Update V0.1.1I and other news!

Hey all! Been a bumpy month irl, but got a bit of time together and got this update ready for you all. Just wanted to go over whats in it, plans for the rest of the month and what all might be happening ~

So here we have Version 0.1.1I, which has a version tag so ugly it made me wonder if I should change my versioning style haha. 

Jokes aside; here's the meat of the update: The update is going to bring a host of new interactions to the Meadow region with the Melapoid hive, a new transformation set, a new event to the ruins, a couple new items, fixes, new helpful debugging tools and more ~

You can find the full changelog and download below!


Now for the life updates and future game plan junk lol. So, for those new or not aware, I'm about to be a new mom. Our baby is going to be born in the next couple weeks, due date is the 27th but basically at any point come the 14th till just after new years. Hard to say as only 5% of people give birth on their due date haha. 

Anyways, so, as a new mom, whenever it happens, there's going to be a pretty big adjustment period and I am not sure how that will effect development of this game. On one hand, baby, so that's going to be my main focus going forward, on the other hand, I'll also be off work for atleast a month or so and going to be reducing my hours at work when i return to it to be home with my child as much as I can, which may also mean more free time to work on the game here or there. It's hard to know till we're in it. So I just want folk to know that and make their own calls on whether they want to continue supporting the project or wait a month or so until things get back in the swing of things. Either way, thank you all so much for the support showered on me for this little game, it means a lot and has helped us so much and I hope to continue bringing us all fun updates and more mischief in my little oc world ~

That said, I have lots of plans and fun things I want to do in the updates going forward and I am eager to talk about that and work on it. I want to dig into the parasite, immobility and dating systems, expand interactions with current characters, add in Donna Delightful's diner dimension, Verallia's palace, new tfs and all sorts of stuff. I'll have some fresh polls soon and more ideas to go over after I get some debugging done on the new version

(Got work early so forgive me if the version isn't in the best condition, had to wrap it up quick and run off haha. I'll fix any issues I can when I get back from work tomorrow, but enjoy!)

Anyways, here's the changelog:

Version [0.1.1I] - (12/03/22)

Additions
+ Added a new debugging tool to the page footer while in debug mode.  Pressing the "player variables" will open a page that auto-generates a  list of all of the player's variables and their given values.
+ Added a new debugging tool to the page footer while in debug mode.  Pressing the "Passage Raw Text" link will open a page that displays the  passage in unformated plain text including the code blocks and other  bits
+ Added a new debugging tool to the  page footer while in debug mode. Pressing the "passage list" link will  generate a table of links to every story passage in the game allowing  for easier scene testing. This will likely break progression or flags,  so use cautiously
+ The front page now  displays random game lore, Character details, meta facts, trivia and  memes under the 'Daily Blurb' section. A silly and simple addition
+ Added a new bundle of encounters to the Meadow region,The Melapoid Hive
➤ it includes a couple new insectoid characters to interact with.
➤ The hive can be snuck into to steal honey.
➤ Heavy players can accidentally break the floor and fall into the honey pit.
➤ The Queen's chamber can be snuck into to steal royal jelly.
➤ The  Queen's chrysalis can be examined for growth and fed various liquids  though the feeding tube. While the queen's hatching isn't implemented  yet, items fed to her will influence her eventual appearance ~
➤ The player can be captured and injected with bloat venom
➤ on occasion the hive entrance can be found blocked by a honey swollen Melapoid who can be teased or helped.

+ Added a new status effect, "bloated", causes temporary water/weight  retention and discomfort messages. It'll subside on its own but  BitterBean-Tea, Vermifuge Syringe and Antifat-philter can remove the  status
+ Added a new item "Honey", a simple food item
+ Added a new item "Grease". Can't be eaten unless cursed or sufficiently gluttonous enough. Causes bloating effect
+ Added a new transformation set, Melapoid. This is an insectoid transformation, similar to bees or honeypot ants.
+ Added a new item "Royal Jelly", causes melapoid transformations
+ Added a new event to the ruins, when one steals the mysterious meat  from the mine site there's a chance to be caught leading to the new  event. As punishment the player will be made to work the mine or eat the  meat-slag for the miners' amusement.
+  Added a couple short dialog options to Baronet Laurent, he can now be  asked about the state of the world, his species, the melapoid race, the  sheewog race, the alp race, and the milk monastery in the meadow, given  the player character has met/learned of these things prior
+ Eye transformations are now properly reflected in the character description

Fixes;
x Fixed an error that would trigger when using the enter key to input a  line of code in the debug text box instead of using the enter button
x Fixed some mutagens not being removed under some conditions
x Fixed the cow maiden in the flower grove commenting on the players breasts even when the player doesn't have breasts

Changes;
~ Multiple items now have a small chance to trigger the "bloated" status  effect, notably mystery-meat and beast blubber. But some others also  have a very small chance.

~ The airship event has been removed since its subsequent content hadn't been implemented yet in order to reduce confusion

~ Blob, slime and berry TFs can now change the player's lactation type to grease, slime or juice respectively
~ Breast milk types has been implemented and are now reflected in the  milking scenes. If the player lactates honey, they'll produce bottles of  honey, if slime/juice/etc it'll be reflected in the item received.
~ Transformation items have had their potency increased but have reduced how long they take effect
~ Alp fruit now has a 20% change to trigger a mutation event
