Howdy! Here’s what’s up:
We’re still working on both the fast and the major updates, but primarily on the fast one.
The major update requires more text and the fast one turned out not as fast as we hoped, since it required some additional art. That said, I’m almost done layering the new sleep artwork, I just have to finish layering Kira’s new nightgown.
The fast update will be released relatively soon, and then we’ll focus more on finishing the major one again.
To start off, the new sleep event required some new and rather technically complex art, we included it in the fast update poll primary because it isn’t text-heavy.
It’s meant to show Kira’s thoughts on her journey and the change she undergoes mentally based on her stats. We also don’t want it to become annoying or feel like we’re artificially stretching the gameplay, so it will be both short and skippable.
It also adds some visual representation to her changes and her choices. For example, currently it is possible to gain the exhibitionism fetish either from the Chief Officer or naturally (if Kira sleeps without underwear). And now, with the addition of this artwork - you’ll actually see her sleeping nude.
How will it work? Well, by default, Kira will sleep alone, wearing a nightgown and under a blanket.
The blanket can just fall off if her sleep is “restless”, which happens often or if Katya decides to join her - she’ll just remove it. Ideally Katya should start sleeping with Kira after their first official date, but for now - she will just sleep with Kira if they’re dating.
As for the nightgown, the dorm intro will be slightly expanded and Kira will get her first pajama of sorts. We do want to further expand the list of her nightgowns/pajamas in the future and they are treated as full outfits with built-in underwear for the sake of this event.
You will be able to customize how Kira sleeps when interacting with the bed or the clock (we’re still thinking where it would fit better) and while for now you can only pick what outfit Kira wears, this list will further be expanded to include toys and medicine (not just sleeping pills btw).
Above are the pictures that we’re implementing in this upcoming fast update, but I’d like to talk more about our plans for this particular pose.
Me and Moana brainstormed what this pose could need and what our whole “sleeping” concept should become eventually. And here’s what we came up with:
Sex toys - Kira might decide to sleep with a dildo, vibrator, milking machine, etc.
Masturbation - Kira might subconsciously masturbate due to high Lust or someones order
Partners - Kira might be dating someone and they might want to sleep together
Blanket - Would be weird if she just slept without it
Nightgown - Kira doesn’t sleep naked, at least not immediately, so she should wear something
Sex - Many possibilities here.
The artwork had to satisfy all those conditions, which is why I made it the way it is. In the future, if the “sleep event” wins another fast content poll we will start implementing them, and much faster this time around (since we already have the art).
If you’ll like this, then we would also work on expanding this line of events with additional sleeping poses, like bondage or Kira sleeping in a pet-bed.
Working on this sleep event was a challenge, because it has its own outfit, a blanket and a partner. I did my best to make this pose as universal as it can be to minimize the amount of layers/extra coding, but it’s still pretty art-heavy.
It also turned out to be rather interesting to me, I already have some new ideas for how we could utilize both this pose and the new sleeping “routines”. Fun new medicine that could alter Kira’s stats/appearance, more lewd events based on where she sleeps and other similar fun stuff.
As for the major update, it still needs more time and it can’t be finished in a week, so we decided to release another fast update first.
That said, we’re wrapping this fast update up - just have to finish layering the nightgown and test things out to see what feels more fun. Then we’ll fully commit to the major update.
Thank you all for your patience and support, the end is near!

Godspeed. May all theses three steps be achieved in a reasonable time frame.

Not yet, but soon. Here’s our plan for the next 3 major updates: - The next major update will tie in some loose ends, it will add layered art to the pole event, more H-events and a working consent form. It will also include 2 more alternative routes to the AUG’s shop event, alternative “Slut path” to Katya’s scissoring event, another outfit and more. - Then we want to focus on the fetish overhaul, fetish removal, buffs, interface art, “briefing” event (that will tie in Vivarium with the main story) After that we’ll do Moana's quest (which will be a fast update) - And then we’re back to the Vivarium.

Can't wait for the story to moo-ve forward.

Will the major update be the fetish overall? Your previews of that looked amazing.

All new events support all planned breast sizes, but the older events still need to be updated. So I thought we should wait until at least the majority of events support them before unlocking the new sizes. That said, the Farm route of Vivarium is supposed to unlock 3 breast sizes (currently it only gives 1), and we’ll get back to that storyline relatively soon.

Might be interesting if there is room for Tolstoy to be a sleepcreep.
