Emelia special event.
Around 21,500 words of story.
Around 2,500 lines of scripting.
New feature – messaging system in notebook accessible from the main hub page after Emelia’s new event. Only one set of messages in it currently.
70 sprites and static images of Heidi.

Updated the menu background showreels, replaced some animations, added some new ones and added in some featured in the game.
v0.49c patch
Fixed more issues with some of the other Academy Missions backgrounds breaking.

Fixed issues with some of the Academy Missions backgrounds breaking.
v0.49
Reworked Zara’s sprites and animations from the prologue and Chapter 1.
Reworked Heidi’s sprites and animations from the prologue and Chapter 1.
Reworked a couple of Alice’s new sprites in the prologue, as the facial structure was slightly off.
Reworked, added to and replaced animations from Emelia’s sex scenes in the 2nd Cartographer’s Guild mission and her second character event. There’s still a few more to replace, but the sex scenes are now more dynamic and longer in action.
Reworked all the animations to reduce filesize, knocking about 1gb off the file size since 0.47 came out, despite all the extra sprites and animations that have gone in with this update.
Fixed some spelling issues in the 0.48 content.
Fixed a mission loop bug with Matsuyo’s event.
Fixed some formatting and spelling issues with some of the codex and character screen entries.
v0.48
Added Lilly’s 2nd event.
Added Isabella’s first event.
Added a special event for Matsuyo.
Added 4 new codex entries
Added a trans/futa content toggle to the MC’s character profile sheet as the codex entries contain the first content of this type.
Adjusted the game start to include a question about whether trans/futa content should be enabled or disabled.
Fixed the new, thicker bolded text outline not properly applying to speech.
Adjusted the image quality of most of the game image assets.
Adjusted the image quality of the intro movie assets.
The adjustments have resulted in a reduction in filesize of around 300mb, despite all the new assets from this update going in. I have still to go through and do the same thing with all of the game animations to get the filesize down further.
In terms of stats… it comes in at around 20,000 words.
17 x backgrounds
1 existing background reworked.
5 x sprites of Matsuyo.
2 x animations of Matsuyo
57 x sprites or images of Isabella
29 x animations of Isabella
12 x sprites or images of Alice
6 x animations of Lilly & Alice
28 x sprites or images of Lilly
17 x animations of Lilly (including one 4 minute long scene).
v0.47b
Fixed a bug that would cause Zara’s first event to repeat, rather than to player her second event, preventing progress with the Zara plotline.
v0.47
N/A
v0.42
Spoiler
Fixed a small piece of variable content that wasn’t firing at the end of the academy event when reading the newspaper. It was only displaying the chaos variant, but your reaction to viewing the newspaper should vary depending on what choice you made during the fight in the alley.
Fixed 2 images that weren’t displaying the right versions. I had left in older versions of the assets and they were being displayed instead of the newer ones. Same image, just without some of the manual editing needed to make it consistent.
Fixed a mis-named sound effect that wasn’t playing.
Various spelling fixes.
v0.36
Converted all image assets to lossless webp format which has knocked about 2gb off the file size.
Migrated all character information screens to new format.
Re-wrote most character bios.
Added in video galleries for the MC, Emelia and Alice – these are unlocked at the end of their respective events in this update.
Tidied up some of the stat tracking logic.
Checked all the score/maxscore logic to make sure it fires in the right order and at the right time.
Finished overhauling the end of content segment – it will now take you to the hub screen, the info and patreon screen is now a link in the hub.
v0.3
Added the 2nd Cartographer’s Guild mission.
Fixed a crash related to skipping Isabella’s romance content.
Fixed the max score counter for aberrant gnosis, Emelia, Lilly and Sarah being too high.
Added a correction in to make sure that the max score is set correctly for existing saves.
Updated the character galleries – added in character sheets and galleries for Saga, Felsia, Xanthe and Kaisa. These will unlock once you complete the missions that you encounter them in game. I also adjusted the position of the buttons to access character sheets for non-romanceable characters to the bottom row.
For these characters I created a new version of the character sheet, one that can I can easily update to add in lore and info, whereas previously the character sheets were all fixed images that I could not really update unless I edited and replaced the image. All the old characters are using the old format still, I intend to migrate them for 0.35.
Added in an explanation of the alignment system to the codex screen.
Fixed a few spelling and grammar errors.
The update stats are:
Approx 12500 words of story.
Approx 2200 lines of scripting.
56 sprites, 1 fixed image and 42 animations (approx 11.5 minutes) of Emelia added.
10 sprites and 1 animation of the player (there are several fixed images that he is also shown in).
10 sprites and 3 fixed images of Kaisa.
8 sprites and 2 animations of Xanthe.
11 sprites, 14 fixed images and 4 animations of minor characters.
25 backgrounds and 4 animated backgrounds
v0.28
All versions:
Corrected an error introduced with the option to skip Isabella’s sex scene in Chapter 1.
Corrected a missing dialogue tag in one of the new scenes.
Improved the transition flow in Emelia’s camp scene in the first Cartographer’s Guild mission.
Mobile Version:
I know I said I wasn’t going to support the mobile version, but I took advantage of having it available to play through whilst I was away. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it all worked fine and looked really good on the small screen. So, whilst it isn’t a main version, I did want to make some improvements. The first of which is to remove the text box background so you can see what is behind it.
The mobile version is much harder to modify than the main version. I’ve been trying to get the side images to work in a way that doesn’t blot out the text and to add a button that completely removes the onscreen UI (an equivalent to the ‘h’ key for the PC version). But it’s proven surprisingly stubborn at resisting my efforts. I’ll have another go at it, but for now it’s just the removal of the textbox.
v0.1
Includes complete Prologue, Chapter 1 & Chapter 2
Setup of faction and character plot and mission management systems.
