A small update to both Patreon and Public versions of the game today! The Oni group scene is done and implemented. Make sure to back up your saves before updating!

Winter Update stuff has been removed until the end of this year.

This took significantly longer than the two weeks I thought it would take as the scene is probably the most complex yet... on the script side of things at least. I also made a truck load of mistakes which ended up getting carried over to the later parts of the scene so I had to re-edit it quite a bit in the end, which was pretty soul crushing X_x.

At least now I definitively know how NOT to script a scene like this in the future and will approach future group scenes with this knowledge.

In order to trigger this scene you have to work for Aria in her store. There is a chance that any time you work that an event will trigger where Aria realises that she's short on some Alchemical ingredients. You can either offer your own ingredients to her, which will raise her Affection slightly, or let her head out and leave you in charge of the store for a few hours.

If left in charge of her store, there is a chance that a group of Oni party girls will show up to shop in the store. The chance for them showing up is higher on Friday, Saturday and Sunday in game. The chance is also higher if the player is Handsome or Gorgeous but only after their first visit (after all they don't know your appearance before the first visit)!

During their visit, they may attempt to seduce/bully the player into a group H-scene if he catches their eye. If you are "Gorgeous" they will try to get you 100% of the time!

You can avoid this scene by using your "Persuasion" skill, if you succeed, than they leave the store after making their purchases while feeling embarrassed over their drunken actions. If you fail however, the scene progresses normally.

If the Oni girls don't take an interest in you, you can try to use your "Seduction" skill and Flirt with them while they shop, a successful roll will ensure that they will try to get with you in a group scene.

The scene itself involves 3-6 Oni girls which leads into 3-6 "scenes" with each subsequent scene having a lower chance of occurring, though some factors increase this chance, such as player appearance, performance, etc...

There are a total of 6 scene that play out in a random order, 2 variants (Male on Female Oral/Reverse Cowgirl) for 3 girl types (Normal/Virgin/MILF).

Each girl also has a chance to either wear one of two panty types or not wearing any under her dress. One of the scene variants allows you to collect her panties in the end, similar to how you can acquire Aria's panties.

Each of the girls also can have a boyfriend/husband back in their village, for MILFs this is further displayed by the girl in the image wearing a ring. The chance of this is not very high but varies depending on the girl type, eg MILFs have highest while Virgins have lowest.

Each of the girls also has a chance to either do you bareback or with "protection", the chance also varies depending on girl type. In this case MILFs have highest while Normal Oni have Lowest chance.

A lot of these factors in the scene are also influenced by player appearance or his virgin statuses.

Performing very well in the scene leads to the girls gifting the player with alcohol, girl type determines which alcohol item is gifted.

If the Player has collected one of each of the 6 panty types, has earned a perfect score in the scene 20+ times and has 200+ Reputation with the Oni, he will be granted a Title that permanently increases his Toughness Score by 1, His Vitality Points and Virility against Oni Girls by 5% as well a granting a bonus to all future Oni related scene.

The title also modifies the dialogue slightly as well as increases the chance of the Oni scene happening. It should be noted that, the Title will prevent you from ever declining the group scene ever again and will prevent you from decreasing your Oni and Group Fetishes willingly.

===============================================

Bug Fixes/Other:

• A significant bug with Mimics has been fixed... but may persist in your save files if their chests have spawned already. The bug causes the fight scene to play out the moment you re-enter Opal Grotto if you have previously lost to a Mimic. The chance of this bug occurring is about 50%. The only way to fix it on your end is to save the game before entering the Grotto after you encountered it at least once and either beating the Mimic, causing the event to delete itself, or letting the scene play out in which case there is a 50% chance the event will delete itself, thus fixing the bug.

• Aria's quest to decipher the inscription on the Fairy Vault did not update correctly, leaving the quest in your log even if you finished it (if you managed to translate it). This issue has been fixed and the quest should now be listed as completed.

• Edited Aria's dialogue in regard to the timing when you need to use the Telescope to make it a bit more clear on what the objective is.

• Changed the smelting interface to use the standard processing interface.
