🎀 v1.4 early access

Hi guys!

This day has come – v1.4 is open for early access. This update is quite an unusual one. I had to dive deep into infrastructure, built my own game server, worked a lot with multiple generative AIs, got a colossal amount of editing and writing practice, and drew a bunch of new clothes…
But stop talking all about me, and let's talk about what exactly is inside for you!

• Album panel – allows you to save up to 16 girls. Saves include traits, clothes and personality, but ignore current session progress and toys – think about it as a possibility to meet the partner once more.

  • Each girl now has her own name. In sandbox you can choose any name you want, in hard mode names are randomly taken from a large pool (also it’s a part of my future big plan). Patrons can suggest the names they like to be added to the pool.

  • Click the heart button aside of name to save a partner’s contact to your album, then autosaves will happen twice a minute. Please, mind that all changes to girls' look (body, hear, face etc.) will be saved. Click the button once more to force saving your progress if you need it immediately.

  • You can delete saves and add notes to it. 

  • Also I’ve added the possibility to copy saves if you’re eager to experiment with things without the risk of losing the original.

  • All saves are stored locally and are persistent between any game updates (theoretically), unless you’re playing in a browser with too strict security settings (e.g. Safari). 

• Cloud saves – now you’re able to create an account and backup your data on MyJLC server (4 slots for public version, 8 for patreon). This allows you to sync your favorite girls between multiple browsers or devices and protects them from accidental loss if something goes wrong with your local data (especially in browsers; especially important for Safari users).

  • Registration is optional – so if you don’t want/need it you can just click the ‘be my guest’ button and play as usual, but without the syncing feature.

  • Internet connection is not required – if the game can not connect to its server it simply does not sync data and runs locally. In this case if you have an account you’ll see the unsynced slots in UI. Once the connection is back, all slots appointed for synchronization will be synchronized automatically.  

  • Cloud syncing happens once a minute. Don’t forget to check your girls are saved and synced before closing the game.

  • You can log off your account in settings if needed.

• Large talks update. The core of it are 3 new personalities with over 6000 new text lines in addition to the original Lolly. 

  • Yandere – obsessive personality, using poetic language with maniacal notes, focused on the player. Includes a sub-type yandere/sub with more sacrificial phrases.

  • Tomboy – open straightforward personality, uses simple language with a street fleur and a bit of rudeness. Includes sub-types tomboy/slutty, tomboy/sub and tomboy/backdoor with extended pool of phrases.

  • Chatgirl – joyful Internet-dependent personality, heavily uses slang, emojis, abbreviations and shortened words. Includes sub-type chatgirl/slutty.

  • All talks now are split into subsets and use the vocabulary of synonyms, generated per girl, to make them more unique even within the same personality type. 

  • Phrase constructing was reworked to include special effects like hearts and pauses dynamically, depending on the current mood.

  • ‘Gagged’ phrases are now also generated dynamically.

  • Talks visualization was updated for easier reading. 

  • and many other minor tweaks.

• Wardrobe updates:

  • 4 new lingerie sets added with some matching accessories: a striped casual set with high socks, a gothic see-through set with knee-high socks and fingerless gloves, a conservative boss set with high-rise panties, crotchless tights and pearl necklace... and a bonus set – painted clothes on a naked body + your complimentary handprint on her butt.

  • Crotch area was heavily reconstructed for better animation. I reconsidered my old design and improved the intersection of layers, which should make the introduction of new clothing elements easier.

Besides that we got 2 midway events while waiting for v1.4: Christmas and Valentine’s Day with dedicated looks, which are now permanently available for Dandies+ in the web version.

During the testing period, 86 bug reports were registered. The biggest ones 57 of them were processed and fixed. As you can see, there are still ‘some’ left to be fixed later. As they say: the older the game is, the hairier the bugs are (he-he).

Thus the public release is planned for March 22nd.

Have a relaxing weekend!
