Hi everyone! ^w^

I’m excited to present you the new build of Kincaid!

What’s new?

First we have the new lady on the block of course! This mischievous prankster likes to hide in the level. She’s always looking to get a taste of unsuspecting victims. If she catches Kincaid with her tongue, our wolf girl will need more than a towel to dry off!

The kobold army got bigger and stronger! The brave slingshot warriors are joined by spear-wielders, bomb lobbers and three types of flappers: Bombers, divers and landers!

The new enemies have been added to all existing areas.

What’s changed?

We have changed the way energy works. In the past the blaster and the healing ability shared one energy pool. After playing the game like this for a couple months we weren’t happy with how it changed the pace of the game. Because the player was forced to choose between healing and shooting, the player would always prioritize healing. Effectively the blaster was left out of combat and was only used to open doors.

With the change we made, we’re giving the player one blaster shot for each melee attack they manage to land. At the same time the blaster was way reduced in power. We’re hoping that with this change players will use it more deliberately.

As for healing, defeated enemies now drop a new type of energy pellet. If you collect enough they will charge up your heals like you’re used to.

Known Issues

The biggest known issue is the grapple system working poorly with airbound enemies. It has become painfully obvious with the tiger and now we have flying enemies that can grapple. For the next build the whole grappling system is going to get an overhaul!

What’s coming next?

For the next build, I will work on the game over CG while Null fixes all the bugs you guys will probably find. We’ll also be adding a bunch of new sound effects for all the new enemies, interactions and mechanics!

For the mid-term roadmap, my next big project is going to be the main boss of the first area! I’m really looking forward to working on him! ^w^

Null and I wish you all a relaxing and fun week end~

Stay safe&sound,
Cookie & Null

Changed

  • Blaster now gets charged for each melee attack

If you previously had done the slime quest and you try to do it again on this version with an old save, the game locks up when you are supposed to find the second slime

Maybe I'm just terrible at video games but the Charger seems suuuuper OP, especially in groups. They attack really fast, and the dodge roll seems to be just short enough that you get put right in the path of the next attack, which comes immediately afterwards. (ref. the "groups" comment earlier, lol) Also running into a bug where they become invisible after a charge but can still attack, which makes it even more frustrating. I do enjoy the variety of enemies for sure but I think they need balanced a little more. Thanks for the new build, I've been digging it aside from that!

Thanks! I think we will tweak the charger some more, to make them a bit less aggressive, but they are meant to be a harder enemy ^^

This game really improved! Just started the current build and having a blast! A lewd one of course. Great work, thank you for making this!

i cant find any of the new characters and i completed the whole game over again. where are they? Gecko enemy? Bomb Lobber Kobold?

They are hard to miss. If you played the whole game and didn't find any flying enemies, spear guys, bomb throwers or geckos you might have played an old version by accident.

minor issue - I died simultaneously with the wolf boss, so the health-up spawned, but all I could do was hit ESC. Did so, it started playing the wolf game over, before cutting back to the bottom of the temple. immediately reset...to the bottom of the temple - autosave post boss fights is working fine, at least. But it did mean I missed out on the health-up. not a big deal - there are more than enough health-ups in the game atm to max out, even if you skip several, but I figured that the "you lost, no wait, you won!" aspect ought to be reported.
