Tweaks

• Dragon voice lines have been applied more consistently across captive interactions.
• Music direction has been added to the protean, infernal, and warlock preparations for Pale Rock.
• The dynamic soundtrack has been extended into Malagar’s most recent experiments.
• If you are in Power Fantasy mode and have not recruited any hordes by the start of Act IV, the swamps will start off conquered (to avoid an unwinnable fight). Valzira is assumed to have fled, in this case.
• Animations have been temporarily disabled in Heloise’s initial encounter, whilst we try to work out why the hell it keeps crashing.
• Language selection layout on the main menu has been tweaked
• The developer interview has been updated.
• Game credits have been updated.
• Some background features have been added to support functionality in future releases.

Fixes

• Fixed a broken line of code during Naho’s experiment.
• The scene art in Heloise’s dream sequence is no longer mismatched.
• Heloise’s animated idles have tidier hair.
• Issa has been reminded to face the right way around, again.
• The animation for Operation Sexy Rescue no longer features a giant red square.
• Heloise’s waifu scenes have a more consistent background.
• Applied some fixes to the Chinese (Traditional) translation.
• Restored the Act I translation for German.
• Resolved code formatting issues with the German translation.
• And the many, many bugs found in our playtests. Thank you, playtesters!
