The previous version of the game (v0.32, PNG) was considerably larger in disk space. Why is the new version smaller?

does Sarah actually phyically Transforms or does she just become more slutty?
At the end of the second chapter, Sarah undergoes a mutation in a Chrysalis. But we took the image of the canonical Sarah after the mutation as the basis. So if you like Sarah in canon, you'll like her in our game, too.

We are constantly trying to improve optimization, and our new programmer suggested us some points that can be optimized without loss of quality, even on the contrary improving the game. In this case, most of the space was freed up by optimizing animations, we converted them from PNG sequences to video. This required us to redesign some backend, since animations used to be displayed frame-by-individual-frame. Now, the animations are short videos. And despite the fact that we also added censored versions of some files, the game size is still significantly reduced.

Her hair turns from orange to disgusting dreads, she grows scabs over her nipples and her vagina turns purple like she has blue waffle, and her face contours like she's aged 50 years.

Also, why are you releasing public versions with gamebreaking bugs? Shouldn't you fix those before release with the patreon version? And why does the new zergling scene reference her pussy when the art clearly shows anal? Did no one catch that either?

So she is finally transforming... Interesting! I haven't played this game in a while.

Well, we know what she's going to turn into. It's part of Starcraft lore, no surprise there.

I believe that the developer associated the transformation stages with the protagonist's level of corruption. And I think it's interesting to explore that.

awesome, because let's face it Sarah got even more attractive in a demonic alien way when she mutated in "StarCraft". Although she kind of goes evil in StarCraft I loved that she not only got her revenge but a happy ending...kind of with Jim. Even when she went Dark she had a soft spot for Jim. I liked that about her Arc. Even when she went evil she was still in love with Jim she suppressed her feelings to make room for her Revenge. Anyhow Sarah became even more sexy when she transformed.

Y'know, it's probably been a while since anyone asked this, but how is team doing in the real world over there, Shadow Portal? You guys holding up alright? Y'all safe and sound in Ukraine, relatively speaking, all things considered? I hope everyone on the team, and your friends and loved ones are all safe and are doing okay.

We can't not aggree. I too like Sarah in all her forms. Even though I have a thing for redheads.
