4MW - Ravager APK Version 2.5.5 Update

v2.5.5

Dev Notes

• I know I said that 2.5.4 was going to be the last release in its branch. But I have a new game mode to show off, and a few of the reported bugs were really, err, bugging me. So have a bonus build!

Features

• Game Mode: you may select your preferred tone when starting the game. You may choose between Dark Fantasy (standard game experience) or Power Fantasy (auto-win all stat checks, and never run out of resources).
• Art: Cuchilla’s bet (Lubbio).
• Voice: Mina’s renegotiation (Mariana Montague).

Tweaks

• If she is pregnant, Heloise cannot be sacrificed to the Proteans or Infernals, nor volunteered for Malagar’s experiments.
• Darja has been further degollumised.

Fixes

• Corrected dodgy file references for Ziz’s new voice lines.
• Corrected dodgy file references for one of Naho’s captive scenes.
• Talking to Mina about her ambitions will no longer lock you out of the Bastion heist.
• Paizuri with the captive Mina will boost Potency if it’s your first time with her.
• Darja is not so clingy as to follow you into dreams after enjoying butt stuff together.
• The kobold who brings Marie-Anne’s belongings is likewise less keen to watch what happens next.
• Breaker’s shadow portrait has been resized in line with his other ones.
• Assorted text and stage direction improvements.

v2.5.4

• This week has mostly been busy with Act IV, but that doesn’t mean you’re about to come away empty-handed. This build features a variety of touchups, improvements, and variations for our existing art, as well as new audio and bugfixes.
• This version will be the last in this branch. I’m closing the bunker door and getting ready for the big release of version 4.0. See you on the other side.

Tweaks

• Issa’s art will display if you choose to punish him personally.

Fixes

• Taking an injury will no longer cause an error. One of these days I’ll manage to implement a new mechanic without breaking it, but it is not this day.
• Breaker’s side image will not obscure his name.
• Kobold minions’ side portraits will appear correctly.
• Corrected a couple of incorrect emote references.
• Failing to convince Mina in your initial encounter will only give you one point of Charm.

• And everything found during playtesting.

v2.5.3

Dev Notes

• Hi folks, I had a catastrophic laptop meltdown last week. Fortunately I have been able to recover most of my data, but it’s pushed me back a bit. I’ve put together a build with all the wonderful things that have been finished while I dealt with the hardware situation.
• There is no longer any borrowed art in the game (hooray!). Thank you to D-Rex, Aka6, and Lucien for so kindly agreeing to lend the images that got us this far. Please support them if you liked their work!
• MVP of the last two weeks is the patron (who wishes to remain anonymous) that paid for a new laptop after my last one broke. It’s down to them that we’re back in business so quickly, and I can’t thank them enough. Hero.

Features

Tweaks

• Added a new method to beat the huntress in the Act III showdown, if your kobolds are at high Morale.
• Issa will still show up if you have the Futa tag disabled, you just won’t have any option to bang him.
• Your current health is displayed in the Status screen.
• The Status screen has been updated with a new personal description for Act IV.
• It becomes much harder to gain Strength, Charm, or Potency after you reach maturity at the beginning of Act IV. You’ll still be able to call on those qualities, and gain new ones.

• Accents on names are more consistent.
• Assorted improvements to stage direction.

Fixes

• If Malagar departs in Act IV, he will not leave you with a time loop as a bonus gift.
• Marie-Anne will no longer go on sabbaticals during her chamber visit.
• And everything found during playtesting (thank you Mattrex and GrayRaven!).
