I've been thinking about reducing the amount of negative traits required after unlocking a certain perk at the skill tree, it will probably be added in the near future !

Diogaoo

Sadly, HC1 is fully hosted by Milovana, that’s one of the reasons why I’m giving priority to HC2 development

Diogaoo

Whoops, I thought I had fixed that before releasing, thanks for letting me know, Spawniz

MiniMegaHammer

Can I recommend reducing the amount of negative traits you need to pick to 1? Or maybe 2. Right now there isnt much choice in what traits exist and it just feels weird having to pick so many of them.

Milovania is dead/unresponsive; is there any way you could share the latest version of HC1? Thank you!

Lexi's cowgirl sound sticks around even after you defeat her. I tried to reload the save but it's still there. But once you encounter a different enemy that uses the same sound and defeat her it goes away.

MiniMegaHammer

Yes I have noticed, I never do what I'm supposed to

Diogaoo

Yeah, even though these new bosses were pretty time consuming to develop, it's not certain that they show up every run, which is kinda of a bummer, but at the same time, they add a much-needed replayability. Also, I don’t know if you have already noticed it, but Sigrid is not supposed to be defeated by HP, her encounter ends after around 20 turns

Hey Joe, Serenity’s Shawl is the Victoria Legendary Acessory, it deals damage equal to the Hero’s CON when Waiting It’s description should’ve been available at the Backpack, I’ll get it fixed for 0.4

LockeandKeynes

Lucy and Angel drop an accessory recipe, Serenity's Shawl. No Idea what it does as it doesnt have a description and its not in the update post, but it requires 3 Fabric and 1 Rubber Band

MiniMegaHammer

Heya, I like the new update. I have to say though because the updates are (in terms of gameplay) quite short it is a bit of a chore to play them every time. Nethertheless, I do like the new bosses. I dont know what compels me to keep playing this in hard mode but I do. Lets see if I can actually beat down Sigrid some time.

Hi Tortellini, the way persistent data is stored has been modified in version 0.30, apparently your game is trying to access an achievement from version 0.25 or earlier, which no longer exists. Please delete your persistent data folder at "...\AppData\Roaming\RenPy\HeroCorruption2-1648729160" I know it's an inconvenience, but I really had to make some changes to the code, I'm trying to keep this kind of change to a minimum, but sometimes it's unavoidable, let me know if it works. (You may have to delete your save folder located in the game's folder too 😥)

Sorry Ninetales, maybe I couldn't express myself properly. The game randomly selects bosses at the start of each run. If Mila has appeared at the Forest by day four, she will be the Forest boss for that entire run Keep in mind that the Swamp boss is a Shemale, so if you have the Shemale option turned off, you'll always encounter Victoria. Also, the Jungle doesn't have a boss yet, they were added to the Forest, Deep Forest and Swamp(Shemale)

Got an exception trying to look at my achievements: ``` I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred. While loading : OSError: Couldn't find file 'gui/achievements/amy_icon.jpg'.

There's definitely an issue somewhere if it's not pre-determined which boss you get at the start of the run. I skipped through 40 in game days and the only message I got for the swamp boss was about someone meditating. I cannot get the other boss. Same for the dark woods.

Ninetales1793

So it's not pre-determined which boss you'll get on a new run? Swear I played through like 15 days without them ever changing lol

Diogaoo

Yep, she will spare you once you got the new negative trait. I guess this can be a bit confusing, I might change the dialogue to "Lexi spared you" or something similar

Diogaoo

It really depends on your luck, when I was playtesting I also happen to encounter the same bosses over and over again, it can be mindly infuriating...

Diogaoo

For sure ! There will be two branches of traits, both good and bad. I just need to decide a few things before advancing with this type of content

LockeandKeynes

If you cum to Lexi and win the corruption checks, you get rewards for defeating her and she doesn't show up anymore. Is this intended? None of the other enemies work like this

Ninetales1793

How do you actually try out the new bosses? Every time a boss appears it's one of the old ones :/

Fabien

Thank you, that's actually really awesome and seeing the formulas is really helpful. I have to say, I really like the new purity perk in the skill tree. It's definitely a huge boost if you play safely, and once you unlock that node it feels like you have earned a really impactful ability. Are you thinking of adding more positive and negative unlockable perks throughout the skill tree as you build it out? I really like the idea of unlocking perks through the skill tree, as it's much more dynamic and gives more options.

Diogaoo

Hey Ryainn! Corruption mainly influences the damage received from lust attacks and the probability of triggering a Bad End, here are the formulas if you are interested: Damage received from Lust Attack: 'currentLust' += int((('corruption')*((100-'corruptionResistance')*0.01)) + (('addictionValue')*((100-'addictionResistance')*0.01))). The final value is further multipled by 1.5x if the Hero has the corresponding "Lover" Bad Trait and +5% of the total Lust if the Hero is Naked Bad Endings: (('addictionValue')-('conValue'*0.5)) >= 50 or (('corruptionValue')-('conValue'*0.2)) >= 10
