Hero Corruption 2 v0.25 Released ! (Patreon)

The new version of HC2 is out !

Changes:

MOBILE UI

• Mobile UI has been reworked
• All choice buttons are now at the bottom of the screen for easier access
• Some text formats and sizes have been readjusted
• This new version was practically playtested entirely on the mobile, so I personally think it's much more comfortable, but please let me know what you guys think about it.

BONUS ATTRIBUTES

• For now bonus attributes can only be acquired through the new accessories
• They are very similar to normal attributes, but should help in the completion of possible builds and individualize each hero
• At the moment, the only practical difference is that they cannot be decreased by enemy moves, but I already have plans for them in the next updates

NEW ENEMIES AND RELATED IMPROVEMENTS

• Enemy increased spawn times are now randomized every new run
• The increased spawn times can still be seen on their profile screens and these are updated accordingly
• This means you still have some control over which enemies you want to fight, but if you're just exploring blindly, there will be more enemy diversity, which should improve replayability
• The game now also tracks the amount of times a girl has been defeated in a single run
• The enemy profile screen has been readjusted to accommodate this new addition and now also display the EXP gained from an encounter
• This info is now being used to change the behavior of certain enemies (Olivia, Megan and Kali)

• Charlotte (Swamp)

Charlotte likes diversity too, how about learning something from her?

• Dixie (Swamp)

Dixie can do it for pain or for pleasure, but thankfully it's not up to you to decide

OTHERS

• Added 2 new Equipments: STR Ring (Charlotte), VIT Ring (Dixie)
• Added 2 new Bad Endings: Dixie, Charlotte
• Added 4 new achievements
• Added tooltips to all buffs and debuffs (These can be better described, yes, I agree)
• Optimized Encounter coding

BALANCE STUFF

• Being defeated no longer increases Addiction
• Blue potions no longer reduces Corruption
• Red and Purple potions no longer increase Corruption
• Readjusted EXP and Gold gain
• Decreased the amount of Addictions decreased by Blue Potion 3 > 2
• Increased Church Corruption decrease cost 10 > 20
• Decreased "Broken" Corruption Check base value 20 > 10
• Decreased CON influence over "Broken" Status Effect
• Anastasia now strips instantly after being defeated 4 times in a single run
• Samantha Attack Increase by +15 after being defeated 4 times in a single run
• April now changes her moveset earlier 6 defeats > 3 defeats
• Kali Lust Check Decreased 50 > 30
• Cindy Shemale Addiction Check Increased 12 > 15

BUG FIXES

• Fixed Hannah BE triggering before her blowjob scene
• Fixed Victoria Gallery displaying the incorrect amount of times defeated

-----------
These balance changes can severely alter gameplay, overall I felt that they made HC2 a little less punishing, but the actual hero corruption is now more inevitable, even though it may take longer.
To complement this change, I thought about increasing the cost of reducing addictions at the church as well, but I guess that would be too much.

This is the moment where the game is shaping up, and to be completely honest, I really like where this is going. How about you guys?

On a unrelated note: Achievements are great, but I have a feeling that "Defeat 10 enemies" are kinda uncreative and redundant when there's already a better reward for this feat (Enemies photos).
The achievements screen is also being flooded waay too quickly, and this may diminishes their importance a bit.

I've been playing with the idea of removing specifically this type of achievements and making room for more interesting ones, like "Deal x damage in a single turn", "Survive until day x", "Stun an enemy for x turns consecutively ", etc...
Please let me know your thoughts on that as well.

And one final **********HUGE DISCLAMER:*********

I plan to mess with the persistent data in the next update, there's a high chance your saves will be deleted on v0.30, so please be aware !

Have fun !
