Life of the Party promotional art, showing the shadows of two cats, a hyena, and two horses

This is a minor update, which doesn't yet carry with it any new story content, but a lot of minor tweaks to the story engine itself.

🕹️ UI Updates

Typography

  • Backgrounds use a subtle gradient
    • In vore passages, this gradient rotates and undulates!
  • Made the body text a little bigger
  • Commands use a right triangle arrow as a bullet
  • The Help sceen keys use fancy key graphics, inspired by Keyboard CSS
  • Passages now animate left and right as they fade in
  • Update to Twemoji v14.0 😀, so Male!Ren can use the 🫃 pregnant man emoji

The title screen

New achievements UI

  • The Achievements list now uses a emoji-rich table
  • Locked achievements tell you a slight hint about where to look.

⛔ Content Warnings

It's important that readers can make an informed decision about the content they choose to read. Out of ignorance, I've made mistakes on this in the past. I've made an effort to improve and standarize the use of Content Warnings within the story text.

  • Reinstated a lot of messages I removed previously
  • As a convention:
    • Content warnings below or inside the commands list refer to upcoming content.
    • Content warnings at the top of a passage refer to the current passage.

Content warning: Accidental digestion. Casual vore. Girl with penis. Masturbation. Revoked consent. Unwilling digestion. Willing prey.

Hints

  • Some commands give hints about where a path will lead.

Go outside. (Smells like… hyena?) Go to the bathroom. (Smells like… bear.) Go to the garage. (Smells like… fox.)

Behind the scenes

  • The order of passages in "Dance a little" (the living room scene) is now completely deterministic, which should hopefully be a little less confusing.
  • Minor stability tweaks to the engine
  • Twemoji graphics now get loaded behind the scenes when you're not looking, which should make the reading experience much smoother.

Full Changelog: v0.7.0c...v0.7.5d
