A delicious new update! Fresh from the oven~
[0.3.1-A] July 21nd 2024
- Fix: Corrected broken outfit morphs
[0.3.0-A] July 20th 2024
- Fix: inverted sliders
- Added: New Clothing Set: Dapper - The male clothing set has been replaced
- Added: New Clothing Set: Dungeon Punk
- Added: New Eyebrow options: Added new eyebrow styles as well as the ability to rotate and reposition eyebrows on the head.
- Added: New Eyelash options: Added new eyelash styles and simplified the creation process to make adding more styles easier.
- Added: New Hair Color Gradient Options: Added the option to add a color gradient to any hair style and options to offset and soften the gradient.
- Added: hair melanin slider in order to correct the issue of color options on UI not matching up with the character hair color. It does what it says on the tin and allows you to decide how much melanin you want added to your hair color.
- Added: New Iris Options
- Added: 3 Scar Options to the skin section
- Added: Several beauty mark options to the skin section including a couple freckle variants.
- Added: Eyeshadow options to the skin section with the ability to specify opacity and color.

- Change: Frame rate capped to 60FPS while in pause menus (inventory, reflection, system, etc.)
[0.2.1-A] June 14th 2024
- Added [Text Scroller System]
- Improvements to general hair quality. Following the shading and aliasing changes of version 0.2.0-A there was a notable drop in hair quality. I've made some tweaks to the modelling process. Hair should now resemble something closer to what we had in version 0.1.0-A and will now respond better to dynamic lighting.
- Added temporary physics to hair_006 (had no physics prior to this update)
- Enabled virtual shadows to fix artifacts and improve shadow quality in both sandbox mode and character creation. This comes with a minor performance overhead but it should not be noticeable to most.
- Corrected scene lighting in the character creator to match 0.1.0-A. The scene is not brighter.
- Fixed bug: [Iris Slider Broke]
- Fixed bug: [Build button "breaks" Manlet Maximus]
- Fixed bug: [Can take both "Curse of a Thousand Maidens" and "Unstable"]
[0.2.0-A] June 8th 2024
- Added: background blur on pause
- Added: The system menu button now pauses the game.
- Change: Main Menu - Minor texture improvements
- Change: Made substantial changes to the player model, lighting and shading methods in order to reduce smear and artifacts and have the face shadows appear more stylized.
- Change: Optimizations and aliasing changes. I've added some new aliasing method settings which should offer a boost in performance on top of the other changes which have been made. The Character Creation screen has also had its complexity reduced.
- Fixed issue where Hair attachments and tail shading did not match the base hair shading.
- Fixed bug: [Luck Stat not appearing in character creator]
- Fixed bug: [Sliders Do Not Reflect Model When Returning to Character Creator from the Menu]
[0.1.0-A] May 17th 2024
- Added [Chuuni-Mania] choice. This is a new curse trait for the Character Creator. It's really a blessing in disguise don't you think? Upon taking this choice you may notice some interesting changes with regards to player Archetype.
- Added choice context. Blessings & Curses now provide some much needed additional context stating what they do.
- I've also added more explicit choice stats. Selected blessings and curses which impact stats will now be taken into consideration when calculating starting stat levels. For the time being this level tally is displayed in the character description window. There will be some re-balancing once the stats come into play in-game. Archetype stats are not currently accounted for.
- Added Prosthesis Leg models for the choice [Limbless].
- Added a display settings toggle for the startup alpha notice message.
- Added "On Click" SFX to Build & Sex Buttons to improve UI responsiveness~
- Changed the games backend native UI scale. Aside from some background UI elements (space background on the main menu and logo spinner), most of the games UI has been updated to the new native scale. If I've done my job right, you shouldn't notice any difference aside from perhaps some smoother UI animations.
- Changed background of the the choice description window to have a slight level of transparency.
- Fixed bug where selecting [Birthday Suit] followed by any build type would result in the player re-equipping clothing.
- Fixed bug where [Magical Affinity] would break the blessings list.
- Fixed slider / outfit clipping issues for the new Adventurer clothing set.
- Increased minimum butt size to avoid bad mesh deforms
