Bikini lines day
Now all the avatar art has been created, it needs to be implemented into the game before 1.5 can be released. I'll report at the end of each dev day on what was achieved.
The previous version used four art assets to support one bikini line style (one for each hair colour). Version 1.5 offers a choice of five bikini line styles, using 165 art assets to support every hair colour and body type.
We completed and fully implemented this feature today. Here we see rock chick and future New Zealand SIS agent Rosie, contemplating the best way to style her lady garden:
We also added jewellery today, so your agent can now wear earrings, a wristwatch, a bracelet and a necklace. Jewellery is automatically chosen for you during the Lifepath, based on your choices (for example, an agent from the elite social class will wear an Omega Constellation wristwatch; a sporty agent will wear a Fitbit).
Right now these are little graphical touches that make your agent look more real; in Bangkok, jewellery will be another way for you to style your agent.
That's two more tasks completed in the Trello; the next dev day is tomorrow. See you then!

Suggestion: Heart shape and, especially for Canadians, Maple leaf shape.
Muahaha I love it! Maybe the maple leaf design should be unlocked in Bangkok.
Everything's set up to allow moar bush styles, so we'll definitely add moar (including full bush). We'll squeeze this into 1.5 if we can.
I have to say that ingrown hairs alone means that trimmed-natural is what the large majority of girls out there have, unless things have changed more than I think. Having said that, this is not a form of realism I want. If I could wave a magic wand and make body hair go away, I’d do so without a second thought.
are there any options to be hairier than these? btw, i love that we have these options. very much.
Will it get to Bangkok in 1.5？
Sadly no, we'll be releasing 1.5 when the avatar upgrade is finished. Bangkok is still 3-4 versions away, sorry. :-(
I personally am excited about the hair change option on he trello board :3
Yeah, that will give her look a lot more versatility!
Hey Crush, are you planning on doing another dev-test version any time soon? I'm quite excited to try out some of the new features :)
Yeah, good call, probably tomorrow :-)
