Hello again!
First of all, I need to stress that this is still a preview release, as the addition of the new sex pace mechanic is taking a long time for me to get done. I'm not going to make a 'full' release until I'm happy that all of the sex scenes in the game are updated and working with the new sex pace mechanics. I anticipate that this will take me another two weeks. I will still be releasing previews each Friday, but I won't be putting these releases up anywhere other than here on the blog, as I feel that they'll be too buggy to call a 'full' release.
As to the new content in this preview version, the only sex positions that have been updated with the new 'sex pace' mechanic are the 'Standing' and 'Back-to-wall' positions. Most of this last week was spent getting the engine ready for me to transfer the old actions into the new format, so I didn't have much time in which to add much new content.
I also want to talk a little more about this new sex pace mechanic. Before adding this mechanic, all sex actions just had one variation. If you chose to 'Grope breasts', the resulting description would be randomly chosen out of four possibilities, and would always have those same four possibilities, no matter how you were treating your partner. Now, instead of that, I'm having to write variations for the sex-paces: dom-rough, dom-normal, dom-gentle, sub-normal, and sub-eager (sub-resisting can't grope breasts). For each of these, the descriptions need to reflect the current pace, so there's a huge amount of variation needed for these new mechanics.
As a result, I feel as though keeping all 6 of these sex paces is too much work for me to do right now. I think I'm going to combine the dom-normal and dom-gentle paces, as well as the sub-normal and sub-eager ones. This will make it far easier for me to get all these new sex actions added, and I fear that if I don't do this, the sex pace mechanic will take me far too long to get finished. I can always return to this in the future and add more paces if there's a high demand for them, but, starting tomorrow, I'm only going to be writing actions for the dom-rough, dom-normal, sub-resisting, and sub-normal paces.
Oh, and as a little extra thing this week, I spent some free time over the last two evenings writing a little E3 parody story in Twine. This didn't take any development time away from Lilith's Throne, and I was using it as an opportunity to practice my writing.

This is a preview release, and is just a snapshot of my current progress! It 100% contains a lot of bugs and half-finished content!!!
Version 0.1.79P2 patch notes:
- Added: Sexual orientations for NPCs. I'm going to be retconning the 'everyone is bisexual' aspect of the game's lore. (The player character doesn't have a defined orientation, as that's defined by however you want to play.)
- Added: Non-consensual content in sex scenes. This option must be manually enabled in the options menu (or at character creation), and the content will then be available in non-consensual sex scenes (by using 'resist' actions).
- Added: 'Cum addict' and 'Cum stud' fetishes to replace the old 'cum' fetish.
- Added: 'Cross dressing' fetish.
- Added: 'Seeder' and 'Broodmother' fetishes. (Breeder derived fetish now requires all four of the pregnancy-related fetishes to unlock.)
- Improved the writing for random attacker's scenes in Dominion's alleyways. (They now appropriately react after getting pregnant if they have a pregnancy fetish.)
- You can now simultaneously perform two actions which require fingers. (You do have two hands after all...) I am aware that lubrication application is shared between both hands, but I might leave this as it is, as otherwise it would require far too many sex actions to manage the lubrication types properly.
- Penetration effects now provide a flat amount of arousal per turn, instead of modifying sex actions' arousal increases.
- Partners now cannot remove your clothing by default when you're the dom. (You have to give them permission.)
- Added initial penetration descriptions.
- Expanded and improved player dirty talk text.
- These expanded options are only used in 'Standing' and 'Back-to-wall' positions at the moment:
- Expanded: Kissing actions. (Kissing now counts as a penetrative action, inserting a tongue into a mouth orifice.)
- Expanded: Nipple fingering and breast interaction actions. (Both for player and partner.)
- Expanded: Vaginal fingering actions. (Both for player and partner.)
- Expanded: Vaginal sex actions. (Both for player and partner.)
- NPCs will no longer penetrate the player if they're the sub in non-consensual sex. (They're still able to penetrate themselves.)
- NPCs have been taught how to properly remove clothing in sex.
- NPCs won't use anal actions if they don't have the anal fetish.
- NPCs won't initiate any vaginal penetration if they are a pure virgin. (They'll still use your vagina, just not theirs.)
- NPCs will now decide to move into one of their preferred positions during sex.
- Improved NPCs 'preferred positions' method.
- Improved text colour highlights for different description types in sex.
- Wolf-morphs now have wolf tongues (instead of dog tongues).
- Expanded the 'moan', 'moans', and 'moaning' commands in the parser to return suitable noises for if the character is resisting in sex.
- Added lilac colour for harpy feathers.
- Fixed bug in parser that was causing NPC descriptions to be parsed instead of the player's.
- Fixed bug where pregnancy possibilities from human males would prevent pregnancy stats page from opening.
- Fixed incorrect title being displayed after removing clothing during sex.
- Fixed bugs in sex where 'no_clothing_covering_x' would be returned.
- Fixed a lot of minor parsing bugs and typos.
- Fixed bug in sex where arousal wasn't being calculated properly (resulting in incorrect triggering of mutual orgasms).
P.S. There is a lot of half-finished content in this version!
