4.0 and new DLC released!


Hello everyone! It's been a bit, but it's finally here: the DLC for OoG, Venture Forth! https://vhiel.itch.io/venture-forth

You *will* need to download the new 4.0 update if you wish to play the new DLC content, so please do so!

Additions to the base game in 4.0 include:

-Barrier points are now visible in battle.

-Added a universal random encounter cooldown - now, after a random encounter, there is a minimum of 50 steps before another one will occur. This number may be tweaked in the future.

-Fixed several bugs!

-Changed Initiative passive skill - Now grants an additional action on the first turn of combat.

-Changed the name of skill "Reckless Swing" to "Wild Swing" (to be less confusing next to the passive skill "Reckless") and made it slightly stronger.

-Reduced the amount of accrued tips needed to get a party member back from being a Server.

-Tweaked balance for Magic skills; they generally do slightly less fixed damage and scale much better with Magic Attack now.

-Tweaked balance for Golems; can now equip 5 Enchantments instead of 3 and have slightly better base stats.

-Tweaked balance for Poison; now reduces HP by 3% of max each turn instead of 5%, but lasts for 3-6 turns instead of 2-6.

-Tweaked balance for Asura Frames; they now reduce the puppet's HP and AGI by 50% each while equipped.

-Tweaked balance for Yureigiri skill; it now reduces Nuan to 1 HP instead of KOing her.

-Many, many other things that I've forgotten about or didn't feel the need to put here.


Thank you for your patience and I hope you give Venture Forth a try!

If the update breaks saved game files, then please allow people to decline the update and complete games in progress.  One way to do this on Steam is to make the old version into a "beta" version of the game that players can optionally opt into, and then you can leave an update message explaining how to do so and letting players switch to the new version when they're ready.  Having a surprise update kill all saved games in a single-player game is a rather nasty thing to do to your players.

I am sorry things work out this way but sadly RPG Maker is extremely non-save-friendly as an engine. I will be doing the beta version option on Steam, however, and this new download can be done without overwriting the old game files, so there should be no problems.

will this update and dlc be added to steam?

Also have the same question.

Their twitter indicates yes. It's just delayed due to valve, which is an issue a lot of devs face.

Sorry for the late reply! It may be a few more business days before Valve approves the game, there's some more details here: https://vhiel.itch.io/venture-forth/devlog/723543/odyssey-of-gianna-venture-fort...
