v0.14.1.0 "The Shadows Within" Patch Notes (1-31-2025)
- 104k(!) words of content.
- Significant new section of the story.
- New partial Castle Kharos iteration.
- New combat sections.
- Major optional side section for some routes (those with Somnus who kept Tychus for interrogation).
- Five new achievements for those playing on Steam.
- New level up skills available for several party members!
- Three new loyalty skills (Ariadne 75, Ligaea 75, Somnus 50).
- One new throne room scene (Cynthia).
- New Ariadne art! Ariadne's outfit has been redone by Mimo! I'm very happy with the results of this. A patch to use the old outfit may be added in the menu at a later time.
- New bust art cut-ins for "ultimate" skills such as Wildfire and Power Shot!
- Door customization for the doors in the throne room at Castle Kharos have been added!
- Graphical rework of Avalonia! This includes redone mapping and a new Alcinian Sanctum in Avalonia. Several other early game maps have also been improved!
= Balance Changes
- Adjusted the damage of Ariadne's Burning to scale less strongly with level.
- Adjusted Wildfire damage to be reduced slightly more by mdf.
- Lorena's Swift Slash now deals more damage and will have a guaranteed follow-up during Holy Avenger.
- Swift Slash becomes Chilling Slash under Radiance, which deals less damage but now has a higher Skill rate. Chilling Slash will be learned on the version transition, or on fighting one battle.
- Howling Slash's follow-up now hits the main target if facing a single enemy.
= UI Improvements
- Expanded skill selection box and reworked party UI in battle. Character's expression changes from buffs or low HP should now more visible.
- Added a turn counter to combat.
- Added icons and colored text to passive effects to improve readability.
- Sir Leonidas and the honor guard now have custom sprites if the proposal "Elite Honor Guard" was invested in and completed.
- Added a KOed sprite for Lorena, used during the first two meetings.
= Bugfixes
- Corrected the description of Unrelenting to properly indicate that it restores 30 TP rather than 40 TP.
- Fixed a bug that caused enemies who attack multiple times a turn to do nothing when affected by Enthrall or Beguile.
- Added Theseus loyalty changes for the decision to kill/imprison Tychus. These are applied retroactively.
- Added a fallback to autosave to prevent the game from hanging on a failure to autosave correctly.
- Barrage or other instant skills no longer consume Ligaea's Confidence.
- Echo of Light and other instant skills no longer consume Calysia's Full Moon.
- Howling Slash's cooldown is now 3 rounds as per the description (was 4).
- Potions are no longer incorrectly classified as Key Items, no matter how much you hoard them. =P
- Various typo reports and fixes to old content (thanks to everyone who reported).
