Star Knightess Aura version 0.5.0


If you are interested interested in details about the features and contents, check out my previous prerelease devlog posts:

Save games should be compatible, but no promises! Just copy paste your old save game folder. Please note that there was a slight change to the folder structure!

There is quite a lot of new content including two new areas:

  • The Refugee Camp which half dungeon, half village!
  • The Forest south of Jacob's House: This is a very small area but with what I hope is a very interesting mini boss fight!

Fight a new duel, learn new skills, pass your evenings by reading books, new minibosses and refight old minibosses in new constellations. There are also a couple new items which I used to improve the loot in the Northern Mines. 

Speaking about the Northern Mines, the encounter designs there have received quite a lot of rebalancing. Scorpios are now much weaker and slower (both in battle and on the map) and can be easily defeated with a certain anti-heavy armored enemy skill!

There's also a bunch of bugfixes and convenience improvements. Including better descriptions of states, better markings of locations on the world map, mapping improvements, improvements in some default choices at NPCs, and so on.

In terms of lewd and corruption content you can now enter the Happiness Room and when you find the Appearance Room you will see that is had a major overhaul as well! Also you can find a new lewd scene, 3 new corruption scenes, 5 new interactions -- including inserting Alicia into the "Going Home Relationship"!

As for the non-corrupt real world events, you will find a new walking home scene with Rose!

Also for those who want to do a lewd playthrough you will now find a Defeat Score in the Clear Room! Max out Aura's lewdness for NG+ Score! You won't be able to reach as much Score as a purity playthrough but you will be able to purchase at least some boni. Also in case you only manage to get a small amount of points, there is now a new cheap option for spending Score on more starting Gold!
