MAJOR UPDATE! Ver 0.6


After a long wait, the major update for NO-SKIN is finally available, bringing the game to version 0.6

Here’s a list of the main new features:

  • New area: A new area has been added, which includes new enemies, bosses, items, upgrades, etc
  • New permanent upgrades: New upgrades can now be purchased from the moon, and some old upgrades have been update
  • Dream Diary: The first two pages of the diary have been updated. NOTE: Only the first two recollections, Mary and Rugs, have been updated. The others remain unchanged. This is a kind of teaser for how the other recollections will be developed in the final release
  • QoL improvements: Now you can save your run, along with the ability to disable permanent upgrades, and more

Save files from version 0.5 will not be compatible with 0.6. The way permanent upgrades work has changed, and overall, the progression is different.

This will likely be the last major update before the final release. This doesn’t mean the final version is just around the corner, but rather that I’ll now be focusing on developing version 1.0 without further interruptions so it can be released as soon as possible.

This version is much more experimental than 0.5, so feel free to report bugs or leave your feedback.

BUG REPORT

first of all, i absolutely love this game!! i had completed v04, and i was aiming to do the same thing with v06. however, as i launched the game today all my data was deleted for seemingly no reason. i had just unlocked Root the last time i played. is there something i can do to save this lost data?

Here's an answer I gave to a similar question: "Previous saves are intentionally not compatible with version 0.6, as it has a different progression that would be "spoiled" by having completed save files. If you really want to use your old saves in 0.6, you can copy the contents of the "NO_SKIN_ver04" folder(located in C:/Users/<User Name>/AppData/Local/) into the "NO_SKIN_ver06" folder(in the same location)"

Sorry, I must have expressed myself poorly, English is not my native language. What I meant is that when v06 came out I had seen the answer you quoted me, so I did indeed start all over again. I played several games on v06 until today when I opened the game, it started with the intro cinematic, and all my data was gone. I imagine that this kind of problem/bug is not your priority to fix but I still thought it was important to report it :) Anyways, i'll just play again from the start, it's not that much of a bother.

Wishing you the best of luck on the developpement, take all the time you need! i'm so excited to see the final game come out!

Sorry to hear that! If you had to start over, it seems like the save file got deleted, though I'm not sure what could have caused it. Thanks for reporting it, and I’m really sorry you had to start again from beginning


MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD!!!

I was playing as Luna and decided to see what would happen if I used the snake scales item to get beyond 100% skin, I Didn't think it would work but it did ,then NoEye-Soft appeared told me that I shouldn't be here and started shooting at me with I think a gun, so I start trying to kill NoEye-Soft, win, and now I think I'm in purgatory because I'm at 110% skin and every room is default location and every event is default event, never the less the journey must continue, I will continue into purgatory indefinitely, if anything more interesting happens ill write another comment .

also NoEye-Soft if you see this I'm sorry for killing you please le me out of purgatory.

Alright so I managed to get to about 170% skin before a boss called Her appeared she had around 50 health, used the bleeding debuff , and look like what I think was a ton of Mary sprites overlaid and glitched together, after beating Her it sent me back to the main menu and unlocked the final dream diary, which is Noire's, now I've never collected the dream diaries before so if this is something new please tell me and ill post it in another comment.

Root is associated with the Deer man, try to approach him while playing as Root, go with the flow and you should be fine.

[ SPOILED ] [EDIT]

So, with this update, what I discovered so far is:

1. You can recruit up to 2 companions, and their turn acts separately. 

2. Root's nerf is making her have to rely on luck (too much luck) in the early game. 

2.1 Root's Deer Man boss are ridiculously weak compared to the previous giga-chad Deer Man from Ver0.5.

3. The Moon upgrades are useful! Especially the Corruption, you can farm tons of basic items! This makes the game more Rogue-lite (it makes the game easier). 

4. Luna is pretty broken, as she can break the game mechanics (not actually break, but developers intended, I guess).  With Luna, I discovered that our maximum HP is 45 ( permanent+non-permanent). 

5. After you reset with Luna's axe, your ability to Talk and Trade is carrying over, but most of zone 1 and zone 2 enemies don't have special dialogue when the player tries to talk or trade (in zone 2) to them. I suggest adding some. 

6. Luna's axe can make you fight the zone bosses again, but weirdly, the NoEye-Soft boss will not appear again with this method, and you just go straight to the default_enemy zone. 

7. The maximum number of items in your inventory seems to be unlimited; this affects the QoL when players try to find some duplicate items to use multiple at once in a turn (especially after you pick the "Miracle"). 

8. Hence the 7th, Ver0.6 featured the importance of order of items in your inventory and mechanic that involves around non-permanent HP. I love this!

 9. The Four Crimson Creature is interesting! I believe not everyone will discover this but still, impressive! 

When does this feature that allows to fight the crimson creatures is added? This seems to exist around ver 0.4

Thank you for your detailed feedback!
