I was really looking forward to this update, and I was not disappointed! I love all the new Diane content as well as the book renting system. 


Here are a couple issues I found and also suggestions for future development:


- In the Hartow job guide under the construction job, it says "This job allows you to increase your strength and... who knows, if you work hard you may help finish new buildings to visit!" This gave me the impression that the VR World (the only area that's "Under construction") would be unlocked if I worked at the construction job enough. That doesn't seem to be the case unless I am missing something. This misunderstanding might be a me issue though. 

- In the cafe, the Extra Large option was not unlocked for any of the baristas until I had purchased the Large from every barista. In the previous version, the next size would be available on a particular barista immediately after purchasing the size before it. 

- Like I said before, I really enjoyed the Diane content. Perhaps in the future, you could add another max size for Diane, except where she is maxed out on strength rather than charm.


- In the affinity section, (though I could have very well missed it) I can't seem to find the images for the side characters in the Draining grounds. A lot of them had good transformations that I would like  to see in the image gallery. 


- The level 2 draining image for Diane isn't loading on my end. Also, you could add the image of normal sized Diane in pajamas to the gallery as well.

-Another thing that could be added to the image gallery are the images in the rented books.

-One final suggestion: Would it be possible to add a dedicated back button, maybe in the left column? You wouldn't have to add the  "I changed my mind"  button to  all  of the individual areas, and if the user mistakenly skips something, they  could press the back button to go to the previous scene. I only thought  of this because I mistakenly skipped one of the Diane  draining scenes, and I had  to wait for her to become max size again before I could go back. 


Thanks for keeping up with development!

Thank you for playing and your detailed report!

That line of the job guide is a subtle reference of a future update, I plan to make the job done in the construction site useful in order to unlock new buildings, for now I only have one new building in mind but I don't know when will I implement it!

Right now the VR World is unavailable and it doesn't depend on the construction, I should hide the option until I create that content.

I just checked, the Extra Large option had an error and it only unlocked if you took the Large drink with Cream, I will release a fix for that soon.

I'll think about that, Diane loves draining attributes so it may happen!

You are right, the Draining Grounds side characters don't have a gallery space yet, I'm thinking about a good way to count and show them, I'll probably add it in a future update.

I just fixed the broken image in Diane's gallery, and the image of her using the pajamas while smaller will be fixed soon too.

The rented books can be rented at will so I didn't have plans to add their images to the gallery, If I find that this is a big inconvenience for the players I may change my mind and add them too.

I deactivated the "undo" button because it makes every game slower (when it exists the game needs to make a temporal save at each action in order to remember a good amount of "game states"), I prefer to keep it deactivated.

Thank you again for the detailed comment, I'll release the fixes as soon as possible!

New update! Yeah!
