Star Knightess Aura version 0.18.0
For the first time of this year, we had a 5 week development update and I think it's pretty well reflected in the amount of content of this update. For the details on each weekly update, you can check out my patreon devlog posts. As usual, I will be giving an overview of this month's changes in this post.
Let's start with some numbers as always. On the art side, there are 1 new CG and 2 pose variations that were used to illustrate a total of 5 lewd scenes. Content wise we have 3 new lewd scenes, 8 new real world scenes, 2 new dungeon areas, 8 new mental changes, and a bunch of other smaller goodies like new drugs and a new dark spell that grows stronger with Aura's collected vice.
So, let's get into the more spoilerish territory of the update post. Beneath Nephlune, you can now find 2 new areas: The Underground and the Underground City. Before you were already able to enter the Bar in the Underground City, now you can also enter it through a secret entrance in the Underground. The Underground itself is a fairly standard dungeon with a returning gimmick. In general, the focus of the enemies in this update focus on damaging Aura by inflicting Corruption - if not mitigated.
Together with the addition of the Drug Dealer, the drug system has been reworked. You can no longer drug your companions (lmao) and instead of just a boring +2 Corruption you now gain +1 Corruption and +1 Addition. The latter is a new passive state that models the medium term consequences of drug consumption by debiliating Aura and making her highly prone for getting pinked into lewd scenes rewarding drug consumption.
On the real world side, we have finally completed the scenes and mental changes for the make-over ministory arc. The new notable additions this month is the inclusion of the new outfit, make-up, and bangle accessories. There are still a couple of unsused art assets such as an expensive ring, nail polish and changing Aura's base expression, but I will be mixing them in into later updates so we have some more appearance changes inbetween this make-over and the next set further down the future.
Most of the mental changes yet don't have too many corruption scenes as I have focused my efforts on only those that are necessary to further drive Aura's gyarufication forward. Next month I plan to focus more on "reaction" type scenes. Expect the library club members and Rose to make a re-appearance here.
That covers most of the new additions of the update. There are various details such as new boss fights in the Underground or the Spell Shop in der Underground City but I leave it to everyone to explore these by themselves.
Oh right, and I made a last minute, "tiny" change of reducing the minimum day time between testing periods to 7 days (determines among others the amount of time that needs to pass after removing the first Studying Book and then removing the second one.) I did some testing and everything worked but there is a chance I broke something there. :'D Maybe should have waited till bugfix week to do this but it's been on my todolist for so long I decided to squeeze it in. Well, let's see what happens.
Anyways!! That's about it! Have fun playing. For those who look forward for a bugfree experience, maybe wait out for next week's 0.18.1 build. :''D Over the last months, as the game is growing more and more, I feel like my own testing is only being a drop in the quality ocean. But yeah, enough about that. Have fun with the update, the changelog is as usual below. And for the plans in the upcoming month, I'll be as usual create a Project Plan post somewhen next week.

Just a question, love the game but is how do you do a corruption run? I've seen like walkthroughs but they don't say when exactly to corrupt Aura, is there any help you may give, many thanks! PS Love the game and do I have your permission to cosplay Aura?
Sure. You can corrupt Aura how you want, just make sure you don't produce too much corruption or play on a lower difficulty.
What's the luck item the maid needs?
Two possibilities, for one check out the bookstore.
Thank you. I thought I'd read and sold all the books
Amazing game came for the porn stayed for the plot
How are the Withdrawal effects triggered?
Consume some drugs and wait some time. (Check Addiction state under Special)
