We're minus 2 devs; and we've been pretty inconsistent since that; we used to be once a month on average.

I've found a bug, but I'm not sure if it's know already.
When you go from the cave to the beach, and then walk around, all navigation options disappear and you're stuck

Always report a bug; worse case we already know and maybe you give us more details on it.
We're currently trying to fit a story modification in so that if you met Lisa on the road and talked to her, but didn't take her to avoid the suspicion bump and you didn't find her in the dorms before she leaves on her trip, that you get another chance to get her and add her to your collection.
We're also working on the drug selling mechanic as a part of earning money, with risks from increased suspicion and eventually conflict with other criminals (not imagined for phase 1 of this integration).
Additionally, 2 more random girls are being added; one is art complete the other is in progress. Neither have stories written, one will be added to the library and the other is currently being debated.
On the fence; we have some fleshing out of some of the shop/store owners as characters and some more background personalities we'll be introducing as "mission givers" as well as "information points" as various stories start to get woven to help fill the sandbox with a bit more life besides the main plot line and associated content. We're not sure when these will come in and we're not committing to getting them into the next build at this point. We're also working on more cave improvements and entirely new resources to be collected, used for building, and sent back to meet war goals.
Just an update; work is continuing on the selling of illicit substances gameplay method with spots you'll find to deal and the possible benefits / dangers from it. It will mean a bit more cash, but also it will raise the risk of gaining suspicion or worse. Eventually (though not in the coming update), this will put you on the radar for a rival criminal organization you'll have to deal with that will tie into the very short "Blackmail" subplot that is currently abruptly cut off. Hoping to have an update out in the next couple of weeks or so (this always varies by how well or poorly the internal testing goes before we turn it loose and you all find a ton of things we fucked up...lol)
Is there plans to have more ways to lower suspicion? Like maybe you encounter a government agent and enthrall them to occasionally lower suspicion. It also would be nice to go in to the cave and find your thralls having fun with some of the captives.
Yes, there are more ways coming to lower suspicion. The key is balancing them so they're not too easy; but they will be getting added.
i love your game that you have made, i was wondering how you communicate with the rest of your team? i have a friend who is quite good at programing in python and i believe html. he is unemployed at the moment and might be able to help. if nothing else, i would just like to say that your work is great, keep at it!
Thank you, I will pass that on to the team; we use a Discord server for our discussions.
Yep; has been a while, that is for sure. Progress is being made; we're hoping to have our next release out relatively soon. When exactly? I honestly don't know.
Hey if y'all are interested in a bit of extra help I got laid off recently and would be fine with dusting off my html skills.
Fuck dude; sorry to hear that. I'll pass it along to the team. It's gotten to the point where they had *me* do the TV stuff (TV can be watched in next release for a short bit of news based on your suspicion level). Not exactly world changing stuff, but it had been waiting for ages.

This is kind of an embarrassing ask but I'm trying to edit my save file to boost some resources for an easier start, I'm restarting after the nth time and the early game is a bit slower than my liking, but after changing the two values for like money, resinAmount, etc. it's not actually reflecting a change. Drugs and suspicion changes but not the other stuff. What am I missing? Thanks.
if you start the game with "cheater" as your name, you unlock the dev menu in the cave and can spawn all the money and resources as well as reset suspicion to 0. We use it to test different triggers in the game.
