Version 0.5.2

This took a while thanks to my computer situation, but here it is. If you played any version 0.5, you can ignore this (I'm working on the next chapter as I can). But if you're experiencing the mine/Hilstara bug, this is the version to get.

NOTE: If you're playing for the first time, get this version. The experience will be identical to this one except that you won't see a notification about the bug. All saves should be valid next version regardless of which one you play, however.

Light Version*: https://mega.co.nz/#!G9sFyZhT!ht_msXtSJU9Lbx9xIK4Bnp0wORscq929I8fcuIQ38V8

*Requires RPG Maker VX Ace RTP to be installed. If you don't know what that means, use the first link.

I really hope that I can avoid anything like this again. Juggling different versions on different computers has been a nightmare, but hypothetically one I can deal with if I improve my organization again.

Version 0.5 and the Hilstara Bug

(If you're not having problems with 0.5.1, you can ignore this post unless you really want to help hunt for bugs.)

Some people are experiencing a bug where Hilstara is considered to have joined the group accidentally. This means she'll be incorrectly added during the Academy events. But the bigger problem is that if you didn't accept the mine quest from her before triggering the bug, you're locked out of the mine permanently.

Until now, anyway:

PLEASE NOTE: Only use this version if you are experiencing the mine bug! This version is actually older than 0.5.1 in the post below and you will have a slightly smoother experience playing that one.

This version should unlock the mine for anyone experiencing this bug. There shouldn't be any future consequences, either.

UPDATE: The bug is found thanks to Commodus from LoK forums! It turns out I had a testing feature to flip this switch and forgot to take it out before release. Next version this won't be a problem, but I have not yet re-compressed 0.5.1, so for anyone playing a new game: don't save after reading the signs in the Academy.

Version 0.5.0 Public Release!

Download: https://mega.co.nz/#!3hkRTT7K!Lelj73Gj0JDoK0HQuAc3q0LA-m_PR8lkVhyVX0SkSxE 
Light Version*: https://mega.co.nz/#!D19WmAaY!KfB5cCVLDFwjjLkRJJFHjdEorjgMRobFOJNUJmfhCGc

*Requires RPG Maker VX Ace RTP to be installed. If you don't know what that means, use the first link. Version 0.5.1 - Two major plot quests added: you can now raise enough money to leave Stineford. - Three major combat sidequests, several minor sidequests. - Two new sex scenes. - Enemy healing bug fixed, minor improvements to Stineford. 

BUG NOTE: Unless you have the newest version, there might be a remaining bug. There is a testing feature in the Academy that will screw up your event order. It should be fixed now (and definitely will be in all future versions) but to be safe: don't save after reading the signs in the Academy.

Version 0.5.2
 - Identical except for the above bug. See other posts for details and the bugfix version if you encountered it earlier.

Really happy with this update, and I hope you all are too. Just... don't expect me to get this much done every single month. Future updates will be much more the size of the first three. Important note: as of this version, some official titles are being changed. Patreon backers voted and the Fucklord is now called the Incubus King. I'm sure there are lingering references to the old title - if you see any, please be specific about which line of dialogue needs to be changed. This isn't an official rebranding yet. When I get more custom art resources in place, I'll officially change the name of the game and some other stuff. Until then, however, I hope to smooth out my terminology. Those of you who thought Fucklord was hilarious (like me!) - it will show up again in another context. That's all I have to say about the game for now. Happy playing. ^^
