Escape from Hell v0.0.10

Gameplay
Your task in this game is to find a way to escape captivity with all the girls. To do this, you need to free them from their shackles and fulfill certain conditions. You need to secretly explore the location and collect resources. The collected resources can be used to brew various potions and prepare food. Remember, if you are hungry, your strength will not be replenished and your wounds will not heal. Some valuable resources, such as the key to the shackles, can only be obtained after fighting enemies.

At the moment, only part of the mechanics have been implemented, and it is not yet possible to complete the game. You can only familiarize yourself with the current version, decide if the project is interesting to you, and whether you want to support it.

v0.0.10

I've added a visual indicator to track quest status. If the quest's requirements are met, a green checkmark will appear on its label. This means you can go turn in the quest. I've also unlocked the door to Akubisa's room. Now you can use her cauldron to brew potions.

v0.0.9

In this version, I've revamped the combat mechanics. Now, after winning a battle, you return to the game scene. The gameplay doesn't interrupt, and the scene doesn't reload.

A loot bag will spawn near the enemy's body. Loot only appears after a battle. If an enemy is caught in a trap, no loot will be dropped.

The final quest for Darcy to find the key to the shackles has also been changed. Now you’ll need to retrieve it from a chest on the second floor of the castle.
I’ve also added the ability to remove an item from your inventory by dragging it outside the bag.
The option to eat the ingredients used to prepare food has also been removed. Now you can only eat ready-made meals.

v0.0.8

A new character, Fei Hu Lin, has been added to this version. She is located in a separate location—the prison. There is a quest chain consisting of 5 quests for her. By completing them, you will unlock new content.
There is a new trap: pitchforks.
There is a new mechanic: hidden attacks from behind with and without weapons.

The following has also been corrected and reworked:

• Do not spawn the key for slaves before the quest.

• Do not spawn Acu potions in the reward room.

• Increase the chance of water spawning.

• Craft potions one at a time instead of 5

• Hotkey to open inventory

• Add shared chests to the location in several places

• Rework the patrol logic for enemies so that they walk to their points

• Improve the passability of the location to Aku (more hiding places inside)

• Goblin keys and traps spawn in groups of several

• More chickens for traps

• Plants respawn after a certain amount of time

• Increase the spawn rate of roots for soap

• Replace the quest to find grass for Aku with feeding her fish

• Deduct energy and satiety after a hidden attack

• Fast movement around the location

• Increase the number of slots in the player's chest (add scroll)

• Remove enemy visibility through the floor

v0.0.7

In this update, I added some content to the game.
Now there are additional places where you can hide from enemies in the form of boxes and barrels with their own animations for each character.

An additional quest has also been added for the merchant Aku to create a potion that can be used to poison food.

With the help of poisoned food, you can set another trap for your enemies.

v0.0.6

In this version, I added 6 new "love" animations for the character Darcy. Now she can also “remove” the goblin debuff.

The ability to collect all contents from chests has also been added.

A confirmation window was also added before using the key.

v0.0.5

In this version, I added a quest line for the merchant Aku.
There are 6 tasks in this line, including gathering ingredients and searching for items.
A mechanic for collecting items that spawn in the location has been added.

A storage location was created for the quest to find the book for Aku.
There are no places to hide in this location.
Therefore, you will have to go through it in stealth mode and use traps.

After completing the ingredient search quests, Aku will be able to sell you three new potions. The Silent Step Potion will allow you to move silently.
The Low Visibility Potion reduces the radius of enemy detection by half.
And the third potion is the most important. With its help, you will be able to seduce your companion.

Seducing a companion is a separate mechanic.
If you have a seduction potion in your inventory, you can offer to make love to a freed companion.
Seven animated videos were created for this mechanic.
This action removes the negative effect of sex with a goblin.

v0.0.4

In this version, I added a goblin girl merchant named Akubisa. She is hiding on the second floor of the castle.

She ran away from home from her father, who wanted to marry her off despite her desire to study alchemy.

You can buy simple potions from her. Prices appear next to the images of items in the trade menu. You can sell her anything you don't need.

Trading with her appears after selecting a specific option in the dialogue.

At this stage, only potions that you can craft yourself are available. But in the future, we plan to add a quest line for Akubise, after which she will learn how to make unique potions.

A hint about this character's appearance comes up in a conversation with Darcy after completing her quest line.

v0.0.3

This update adds a quest line for Darcy, the first character chained in chains. Now, during the first dialogue with her, an option marked as a quest appears. By selecting this option, you will start this chain of quests.

There is also a request for advice option in the dialogues. Each quest will have its own advice related to the current quest.

The purpose of this quest chain is to familiarize the player with the basic mechanics. For example, in the first quest, Darcy asks Mia to get her some food. This lets the player know that they can find ready-made food in places with loot.

In the next quest, you will need to prepare food from ingredients. This is important because prepared food is more filling.

Next, the player learns about another important mechanic: traps. There are quite a few enemies on the map, which makes exploring the location difficult. Using traps can significantly reduce their number. They can also save you if you are already being chased.

You are immediately offered to use this mechanism to understand how it all works in practice.

The next quest will be to find the key. This is important information, as there are many locked chests and doors on the map. And this is a necessary step before you can start crafting potions, as the cauldron used for crafting is located in a locked area.

After successfully completing the quest to find the key, the player is directed to find a place with a cauldron for brewing potions. They are then given a quest to create an intelligence potion. Here, the player is introduced to the mechanics of crafting limitations. If the player is not smart enough, they cannot craft powerful potions. However, intelligence can be increased by using certain potions. This way, you can craft everything you need.

Next, the player will be asked to craft a potion of strength. This is because the game characters are weaker than their enemies from the outset. It is very difficult to win in battle. Practically impossible. Therefore, potions of strength must be used before battle. Players are introduced to this logic in the current quest.

And the final quest is to defeat the goblin in battle. Only by defeating the goblin can you obtain the key needed to free Darcy. It is located in a chest with loot in the room where the battle took place.

Once you have obtained the key, you will finally be able to free Darcy.

After her release, a character change option appears in the dialogue with her. The game involves completing various tasks with different characters due to their characteristics. For example, Darcy does not need to drink mind-enhancing potions for crafting. However, she has poorer stealth and is weaker than Mia in combat.

At this stage, the quest lines in the game end. Next, I plan to add a goblin merchant and several new mechanics to the game. This will allow for more diverse quests when adding a new character.
