v0.20.1 Supporter Update

Hey all, it's time for the mid-month update! This update features a new portrait set for the Schen leader NPC, and scenes for both the Happee and Harian leaders. The direction I'm going with for the Happee leader plotline is...perhaps a bit unsubtle for me, and is related to a short rant I've given on the Patreon post in regards to recent crackdowns on NSFW content on numerous sites. I'll be moving on with the Harian leader for the rest of the month though, and hopefully bringing that plotline to a close in the near future. Check out the post for more info, and the patch notes are below:

  • Second Happee Leader scene added to the Mining Platform, unlocked 20 hours after the first scene. Added to replay mode. Note: Due to a bug, if the first scene was previously played 20 additional hours will need to pass for the scene to unlock. Note: Portrait is a placeholder.

v0.19.0/v0.20.0 Updates

Evening all, it's another new month! v0.19.0 is now up for free at the usual page, and v0.20.0 is now out for supporters! This update kicks off a few more Happee Co plotlines, and also adds in a new QoL improvement which I hope will come in handy - map markers for when new plotline scenes are available! I have a bit more in-progress Happee Co writing to finish off for the next update, but after that I plan to return to the Harians. The Harian plotlines are almost complete, which means it's about time to get started on the process for what happens when a player 'completes' a system. I'll likely have more on that in the next update post or two. Til then, the patch notes are below, and you can check out the Patreon post here for more info!


v0.20.0 Change Log

Game Functions:

  • Scene Alert markers have been added to System and Galaxy Maps:
    • Markers will appear next to a System Map location if a new scene in an ongoing plotline is available at that location.
    • Markers will appear next to a System location on the Galaxy Map if any location in that system has an available scene.
    • Markers will not appear for: tutorial scenes, plotlines which have not yet been started, or one-off repeatable scenes.

Scene Content:

  • Happee Civilian scene added to Megastructure Mall. Added to replay mode.
  • First Happee Leader scene added to Mining Platform, unlocked after the first Specialist scene. Added to replay mode.

Evening all, here to note that v0.19.1 is now up for patrons, and the Overseer's Edition of Carnal Coup is now on sale on both Steam and itch! This is part of the Spring Sales, but primarily I'd like to celebrate the launch of Steam's new privacy options, allowing you to hide your porn games from your friends.

As for this update, there's a number of new scenes and features covering the Schen and Happee factions, including new portrait artwork for the Schen Specialist NPC, Dr. 'Gigi'! Gaining DTF Happee recruits is also now a possibility, with all of the functionality groundwork laid to support the space goblins. For more info, you can check out the Patreon post here, or the patch notes below:

  • Functionality to support Happee portraits and DTF recruits - DTF uniform art assets, facial portraits, NPC generation updates.

v0.18.0/v0.19.0 Releases

Hey all, it's monthly update time! v0.18.0 is now up for the public, and v0.19.0's been released for Patrons! This cycle focused on kicking off some of the reptilian Schen-based plotlines, particularly to introduce the Specialist and Leader NPCs for these factions. Portrait work for the new characters is currently underway, although they'll be getting placeholder portraits for the moment. Due to the shorter month I also had to leave some placeholder content in place for one of the new scenes, but I'll be filling that in soon enough with some new kink-trait-based scene branches.

It's mid-month update time, and we've got some new scenes tonight - some of them extra spicy! This update finishes off the main 'Harian civilians' plotline, although it will of course be revisited as the Harian system is wrapped up, and later on with the eventual epilogues.
