Plan for Content Patch 0.5
Added 2019-04-29 11:43:09 +0000 UTC0.5 will again have a focus on items, and together with 0.4 it is blazing a trail for two new courses: Enchantment and conjuration.
Items currently have some hidden stats that allow for base items of the same type to have numerous varieties.
Size variety: Clothing will have a size variety that affects how well it fits your character. Having small breasts may for instance cause a bra to hang lose, or huge breasts cause a bra to squeeze them tight. While a magical item will change its size when stretched beyond its limits or to prevent itself from falling off, a normal item might burst or fall off when your character changes size. Likewise, you will not be able to equip clothing which is significantly too large for your character etc. Some items may also have more exotic and magical size varieties, such as a rubber dress that will always cling tightly to your skin, or a blouse that turns into body paint when worn.
Color variety: Colors won't affect the color of the sprite, but almost any equipment item and also some other items can have their colors changed in various ways. This also allows you to conjure an entirely pink attire for your opponent, or even transparent.
Ornament variety: Adds a bow, heart, bat etc. to your outfit or somebody else's.
Shape variety: The concept of a base item is that any thong is a thong, and thongs that vary in shape are each a different shape variety of the same base item. Unlike color varieties, shape varieties change the sprite of an item.
Spells, hexes, and items can change the base or variety of an item in numerous ways, and in the future item varieties will affect how NPCs react to you as well. Otherwise, they are mostly cosmetic and meant for RP.
Item varieties will make up the brunt of the work on 0.5, though the patch is also planned to bring better loot RNG, more items (in relation to item varieties), stackable items, and a sex act or two I didn't manage to finish for 0.4.
The patch may also contain more work by Cameroo, Joe Nobody, and Ink. :)
Please let me know whether this is something you will be looking forward to!
Cheers,
Tinon
