Hey, thank you so much for your kind words <3
The 0.5 Update took so long because i refactored some code for futureproofing and I added a lot of content incliding 5 animated scenes which took a while. In the future updates will be a bit smaller and more regular. (I'm hoping to get a version out every month)
I work full time and have a lot to do when I'm off work, I try to get as much development time in as possible, thank you for understanding x)
I would love to add clothing customization but with the scenes as they are right now it would require a lot of effort, but I learned a lot from this project and have a system planned out that I could use in a future project.
Currently the lake is only for stamina recovery and the tentacles scene, but I will use this location in later updates for more :)
