EP:Backrooms v6.7.1 Public - Rebalance

Hey, it's Sifa :D

Last 3 weeks were painful. Literally. Got some health problems right on january 1, right after the last update. So I couldn't sit or stand for 10 days. Couldn't sleep because of pain. Was able to walk only with the staff, like an old Wizard xD So were working from the bed with one hand only. But don't worry, it's getting better, today I were even able to walk to grocery store!

Anyway, it was a good time to think about everything. After all, EPB is getting closer and closer to what I wanted to see from mechanics and visuals point of view. However, from narration and Transformation (feminization/sissification/submission/etc.) it's still quite poor. I haven't added almost any adult themes I like, I haven't added any story progressions. So basically what we have is a good foundation for a game, but the game itself is still quite... empty? Yeah, we have artworks, we have characters, damn, we even have animations. But there is almost nothing behind them. They just exist, but without actual purpose...

Let's stop being dramatic xD I just want to say that I reached the point where I can finally think about the future of the game. I can finally make Content Plan (or update plan, idk how it's called). Gonna do that in public chat room on my discord server, so everyone can join and give some more ideas. Most likely I'll spend the rest of the month on that, so join anytime and just write what you want or just your opinion :)

P.S. New Avatar (puppet, doll) is crucial for this, because it will be involved into all the scenes, including the clothes/items you wearing (which will have impact on some scenes, e.g. chastity cage) . So it still needs to be done, even though it's technical. But it's already tested and half-made, so it's not a big concern for me :)

Changelog v6.7.1

• rebalance of all the existing action cards
  • double flow/drain card effects were removed
  • utility cards (reduce stress/arousal) now still useful after upgrade
  • all the effects/stats were changed so you need to do combos instead of just abusing specific cards
• Added new cards and returned some old cards: Wise Thought, Hug, Cheer Up, Work Hard, Make a Scene, Special Move.
• fixed bug where Shopping Effects were permanent. Now they actually decay
• Special cards from Working loop were changed. Now you have only 25% chance to get them. Also, they are no longer negative. They even more powerful than some other cards. But they have impact on your body/identity.
• Reduced requirements to unlock first animated scenes. Though, to unlock the last scene you still need to get quite strong.
• Stress and Arousal now reset after each battle.

   Cya soon :)
