🕑 Added 2016-06-12 21:43:28 +0000 UTC Hey everyone!I've spent last week cleaning up the fighting engine code. Now it will be a lot easier and safer to make changes. I also found and fixed 2 minor bugs while I was back there, so that's good. Lastly, I created the Payton training portion. It's only the bare bones right now but I plan to add the story line for it at some point this month.
If you guys want to chitchat about the game, I've made 2 treads for it here:

For this week, I plan to look at the fighting system as a whole. A note that I got a lot is that it feels too random. I'll experiment with some variations to see if I can address that. Also, if I have time, I still need to add the cheat and save functions.

Yep! It's in for the next build.

Will there ever be a save point for the game?

I am talking about the war system. Enemy specific events are in the plans but I'll probably just get to them much later as it's low priority. I did think about having events if Vanora lost duels but I am always wary of putting sex scenes for losing. That's one of my pet peeve in porn games.

Good Idea. There could also be some kind of "Reward" if Payton fights and wins.

That does sound good. The lower Vanora's fighting stats are the greater the chance for her to be humiliated in combat by the monsters...

The idea of a "Vanora Overrun" event is intriguing, but I think it would only really make sense if she lost a challenge.

When you say the fighting system, are you referring to armies or individual combat? While I'm actually fond of army combat as it is, you could certainly flesh it out with enemy specific events. For example, maybe harpies get their own "Aerial Ambush" event or goblins get a "Vanora Overrun" event where the pesky blighters get a little frisky with our favorite soldier?
