Adventurer Trainer [v0.2.1a] [PastryIRL]

v0.2.1a

Fixes:

v0.2.1

Story:

– A New Main Event Chain consisting of 2 Events, 1 H-scene, and a new quest

– +2 Yunyun H-scenes

– Yunyun Headpats scene

– +7k words, totaling 152k

– +215 images, totaling 5575

– +4 animations, totaling 128

Technical:

– Save patching system will now raise an error if the save is corrupted or patching failed, preventing corrupted saves from being playable. New error screen, new console screen

– Game menu is now modular and animated, some elements were redesigned for stronger stylistic cohesion and better user experience

– Technical optimizations for texture prediction and preloading. Hopefully the game should run better now, particularly in adventuring mode (albeit it will use more memory)

– A more robust error handling for adventuring. If not in dev mode (a new setting), the game will attempt to consume exceptions during battle, skipping the current unit’s turn

Adventuring:

– Added Rem as a playable character. A strong offense hero, her kit revolves around inflicting Bleed with her Morning Star, stacking action points in Demon Form, exploiting ice weaknesses and finishing off bleeding enemies en-masse

– Proceeding to the next floor of a dungeon will now make an autosave; recovering from errors and reloading a save will no longer send you all the way back to the start

– Added some additional animations and SFX for the UI

– Improvements to the lighting system

– Fear tooltip is now slightly brighter to improve readability

Balancing:

– Aqua’s Blessing now has two more potential upgrades: Divine Rush, doubling the bonus speed, and Divine Compulsion, which immediately grants an action point to the target. The AOE upgrade now longer reduces the skill’s effectiveness, but instead increases the manacost

– Split Aqua’s Turn Undead’s upgrade Blinding Strike into two upgrades

– Added ability upgrades to Lurk, potentially allowing casting it on allies. The third tier changes Lurk to Greater Lurk, which makes stealth not break on action 50% of the time.

– Cataclysm & Minor Explosion are now Tier 3 upgrades for Megumin’s Explosion

– All out attacks now have 100% armor piercing, making them even more beneficial against tougher opponents

– A great number of abilities applying status effects will now benefit from boosts and will correctly convey that in the menu

Minor changes:

– QOL of life changes to the inventory screen, skill upgrade screen and stats screen. It is now easier to switch between them, easier to select a character, and changes to loadouts/skills will now persist if players save the game after exiting the menu; highlighted skill upgrade now updates the skill preview dynamically, and the tooltip no longer spills out of its container

– When returning from the Labyrinth, the hint message will now clarify that you’ll have to start over

– Buying consumables will no longer prompt the confirmation screen, making it a lot easier to buy in bulk

– Portable toilets are now purchasable

v0.1.5

This update is basically Operation Health for Adventurer Trainer. That is, an update focused solely on improving the game. Visuals, gameplay, story, you name it! There are quite a few new things, so check out the GIANT changelog below 😉

Story:

– MASSIVE REWRITE! Our king Kazuma is back to his rightful place as the MC, no more body-switching. I have to admit, while I thought it was funny and in line with many other Trainer-type games, it just didn’t feel right and I’ve grown to hate the premise, as have many of you. These changes are reflected everywhere in the game as well. ALL EVENTS have been updated, many significantly, some have been removed, some added, but I can finally safely say that I’m content with the state of the game’s writing now. Proud, even.

– Tons of sprites have been updated! My standards have been rising ever since I started working on this game, and some sprites just did not meet them, so they’ve been updated. Better quality, lighting and shadows, etc. Oh, and Kazuma has eyes now. Don’t ask me how many sprites had to be updated for that. I want to die.

– Tons of backgrounds have been redrawn to meet my newly elevated standards.

– +1 Priestess Event

– +1 Ghislaine Event

– +1 Dust Event

– +1 Roxy Event

– +1 Megumin H-scene

– +1 Aqua H-scene

– Implemented a custom audio system, allowing for multiple channels, complex transitions etc.

– A whole new HUD for dialogues, including animated character bust-ups. Dozens of unique bustup images per character for each different emotion!

– Added chibi-versions of the main party to use in some events

– Updated HUD for other interface elements, as well as added animated screens to highlights changes in player’s gold

– A new screen for Skills, Feats, and Skill Upgrades! Now using the Power Gems dropped from minibosses, you can increase potency of your abilities or change them in other ways.

– A new screen for Reputation, Stats and Achievements. Oh, and also: achievements! Some of them will also reward you with Gems.

– You can select your party for quests now.

– You can now spend afternoons or evenings in the bath, which will increase your Mana. (or lead to events in the future)

– Changed a lot of older huge .PNG sprites to .WEBP, saving around 30% on space

– Added Church that you can visit to purchase holy water

– Added Blacksmith where you can purchase new weapons and armor

– Added wearables (armor, accessories etc.)

– Optimized reading data files for items/units etc. by preloading them at startup, significantly boosting realtime performance. No more I/O lag

– Added event markers to locations to lessen menu-crawling

Adventuring:

Combat has been revamped significantly. You can read about it in detail in this devlog: https://www.patreon.com/posts/73558573

  – Breaking all of the enemies’ shields will now trigger an All-Out Attack, incentivizing strategic use of weaknesses

  – (After a lot of internal testing, I’ve temporarily disabled weakness limits outlined in the post above. I’m not a fan of how they influenced combat and not sure if I’ll bring them back.)

  – Critical hits will now pierce shields

  – Boost Points (BP) have been removed in favor of a new Combo system. For each hit targeting a weakness, your Combo score will increase. You can spend it on powering up your attacks in the same fashion BP worked previously.

  – Only every other used Combo Point will grant an extra attack. i.e. 2x, 4x, 6x Combo Points will result in 1x,2x,3x extra attacks

– The Turn Queue has been rewritten and works properly now, complete with nice little animations when characters are taken out of combat.

– Known weaknesses will now be highlighted when you select an ability targeting that weakness

– Added a new detailed hint screen which will display more information about the selected ability and its effects on the target

– Floating messages are now animated

– Combat Encounters may contain more than 4 enemies. Extra enemies will show up as reinforcements once a free spot is available

– Added Regeneration, Death Protection, Stun, Poison, Bleed status effects

– A technical bit: spritesheets can now be manipulated to flip in-game, allowing for units to swap sides (in the future 🙂 )

– Added Secret Rooms! Stay on the lookout while adventuring, particularly in the Dungeon… You might find something interesting

– Added Boss Fights! Bosses change their behavior, abilities, weaknesses depending on their stages; they also have immunities to different weapon types and should pose a significant challenge.

– Added some animations to the hero info screen and made it feel more responsive

– Added Auto-Combat option to speed up trivial fights.

– Added idle animations with different weapons for heroes

– Yunyun can now accompany you on adventures

– Your units will remember which weapon was selected last and start with it each turn

Balancing:

– Darkness’s “How Far I’ve Fallen” will now list “The Things We Do For Crab Dinners” as a prerequisite

– You can no longer rollback after loading a save to prevent bugs

– You can now turn down Lolisa when she comes over

– Event Requirements will now specify who the event belongs to (if not part of Main progression). For example, “Welfare Check” lists “House of Cards” as a prerequisite and will specify that “House of Cards” is part of Yunyun’s progression

– Added rain ambience

– Updated explosion animation and cast sound

– You will need to complete new Dust event to be able to send him on adventures in the Guild Dispatch system

Balancing:
