Sadie Gets a Life

v0.3.6

• What's New
• Several new locations are available for Sadie to visit, including outside of missions:
• Freeman Shopping Plaza on Tier 13
• Mikhail's Mercantiles on Tier 13
• Poppin' Fresh on Tier 9
• The Reform Chapel on Tier 12
• Dinestra and Ptolmeres finally do something! Sure, it takes a few bloody noses and maybe a missing tooth or two, but Sadie gets the job done!
• Sadie has an opportunity to alter Freistadt tactical doctrine as part of her latest round of backdoor diplomacy.
• The Adventurers' Guild has Sadie perform an uncommon type of mission as she helps out the Mighty Warriors.
• Sadie finally makes her man. Scene possibilities include:
• A threesome scene with Neemar and Landon.
• A foursome scene with Landon, Lexi, and Talys.
• A one-on-one scene with Landon.
• Mallory learns to read and write, and Sadie learns how to count dead bodies.
• Mallory also learns a neat skill if Sadie finishes the Making a Man series of events.
• Spend some bro time with Jericross and maybe fight some undead forces along the way!
• Three new mini-games are available for me to mix things up a bit.
• Web of Lies -- Determine which statements are lies based on a set of facts.
• Double Entry -- Determine which accounting journal entries involve receiving money and which pay out.
• Load-Out -- Load up a wagon with blocks of different shapes and sizes.
• 4 new sex scenes
• Added about 3 hours of new gameplay
• What's Better
• The combat menu is now faster to get through! You no longer need to select "Fight" or "Escape" on each turn. Instead, "Flee" has been added as an option. The battle bar includes Attack, Special, Magic, and Guard, and each gets its own shortcut key (A, S, M, and G, respectively). The other options also have shortcut keys and there is a hint bar that you can show and hide using the Tab key. Item, Scan, Encyclopedia, Swap, and Flee are in the hint bar, and accessible via shortcut keys I, C, E, P, and F. You can also use Page Up/Page Down (or LB/RB on a gamepad) to move between pages if you prefer that route. And if you don't like the keys I chose? Read on!
• The Options menu has received a bit of an overhaul! Minigame difficulty settings now have their own screen and I've worked to make the options screen a bit easier to navigate.
• If Sadie's not allowed to leave her room (or home building), you'll see an indicator in the upper-right corner that will tell you to go to sleep.
• The game now treats Sadie's former life as an introductory tutorial. On New Game, you can choose to start the game in the Goblin Cave as a succubus, or check out Sadie's old life first.
• Several of Mallory's skills were missing Anime Mode images. These now have images, and I redid her Steal images because I didn't like the originals very much.
• When you are in battle, opening the Encyclopedia automatically filters down to the enemies you are currently facing. If you want the full encyclopedia, you can still open it outside of battle in the Documentation menu and see everything.
• Sadie now remembers what she was wearing when she leaves the Recollection Room.
• Sadie's Make a Man astral plane now separates specific tasks from categories a little bit better.
• Added an indicator on the "reset floor" pull chain in the Dungeon of Heroic Intent.
• We no longer default to an invalid attack or skill. This primarily affects Kristos when he is equipped with a bow, but can also affect certain characters with skill cooldowns like Sadie.
• We have a new keyboard shortcut: 'k' opens up the Skills menu out of combat. This is important because:
• You can now remap your controls! This works for keyboards and gamepads, and lets you map standard RPG Maker operations (move, confirm, cancel, sprint) as well as game-specific commands (message log, recollection room, change clothing).
• The Shop screen has seen a major revamp. This should hopefully lead to fewer clicks when buying and selling propane and propane accessories.
• I've updated the in-game user manual so that it better reflects your keyboard/gamepad mappings and contains the most up to date information.
• Act I's Adventurers' Guild quests now have flashing circles on the Monster Kingdom regional map to show you where to go.
• Added information on the current map to the menu, so you always know where you are. Unless I haven't tagged that map, in which case who knows?
• Fast travel points now disable the current location in the list. You can still leave the fast travel screen using Escape.
• Added more objectives to certain quests (e.g., Svetlanda - Cull the Monsters), and added some new quests to keep track of longer-running sequences like the Hope Springs tavern job and the Harmonia fashion mogul.
• Made minor clarifications to make the Gutter Rats - Meet the Leadership and Isekai Order - Find a Sword missions easier to follow.
• Increased the level at which players learn higher-level skills. Is this better? Eh. Maybe I'm just too generous with XP.
• When Mallory is moving through the servant tunnels at the Duke's Chateau in Flenzwald, peeking now shows an instantaneous 5x5 square view of the area.
• What's Fixed
• This release fixed dozens of bugs. You can find the whole set of gory details on this (free) Patreon post.
