Esoteric Update #200 - Like A Bucket Of Ice Water

Update time once more. Unfortunately, I had a pretty rough run-in with a cloud break today, and I feel like death, so excuse me if this is a bit on the brief side. At this point, despite taking a nap under a warm duvet, I still feel absolutely exhausted and feverish. Mostly, I'll be skipping out on preparing any screenshots, as I just don't have the energy to do that.

Anyway... here, have some lore:

Lore: Maladaptive Oneiromancy

And have an article too:

Voices – Part I – Finding The Right Voice

And for the update, well, I've managed to progress a good few things. There are even more clothing items in the game now. We did furs in a few contexts, and now we're prepared for other fur items if we want to include any in the future, which very well might be the case. This went towards clearing even more of the backlog.

I've also performed a lot of just behind-the-scenes project file organising. There were some interesting things in there, including some lore and writing that never got properly sorted out. So, as part of sorting some of that out, I've extended the number of short erotica available in-game to a round 50 pieces (five more than before). In general, I've started writing erotica again, so I'll see about pushing that to 60 soon.

I've also encountered the most hilarious bug, which involved the game progressing time by unreasonable amounts (like thousands to millions of years) and fixed that.

Of course, I did some work on the stuff I don't want to reveal just yet. I might have a few things I'm comfortable with sharing next week.

While I did start this by saying I'm feeling sick, I don't plan to take any kind of break right now. I just specifically feel ill right now. So I'll be fine if I rest a little bit.
