The Monster Breeder News

Hi,

This update adds the surgery mechanism to the game. There are four different surgical methods to use on grown monsters:

• Autopsy
  
• Organ removal
  
• Organ implantation
  
• Combat surgery
  

Autopsy
Autopsy for research purposes can only be made on a live monster. Performing an autopsy is a prerequisite for learning surgical methods.

Organ removal
You must research organ removal to be able to perform it. Not every monster has a removable organ. This surgical method is lethal, all creature dies after the operation. The removed organs decay rapidly and lose 10 % of condition each turn.

Every removable organ provides 1-3 bonuses:

• Poison bonus
  
• Fire bonus
  
• Frost bonus
  
• Shock bonus
  
• Physical protection bonus
  
• Magic protection bonus
  
• Spiny skin bonus
  
• Strength bonus
  
• Agility bonus
  
• Endurance & Energy bonus
  
• Tameness bonus
  
• Resilience bonus
  

Organ implantation
This method can enhance multiple different traits of grown creatures. You must research organ implantation to be able to perform it. Depending on the level of research, you can implant up to three organs into each monster. The lifespan of creatures decreases after every implantation.

Inheritance of implanted organs
Every creature can have one removable organ with up to three bonuses. Offspring inherit random bonuses from the parent's implanted and removable organs.
Example:
You crossbreed two creatures:
1.) First one has two implanted organs providing three different bonuses.
2.) Second one has no implanted or removable organ.
Offspring have a 50 % chance of inheriting a removable organ. That hybrid organ can provide 1-3 different bonuses when transplanted into another monster.

Decay of organs
The condition of removed organs decreases by 10 % each turn. The condition affects the magnitude of the bonus that the organ provides.

Combat Surgery
Some of the monsters lost in lethal combat do not die instantly. You have one turn to perform a life-saving operation on a dying creature. It will lose some health points permanently but will survive and recover within a couple of turns.

Added:
Rename human characters.

Bugs fixed:
Only Runebow was available for sale in the stock of the Caravan.
There were no bows at the Weapon's Fair.

Hi All,

This update focuses on optimization mainly and there is a new button in the Options panel for switching VSync on/off. The FPS has increased by 20-40 on my laptop after optimization. I am using an Acer Aspire 3 (Intel Core i5, 8 GB RAM, GeForce MX230) for testing. I have also updated the Unity3D to a newer version and changed the build mode that further improving FPS. Unfortunately, the new build is totally different and it will take much longer to download this update. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Three new quests:
Runaway slaves banded together and set up camp in the nearby woods. You can get slave workers or human meat if you kill or capture them.

Some deserter set up camp not far from your estate. They are dangerous opponents due to their military training and equipment. You can obtain random loot, gold, and human flesh to feed your monsters.

A group of bandits set up camp in the nearby area. They are equipped with bows and leather armor. You can expect some loot, gold, and human meat if you win.

Bugs fixed:

• The arena info panel was missing for the Catacomb and five other cave quests.
  
• There were not enough ingredients to brew the second Potion of Cure in the crafting tutorial.
  
• Trainer skill increases even after reaching the maximum value of 100.
  
• Offspring trait info is occasionally missing from the monster breeding window or overlapping with other text lines.
  

This demo represents the Early Access gameplay and will last until the end of the first quest (Guild entry quest) or a maximum of 18 turns.

Please feel free to try this game!

This update focuses on new potions and balance changes. New potions make it possible to manipulate trait inheritance and create transfusable blood. The effect of multiple magic treatments has been significantly increased, and raising one hybrid is enough to complete the Guild's entry quest.

[h3]Added:[/h3]

Blood Potion
This new potion can be used to create transfusible blood. You can mix it with the blood of any creature.

Fire Extract
This potion raises the magnitude of inherited fire-related traits such as fire resistance, fire bite, and fire skin. It also increases the chance of inheriting abilities like fire skin, and fire spit. Furthermore, offspring will inherit lower fear of fire.

Frost Extract
This potion raises the magnitude of inherited frost-related traits such as frost resistance, frost bite. It also increases the chance of inheriting ice breath. Furthermore, offspring will inherit lower fear of frost.

Shock Extract
This potion raises the magnitude of inherited shock-related traits such as shock resistance, shock bite, and shock skin. It also increases the chance of inheriting shock skin. Furthermore, offspring will inherit lower fear of shock.

Poison Extract
This potion raises the magnitude of inherited poison-related traits such as poison resistance, poison bite, and poison skin. It also increases the chance of inheriting poison spit.

There is a new inventory panel in the Base Management window. It shows all the weapons, armors, and potions not used by the characters. It makes it easier to sell a large amount of unnecessary equipment.
