The short version is that this update is the biggest update ever, and we went a little too hard with it - because it includes a full rewrite of the game engine and the way the game does things, handles stats, and has much much improved performanced.
And on top of that, there is a huge laundry list of new features, including the movie system (for dates and evening activities), a memory system (so your character can actually remember and recall stuff that happens)
Anyone interested in trying the new features can download / try them from the source code repository:
You must be registered to see the links
however just note it is still very much in playtesting and these features that have been added have not been publicly released because they still need polish. But they are there in the repo if you want to try them out (but it involves a couple technical steps).
Real life is not going rough for me, per se, but I do have a baby on the way end of July... so I won't lie and say that's not taking
some attention!
Edit: forgot to also mention is there are also 2 new (and unannounced) extremely detailed sex scenes, the Gym types where there are stats, basically sex fight mechanics. One for the Lana Rhoades character and one for Jade Kush - each one has about 25k-30k in writing for them and like 40 possible animations each, they are designed to be highly replayable.
