Mid-August Progress Update

Hey all! I hope you've been having a good August! Here's what's been up in terms of development for the game in the past couple weeks:

..Bug fixes!!

I have been working towards releasing a final bug-fixed version, which will be released sometime in August. Full disclosure, I have been/will be out of town quite a bit over August, so haven't gotten it ready as quickly as I'd hoped. But a bunch of the bugs you guys have been mentioning will be taken care of in the patch, and stuff like the leaky pants system will be finished (leaking in pull-ups, being able to properly wash clothes, etc), as well as some of the janky potty events. So yeah, you can expect that soon!

BUT since bug-fixing doesn't leave me with much new content to talk about, I thought this would be a good opportunity to chat with you about my plans for the December 1st update! And also take your input if I'm missing anything important! SO, my current plans are as follows:

Firstly- Wow, Miss Laura won that last poll by a landslide! Which is awesome, because I really want to do more with her! Perhaps you saw the full photoset of Soap's pictures from the latest pinned post.. I will be working towards, ehm... "situations" like those! ;) Miss Laura will be able to join as the next party member, and will have more interactions in general. (And ohhhh boy, will some of her interactions *ever* make Kiera feel like a baby!~)

Blossom, Tess, the Princesses, and the playpen Littles have also generated interest, so I will focus on more content for them too! You can expect more animations and interactions based around changing time and nap time, as well as the plot getting expanded through adventures given to Kiera by her fellow Littles. I will be adding a new outfit via the Princesses (the Princess dress/onesie that won an earlier poll), so you'll have more stuff to waddle around the daycare in!

I'll try to work on all the characters at least a bit, allotting time to them based on how many votes they got- so don't despair too much if a character you like wasn't the most popular!

As far as the game's systems, as usual I'll be developing the potty system further. Allowing for accidents of both types in panties (text and animation) is a priority, since I know some of you are looking forward to that. I'll also work towards finalizing potty training and making custom animations/interactions for when Kiera gets to the potty just a liiiiittle too late.

I'd like for traits and skills to have more of an impact on the game! I will be making more interaction branches based on traits, and adding functionality to more skills. I will also add more variation to interactions based on Kiera's stats (maturity, independence, and potty training).

I will continue developing unfinished adventures and add some new ones. After all, Kiera is an adventurer, so there should be lots for her to explore!! I'll also look into adding some more rallies and calamities so you have more ways to level down.

So yeah.. Apart from those, I'll definitely be working on lots of little things, but I'd like for those to be my main focuses for the December 1st update!

What do you think of these plans? Feel free to let me know if there's anything missing that you'd like to see, I'm totally open to suggestions of what to work on next! Chat again soon! :)
