Course of Temptation July Update Early Access (v0.5.1)

Early access to the July update is here! This update is mostly about extending the major relationships update and tying up some loose ends.

Over the next week in the leadup to public release, I'll continue to push things into this update so expect this changelog to expand. It's likely some of those changes will go live during the early access period. Any updates that aren't just routine bugfixes will be announced in the Discord, or you can just check back in on the early access itch page.

My main focus was on adding some more variety to events for ongoing relationships. Expect a few more random events to pop up depending on your relationships with others.

A couple new hangout types were added, and while you'll still schedule them with one NPC in the usual way, they're actually group hangouts. One is for your friend group and the other is for your polycule.

Not following your dom's rules now has consequences! As their anger builds at your disobedience, punishment scenes become unlocked, and after one of these plays out, their anger will dissipate. There are no long term consequences for this — some level of disobedience is often expected in the D/s dynamic.

Open relationships and polyamorous relationships have been slightly reworked to be more analogous to their real world equivalents, and the confusingly-named Non-Exclusive inclination is now called simply Open Relationships.

Contributors have also added a few new clothing items and a couple new events and event variations to this update. Thanks for your hard work!

Please find your link to early access just below these release notes. And as always, thank you for your support!
