Dev Notes

• The first phase of Chapter Two\'s conclusion is here! This one is for people with a naga daughter, or an empowered lair faction, in one of their playthroughs. If you dont have either of those, you might want to wait for our next instalment. But theres a bunch of other cool stuff in this update, so maybe its a good time to start a new playthrough?

• We are collaborating with Cumkeys on https://store.steampowered.com/app/3989290/The_Party_Mascot/\"" style="color:#bb86fc;text-decoration:none;">The Party Mascot - a fully animated visual novel, which will be released after Ravager is complete.

• I have been working a lot of nights getting this ready - so, once I know the build is stable, Im gonna take a couple of weeks off. The next monthly update will arrive as normal, but itll be a little more modest than usual.

  [/*]

• MVP of a major update is always tricky to pick out; everyone worked really hard on this one. Special mentions to Undoodle for having made three(!) new pieces of splash art and two hundred(!!) sprite enhancements - as well as Dracomancien for his ardent bug hunting, all the way up to 5am on the night before release.
