Here's Female Agent version 1.3.6 P. This is similar to the Beta released last weekend, with all reported bugs fixed and a few more improvements added:
- New bar system added to all 3 nightclubs. (This is the minor feature that took me two days.)
- Drunk agents can now unlock some Promiscuous & Exhibitionist options in the clubs.
- The dance scenes in the clubs have some more interactivity added.
Please let me know your feedback & ideas, either...

I spent two whole days on a low priority feature that I think is cool, but you guys may not like. :-D It will get reused in every bar and nightclub in future, though, so I hope you do. General release is still on target for Sun: I'm going to spend the weekend ...

I spent all day working on something that I thought would just take the morning, but it's nearly finished. Still on target for a general release on Sunday, followed by the next dev poll.

All bugs destroyed. Thanks to Hyneman and Alex P for taking so many of them out, and to all members of the community who provided vital recon and intel. Day 3's bug fix version has been uploaded to the (Patron only) Beta post below.
We'll now move onto some polish tasks, aiming for a general release on or before Sunday.
Next week we'll run a new dev poll, allowing Patrons to vote on what feature gets worked on next. I can't wait!

Thanks for all the bug reports sent in so far, everybody. My plan for the rest of the week is:
- Bug fixes
- Polish
- General release on or before Sunday
Next week, we'll vote on the next development goal, and move onto the new smaller/faster update model to see if it works better.
Thanks everybody for your support! I'm so grateful!

This release hasn't got everything I wanted it to have, and it still needs polishing in quite a few areas, but here is a beta version for you guys to play around with. Please post feedback, bug reports and polish requests here and/or in Discord.
Note: the link is now to 1.3.6.B.4, the day 3 bug fix version.

I think I’ve been too ambitious with the amount of content included in each release. I want everything to be great, so I cram in as much as possible into every release, but that makes the wait between releases a long one.
As an experiment, I want to try out a new model that will get smaller updates out faster.
My idea is that each of the next few releases will be built around just one major improvement.
Examples of major improvements include:
