I promised to write to you again before the next update comes out. I can now say for sure that the official release will be in a few days, on Tuesday, May 27th. As usual, everyone with level 4 or higher will get access to it a few days earlier.
I'm in the final stage of working on the new chapter. Once again, it's a bit longer than planned, so it contains a lot of action and a nice story. I'm pretty sure you'll like it.
A brief overview of all the new features in the upcoming v0.17:
- The girls receive additional accessories for their hair (ribbon, exotic flower and a simple hairband). This is a further step towards greater individualization of the girls.
- There is a new, relatively long story chapter (again with both girls) with the title "variety is key".
- the girls have got completely new and much more detailed genitals (vaginas and assholes). They can be fully animated and are in the new animations for the new chapter and also in existing animations.
- Revised and improved player movement. The player's movement has been completely reworked to achieve a much higher quality, making it much more fun to move through the game world.
- Added footstep sounds. Depending on the surface you are moving on, there are now different footstep noises, which in my opinion significantly increase immersion.
- Added an autorun-mode. This means you no longer have to press a key to run faster. Instead, you can now press the “Run” button to walk slower. This function can be activated / deactivated in the options menu.
- You can now use the interaction key (default “E”) to advance in dialogs or story chapters instead of always having to click on the "continue" button. This allows your eyes to focus on much more important things!
- You can now deactivate the camera shake / wobbling that appears in dialogs and parts of chapters in the options menu.
- Last but not least, I was able to fix some bugs that had been there for a while, but which I had not been able to reproduce and fix until now. Now they are finally fixed!
If you want even more detailed info about what's coming with the next update, you can also read the previous posts since the last release of v0.16.
I'm looking forward to the next release because it means that this project is taking another step forward!
