Heroine Rumble 2 v0.14 - Male hairs, new grabs, equipment and more (Patreon)

Download HERE.

New patch is here! Here are some of the highlights:

First thing first. Added optional costs to grab abilities. This is because the RESTRAINT type grabs were really strong and can lead into easy infinite combos. So now RESTRAINT grabs have a shared 60 second cooldown. This might be too long and maybe needs more tweaking. Individual grab cooldown unfortunately conflicts with the game's grab compatibility replacement system so it has to be a shared cooldown. The "Magic Bind" grab also have a 40 ENERGY cost per use so you can't have an opponent on "Magic Bind" for 95%+ of the time during a match.

A new bunch of head scissor and face sit PUNISH type grabs. A new PLEASURE type grab "fm_suck_on_penis_standing" as well.

New short hair options for males, include a "bald" option too:

Equipment is (back) in game! Purchase them via Shop. You can open up gotcha boxes for a chance of getting even more powerful items than default!

New mission preview screen that include information on both enemies in 2v2 matches:

I been working on dialogue customization and pose customization as well, but feels like they wouldn't be in time for this patch, so decided to move those onto the next patch. (No new story  this patch either)
