SOULCOOM™ 0.7.17

Hey everyone,

We’ve been deep in the trenches—crushing bugs, refining mechanics, and laying the groundwork for a real (late) June launch. There’s a lot to cover, here’s the breakdown:

🔥 New Sex Scenes & Minigame

• A new sex scenes have been added, expanding our fantasy physics roster.
• New Sex Minigame: Pussy Painter — Use your mouse to interactively play with labia in a physics-based rhythm, tracking arousal by clitoral growth. Supporters can preview early designs now.

🧠 Dialogue Battle Expansion

• Dialogue Battle Sprites: Each of the 8 emotions (Zeal, Joy, Trust, etc.) now has reactive sprites across 3 valence levels—including rare 4th level ahegao expressions (loss of composure). My plans for next month are to expand those further to visually track the effectiveness and reaction of your replies better.

🪄  New Abilities:

• Bean Zap – Use your Fate powers to send a targeted jolt of telepathic stimulation directly to your opponent’s genitals. Depending on their resistance, the result may include shock, submission, or sudden composure loss. Results may vary!
• Cock o’ Clock – Reverse time briefly to retry the last dialogue reply. Limited uses per battle. Perfect for correcting poor choices or experimenting with different outcomes.
• Possession – (Work-in-progress) Swap consciousness with another character mid-battle. Unlocks alternate dialogue trees, new move sets, and relationship impacts. Some moveset abilties will require meeting certain purification or corruption thresholds to execute.

☠️ New Status Effects

• Depression – When your Mana runs dry, the world becomes dull and desaturated. NPCs stop speaking, interactions are locked, and your presence weakens. Recover by drinking water or sleeping.
• Spaghetti Pockets – Run out of Mana mid-conversation and suffer a comedic social breakdown. Imaginary pasta spills from your pockets all over the Gamestop floor, cutting off all dialogue due to embarrassment. Temporary, but disruptive.
• ??? – A hidden status effect currently previewable by supporters. Tied to survival mechanics and managing your mana.

🔊 Sound Design Overhaul

Added over 9000 SFX (okay, ~500+), including moans, grunts, groans, affirming hmm's, ahmms, ahems, UwU's, angry screams, shocking gasps, sneezes and other reactive audio feedback during dialogue battles. Every correct or incorrect will have an audio cue based on your reply and the reaction from the NPC.

🧹 Bug Squashing & Optimization

Focused cleanup at Creamveil Estate: game-breaking bugs, visual clutter, and code messes are gone. Game is smoother and ready for more feature integration.

💾 Save & Continue

Long-requested and now implemented—your progress is finally saved. There's finally enough gameplay to warrant that; short as it is, for now.

🌐 Server Issues

We're aware of ongoing connection issues with Patreon’s token system. If you've had trouble subscribing or connecting late in the month, please reach out—we’ll make it right.

💸 Funding Update

After six years of self-funding, our reserves have officially run dry. We’re shifting to make the game publicly available, with future growth driven by community support and momentum from Steam.
