Dev Log #1 – Lactation Mechanics Incoming!

What does that mean?

After establishing the gestation mechanic in the first scenes — where the protagonist incubates biotech pods to solve puzzles — the next phase adds another body-integrated system: milk production as food storage.

During your escape attempt, you'll need to traverse harsh environments (like deserts, underground ruins, and alien zones). Unfortunately, biotech fruit and gooey alien snacks don’t last long… unless converted into something more stable.

That’s where our girl’s modified physiology comes in.

How it works (in-game):

  • Consume organic material → energy is converted into nutrient-rich milk.

  • Store it internally.

  • Use it as portable food between zones or to feed certain alien lifeforms/organic machines.

  • May also be used in puzzle-solving… or stranger interactions later on.

And of course, your onboard AI will have plenty to say about all of this. (Mostly sarcastic. Occasionally concerned.)

Why this?

Because it fits perfectly with the themes of the game:
body-mod survival, grotesque biotech, and weird-but-logical mechanics.
And, let’s be honest, it’s a unique way to handle inventory and stamina without breaking immersion.

Stay tuned — next release will feature this mechanic in action. As always, your feedback keeps this fleshy ship flying!

Thanks for the support!
