Developer Diary (Domina) #2 (Patreon)

Welcome back for another dev diary scallywags.

In this update log, I would like to expand more on the new content specific to Mika and Maki (as it is what I've largely been working on the past week). As mentioned in the previous diary, extra content will be added both for the aforementioned Dominas during their personal questlines (before you defeat them in battle) and in the current timeline (after you defeat Hora). Specifically for the twins, the two additions are quite similar.

A new room has been added to the Congress of Troubles, the Court of Troubles. Here, Mika and Maki occassionally take the stand against each other, blaming themselves for all sorts of nonsensical and silly reasons that apperantly require a court meeting to be settled. Here you will be tasked to act as the judge, being of 'neutral and unbiased judgement', and choose which girl is correct in a series of arguments and cases that they will present to you. The whole scene is really meant to be comical, as much of Mika and Maki's content is.

Naturally, depending on which girl you favor more, you will get bonus points with said girl during the court case of their personal questline, which will affect their affection rates accordingly (and the path you'll take during their vanilla questline). As for the court case of the after-Hora timeline, favoring any of the girls will unlock separate small bonuses in the overarching plotline that will follow soon after, as well as unique dialogue.

Overall, the additions to the Twins are mainly dialogue-based. Their new quests include character growth and actually interacting with them (semi-)peacefully, instead of brawling; so perhaps this is something a lot of you will appreciate.
