IslanDeity 4.21a hotfix: all around update.
🕑 Added 2025-01-05 15:51:37 +0000 UTCHello, hello, I hope you've all had a great holiday.
Here is the next update of the game; a lot of it involves underlying code.
Now I'm working hard to tie all the features up together so the game's flow works better. I haven't really had much time to send this out to testers, so please report any bugs you find under this post or in the discord.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hotfix 0.421
Thank you so much for pointing these out so I could get onto fixing them asap.
Fixed Merrill and other npcs showing draugirl clothes.
Fixed tribute not saving (Will need confirmation)
Fixed potion crashing the game.
Removed option to trade from Ezzy (As I was still in development with that and forgot to turn it off)
Gifting UI should reset back to normal.
Anyway, this was as quick a fix as possible. Really, really sorry for the people who experienced these bugs!

Whats new?

Tribute is now a form of currency you can acquire; tribute can be increased from various acts, such as evolving a personality or interacting in the encounter system.
Things that increase tribute.
Evolving/breaking personality.
Defile climax.
Defile faint.
There will be new options in the future.
There will be some balancing as this system has just been added.
You will be able to spend tribute at Teotl's peak; here she can help the character "recall" abilities from former chosen.
Skills.
Defile
Engage with defeated enemies.
Gifted
You're aura makes people more accepting of gifts from you.
Meaning you can give crafted items to encountered NPCs.
Please understand they might not like every gift >.>
S.positions.
There are only two purchaseable options as of right now, which seemed mean just to unlock every animation you've all seen behind a grind.
Froggy: Reworked version.
Strangulation: a new defile type position that can be used in encounters.
New temporary personality type: Captivated.
New recipe: Weak potion of lust.
[Spoiler] for the recipe.
Although there isn't really a way in game to find out what the recipe is.
Rabbit M/Rabbit M/Rabbit M + Teabur flower.
What this potion does.
Well, with the new gifting ability, you can convince them to consume them.
Other things.
Been really concerned about optimization as the game gets bigger. I've reduced some script sizes, but please let me know if it runs worse or better.
The encounter system has been completely rearranged and looks a lot better now.
You can now faint/die during dungeons.
The player character has a third skin option to disable everything but the hand and other areas.
Couple of minor bug fixes.
Anyway, with this new loop, I can start introducing features tying into this into the upgrading and story. Next update, I'll hope to add Shop and the premade monster girl I've already made.
Anyway, thank you so much!
I will update you all as soon as I can do my best to keep out regular updates this year.

glad to help :)

Hey Jaevulen, thank you for finding this. looks like a major issue as a new item type was introduced. Believe I've fixed it.
Jaevulen
yeah exactly, when I get fruit by banging my head in the tree i can see it in my inventory. but when I get back to camp and theres a loadingscreen, the inventory is empy. except for the tribute. EDIT: just tried it again on a new save to make sure its not a one time thing and its still the same: get fruit and have it in inventory, go into camp, fruit gone.
Folorn Faun
Hey, could you elaborate here? I haven't encountered this before, ever. Getting fruit from local exploration then going back to camp makes it disappear
Rasmus Jensen
No worries, I found an additional bug, after talking to Gertrude before the spider boss, the entire screen just freezes. The game can still be played, but the screen doesnt refresh, its just the last frame of the conversation. The option menu still works, but other than that, nothing works. All that happens when you move your mouse is that it leaves after images on the screen, as if you're drawing using the mouse.
Folorn Faun
God that's my bad, my mind has been all over the place so it escaped me, I will remember next time. Sorry.
Jaevulen
only humans
Rasmus Jensen
Hey Faun, I see you didnt implement the "Emergency end scene" button, will that be added any time soon? I've gotten stuck in scenes twice now, and its annoying having to restart the game each time. (It happened when I tried leaving the scene where you hold a Goblin up in the air without doing anything else)
Jaevulen
items disappear from inventory (fruit etc) when you go back to camp now after the latest hotfix :)
UncG
Confused as to how defile works. It doesn't show up as an option for defeated enemy. Is it only with humans?
leodon
Perhaps we can let NPCs do some things, such as mining and planting
Jaevulen
dont feel bad about the bugs :) its to be expected with new updates. youre doing a great job.
Bob Klaumeister
Great oberview of the bugs you have found so far. There are some I was up to forward to faun as well, but they are already mentioned from you.
Folorn Faun
Trading isn't in 4.2 as of yet, will be coming soon.
Jaevulen
Amazing update as always :) really nice that youve gotten a more fleshed out gameplay loop. Bugs ive found thus far: 1. you can still talk to merrill in the beginning in her room even after she has been moved to the dungeon and corrupted. also in the dungeon she talks about being let lose from her cuffs so she can change into cute clothes but i couldnt find any such option. (maybe this is just on the to-do-list since its the intro). her quest is also still in the journal uncompleted even after the whole intro is over. 2. some clothes seem to miss textures, its just a featureless gray model. 3. I couldnt leave Ezzys shop after i opened it. could not find an option to leave. 4. if you try to slap the chest area of a slave the prompt will fail and you cant slap again until you change position. 5. when i tried going into paired animation with a goblin she was still standing alone and when i tried clicking first person the game crashed. only problem on low devotion. 6. the cuffed doggy position made an aggressive slave stop talking and i suddenly couldnt leave the sex enivorment. had to restart. 7. sometime dialogue lines from npcs are shown twice. 8. earned tribute seems to be lost when going to homebase entrance. 9. deleting a slave while i had her in view in the dungeon created bug too. couldnt leave. 10. when you take gertrude to the old temple in the jungle the game freezes after the conversation after the spiders
Bierchen
And i can´t leave the shop ^^

Tribute is always set to zero when you leave the village. I had collected over 1000 but when I wanted to go to the altar there were 0 tributes in the inventory

Say, how do you trade? I've been trying to pass fruits to the vendor but nothing seems to be sold.
Bob Klaumeister
Thanks for the update. I'll test it and let you know, if I discover some bugs. I guess a new save might be recommand. Will try with my current progress first and then with new game.
