v1.03
bug fixes
v1.02 Bugfix update
Improves how the decision around bottom surgery works, so people should be surprised that they've been locked into the surgery or locked out of the surgery less often.
Also, I fixed an issue with people who would betray Katie when not on the Nazarov romance path, or did not betray Katie while on the Nazarov romance path. This should be impossible, and now it is impossible. If you don't betray Katie while dating Nazarov, you automatically dump Nazarov. If you betray Katie while not dating Nazarov, you decide to become his girlfriend.
Fixed an issue with the Chad romance path where after using the mid-game skip you couldn't kiss him at the beach, locking you out of his romance. Also fixed an error where agreeing with him that you shouldn't get bottom surgery would actually lock you into bottom surgery. Now it correctly locks you out of it.
Fixed an issue where the ending where you're in a throuple with Todd and Susan but you don't get bottom surgery would assume that you did in fact get bottom surgery. I've added a new ending variant where you're together with Todd and Susan but you still have your original genitals.
Added two new achievements for getting maximum Bisexuality score and maximum Femininity score.
Some image fixes for broken images.
Lots of text fixes.
Added a small number of clothing images that were missing.

v1.01 bugfix
lots of bug fixes
v1.0
The game is now complete, and can be played from start to finish, right to its many epilogues.
The key inclusions in this update are (1) bottom surgery / sexual reassignment surgery, (2) conclusions to all sub-plots, (3) the grand finale to save your dad and complete the game, (4) epilogues reflecting what happens to all major (and most minor) characters based on your decisions.
V0.9.2
Bug fixes:
-You can no longer buy the Backless Evening Dress an infinite number of times. Just once, now.
-Several instances of the game referring to the wrong media (and therefore not displaying anything) have been fixed.
-Following the Cade romance from the Mid Game Jump no longer locks you out of his romance at the masquerade.
-You can no longer remove tattoos you don't even have.
-You can no longer talk to Chad about getting breast surgery when you've already had that surgery.
-You will no longer referred to as '$bossname' when using the Mid Game Jump. That variable has been appropriately defined now.
-Lots of other small issues (mostly relating to the Mid Game Jump) have been fixed!
-TONS of text errors fixed. Many thanks to my spelling and grammar police on Discord!
Changelog (same as the v0.9.0 changelog, but for the last bullet):
-Huge expansion of the main plot. This is the last big event, prior to the climax itself. Go on a weekend business trip with Nazarov, and use your charms to keep him distracted while Katie robs him blind. Or betray her. Up to you
-Ass surgery is now part of the game! Totally optional surgery, with three different options to choose from. Get the booty you want and deserve!
-Bottom surgery (sexual reassignment surgery) is on its way! This game takes this surgery pretty seriously - you don't just flip a switch and swap parts. So while the surgery itself isn't in v0.9 yet, you will have some scenes about it, and you'll need to talk to your lover (if you have one) about your choice. Some are more understanding than others...
-New prestige breast options. There are three to discover. They're not obvious to find. Each is locked behind a particular romance and certain choices. I wonder if you'll be able to find them.
-A new Mid Game Skip option, putting right in the middle of the game, around day 140. The old skip option is now called the Early Game Skip. The Mid Game Skip still needs to be tested a lot more. It probably won't fully break your game but it might mess a few things up. Let me know of the bugs as you find them.
-The mall stores are open for business! The new clothing store, Femme Fatalle, plays into the plot of this update and has outfits, underwear, and toys for sale! The gift store will have a lot more to offer in future updates.
-New scenes with Olivia, on both her matchmaking and corruption paths. On either path, you'll see that her story is nearly complete.
-New, repeatable content with Lexi, which will increase your weekly earning from her business.
-A few new repeatable university scenes.
-Keybindings! Stolen from Battle Quest - you can now press keys to advance scenes. Works really for skipping content you don't care to read!
-Slightly updated UI for some of the closets. Still tinkering with this.
-Lots of new achievements!
-Brand new ending! Fail to impress or distract Nazarov on your weekend away, and suffer accordingly...
V0.9.1
-Early in the game, you can now actually discover the Tapestry as normal, allowing you to continue working at the Cauldron as a waitress
-The Mid Game Skip no longer confuses Olivier for Chad
There is another bug I am aware of where you get an error when trying to buy any piercing. I have not yet been able to replicate this bug so it has not been fixed. Sorry!

Version 0.8.2
Eighth public release! (v0.7 saves are not compatible with the new single path, otherwise compatible)
Final new addition to the early game - the Single Path! Start the game from day 1, break up with Susan when the opportunity arises, and experience the world as a single guy - and then, later, a single girl! Some single path content can also be accessed on any path once you get path the masquerade. More content, more dates, more naughty texts will be added to this path in later updates!
Tons of new dates post-masquerade! You've committed to a relationship, you've bagged your partner (or partners!) - now it's time to enjoy it! Go out on fun dates on Friday night with your partner, whether than means dining in or flying to Paris for a romantic getaway. Nine different sets of dates depending on your relationship (Todd, Susan, Thruple, Chad, Olivier, Cade, Jack, Nazarov, and Katie)
New dreams post-masquerade! 20+ new dreams added to reflect the decisions you made in the game
New event with Lexi! Get physical online for your fans! You can now lose your virginity to Lexi - and if you've been too submissive to her so far, you won't have much of a say in the matter...
Display Options! Sidebar too crowded? Check out your computer for options to reduce the clutter!
A really fun new ending! Go on a date with a mysterious woman and get caught up in her adventurous life! Good luck finding this one.
New achievements and Hall of Fame paths!
Introducing the Cheat Room! Post-masquerade you're now able to switch your lover with a single button, allowing you to experience all of the dates and dreams without doing multiple playthroughs. This quality of life feature will likely be removed in the future, once the late-game skip is added.
v0.7.3
This update is about laying the groundwork for the late game events that will be built up over the next few updates (the 'final' few updates, you could say). Key additions to the game include: - A brand new disloyal path for Susan. Start the game from Day 1 to find out more. - A brand new visual inventory system! See what you're wearing on the sidebar! - Experience the 'post-masquerade' consequences at the Cauldron, gym, and at school!
As this update adds a new path to the early game and switches a few variables around, v0.6 saves are generally not compatible with version of the game.
Public Release v0.6.3
After a whole lot of work, v0.6.3 is here at last for the public to enjoy! Full change log below:
Massive expansion to the main story! Literal in-game weeks' worth of new content to explore.
The new main story content culminates in a huge masquerade and auction event. Your choices truly matter - the masquerade can end in six different ways based on the choices you make before and during the event!
Sick of the early game? Skip it! New 'mid game skip' function allows you to jump right into the game at day 60 (not recommended for new players)
The time has come to make a big romantic choice! To stay with Susan, or become Todd's girlfriend? Or neither? Or both? The choice is yours!
Bring your feminization score to 8 by undegoing facial feminization surgery! You have as many as 18 options to choose from, but some might be locked behind the choices you've made so far...
Lose your virginity (for a second time)! This time, as a trans woman!
Expansion to the Beach event from v0.5! More to do with Todd! You can invite a loyal Susan to the beach on her own for some girl-on-girl fun!
More to do for Todd and Susan at the gym!
New date with Lexi! Welcome to the runway!
New date with Jack! Your sugardaddy is getting possessive...
New content with Cade! The romance deepens as secrets are revealed...
A ton of new content for Olivia on both of her paths!
Two really fun scenes with Heather for those on the disloyal Susan path
A fun new ending, accessible at a femininity score of 8!
More achievements!
For those of you who have played v0.6 already, v0.6.3 has a few minor bug fixes. No new content from v0.6.0.
