Ero Dungeons [Old Version]

Censorship/Customization

Customization

With the addition of the Orcs and Goblins, some people have noted that they'd prefer to remove them. The game now allows you to disable some specific content. This will replace certain enemies with other ones or change the behaviour of things. This should help people who'd prefer the game to stay fully yuri.

This system is also fully moddable, in case you have a fear of spidergirls or something.

Steam

I would like to release the game on Steam eventually. However, adult games aren't allowed on the German, Chinese, and Brazil versions of Steam. Even worse, most people don't even know this is the case, so won't invest in a VPN. The simplest solution is to created a censored Steam version, and host an uncensor patch somewhere else.

Censorship for Steam is a bit more involved than all the previous customizations. It removes the ability to remove underwear, removes all combat cutins, and most grapples. This alongside of minor tweaks like letting Slimes wear raincoats. If you're reading this, it won't really affect you, since you should easily find the uncensor patch. Though I'm warning in advance that the next public release will be this censored version (except for backers of course) to force you all to test it (with an uncensor patch released somewhat later).

As a benefit though, it finally got me to draw all underwear textures for the pet class, which means she no longer is forced to be naked all the time.

Dynamic Quests

The current quests system is a bit of a dud. It was added without sufficient content behind it, so isn't really used a lot. I have fully removed it. Instead there are new dynamic quests

The left side is for the main mission tree, which will be added next week.

The quests give you a new resource named favor, which can be spent on repeatable guild upgrades, special upgrades, and the church facilities.

Android

The Android version is getting there. The first experimental version has had some extra buttons added, and some extra functionality to account for the lack of keyboard: 

I've also figured out how the signing works. So next public release will include an Android version (you can play it through Patreon/Subscribestar already though).

Next

I still want to add the main missions, barks, rework dungeon effects, and an NG+ system.

After that, we're leaving the alpha for the beta, and no new mechanics will be added. Then it's time for polishing what exists and adding more content (enemies, gear, encounters, curios, etc...).
