The "Pregnancy Test"

It's here. the 'Pregnancy Test"!  

Alright, on to the good stuff, what's new?      

     Pregnancy - In Goblin Hole the player character has a chance to become pregnant after sex. You will see an icon of an egg being fertilized after a h-animation ends. Then, after you hit the "X" key, to stand up. A timer will start. You cannot see the timer onscreen, but know that you will give birth after a certain amount of time passes. You also, move slightly slower when Ember is pregnant. (I may increase this in future builds.) Goblins grow quick, and after a few seconds a fully grown goblin will be added to the current platform.      In the full version of the game you won't be able to stand quickly, like in the test demos. You will have to wait to get up. If you are on a platform that is too crowded. The goblins will keep you in a loop, and you will be forced to warp to the last checkpoint. The enemies you birthed will still be there when you return. This is how I hope to balance the difficulty in the game. Since in story everyone has infinite HP,. You only game over when you are forced to give up, and try again. This means you can be downed. You just have to be careful where. In this build, you have an %80 chance for Ember to become pregnant. This is just for the test. I wanted to make sure you could enjoy making tons of goblins. So it is really easy to knock Ember up in this build. It might not be that easy in the real game though. There will also be a cap to goblins per room in the real game. Right now that is not the case. You can spawn as many goblins as your PC can handle. Please share your high scores.      Pregnancy isn't only for combat difficulty. You can also use it for puzzle solving. There will be parts where you can make the enemies work for you. The Goblin Hole is full of other female adventures. They may have some items you need, or want.... I have included a very simple demonstration of this as a "secret" in the test. Make sure you talk to Lila. She'll have more to say on the topic.

     Mage Outfit- The first upgrade/power you will unlock. Allows you to "avoid" when you hold the "Z" key. (Can be dropped by killing goblins. Both outfits have 10% chance to spawn.)

     Nyth and Ember Sprites - I changed the faces of Nyth, and Ember's in game sprites. (I tried to add a little more detail. Mostly with Nyth)

     A new tune - I added a simple music loop I am working on to make the intro feel more lively. I am still working on both songs. They will be longer in the full game these are more like samples. I think they liven things up a little more.      Sound FX - I almost didn't add this, because I wanted more time. Sound is important in a game. I think it works for now, but know I am still working on this. I want to have some voice acting in game maybe at some point. So expect the games sound design to evolve. (Thanks to, eneasz, ryanz-offical, magnuswaker, donnydb, lizanejordaan, soundchad1, for the sounds.)      New H-Animation - When Ember is downed, she can now land on her front, or backside. This will determine what animation plays if she is grabbed. I intend to have 2 animations per side. In this test I am adding the first backside animation. As well as, Ember now being able to fall on her back.

     Secret H-animation*s* - You'll have to find the secrets. If you've been paying attention you should figure it out. Just a sneak peek, you'll have to wait for the sub demo for the big finish.

     Misc. Game improvements - In general I made the goblins work better. Adding the pregnancy system showed me how broken the goblins interacting with the MC was. So I have improved the way the goblins work, and animations trigger in general. I do expect some bugs, but things work much better than the first test. You can also skip the intro cutscene with the "backspace" key. The intro hasn't changed much, and it is still in a very WIP state. So if you'd like to skip to where you can play, just press backspace once the scene starts.     

 Shout out to my subs on Subscribestar! Thank you for your support. Also to my top tier supporters for helping me beta test this build. Let me know what you all think. Any feedback is really great.
