Vamps For the Memories

Simplied battle! Less softlocks!
Whew!

Been a while since we had an update like this. Thanks to everyone who let me know about bugs! Keep them coming!

In this update:

  • Removed TP, now your only stats are HP and AP (a combined MP and TP)
  • Added more clues for trading game
  • Leveling up is now based on progress and on XP
  • Made staring contest easier
  • Added new items
  • Fixed softlocks possible in block puzzle and castle graveyard
  • Revised dialogue
  • Cleaned up some sprites
  • Cleaned up tile z-indexing
  • Removed some lines from REM bit
  • Same amount of vore


Next up, eventually

  • Grind dungeon
  • Remastered music
  • Revised art

Core update and removed anti-malware false positive


This update will get the game to the newest RPGMaker Version.

Also Win 11 and some Macs have been deleting a library because it was flagged as dangerous. This was used for save files, so writing to disk probably flagged it. I've removed it. The save screen is now the out of box RPGmaker.

Thanks!

Staring Contest Help and More Gravestones



  • Updated the Inn conversation triggers, hopefully fixing the problem with initiating talk when first in town.
  • Added a Hint Ghost to allow for bypassing the staring contest, just enable the assistance under options and you'll be given a ghost that will let you skip the minigame.
  • Graves have been updated with items from friends of the game Haunted Husband (twitch.tv/HauntedHusband), Matty Francis (https://linktr.ee/Mattyfrances), and 'Rome Fitz (https://open.spotify.com/show/2MVFTUk6i5P3y4w6VeOTjY)
  • Boss battle balance improvements
  • Jokes and formatting tuned.


Want to be a friend of the game and get a gravestone in a future update? Sure why not. Finish the game and DM and me and I'll put stuff in.

Fix for Invisible New Game states
There is an issue with starting a new game where the state could leave you invisible or stuck. This fixes that start-up problem
