Tech Update #12: UI Special
Hello dear friends! I have a very special little update for you today! Over the past couple of days, the much-promised UI rework has been completed! All the functionality is now in place, and the system was migrated to Star Periphery today.
So, let's take a look at everything it has, with moving pictures this time! I will be using gifs, since Patreon does not allow embedding videos. These will show you how everything looks in motion, but please keep in mind that the framerate is not the best, not to mention image quality.
The first change is the main in-game menu. I have reworked it from the ground up for better visibility and new functionality, like the autoplay. All nested neatly in a little retractible menu, so that you can use it as you wish!
The biggest attraction, however, is the new inventory, codex, skills, and contacts. These are all ready, waiting to be filled with all that sweet and spicy content, with which I have already started!
Of course, the Equipment tab is the biggest change. Not only is it a fully-fledged inventory where you can move items as you wish, each with description and item rarity, but the promised clothing system is also in place!
You can switch multiple outfits you will find along your way, and you can even look at them from both angles!
Finally, the main menu was also completely reworked. Here is a little teaser of that:
I am very happy that the UI rework was finished earlier than expected. You will be able to enjoy all it has to offer in R6.5, which is nearly complete, as well!
That's it for today. Have a fantastic rest of the day or night, and until next time, take care, friends!

That UI's looking sleek! Looking forward to see all the new menu stuff in action 😃 I can only imagine what a relief it must be to feel less constrained by the size of the text boxes too, writing in confined spaces is the worst!
Oh, there are many more hidden benefits! Including the fact that the new UI is ready for the future Android (or Steam Deck) implementation!
Really enjoying the lore, don't mind starting over again with the new UI.
Thank you, I'm glad to hear that!
Nice
Thank you, Carl!
Will there be an equipment limit, or is the inventory designed to accommodate everything we could conceivably buy?
There is currently no item limit, and I will probably keep it that way. However, in the future, once MC receives his own cabin, that might change, as I plan to introduce a few more things that will coexist with the inventory, like the wardrobe!
Can we still use the old saves with this UI rework? Especially if we already purchased some things int the in-game shops? If not I don't really mind to have the opportunity to do it all over again 😁
I'm afraid not. There is no way for me to keep the old saves, as the entire game was reworked from the ground up. I am very sorry about that!
Amazing!! This game is great and I’ve been looking forward to an inventory for a long time, and finally being able to put on the pink latex lingerie I bought for the MC will be great. Can’t wait to see what else you’re going to add to this game.
I already have a few ideas about how to expand the system later; there is a lot of cool stuff planned, including a boatload of latex outfits!
can't wait for blue cock time
Soon!
Does this change add gb's into the game? Will it affect much for mobile user that use joiplay ?
The increase in the game size is very small! No clue about the JoiPlay users, though. What should be noted, however, is that the new UI is made with multiple platforms in mind so that it is ready for the official Android port that will come later this year!
That is a very clean and sleek interface. Fantastic job there! Does the extra outfits now mean you will need to re-render entire scenes in order to see the outfits, or have you managed to render them in layers (if you can, not sure that would even work with if you have used ray traced or path traced lighting).
Thank you, I'm glad you approve! The outfit system will serve to unlock new special scenes and interactions for the most part. That way, I will keep the workload sensible while allowing a basic layer of personalization for your MC!
It was certainly a test of my ability to focus on anything seeing an update pop up in the last few minutes at work, but it was worth waiting to see the fun new things!
Thank you, I'm very glad you like it! There is a lot more cool stuff to it!
Omg!!! That's so good!and diferent from when i start playing! You realy evolve yourself throw time my friend!
Thank you very much, Samu! The new UI and the functionality it brings was long time overdue!
Smooth operation 😎
It's a lot smoother in the game! You'll see that for yourself soon!
