v0.23.1 Update and Species Poll

Hey all, it's mid-month update time! This update features one new story scene, but the primary focus has been on a new type of duty assignment: chain duties. These assignments tell mini-story arcs entirely through duties, and four sets (21 duties in all) have been added in this update. There's still six more sets left to come though, and that will be my primary focus for the rest of the month.

There's also a poll running currently for Liberator+ patrons to choose the next two factions to be added to the game! I'll be adding in one returning species from Carnal Coup and one new faction, the insectoid Roth currently have a strong lead for the returning slot, but the slime/robot competition for the newcomers is still close!

You can check out the Patreon post here for more info, and the patch notes are below:

Updates, and Carnal Coup Summer Sale!

Evening all, it's another monthly update! v0.22.0 is now up at the usual public page, and v0.23.0 is now out for patrons. This update focuses on the Schen, including the ability to recruit Gigi to your ship crew. This next month I'll be returning focus to the Seeders until I finish them up, although I'll also be starting a poll in the next week or so to select the next two factions to add, so I can get the artists started on assets for those. Keep an eye out if you want your vote heard!
