Hey guys, some of you might not noticed when I was talking about delays, but I did slip a “Release Candidate” build for backers on the sly in my previous post. Well, we’ve beaten off (hah) some of the most egregious bugs and turned out a new build to continue to play with. Note that there are still lots of bugs with the recent combat system refactor, so fights may crash, look weird, or otherwise slit their own wrists.

Oh, and I slipped in another wall of content for some of the older characters in the game. Dr. Badger can ask you to bimbofy Penny for her. It’s pretty great if you like that stuff. But don’t fret – if you hate the badger, you can tip off Penny and start a path to turn the tables. Now I just have to get into coding the “turning tables” stuff.

Oh, and I don’t have a hard date on when the free build will be available. The raw .SWF builds will hit Patreon and TaintedSpace.com in a bit. I’m still holding off on mobile builds till we get something a bit more functional – and the play link on TaintedSpace.com will go to an older, more stable build still. You have to cherry pick from the downloads menu.

0.6.25 RC3 Changelog:

• Dr. Badger can offer you a job, resulting in a whole new set of interactions with Penny!
• Penny has two new bust icons, used for very altered Pennys – one from Adjatha and the other created from a Wolfy-Nail commission.
• Fixes to “Fall of the Phoenix” fights.
• Tease should work now.
• Fixed some Stun effects not displaying icons.
• Improved combat display
• Changes and tweaks to status effect icon display.
• No more excess spaces in cockvine fights.
• Fixed some issues in left sidebar display in combat.
• Fixed a crash in SingleCombatAttacks
• Some other misc fixes.

Pictured is the new Wetraxxel bust from Shou – which she posted just before I started putting this patch together. It’ll be in the official 0.6.25 release later in the week (hopefully).

Freebie build will fall early January.

0.6.24 Changelog:

• Added Dr. Anzhela to Kressia, a red myr doctor written by JimThermic.
• It’s now possible to run into Kaede outside of “Iced Teats” on New Texas (with her lover, Cass), by Savin.

It doesn’t seem like much to read, but that’s a solid chunk of content (50ish pages, if I had to guess). Next on the coding block is Zeikfried’s educator for the Gildenmere Thollum, then who knows!~

Looks like ComfyCushion drew Aliss getting all dressed up for the holidays!

Freebie build ETA: Early January

0.6.23 Changelog:

• The next step in Emmy’s quest is now functional. To get it going, do something sexy with her, then wait 72 hours for an email. Depending on what you bring her (and your aim and physique stats), she’ll give you a different weapon as a reward.
• Emmy also has three new sexy-times scenes unlocked once you progress her quest.
• You can now enter cheats in the custom input menu for V-Ko. This is pretty placeholder for now, and notifications about typing them in correctly won’t show till after you back out of V-Ko’s menu, but it’ll work for Android/iOS players.
• Jacques00 added a neat event for selling the probe on Mhen’ga.
• Jacques00 deployed a literal raft of bug-fixes.
• A new Shou bust was added.

Things will slow a bit over the holidays due to necessary time with family, but I have no plans for any actual vacation. There’s just one small step left to Emmy’s quest to do after this that’ll cost the PC a fair few credits (and unlock a few more sexy scenes I have to write). Oh, and I still need to write text for bringing her a gem satchel and code another variation Zeikfried wrote.

I’ll probably look at spending what time I have free over the holidays on chipping into the backlog. Emmy can have a break now that I’ve put some more effort into her. Did you know she’s over 40 pages long now?
