DLA Side Chapter Completion - Changelog

Changelog, Side Chapter Continuation

The main focus of this update is to finish up the WIP areas of Side Chapter, and as such, finish up the chapter in general.

Side Chapter additions:

• Crystal shards have now been added to the chapter!,
• The chapter now has new, powerful items for all the chests rather than just reusing the same items as in Chapter 1
  • Included in these new items are much more powerful versions of equipment you could find in Chapter 1!
• The secret area is now available in the Elven village and has been changed
  • You will need the 'Peculiar Eye' item from Chapter 1 to access it
    • Alternatively, you can buy the 'Peculiar Eye' item from a shop you can unlock by collecting 46 crystal shards and handing them in to the shop in the hub area
• The beach area to the east of the castle town as well as the village to the south are now available as well
• The secret area under Artolia (the first village you come across in Chapter 1) is now available and has had additional secrets added to it!
  • This will be related to a side quest as well
    • This side quest's story assumes you have done the side quest which involves collecting 4 orbs in Chapter 1
• A new town with a side quest that you can visit from the world map
  • You can find this town on the left part of the overworld to the south of another town,
• A new consumable can be found around the maps called 'Corrupted Tears'
  • This item damages the recipient for 25% of their Max HP, but also buffs all of their stats for 5 turns
    • This item can also be bought from the unlockable shop in the Goddess World (Hub area)

Side Chapter Changes:

• Changed the overworld slightly,
• The boss fight of the Side Chapter now has two different versions depending on your choices.
  • As such, the Lilith solo version of the boss fight has become easier
    
    

Goddess World (Hub World) Additions:

• One new unlock has been added to the Crystal Shard shop; this one requires 61 Crystal Shards
  • The new unlock is a casino down in the basement of the shop which is essentially a replica of the Chapter 3 casino.
    • As such, this unlock only becomes available after finishing Chapter 3.

Various changes:

• The pickaxe weapons can now be equipped by anyone in the party.
  • Considering they are support/debuff weapons, it makes more sense that the others would use them rather than only Alice
• The Goddess Robes armor (Alice's Ultimate armor) has been buffed
  • It now has MP regen, HP regen, and TP regen as well as one additional Rune slot
    • It also gained 10% resistance to Magical & Physical damage
• The shop you unlock by handing in 46 Crystal Shards to the merchant in the hub area now also sells the 'Peculiar Eye' item for 300 Gold in case you missed it during Chapter 1
• Lowered volume on some maps in the game,
• Fixed some clipping issues,
• Some maps' object placements have been changed slightly,
• Lowered the volume on most maps in Chapter 1
  • They had been quite a bit louder than most other tracks in the game

Bugfixes:

• The training ghost you can unlock in the Goddess World (Hub area) now has a battleback
• Alice now actually gets her two new skills: 'Water Slash' and 'Rán's Ocean' when upgraded
  • This was an oversight where I had forgotten to add these new skills to her moveset.
• Fixed the pickaxe weapons so that they now actually debuff the enemy,
• Fixed a bug where you would get stuck on a black screen when trying to get to one of the new maps in Chapter 3
• Fixed some text formatting issues as well as spelling mistakes
