I think mutually exclusive quests add replayability and allow balancing. If you could access everything, especially with end-game character, you would completely break balance. Right now, the game is rather tightly balanced, and you can see on CLIVAN what happens when you start adding new areas without restrictions.
You can always play in wizmode without using the special features if you want to do have access to everything at once.

No I don't think they stack unfortunately. They should though. I think that would be cool.
That would be pretty cool. I'd suggest cumulative rather than multiplicative (ie. x2 + x2 = x3, not x4) stacking, though, or stacking two "easy" victories will beat getting only one hard victory.

Sorry about the wait, I'm back and here is the test release. I'd like to hear about any bugs or balance issues.
That Travis auto-release thingy is really great!

to fix
Oops, now it should be working OK.
Also, you should be able to build your own windows build on your personal fork by creating, for example, a release branch, and building "manually" on Travis (i.e. log on and press the button)
or even changing the yaml file to tickle up your own containers on Travis. That's how I drafted the build system without working on the live repository
Any build artifacts will just appear in the red-kangaroo/ivan releases page.

Hm, I was able to trigger a build on Travis for red-kangaroo/ivan branch Aslona_travis_release, it built successfully, but I'm not sure if it created a release. I'll have to see the docs. Thanks about the info.

Aslona
in forum IVAN Development
I more or less finished a new main quest in the kingdom of Aslona, so now I need help with properly testing it. 
Please report any bugs, typos, balance issues or how you brok ethe game (JoKe ), so I can fix that.
Notable change was to stop new quests from always requiring the dev to deal with the encrypted scroll, so now you always need to talk to Petrus first to give him the scroll, and then you can choose to talk to other quest givers for new quest. To activate GC, just talk to Petrus again; talk to the necromancer for TX and to Sir Lancelyn for Aslona quest.
Some notes on Aslona that you might or might not want to discover on your own:
SPOILER ALERT. Click here to see text.
See NEWS for more details on all changes.
fejoa, could I ask you for a Windows build, please, so it can be properly tested by everyone?

* There are multiple dungeons available, so don't be shy to try a different one if you encounter a hard situation/enemy, and come back later.
* Pyramid should probably be done last.
* There are some new, nasty enemies. Don't melee nurphe bats.
* You can sail over worldmap oceans once you accept the Aslona quest. You might need it to find all dungeons.
* For best-scored victory, choose one side of the civil war and give all quest items to that side.
* You can still win even if you anger both the royalists and the rebels.

I wanted to finish Aslona for the Christmas holidays, but I'm a few dialogues short. :/

anything relating to ivan you're too lazy to create a new topic for
in forum Tips, Tricks, and Secrets
Any tips on how to survive the crystal caves? Do I need any specific armor, weapons or items that would be of any help?
Also invisibility is good, because the crystal golems cannot see invisible and you can just run around them.
If you can pray to Nefas, wait until you have a mistress or two and let them handle the majority of the enemies.

Is that random? I only got hexagonal keys, while all the meteoric steel chests had octagonal locks
Yeah, the key is random. Sometimes the streaks of bad luck are incredible.

I'd vote for Sil, too.
You really had some bad luck there, it's sad to see you go after only getting a glimpse at everything the game has to offer.
Thank you for doing this, though.
