From popular requests, v3.7 will be a bit different from the usual updates and it will focus entirely on
bug fixing.
In the past, I tried to fix bugs as I went on with the usual content / feature / kink updates every two weeks. This approach had worked quite well until v3.0, but the game has become quite a bit more complex after the v3.0 overhaul - meaning every new feature added now is more likely to cause some bugs with something existing. With the little time left for each update after finishing all the work for the new content / features of the update, for the last few updates, I ended up only being able to prioritize fixing the game-breaking bugs like crashes and freezes etc and it was hard to get all the little bugs when by the time I've done the actual update and got to the bugfix stage it was usually less than 24 hours before release date. It's not so much the 'fixing' part that is time-consuming, but rather reproducing the bug then tracking down the root cause that can take hours even for a relatively minor bug.
These 'minor bugs' of course pile up over time and affect the players' experience. Therefore, I think the periodical bugfix-only updates where I do not work on any new content or feature and focus entirely on hunting down and fixing bugs, big or small, are now necessary going forward (I'd say maybe one bugfix-only update every quarter / i.e. 4 updates each year out of ~26 updates in total, would be a reasonable balance between still providing a lot new content and making sure the game remains relatively bug-free and enjoyable).
Thank you to everyone who has reported bugs so far. Please continue to post these bug reports, with
as much details on how to reproduce the bug in game as possible (i.e. do x > do y > bug happens every time). Make sure that you're on the latest update (v3.6) too when reporting bugs. My preferred channel to receive bug reports is via the

. So if you want to make sure a bug that is particularly annoying you is fixed in v3.7, do report it there between now and Friday. Chances are, it's already been reported by someone else, but
when it comes to bug reports, honestly, don't worry about duplicating / reposting, it makes sure I didn't miss anything and helps me to double-check that a bug has been fixed or not and also gives a rough idea of how commonly occurring a bug is anyway. If you reported a bug in the F95/ LoversLab forum thread, maybe repost on Discord anyway just to make sure I didn't miss it (things tend to get buried quite easily in forum threads)
