Fixes: Minor translation issues Fixed an error with Dragon lady scene in Nora's gallery Fixed an issue with Juno where you get the old store background after entering the maid event Nora's position on the screen being weird in some scenes got fixed Known issues: You might notice that some animations have desynced sound effects. This is because we need to implement the audio using animation controllers, but we've run out of time to build the system as we intended. We'll leave it like this for now and push an update in a few weeks v0.9.0 A good chunk of Nora’s progression! New chapter with Lily Nora’s main scenes for this new update are now animated with Live2D. Important changes: Nora’s IDLE got a little visual rework. She won’t be moving her arms anymore, but now her sprites are fully rendered! Fixes: Minor translation issues v0.8.2 Complete rework about Roxanne’s story. Forget about the zoo walking old story, that stuff got completely deleted and reworked Huge chapter with Roxanne. Keep in mind that in order to continue Roxanne’s story you’ll need to at least: Complete Prometheus story with any of the ending, AND, have at least 2 of affection with her. After doing this, go to the zoo at night and talk with her using “Can we talk?” option New character: Magda, Roxanne’s mother. Brief interaction with her in new’s Roxanne’s chapter!

From now On, characters won’t move their arms anymore! We are preparing the system to implement the skin-change menu! Fixes: Minor translation issues Known issues: Wait… wasn’t it animated?? ::::::::: An unexpected problem came across when we were doing character IDLE animations; apparently, in order for them to work properly (with different emotion faces and mouths and that) we need to create very complex systems for each character so it can do lip sync stuff. At the end we turned back to the classic static IDLE, we won’t be animating character IDLEs anymore, instead of this, we’ll focus into animating the sexual scenes. Maybe in the future we’ll think about creating this complex systems for each character, but for now it is not viable. Sorry about this!!! v0.7.1 What's new New character: Juno! Is waiting for you near Nora’s Shop! A day of progression with Lily New chapter with Mara! “There’s a stalker in the park”. In order to advance, you’ll need to play all the exercises at least once!

During an impregnation scene you’ll play a minigame that will define if the gall is impregnated or not! We’ll make it bigger to add multiple offsprings and stuff like that in the future! Naninovel engine got updated to its most stable version. “Where are my hands????” Some of you will notice that our characters will gradually start to stop moving their arms. We are saving resources and time on these features to invest it solely in facial expressions, clothing, and bodies. This is because we will soon begin to implement an immense surprise, one that starts with 'Live' and ends with '2D Cubism'. Fixes: Fixed a narrative issue involving the bad ending of Alexa. Ye, it was not a bug, it was a problem in the dialogs. They are now different for this ending and will match independently of with final scene you got! Some problems with translation Fixed a wrong guide message in the 6th day of Lily! Known issues: - Due to the update of naninovel engine, sadly, old savefiles could not work anymore. This is more like a warning, as we was forced to delete all of them due to the update guide. For android build be carefull as the new build could delete your old savefiles!! v0.6.1 - A day of progression in Lily's story (At this point, please read the Guide recommendations carefully, you'll understand when you reach the end of this new chapter with her) - A day of progression with Ashe - 4 Days of progression with Alexa and the first entry to one of her definitive endings. - New creature in the bestiary: Mnemorvorax... or Prometheus, if you're fond of him. Important changes - Prometheus has the longest story fragment so far in the bestiary, his origins and nature were changed a bit, so his in-game dialogues were adjusted and some even changed. - An important dialogue was changed in the main story during the limousine scene with Lina. This dialogue references that the host's memories of MC were indeed "erased" and his identity too, becoming an ordinary citizen. -We added the option to make Rollback in the game, you can do this using the scroll wheel on the mouse on pc. ¡CAREFULL! This option may create bugs if it is used on the minigames or specific places like the gallery. So we'll keep this new feature under strict surveillance Fixes - On Lily's last day in the previous version, a variable wasn't adjusted correctly, causing her story to reset. This has been resolved for this version. - Some issues with affection variables were adjusted. - Some translation issues were adjusted. v0.5 What’s new -Lily’s story progression! -Ashe’s story progression! -Main story progression! -Aurora, and Raven are now available at the playground at the afternoon (this content is only available in the Patreon build for now)! -There’s a new creature at the SSIO research database, and some new entries for the older creatures! -The graveyard is now accessible (No new characters here, for now)!

Keep in mind that the server rules still apply in these channels, avoid being disintegrated for bad behavior! A "skip" button was added to Nora's minigames. Now when you finish you can press it to make the time counter drop to 0 immediately. Fixes An imposter dialogue line that said "no more content" in the CG event when losing the shop cleaning minigame was removed, this was wrong, since there were still more scenes ahead. Fixed an error with Nora's story variables that will cause her father to never appear in the story progression IMPORTANT: Fixed an old error that will cause the game to crash when you load a a save-file when you were playing from a save file created in an older version of the game. This error was also responsible for crashing the game when you created a new save-file from this play-through v0.3 Prometheus story got finished. just… be careful if you play with headphones at high volume… Lily’s story progression Ashe’s story progression More scenes in the gallery! v0.2.3 We fixed a critical error in Nora's story that caused the game to crash More translation fixes Alpha 0.2.2 public build!!

Features: This new gallery will allow you to see all the content that has appeared in the game so far; you can rewatch scenes or “sprite bubbles” (sprite bubbles are sprites that doesn’t have any variation), you can also see the characters IDLES and change their cloths! To celebrate this new feature, we created an option in Alexa’s last day (the one that repeats in an infinite loop after you finish her story) that will allow you to restart her story AND also restart the purple demon interactions! For the other characters, don’t worry, you’ll only need to go and watch their final chapters to unlock the content of the previous stages (this is a little fix as they don’t really have that much content for now). Keep in mind some scenes need to be completed fully to unlock the Gallery CG! The patreon version of the game also includes an exclusive feature that will unlock Everything (Except the new content) without the need to replay the scenes! v0.1.1 Alpha What’s new -Main story progression event.

What’s coming next? So, as many of you know already, the demo version 0.2 (The second release we did after appearing for the first time on itch.io ) was pretty much horrible, and the first release put so much focus into the art… but not into the story. To be honest, we didn’t worry to much about narrative in those times, but now the things are different. What we want to do for the next update, is to fix all the content that was poorly implemented in demo V0.2, and mix the new narrative nexus and all the feedback that we have received from all of you into the narrative of the Demo V0.1. So, for the Alpha V 0.2, we won’t be putting new content into the game (Except for any character pack that must be implemented), but we will do a lot of adjustments to Alexa and Nora’s story, and overall the whole game. This adjustments will include: -Redoing the gallery -Reworking dialogs from Demo V0.2 downwards -Redrawing all the scenes with a canine… thing -Fixing the minigames interaction system and adding a skip button -Reworking Nora’s story -Visual adjustment on the city map to make it less green and more… yeah, city like jeje -Thinking in some way to optimize the game, as it’s growing dangerously big in MB v0.3.1 Demo What's new? Heavy progress in Roxanne's story. Narrative nexus rework (Main story) Intro rework (New information is available on the intro, we suggest you all to play it again to not miss very important details of the story!!) Minor changes in some dialogs, mainly in the "Purple demon" scene. Bug Fixes: Fixed an error that causes the game to freezes if you didn't have the "Weird potion" in your inventory in a certain dialog with roxane. Minor translation fixes v0.2.2 Demo Alexa's story progression: Alexa's story will continue in this update, to continue with her simply visit the office every day in the morning as ussual Mara's story Progression: Mara received a rework in her system. Now you can choice between extreme exercise, simple exercise, resistance warm up, and simple stretching.
