The slave summaries on the main menu have been a continual source of grief. The basic problem is that as much information as possible should be presented in as small a space as possible. This update is a nearly complete overhaul of the system. It is now possible to customize the summaries, with each category of information now available to be hidden, displayed as before, or heavily abbreviated. With the space thus made available, many niche stats not previously available in the summary have been added. After repeated requests the surgery, studio, and salon now return to the slave menu, not the main menu.
I have gotten several offers of help, here and on /d/. I've struggled with how to handle these generous offers without losing creative control or disappointing those with strong interest in the game. When reviewing the list of major tasks today, one possibility stood out. As many playtesters have noted, the hardcoded slaves created on /d/ are now in dire need of a review. This is a lengthy task that I will not have time for until much later in development. It generally involves looking at pictures and deciding whether the asses in them merit a 3 or a 4.
If anyone would be willing to assist by reviewing the hardcoded slaves' stats, let me know in the comments. If I get enough interest I'll come up with a basic mechanism for review. If not, that's fine too; I'll do a grand review when 1.0 nears.
Download: Mega. Previous saves should be compatible, but you will have to reset your summary options from the main menu.
