ALPHA 0.9.8: Another Thousand Words

This update is very short on gameplay content, but I have two mitigations to offer. First of all, 0.9.7 saves are compatible with this update, so there's no need to start a new game or use New Game Plus if you're in the middle of a playthrough. Second, and much more importantly, this update incorporates FC's second image option, vector art by NovX. It's very different from Shokushu's rendered imagepack; it uses a paper doll approach to build slaves on the fly. It's presented here as a prototype for testing and feedback, not a final version. Since it's a work in progress, it's safe to hold off on suggesting more accessories and body parts for a while.



For the forseeable future, FC will support both art options, and it remains unnecessary to have files associated with any image option the player isn't using. I enjoy playing with both options; I find the style of Shokushu's renders appealing, and I'm excited by the potential of the mutability of NoX's approach. Shokushu has also supplied a set of seven new rendered images for the personal assistant's avatar.

This update also makes it possible to remove Fuckdolls from their suits and return them to normal sex slave status. I wouldn't mention such a trivial addition, except that many players requested this option in such a way that made it clear they thought I'd left it out intentionally. Nothing of the kind; I simply didn't get it written in time for 0.9.7. Unless I've explicitly stated here or in-game that an option isn't happening, it's on the table.

Saves from versions before 0.9.7 are incompatible, but 
0.6+ saves are eligible for New Game Plus. Latest hotfix is 0.9.8.1 (1500 February 14), save compatible.

0.9.8.1 download without art: Mega.

0.9.8 download with vector art only: Mega.
