Tower of Triumph July 11, 2023 Update: Bugfixes Is Magic
New content:
* The desert now has music
* 1 new tower event: statue
* Bridge and pressure plate graphics
Mobile compatibility
* Compatibility mode now hides upper-right images
Magic system revisions:
* Spell levels from books have been removed from the game. No more 750+ damage firebolts.
* New spell: Dart
* Mage level 7 ability now regenerates mana on kills
* Mages start with dart, not firebolt
* Black Mage perk now grants firebolt
* Portal now costs 5 plus current Tower level mana, and it can be cast in combat
* Spells can no longer be learned directly from bookcases
Rule changes:
* The chest unlock/trap code has been completely rewritten, both fixing some bugs and changing the math. Rogues are more valuable now.
* Encounters now show monster type before combat begins
* Reptile morphs now grant optional chance to avoid battle before it begins
* All transformation consumables except slime and demon have been standardized so that their name matches their morph. What it says is what you get. Slime are an exception because they only have one fluid: goo, not semen or milk. And demons are an exception because the demon type has unique names per sex: succubus, incubus and omnibus are all demons, and will drop "demon meat." Otherwise, the exceptions follow the standardization. No more "wolf quad," no more cow meat from minotaur, etc. What it says is what you will become. Sex handling for consumables remains the name: milk makes you female, semen makes you male, meat (usually) applies no sex change. Non-consumable-sex-based transformation may occasionally continue to behave in unintuitive ways in cases where certain monster types have no members of a certain sex. For example, there are currently no male ants, there are no female wolves, etc. Note that the standardization may also result in outcomes that favor clarity of player experience over biological accuracy. "Snake milk," for example.
* As part of the above change, several monster types have been renamed for clarity. For example, "wolf" is now "wolf-morph" to distinguish anthropomorphic wolf-men from actual wolves.
* Mining requirements have been increased
Bug fixes:
* A whole massive pile of problems relating to transformations and body parts have been fixed
* Catgirl vaginal now logs virginity
* Best Guardian level is no longer applied as a spell bonus
* Fixed level 10 event pressure plate
* Best Lumberjack bonus is counted properly again
* Fixed a problem that could cause nav controls to disappear after using the magic circle to return to the tower
* Greedy now unlocks from piggybank deposits not gold drops
* Sex organ growth/shrink rates have been made slightly more sane
* Fixed some problems relating to fire breath vs magic attacks and fire vs magic resistance
