Not a lot in this prerelease, as we were mostly busy with technical work, post-release support and other such things, but we do have the new alternate Casual Earth Costume! You will need to develop Aura's Exhibitionism quite a bit in order to unlock it, but in return you can also dump some extra corruption into the mental change. (Except if you go really far, then Aura's natural resistance decreases and you can do it for 1 Corruption less)
The following scene also has some dialogue variations showing Aura having more reservations towards the proposed clothing and declaring that she would hate it for sure! But you know the drill. The scene also gives +1 Exhibitionism giving some more minor gameplay impact.
Beyond that, as mentioned, all technical work. I have introduced some utility for handling pictures in RPGMaker, making it a lot easier to make pseudo-animations like when giving head in a blowjob. In particular the issue here is in the multi-layered nature of the pictures which is handled annoyingly in RPGMaker since it doesn't have natural picture hierarchies - well it now because I added them!
I'm a bit worried the various refactorings may have blown something up, which is why I wanted to have the split between unstable and stable builds.
Finally, you can find some incomplete work from Trihan in the Options menu. Note that this has no effect yet! We are still in the process of refactoring our plugins so that they all work with translations! ...And whatever other road block may popup until we have conquered this project milestone.
For those interested in maybe helping out with the creation of translations, you can have a sneak peek on how they will be structured in the new "languages/" folder.
That's it for the week, next month will be a content development month for SKA where, among other things, I will be working on a new Arwin Maid Job event.
