Release 0.1.3 (Patreon)

Hey everyone,

I pushed a new build on itch (https://abdlsparrow.itch.io/the-pacifier-project-minor-releases/patreon-access ). It's not as polished as I wanted it to be, so if you encounter a bug, don't hesitate to let me know.

Here's the changelog :

General

- New mechanism : maturity level. You can gain maturity by chosing adult-oriented choice, like going to a toilet before soiling yourself. On the other hand, you will lose maturity if you choose a more childish path. Maturity can influence which side-quest you have access too and some dialog options. 

- In addition to your state, some NPC can also react to your maturity level.
