Patreon Reopening!

Hey all! It's been more than a year since our last patrons-only game release, but we're back online with Carnal Voyages v0.2.0! Although there's regrettably little in terms of playable content in this release, as you'll note from the length of the patch notes, there was quite a bit of work done since the public alpha release. And fortunately most of the foundation work is now done, and we'll have the first real story updates in the next release in a few weeks. 

You can find more info at the Patreon post here, but I'd also like to note that Carnal Coup is now on sale on both Steam and itch.io in celebration! Enjoy!

v0.2.0 Change Log

Game Functions:

Maps:

• Added Galaxy Map and Harman System Map, with ability to travel from one system to another.
• Map travel has been sped up, this may be revised back down when faster ships are added.
• 'Heat' system has been added when passing time in hostile systems. Heat is decremented when passing time on the galaxy map or in the Figura system. There is currently no consequence for maxing out your heat.

Watch Station:

• Added ability to change your crew gender preferences post-intro.
• Added ability to transfer current crew members for requisitions and requisition credits.
• Added ability to upgrade, downgrade, and spend requisition credits, and to spend requisitions.
• The Intro sex scene featuring the Admiral's secretary can now be replayed from the Watch Station docks.
• The game will now begin tracking time starting at the conclusion of the tutorial. Time will pass during travel, additionally a placeholder function has been added to the Watch Station docks to pass 10 hours. This will be removed once more activities to 'burn the clock' have been implemented. Note: resources may be capped or removed in a future update, so don't go wild on spamming daily updates.

Other:

• Added additional NPC Personality Traits: Rock, Flighty, Partier, Studious, Chill, Hothead, Bold, Cautious. (Note: will only appear on newly generated NPCs)
• Added additional rooms and station functionality to the ship, which can be used after the Introduction. New ship stations can provide speed and damage bonuses, and produce regular resources. Stations will provide extra bonuses depending on the stats, traits, and rank of assigned crewmembers.
• Daily reports will be posted at the conclusion of each day, detailing the activities performed by crewmembers who have been assigned to ship stations that day.
• The Crew Roster will now be accessible following the tutorial. The roster can be filtered in a number of ways, and selecting crewmembers will bring up their individual profiles. Viewing their personal traits will bring up the option to seduce the crewmember - note that this is temporary functionality and will become much more complicated to pull off in the future.
• Rank insignia images have been added to crew face portraits in various locations.
• A confirmation has been added when overwriting save files.
• Added functionality to play certain scenes when at certain locations.
