v0.26.0/v0.27.0 Updates

Evening all, it's monthly update time! v0.26.0 is now up at the public page, and v0.27.0 is now available for patrons! This update finishes up the Tier 3 ship functionality with one more new ship, although I do have some additional art assets waiting to get in. I've also started on the very early stages of the game's pregnancy system, which will also be my main focus for the coming month. This system will require having a Tier 3+ ship unlocked, so get to completing some missions if you're not already there! You can check out the Patreon post here for more info, and the patch notes are below:

v0.25.0/v0.26.0 Updates, and a Discount!

Evening all, it's monthly update time, but first off, it's also an anniversary! In celebration of the third anniversary of the store launch of Carnal Coup - Overseer's Edition, I've now permantly discounted the game, and it's also on sale for the next two weeks! You can find it as usual on Steam and itch.io!

As for Carnal Voyages, v0.25.0 is now up for the public, and v0.26.0 is out for patrons. The latest release finishes out the Seeder faction plotlines with some smut, and tosses in a special 'reward' scene from the Admiral when you report your progress. With the Seeders done I'll next be focusing on functionality for a bit, starting with the development of the next tier of ship classes. For more info you can check out the Patreon link here, and the patch notes are below:

v0.25.1 Supporter Release

Hey all, it's mid-month update time! This update kicks off the Seeder finale arc with two scenes, although the finale scene is still in-progress and didn't quite make it for this update. That will be my focus for the next update, along with returning to the Figura system for a little reward from the Admiral, as thanks for completing the first two factions of the game. You can check out the Patreon post here for more info, and the patch notes are below:

Note: If Sage Lantana's scene was completed in v0.25.0, an extra 20 hours may need to tick over.

v0.24.0/v0.25.0 Updates

Evening all, it's monthly update time! v0.24.0 is now up for free at the usual page, and v0.25.0 is now out for patrons. This update includes a new Harian CG (perhaps the last, now that their arcs are complete) and two new Sage Lantana scenes, including a rather smutty back-to-school encounter. All that's left now for Seeders is the faction takeover arc, which I'm aiming to have done by the next update. For more info you can check out the Patreon post here, and the patch notes are below:

v0.24.1 Update

Evening all, it's mid-month update time! This one's a simple one, with two new Seeder scenes, including the climax to the 'civilian' plotline. The rest of the month will focus on finishing up Sage Lantana's plotline, including the smutty climax, before leading into the Seeder system wrapup.

Aside from game updates though, there's also a Patreon update to let folks know about. Due to changes to qualify for the Apple app, in November Patreon will be shifting all projects on 'pay per calendar month' billing to 'pay per 30 days' billing. Apple app users will also be getting charged 30% more.

My recommendation: don't use the Apple app.

v0.24.1 Change Log

Evening all, it's a new month with new updates! v0.23.0 is now up at the usual page, and v0.24.0 is now out for patrons! This update focuses almost entirely on adding in the rest of the new chain duty assignments, with 34 new assignments added in three systems. There was also a bit of bugfixing, however for the next month I'll be focusing entirely on wrapping up the Seeder plotlines.

Also, the species selection poll this month wrapped up, with the winners being the insectoid Roth (for the returning species) and the Space Slimes (for the new entries). Thanks to everyone who voted!
