Hello everyone!

Happy Friday! I hope everyone had a nice week!

Today, I brought you build 0.11 of Ethereal Sunder.

This update has 2 new erotic scenes for your enjoyment. The first one is the third event for Bereck, and the second one is a special service scene that can trigger during the apples offering task.

I would like to add that Eilayda’s actions in Bereck’s scene were bolder than I intended. However, I planned from the start to only do three scenes for Bereck, meaning this is the last one, so I ended up writing this scene in a way that finally establishes their relationship.

All in all, I’m very satisfied with the result of this scene, and I hope you like it, too.

On the other hand, the special service scene is the first of a group of scenes I plan to add for the offering apples task. Now, I must clarify that there is a 50% chance that you will get this scene AFTER you are harassed while offering apples. So, if you don’t see anything different than before, I invite you to keep offering apples until it triggers.

The next addition of content in this build is the Haunted Mansion dungeon. This dungeon is very simple compared to the Path of Strength dungeon. I felt that exploring a ridiculously large mansion with lots of rooms and strong enemies wasn’t going to be a very fun experience. So, instead, I made the dungeon simple to navigate and with a fairly simple condition that you need to complete in order to advance.

Moreover, to maintain the haunted atmosphere in the mansion, I used a different tileset than the one I regularly use. So, I’m very happy with how it looks.

However, one thing I’m not very happy with is the mansion's boss. I feel it lacks the skills or mechanics to differentiate it from a regular enemy of the mansion. Unfortunately, I couldn’t come up with an idea to make the fight more exciting before releasing this update, but I’ll most likely revisit this boss in the future and change some things.

One last thing: There was supposed to be a scene that play when you return after completing the ‘Haunted Mansion’ dungeon. However, I didn’t like it. I wrote this scene a long time ago, so now that I have made some other changes in the story through the development, it felt strange, and the pacing was also too fast for my liking. Hence, I decided to scratch it from this update in order to rewrite it for build 0.12.

This doesn’t affect the other content, but you might feel that the story suddenly halts after completing the new dungeon. So, I would like to apologize for that.

That’s all for this update! I’ll leave here the list of content added in this build for those who are interested:

•  New: Added the third scene with Bereck. Available with corruption level 2.
• New: Added a choice selection for after you get harassed during the offering of apples that triggers a special erotic scene. Available with corruption level 2.
• New: Added the ‘Haunted Mansion’ dungeon. You can access it by following the main road on the ‘Iron Bones Territory’ map.

As always, thank you for your support, have fun with the new content, and enjoy your weekend!
