v0.3.0 is now live.
Changelog in OP.
This update is centered primarily around the council and focuses mostly on story content. It adds new subsystems, facilities, and interactions to help manage your hub and prepare you for events in future content. It answers (and converges) a number of questions, but also poses a few more.
There's a few new characters, but not as many as New Eden introduced.
Any characters you met in New Eden but didn't finish their event, or any you just didn't meet, are available again once you can reenter New Eden. However, their events are slightly different given you are no longer trying to garner info from them ready for the cabinet meeting. A few of them even have additional content. The movies app will automatically change its hint based on where you are in the story.
This update is likely to need the most balancing vs the others. We've tried to use the save files people sent us here and on Discord to better manage that, but player stats were quite varied, so completionists are likely to see it as easy, but people speeding through main story only may not. That said, the cheats remain an option for those less interested in the management aspects of the game that just want to experience the story and less 'grind'.
I've also now opened SubscribeStar. It will not be paywalling any content so the benefits are rather limited, and given this is a piracy forum I am of course not expecting much of anything, but should you wish to contribute it would be appreciated. The game will always be free, the porn used is available freely online and I have no business charging for it. If you wish to contribute it's purely for mine and Shazamify's time in crafting this game.
We will now focus substory and optional content for the next two-three months with more regular updates until pushing on to 0.4.
Enjoy!
