Hey there....

The Floorplan generator is essentially in a complete state. Or at least beta I would say. Content for the floor plan generator engine is really the only thing left.



It can handle various sizes, multiple rooms with required props & decorations, and all done with C++ and ISM so generation time is FAST. Blueprint spawning will happen Post generation (Doors, loot containers, etc), after the entire level has been loaded and as players near houses/buildings.

Also, modding support is coming along swimmingly. Image, Audio, and Mesh(.fbx) files can all be loaded at Runtime.

There's way more to talk about but that will come next month!

Thank you for your continued interested and support!
Scott

Ok, Generals, let's begin!

Today I started creating the project I told you about previously (Home Wars Survivors), but I thought I'd give it a name and gameplay more suited to the theme it will deal with!

"Home Wars: Commando" will be a 3D roguelike game, different from the traditional Home Wars, with gameplay more similar to the famous Vampire Survivors, although very different obviously.

The dynamics should be as follows.
The player will have to carry out tasks around the map, while hordes of bugs will attack him.
These tasks may include sabotage missions, resource recovery, rescuing survivors, and much more.
He will be able to gradually improve his team, increasing the number of its members, their weapons, unlocking vehicles and support options (aircraft and artillery).

Napalm will return to claim its victims once again!

IMPORTANT:
Of course, I will continue my other project, "Mercenaries of the Kingdom: First Blood", which will not be slowed down by this new development.
I've been carrying out multiple projects at the same time for years.

In a few weeks, I should already have enough material to create the shop page, so please stay tuned!

That's all for now.
Generals, fall out!

I'd like to highlight an exciting new feature in The Hidden Art of Innkeeping: you get to choose what food to serve to your guests!


Not only will the dishes add to your guests' happiness, some of the guests will have cravings for certain foods and they'll reward you if you serve it during their stay. You can also try experimenting with specific combinations of foods - how about some cookies and tea?


Needless to say, you'll unlock more dishes as you get to know the villagers, meet new people, and discover new areas. Food will also play a key role in the main storyline, so I hope this sounds fun!

Turbo Mode animation speed increased from x1.6 to x2, and there's now an on screen indicator for Turbo Mode being on.

Added support for Portuguese language




New cards added: "Wall of Bhaavaagra"、"Patchouli, Elemental Alchemist".


Finished card art for "Eternal and Instantaneous".




Cards being moved or added to the hand will now appear 3D.

Optimized the resolution of cards in combat to make them appear more natural.

All card piles can now be viewed in actual order (excluding the draw pile normally).
Also added the option to be able to see the numerical order of cards in a given pile, and the top and bottom cards of the draw and discard piles.
This can also be toggled with the "Display Enemy Order" key.



From V.1.4 onward, there will be changes to enemies both minor and major.

Increased the damage on her multi-hit attack on Hard and Lunatic.

Hata no Kokoro Rework：

2.Will now track debuffs applied to the player, strengthening her Spell Card in the process
3.Her Spell Card is now performed in a new "Serious" emotion instead of "Sorrow"。
4.When changing emotions, her upcoming emotion will appear as the intent (this doesn't affect the emotions themselves)

Clownpiece Rebalance：

Her attacks can now add the Lunacy Status card.

Junko Rework：
1.Will now track the player gaining Philosopher's Mana, becoming enraged and stronger as a result.
2."Refinement of Earthly Impurities has been reworked and will now give her Barrier in addition to removing her debuffs. It will also debuff the player based on how much Philosopher's Mana she has.
3.Has a new action, "Pristine Lunacy"
4."Lilies of Murderous Intent" is now a Spell Card that hits twice and enhances Purifying Light, causing the player to lose life when it triggers.
5. Values such as damage and life adjusted.

Final Boss Rebalance：
"Reverse Offensive" will now provide her with Barrier.

Bosses in Act 3 onward have the ability to remove their debuffs. This will now display on their intents to notify players in advance.
Optimized the perfomance for multi laser attacks like Sanae Kochiya's "Nine Syllable Stabs" and Junko's "Lilies of Murderous Intent"
Nightmares will now Exile themselves when enough are present to trigger the instant loss effect, so when negated by the Ultramarine Orb Elixir, the count resets to zero.
Updated the perfomance of some minor enemies.



New Jade Box modifier added, "Highly Perceptive". This will start the game with the Border Sensor.
"Shinmyoumaru: Rebellion Against Rare Cards"'s third option now allows upgraded basic cards to be chosen, and the replacements will retain their upgrade status.
"Hecatia: Support Idol" Now offers a choice of two different T-Shirt sizes, providing 2 or 3 maximum life and Lock On at the start of combat. (The original exhibit was too strong)

Ever Cool Seasonal Fantasia's cost reduced by 1
All-Points Bulletin changed from Attack to Skill.
Manipulation of Fate will no longer target Unplayable cards (such cards do have a mana cost, though not normally visible).
Fixed an issue with the "Clean Hands" achievement where reloading after obtaining an exhibit would make the run inegible for it.

Fixed issues with Hourai's Sea of Trees:
1. Fixed an issue where it would incorrectly accept 8 mana as the maximum cost: now properly capped at 7 mana.
2. Fixed interaction with High Fidelity Headphones: previously, it would reduce the maximum cost (to prevent unwanted triggers of the "return cards from Exile" effect)
Now, it instead raises the number of hits by 1, up to a maximum of 7, and no longer affects the card's cost.


12/4：
When junko's status effect Lilies of Murderous Intent damages the player, it will no longer disqualify you of damageless run achievements.

Fixed error of final boss not summoning enemies starting from the 10th round.
