Lesbian only huh. I guess it's tolerable. Seeing who the developer is however, this is probably just going to be another "abandoned" project (not abandoned on paper but in practicality, only characters and reskins to milk the supporters). Fingers crossed, but I have no expectations.

And I was wondering if it will get stuck in eternal 0.1. Guess I was wrong, but I still suspect the depelopment won't go far past adding new characters.

If 0.2 is as big a step as the preview made it out to be (cautiously optimistic) this might end up the project that gets fully developed after all.
If and maybe.

oh shit I got the email that the new version just dropped, let's fuckin' go
This game is actually so good, I am watching this thread like a hawk for someone to drop v0.2
I don't get why creators hide everything.
I understand putting the product behind a paywall.
I understand not giving all the details publicly.
But how are people supposed to evaluate whether or not they'd like to support a dev if they can't see anything about their progress?
I mean its free to view, but you have to make an account and follow the creator... anyways here the post's content:

Hey there, sorry for the wait!
The first update for KZO is finally ready and it's quite a substantial one.
Hogties, Headscissors, Feet smother, Restraint escape system and animations, Fixed grab dialogue, Level system, Exp draining, Restraint + Level based advantage / disadvantage... and quite a bit more.
I strongly suggest you read the changelog (you'll find it in the game's files and on Discord).
This should've been out earlier with just the hogties / holds / restraint escape and fixed written grab dialogue, but I started adding more stuff while waiting for Cinder's voice acting. The idea for a level system and all the other stuff that came after quickly spiraled out of control. Turns out leveling systems and balancing are complicated, who could've guessed.
KZO is officially way bigger than any Unity project I've ever delved into before. I'm trying my best not to commit any cardinal sins organization / optimization wise, and still I'm actually surprised at how well it runs (except for the forest map, we don't talk about the forest map).
Now for the credits... lots of people helped bring this update to fruition!
Huge thank you to Cinder Dryad for the voice acting, she really pushed herself to get it ready as soon as possible.
Big thank you to Kadokawi who drew the cute animated spinner (<- apparently that's what they're called) chibi art of Belle restraining Burnice for the loading screens.
The written grab dialogue for all the restraint / subdue starts / idles / ends / successes and failures was written by StoryEdge. With additional Burnice-only writing by Zeri which sadly came in slightly too late for it to be featured in this update (keep an eye out for it on the next one though).
Thank you to everyone who sent in their writing samples when we made the announcement, I read every single one of them personally and there wasn't a single one I didn't enjoy, appreciate you.
This was also the first time I've had an update significantly playtested by community volunteers. They were Viper3400, Vei and FrewTea. I can't stress out enough how useful it was to have someone else other than me looking out for bugs and unintended behavior, thank you.
And last but certainly not least, the talented artist behind KZO's animation style and choreography, Minko. Please go check them out if you can!
Having said that, I'd also really like to thank every single one of you out there on the Discord and over here on the Patreon for the patience and support. Your sustained backing is the main reason behind projects being able to grow bigger and more intricate with each new release and content update, I couldn't do this without you. The community's reaction to KZO has been absolutely astonishing. Sincerely, thank you.
I'm also thankful for all the concepts / ideas being floated in the 'game-ideas-brainstorming' channel. I can't bring them all to the game but I do pay attention and view them as a source of both inspiration and motivation. Seeing any in-game videos / screenshots of you guys having fun with the game also makes my day every time.
And well, that's it. I hope you'll enjoy the update!
You'll find the download links in the usual 'dedicated-follower-downloads' channel in the Discord.
KZO V0.2 is exclusive to the dedicated follower tier, the download link can be found in the "dedicated-follower-downloads" channel of the Discord which will become accessible once you've joined the tier and correctly done that Patreon -> Discord integration.
More info on the integration here:

or just check the 'faq' channel on the Discord.DM me or any mods on the Discord if you need assistance, we're here to help.

Apologies once more for the wait, expect to hear again from me much sooner. We'll probably have a community vote to decide a new character addition to KZO's roster soon.
But, for now...
Don't let thebite~
The post is locked behind free membership, so you need an account (which you would need anyway if you wanted to support them), but it does not cost you anything. The changelog (and download link) on discord, on the other hand, is stupid if you ask me, since it requires another separate account and I don't even know if the changelog is locked behind a paid tier. And then there's Itch, an actual marketplace, that contains effectively no information outside a few screenshots.
But hey, it's arguably better than some devs I have seen who only tell you they are making a game. Want to know literally anything more? Pay up!
