Cardiac Event Recorder - Update #98

[h2]New Event[/h2]

It's still March 21st until I wake up on the 22nd, alright!

This time I've added Storm Veyeral's event, or at least a part of it. As a SPOILER WARNING, I'm going to explain this new event in detail, and my future plans for it, down below. The main takeaway is that I'm going to be patching more content into it, along with other small stage events. The patches will come randomly every few days for the next few weeks!

Early Access updated game version to v8.22

[h2]Content Added[/h2]

  • 1 new Event (Total: 66)

[h2]Updates and tweaks[/h2]

  • Rage Boiler and Voladrome's battles are now affected by the wrathful battle effect (I will also be applying wrathful effects to all the remaining Rage Battles during the next few patches)

[h2]Bug Fixes[/h2]

  • Bug Fix: You could encounter one of the new stage events while you had a burden effect that would make all challenges impossible to pass
  • Bug Fix: Day Bloom was accidentally left at +1 burn defense when all other gifts in the flower set were buffed to +1.5 defense
  • Bug Fix: Rerolling monsters would not always correctly reroll gift challenges that became incompatible with the new monster


[h2]Gift Delivery Events[/h2]

Storm Veyeral's event is a sort of an evolved version of a Free Gift Event. I'm calling it a Gift Delivery Event. Some time after a fight with Storm Veyeral, you will get a scene from the perspective of Storm Veyeral who meets with another monster of your choice. During this scene, the other monster will give Storm Veyeral 1 or 2 gifts to deliver to your character. Then after the next battle, Storm will show up to actually give you the gifts that you chose in the previous scene.

Right now, the only choices are always Scrambla, Boiler, Calorie, and "Nobody" which is just Storm Veyeral finding a random gift on her own. The plan is for every single monster with a scene portrait, to have a possible interaction in this event! When I've added enough of them, the choices you get will depend on which monster's you've loved during the run, and if you've actually seen their individual event before. (This way the portrait's aren't spoiled too soon!) There will be around 50 unique monsters with portraits that will qualify.

The purpose of this event is to have more interactions with all the different monsters, and also see how they behave when your chosen Zaraden isn't around. Each monster has their own pool of gifts, and can have different reactions depending on what character you are playing as. There are also some interesting things that can happen when you get to choose gifts that you won't actually receive until after the next battle. I might also play around with how long the delivery takes.

For the next few weeks, I'll be patching in more monster interactions for this event. Along with more Stage Events here and there! Sandrome's event will also be added soon, since it will be the same type of event. Many of the interactions will share the same text between the two, so I'm kinda working on both at the same time! These event's will also get their own Dream/Achievement, but I needed to make more possible interactions first.

[h2]Upcoming Stuff[/h2]

As I said above, I'll be focusing on patching Storm Veyeral and Sandrome's events for the next few weeks.
(Sorry Chionotoh fans, I promise she's next. Actually, I don't promise, I can't be trusted!)

I'm also revealing what type of event all the remaining monsters get. Except for one which I haven't completely decided on yet. It's mostly all Bonding Time though.

  • Sandrome (Gift Delivery)
  • Voladrome (Bonding Time)
  • Shanx (Bonding Time)
  • Dendrohai (Bonding Time)
  • Lavalin (Bonding Time)
  • Chionotoh (Bonding Time)
  • Ventra (Bonding Time)
  • Blizzard Veyeral (???)


I won't plan exact days for the next patches, but expect something every few days!

Thank you for playing!
