PUBLIC RELEASE - v0.17.8b - COMBAT AND CONQUER!
🕑 Added 2023-03-01 03:42:39 +0000 UTCPATCHED RELEASE!
The weekly update has been released!
This update is available to EVERYONE! Patrons who downloaded Sunday's update don't need to download this one, although it does contain two days of patches.
Yes, after long weeks of waiting, it's finally here! The Command... er, that is, the Combat and Conquer systems! Plus crafting, dungeon, supplies, skills... well, the list goes on! I'm really sorry it took so long, and I'm back to weekly updates now. I hope you enjoy! :)
PLEASE READ!
IF YOU ARE ON WINDOWS, LINUX OR MAC IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT YOU DO NO OVERWRITE THE OLD UPDATE WITH THE NEW ONE! JUST EXTRACT THIS UPDATE TO A BRAND NEW FOLDER AND PLAY! THE GAME WILL TRANSFER YOUR SAVE FILES FOR YOU!
KNOWN ISSUES:
Due to the necessity of changing the User Interface, there will be quite a bit of jank (Hana looks like she's been cut in half, for example) and some screens (such as the skill, inventory, fighter and crafting screens) haven't had a UI pass and look kinda janky. All this will be fixed in the next few updates, so please bear with me until then. Thank you!
CHANGELOG:
- COMBAT: It's here! It's finally here! You can now engage in combat in CK! Woo! Details below:
- COMBAT: Currently you can only attack CRESCENT HILLS on the War Map!
- COMBAT: You can choose to FIGHT, SEDUCE, use your POWERS, ITEMS or RUN (provided you're not fighting a boss-type character)
- COMBAT: Multiple FIGHT and SEDUCE skills to choose from, each with their own damage and special effect!
- COMBAT: Gather new skills and equip up to fifteen (six physical skills, six seduction skills and three powers)!
- COMBAT: Start with only one POWER slot and train to unlock more!
- COMBAT: POWERS are extremely powerful skills, but you can only assign up to three and only use them once per battle! So strategize wisely!
- COMBAT: You can fight SOLO, with SUPPORT or with a SQUAD!
- COMBAT: Squads will fight in the background, gaining or losing you morale which will give you buffs or debuffs!
- COMBAT: Choose which of the girls (or yourself!) you want to be a FRONTLINE or SUPPORT fighter!
- COMBAT: LEARN new skills by setting MC as SUPPORT and using unique skills with the FRONTLINE girls!
- COMBAT: Combat victory outcome will change depending on if you got a FIGHT VICTORY or a SEDUCTION VICTORY!
- COMBAT: ITEMs will drop after combat! Use them in battle or for certain events!
- COMBAT: Each enemy has their own AI "type" (Tank, Chemist, Seductress, etc.) and will behave differently to other AI types!
- COMBAT: Added a very basic battle tutorial. I'll likely refine this as time goes on, but it should be enough to get everyone up to speed
- CRAFTING: You can now order SUPPLIES! Talk to Hana, or use the notebook in the kitchen after training with Jessica
- CRAFTING: You can now CRAFT supplies! Use them in battle or for certain events!
- DUNGEON: The dungeon is back! You must have bought the DUNGEON upgrade in Act Two!
- DUNGEON: You can now "break" Boss Girls you capture (takes six attempts at most) to recruit them!
- DUNGEON: You can "roleplay" the "breaking" process with any Boss Girl you have recruited!
- WARDROBE: "Change Hairstyles" was removed and will be replaced with "Change Accessories" in a later update
- UI: Changed a bunch of UI elements, partially to accommodate changes to this version and partially to prepare for future update plans. These changes are not universal or necessarily permanent! They will shift constantly over the coming weeks
- UI: Trying a "deployable" thing with the top nav bar. Partially to regain some screen real estate and partially so that people can see the entire image when they click the "hide UI" hotkey. Not sure it works, so it might be reverted. We'll see
- UI: Moved the quick menu on Android to the top of the screen. Gotta free up that right hand, gentlemen!
- CHEAT: Added an "Add Dungeon to Manor" cheat to the laptop
- Bug: War erupts, but Gwen & Ami: Kid Detectives know that it's just a cover for the jam thief! I mean, look at this battlefield... jam everywhere!
I hope you enjoy this week's update! Next Early Access update will be Monday, 6th of March.

I suppose that this is the point where I note that I haven't found where to get the recipes for Pizza or Salad either...
If you have an item (Pizza, Ramen or Salad) then you should be able to use it in combat. But a few people have had trouble so I'll be looking into it today. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Quick question about the combat UI: how do you use items mid combat?
Patrick Murray
because only 1 zone is able to be captured atm.

I don't understand why this is a minor update. So much stuff has changed.
New patron here, love the game but i had two questions, i have stopped before act 3, and i cant seem to unlock the 4th scene for Asteria? I have the 5th scene done, did i miss my chance? Also is there anything that can be done with the quiet girl in the library? Looking forward to more updates!

It does indeed but I'll have to wait a bit longer. Not enough space on my phone lol
Sounds like a great time to jump back in, then! ;)

I haven't seen an update from y'all in so long, my own fault lol, that I have no idea what any of these updates are talking about. Last update I remember is the split personality person being added to the manor
Well the story is well done, and the character are really likable as well.
First, try installing with Split APK Installer (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aefyr.sai&hl=en_GB&gl=US) If that doesn't work, proceed to the next steps: Follow the steps below, exactly as written: 1. Backup the existing game files using File Manager or similar. 2. Delete CK completely from your phone. 3. Download and install the new CK update 4. Move the save files from your backed-up copy into the new CK folder (Remember the "persistent" file if you want to keep your gallery unlocks) 5. Play! (Also, bear in mind that the way Android works you usually need between two to three times as much storage space as the game requires to install it, so if the above doesn't work it may be a storage issue!)
Haha, well it IS an adult game. I'm glad you're enjoying it, though :)

After downloading the update on Android, how to i install it so it works? Every time I try to install, it says app not installed
Just wanted to say, I'm a new member but you've made a good game; even if it's just somewhat a vessel for the naughty bits.
