v. 0.3.51 Quality of life update
Ok, so here's a new update. It's quite big, however not with content, but with changes in UI and mechanics. It also fixes (hopefully) the bug with game crashing in 0.3.50. I'm too tired to write a lot, but I wanna say that this update helped me reinvigorate my love for BA. I actually played it couple days ago first time in a year, and it was a blast. So - I want to continue it. And Operation Penetration will be made as an additional content for BA (maybe a DLC), which will end up as an once in a year event or a reoccurring dream. I'll figure it out. Thanks for messages and votes in the poll.
Changelog:
1. Fixed game crashing and hanging
So in last version I fucked up one thing and the game was crashing and hanging during loading saves and entering supporter code. I think it's fixed. I tested it on 3 year old saves, and the game runs smoothly now. Let me know if that's true.
2. A lot of rewrites in the core systems
So basically I've made A LOT of small changes on my end, which I won't detail, because you don't even notice them. However - you might notice bugs. So please - if you found one, send it over with a save game on game's Discord.
3. A LOT of the Early Access content is now public
- XXXmas quest
- Halloween quest
- Bad Karma quest
- Gloryhole in the college
- Amia's event in the college toilet
- Amia's event in the classroom
- Nina is bored event
- College locker room
- The Slaughterhouse club with all the activities and events
- Two new random events at the Therapist
- One new random events at the Doctor
- Two additional girls up for confession
- Asian hooker in the park
4. Changing names of characters during game
So from now players can change their names mid-game, or change names of other characters whenever they want (and not only after they first meet the other character). This took me a LOOOONG TIME to do, and some old players might remember my attempts at doing that feature, but it was harder than it sounds. I'm hopeful that current implementation will finally stick around.
5. Skippable exams
Basically the exams are skippable for supporters now. If you want to make your game harder - you can turn it off in the settings too. This should make it easy to keep the college rating up to easier keep the allowance high from dad.
6. The Fap Mode multipliers also work on sex experience
Basically, players will get more experience for using sex positions, and will unlock star bonuses quicker, so you don't have to grind that much (that 300% bonus makes it go up really fucking fast).
7. A lot of changes in the sex mechanic
Basically, as a preparation to Operation Penetration, I rewrote big parts of the sex mechanic. The updates are not that visible on your side, however couple things might be:
I changed the way kink works - before it was just adding +1 to orgasm for the sex partner for each position from kink category. So if the position was as default -1 orgasm, the kink made it 0. This seemed like it's not fun, like - you have a position in kink category, and it doesn't change character's orgasm - I didn't like that. I've changed it so now all the positions in kink category still get +1, but ALSO the result can't be smaller than 1 (so each position from kink category always gives at least 1 orgasm to the partner).
I lowered starting vigour of the player (was 10, now 6) but added bigger vigour bonuses (up to 8 if I remember correctly) from player levels. So it's worth levelling up even more. I also raised the starting orgasm of all characters that you fuck by 1 and added some additional modificators to the whole thing (for example hookers get huge bonus to orgasm, so it's easier to make them finish).
I also changed the way endings of sex work, when things go wrong (like you stop mid sex), before there was a very negative short scene. Now there's couple different small scenarios there depending on different things (eg. characters who like the player more will be understanding, also hookers will not make a problem if you stop the sex or don't make them cum - not all of them at least).
Last but not least, I've made slight UI adjustment to the sex buttons - if the vigour of the position is -1 (which is the default for most positions) it will be invisible for better visibility until you hover over the button!
All in all those changes are supposed to make the sex slightly more engaging in a fun way (hopefully).
8. UI updates on the quests screen
So also next to each quest you can see a small avatar of the lead character for this quest. I think it makes it way nicer to look around. Also, the quests to be discovered are now randomized, which works way better. And I adjusted everything to mobile.
9. Side dialogs during the activities
I've completely rewrote the system that adds small interactions with other characters when you do an activity while those characters are in the same location. Basically - if you clean a garden or mop the floor when Daphne or Alexa are there - they will comment. This is not new, however now I've rewrote the code that creates those side dialogs, and now they will happen in the entire game. So basically if you write a test when Amia or Karma is there - you will get this small interaction.
10. Unification of the random events in college classes
Before each class had it's own small tree of events, now they have the same, so the events only depend on whether the characters are there or not, and not on the class they're in. This makes it easier to launch quests etc..
11. Teleport
During Late Night, when player has to go to sleep, there will be a new button on the bottom of each location that will teleport him home easy.
12. UI changes in location headers
Basically, you can now see the "Week of the ..." information. Also made some slight visual and color adjustments.
13. UI changes on the characters and player screens
Basically some people didn't know where the trait is - I've changed the layout slightly to mark the trait on the screen better.
Other changes
14. Changes in the flirt system
I've rewrote big parts of the flirt system, it will be now slightly harder (one mistake - you're out). It was way too easy before imho.
15. Changes in the allowance system
I've raised a cap for the allowance to 600 bucks (daddy gotta pay for those hookers!), at least until the game doesn't have some better system to earn money. I also removed the first/second week allowance bonus, instead during first 2 weeks dad doesn't take away money for bad grades.
16. Changed the odds on accidental backdoor event during sex
Choosing the right hole is now easier - the event will happen less often;)
17. Changed "Religious Freak" trait to "God Freak"
Basically it's shorter and it fits better in the interface.
18. Some rewrites in the quests
- Shopping with a smile
- Make the pool upper class again!
- College here I come
- Phisio with Rose
19. Prestige gym will now be open until Evening
20. Fap mode settings moved to the top of Settings
