Terminal Desires v0.10 ALPHA #3 (Patreon)

Seasons Greetings,

Once again, save files don't carry over here(for the final time), and there's a lot of WIP stuff I would have loved more time with, but it's mostly presentable, and mostly on time... kind of... For a Jimjim release anyway... 

I hope those who intend on trying this final v0.10 ALPHA build are able to find something neat about it. Even if it didn't end up being everything I had hoped for.

But I'm still generally pretty happy with how the game has shaped up, despite its admittedly rough edges. Still some work to do yet. But I'll force myself to focus mostly on the scenes now so we can wrap this up and folks can go on with their persistent save files again. 

Because we're honestly at a point now where it really is good enough(Even if I don't want to admit it). It's leagues better than v0.09, Gameplay, feature and QoL wise. And clearly I'll just keep working on it forever if given the opportunity. So it's time to come back to reality. Well... After I've finally gotten some sleep. Barely holding it together as I wait for these uploads to finish...

Please inform me of any bugs or feedback you have. Any seriously game-breaking bug I will endeavor to fix over the next 24 hours and re-upload. There's usually always a couple. 

~ Jim

Known Bugs/Issues:

• You may have to whitelist "Game.exe" if your security software falsely quarantines it, preventing the game from launching.
• You may encounter a crash with no error message on Day 3. Usually before one of the unique story fights. I have yet to be able to diagnose this crash as it is difficult for me to replicate on my system. Please contact me with specifics if you encounter this crash. If you can replicate it 100% of the time, it would help me if you could upload your save file for me to analyze.
• When "Autosave on Map Load" is enabled, the act of loading any save file will often cause a new Autosave to be made in one of the 3 designated slots. 
• Bonuses associated with Skill Ranks are not yet all implemented or working as advertised. 
• The 9mm Idle "Shocked Expression" Dialogue CG is missing 5 variants for Tiffany's Day 3 bodies. The unarmed variants are currently in use as placeholder.
• The "HP Bug", where Tiffany's Health is not at Max HP despite taking no damage, may be back due to the new Level-Up features that have yet to be taken into consideration.
• When first entering the Casino, Terry's Flashlight beam has a tendency to lag behind his current position when he starts to move.
• The "PROGRESS" statistic may not correctly add up to 100% even after completing every current piece of content possible.

Other Platforms/Devices:
I will look into officially supporting Mac, Linux, IOS, Android, & Web Browser at a later date(if viable), once the game reaches a more stable point.

In the meantime, I'd suggest trying the following emulation alternatives:

• Android - "JoiPlay"
• Mac OS X - "WineBottler"

Some players have had some success using these, though I can't test or offer any support for them myself.

CHANGELOG:

----------------------------------------

v0.10 - ALPHA 3

----------------------------------------

NOTICE! THIS ALPHA BUILD CONTAINS NO NEW STORY COMPARED TO v0.09. 

- ITS PURPOSE IS TO TEST THE OVERHAULED GAME SYSTEMS, GATHER PLAYER FEEDBACK & FIND BUGS.

- ALPHA & PRE v0.10 SAVES WILL NOT BE COMPATIBLE WITH v0.10's FULL RELEASE & BEYOND.

[NOTE #1: You can fastforward dialogue by holding 'W', Skip sex scenes by holding 'X', & hide the dialogue window by pressing 'Ctrl'.]

[NOTE #2: Select "Progression" from the pause menu(or press 'P') to Spend any Perk/Stat points & View Skills/Acquired Perks.]

[NOTE #3: Once ingame, I recommend selecting "Configure Keybinds"("esc"->"Options"->"UI & Keys") to view all the hotkeys.]

*Added the following 4 Sex Scenes to the Gallery only: (They have yet to be implemented into the actual game)

- Hitomi Fucks Terry (Story Sex Scene)

- Tiffany Uses Horse Toy (Dildo Scene)[Find it at the Gallery's front desk]

- Iris VS Male Zombie (Combat Sex Scene) [Iris is an upcoming character who will be introduced in the v0.10 Full Release.]

- Iris VS Sewer Zombie (Combat Sex Scene)

*Merged Stat Point Allocation, Perk Point Allocation, Viewing Skills & Viewing Acquired Perks into a single menu option labeled "Progression".

- Added a "Progression" hotkey (Default Key is 'P').

- Stat & Perk Points can now be spent at the player's discretion instead of being forced upon level-up only.

*Added Tiffany's voice lines for the "Romeo Injects Tiffany" Story Scene.

- This scene is also now viewable from the Gallery & can be skipped at any time by holding 'X' like a sex scene.

*Added Tiffany's voice lines for the "Tiffany vs Male Zombie [butt]" Combat Sex Scene.

- Minor improvements also made to address moan sfx repetition during all sex scenes.

*Added 1 new large interior (East Sewer) beneath the east part of town. Several manholes were added to access this new location.

*Added an "Undress" hotkey (Default Key is 'U'). Press it while on the map to strip the next piece of Tiffany's outfit without damaging it.

- Outfit Repair Kits (Default Key is 'O') will not be consumed when the next piece of Tiffany's outfit to be equipped is undamaged.

- Undressing/Dressing Up now have corresponding CGs.

*Added the first 2 "Sex Moves":

1. "Strike Pose" inflicts a “Riled Up” status on all opponents, doubling their moves per turn, but greatly decreasing their Defense, Aim & Reflexes.

- Currently there is only a single pose to strike, but more will be added in future versions.

2. "Self Strip" Dazes opponents while boosting Tiffany’s Agility, but comes at the cost of 1 Outfit Piece.

- Self Strip can also be used outside of combat, as a more destructive alternative to undressing. ;)

*Added a Double Barrel Shotgun that can be purchased from George.

- It fires 2 shells at once, dealing massive damage, but requires reloading after each shot.

*Added single use Stun Guns that deal shock damage & stuns for 3 turns.

- Can be used in Combat by Tiffany, Debra & Lara.

- Can be looted, purchased, or crafted with Crafting Rank 3 + Policing Rank 2.

- Tiffany now starts the game with 1 Stun Gun in her inventory.

*Added 13 new Perks/Traits. Including the 3 non-functioning Perks previously marked in RED text.

-Added the missing Gun Jamming mechanic to the "Sticky Loads" Trait. [But, I will need to improve it's implementation for the Double Barrel Shotgun]

-Fixed the "By A Thread" Perk to function as described instead of awarding free Outfit Repair Kits.

-Adjusted the "Barren" Trait bonus to grant +10% Damage instead of +5%.

-Some Perks/Traits have been hidden from choice until their effects become relevant to the player.

*Added the ability to give most Food/Drink items to other girls by selecting "Cater" when talking to them.

- This will replenish their END & provide Persuading Skill exp.

- The items can be laced with "FertiliMax" or "Unconceivable" (drugs required) to manipulate their Fertility & provide Breeding Skill exp.

- Added a "Companion" hotkey (Default Key is 'C') to access this "Cater" feature for Tiffany's active companion.

- More dialogue options will be tied to this Companion hotkey in future versions.

*Added the very rare chance for twin fetuses(or more - up to Decuplets) upon impregnation.

- The player will receive a message box if this happens.

- This has no gameplay or visual effect, other than additional Breeding Skill exp & Fetus HP.

- Though in the future(End of Day 4+), this will of course result in multiple births at once.

*Added a basic Drunk status ailment & screen effect that are temporarily inflicted when consuming alcoholic drinks.

- Positives while Drunk = +10% Attack, +5% Critical Hit Chance.

- Negatives while Drunk = -5% Aim, -10% Reflexes, -10% Agility, Fetus Damage if Pregnant.

- Can become "Addicted to Alcohol", though Addiction effects & Drunkenness affecting dialogue options are planned for future versions.

- Tiffany is unable to read books while drunk (& also while Addicted to jizz).

- Currently: changing locations, drinking water & having combat sex, will contribute towards Tiffany getting sober.

*Added Sewer Zombie encounters to the Fishing mechanic.

*Added 2 new Cooking recipes/consumables & split the "Food" category into "Food(Basics)" & "Food(Recipes)" inside the Cooking Menu to help unclutter the UI.

*Added basic messaging to clarify the amount of successful stumble recoveries needed to regain balance(Day 3+).

*Added “Text Speed” configuration to the Options Menu. (includes instant text display)

*Added a “Censor Sydney Slurs” toggle to the Options Menu. (enabled by default)

*Adjusted combat in following ways for the sake of game balance:

- Slightly Buffed enemy Defense Stats & factored it into Firearm damage calculations.

- Slightly Buffed Firearm damage to account for modified calculations.

- Slightly Nerfed quantity of ammo found in RNG loot.

- Slightly Nerfed natural(per level) Attack Stat growth.

- Slightly Nerfed base Combat Knife Attack Stat bonus. 

- 9mm x2 Combat Move now unlocks at Level 6 instead of Level 10. And it no longer costs 1 END point to use.

- Melee x2 Combat Move now unlocks at Level 9 instead of Level 5.

- Added a new 9mm x3 Combat Move that unlocks at Level 12. It does cost 1 END point to use.

- Sewer Zombies are now 10% less resistant to Fire Damage, but completely immune to being set Ablaze.

*Adjusted Tiffany's MAX HP Stat so that it now increases the base HP of Fetuses at conception.

*Adjusted Tiffany's Defense Stat so that it now:

- Decreases any damage dealt to Fetuses during relevant sex scenes.

- Decreases Addiction Chances.

*Adjusted Tiffany's Agility Stat so that it now increases the chance of a successful recovery when stumbling(Day3+).

*Adjusted the level design of "South Sewer" to reduce unnecessary backtracking during the game's intro.

*Adjusted the "Gallery" Hotkey (Default Key is 'G') so that it can also be used to exit the Gallery while inside.

*Adjusted various item descriptions/boxes to display relevant QoL information.

- How much HP/END Tiffany has before using a replenishing item or a combat move.

        - How many empty bottles Tiffany has before filling one with water. 

        - What quantity of a craftable item does Tiffany currently poses before crafting more.

*Fixed a bug where returning to "Barclay Stables" caused a black screen.

*Fixed a bug where skipping the wank scene caused a black screen.

*Fixed a bug where the "Farm Hand" Quest could become stuck if the player already had 7 Blueberries or 3 Eggs prior to starting the quest.

*Fixed a bug where several images would fail to load during the "Prologue End" scene on Day 3 if Tiffany had the Base Stage 1; Pregnant Stage 0 Body.

*Fixed a bug where the new "Item Found!" popup notifications would frequently overlap when looting multiple items at once from containers.

*Fixed a bug where enemies could attempt to strip an already naked opponent when Tiffany fought alongside a companion.

*Fixed a bug where the "Kinks" list was displaying the incorrect status for the "Slut for Futa Girls" kink.

*Fixed a bug where companions were using Tiffany's "END Required" value when resisting in combat.

*Fixed a bug where attempting to exit the Pharmacy with Vanessa on Day 2 while also escorting her there, was displaying the wrong CG & dialogue.

*Fixed a bug where Romeo could still strip Lara if he was Dazed or Stunned.

*Fixed another bug causing the Cooking Skill's Rank & EXP display to become out of sync with their actual values.

*Fixed typos and other minor bugs.
