I spent the majority of June fixing and improving the new core combat system and since my last progress report I've set up all the system changes I'll need moving forward. 

I've made the occasional post in the discord so now I'll go into full detail.

An important piece of feedback I received regarded the command wheel. Navigating it wasn't comfortable and after I demonstrated the rpg combat overhaul it didn't mesh well on the screen with the 2D plane.

In it's place now is the the command menu, now also shared between RPG and H-battles for consistency. I've moved around some menu elements such as the descriptions and targets to the top of the screen so the character statuses are always visible. This all didn't take long thankfully, maybe 2 or 3 days getting the style and positioning right.

Polishing the sexual actions opponents can take in battle was at the top of my priorities.

Enemies have a varying degree of sex attacks with different positions. Most enemies will have 1 or 2 while a select few like the common demon will have 3.

Enemies now also have two variants of sex attack. The first is demonstrated above, a single action animation grab, and if the targeted character is Off Balance the attack ends in a climax, dealing additional damage.

The 2nd variant of the enemy sex attack is a full grab that operates like the original battle system, locking down the character's actions until they escape, climax or the grab expires. Special capture grabs like the Dithonion's that can instantly end a battle will function the same.

Additionally an alternative faint animation will be used if the character is defeated in this manner.

With the heavy lifting done I've been updating the last of Journey's attacks and the Demon's attacks. I'm going to stress test a build of the game with a few friends using only Journey so I can ensure everything is functioning smoothly.

Before the stress test I'm going to add a few more enemies needed. If all goes well with that test I'll add a few more of the enemy types and post that build for everyone to try before I finish the other girls.

That about finishes this progress report, I'm really thankful for everyone's patience and feedback, going through with this update wasn't easy but waiting couldn't be much easier so I thank you guys it really means alot.

I'll keep everyone updated with more minor posts in the discord until my next full report in July. Until then take care!
