This week we get some even progress on all fronts! 

I have been eliminating a couple of [TO BE IMPLEMENTED] messages in Roya. You can now talk to Marten and the refugee you rescued from the bandits has a small reward for you! You can also now enter the underground dungeon below the Barracks, but there isn't anythign to do there, yet. This will change when I  get to the lewd scenes of 0.7.0.

In real life, there are 2 new corruption scenes and 1 new common scene. The corruption scenes are follow-up scenes to the Popularity I mental transformation. There is still one corruption scene missing, but after one, I will then be able to implement the next mental transformtation. At the end of second corruption scene, you will get a mysterious "+1 Compliments" stat message, that one will become important once we get the necessary artwork to continue on the appearance corruption scenes. Alicia will need to gather these compliments to ensure Aura that they are indeed good changes and to make her go further along. The common scene gives some more insight into the group dynamics of the library club and Alicia's group. It also serves as a foundation for future corruption content, when Aura will be changing the group she hangs out with.

The last matter is a small one, thanks to you guys I was able to buy some new additional special effects. I was annoyed that so many skills used the same effect. Especially Wind Up and entering the ENHANCED state. Or Protect I having the same animation as the bandit's "Prepare Bomb". In general, I had to strongly overuse the 3 default power up effects from the default RPGMaker assets. While I am still using them quite strongly, I was able to reduce special effects overlap by quite a bit.

As usual, below you can find the detailed list of changes (which also include the changes from today's patch release.)

Next week I will be working on dungeon crawling content. You will be able to go north and face the Ogre Commander.
