Member Test Build Announcement 07.06.2024

Hello everyone,

The June member-tier testing build is almost ready!

Progress in all departments is being made, the sandbox has an awesome new tool - the bone controller which allows you to manipulate every bone in a character in any state (sex scene, pose, NPC). 

Combat:

While the feature itself isn't in a presentable state right now, we have placed a special focus on everything combat. The team has been working a lot on animations, code and design for attack patterns, AI behavior and editing workflows and we hope to show you some playable combat progress in the August release.

Story mode information:

The story implementations have entered spoiler territory so we have included warnings at key dialogue options.
