This one wraps up a ton of long-running pieces, from Yarra's harem list to the base library to the very last Shining Sword. I also hope it kills off the crashes some players were having with the conversation log. In general, the new content is focused on final combat challenges, but this is also a major polish update.

Please enjoy! Next up is the epilogue, which will be another relatively small update. I'm also juggling past improvements and new features, though, so we'll see how the update shakes out.

TLS 0.76.0 Released!

New update for supporters on Patreon or SubscribeStar! Version history updated, you know what to do, etc.

TLS 0.76.0

 - Final optional dungeon and last combat challenges.

 - Final harem member with attached sex scene.

 - Final base books and unique equipment.

 - Minor changes to final battle due to optional dungeon.

 - Improvements and bugfixes to the dialogue busts, thanks to Rachnera and Lamsey.

 - Improvements and bugfixes to new skills thanks to Lord Forte.

 - Three new illustrated scenes: Orilise x Altina, Rescued Erosians, Robin Transformation

This update caps off a lot of things in the game! These are the last combat challenges, you can get the final harem member, and most importantly finish the base library. I also hope this update will fix the stability issues, once it goes public.

That should be in a week, unless there's an unusual amount of trouble with the combat balance.

I don't like doing two public builds like this, but the previous one had a handful of bugs that would interfere with player experience. If you didn't notice, it doesn't matter. If you had any of those issues or haven't downloaded yet, definitely get this one.

Hopefully I can be full time on the next release now.

This was a big and scattered update, so check the version history if you want to look at everything. This time I need to give huge thanks to Rachnera, Lamsey, and Decarabia for helping the new bust dialogue system function. You can't just magically get the character expression on screen, it required a ton of fiddling and work that they handled for me. This feature would not have happened without them.

Aside from the visual improvements, the biggest thing is all the balance changes and new skills. While I tried to work on the balance during the testing weeks, it could definitely use more feedback, so please feel free to speak up if you have any thoughts.

Next update will be the final optional dungeon and harem member. Made good progress on that, but not sure when it will be out.

TLS 0.75.0 Released!

New update for supporters on Patreon or SubscribeStar! Version history updated, you know what to do, etc.

TLS 0.75.0

 - The dialogue system of TLS has been massively overhauled to show character busts during conversations. Thanks to Rachnera and others for helping this happen.

 - Substantial balance changes, including many new skills (see next section).

 - Remade and polished prologue section.

 - New custom title screen menu.

 - New maps for all Stineford interiors.

 - Further polishing, to the final battle and across the game (see lowest section).

 - New windowskin thanks to Lamsey.

 - New illustrated scene: Shard Sipping.

Balance Changes

 - 33 new skills spread across the harem.

 - 6 new skills dedicated to swapping active party members, a newly coded capability.

 - 8 new synergy skills: Poison Storm, Piercing Assault, Weakening Assault, Agile Guard, Pure Thrust, Inspire, Anti-Tyrant Essence, Arcane Shieldwall.

 - Uyae's stance skills no longer require a turn to switch.

 - Thanks to Lord Forte for scripting help, the LUK statistic now has more complex effects on the game, including status effects, hit rate, and evasion.

 - The LUK of both enemies and characters has been adjusted to compensate for these effects.

 - Six new offhand items unique to Vhala have been added, spread throughout the game depending on decisions.

 - Multiple synergy skills have been tweaked, and Earth Lance no longer requires synergy.

 - The cost of Dominate/Corrupt was reduced.

 - The damage formula for Quake was improved.

Past Changes and Additions

 - Final ending requirements modified.

 - The final push section now shows your variables more accurately.

 - Lustlord's Shadow boss weakened.

 - The Crystal of Harmony is now purchasable if you missed it.

 - Eustrin now has two new tracks, thanks to Lamsey.

 - Lamsey also contributed a significant number of modified sprites, such as succubus sex, prologue Simon, and a new Doom King statues.

This isn't the final optional dungeon update I wanted, but look at all the stuff in the above list: I felt it would be wrong to keep that all from everyone while I finished the next section. Plus, it will be good to get input on the balance of all the combat changes before I do the final combat challenge. I don't know if this will take a week or longer before going public, but that will have no impact on how quickly I finish the next update.
