Hex: Becoming a Succubus [Ongoing] - Version: 0.2.3

What's New in Hex: Becoming a Succubus Version - 0.2.3?

Bug fixes

• [Misc.] Fixed issue where certain goals were not completing properly.

Content

• [Erotica]Added new activities to the Richdon location.
  • Added a new activity: a real-time gameplay mode you can do at Richdon Port. Serve as a port wench and give the sex-starved sailors as many blowjobs as you can before you run out of energy!
  • You can also unlock the ability to accept bukkakes from sailors (make your seaman jokes, I’ll wait). This activity can be appended to the port wench activity or done separately once unlocked.
• [Cosmetics] New outfit: Astral Apparel. This outfit is tied to a skill and has a premium variant.

Additions and enhancements

• [Combat]Added new mantras!
  • [Niyama: Windless Sea] Allows you to equip a third spell school. (Very high MP reserve, though!) Received from Meila in the throne realm after meeting certain conditions.
  • [Asana: Untouched Pasture] Boosts dagger damage based on the ratio of current MP to maximum MP. Received as a reward from Red Sand for reaching rank 3.
• [Skills]Some new skills have been added!
  • Nightsea Radiance: Allows you to summon the Astral Apparel outfit when nude and dismiss it at will. Functionally the same as the existing Dryad’s Vestments spell, but summons an elegant outfit rather than a slutty one.
  • Spiritual Insemination: Most sex acts, including lesbian sex, can now result in pregnancy, though at a reduced rate compared to vaginal sex.
• [Encounter] Added new “personality” system to alter the dialogue from sex partners. For now, there are only two personality types: normal and shy, alongside some special interactions for partners under transformation effects (e.g., vicis). In the future, there will be even more personalities!

Balance and progression

• [Combat]Adjusted lunar magic. While the damage of the school at higher expertise levels and in ideal conditions is slightly lower, the overall usability should be improved, and madness should now have a slightly more unique identity in your kit compared to lust. The expertise passives of the school have been shuffled around a bit. In addition to the below changes, the spell lunacy’s damage also received a slight buff.
  • Adjusted the base damage of all lunar magic spells. This is a slight damage nerf overall.
  • Second expertise passive has been removed (originally this passive boosted damage bonus at night from +15% to +30%). Now damage is always boosted at a rate of +25% by default.
  • The first expertise passive (boosts lunar magic damage based on rot stacks) was moved to the second expertise passive slot.
  • A new first expertise passive has been added: “When madness causes an enemy to flinch, the caster regenerates a small amount of MP.”
  • The third passive, which grants the spell avelunacy a chance to add 20 bonus madness stacks, is unchanged.
  • Further changes may be warranted, but for now I don’t want to change too much at once.
• [Activities] Made a few adjustments to Red Sand progression and brothel mode’s information gathering system. The base odds to receive information has been increased. The amount of information you have to gather to rank up has been halved. For ongoing saves, this should retroactively apply the next time you turn in information in the brothel’s backroom.

Technical

• [Engine] Created and shipped a Steam demo based on v0.2.3. The demo is now available on Hex’s Steam page. The demo just covers the first part of the game up until you leave the village. Saves can be transferred from the demo into the full version, but not vice versa. For now, other than the overlay, no other Steam features are supported yet, but achievements are planned, and I want to try to work on cloud saves as well for the Steam Edition. Hex will release into Early Access on Steam sometime later this year or early next year. Wishlist it now!
