------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Changelog:

Actually playable now, maybe:

- Liminal Lust might launch for people who previously reported the game wasn’t launching for them. Maybe. Not sure. Lemme know.

UI Visuals:

- The starting menu uses 1 of 4 colorful themes instead of always being purple.

- Added an additional subtle menu background that has 11 variations.

- Improved the visuals of the version label in the bottom right of the menu.

- The scrolling background on the right side of the menu screen now uses 1 of 10 new textures.

- Portal warp screens are now procedurally randomized, significantly increasing visual variety. (Went up from 1 to… technically 1600. Yup.)

- The dialogue box now displays various art depending on who is talking. (Karmall, Pruzaieuv, Rananya, Perilisa or the intercom)

- There’s now a subtle letterbox effect during dialogue options.

Game Options:

- Added an option to disable the new dialogue box art when characters are speaking. (Game settings still reset when the game is exited because I’m REALLY good at making games.)

Karmall Sex Content:

- Standard titfuck scene offers the option “Blow your load“ and unlocks a new temptation from Karmall.

Karmall Temptation:

- Her titfuck temptation dialogue got touched up to reference you having done her standard titfuck scene.

- If you give into her titfuck temptation, you’ll be taken straight into her titfuck scene rather than her services menu but at a massive discount.

Rananya:

- Spiced up his Godspeak lines in his “coolest ability“ scene.

Pruzaieuv:

- Added a shaking animation to all of her existing dialogue.

- Added an extra server approach scene. It’s a 50% chance of either getting her old server scene or this new one.

Quality of Life:

- Added a subtitle to the preference options in the new game screen.

- Clarified the explanation for the autosave icon in the New Game screen.

- Starting a new game now lets you disable UI-based anomalies like "Slow Camera" and "Room Names"

- The timing for the save icon appearing when the game saves data has been improved.

- Trees and computer screens now become transparent when the player is behind them.

- If you ask a second character for their services after previously asking another character, that first character will now go back to their original spawn position instead of getting deleted.

- The pause menu can no longer be activated during a portal warp.

- The pause menu can be activated with right mouse click.

- Dialogue buttons can be navigated using the keyboard.

- Added a glowing outline to Perilisa's face during one of the Lights Out anomaly events.

- The HUD now plays sounds when it's hijacked by the Lights Out anomaly.

- Added HUD feedback for when you’re holding down spacebar in the Backrooms.

- When using a portal, the camera will move towards your destination.

Easter Eggs:

- If you have met Pruzaieuv then access the pause menu and hover your cursor over the “Yes“ button for returning to the menu or quitting the game, a silly thing will eventually happen.

- Expanded the OOB Easter egg to feel more rewarding.

- Perilisa will sometimes show up in the warp screen to say hi.

- Added a reference to an old meme somewhere in the Backrooms. Good luck finding it.

Misc:

- Added 10 new ads. 3 of which are exclusive to warp screens.

- Upgraded engine to Godot 4.4.

- Engine Output now tells you which NPC spawned in what area.

Fixes:

- Entering and exiting the pause menu upon loading a save will no longer prevent the greeting message from fading away.

- Added missing references to Karmall speaking when you tell her you’re leaving while she’s in the garden and server.

- Added missing references to Pruzaieuv speaking in her sexual services intro.

- The interact popup no longer gets moved up by 20 pixels every single time you fuck a character.

- Fixed the portal locator text becoming invisible when using a portal during the Lights Out anomaly while the portal locator is blinking.

- Fixed portal rooms being empty if they’re approached from other directions that aren’t their hallways. (I finally discovered OnScreenNotifiers)

- Fixed the tape reel and portals playing sounds while you’re in the Backrooms map.

- Adjusted Pruzaieuv’s “no nanites“ scene.

- Fixed some typos.
