Degrees of Lewdity version 0.4.0.5
This update adds pregnancy for humans and wolves. It also includes a new area on Barb Street, a fox transformation, a stage play school project, the housekeeping skill, and a host of new events and sprites. Huge thanks to Lollipop Scythe for creating the pregnancy system, PurityGuy for a ton of work on code, sprites, and writing, as well as the many other contributors that have been involved.
The PC can both become pregnant by, and impregnate, generic NPCs and wolves. Pregnancy takes a length of time determined by settings, with the sidebar and combat sprites changing with progress. Once born, babies will live in either a new wing of the orphanage, or a new section of the wolf cave. Aside from the black wolf, named NPCs are infertile by default, as they'll each need a lot of writing. You can optionally make them fertile via a setting, but they don't yet have any unique content.
The housekeeping skill is still in its early stages, but will enable a lot of content going forward, including Avery's home location. The skill is also used in the new flats area. It's similar to Domus and Danube streets, in that you can knock on doors and ask for work, or break in and pilfer valuables. Strange people hide out there however. People with esoteric secrets leading to later game content, that encourage exploration of areas both new and familiar, and nudge the story forward.
Elsewhere, deep in the forest, foxes have been sighted, stealing eggs from nests. They have different behaviour depending on personality, and some are quite amiable. But beware, anything able to survive where wolves and hunters prowl must have more than one trick up their sleeve, and it is said their slyness can rub off on travelers.
I'm happy to announce that the contributor PurityGuy is now an official developer. He's the creator of the above-mentioned fox transformation, Sydney, the Ivory Wraith, and has helped in all sorts of ways behind the scenes over the four years he's been involved with the project.
Lollipop Scythe has been working on pregnancy in some form for a little over two years. They've gone above and beyond with the system, and they've added more and more to ensure that it's futureproofed, and that there won't be a wait like this again. There's a lot more pregnancy content to come, and it feels good to present the system at last.
Note that animations have been disabled by default on the Android version, due to a common error that has appeared since last update. You can still enable them in settings. Hopefully it'll be fixed next update, which should be much faster than this one!
Thank you for waiting. Have fun, and Happy Easter!
