There are engine changes, we consensually touched our plugins, especially the ones that control cache, so, this build might crash and burn while Kira just stands there and bounces.
I say “might”, because it didn’t actually happen during our tests, but we did have this issue in the past and there is a chance we just made it resurface. Again, it is just a possibility, we didn’t actually encounter it during our tests, but I still think you should consider saving more often, just in case.
And as much as we tested it, there are definitely other bugs that we missed and we need your help finding them. We also want to know how this build runs on your PCs, since it works differently on stronger/weaker compuctors.
That’s all when it comes to bugs/technical stuff, now here’s a bit about the content itself:
I wrote around 100 pages of random interactions, all of them are either using the existing art, or new things like cut-ins and bouncy Kira. We did the thinking with Moana, and we wanted to create an early game “loop” of sorts. Where Kira would get “body writings" while sleeping - be forced to take a shower (regular waitress job would require her to be clean) - be catcalled on her way to the job - be harassed and catcalled on the job - be harrassed on her way home. And then, as the game progresses, she would either start to enjoy it all, or start murdering people. All with new events of course.
But 95% of our dev time was dedicated to the bouncy animation, it’s just that complex, and there simply was not enough time for Moana to code in and test everything I wrote. Especially when it comes to the waitress job, which has some complex interactions already and requires a lot of testing and more thought.
She had a lot of work this time around with engine changes and making “Bouncy Kira” bounce. So I deliberately wasn't specific with the amount of content this update would have, and left it for her to decide.
That said, we really want to show what we did so far, just keep in mind that there will be another version with the rest of the events in a few weeks. No more assets needed for it on my end, but I do want to write more catcalls for it, if you’ll like them. We’ll also release a bug fixed version (if it’s needed) as soon as we’ll know what else to fix.
Note: Saves work, just copy the entire save folder from the previous version into this one.
- New “Bouncy Kira” animated dialogue pose (792 pictures)
- New “Butt” cut-in (7 pictures, not animated yet, I’m working on it)
- “Misc” art (alt breast cut-in, words, items, red kira, phone, etc. - 53 pictures)
- Edited and re-saved Kira’s dialogue art to make the new animation work (149 pictures, no noticeable changes, I just had to edit the shadows for the most part.)
- Added alt “ghost” pants for future breast sizes/pregnancy (27 pictures, that’s for future)
- 2 New short sleep events with Lev&Tolstoy (mostly comedic)
- 2 New medium “bouncy” H-events at the dorm
- 2 New short “catcall” events at Residential Area
- Re-coded how Kira’s dialogue art is called again
- Changed some layering order and merged breasts layers with pregnancy (that’s for future)
- Changes to the plugins the engine uses (new preloading)
- Extended the size of the cache the game utilizes to 1gb
- Fixed a visual glitch in cases where Kira has hips1, wears “ghost” panties and a revealing version of pink skirt.
- Changed “Aura” picture for that one place where Lenn-Y can take control of Kira’s body
- 9 new random NPC artworks (some are placeholders, I’m not sure what to do with them yet)
- Reworked irregular undressings
Event conditions:
The goal, as always, was for you to find the events on your own, without the need of a guide and I think we succeeded here, all new events are bound to happen “naturally”. But I also understand that most of you have already seen everything, so I’m writing the conditions to make it easier for you to see new content.
New “Lev&Tolstoy Sleep” events - They have a 20% probability of triggering when Kira sleeps at the dorm, and a 50% probability that one of them will happen. They both have repeatable versions and some choices inside them, one of them is centered around “body writings”, so your Kira needs to be clean for it to trigger, and the other one is more centered around Kira’s appearance (it has more references).
New “Dorm Bouncing” events - It’s a short story that will be completed in the next update, it has multiple choices and a bunch of references to Kira’s appearance/stats. When Kira enters her dorm there’s a chance that there will be npcs blocking the staircase to the second floor. The first event is scripted to trigger on “day 2” (so it will be a bit weird on existing saves), the rest have a 50% chance of triggering.
From “day 2” onward, you will be able to buy cigarettes from the bazaar, they are currently only needed for this chain of events. The Kirisma dialogue option will pacify them (they won’t harass you anymore) and once you unlock Red Kira - You can permanently remove them from the game and have a little “revenge”.
Random “Catcalls” - They all trigger in Residential Area, and there are 3 types (Kira has to talk to the NPC; Automatic trigger when Kira enters the location; NPC runs after Kira). They are short, but they all reference your stats and have some dialogue options. They currently can’t be removed, because I have a different plan for them in mind (more on that in the future reports), but the general idea is to let you customize what type of content you see via Red Kira, by “removing” unwanted interactions from the RNG pool of events.
References - Apart from the usual lust/int combinations, there’s a bunch of references to Kira’s appearance and fetishes. The fetishes used in this update are Exhibitionism and Benevolence, and there’s 10 pages of references to Kira’s appearance in the “Dorm Bouncing” event (for example). References are “Cross-Event” (they are their own events inside events).
Some are one time only, but most of them have their own “first time - second time” versions. This means that you can see a “first time” reference text in a repeatable version, or in a second event - you don’t have to try and make your Kira look as lewd as possible to see all text.
Plus, it makes repeatable versions more interesting, since there’s a chance you’ll get a different reaction each time something changes in your Kira. Oh, and there’s also some references that can’t be viewed yet, but I wrote them in advance (like Kira having silicone breasts, or being pregnant, etc.)
Also, I’m open to suggestions on what other short “catcalls” you’d like to see, the goal is to have a ton of them and they don’t necessarily have to be lewd. The intent here is to make the world more immersive and the exploration more fun.
All in all, The bounce animation has so many pictures because it’s both complex and complete, it’s “endgame” ready with all planned future body modifications. It works with lower body outfits, but it doesn’t support upper body ones. One single upper body outfit would need 66 extra pictures to work with it, and I could slowly add all of them, one by one, but I don’t think that’s technically possible on this engine (And it might cause Moana's mental breakdown).
In this version, we really pushed the engine beyond what it can do. So, we will still tweak and adjust the “Bouncy Kira”, but it won’t have more art, and any future similar ideas will remain just that - ideas for a future game on a different engine. The good news is that we now know the limit of what is technically possible, and we can work with that. I sincerely hope that everything works and that you’ll like this addition to our game, as we fully intend to use “Bouncy Kira” in a lot of places.
As for the future plans, the next update will bring even more catcalls and harassment for Kira to deal with and it is just around the corner. It’s completely in Moana’s hands, while I continue working on our main planned update (the pole). Oh, and I may or may not write more catcalls, but that depends on your feedback. In any case, we’re looking forward to your feedback and suggestions on pretty much everything.
Thank you all for your patience and support, it was a really technically difficult update and I hope it both works and is enjoyable for you. The end is near!

I like the idea of Kira being harassed on her way home from work, but you might consider reworking the residential area map to facilitate that. Not a whole lot of chance for Kira to be harassed if her front door is two steps away from the cafe's entrance... though, you could maybe work in a meta bit where the map is suddenly much longer when Kira leaves the cafe the first night after work.
