Alpha Update 0.8
Hello again, bit of a bigger update this time. Quite a few bug fixes, but also lots of new content. There are status effects in combat, some new enemies, a new quest, the first sex scene with an NPC other than Lucy (with more on the way) and a bunch of new events.
More coming soon, so stay tuned!
Alpha 0.8 Patch Notes
Added
-New Monsters - You might start to see the undead wandering the forest. The cause is anyone's guess.
-New Weather Event: Fog. Exploring the forest takes longer, and you're more likely to run into trouble.
-New Forest Events. The Undead are causing some trouble.
-New Quest. Discover the source of the undead and figure out what can be done about it.
-Combat Status Effects: Some enemies are now able to poison and bleed you. Sorry.
-Poison: Deals 5 points of damage at the start of every turn. Cannot take your last point of health.
-Bleed: Halves the dice roll results when attacking, blocking and dodging. Bonus dice are unaffected.
-Both status effects clear at the end of combat, and can be cleared by taking the Recover action (once per fight).
-New sex scene with Scout.
Adjustments
-Updated some sex scene art (Added outfit variation and Fracture art)
Fixes
-Load error with kegs - could not tap 3rd keg in some instances.
-Dryad Event kept showing up even after moving her into the Greenhouse.
-Scout's upgrades will now accurately spend your resources.
-Fixed Merchant UI breaking when roads are dangerous
-Crash related to UI Gold change
-Tapping a keg while taking guests wasn't updating their availability.

Does the quest chain after researching just require a rare encounter? Completing the research doesn't seem to progress the quests.
No, you've just reached the end of that content until the next patch. Scout's quest chain is tied to her scenes and other events, and I'm still getting those implemented. Next update will progress it.
Is there some trick to farming the monster drops scout needs for upgrades? Went through a full season and only got 6 out of the 30 you need for all 3 upgrades.
No, they just have a low drop rate right now. I'm always adjusting balance, so this will likely get much easier later on. The next update has more content for Scout, and addresses some of that progression.
kk. Then I'll wait for the next update instead of grinding it out. Just completed my first year so this is a good point to wait and do the new season events and scout content in one go. Is her scene locked behind those upgrades or is it a different unlock condition?
Her scenes are locked behind other interactions. Specifically, you need a study area and to restore the Tower, and you need to perform research pertaining to the undead.
Ah, then it's probably that skeleton hand drop which has been eluding me so far.
EDIT: Met the undead.
EDIT: Nvm, I encountered her literally 5 minutes after making this post.
I was too busy to play V007 and started playing 008 now. Do I need a new save or is there a specific condition for meeting scout? My save was at end of Autumn and I'm not at 75 winter days left and haven't encoutered scout.
Scout's just playing hard to get.
In the final version of this game are you planning to allow pure love route with Lucy (or Scout), or will this game move more towards a harem route. Or will players have a choice to pick either route.
Both, and more. There will be different endings depending on what you decide to do.
Thanks for the reply
ETA on manual saving? I got burned by the auto save so i've been scared to jump back in.
The auto-save code has been updated and works much better now. That was the first step in getting the manual saves working - but they aren't quite ready yet. Working on staggered saves + save slots, no ETA at the moment though, sorry.
Edit: Actually, I'll be a little more specific. Staggered autosaves + save slots are probably out this month. Manual saves are quite a ways off because they break a lot of stuff in game right now. I'll need to set aside quite a bit of time to get them working, and it's one thing in the pile that needs to get done.
your best bet to get something akin to manual saving is to back up the auto save files of each ingame day somewhere so you can roll back to an older one if you mess up.
At the moment, yes. But I'd like to get something a little more convenient for everyone actually put into the game. Hopefully sooner rather than later.
