#goblin layer
Randomly stumbled over this? Here's the tldr:
Goblin Layer is an Adult Adventure with a large cast of characters, nsfw humor, erotic animations and more!
.......................
🅰️0.43.8 Negative/Positive A-Cup edition🅰️
.......................
This 0.43.7 + 0.43.8.
So I guess it's technically just 0.43.8. I skipped 0.43.7 as .8 had some extra bugfixes.
But now you know why the changelog is a fucking novel.
.......................
🅰️ Art/Scenes🅰️
.......................
New Scene(s) - Anvil finally gets the potion she's wanting, things quickly gets out of hand. Some of the townspeople and Goblins get involved as well.
Required: Finished Watertown MQ. Finished Anvil's previous quest (added an option for this in Chapter Select). Either Finished Hoblina's Shortstack Quest, or didn't start it yet.
A small 2d cutscene outside the OCSA-office in Capital City (worldbuilding/not very spicy)
A small 2d cutscene with Farm Girl outside the Cottage (not spicy)
Brief Scene where Farm Girl and GL renovates a room in the cottage. Required: Repaired the fence at Cow Girls farm.
Two Romance cards for Anvil (blow/boob)
Romance card for Hoblina in Shortstack mode.
(Can get the cards from the Catgirl/Cheat Room if you already played these quests.)
.......................
🅰️ Gameplay🅰️
.......................
Snazzier, slightly faster, intro for the game
Some edits to TP cost/gain of skills
Better/more visible buy/sell buttons
Map touch ups
Dialogue edits
Multiple updates to the quest journal
Updated Hall of Fame
Updated cheat room
Dialogue additions
and Dialogue Portrait touch ups/additions
A herald/newsreader now stands in the Market, in Capital City. As the story progresses and you finish more quests, he'll have more to say.
Fixed some sound effects for Gobelyne's scene
Adjusted the Day/Night cycle in Capital City and its effects
Adjusted/Added more rewards in Grindr dungeon
Polished/Adjusted some 2d cutscenes
Polished/Adjusted/Added sound effects here and there
Some adjustments to Smith girls fantasy scene, to make it run a bit faster
General Light effect/Performance optimization in multiple areas
New small Quest - Can arrange an office for Gobsicca now, it'll cost quite a bit though (Anvil's money making scheme might come in useful)
More light optimization - I think the main reason some ppl had anims freezing is because too many light sources combined with animations just didn't work on their machines. So I'm cutting down on the amount in areas where's there's animations or a lot of other stuff going on.
Adjusted Anvil's dialogue a bit during the BbJ
Cleaned up some sprite art
Updated name display during dialogue (their are connected to the 2d face art, so when I add new facial expressions, I gotta update the 'connection' as well, otherwise the name won't be displayed) (there's your quota of unnecessary knowledge for today)
- If you see any dialogue (for the Townspeople/Party Members) without names, feel free to tell me, I probably missed some.
Option to finish all of Farm Girls quests (up until the cottage) when picking CH5 in chapter select.
Added message about turning off light effects if you experience lag
Updated Cheat room: Added in Anvil's new scenes, new romance cards, new look/layout, etc
Testing Randomized World map weather. Experimenting. It will probably rain inside at some point.
Edited chapter select light
Edited Cottage light
Updated Catgirl Merchants inventory (cards)
Working on new sprites, enemies, skills, lands etc for the next adventure

Please report bugs and such in the Discord bug report channel, it is really helpful! Even if there's not always a reply, I read everything that gets posted there.
Infinite rewards for Frontier Conquest, fixed. Maybe. We'll see. Worst case scenario, you still get free money. So it could be worse.
There was some other stuff as well, but I forgot exactly what.

🅰️Sound!🅰️
.......................
If you feel like any animation sound, or sound effect/music in general, is too loud/silent (compared to the other game sounds), please drop a comment in the discord Bug Report channel. I made a special channel for audio.
I believe that when my editing program for anims got an update, it fucked up my sound settings. Its either that or the latest piece of shit NVIDIA drivers being involved somehow. I am currently investigating.
Just make sure you check that the game's sound level settings aren't muted or set too low first 🙂

🅰️Upcoming Updates🅰️
.......................
I'm gonna upload Mac version from 0.43.9 and on. I can't test them cause no mac, but they seem to work for at least one person, so that's good enough for me.
We had a poll recently: What to do you want first: Barrel quests or a new Adventure quest (with a new Goblin)? (You're getting both eventually)
A quite large group wanted more Barrel content first, but in the end the majority chose new adventure/new goblin first! So the new adventure is what I'll be working on. (I've already started working on it tbh) .
However! Since so many wanted more Barrel stuff, I'll try to include at least a few spicy events with her during the adventure, so you don't feel too sad.
Also, 0.44 is gonna have some additional big bugfixes as well. Normally I would add these bugfixes from the patreon version to the public versions whenever it's possible, because there's not point in releasing broken stuff. But sometimes retroactive bugfixes might actually cause even more problems due the new content relying on stuff that doesn't exist in the previous version and so on. This is one of those times. I added what I could tho.
