Time sure flies huh? Today Sapphire Safari turns 3 years old! What an absolutely crazy ride it has been so far. The team is still hard at work building the dream game, and this year alone has been a massive step forward for the game! As a birthday gift to you all, Sapphire Safari will be 50% off for the next 2 weeks! This will be your last chance to grab the game at this price since we won’t be dropping so low ever again! Also, today marks the day that v022c has been released, which is most definitely the patch everyone has been wanting for so very very long.
First, let’s quickly go over what's new in v022c!
Sapphire Island just got a whole lot more dangerous. This entire patch had one major focus, make predators as threatening as we could. This is a very big step for the game, as now Prey and Predator classification actually has meaning.
Prey will fluff around the island, being cute, hanging out, and interacting with each other. You’ll see them making sweet plaps, and being cute while being lewd. Predators are much more elusive, they will sometimes spawn thirsty and being to hunt down Prey that tickles their fancy, stalking them through bushes, until they find the perfect time to pounce. Capturing their target in a bundle of lust, using them however they want, and discarding them when they are done.
Documenting this event will be very tricky as if the player is spotted at any point during, they will now become the target of their hunt. And yes, you’ll get stuffed and grinded upon without mercy. If captured players will be used over and over until the next day, waking up sore and covered in cum. Sensitive photography equipment will break and any photos held in temporary storage will be lost.
Predators are also extremely dangerous outside of hunting mode. If the player is spotted by a Predator, they will instantly desire the exciting new creature, chasing until you manage to elude them or get caught.
We have also activated the new Prev Plant on the island as well, these stationary flowers will reach out and grab anyone close enough. Predator, Prey, Photographer. The flower does not care. Much like the Predator capture, this will result in a failure state. So do be careful.
To help add the correct feeling to the game, the AI around predators and reactions has been drastically updated. Prey will flee if they spot you, or if you trigger any noises. Predators will try to find the source of sounds or alerts. Prey will be cautious of Predators walking around outside of hunt mode. And reaction speeds in general have been sped up unless they are pleasuring themselves.
We goofed in the last patch, leaving in old Tutorial Popups that were no longer relevant to the systems inside the game. In this patch, we over-corrected this and built all new tutorials explaining new systems, and how scoring works, and improved the look and feel of the tutorials in general!
Changelog v022c
This patch was massive for us, and now our focus turns to Familiarity. The last bastion of open-world sex mechanics left to build in Sapphire Safari. Here is a quick sneak peek at some of the “modeling” poses higher familiarity species will jump into when you’re spotted!
We are also in the middle of overhauling the introduction sequence to the game (where you select your character) and making a CGI Trailer to show off the game in a better light. We realize up until this point we have had zero gameplay trailer or anything of the sort, and that is coming, we just need to steamroll these last mechanics before we focus on that.
Happy birthday to Sapphire Safari once more, and we hope you all enjoy the new patch!
