He's smiling because I managed to meet my deadline.
Bug fixes:
- Hide in shadows could screw-up. It happens rarely and I *think* it's fixed. Hard to test. If a bull still ignores you after you're visible again, please post!
- Bad loot in the 'barracks' would crash the thing.
Not yet fixed:
- If you have anything for the apothecary and you haven't been there yet, you have to exit and enter the room to use them.
- The goat guarding the three levers still is in the wrong layer and overshoots the door when returning.
NOTE: The right mouse button thing was driving me crazy so it's out. Everything is left mouse button again. That might create problems while fighting, I'll find other solutions.
The goats need work. They don't fight well, and it's no fun. They also don't use doors well. I want to make it so you fight them much less or defeat them easily. They are a bit easier now, and food can be found in the guarded chest all the way to the left in the mines. At present, you can lose those guys just by running around. Alternate dialog is needed if you get there before you have Luna, and I keep forgetting.
The apothecary is done. You can kill the player nine distinct ways, if that's what floats your boat. Or you can find the clues, which are all in the form of one-line poems. Five of these can be found, four are not yet there. To find them, you must go to places you've been many times, so I must do a bit of spoiling: run the player past the points shown in the bottom two pics above a few times. Related items are in the alchemist's chambers and near the spot in the bottom left picture above.
Thank you my patrons. Enjoy and may Pervy do things to you.

Thank you for the bug report! It might get you past this if you a go a few flights down the stairs and back up, if not then you must go back to the save point. Hopefully this is not a show-stopper. Please tell me your thoughts on the goats! I don't get a lot of feedback. Anything is fine. UPDATE: If you are holding the phial in your hand then you can't click on anything except the skull, even though all the containers are shining. Select your hand in the lower left corner of the screen to put it away and you should be good. I'll see if I can make that work better.

2023-10-01 10:15:21 +0000 UTCI think I've found a bug. I checked the apothecary and got the initial scene before meeting an unfortunate demise with one of the potions. Before going back to the apothecary I checked the room with the old man and picked up the strange phial. When I returned to the apothecary I didn't get the scene with the talking skull and wasn't able to interact with anything. I think it's *trying* to play the scene because I get the "Choose!" "Choooose!" messages and I'm unable to open the ESC menu, but the scene never plays. The only difference that I can see is that the strange phial is in my inventory. I also have some thoughts on the goats but I'm not sure if/what sort of feedback you're looking for on them at the moment.
