Howdy folks! First of all, WOW! I can't believe there are over one hundred members in the Patreon! I've been waxing over that fact in my mind like a beautiful, polished diamond. It warms my heart that you all are enjoying Varahn and Jasper's adventures, and I want to thank you all so much for the support!
Now, on to the update!
Renovations to the Haunted Brothel
For the upcoming v0.10 update, I've taken some time to refurbish a few areas of the Haunted Brothel (as well as build some new ones!). The images above show the latest updates to the "Door of the Depraved" area, along with the Hallway that features the credits plaque. This month will also bring with it the inclusion of a new area on the second floor, the club area! It'll take a lot more work to fill the club out with characters and scenes to play with, but I'm excited about the progress so far!
Changes to the Public Update
This month has brought about some odd problems as to how the public release and the Patreon release differ.
Until now, the public update has just been me releasing the Patreon version of the game from the last month over on itch.io. The 0.8 mega-update skipped ahead of the public version by a few months, so I've had to find a new way to separate the public updates from the Patron ones. There's also the long-standing problem of me not being able to go back and make bug fixes to the public version, since I'd always be developing the Patreon updates while the public version was being released.
The solution I've decided on to solve this issue is to release a specially tailored version of the Haunted Brothel to release in the public update. This will include all the latest game polish and bug fixes, but exclude the Patron-exclusive content. So the next public update (version 0.6) will include the latest inventory update that you all saw in version 0.9, but it won't include any of the exclusive content (characters, NSFW scenes, areas, etc.) like the Incubus or his side-quest, nor any of the exclusive content from version 0.7 and 0.8.
The public version will release in a few days from now, featuring the "Shower's Special Stall" side-quest you all saw in version 0.8.
Lastly, thanks everyone for commenting on the bugs you've found in version 0.9 of the game! I've had some extremely helpful messages detailing the issues people have encountered, and I'll try to fix as many as I can before the release of version 0.10.
That's all for now! Again, thank you everyone for your support. I can't wait to share more of version 0.10 with you all! Until then, have a wonderful month everyone!
