Yaradiel's crown update 0.6.4

Hey friends!

I hope you are having a wonderful day!

Let’s get to the new update!

What 's new?

• Added unity analytics for data collection (it’s optional!)
  I’m going to start with the big thing, which could be controversial.
  We added unity analytics to the game, so when you open the game you will see a thingy where you can opt to share the analytics or not. (you can then opt out if you want)

What data do we want? Characters data!

So far I have been using polls to have an idea of the player base, but roughly 15% of the player base only participates in our polls, so the end result may not be representative of the player base.
The whole idea is to get statistical data of player choices: gender, roles, talents, ero talents, weapons, trinkets, abilities, preferred and disliked sex positions, etc.
All of this is to find the weak, unused or uninteresting options, so we can make them more interesting or even replace them if nobody likes them. This is all the data we care for, and it is optional and none of the data can be used to identify anyone, it’s just character choices.

• Added Full Body bondage!
  It 's finally here! After preparing this thing for months and modifying a lot of the scripts, now the game has full body bondage. This works like heavy bondage, except it is not tied to any slot (previously there was only 1 slot for heavy bondage, now there is 3!), so it is possible for all characters to be in full body bondage at the same time, lol.
  Because I love to punish myself with hard work, I started with the hardest of them all: petsuits!
  So I added petsuits to the game as the first full-body bondage. I also changed the settings, so you can have different types of heavy-bondage: currently you can choose between furniture or petsuits, later you will be able to choose ropes or pleasure machines as well.
  
  

• Added the first Fullbody bondage restraint: Petsuit!

• Added 11 new sex positions related to the new fullbody bondage

• Added a new heavy bondage trap: cyber pet suit trap!

• Added the new heavy bondage trap to all tier 2 areas

• Added a new “grab” ability: Lewd mark! You cast a lewd mark to tell your companions to go and have sex with the marked enemy. (Sold by Tessa at level 10)
  This is the first “non-grab” grab ability. I will add some other things like this in the future. This one basically lets you point a target and you companions will try to fuck it as soon as possible! 

• Added a new mechanic: Protector enemies now can enrage if they are not damaged for more than 3 rounds (while the player is not grappled)!
  This is a way to make tank enemies more interesting, as normally they can just be ignored if they aren’t protecting anyone at the time, and their damage output is low. Now, if you ignore them too much they become violent!

• Added the option for players to select the restraints style for restraints they put on others

• Added a new original sex position: Atlantean missionary!

• Added a new original sex position: Tight cowgirl! This one includes MM and FF variants!

• Added toggles for different intensity levels for camera shake during sex

What changed?

• Ahegao face selection is now split between male and female characters

• Updated Combat UI background bars for better visual clarity

• Redesigned Devious gamble (now it literally is a gamble!)

• Updated combat AI to make characters enter sex with someone that has been recently put in hand restraints

• Companions health rebalance: Companions now take 135% base damage (down from 150) but have a bit less maximum Health. Overall damage needed to defeat them remains the same, but now player buffs and heals are more impactful

• Upon winning a combat, positive buffs are now extended by 50 seconds

• Updated weight painting on harnesses so the crotch area doesn’t deform so bad

• Removed hotkey toggle option, as it is now part of the game

And that’s all for this month!

Overall, this update had a massive amount of work done in the backend. Most of it you won’t see, but you will feel it, as things should be a bit smoother around performance, and we also worked a lot to get full body bondage working. Now the only thing that keeps me from more fullbody bondage options is making the animations (which are 30-50) per heavy bondage. I promise that the next one will be Hogties, as I know it is one of the most requested.

We also been working very hard on controller compatibility, but that shit is very fucking hard, so progress is slow on that front… 

A lot of the work went to making some options around sex more modular so you can better select what you want to see, and how. Some of the rebalances are made to make the non-direct damage, and support options more viable. I hope you enjoy these changes!

I think this is already a long post, so just, enjoy the new area and enemies!

As usual I wanna thank all of you who support us and keep the studio alive. Thank you!

Let me know if you find any bugs, and I'll fix it as soon as possible

Have a wonderful weekend!

Cheers!
