Changelist:

• NEW Major Character / FxM full act - Fleet-Admiral Horveek of the Dragonfire Fleet - A Skiirborn admiral who is second highest ranked member in the Dragonfire Fleet. You’ll be meeting him a few times along the story, and characters with vagina can get a bit deeper meeting the first time too!
• NEW Major Character - Advisor Selis, a regal ex-captain of The Unnamed.
• NEW Characters - A duo of short stocky cute kizan guards with Horveek.
• NEW Character - Ribbons, a black market coin vendor - Replaces temporary function from Myghan as the Guild Drake converter, and offers a few additional ways to complete item related quests.
• NEW Position switcher - You can now switch between top and bottom in acts where it is possible; Generally MxM and FxF acts with crew are compatible. Player in act presentation ghost is colored brighter than the crew member.
• NEW Store stock updating - Vendors now update and refresh their stocks, getting new items for sale, removing old items, and so on. Updating happens at different times making passing of time more important than prior (see next entry).
• NEW Sleeping function - You can now rent a room at The Cotton Ball and sleep there to pass time. The “free bed” in the old shack is gone though, due to sleep actually having a gameplay meaning now. You can re-sleep only after enough time has passed from the last time you slept; It is basically sleep time + 50% to determine when you’re tired enough to sleep. E.g. If you slept to the morning and it was only 4 hours to it, you can’t re-sleep before 6 hours have passed after waking up. Maximum sleep delay is 18 hours.
• NEW Showroom stage rework - Improvements to atmosphere of old stages with lighting, audio, stage naming, and decoration. Showroom stages no longer use generic locations with table prop and instead uses fitting locations within the stages themselves.
• NEW Showroom stages - Inn room, and Cellar mini stages.
• NEW Item hover accessibility rework - Item hover info now displays colors of clothes in writing, and also displays both rarity name and item type in writing. E.g. cloth color: “red shirt”, item type: “piercing”, and rarity: “uncommon”.
• NEW Increased crew size - You can now have 5 crew members to ensure you can keep a higher variety of crew.
• NEW Trash cans - Have a lot of pesky items you just want to get rid of? Donate them to the trash cans! Also people occasionally throw away items, so you might find something new in the trash cans as time goes by.
• A Secret.
• Improved bulge size calculation for pants to increase bulge size.
• Improved camera sensitivity options (in options menu).
• Improved inventory item equipping slot highlighting.
• Improved underwater rendering of the sea when the camera accidentally goes underwater.
• Improved randomization of random acts to minimize repeating and increase selection.
• Improved rotated items positioning on cursor at drag.
• Improved functionality of collars from “decorative” to actual physical item that can be removed or added back with crew.
• Improved performance of jiggly parts like breasts, tails, ears, and penis.
• Improved performance/memory usage of character fur.
• Improved general NPC, animation, and spawner performance optimization.
• Improved prey capture and crew follow handling; New capture will only automatically follow if you don’t have a follower with you.

• Improved ship in the main menu, namely by adding the ship figurehead that was missing.
• Improved character cursor look at the Main Menu.
• Improved usage of bed in Showroom acts.
• Improved readability of main text font (less “damaged” or thin letters).
• Writing improvements to many older NPCs to react to new NPCs, improvements to their opinion and tag checks, and general fixes to spelling.
• Writing fixes internally to Tecius, Girda, Gwenevieve, and Fenry. They will basically rerun their “first meeting” part of the conversation before settling in
• Writing fixes to lizards being referred to as being furred in many places in the conversations.
• Fixed huge breasts defaulting to inverted nipples.

How to play:

• Please see the game main menu for the How to play -section.
• Press F9 to submit feedback and bug reports.

Known issues:

• Camera minimum distance allows you to look inside actors currently.
• Currently there is only one male and one female voice, so if player picks a voice A and prey or NPC has voice A, it can be a bit confusing. Later on we’ll expand options, and have unique voice set for player so there’s never two identical voices overlapping.
• Weapon equip/unequip is a temporary flip only.
• Jiggle effects do not work very well on low framerates.
• Camera may spin or controls may be unresponsive if a controller (or a device that is being considered a controller e.g. an ergonomic mouse) is connected that has a joystick axis at a non-zero position.
• Abnormally low frame rates for systems that meet minimum requirements on Windows may be caused by a missing Visual C++ Redistributable 2017 package. Download the x64 package here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads#section-2, install, restart, and try again.
