Heartsone in exchange for her own gift.

Fixed an oversight where saving the game while you have unread text messages and then loading that save would cause any quest/scene triggered by that text to become completely inaccessible. Yikes.

Fixed a bug where the Perfect-fit Panties and Shielded Panties had no effect due to the change in QTE damage calculation.

Fixed a bug where certain techniques would randomly fail against bosses, including Scent.

Obscene Odor now applies its bonus to Cat Scratch Fever.

Fixed a bug where the Scent info didn’t display properly upon initially Scenting an opponent.

Removed the Third-eye Panties, since they’re pretty much useless now.

A few other minor bugfixes

– Added Ash (the cerberus)’s Lover H scene.

– Completely revamped Daisy (the bunnygirl)’s first H scene with a brand-new CG and about 100 new lines of dialogue.

– Added a simple minigame for mining, fishing, and bug-catching.

– Added the Shard Exchange to the Guild Hall. This is just a way to give Shards some use once you’ve maxed out your Haremon’s moves, by letting you trade Scarlett some of your Shards in exchange for rare items. You can activate this feature by visiting the Guild after accumulating a ton of shards.

– Added a new option to the Bedroom: the TV. You can watch a variety of channels; this will cause time to pass, but has several unique effects like unlocking recipes, buying unique items, improving certain skills, and more. NOTE: only 3 channels are currently implemented. The rest will come in the next build, or maybe even in a patch to this build.

– Added a Gardening system where you can collect seeds, plant them, fertilize and care for them, and then harvest a variety of useful items. You can access this feature by visiting Longwood Gardens during the day. The gardens are unlocked by speaking to Delilah at the ranch. (This location will be available for Dates in a future update; right now, its only use is for gardening.)

– Added a limitation to Awakened forms, due to the new one being OP as hell. There is now a “fatigue” meter below their health bar, which grows when you deal damage, and depletes during the Wait phase. If the meter fills completely, the girl will be forced to revert to her base form, and she won’t be able to transform again until the bar is empty.

– When a girl invites you home to give you a gift, you can now choose to respond by giving her a gift of your own; this offers a small boost in the Affection gained from the gift, and also ignores the “one gift per day” rule.

– Similarly, giving a girl a gift may now cause HER to give YOU a gift in return, if she’s able to. This also serves as an additional way to obtain a Haremon’s “craft” item.

– Added an “Attention” mechanic to the bedroom. Basically, when you invite a girl to your bedroom, she’ll start with a number of Attention points. Most actions you can take in the bedroom either raise or lower Attention, basically serving as a more intuitive limitation than the old “she doesn’t like you enough to do that”. Maximum attention increases with Relationship rank, thus allowing you to do more intimate things and ask more personal questions.

– You can now select a “Let’s chat” option in the bedroom, which includes four options: “how’s it going?”, “what’s on your mind?” , “make small talk”, and “tell me about yourself”. That last option lets you ask Truth or Dare questions in the bedroom; this uses the new Attention mechanic. This means that you can also ask NPCs those questions now, including learning their Secrets.

– Added unique backgrounds to the “Pulling Out” and “Watery Tart” events, including the ancient swords that you find there. (“The Sacred Grove” will have unique art too, it’s just not done yet.)

– There is now a way to talk to Kira in your bedroom: by asking her to stick around after her weekly visit. However, many options (strip, kiss, etc.) are unavailable due to the nature of your relationship and her future role in the story.

– Added a “flash reduction” setting that disables certain flashing-light effects that might be problematic for people with photosensitive epilepsy.

– Added a “cursor memory” option. If enabled, the battle menu will remember which option you chose last, and will highlight that option automatically on your next turn. This applies separately for each battle category, and for each girl. (Note: this information isn’t preserved between battles.)

– The special passive items you get from your Lover are now categorized as “Keepsakes”. You can now only have one Keepsake effect active at a time, and activating one will deactivate the one that’s currently active. To compensate, a few of these items have been buffed/changed. (Note: woops, I forgot to change the item descriptions… so they’re actually called Memento effects for now)

– Changed the effect of the Witch Hat. It now adds a small chance to negate elemental damage (party-wide effect).

– The Fairy Wand now automatically scents ALL enemies instead of just one.

– Sigil of Destruction now targets allies in addition to enemies. (I’m sorry, but this was always the intended behavior.)

– Added a new technique: Noble Aura. This move is learned by the kitsune, and boosts your party’s Fortitude.

– Added screenshots to the tutorials that were lacking them.

– The ranch interface can now scroll to the left and right, since there are now too many Haremon to display them all on that screen.

– Added a few new topics of discussion to the “Let’s talk about…” option for each NPC.

– Scarlett will now thank you when you visit her after completing Chapter 2.

– Removed the “use japanese slang” setting, because who would ever turn that off? (you can still change it in the INI file if you want to for some reason)

– Added a “textbox opacity” setting, with a default value of 90%

– Added height and weight to the information you can learn about Haremon and NPCs. For now it’s in Imperial (American) units, but I might add an option to use metric units in a future build.

– Added a way to switch between Annie’s hairstyles from the bedroom menu (once you’ve unlocked her alternate hairstyle).

– Changed the name of the “crush” relationship level to “confidant” for NPCs. I have my reasons.

– Added a new debug command: “attentive”. This toggles a cheat that lets you bypass the Attention cost of actions in the bedroom.

– The pips at the bottom of the Haremon app now grow larger when your mouse is near them, making them easier to click.

– You can now scroll the To-Do list with the mouse wheel or directional keys if it goes past the bottom of the page. (You would not believe how long this took to get working right.) You can also now hold up/down in the settings app.

– Collecting all the outfits from the Prize Wheel now removes the Outfit space.

– Ranch activity progress now only advances on days where you’ve visited a dungeon, made progress in a quest/guild job, or completed a date. This is to remove an exploit where you could just sleep for weeks and make tons of cash.

– Nerfed the Chastity Belt and Chastity Belt+.

– Fixed a crash when attempting to respawn a monster in the Plains during the Trial and Error quest.

– Fixed a bug where Sigil of Flame and Sigil of Destruction’s added effects never triggered.

– Fixed a bug where the speech patterns of Awakened Haremon could override the speech patterns of their base forms.

– Fixed a bug where you could craft Test Serums after their associated quest was over.

– Fixed a bug where the effect of the Red Glasses could be applied twice on the same dungeon board.

– Added Delilah’s H scene. It can be activated by inviting her to your bedroom and asking her to fuck.

– Added a cute story CGs that is unlocked when you finish Chapter 1. If you import a save where you’ve already passed that point, the CG should be unlocked automatically.

– Added a bunch of new voice clips for the witch, holstaurus, and the kitsune

– Added a new page to the Haremon app, which displays your Haremon’s relationships with each other, including their current opinions of each other. You can also replay bonding scenes from this menu. There are a few known minor graphical bugs with this display, which I’ll attend to soon.

– Added some new techniques, mainly to improve enemy movesets: Spore (lowers target’s speed; usable by Plump Helmet), Life Drain (drains HP from the target; usable by Shrieking Violet), Drill Horn (upgrade of Gore), Smolder (burns an opponent; learned by Vex), Bulk Up (raises Power but lowers Fortitude; learned by Jet; also replaces Scarlett’s Iaijutsu, since that move doesn’t fit with her), Heat Wave (increases the power of Fire-type moves for a few turns; learned by Vex)

– Added 8 new Research Notes, each pertaining to a species of monster.

– Added the ability to Disassemble items in the crafting menu. This lets you destroy an item and recover one of its components (even if you didn’t craft it). Also, the ability to Analyze and Disassemble items is now locked until you’ve learned a certain number of recipes, to provide some sense of progression to the crafting system.

– Added a new dare where your Haremon will snoop through your phone.

– You can now initiate Lover H scenes without waiting on RNG. Simply texting a girl from the bedroom while she’s your lover will initiate the scene (requires that you’ve unlocked her other 3 texts first). These scenes can still be activated the old way, too.

– Changed the name “O’Queef” to a slightly less awful pun, “Stinking Violet”

– Added some dialogue to Vex’s first H scene explaining the whole soul-sucking thing better.

– Added a “sunset” variant of the town screen background for evening.

– To normalize progression somewhat, you must now unlock a girl’s first H scene before she’ll confess to you.

– Added a new kink: Double-Team. When active, tagging out will boost all of the tagged Haremon’s stats. This kink is learned from a magazine which can currently only be obtained from Kira’s “clean my room” task.

– Added a “petals” command, which sets a girl’s Passion Petal count. This functions identically to the “shards” command.

– Added an item called “Passion Blossom”, which gives a Haremon 100 Passion Petals when used. (There is currently no way to obtain these through normal gameplay, but you can access them via the “give” debug command; though there’s really no reason to do so.)

– Added a “scent” command to the debug console, which Scents all opponents without ending the turn.

– Fixed a bug where the nameplate on the textbox had a one-pixel gap in it (yes this is extremely minor and not even worth mentioning but it was bugging me for a long time ok)

– The Mysterious Lens now turns off when you load a game.

– Changed the functionality of the Tsundere kink; it now converts half of received Pleasure into Rage.

– Changed the kink of all Mr. Leaky enemies to “Raw Dog”, which boosts Allure when Fortitude falls.

– Added a confirmation dialogue when overwriting a save file, and when loading a save file from anywhere other than the main menu.

– Nerfed Ignis from 15 damage to 10, in preparation for future moves. To compensate, its Rage cost is now lower.

– Changed the functionality of Burn. Now, once a Haremon’s clothes have all been burned away, she’ll continue to burn, losing health each turn like Poison. This means that burning enemies now causes them to take damage each turn, too.

– Nerfed Illuminate. The boost is now 25-50% instead of 50-75%.

– Removed the 10% random variance on healing moves (because apparently that was a thing? lol)

– Lowered the amount of affection gained on the Bonding screen.

– Aqua can no longer learn Righteous purge (she can still learn it through Manipulation, but there’s no enemies who can teach it iirc)

– Added some gross gooey sounds when fighting Mr. Leakys.

– Changed the nomenclature for transformed Haremon from “Awoken Haremon” to “Awakened Haremon” because English is stupid and grammar is hard

– Slightly lowered the damage done by the Poison status effect.

– Added a “maxbonds” debug command, which maxes out all affection between your Haremon (note that this will only advance them to Companions at the moment, since the other scenes haven’t been written yet!)

– Added the Gargoyle’s first H scene. This will be integrated into the story in Chapter 2, but for now you can activate it by inviting her to your room and asking her to fuck.

– Added a ton of voice clips for the kitsune (battle lines and basic interactions)

– Added more voice clips for Miruku (some new reactions in battle, and various interactions outside of battle)

– Added two new Guild Ranks, complete with over 25 new guild jobs to complete! (a few are in earlier ranks)

– Completely revamped the Mood system. Instead of a Haremon’s mood being a single point on the triangle, it is now a triangle itself. This means that each mood attribute has its own value, so you can (hypothetically) have every mood maxed out simultaneously. There’s too many specifics to explain in detail here, so check the in-game tutorial for more info! Additionally, Seduction techniques now have a Pleasure requirement, to make Lewd stance actually useful and make Seduction characters less OP.

+ Added the ability to re-order techniques in the Haremon app.

+ Added an option to the bedroom menu at night that allows you to replay any sex scene you’ve unlocked.

+ Added a “Take off your clothes” Manipulation command, to make it possible to tame Haremon without dealing damage.

+ Add a “total damage” popup after multi-hit moves

– Made many Guild Jobs MUCH less frustrating/RNG-heavy, in two ways: the required item for fetch quests is guaranteed to occur in its associated event, and the necessary event is (theoretically) guaranteed to occur next time you visit the appropriate dungeon. For example, accepting the “Entomological Educator” job will ensure you trigger the Bug Catching event next time you visit the Plains, and will ensure the bug you can catch there is the correct one for the quest.

– Added new kinks: Gold Digger (+50% gold from manipulation) and Muscle Worship (+25% shards gained). These are learned from magazines obtained as Guild Job rewards.

– Removed the annoying “loneliness” mechanic that caused Haremon to lose affection if you left them too long at the ranch

– Removed the date verification system due to bugs and frustration. Seasonal content will simply be patrons-only until launch.

– “Sort by recent” now puts recently obtained items at the top of the list instead of the bottom

– A few tweaks to the Curse system: Avarice no longer increases the value of sold items (for real this time), the penalty for the Gluttony curse no longer scales with your curse level, the chance of a Haremon retaliating under the Wrath curse was boosted, and the penalty for the Envy curse has been changed to “increases your enemies’ success rate with manipulation”

– Removing a piece of clothing in battle will now always actually remove clothing (previously, outfits with fewer “layers” could sometimes result in no visual change when clothing was removed)

– Added an “actor scale” setting, which lets you choose how near/far characters appear in VN scenes. Default is Far. For now, this setting is hidden (since it can cause some weirdness with certain scenes and effects) but you can still change it by opening the game’s “haremon17.ini” file (located in %localappdata%Haremon) and changing the value of “actor scale” from 1 to 2 or 3.

+ The tiles and events at the Beach are now in set locations, with only a couple tiles offering the chance of an alternate event. Annie’s shop now always occurs on the last tile before the exit.

+ Added a debug command that lets you change your name: “changename [x]”. Unlike most commands, this one is available to C-cup patrons as well as E-cups.

– Haremon’s info on the Contacts list will now reflect their current Form. This means you can invite an Awoken Haremon over to your house. However, they cannot be taken out on a date.

– Removed the “Check” command in battle. Instead, selecting “Scent” will let you check already-scented enemies without ending your turn.

– Significantly reduced the time limit on most guild jobs.

– Removed the “Captivating Beauty” guild job. This may cause some problems with imported saves, so make sure you don’t have this quest active when importing your save.

– Changed the effect of the Sapiosexual kink; it now lets you ignore the Focus threshold of all moves.

– Scene popups (item obtained, affection up, etc.) are now added to the backlog.

– The backlog now persists between scenes (it is still cleared when loading a save file)

– Added a particle effect to the “Desperation” scene for… well, you know…

– The “lost alchemist” can now only be found during the associated Guild Job. Also changed the way her advice works, to make the Mushroom Hunting event more useful.

– Added a (hidden) second use for the Mysterious Lens

– Added a “Special Thanks” section to the credits app

– Added “item added” and “item removed” popups when accepting/canceling certain jobs at the Guild

+ Input icons will now only change due to detected controllers the FIRST time you start up the game (previously, they would always change on startup if there was a controller detected)

– Removed several superfluous settings from the settings menu. They can still be edited manually from the INI if you absolutely need to. This also means your settings will be reset upon starting the new build.

– Added a “resolution” setting to the settings menu. You can choose from 7 preset resolutions, or just stretch the window.

+ Resizing the game window will now maintain the game’s aspect ratio.

– Fixed a crash when a Haremon uses the Breastmilk technique

– Fixed some bugs in the “Napping Horde” event: returning from battle no longer sends you to the wrong point in the scene, the background is no longer absent, the fox ghost sprites are no longer cut off at the top, and the counter now decreases only when you KO a spirit, not the foxes themselves.

– Fixed a bug that caused you to obtain a contact for an Awoken Haremon, meaning you could date her in her Awoken form

– Fixed several clothing-related bugs: Vex now wears her earring at all times; aqua no longer wears her collar with the wrong outfits; the kitsune now removes her socks before her bra as intended; Jet no longer takes off her bra early; Miruku’s maid collar is now removed when her dress is; Miruku now wears a collar with her swimsuit; Aqua’s bra straps are now visible beneath her dress in her default outfit

– Fixed a few buggy Truth or Dare interactions, like Jet not telling you her secret, and Miruku telling you the wrong birthday.

– Fixed a bug where you could have Miruku in your party in both forms.

– Fixed a bug where you could fail Guild Jobs that weren’t even active.

– Fixed a bug that prevented Passion Petals from being gained

– Fixed some bugs with the Lucky Bell and Red Glasses.

– Gather tiles now properly display their Star count.

– You can no longer get duplicates of certain Gather items (panties, totems, etc.) using the Scavenger ability.

– Fixed a bug where texting Scarlett for the second time would fail if you were at guild rank 0

– Fixed a crash in a certain story-related battle.

– Fixed a bug where Shadow Circe’s active kink was shown as “NULL” and you could learn a “NULL” kink from her

– Fixed a bug where you couldn’t close the Load screen on the main menu (also removed the flash that happens when you do this)

– Fixed the hitbox on tutorial buttons in battle (the camera movement made it almost impossible to click them before). Also, hitting “back” on page 1 of a tutorial now closes it (only when viewing from the Help app or the battle menu)

– Fixed a bug where the wrong voice clips could play on the victory screen

– Fixed a bug where quest-related items weren’t removed from your inventory when you cancel an active Guild Job, or when one expires.

– Fixed a bug causing some settings to be impossible to alter without the mouse

– Fixed a bug where the Kink menu couldn’t be navigated without the mouse

– Fixed a crash when opening the Kinks page of the Haremon app

– Fixed a bug where a certain event in the Caverns would send you to the beginning of the game

– Fixed a freeze in the Imp fight

– Fixed a crash when beginning the Beach date

– Fixed a bug where the events at the Beach (and possibly other areas) didn’t work

– Fixed a bug where you couldn’t gain Passion Petals (for REAL this time!)

– Fixed a bug where Mood stats could fall below 0, making all moves un-usable

– Fixed a bug where the Fast Forward toggle didn’t speed up attack animations

– Fixed all crafting quests

– Fixed a bug where the witch could appear in a certain scene as a floating pair of eyeballs.

– Fixed a bug where enemies wouldn’t recover from being overwhelmed.

– Fixed a bug where you could scroll too far on the Kinks screen on the Haremon app.

– Fixed the color of icons on the Bag menu.

– Fixed the default actor scale being set to 2 instead of 1.

– Fixed the Graphics settings menu changing the wrong settings when using a keyboard/gamepad.

– Fixed a bug where girls would appear nude in the flashbacks during the “Story Time” event

– Fixed the Beach and Temple events not working (for real this time!)

– Fixed a bug where your party couldn’t be overwhelmed

– Fixed a crash when viewing the Kink menu in battle

– Fixed a bug that made the Crimson Katana quest impossible to complete under certain conditions

+ Added a sex scene for the first Awoken Haremon. This scene is activated by simply going to sleep once you’ve completed the Crimson Katana quest.

– Added a bunch of new voice clips for Clarabelle and Vex (in battle, dungeons, and the bedroom). [Sidenote: balancing hundreds of voice clips is tedious and takes forever, so please bear with me; some of the new clips will probably be too loud/too soft.]

– Added several new moves: Cat Nap (learned by Miruku; cures all conditions and inflicts Sleep to restore HP), Copy Cat (learned by Miruku; uses the target’s last-used technique), Cat Scratch (learned by Miruku, as a replacement for Scratch; it’s identical to Scratch, but with different upgrades), Cat Scratch Fever (upgrades from Cat Scratch; has a chance to inflict poison), Cat Fight (upgrades from Cat Scratch; the user and the target scratch the shit out of each other; tears clothes more easily), Lullaby (learned by Aqua; puts an enemy to sleep), Sobering Slap (learned by Clarabelle; cures Overwhelmed and recenters an ally’s Mood). Be careful with Copy Cat, as there are a ton of possibilities so it may cause a bug or two.

– Added some daily events: on Sundays, Annie has a sale where everything is 10% off. On Tuesdays and Thursdays (after completing “The Lady in Black”) you’ll be able to buy panties at the shop, but not from Annie…

– Added a new sidequest: “Classified Materials”. This quest involves retrieving Laurel’s stolen research papers from the Temple. It’s given to you during The Crimson Katana, but if you’ve already finished that quest, it will be added to your quest tracker upon importing your save.

– Added a feature to learn more about the lore of Haremon. After completing the “Classified Materials” sidequest, you’ll be able to find more of Laurel’s research papers scattered throughout the various dungeons. You can read these from the Items menu, and each offers a short snippet of lore based on Laurel’s research. You can then turn them in to Laurel for cash. There are currently 13 of these to find, but many more will be coming later.

– Increased all Haremon and monsters’ max HP by approximately 2.5x, as well as all damage calculations. (This is intended to make the effects of damage boosts/reductions more noticeable.) As a result, healing items/moves have also been buffed.

– Guild Jobs now have a time limit, given in days. If you don’t complete the quest in time, it’ll expire, and you won’t be able to complete it. You’ll get a text from Scarlett telling you when a job has expired. By default, the time limit of all quests is 7 days.

– Changed the way E-cup patrons are honored in-game. Their names now comprise a list of the “citizens” of Dickenside, which is used in two places: first, they are used as questgivers at the Guild, appearing on the Job Board and the To-Do app. Second, they are used as the names of Professor Laurel’s former lovers; speaking to her about the “Conquests” topic will let you choose a patron name and read a short diary entry about her sexual encounter with that person (each patron gets their own completely unique entry!)

+ Added a Kink subpage to the Haremon app, where you can view the kinks your Haremon have learned, along with their effects and Pleasure threshold

– Added a new resource: Passion Petals. These are a non-combat counterpart to Star Shards. You can obtain them by completing a battle without dealing ANY damage (by seducing enemies and asking them to leave). Unfortunately, I ran out of time this month to implement their usage, but that will come soon!

+ Added a “skip collection scenes” option to the Settings menu. If ON, this will skip the scene that happens when you land on a Gather tile (but still gives you an item)

+ Haremon can now move straight to any uncovered tile in the dungeon as long as there are uncovered tiles connecting it to her current tile.

+ Vex’s “Hades Spear” attack is no longer an upgrade of Jab; instead, you can unlock it as a new move for 666 shards. Also, it now distributes its damage evenly among all remaining opponents (it deals 1.5x damage if there’s 2 enemies, and 3x damage if there’s only 1 enemy), to make it worth the massive Shard investment.

– Vex’s Power has been raised from 2 to 3.

– Added a few new crafting recipes, including a few existing gifts, a new panties upgrade (Edible Panties) and a few “refined” crafting materials for crafting higher-end items. A new material called Platinum Ore can now be obtained (very rarely) by mining or opening high-level chests in the Caverns.

– Improved the appearance of QTE prompts and dungeon tiles.

– Changed the “one-handed mode” setting to “prompt mode”. This setting now lets you choose between using your left hand (ZXCV) or your right hand (mouse or arrow keys) for QTEs, since using the arrow keys better mimics the directionality of the gamepad face buttons.

– Sped up Choice Spinners’ begin and end animations, as well as the rate at which they speed up and slow down (not including when they’re nudge-able)

– New condition: Sleep. This renders a girl/monster immobile (like Freeze), but gradually restores HP.

– New item: Hot Coffee. Cures Sleep.

– New item: Running Shorts (panties). Allows the wearer’s party to escape from battle instantaneously.

– New item: Nightie (panties). Recover twice as much HP when Asleep.

– Removed the “Malign Magnetism” job from the Guild, as it’s no longer completeable.

– Added audio jingles to guild quest popups

– Added a “setday” command to the debug console; use it with a parameter (e.g. “setday monday”) to set the current day of the week

– Kira now starts with 50% Affection, since you’re supposed to be lifelong friends.

+ You can now press Up at the top of a submenu in battle to go to the bottom, and vice-versa.

– Removed the ability to purchase the Mysterious Lens using NILE (because it voids the Affection gain)

– Added the “dialogue choices” tutorial (this was actually added in 0.15, but a bug prevented it from being displayed)

– Ever so slightly altered some early-game dialogue to make some lore more consistent

+ Heavily nerfed all enemies encountered before taming Circe

– Reminded Kira to wear her glasses.

– Made certain NPC texts occur automatically at certain points in the story.

– Certain quests now advance time to Evening instead of Night, to allow you another action that day.

– Fixed voucher tooltips

– Added a “Battle” page to the Settings menu

– Changes to debug commands: the “repel” debug command now works with the new encounter system, simply clearing all monsters from the board; the “town” debug command no longer locks the dungeon; the “setclothes” debug command now works on enemies

– Doubled the Affection gained from completing “large” dungeons (Path & Temple) [to 8]. Affection gained from dungeon completion is also now Fixed, meaning it’s unaffected by Personality and other modifiers

– Tweaked the way success chance is boosted for Manipulation techniques that have previously failed, and tweaked the base success chance for a couple of them

– Lowered Scarlett’s Speed and raised her Power

– Doubled the effect of the “Irresistible” kink

– Added flavor text when selecting a Stance in battle

– Flex now prevents multi-target moves from damaging anyone but the flexer. Similarly, Pacify now prevents multi-target moves from damaging the pacifier.

– Added a very rare, very dumb easter egg to the Oni enemy

– More effects are now displayed in the Status menu in battle. These include Flexing, Biding, and effects caused by Curses.

– Increased the extra money gained from manipulation and guild quests when under the Avarice curse

+ The Avarice curse no longer increases money gained by selling items, and the Shopping Spree no longer stacks with Annie’s affection discount. These changes are necessary to prevent an exploit where you could make infinite money by selling items back to Annie for more than you spent on them

– Added a new item: Work Briefs. These panties increase the effects of all activities at the ranch.

+ Star Panties now affect Shards gained at the Ranch

– New debug command: “tomorrow” (instantly advances time to the next morning)

– Adjusted the value of many types of panties, to better reflect their usefulness. Also removed some panties from the possible prizes from the Prize Wheel.

– Added a new dialogue box type for displaying “notes” (diaries, signs, etc.)

– Raised the drop rate of Silver Vouchers in chests and Bronze Vouchers on Gather tiles. Also, you can now find Gold Vouchers in chests that have 2 or more stars.

– Clarabelle now starts off knowing Striptease instead of Gore.

– Added Kira to the game. If you’ve played the prologue, you’ll recognize her. She’s encountered near the beginning of the game.

– Added a new CG: Kira’s selfie. This can be obtained by texting her from your bedroom (see below).

– Completely revamped the Time system. There are now four times of day: morning, afternoon, evening, and night. Certain actions cause time to pass, and each action can only be performed during certain times of day. Later on, there will be some time-sensitive mechanics that will force you to choose your actions carefully!

– Reworked some existing H scenes to integrate them naturally into the game’s story. The scenes for Miruku, Circe, and Clarabelle are currently integrated, and will occur automatically as you progress through the story (without any Affection requirements). The other girls’ scenes will be integrated like this eventually; for now, you can still activate those the old way (invite a girl to your bedroom and ask her to fuck).

– Added a new option to the Tactics menu: Tag Out. This option switches the active Haremon with one of your benched Haremon.

– Most common enemies that occur in multiple environments now have colored variants, including two secret, ultra-rare enemies. For example, Mr. Leaky is blue and is found in the Caverns, while a pink variant called Mr. Goopy is found in the Plains.

– Added a new way to receive texts and selfies, removing all RNG. You can now text a girl from your bedroom during Evening. The third time you text a girl, you’ll receive her selfie. (But you can still obtain texts and selfies the old way, too.) Your texting progress is tracked on the Contacts list when sending a text. Texting a girl after you’ve received her selfie will just boost her affection a bit.

– The “show me your tits” option (in the scene at Laurel’s lab after taming Circe) now actually does something…

– Added a few new moves to Daisy’s moveset: Roundhouse, Baton Pass, and Tantrum.

– You can now visit Hangout locations without a date. Each location offers a unique benefit, at the cost of advancing time.

– Since inviting a girl over now expends time, gifts are now 33% more effective.

– When fighting a Haremon, the HP bar is replaced by a “clothing” meter, since that’s how those battles actually operate.

– Due to sex being integrated into the story now, ending a date with over 75 affection now triggers an instant confession scene instead of a sex scene.

– Slightly altered Circe’s movepool to make her solely Ice-focused (to better match her personality, and give Vex more of a unique element.)

– Several additional changes to improve quality-of-life and slightly boost performance.

– Added more voice acting for Miruku and Circe

– Implemented partial voice acting for Clarabelle and Vex

– Replaced the Monarch’s sex scene with a new one. The old sex scene is now her Lover scene.

– Expanded the catgirl’s first sex scene, adding a memory sequence that includes the two CGs from the Prologue.

– Added some new techniques and reworked some Haremon stats/movesets, specifically to make Clarabelle a more capable healer, and Aqua a more focused Seduction user.

– Nerfed the Rock-Hard, Foxy, and Biceptual kinks. Their stat boosts are now HALF of your current Pleasure. They also no longer override more powerful boosts.

– You can now zoom out when viewing “selfie” CGs in the gallery.

– You can now preview info about upgraded techniques before upgrading them, even when there’s only one option or you’re using the Punching Bag.

– Fixed a bunch of bugs

– Other minor changes, additions, and tweaks

– Fixed a bug that “erased” your Ranch data. See this post to learn how to easily fix this issue. (Not needed if you didn’t go to the ranch in the 0.14 update)

– Fixed a crash when it’s Aqua’s turn in the dungeon.

– Fixed a critical error in the game load script

– Implemented Circe’s Lover sex scene

– Replaced Circe’s selfie CG with a brand-new one

– Implemented partial voice acting for Miruku, Circe, and Laurel. This includes voices in battle, the bedroom, the lab, and some other random voices here and there. More coming in the next build!

– The bag now has pockets for different item types, and can be sorted by name, value, etc. CAUTION: this can be very slow when the bag has hundreds of items. Also reduced lag in the Items app caused by having a lot of items in the bag.

– Added a “Call someone” option to the Bedroom menu, so you can invite girls over directly from the bedroom

– You can now make calls from the dungeon (but you can’t invite someone over or ask them on a date)

– Instead of receiving a text from Scarlett, completing (or progressing) a guild job will now show a popup on screen. The quest list will also now list quest progress (for example, “Kill 5 Plump Helmets (2/5)”)

– Added a popup for rewards gained on the Guild Job board

– Enemies are now visible on the dungeon screen. They move on their turn (after your party has moved) and battles will only start when one of your party members is on the same tile as a monster. This also makes the Bunnygirl and Monarch appear on the map, making them much easier to find. This also changes Repels: Repellant clears the board of monsters; Suppressant (a new item) prevents them from respawning, and Pesticide (formerly Super Repellant) does both.

– Transitions in town are quicker, with areas fading into one another, rather than fading to/from black.

– Added tooltips to the “Totem Tutor” event, telling you which Haremon are capable of learning a technique from a particular totem

– Added tooltips to the Manipulation menu in battle, telling you if there’s any learnable techniques or kinks from an overwhelmed enemy

– Updated the Scent and Check display to be more legible, as well as now including the items you can get by Manipulating an enemy

– Added a “Feed me!” manipulation technique, which increases your Food count.

– Added a limit to stored text messages, preventing tons of lag (and reducing save file size) when you’ve received a ton of texts

– Replaced the music at the Ranch with a new track

– Replaced the music at the Beach with a new track. The old track is now used for the events Beach Bash and Beach Battle.

– The first few scenes in the game have been tweaked slightly to be more consistent with the Prologue

– Altered some structural elements to make the early quests flow into each other more intuitively

– Added the “Crimson Katana” quest. This is the conclusion to the first “Chapter”, and focuses on recovering Miruku’s memories. It introduces 2 new dungeons (each with several new events), 3 boss fights, a new CG, and 2 new Haremon (see below). Upon completing “The Lady in Black”, you will be able to access the new content by talking to Professor Laurel about Miruku’s nightmare.

– Added a new Haremon: the Gargoyle. She can be encountered during The Crimson Katana

– Added another new Haremon, which I won’t spoil!

– Completely reworked the witch’s sex scene with an all-new CG and more expansive dialogue. The old CG is no longer in the game, but it can still be found in the Special Edition folder. If you’ve already unlocked her old CG, you can just have sex with her again to view the scene.

– Added a Valentine’s Day sex CG, accessible between the 10-20 of February (or any time for patrons!). You can access it by completing a small quest given to you by one of your Haremon during this time. You’ll also receive some unique items.

– During the Valentine’s event, you also have a chance of receiving special gifts from Haremon, namely Sweets and Flowers. Additionally, Haremon are more likely to accept your offers for sex.

– Added the gargoyle’s ecchi CG – Added Scarlett’s ecchi CG – Added Delilah’s ecchi CG

– Added many new techniques (most are for the new Haremon, but a few are for existing ones)

– Added a bunch of new kinks, obtained from new enemies and events.

– Removed the tedious, arbitrary requirement of finding a Sunflower for the monarch. She’ll now join you as soon as you tame her.

– Altered some battle mechanics to make low-Fortitude Haremon less fragile

– You can now raise Annie’s affection by buying items

– Added a “filter” option to the To-Do app

– You now receive a Haremon’s unique panties after you have sex with her.

– Added a bunch of dialogue to each NPC’s “Let’s talk about…” option

– Added a hint system. You can now call Professor Laurel at any time using the Phone app and select “I need help” to get a hint pertaining to any of your active quests.

– Many other tweaks, changes, additions, and bugfixes

[Changes marked with a * were suggested by players on Discord!]

– Added the catgirl’s Lover sex scene and CG. If you’re Lovers with the catgirl (and you’ve already unlocked her normal sex CG), there’s a chance you’ll receive a text from her inviting you to have sex. This will initiate a new scene where you’ll get to experiment with her kinky side. This will be the way sex scenes will work from here on: normal sex scenes will be pretty vanilla, while Lover sex scenes will often involve a fetish of some sort. This will hopefully allow the game to have both broad appeal and a bit of niche content.

– Added a Halloween-themed sex CG. You’ll have to play the game ON Halloween (October 31) to unlock it! (And no, changing your PC’s time won’t work!)

– Added a unique seasonal outfit for each Haremon! These are autumn-themed recolors with some additional Halloween-y accessories. Speak to Annie to learn how to obtain these.

– Implemented the beginning of the “Mixed-up Memories” quest. You can initiate it at any time by visiting the professor’s lab and choosing to “register” the catgirl. This quest must now be activated before you can meet the Lady in Black in the Shimmering Caverns.

– Added a few other Halloween-themed features and easter eggs that can only be activated during October.

– Added three new techniques: “Milked Dry” (upgrade Breastmilk), “Death Glare” (learned by Imp),  and “Steel Shredder” (upgrade Claw)

*- Added a short scene after battling the bunnygirl that tells you you can’t tame her without the Test serum.

*- Added a better quest description to the Captivating Beauty quest

*- In events that ask you to use a potion, you can now use other healing items if you don’t have potions (Trap, The Lost Alchemist, wounded monster, branching paths)

*- Added tooltips to the town menu showing the time when a closed area will open in the morning

*- Added clickable quantity arrows when selling items in the shop

– Added several AI improvements, hopefully making battles more interesting/challenging

– You can no longer give a girl the same gift twice.

– Buffs and debuffs now diminish on a curve, rather than linearly (they deplete slowly at first, and then more rapidly over time). Most stat-buffing moves have also been nerfed in order to work with this system.

– Using Scent (or Check) now shows the effects of the enemy’s active Kinks

– Adjusted all technique levelup costs

[Items with a * were suggested by players]

– Added the Imp’s selfie CG

– Added the bunnygirl’s selfie CG

– Added swimsuits for EVERY Haremon and NPC (see below!)

– Added the ability to ask your Haremon out on a Date. You can ask a girl out by calling her on the Phone app. There is currently only 1 date area: the beach (several more will come later!) You can unlock this area by speaking to Scarlett in the guild hall. This date is essentially a mini-dungeon with no monsters and lots of random mini-events. You’ll encounter familiar NPCs, all dressed in brand new swimsuits! Complete events to collect Sand Dollars, which you can trade in with Annie in exchange for new items, including swimsuit items that will allow you to set your Haremon to wear their swimsuits all the time! At the end of the dungeon, you’ll gain a large amount of Affection. If her Affection is high enough, you might even get a “special” reward!

– Added several new events across all dungeons. The new events are Gone Fishing (forest), Diamonds in the Rough (caves), A Fork in the Road (caves/forest), Desperation (plains/caves), and Giving Her a Ride (forest/caves). There are also several new events in the Beach date. Additionally, a few small, uninteresting events have been removed.

– Added relevant screenshots to all tutorials

– Importing saves from a previous version will now cap all characters’ Affection at 99%

– All CGs and backgrounds have been downsized to minimize memory usage, reduce filesize, and improve performance. The only effect this will have is that you can no longer zoom in very far on CGs in Gallery mode. (Full-res CGs are still available to $10 patrons.)

– Did a ton of tweaking with how the game manages texture memory. This will hopefully improve overall performance, but adds some short pauses between roooms while textures are loaded and unloaded.

*- Added “how to unlock” hints on all CGs in the Gallery

*- You can now toggle Fast-Forward in battle by pressing SELECT/SHIFT

*- The bunnygirl’s sex CG has been reformatted so that it no longer requires scrolling.

– Various minor bugfixes, tweaks, and additions
