Note that the public release will be in 2 weeks. You can also skip the waiting time by buying Star Knightess Aura on itch.

And another month over! Another update coming up! Let's dive into a summary on what happened this month. If you are interesting the exact details of the development, please take a look into the individual devlog posts about the prereleases.

To start off with the usual number summary. We have 6 new mental changes, 9 new corruption scenes, 3 new lewd scenes, 2 new H-CGs, 1 new side quest, 1 new world event, and of course as most of you have already seen a bunch of new assets for Aura's character art as she progresses further down the road of the appearance corruption. Here is a screenshot of how far you can go in this release build.

Get Aura's hair dyed and permed, and improve her posture! Of course this is far from all the changes the next set of appearance changes will bring. I plan to continue work on this on the next month. Otherwise, most corruption scenes and mental changes introduced in this update serve in bulilding up towards the new appearance changes and then triggering them. Alongside the outer changes, you can also see Aura also changing on the inside little by little and taking a liking to being popular and receiving compliments on all sides.

Moving on to the progress in the isekai, there is a new side quest unlocking a new spell trainer who can teach Aura powerful spells that also massively help in the Darknor Fortress content introduced last month. Ofcourse, they come at an expensive price... 

Luckily, the hermit also accepts payment in terms of lewd favors. Which brings me over to the new lewd content. This is where 2 of the new 3 lewd scenes come into play. There third one hopefully arriving next month. The third new lewd scene can be found in the now accessible world event on the bridge towards Lumeria. Meet a small army of toll bandits that usually charge money to let you pass, but for Aura it's gotta be a blowjob. The new lewd scenes all focus on content >10 lewdness and bring us step by step closer to reaching the necessary lewdness levels required for sex (30+).

Talking about the sexual content, there has been a minor update to Aura's lewd resistance. The secondary lewdness stats now also reduce her willpower during checks, making the increase of them just a little bit impactful. To conclude on the sexual content, let's briefly also talk about the new H-CGs. One for the merchant in Arwin's domain, the other one illustrating the Aura getting fingered by doll Aura scene. Only one more left and the Formula Peddler's scene are fully illustrated.

Besides all these major changes, there's a couple of small stuff. As mentioned above the Hermit can teach you new powerful spells, so we have 3 new skills that can be added into the players arsenal. The Formula Peddler also has a new bomb formula in stock which counters flying and armed enemies, the world map of Roya has received some minor simplifications, and more.

The full changelog can as usual be found below. Have fun with this update!
