June Report

Hello everyone, it's been a while. Three months have passed without notice.

Due to being busy with real-life work, there was not much progress in game development in March, April, and May, so I couldn't publish a progress report.

I felt this wasn't good, so in May, I paused the charges on Patreon (I thought it would continue until July, but I was able to start working again in June). I also considered temporarily deleting the paid plan on Ci-en (since it can't be paused), but I decided against it, thinking that suddenly deleting it might give the impression that the game had been abandoned.

However, I still recommend that you wait until my next version update is announced before rejoining the plan; I won't mind.

About the Game Engine

Due to issues with screen size and optimization, I actually considered changing the game engine in April and took some time to learn Unity, which caused some internal conflict.

However, in the end, I decided to first complete WOS.

I will use a new engine for the next project.

Combat

So this progress report is actually just to explain what I did in June.

The combat optimization mentioned in the March report is mostly complete, such as free movement, attacks, and skill combos.

Since Luna is no longer restricted to grid movement, the difficulty of bosses might also increase.

Game Flow optimization is also mostly complete, and some game maps in version V0.8 will look different from before, but the routes won't change significantly.

Additionally, with the quest interface, you should no longer be confused about what to do next.

Story

After the player enters the second chapter, that is, after defeating the Flame Knight.

Luna needs to join Reynold's legion and help him gain the position of legion leader. (In theory, the player can choose not to join and directly proceed with the next story, but until the subsequent story is completed, it's better to help Reynold).

After joining Reynold's faction, his faction base will be expanded, with more quests and H events, such as a bunny girl in the tavern.

In V0.8, the last of the three generals to be assassinated will be unlocked, and this one is the most important, with a longer process than the previous two generals.

After completing the task of assassinating the three generals, a faction battle gameplay will be unlocked. In short, it involves using recruited teammates for team battles, either for defense or assault, so recruiting more and stronger teammates is necessary.

This is the main way to advance Reynold's story.

At the same time, other faction stories will also be unlocked, such as the monster faction of Talanashta Phia.

The monster faction will also have similar faction group battle gameplay, as well as related quests and H events.

At this point (when you join monster faction), the story is nearing the endgame.

With some effort, WOS might be completed within this year.

Currently, there is no way to switch recruited teammates in V0.7.9, but it will be added in V0.8.

H Content

Besides the bunny girl in the tavern, V0.8 will feature a newly revamped large underground prison, with many new H events. Escaping the prison will be one of the main gameplay elements. (The current small prison will be removed)

Additionally, new monster enemies, goblins, and their corresponding H events, including pregnancy, will be added.

(Can't post here, so go discord or ci-en to see the sneak-peeks)

Moreover, not only new illustrations but also new pixel art styles will be updated with V0.8.

The aspect ratio of the game window will also change in the new version to facilitate the illustration performances during battles.

Thank you all for your continuous support.

Although my development speed is not fast, I will not give up on this game.

各位好久不见，一不小心沉静了三个月。

因为现实中工作很忙碌的原因，三月份，四月份和五月份没有推进多少游戏开发进度，所以都没能公布进度报告。

我觉得这不太好，所以五月的时候我在Patreon上暂停了收费（本以为会持续到七月，结果六月份又可以开工了）。我也有考虑暂时删除Ci-en上的收费Plan（因为不能暂停），但想想还是算了，总感觉突然删除掉了会有一种游戏被放弃了似的感觉，那还是算了。

不过我还是建议大家，可以等到我下一个版本更新公布后再加入Plan，我是不会介意的。

关于游戏引擎

由于画面大小和优化问题的原因，其实我在四月份有考虑过更换游戏引擎，促使我稍微学习了一下Unity，经历了一番心理纠结。

不过在最后还是决定先将WOS完成吧。

下一部作品我会使用新的引擎。

所以这次进度报告，其实也只是说明一下六月干了什么。

三月报告中的战斗优化我基本上都已经完成了，比如自由移动，攻击和技能连招等。

因为露娜不再被限制必须走格子，届时BOSS的难度大概也会上升吧？

流程优化也基本完成，在V0.8版本中的部分游戏地图会和之前的不太一样，但是路线不会有太大的改变。

再加上任务界面，我想各位应该不会再迷惑接下来该做什么了吧。

在玩家进入第二章，也就是在击败了炎骑士之后。

露娜需要加入雷诺德的军团，帮助他夺得军团长的位置。（理论上玩家可以选择不加入直接推进后面的剧情，但在后面剧情没能完成之前，大家还是帮一下雷诺德比较好）

在加入雷诺德的阵营之后，他的阵营基地将被扩大，会有更多任务和H事件，比如酒馆兔女郎之类的。

V0.8中会解锁刺杀三名将军任务中的最后一名，也是最重要的一名，流程会比前两名将军更长一些。

在完成了刺杀三将军的任务之后，会开启一个阵营战的玩法。简单来说，就是用已招募的队友来挑战团队战，防守或者攻坚，所以招募更多更强的队友是很必要的。这也是继续推进雷诺德剧情的主要方式。

同时，也将开启其他阵营的故事剧情，比如说塔拉纳斯塔·菲娅（Talanashta Phia）的魔物阵营。

魔物阵营也会有相同的阵营团体战玩法，以及相关的任务和H事件等。

到这里，其实故事也接近游戏后期了。

努力努力的话，说不定能在今年内完成WOS。

补充，目前V0.7.9没有更换已招募队友的方法，在V0.8中会添加的。

H方面

酒馆兔女郎以外，V0.8还有全新翻新的大型地下监狱，会有很多新的H事件。逃脱监狱是主要的玩法之一。（目前的小型监狱会被删除）

除此之外，也会加入新的怪物敌人哥布林，还有配套的H事件，包括怀孕。

另外，不仅是新立绘，新的像素风格也会跟随V0.8一起更新。

差点忘了，新版本下，游戏窗口的长宽比例也会改变，这是为了方便战斗中的立绘演出。

感谢大家一直以来的支持。

虽然我的开发速度不快，但我不会放弃这个游戏的。
