We’re especially taking time looking into trying to bump FPS count when you’re out and about in...

It's that time of year once again. You deck the halls with boughs of holly, gather up all your most festive tracks in a playlist, and search across the dunes for sufficient lube to allow a "trapped" woman to slip free from a giant pot.
Well, perhaps not that last one.
But fear not; we have you covered. This year's update is now

The Female/Futa Drake that is about to drop, as well as the new Male Centaur, will both have limited romance paths in subsequent updates (and we've already got the Voice Acting for these recorded and in-hand). This got us thinking; exotics are popular, romance is popular... I wonder what the next Male and Female/Futa romance options should be......

So first things first. We're waiting on some voice-acting before we can push the update, so that places our release window to the last week of July/first week of August.

Hi all,
Just a brief development update to give you an idea of where we are. Some of the new systems which we showcased in the last development blog required us to upgrade the engine to version 5.4, which we had already done at time of last posting. Since then, and as we approached our initial estimate of the end of July, ...

There will be individual posts regarding these as we go, but for now here's the birds eye view of some of what we're doing right now...
