Maybe not initially, but come on now. Inno would have to be completely oblivious not to know what she's doing.
There's literally zero way that anyone could argue that the v0.4.0 release *wasn't* a cash grab to try and boost popularity.

Like, even in the internal notes it wasn't called v0.4.0 but another v0.3.x patch.

It might not have been a cash grab before, but it definitely is now.

New blog update. This is delay #6 since the last preview build, which was just about a month ago.

Another Delay said:
I'm really sorry about this, but getting this content finished has once again taken far longer than I expected. I've got all of the framework, placeholders, and mechanics completely done, but I haven't yet finished the associated content in Elis's Shopping Precinct. Getting that into a playable state is going to take at least another day, possibly more, so I'm not going to be able to get the preview release out tonight.


To show you that I've made progress on this new area, I've pushed my current build to github's dev branch, so if you wanted to read through the code I've been adding, you can see it here: (I'd advise against building it to play at the moment, as it likely contains several game-breaking bugs, which I'm going to be fixing for the preview update...)


For those of you who'd rather get the tl;dr version of what specifically I've been working on and what's been taking so much of my time, I'll put it at the end of this post (so those of you who want to avoid spoilers can skip over it).


So, anyway, I'm going to get this Elis content finished and linked to this new area over the next couple of days, and I'll get the preview out to you as soon as it's ready. I really am sorry for giving all these deadlines and then missing them. I just end up panicking a little and trying to rush when it's already taken me so long to get the next update released.


I'll make another post on Thursday night, hopefully with the preview release, but if not then at least with more information on what I've got done. Thank you all for your patience.


New Area Spoilers!

So for those of you who want to know what exactly it is I've been working on, I decided to add a side quest to the first Shopping Precinct NPC I started to add. This side quest involves retrieving a breast pump from the NPC's old workplace out in the Foloi Fields. This workplace is the new area which I've been adding, and takes the form of an industrial dairy farm.


Although I originally only intended this new area to be a quick stop where you'd retrieve the breast pump and then immediately head back to Elis, I started to feature creep it by adding an internal map and a unique NPC for the farm's owner. I then thought that players would want to see (and have sex with) the farm's employees, so I moved on to adding that. After that was done, I thought that it would be nice to work there as one of the cows being milked, so I added that, and then expanded the initial 'enter barn and get milked' into a promotional system which leads you through 3 barns. After that, I added a new (very easily avoidable) bad end at the end of this content. Then I felt like having just a generic receptionist being referred to but not existing as an interactable NPC was boring, so I went back and added a new NPC (and new 'donkey' subspecies), and then updated all of the references involving the nameless receptionist. Then I thought people would want multiple ways to have sex with this new NPC, so I went back and added support for that, and then after all of this was finally finished (tonight) I remembered that I hadn't yet finished the original Elis NPC quest content, so I couldn't get this preview released after all.


So, it was basically just a cascade of feature creeping, and now the farm which I've added has ended up with far more content than I originally intended (and a lot of writing to get done...). As mentioned above, I should be able to get the Elis content finished within a couple of days, and then I'll do some testing and get the preview out to you as soon as I can...
She's using the feature creep excuse. That's a risky move.

And this right here, ladies and gentlemen, is why we can't have anything nice.

Yep, i think i've finally reached the final stage of playing LT:

1. Denial: "i literally just tried this game a few days ago and it's so fucking good i drained my balls for 3 days nonstop, wtf are these bitter forum dwellers even talking about, this game is brilliant!!!"
and also "...huh? that's all for the new update? ...well i guess the dev need some time to rest, game-development is not easy after all, i hope the next update is released smoothly as promised"

2. Anger: "again??? but how?! why??!! how can she get away with this again?!"

3. Bargain: "maybe i should play other games while waiting for a more substantial update, instead of trying every new version i'll just skip 10-20 update and see what's new, with this method i think i can deceive myself into looking at major changes"

4. Depression: *1.5 year has passed* "huh... wasn't the story also ended here last time?"

5. Acceptance: "i'm just gonna read the thread with some popcorn while reading ppl who are still on stage 1 arguing against ppl who are on stage 2"
I'm 3 months old on my 5th stage and this is still relevant as ever

I think you need to add my stage:
"Play whatever is available, then move on onto the greener pastures."
After all, i am only on like page 18 out of 60+ pages in the trending section of this forum. :cool: :coffee:

Good to see a woman more perverted than most men! We need more people like her in the world!!!

Also, this game is her full time job? How much can this game make per month? I’m just damn curious, any one has any idea?

You know those times when something is annoying?
Well, this game is unmatched for those times:
Have fun West..png

I think now Mr.West will be far less annoying. :giggle: :coffee:

Probably been asked before (sorry), but where do you get Angel Nectar to cure addiction? Tried all the surface-level shops and didn't find any.

Unless the latest update mucked it up, Angel's Nectar can be purchased in the shopping center from Ralph. It should be on the fourth page of items, third row, the very last item you can purchase.

Any demon in a "very dangerous" area usually has some as well.

PS: People what's the most profitable milk type?
Even though i get so much cash that it hardly matter but hell why not min-max a little. :giggle: :coffee:
Maybe soon i'll buy Lilith's Tower, together with Lilith in it.
