Release Date: Patch 1.4.0
🕑 Added 2020-08-03 19:46:03 +0000 UTCHola everyone!
Luciana and I have been working hard on patch 1.4.0, our 'Gender Patch'. Although this patch was extremely focused on one main aspect -- adding the male and female genders to the game -- it has been probably the largest update we've ever done. Every line of text needed to be re-read, evaluated, and adjusted to suit our new system. It's been a lot of work, but we're almost there!
Patch 1.4.0 will be released to our Patreon backers on Friday, August 14th. As always this will be an early preview build, so while we hope to squash as many bugs as possible between now and release, there may still be a few areas where the new genders aren't quite firing correctly. This makes public release for the patch August 28th, when we will release the new content to all players.
So what's in the patch?
Well, obviously: new genders! You can now choose to begin your game as either completely male, completely female, or the 'original' succubus form, and play that way from the beginning. For those with existing games, Lazren will teach you the secrets of changing sex when you meet her again in Chapter 2... presuming you passed your review! Once you reach Chapter 2, you will be able to freely adjust both your physical sex and your coloration to your liking. Take a look in the mirror -- you might like what you see.
All existing scenes and conversations have been tweaked (some lightly, and some significantly) to show off all three player genders. Some are essentially the same scene with an eye toward not mentioning anatomy you don't possess, others diverge into somewhat different acts or attitudes, and JJ features a brand new scene for Dominant Females only. We plan on introducing more unique gender scenes in future updates now that we have the coding in place.
Speaking of Chapter 2: you can now skip directly to Chapter 2, should you so choose to. Taking the 'shortcut' has some advantages (like, not having to play through content you've already seen before), but it also comes with some limitations. You can choose to build two locations and transform two people: the bare minimum to meet Lazren's requirements. Playing the game through 'the right way' might get you more than that, but this IS a shortcut!
Reading through everything also gave us an excuse to do some pretty significant editing to existing content. We found and corrected over 150 typos, a handful of genuine bugs, and did some basic cleanup in various areas. Hopefully this will result in a smooth, better experience for all of our existing work.
Future Plans
In terms of future plans, Patch 1.5.0 should be a smaller, quicker patch that focuses on Petra's ultimate fate in Paradise Heights, and will feature her gaining two full transformation options (Siren and Drow). On August 31st we'll also be putting up our next content poll for patch 1.6.0 after Petra, so be sure to look for that after our public release of this patch.
As always, we can't emphasize enough how much we appreciate your backing for our little project. We've been growing and growing, and we hope you'll continue to join us in this endeavor for a long time to come.
Happy Hunting!
Cambion and Luciana
