0.10.0 Release!

0.10.0 for Handlers and Agency Chiefs

(as always, check this post for links to download)

Personalities have been implemented for Act I. That means that some choices are now gated by personality, and personality is affected by choices you make in-game!

How will they work?

• At the beginning of Act I, Claire is assigned a personality trait depending on her stats. This could be fully aligned with 'Slut', 'Prude', or 'Normal'. It also could comprise of a grey area and give her two of those traits (but never 'Slut' + 'Prude').

• Certain choices will be gated by these traits.

• Certain choices will affect these traits -- most of the time choices that affect these traits are gated by them as well (Pushing her further one way or another on path she was already on). But there are a fair number of choices so far that are based on some other skills/traits or are just open choices for her that will also affect her traits (allowing her to nudge away from traits she is otherwise 'locked' into, or towards traits she's seeking).

I also spent quite a bit of time going through the University segment of the Prologue to add in speech bubbles, improve code and clarity. Some of those changes include:

• getting a 'job' in college is easier now,

• it's less likely to get kicked out of sororities,

• there's more nuance to long-distance and college relationships,

• AND I added a new bit on the first night of college for Claires trying to hold down an LDR who might have gotten a bit too wild.

As a little extra bonus, I took a cycle to sit down with the 'origin' story at the beginning of the game and gave it new flavor to reflect the choices that you make.

Release Breakdown:

• Personalities! Current content rewritten with three new 'sliding-scale' personality types for Claire: Prude/Normal/Slut

• 12 new pieces of passage art!

• 6 new headshots for characters

• New piercings to choose from!

• Dozens and dozens of bug fixes, UX and UI improvements

• New 'Origin' story that reflects the choices you make!

• Blue Swallow theme, motifs, first chorus and first verse make their debut in the game!

• Sexuality checks have been added throughout Act I to help reflect lesbian Claires better

• Quick-Start Claires! Rebel and Loser

----------

Side note/warning: With the implementation of traits and the expansion of 'lesbian' checks throughout Act I, it is far easier to gain Corruption. Be careful!

TLDR - Being a lesbian in the main game is playing on Hardcore mode.
