Happy New Years everyone!
I hope that you have had a a great holiday, and to those that had less than favorable holiday season I wish you the best of luck in the upcoming year.

Let's talk about all the new things presented in this update!

Artwork:
Lots of new sprites, outfits, and new CGs scenes with this release. Notably we've added in the sprites for the bully girls in their events and added in a corrupted school uniform for those of you that like to max out their corruption in their runs. It doesn't have any unique events for reactions as I'm sure many of you would have wanted to see, but it's certainly good eye candy; for those that would prefer the original uniform then you can change back via the wardrobe.
Transitions between areas has been updated and mostly work properly, they've had quite the overhaul, though there are a few hiccups here and there and we're still squashing bugs associated with it till the end so we'll also be releasing a patched version here in a few days that fixes the remaining problems with them.
The Damien homecoming dance portion has gotten its CG scene with work still being done on the rest of his events. With that CG Damien, Alex and the player get new outfits for the occasion as well. 

Writing:
The Kate Conflicts with Violet, Matt, and Damien have been added in for all of you that want various ways to break our cinnamons' heart. While the conflict scenes for Damien and Violet still need their final event you can still experience the setup events. Another conflict event event coming in 0.38 is Violet and Damien finishing off that brewing situation.
On top of all this is a rewrite of the meeting with Alice in the library and adds a new event with the bully girls in the school that ask for your homework beginning a side route with them. Perhaps they'll be intertwining Alice?
The Matt-Violet conflict now includes new dialog for if Violet is the sub in the relationship allowing a new take to the conflict between her and Kate.

Technical:
As you can see from the changelog above there have been several changes, fixes, and technical additions such as tutorials to help introduce mechanics of the game. There's a significant amount to cover and I won't be going over all of them just the major ones. Firstly the introduction scene to the game has gotten some work done on it adding in a few sound effects and reworking how it opens up.
Fixed up the Kate bus scene from triggering dialog according to who you are currently dating, previously it was skipping over other characters and heading straight to the bottom character, Matt.
Matt causing overlaps to Violet and Kate events that have been cleaned up and should no longer interfere with playthroughs unless something else has caused problems.
Can also jump to the map from the bedroom using M!

Afterword:
A few more fixes coming in a couple days for scene transitions and more.
Thank you for your patience during the development for this version and we have plenty more planned for 0.39!

Thank you,
