Heyo! So, first, what we're working on and what we've done: we're adding stat requirements for equipment and new and higher-leveled equipment with more bonuses and unique features as well as sexy gear like lingerie and ball gags. We've also added nipple play! We may also be adding the Mana Reserve system. Most importantly... well, read below, it's a big one. A few other things: we're making the pull-down top menu easier to use on Android, as well as increasing the size of the skill buttons in battle on Android.
On the art side, we're working on the Fire Elemental animation, which is almost completed, and then butt-stuff (the colon, rectum, sphincter indicators). We'll probably also be finishing up a little doppelganger piece.
Aside from Mana Reserve, we're also doing a big overhaul of erotic combat. There'll be completely new erotic attacks with various effects, including both erotic and non-erotic ones. This will also allow us to add a lot more in battle chatter and little special effects.
A big system that's getting a lot of love as well is the system around Hiro's demeanor. Currently, most of the checks and branches are related to a handful of perks and a kind of generic "lewd" trigger that is influenced by said perks (or taking the "Catamite" perk just unlocks all of them, to make things simpler for sexy-content seekers), as well as a few other factors.
So there are a number of axes - Chastity/Purity/Sluttiness is one (represented on a scale from Chaste to Complete Slut), Dignity is another (from Haughty to Depraved), and another is Femininity.
Femininity will be mostly divorced from sexual actions for the most part - the player will be able to choose femininity to some degree to start, and various things will increase or decrease it.
It will affect some of Hiro's behavior, his body language, his speech patterns, or whether Hiro objects to being called a girl/boy or other things like that.
In general, dignity and lustiness will tie much more closely to things related to desire - what Hiro will or won't do, or when Hiro will or won't be able to control himself (without burning some Willpower), respectively.
The perks will still play a factor, though they'll also be getting some re-design. A mostly chaste Hiro (or even entirely chaste!) might be able to resist the allure of cawk in the general sense, but one with level 3 Equestrian may bite their lip or take the plunge if a willing Centaur dong presents itself. A Complete Slut Hiro will be excited for just about anything, but their dignity may compel them not to - or it may get pushed aside, which will start to erode it...
The numbers and ranks for this will be transparent, and it'll take a lot longer to change Hiro completely. Also, caps will be placed on battles to prevent Hiro from doing a complete 180 just because he takes fifteen miles of goblin wang all at once.
One important aspect of this is that a lot of the game overs will not be possible until you have a certain level of indignity or sluttiness, and we'll tweak that so that getting a game over is much more difficult. The starvation encounters are designed to force dignity low quickly, so that still remains a threat.
This'll be a pretty big overhaul as well, so between it and the erotic skills overhaul it'll be a lot of new stuff, a lot of which should be in the next weekly or two.
We'll also be updating the Help Screen as much as possible to make all of this more clear, although we've also got a wiki floating around that we'll be adding to.
