So the 0.3.1 public version is going to be released tomorrow, and I've already got heavily into writing for 0.4. It's about 20% completed, give or take. I really don't know how many scenes this one is going to have. With all the options and adjustments to be made with a somewhat non-linear story, it is starting to get really messy determining what actually is a "scene" and where they begin and end.

To give you a sneak peek, and an example, you will be able to visit Velvet Desires (the bordello visited in the last version) in 0.4 and begin that little side-area, but what starts as maybe three separate "scenes", and adding in the sandbox for repeated visits, it has quickly ballooned to nearly fifteen different encounters that forward the story. But in the progress section of Discord and in the game itself, it will count only as three.

Also of note, it will be mentioned in the game, but so all of you know: the dark-haired girl in the bordello/brothel is actually a trap. There won't be an option to select her gender. If you don't want the trap content, don't choose her. It doesn't affect the story.

The plan for NSFW content in 0.4 is... big. I'm looking forward to writing and creating the images, but I'm also a little concerned. I'm still very new to working on the images and doing animations, and now that we're going to get into threesomes... (oh, did I say that outloud?)

At least three new female characters are going to be appearing in 0.4, along with some content for all those already in the game. I think two of them will appear in some lewd scenes, though a lot of it really depends on the player and the choices they've made in previous versions and choices they will make in 0.4.

I'm still thinking it's going to be a near end-of-year update. With winter coming, there will be more time for me to devote to ECA, but even if I do, I want to spend that time making 0.4 a good, deep update.

Hope you have a good weekend.
