Gotta say I was pleasantly surprised to see an update to the game, and although I don't remember the version I originally played, there are A LOT of great changes and additions to it! Great Job!
Note: I have only just gotten to the part of getting to the main hall after the black clocked people take over the coliseum.
There are a few things I would like to bring to your attention though.
Not to be too much of a broken record, but yes, Hope is crazy broken by healing 500 whenever she wants, and it is quite often, even at full health. I was only able to beat her by getting lucky with a few good hits, then using a Boring Book and stacking up Lucky and Arouse twice, using Lube, and hitting her twice and rinse and repeat. She is also most definitely not the last enemy to use healing skills either, as the fighter on the right side of The Trial map can heal and so can others (names I forgot).
For the Rank A battle against Bandage Arms (I'm real bad at remembering names), you start out with 0 libido but there is an issue where some of your teammate have no foreplay skills, no viable lust attacks, and no usable persuasion skills at the start, forcing them to use an item since there is no skip (or at least not that I saw). With items being insanely valuable, this is a real issue for this battle.
For the Trial, when you can choose the right or left stairs after unlocking the goddess statue, the right room has nothing happen. I can talk to the women, but that's it, and I can't escape, forcing me to reload to my previous save.
The Squirt skill causes blindness, but I have no idea what exactly that does nor how long it lasts. Is it one turn, 3, forever? Adding a more clear description to the skill effects and how long it lasts would be really beneficial to players (same goes for Feeling Lucky, Defense, etc).
I have found out that Matilda has the extraordinary ability to not only miss her buffs to herself (defense, lucky) but also manage to avoid them? Defense seems to really be guilty of this when I'm in the heat of battle and need more defense but Matilda decides to dodge it.
All over though, great job on your work so far and keep it up! It really was pleasant to see the improvements to not only the maps and characters, but see more of a story develop from this and see the concept for foreplay animations (hopefully they all become like Romance animation) and the rough cutscene with the female fan.
Final Words: Boring Book OP AF and once again, keep up the good work!
