Version 0.9e - Dojo Update

New features

Exploration

-a new icon has been added to the right clipboard UI. This will take you to places outside of boxing gym. For now, I've only added one location. I will at least add two more.

Dojo

-an alternate way to train your boxer's stats. Pay a fee to participate in a survival mode style matches in a dojo to earn training tokens. Use the training tokens in the Dojo to train two different stats at once. The more tokens you stack, the more experience bonus you gain.

Balance Changes

-When boxer is fully depleted of stamina, you can't use focus commands until he stops sweating. -successful evasion now rewards 10% stamina. -nerfed multiplier bonus for Hotdog minigame. -reflex now governs the evasion rate of the boxer instead of focus. -successful evasion grants 1 morale point. -slightly raised stamina regeneration amount for faster gameplay. -nerfed GP gain amount from recycling equipment from 60% to 30% of equipment's original GP value -made survival mode a lot easier -the V shortcut key has been improved to be compatible with more circumstances in the game. -slightly improved some user interface graphics.

Bug fixes

-Lily actually charges proper amount of money. -Respeccer actually charges proper amount of money. -fixed focus commands not working under certain unintended scenarios. -combo discovery no longer occurs when boxer has broken knee injury. -fixed a sponsor mission related problem where the mission target was not available for scheduling until you wait a few days. -changed the spawn condition for Lily to prevent her from appearing when she isn't needed.

Developer's note

Hi everyone, Krukov here. I'm sorry that it has been almost a year since I last updated Victory Road. End of last year was a very difficult time for me in terms of IRL. So it has been hard to actually find the time and motivation to develop the game. The good news is, I think I'm pretty much back on track now. So hopefully I can grind away the next few months to finish this project.

This version contains the new exploration menu. I've been meaning add more locales to this game for quite some time now, but that actually required me to turn some parts of the game completely upside down. I've tested the game to see if there are any possible problems due to the changes, but I haven't found any so far. Do let me know if you find anything weird. Maybe it would be safe to backup your saves just in case.

Next update is probably going to be about remaking the random event system in the game while also adding various minor tweaks to make the game better. I hope to see you guys again soon!
