Millhaven

v0.2.4 - The Audio. Elder Tanaka. Rent day. (2026-05-14) The Audio Pass . Background music across the whole game. Location themes. Elder Tanaka Arrangement System . Tanaka offers "discreet arrangements" to settle debts. Send a girl down to the basement for a slot to wipe rent. What happened there is not what Tanaka tells you it was. Tanaka-accompanied scenes . Tanaka physically present in every arrangement animation. 28 variants across 20 combos. 8 new static Tanaka CGs. Corruption-tier clothing in basement scenes Daily Rent . Tanaka visits every morning to collect. Pay in gold, roll into debt, or settle another way. Drift and Peep Overhaul . Cadence-based drift, slot-aware phases. Drift can no longer be silently cancelled by a same-slot event. New fixtures: procedural plank window at the backstreets, tent with shadow-puppet silhouettes at the forest edge. 5-act story clock rewritten . Day / affection / corruption thresholds rebalanced. Late-act progression no longer a sprint. First post-arrival event is now guaranteed to be a rival event so you actually learn the loop Home activity polish . Cuckold and bought-back animations render in the open at Home. Aftermath selfies match her live state. Stage DMs fire toasts. Clicking a busy girl routes to scene click-through, not talk/gift/date Bug round across v0.2.2 / v0.2.3 / v0.2.4 . Rival arrival state machine, DisplayMode refactor, tutorial soft-lock fix, departure popup re-open fix, chip overlay clip fix, plus 9 playtest bugs from the 04-20 session V0.1.2-v0.1.4: see itch Fixes. v0.1.1 (2026-04-19) Conversation System - T alk to the girls properly. 32 topics across both characters, ~1,240 dialogue lines, 275 player choice options. 33 Knowledge keys to discover (where she's from, kinks, who took her virginity, secret habits). Later topics unlock as you learn things. 5 archetype choices per beat (Sweet / Lewd / Protective / Enabling / Dismissive) with real stat effects Confrontation Content (~104 scenes) . Catch her in the act and confront her about the exact sex act. 10 activities covered (flirting through creampie). Two paths cleanly separated: Stranger = hotwife (drives corruption and arousal), Rival = cuckold (drives rival affection and corruption). Corruption-tier keyed: same act has different scripts for Pure / Curious / Willing / Corrupted. Dating and casual variants for every scene. ~1,020 branching player responses total Breakup System . 37 confrontation choices can trigger a breakup. Post-breakup conversations per corruption tier. Reconciliation option available Endings That Don't End . Weddings play at the moment of marriage, then the game returns to gameplay. Retire when you want to see the epilogue. Only ONE girl can be married, the other girl's story continues independently. MC's House is a new location with per-route backgrounds (love / hotwife / cuckold / bought-back) Hotwife Daily Loop . She texts proposing acts. Agreed, and she walks to her permanent location (Yuki at Backstreets glory-hole shed, Mia at Traveler's Inn private room). Gold rewards per act. Aftermath texts and selfies Cuckold At-Home Visits . Rival visits your house. Join, allow, or decline Corruption Ending rework . If corruption peaks, the ending plays in two parts. First part: discovery. Second part: she roams Millhaven with stranger animations while her affection toward you decays daily. Let it hit zero and she's lost to the basement for good. Act in time and you can try to save her The Basement - Hidden Recovery Path . Buy her back from Elder Tanaka at the Traveler's Inn. 4 dialogue choices (shout / scheme / accept / insult). Recovery is fragile: each visitor proposal is a Degrade / Accept / Reject test. Corruption climbs back to the top and she relapses, gone again. Second buyback available if you can afford the escalating price Witness Her Ending . Players who didn't save her can view the corrupted epilogue via Tanaka at the inn ("Customers pay coin for a peek. You get the tour free.") Peephole Viewport . Mouse-following hole over a peek background with a looping character animation underneath. Yuki = circular glory-hole with warm wood-grain edge. Mia = full-height vertical door slit tracking mouse-X. Basement hatch = both girls side-by-side through one shared peek. Clickable door sprites at Backstreets (Yuki) and Traveler's Inn (Mia) during hotwife activities Village Lore - 5 Named NPCs . Elder Tanaka (village leader and MC's guardian, now with a hidden secret). Goro (friendly innkeeper who argues about coffee with Mia). Koji (fabric stall vendor at Market Square). Taro (MC's old school bully, grown up). The Hayashi family (father and son running a "massage therapist" scam at the forest edge). Named NPCs referenced consistently across events, calls, chat, and conversations Per-body-part virginity tracking . Pussy and anal track who took her first (MC / rival / stranger). Shown on the Photos tab. Conversations react to it Arc chip menus replace popup menus. Clicking a girl arcs pill-shaped chips above her head (Talk / Gift / Activities / Propose / Retire) with pulsing borders and ease-out animation. Disabled actions show lock hints ("Requires 40 affection") Choice Hints setting .
