Engine Work

Due to the fact that FS recently overtaxed the Inform engine once more, until we thankfully got a fix from the nice developers over there, the decision has been made to port FS to a new platform. Efforts have been started to put together a new version in the more timely engine Godot. For the foreseeable future, FS will still run in Inform and additional updates are coming out for that, but we've got people working on something new and shiny at the same time.

Updates

Bastet: The proud lioness (available through Nermine's jackalman questline) posed for some pictures, allowing you to see just how see-through her dress really is, and giving a very nice view when you take it off her. [Wahn]
Blanche: The white wolfess of the Grey Abbey Library has posed for some sexy pictures, in the nude and in various stages of her pregnancy. [Wahn]
Cock Cannon: The scenes for the cock cannon's victory over the player have been reworked, giving you a much more detailed experience of what it means to be defeated by a giant walking cock. It should be a fun time for enjoyers of cockvore. [Wahn]
Diavoborg: Added a few scenes to support a small quest for external genitalia for Vuukzasqig. Additionally, the behemoth has received a few more dialogue options. [Gherod]
Drelgoth: Your truest demonic lover by no mistake and all purpose may now feel confident enough to dominate you further during his scenes. He assures you this is what you need. Three variants in total for each of his scenes have been added, which may trigger after having had sex with him after several times. [Gherod]
Event Code Update: We're in the progress of updating to new and improved code for events, which will now prioritize new story events over repeat scenes. This applies mainly to the Grey Abbey Library, where some events that were previously only firing when navigating from outside are now also up for being encountered if you just walk into the Grey Abbey Library room. Further progress in updating old events to the new system to come in the future. [Wahn]
Fang: Female Beta Fang and Confident Sven may now get to know each other. You may come across them in the Courtyard and have the option of giving them freedom with exploring their attraction (you can still join in), telling them that they may only do so with your involvement, or denying them sexual contact with each other. [Prometheus]
Kal Ren: Loss route! Oral, Anal, and Cock Smothering(hyper, requires the kinky feat). Scenes are randomized because he doesn't respect you enough to let you choose! [Voidsnaps]
Kerry and Shaw: The minotaur and his former superior from "Dangerous Load" have been expanded. To access the new content, watch as Kerry violates Shaw, then follow them to their new home. [Voidsnaps]
Milk & Cum: Various items of the milk & cum variety have been added to the game, meaning that you can now create additional types of items when milking yourself in the added infections. [Voidsnaps]
Ranfer: If you bring your feline bodyguard with you and defeat a werewolf brute, you may now enjoy an additional way to have fun with both at the same time. You can now also talk to him to find out his creatures of interest, which is basically a way to let the player know which encounters he might have scenes with. [Gherod]
Ryan: Another large wave of content for Ryan. His sex scenes have been reworked to add more detail and fix mistakes. His beach date has a new ending for fem and neuter players and has also been edited to add detail. The beautiful fennec’s pregnancy content is also complete and includes a new sex scene for players who breed Ryan enough. [Fuxi]
Snapjaw: There is a... Rather enormous sharkman at the Snapjaw Beach Camp. And yes, the camp is even named after him. Who is he? Maybe someone whose good side you may wish to keep yourself on. He comes with plenty of dialogue and a few scenes. [Gherod]
Squire: The knightly squires have gained some new artwork to show off their bodies. So far, you can check out the fully dressed and naked versions in the existing old scenes, but future updates in coming weeks/months will further expand on the squires to make use of more artwork variants. [Wahn]
Tobias: Newly expanded through commission. Those that have already met him can meet him again in the east parking lot. Saying goodbye or going home with him opens up his home to the NORTH (And then north east from the overgrown lot) of the EAST smith haven parking lot. Bad end available for those that are fully canine (can mix and match but all parts must be canine) and 2 anal sex scenes available. One for your first time with him, and another if you accept the collar and meet him at his trailer after a certain amount of time while wearing it. (Voidsnaps)
Velos: The muse scene between Velos and Nermine has been updated to reflect both characters a bit better. [Wahn]
Vial Inventory: The way vials work has been rebuilt, which should make the vial inventory less laggy and more comfortable to use. For example, vials are now shown as a continuous list, taking up much less screenspace. [Wahn]
Vincent: You can now save the fox captive of Mul and his brothers from the event "Orc Raid" in the warehouse district, with Vincent poentially becoming an NPC to be brought into the library. There are various ways the expanded Orc Raid encounter can go, depending on if your character is an orc himself or not. The orc option has a newly reworked and expanded sex scene, plus further choices in how you want to act, as does the non-orc scene. If brought to the library, you can talk through a few options to get to know Vincent, and also have more oral fun with him going down on you (with again, a special variant for orcs). More fun to come for Vincent in the future. [Wahn]
Vuukzasqig: Upon being brought to Red Rock Lair, the formerly Wyvern Patriarch can now receive a full set of external genitalia, together with an extra art asset to show it off! The quest to do so involves a few scenes with Diavoborg. [Gherod]
Xerxes: You can now feed your devoted human dog orc pills, enabling the possibility of impregnating him through anal sex. After that, you (or others that fuck him), can put some sons in his belly. [Wahn]

Bugfixes & Balance Patches

Blanche: Relocation to the library should now properly conclude.
Fang: Typo Fix
Ryan: Properly coded as an NPC.
Several dozen typo fixes for various files. Nothing large enough to mention the files by name. You should find that scenes misgender your character less often.(Less runaway vaginas...)
Stat Blocks: Stat Blocks for characters in Stripes' folder.
Werewolf Brute: Should now properly scale the player's scale value size to a 4, up from 3.

Upcoming/In the Works

These are projects and commissions that our writers are committed to, something for you to look forward for the future.

Carl: The trusty soldier dog is going to get a content upgrade to continue the soldier squad gritty reboot. [Wahn]
Gina: The hyena event is getting an update, complete with the gang's recruiter Gina. You can expect to be able to hold a proper conversation with her, with a talk menu and all. [Gherod]
Kal' Ren: Further expansion of Kal'Ren's content, including the loss route. [Voidsnaps]
Fang: The ability to make Alpha Fang permanently hyper-fied after he eats the vials. Will require access to Dr. Matt. [Prometheus]
J'Reth: Find out more about J'Reth's KnK character as well as more about the rest of the party. [Prometheus]
Lux & Umbra: Development of their sex scenes [Prometheus]

Commission Opportunities

Just a few examples of possible commissions that could be added to the game. Other options are available and can be discussed, be it expansions of existing content or all new additions.

Artwork Addition - Gabriel: The handsome angel you can make into your personal slut posed for a high quality headshot, showing off his pretty face and collar. Got a nice piece of artwork ready for immediate addition to the game. [Wahn]
Fallen King - World Interactions: More ways to make use of your symbiotic companion during your adventures, including scenes with other encounters. [Gherod]
Honey I'm home: A hive full of hunky wasps looking for a new queen(Or king, if he can lay eggs!). [Voidsnaps]
Sascha (Free Running Cat): Pinup artwork can be commissioned. Further events with a thrillseeking theme. [Voidsnaps]
Urik/Gregory: The half-wyvern transformed soldier that you and Urik can save from the wyvern nesting tree so far is still playing sleeping beauty. His content could be expanded to wake him up, or not, or both one after the other. This would allow for somnophiliac scenes, as well as seeing how the man reacts to not being quite human anymore, and finding himself faced with a huge orc and the player character when he wakes up. [Wahn]
