Hex: Serpent's Spiral - Coming soon (a few days at most)

Because it's so close to the holidays and the update is taking so long, I'm going to release the free and patron versions at the same time, but this will not be the norm, I'm just in an awkward position with the timing of everything. And patrons received a pretty substantial update already, basically the first half of this update.

In addition to everything released in the patron only update (new quests, locations, spell schools, etc), Serpent's Spiral will contain an alpha version of the pregnancy, birth, and kin systems. For now, you will not be able to adopt or equip kin, or view their stats, but you can get pregnant, give birth, and feed your kin! Also included is the new major character Despoena, who—based on your decisions—may come live with you at the chapel as a maid. This will add dom-style gameplay systems where you manage Despoena's "obedience" through rewarding good behavior and punishing bad behavior! It's a pretty fun gameplay loop, imo. And don't worry, it's all very consensual; Des is probably more into it than Iris is.

There is also a new request and some other new fancy things, like new skits, events, and outfits, as well as balance changes and quality-of-life improvements!
