Growing Vengeance v0.4

Hey guys!

It's here! Although the story isn't as long as the other versions, there's more backtracking this time around. When you hit certain sizes, (and you've been a monster to the townsfolk), try revisiting older areas. Maybe something might change?

Also, there's definitely an easter egg in here you will find. (And you should, it's story related).

Also, you will have to start again sadly. Since the beginning has been changed and how variables are calculated, not starting again will actually disadvantage you big time. Plus some new plugins.

Few other changes:

- Enemies have been changed slightly. Most will have a piercing attack, so if you stack defence, you will still take damage.

- Growth Potential has been altered, you will now gain new skills instead

- The Max Height you get is increased for absorbing special enemies / story

- EXP curve dropped a little for Isabelle so it's easier to level up.

- Growth Points now just reduce by 100 when you go over, so it won't reset.

- Fixed up some fight scenes so they should run a bit smoother

- Isabelle sprites were completed. Unfortunately it's just hers at the moment. The sprite artist needed a break for personal reasons, so I may commission the rest at a later date.

Known Bugs:

- When characters talk in battle, their bust graphics are misaligned. This unfortunately is just due to the script for busts not working well with the battle core from VisuStella. So it cant be avoided. Waiting on either a fix for it, or I might just try make a workaround.

Please use the links on the post "Itch io" as they will be the most updated ones!

I did test a fair bit. Most of it should work with no issues. If you do encounter any bugs, let me know :D (the mac one I'm not sure about, I don't have a MAC to test on, so if you guys have issues with it, I'll do what I can!)

Now for a bit of housekeeping.
I'm actually starting a new job in a week. So my time will be greatly diminished. I'll still look to release at least one thing per month (either Growing Rivalry or Growing Vengeance). But if I am out by a couple of days, I apologise in advance!

As always, thank you guys so much for all the support, hopefully you enjoy this update (although it's probably a little small...) and look forward to Growing Rivalry v5.0 next month :D


EDIT:

Forgot to remove an event in one map which will bounce you back. Download the JSON file. Navigate to the data folder in the game contents and paste this one over the original. You can then continue normally.
