  1. Excellent. Do you still plan on having a visit to planet surfaces at some point? I’m just wondering. I remember you mentioning it a while ago. June maybe.

    1. Thanks for reminding me. if by public you mean just on this site then yes, and you wont need a password because I’m too lazy and busy to bother doing that. It’ll be later in the month, but this month. first need to see what I can do with this Arielle story.

  2. Well,i have been folloing this website like for 3 months i think maybe more,so far. Th game is good, and it seems,it’s gonna get more interesting,good work.btw i got some ideas for the game,where can we share it?

  3. I think I’ve found some minor issues. A couple I would like to verify first to make sure it isn’t just me. Sometimes there is a big box around where some text might be. I’m not sure if it is deliberate since it overlaps the ‘action’, if you know what I mean…
    Anyway, all the important stuff working well. 🙂

      1. Ok, good. Where was it reported? I didn’t see it.
        I haven’t been able to reliably duplicate the other things I noticed yet. They were small anyway.

    1. Yep, not counting new girls in this release. Vortex has said that a Lynn scene is in the works. He’s also said that he’s not sure if a Riley scene will be in the game due to her character’s personality. Personalty, I’m rooting for it.

      1. I’m going to get a riley scene done so I can scratch getting all the character a scene off my list heh. It might not be exactly what it is expected to say the least.

        1. She the beyotch type or something? Need to losen up her rear end to not be such a beyotch? I never really interacted with the three girls since they only seem to say one thing. Also they have one guard Lynn or something? What’s up with that?

          1. you will see.

            and yes they need to guard lynn, it’s a long story so the short version it she is daughter of really important people. they also need to protect her from the sex needing, revenge plotting, abusive maniac on the ship. also to protect her from her own bodyguard so this situation can be cleared up eventually.

  4. Interesting, waiting for a update, hopefully seeing the update soon, waiting for a long time and also for te Arielle story. In a future would it be a sequel?

    1. I normally send everything out to everyone at once but I normally post on patreon first. This time around Brigma pointed out some things I want to change first because I don’t really need multiple people telling me same things heh. I will spend time making those changes today and hopefully finish.

  5. I understand the motivation for removing Ari’s mini lasers, but I feel that this makes Ari extraordinarily weak. I realize the lasers didn’t actually work properly to begin with, but if you’re going to remove them instead of repairing them, I feel that there needs to be some replacement for Ari at least (Luma’s powerful enough already). As it stands, she’s now the only character with no passive ability (e.g. Rapid fire, fast attack ships, etc.). Moreover, I find her active skills to be somewhat lacking. The assault cannon is completely outmatched by Seduce and is limited to striking one node at a time and while the mega laser is good it really only buys you some time and does little to weaken the enemy.

    At the very least I would advise giving her the same rapid fire ability as other characters unless you have a better alternative.

    Otherwise though, the changes look good. The game is gaining more depth than I would have expected.

    1. yes I’ll have to give her a new passive. I’m still in a transitional stage.
      I still need to add stuff that explain the mechanics and stuff also.

  6. Buying mercs in the store should probably be adjusted. If you build up a decent amount of merc work force in the first area you can just keep buying more and more mercs every day in the 2nd area. Sorry if this is working as intended buy I have like 3000 mercs without doing any space battles yet.

  7. I got to say the new build makes the game much better. The girl getting injured is a nice touch to the game. Makes you more careful of what your doing. The tag system for the RTS Arielle teaming with Phia. The many combo team to go before able is nice. The gather button not having the mini game. I like it makes it. When you getting troops in your ship. Go as quickly as possible to take them out. The slaves, the merc it is balance in my eyes. Now playing the game on hard… boy is the game hard. It isn’t a easy picnic.

    Arielle talks about she catch Phia and Lynn doing something with the merc. She says Lynn isn’t as innocent as people believe. LOL Maybe Jeo checks his security cam to see if there is true to do. The option to punish Phia for that. He is trying to prove it wasn’t him. The last thing he needs is Lynn having marks on her etc.

    As for bugs can’t explain it, sometimes my partner girls don’t want to use there special ability on battle. Unless it was doing by you to make it more interesting or something.

    1. Thanks for the feedback, it is a fairly low chance the partner character will use the ability in battle.
      It should be able to add a scene like that. There are a few scenes I need to add actually.
      I haven’t tested the game on hard so good luck lol.

      1. On hard it is a very very pain in the ass. Do to the girls able to get hurt into recovery out of activity. And that there are more attack trying to steal your doc bay by the other troops. What I learn is at the beginning use Jeo a lot of the time. Have the girls train. But first you must get them to favor you. By using what they like for each girl. Than build there level up. On hard rushing to the next stage is a very very bad idea. By the way when the girls raid a ship. I think giving them exp as a train should be added for the raid.

        Let me say that on hard fighting the final boss is a pain in the ass even. Taking out all his ship. Unless you use the cheat code that makes it easy when you face him. I use one of the cheat just to test hard mode. The one that gives you a full bombs to use to raid the ships.

        I’ll try hard mode without any cheats. The reason I use it was to test some of the stuff in the game on hard. I’ll let you know if I come with a problem that is unfair. I think the beginning is unfair no matter the level being normal or hard. But hard sure have a higher rate of you about to fail on the mission.

        1. yeah the game is tweaked for normal mode so hard mode will definitely be hard.
          I was going to have it where the starting obey stat is a fixed amount also. Ari and Phia at 100, TT and Bri at 70.

          i’ll have to try it on hard to see what can be done. But yes I wanted Jeo to be more necessary early on and girls train up. Him or Arielle. I was thinking about buffing her assault ability a bit. and her passive would be attacking short bursts. I also wanted mercenary/agent support units and a few new enemy abilities.

    1. Do you know when 2.3 will be coming out?
      Sorry I haven’t been on for a long time now, real life stuff, meh….

    1. ARIA 2.3 comes with a separate file called raid_ships.swf. it also has a “sfx” folder for the voices. That file and folder needs to be in the same location on your computer and the main game file.
