Hi all,
We had no shortage of issues last month, you could say we had them in spades. That said, we're finally here with the tentative initial release of the character customisation system. There will be a further two updates to this system in October alone, so don't worry that the game has taken a step back in some areas as this content will reappear soon.
For this initial release we've enabled customisation on Human Males, Human Females, and Draconid Females. Due to the new material system however we've temporarily pulled the hybrid demi-races, as the system they relied on is no longer used for the player (they'll be back later in the month).
For now you can select the species you wish to adopt the form of from within the inventory, though as the world and story develops this will shift to an in-world area and/or item to enable adjustment. All the sliders we've implemented thus far are also unlocked by default, though as the game progresses we'll add bonus customisation that unlocks with quest completion and specific sexual encounters.
Body cosmetics are now housed in this menu as well, to reduce the confusion with skin-tight garments such as the Bedlah or Wraps. This initial release introduces a handful of additional Draconid skins but removes the glowing and iridescent versions - the new and improved versions of these are coming later in October.
Your head cosmetics, hair or horns, will no longer be an inventory item but instead part of the customisation. To this end we've added placeholder hairstyles to give some starting options prior to the content schedule of adding many new variations in the coming months.
Every character in the game has been rebuilt from scratch for this update, granting us far more detailed deformation including genitals for the in-development dynamic sex system.
In terms of story we're well into implementing additional quests, with scripts already sent out to actors to record full voice for the plotlines. The main story too is awaiting the dynamic sex system in order to be able to take full advantage of Bast's Inquisitor.
In preparation for a major questline we've also opened up the Slaver's Quarry zone, populated with countless unfortunates. You can't yet get involved in the story there, but you can have a poke around and get some idea of the events yet to unfold on the world.
There are a plethora of other changes as usual, the most significant of which is the inclusion of a rare and secret weapon. Some say it struck the heavens themselves...
Thank you all so much for bearing with us during the challenges of September. We're midway through Felian customisation and demi-races are close behind; October is going to be a full month in terms of new features! We're excited to see what you make with the system once it's fully released.

I've encountered few bugs, but most of them have been commented already. All I can say is that I bought the game on Steam, and I enjoy it so much that I wanted to support the Patreon. Of all the adult games I've played, this is the only one that I can just casually enjoy. There's actual combat, and I love it. If there where three things I'd say, it would be; Please don't turn the game into another breeding simulator. Aspects of that are fun, but the action and open world are amazing. Second, I hope personally for a slightly more in depth character editor. Not necessary, especially considering that you can edit your character literally whenever. Last? Magic. I love magic. Always been a mage in any game that allows it. I'd love to be a horny ass mage in this game!
download is stuck at 0%, uninstalled launcher and reinstalled, not sure if it just takes a long time or not..

Just run it anyway. Norton indicates it as safe for me.
"Due to the new material system however we've temporarily pulled the hybrid demi-races, as the system they relied on is no longer used for the player (they'll be back later in the month)." Why don't you read it over again carefully?

how do I equip a different head to racial body type?
im also only getting naga manhoods. also one npc locked on that monster between your legs doesnt interest me even after i switched back to a vagina
lo
Idk if you mind reporting small bugs or glitches but this one is kinda funny if you put on the void form and equip a different head they fuse (used the draconic head at the time if it helps)XD, oh and the model becomes headless if you have the void head and a different body. All the new additions are amazing so far and cant wait to see the rest.

Would it be possible to get a bit more range on the negative side of the sliders? It feels very limited atm, and you can't really change the body settings almost at all from the default values in the negative (left) direction of the sliders.

Had an issue with the launcher I had. Got stuck extracting the file it downloaded. I ended up killing the process and reinstalling the launcher. That seemed to fix it. Also, is it worth going through this build without any other penis options besides the Naga Manhood and one Equine Manhood? Once the others do get implemented are we going to be able to reclaim the other manhoods or do we need to restart again?

Seem it works, now. :-) Maybe has need a bit time. I have plaied a bit, now. It seem real better as the Versions I have plaied before. So, good job. And I am evertime surprised for all this small detailes inside the game. I can only say: wowwwhhh. It will be a great game (is a great game. :-))

I have get the new luncher too, but get only the version 0.2.93. I was before at Avatar level and have rise it up today to Ascended one. It is a great game. But would be nice to play the last update too...
I got the new launcher, but i can't update the game due to the launcher not being able to make connection with the website. Any ideas why?
Dreamergames
i've only gotten Naga Manhoods. Is this a bug or temporary update?
Inari the Kitsune
Wait... it's all Naga Manhoods? Always has been
