We're back with another big release! This one adds a lot of new content. In fact, it's a new record for the amount of content we've added in one month. Working with our paid writing staff has been paying off :)

There's over 125,000 new words in this release, spread out in a few areas from reworks, expansions, to totally new story. That's two light novels. Just for context (and not to brag), this is the kind of speed you only find in web novels with prolific authors, certainly not anything you'd find in a game.

But there's more to this release than just words! I've also finished off the new paper doll. Every single style of clothing is represented, even shoes. So you can have fun playing with that. Beyond the paper doll, you can now view how a garment will look on the paper doll while you're shopping at a store!

I started working on more sleep stuff, for all-night fun with stimulants and such, but it really felt like we needed to revisit things with the fatigue system in addition to just adding new drugs and an ongoing effect system. Looking at the amount of time remaining before release, and the high likelihood of buggery, I decided to postpone it until 1.56.

We're all happy that we can keep making lewd stuff for you. Thank you so much for making it possible. We hope you enjoy this release!

Improvements and Fixes.

• Added a log of notifications (pop ups in the top right of the screen), so you can review them if missed.
  • Located with the logs for mental status changes in the character status menu.
• Fixed an issue where the screen wouldn't "scroll up" automatically when moving to a new passage.
• Yeti mode added in the settings. This disables negative attractiveness values caused by body hair.
• Some fixes/removal of things related to the sleep system.
  • IT IS STILL RECOMMENDED THAT YOU SLEEP AS NORMAL. There are known issues with staying up all night, even if there are less than before. In particular, the game schedule, which controls when dates/work shifts/school classes/etc. are supposed to occur.
• Hucow pregnancy transformation improved and bug fixed.
  • This is the transformation that occurs after a hucow gets pregnant, primarily additional udder growth.
  • The transformation is triggered by pregnancy. It is no longer extended if already ongoing by a new pregnancy (such as with twin wombs), as this didn't have the desired effect and reduced total growth.
    • Getting pregnant while already undergoing the hucow pregnancy growth from a prior pregnancy will have no effect.
      • If you want to "tit-max", wait to get pregnant in any other wombs until the transformation is over (18 days from implantation), so the transformation will trigger again.
  • The benefits of the transformation are now determined by the number of times it has occurred, and not by the number of pregnancies the PC has had.
    • Pregnancies before becoming a hucow, and new pregnancies that occur while already getting pregnancy growth are not counted.
  • Duration of the active effects increased to two weeks from 8 days. There is a 4 day window where nothing happens after implantation, once your body's hormones get strong enough, it triggers the hucow growth phase.
    • This growth continues no matter how fast you give birth, so nothing is lost if you have a very short gestation.
  • The base amount of growth still depends on which 'hucow pregnancy' it is for your character. The first is still 3200cc, but the rate that it declines with subsequent pregnancies has been decreased and smoothed, with a larger minimum value at 12+ pregnancies.
    • Note that growth amount is also affected by your udder growth potential, ranging from from -30% to +30%. The expected growth amount is something your character comments on in the transformative text when growth starts.
• Some fixes to the appearance of some shopping pages at gestique, that could cause advert image mis-size depending on screen aspect ratio.
• Fixed a bug with a hucow job event, where a whole bunch of autonomy could be lost when it was supposed to be gained...
• Other things I can't remember, of course.

Expanded and Revised "Deliberate Start"

• This refers to the optional male prolog route where the player doesn't get into the machine and is instead slowly transformed.
• Several choices and "routes" added that let you alter your character's reluctance and impact their corruption.
  • All roads still lead to Rome, Lily is the one actually driving after all... but the scenery on the way is different.
  • I really like how it has turned out so far, so I'll expand on this through the rest of the currently written prolog at some point.
    • Will make the post character creation segment more interesting as well, if the progress is different.
• Multiple choices for revealing your first secret in Lily's secret game.
• Two new first sex acts (in addition to the original blowjob), with multiple branches along the way that change the scene.
• Multiple options when waking up with a hangover the morning after, and what you do with Lily's cock (if anything).
• Some new images and improved art.
• Revised explaination segment, with an option to learn* what's going on or not.
• Reviewed and edited/improved text throughout.
• An option added to return to the start of the first choice segment (first night, morning after) to redo your choices if desired.
  • Will probably do this for new added choice segments in the future as well.

Expanded Paper Doll Art

• The paper doll now has unique art for every single style of clothes that you can purchase, as well as for special items.
  • This represents hundreds of images that can be combined into thousands of combos. Even shoes are represented!
• The paper doll is finished! No more fooling around with it.
  • We'll probably add new art for unique clothes if we add a new unique item.
  • Might add some things down the road with the transformatives expansion as needed.
• There's even a couple new special items for later...
  • 

More Clothing Tweaks

• Made some additional changes to clothing generation.
  • Fixed and tweaked exposure value generation for several garments.
  • Swimsuits: some improvements to style progress and consistency, particularly when it comes to progression from mini to micro to nano.
  • Shoes: styles improved, with some redundant styles (such as those with minor practical differences, such as 'spool heels') converted into more unique styles.
    • saves originating before 1.55 will still show the old names of these styles, and they will appear as the new style on the paper doll. When new clothes are generated (at the start of each week), the new shoes will be correct.
• Clothing Info Updated
  • The details view for an individual garment has been re-styled, with the information presented organized in a more useful way.
  • Unnecessary info for a given garment is hidden, making the display more compact.

Clothing Preview Images

• It's been asked for several times, so now I've added it. When looking at a garment's details (in a shop, or in the wardrobe), there is now an image of how the garment looks on the paper doll.
  • The example image is a closeup of the garment atop a cropped body region, such as the chest when looking at a bra. It's not just a mirror of the paper doll.
  • Garment colors are also represented, as on the paper doll.
  • All clothing images displayed this way assume a female character, because it's a preview not the final result.

More Hucow leftovers — still going strong

• Our talented and productive writers created lots of stories and while we are technically out of the Hucow expansion for a couple of months already there is still plenty of stuff to implement.
• This month it is a 69 scene with Mouse (the ending of the "lost competition" coop event), a pretty hot one imo. imooo. mooo.
• It was a bad pun. I apologize.
• 11 000 characters of content.

  Oldest Profession rewrite.

• Despite being fun the Old Prof job was written years ago and also had many passages of questionable quality courtesy of Anenn.
• So it was completely rewritten, all existing content (90 000 characters)
• And also we have added dozens of new scenes - anal, vaginal, fetish, bdsm, impregnation and risky, all with futa character variants. (81 000 chars)
• There is more which will be added next month!
• The system is massive so there may be errors due to the overhaul. Please report them!
