Goals for 0.1.99

Hello again! It's time for another post in which I set out my goals for the next version! :3

So, this should be the last version in which I'm concentrating most of my time on engine work! I just need to finish off the final part of the sex update (adding lust & stamina to sex), as well as fixing the final bugs in multiple-partner sex, and then I'll move on to the combat and stats update. I'll also add in some content for Nyan, as well as finishing off the addictive/psychoactive/alcoholic fluids mechanics.

As always, there is the possibility that some of these goals might run into 0.2.0, but the vast majority of the work should be finished for the full release on 9th February. I'll then move on to creating an easy-to-use framework for adding scenes and characters into the game, so that 0.2.0 will be the version in which development focus can easily shift onto adding in more content! ^^


Goals for 0.1.99:

- Fix the final bugs in multiple-partner sex scenes and implement lust & stamina mechanics in sex.

- Add in missing content related to addictive/psychoactive/alcoholic fluids.

- Implement combat & stats improvements.

- Add quest & content for Nyan (which was the winner of a poll I did on Patreon).

- Fix as many bugs as possible.

Version 0.1.98.1 (Hotfix)

Hello again everyone! :3

This is just a small hotfix to correct the major issues in 0.1.98. Thank you for all of the bug reports! Now that I've got this done, I'll be able to start answering all of your comments this evening. ^^

(I also tried to tidy up the formatting of my posts here on the blog. ^^)

v0.1.98.1 patch notes


  • Bugs:
    • Fixed bug where multiple incompatible penetrations could be performed at once.
      Nipple penetration options should no longer appear as a greyed-out option if the character's nipples are not able to be penetrated.
      Orgasm descriptions will no longer reference cum if the character that's orgasming doesn't produce any.
      Fixed bug where orgasm descriptions were referencing the wrong person.
      Fixed bug where NPCs would continuously put you into the missionary position every turn.
      Fixed some incorrect name parsing during orgasm descriptions.
      Fixed bug where repeating Ralph's discount scene would cause the game to freeze.
      Fixed the 'Grow cock' action for demon NPCs setting cum production value to max.
      Fixed bug where creampie effects could stop being applied.
      NPCs should no longer switch positions the moment before orgasm. (I thought I'd fixed this before, but there was another cause of it.)
      Creampie effects should no longer instantly disappear when sex ends.
      Fixed Ralph's discount incrementing to the point where he pays you to take his items from him.
      (Hopefully) Fixed the error where Lilaya's sex scene would sometimes freeze.

    Please be aware that Lilith's Throne is still an early alpha, so these builds will most likely contain bugs and half-finished content!

    Version 0.1.98 Release

    UPDATE: I'm working on a hotfix at the moment to address the major bugs. I expect it to be ready at ~23:00 GMT.

    Hello again everyone! :3

    As I made a hotfix on Monday, I only had a few days in which to work on this release, but I still managed to get four main things done: cum inflation; missionary position; more orgasm descriptions; and changing slave's appearances (using the same options as Kate's shop). I've got all of the sex engine work sorted now, except the final implementation of stamina/lust, but that will only take me a day to finish off (all the background work is now done). I also still need to add in more detail for addictive/alcoholic/psychoactive fluids, but that's also a very minor thing to add in comparison to all the engine work. :3

    Next version I'll get those two things finished, and also move on to the combat work and writing in Nyan's content. Sorry I haven't kept up with the comments here on the blog this week; I'll catch up over this weekend! ^^

    The artwork of Lexi (the nympho harpy matriarch from the quest 'Angry harpies') in this post was done again by Jam. :3
    You can find them over on their SFW blog, and their NSFW blog.


    This is still an early alpha, and will most likely contain bugs and half-finished content!

    (You can find the patch notes for 0.1.97.5 and 0.1.97.6 in this blog post.)

    Version 0.1.98 patch notes:


  • Gameplay:
    • Added 'Cum Inflation' option to content preferences screen (on by default).
      Reworked and improved creampie status effects, adding new icons, and keeping track of how much cum is currently inside of your orifices. Having the 'masochist' or 'cum addict' fetishes now makes these status effects apply a positive modifier.
      Added related status effects for cum inflation, and added in more detailed cum inflation descriptions in orgasms (can be disabled in the content preferences screen).
      Further improved orgasm descriptions for all penis modifiers, and added in the start of fluid descriptions. (I ran out of time in which to properly create alcoholic and psychoactive status effects and descriptions.)
      Improved UI for changing colour of a body part (in Kate's shop and character creator).
      Added the (basic) ability to send slaves to Kate's shop, in order to change their appearance. (I'll expand this and tidy up the UI at a later date.)
      Added missionary position (both on back and between legs for both sub and dom) to generic sex scenes. NPCs will now also use this position (if they want to).
  • Other:
    • Displacement of clothing is now restored after a sex scene. (So if you start a sex scene with your jacket unbuttoned, it will be re-equipped after sex in its unbuttoned state.)
      Reduced arousal gains from characters with the 'Unwilling Fuck-Toy' fetish resisting in sex from 150% normal value, to 125%.
      Made all penetrative actions visible in sex scenes, although disabled until you meet their requirements.
      Added submissive sex variations for offspring encounters.
  • Bugs:
    • Fixed some reported instances of incorrect parsing & typos.
      NPCs should no longer repeatedly start/stop penetrations in sex.
      Fixed black and grey text colours being inverted.
      Fixed unavailable eye colours for demons, wolf-morphs, and cat-morphs.
      NPCs should now comment on body parts the first time they're revealed in sex again.
      Fixed several instances of orgasms removing ongoing penetrations.
      Fixed bug where you could increase the wetness of your vagina even if you didn't have one.
      Fixed inconsistent descriptions in being force-fed TF potions.
      Fixed bug where loading a saved game would not load any of your clothing's displacements. (All clothing would be reset to having not being displaced.)
      Fixed case where multiple types of exposed status effects could be applied at once to one character.
      Corrected description of the double-sized bed upgrade in the two-person slave room.
      Fixed the bug where when feeding a potion to an NPC (or drinking it yourself) which has a large number of effects, all of the TF descriptions were based on the target's end state.
      NPCs will no longer use the last of their stamina on a special attack.
      Fixed parsing errors in hypno-watch effects.
      Added some more reasonable descriptions for alligator 'body hair' (scales).
      Choosing 'Rough'/'Gentle'/'Eager'/'Resisting' options at the start of sex will now correctly start the sex scene with you in that pace.
      Fixed bug where you could drop/remove/displace NPC's clothes through the [Phone] > [Contacts] > [NPC Name] tabs.
      Fixed not being able to switch positions in Kate's sex scene.
      Fixed all offensive spells referencing 'arcane fire'.

    Continued goals for 0.1.98

    Hello again! ^^

    This is just a small post to let you all know what I'm working on this week. :3

    The main thing that I'll be focusing on over the next few days is finishing off all the sex-related work, which will include writing in a lot more detail for the new orgasm system, as well as adding in stamina and lust mechanics during sex. I'm going to push the combat rework & Nyan content back into version 0.1.99, as there are a huge amount of bugs in this current version, and I really need to spend some time getting them under control before I move on to anything else.


    Goals for 0.1.98:

    - Finish multiple-partner sex scene framework & implement the final improvements to the sex system (lust & stamina in sex).

    - Add in more detailed orgasm descriptions for knotting, orifice modifiers, fluid modifiers, etc.

    - Add in missing content related to addictive fluids, and start writing in descriptions for different TF types during sex (such as tongue length influencing oral descriptions, grabbing horns, using multiple tails, etc.). This will be something that I'll continue to work on through the course of the game's development, as there are a huge number of TFs to take into account when writing descriptions for sex scenes.


    Moved to 0.1.99:

    - Implement combat & stats improvements.

    - Add quest & content for Nyan (which was the winner of a poll I did on Patreon).

    Version 0.1.98 Update Progress

    Hello everybody! ^^

    This week, I finally finished the engine updates that were needed in order to support multiple-partner sex. I've still got a small amount of work left to do on some related mechanics (such as using lust & stamina in sex), but those will only take a day or two. I also got started on updating the orgasm content, which at the moment is half-way done. It will be completely finished off for the full release on Friday! ^^

    I think that next week's work on the combat update (and Nyan's content) will run over into 0.1.99, but that will definitely be the last engine-focused update before 0.2.0, where I'll switch my effort over to adding in content! :3

    As always, I build these previews for backers on Patreon, but if you're not a patron, you can also build these previews yourself from the public github (which is always kept up to date with the very latest version):
    https://github.com/Innoxia/liliths-throne-public (There's a build tutorial here.)


    Version 0.1.97.5 progress:


  • Engine:
    • Updated to Java 9.0.1. If you're using the .jar version of the game, please update your Java to 9.0.1 (.exe versions are unaffected).
      Finished converting the save system to .xml. All saves now use the new .xml system, so you won't need to export/import between versions anymore.
      Optimised NPC load method, so loading a game should now be faster.
      Added support for conditional parsing commands to the parsing engine. I'll add documentation for this soon.
      Finished refactor of all sex engine code to properly support multiple-partner sex scenes.
  • UI:
    • Updated Save/Load UI, and changed Export/Import to exported character management screen.
      Updated inventory slot positions. (This should now be the final layout.)
  • Sex:
    • NPCs should no longer switch positions just before they orgasm.
      NPCs will no longer instantly re-penetrate themselves on the same turn that you forbid or stop all self-penetrative actions.
      Reworked all back-end code for generic orgasms, ready to write in more detailed content for the full release.
      Added 'cum on area' orgasm options, to allow you to cum on a specific area of your partner's body. (Not completely finished yet.)
  • Other:
    • Demons now only have 1 pair of breasts by default. (I originally intended this to be the case, but I ended up giving them 3 a long time ago to test multiple-breast rows, and forgot to change it back.)
      Improved corruption descriptions to reflect the fact that corruption is a measure of perversion.
      Offspring are now permanently removed from the encounterable NPC list when you tell them to leave. (I'll add a way to manually find them again in the future.)
      Penis, anus, nipple, and vagina sex actions (such as 'Finger him/her' and 'Stroke his/her cock') are now completely hidden until you discover if the NPC has the correct genitals/nipples/anus to perform those actions on.
      Removed old lore reference to the arcane making everyone bi-sexual (this was the case before I added sexual orientations to the game).
      Moved pregnancy lore information out of the phone's 'Pregnancy stats' page and into a book in Lilaya's library.
      Forced TFs will now increase your cum production, where appropriate.
      Gynephilic NPCs will now prefer to forcibly TF you into a female, unless they have the 'pregnancy' or 'broodmother' fetishes, in which case they will prefer to TF you into a futanari, shemale, or trap.
      Added a masochistic/cum addict variation of the 'dirty clothes' status effect.
      Added a 'dirty body' status effect (with matching masochistic/cum addict variation), which is applied if any of your body parts are covered in cum. (Can be removed by washing in your room.)
  • Contributors:
    • Added Linux font compatibility (added Carlito as an alternative font for Calibri). (by PyrophoricPlumage)
      Fixed incorrect colour reference. (by CognitiveMist)
      Numerous performance improvements. (by CognitiveMist)
      Addressed some control flow & code style items. (by CognitiveMist)
      Fixed striped leggings, panties, and bra using incorrect colour variables. (by Tukaima)
  • Bugs:
    • NPC orgasms should now function correctly (that is, they should now cum inside when they're supposed to).
      Typo fixes (some minor ones in tooltips, changing 'reindeer morph' to be hyphenated like other races, and several other small fixes).
      Imported slaves at the auction block no longer spawn in as being pregnant.
      Fixed bugs related to Finch's ownership of slaves. (He should now correctly lose ownership of slaves you purchase from the auction block.)
      Fixed incorrect penis reveal dialogue (where the NPC would compare your penis size to their own, non-existent penis).
      Fixed enchanting bug where crafting a potion to change a certain body type (primarily horns) would then lock out transformation options for other racial potions.
      Fixed hypno-watch effect description returning 'command_unknown'.
      Slightly changed piercing slot descriptions to reflect whether or not your character knows what the NPC's genitals/nipples look like.
      Nyan's inventory is now correctly saved/loaded.
      Multiple partner sex scenes should no loner suddenly lose one of the NPC partners.
      Fixed major game-freezing bug where if you were on the receiving end of penetrative non-consensual sex, and your partner reached orgasm but you did not, you would get stuck on the 'receive creampie' and 'request pullout' options.
      Fixed duplicate actions showing up in Kate's and Lilaya's sex scenes.
      When starting from a character import, the flag that sets your having met Brax is now correctly reset.
      Fixed minor bug in gender appearance method (masculine characters with no genitals are no assumed to be male if their groin is concealed).
      Added correct description variants for NPCs when consuming the harpy matriarchs' special items.
      Fixed bug where you could perform anilingus and cunnilingus at the same time. (Also fixed a related bug where multiple penis-related sex actions could be performed.)
      Fixed four and five rows of breasts always being described as three.
      Fixed issue where in some screens/dialogue/tooltips, incorrect NPC names or stats would be displayed.
      Can no longer pull up T-shirt from under concealing/blocking clothing.
      NPCs will no longer be stuck at having a fraction of their health, willpower, and stamina.
      Vicky's post-sex scene will now correctly no longer reference Arthur's package after you've completed that section of the side-quest.
      Importing a game that was exported while the difficulty was set to anything above 'Human' will no loner lock all NPC's levels to being double that of yours.
      Slightly improved genetics/inheritance method, so that offspring's ass & hip sizes (and probably a few other things) will now more closely resemble that of their parents.
      Fixed bugged arousal gain values in sex.
      Winter event Reindeer-morphs will no longer spawn in as human (if your furry settings are set to 'Human', then they'll spawn in as minor Reindeer-morphs).
      Reindeer overseers and cultist chapels should now both be able to be accessed if they are on the same tile.
      'Spread pussy' action will now transfer lubrication between fingers & vagina.

    UPDATE:

    Version 0.1.97.6 (Hotfix):


  • Other:
    • Removed mutual orgasms (again). They weren't really serving much purpose (the only two instances of mutual orgasms were just appending normal orgasm text together), and were removing your control over your partner's orgasm.
      Converted 'generic' partner orgasms into the new system. They're still a little bland at the moment, but I'll write in more detail this week. :3
      Reduced default size of horse-morph breasts (from GG to DD), and increased default size of cow-morph breasts (from E to G).
  • Bugs:
    • Fixed: Game freezes/unresponsive orgasm actions during sex (the 'Stay in position' ones).
      Fixed: Numerous cases of sex actions becoming unavailable when they shouldn't have been. (You should now be able to perform multiple different 'ongoing' penetrations at once, just like you used to be able to.)
      Fixed pregnant characters not working in 'New game (import)', as well as pregnant characters not being imported in Slaver Alley's auction block.
      The 'Wash' action in your room will now correctly clean currently equipped clothing.
      Fixed quite a few reported typos and instances of incorrect gender/character parsing.
      The 'Pull out' orgasm actions will now correctly stop penis penetration.
      NPCs in the stocks can no longer manage your or their own clothes.
      Fixed bug where your partner's ongoing sex actions would be available to you (such as getting fingering options when your partner would be fingering themselves).
      Fixed a few more causes of game freezes/background errors.
      Fixed 'Anal tease' sex action sometimes returning a blank description.

    Github update tomorrow

    Hello everyone! ^^

    Sorry for the disappointing news, but I'll have to push tonight's github/Patreon update back by one day. :(

    I've finished refactoring all of the code that's needed for multiple-partner sex to work, but there are still quite a few major bugs that need to be fixed. I need another day to get them all sorted out, so I'll have to release the github/Patreon update tomorrow (I'll try and get it released a few hours earlier than the usual time).

    Update will be: Saturday ~23:00 GMT Very soon (before 00:30 GMT)! (Just a couple of bugs... x_x)

    I've updated the github, and am currently working on packaging up the Patreon preview version. Please be aware that I've updated to Java 9.0.1, so if you're building from the github, you may need to update your Java!

    Version 0.1.98 Goals

    Hello again everyone! :3

    Sorry again that this latest release is a little buggy. I should have all of the new sex mechanics & engine work finished by Wednesday, so the next release will be a lot more polished. ^^

    As to the goals for 0.1.98, I'm going to be finishing off this sex work, and then moving on to the combat update, which will be the very last of the big engine changes. For the preview version on Friday, I anticipate having all the new sex mechanics/engine work finished, as well as (finally) having the new orgasm content added. I really can't apologise enough for how long that's taking me to implement! x_x

    For the week after this one, which will be the week of the full release, I'll be fixing bugs, implementing the new combat system, and writing in some content for Nyan. :3


    Goals for 0.1.98:

    - Finish engine support for multiple-partner sex scenes & implement the final improvements to the sex system (lust & stamina in sex).

    - Improve orgasm dialogue, and add in position-specific orgasm scenes with body-part recognition. (This will be things such as knotting, orifice modifiers, fluid modifiers, etc.)

    - Add in missing content related to addictive fluids, and start writing in descriptions for different TF types during sex (such as tongue length influencing oral descriptions, grabbing horns, using multiple tails, etc.). This will be something that I'll continue to work on through the course of the game's development, as there are a huge number of TFs to take into account when writing descriptions for sex scenes.

    - Implement combat & stats improvements.

    - Add quest & content for Nyan (which was the winner of a poll I did on Patreon).

    Version 0.1.97 (hotfix)

    Hello again! :3

    I've fixed the major bugs that were present in yesterday's release, so this version should be a little more stable. Please do be aware that the vast majority of the work I did for this version was in back-end code refactoring, so while there is a small amount of new stuff to see, there isn't anywhere near as much content as a non-engine-focused release would have.

    I was tempted to work on this release some more over tomorrow, and then release a more complete hotfix mid-week next week, but from my experience of doing that last year, I know that I'd end up exhausting myself and then not being able to work on 0.1.98 to the best of my abilities. So, with that in mind, I've decided to release this hotfix as-is, and then get the multiple-partner sex stuff finished early next week, which I'll then roll into 0.1.98.

    Thank you all so much for your comments, feedback, and support! Once I've got all this release stuff done, I'll start answering comments here on the blog. ^^

    The artwork of Kate in this post was done again by Jam over at http://jamdrawers.tumblr.com/


    IMPORTANT! The game currently might not work on Java version 9.0.1! You'll need to either use the .exe version, or make sure you're running the .jar using Java 1.8.0_152!

    This is still an early alpha, and will most likely contain bugs and half-finished content!

    UPDATED! I've updated the download links to version 0.1.97.1 (fixes some major penetration and orgasm bugs)!

    Another update! I fixed the Pix sex scene bug and updated the download links again. (Should be no more updates now until 0.1.98.)

    Version 0.1.97 patch notes:


  • UI:
    • Minor fixes to some of the new elements in sex.
      Fixed minor error in light theme's sex display.
  • Other:
    • Slaves with the 'unwilling fuck-toy' fetish will no longer lose affection from being assigned to the public stocks.
  • Bugs:
    • Fixed major bug where you couldn't interact with any items an NPC had in their inventory (making all shopkeepers unable to sell you anything).
      Vicky no longer has her penile virginity.
      Vicky will now correctly perform penetrative actions in her sex scene.
      Fixed 'stop sex' being available in all scenes.
      Fixed bug where you couldn't remove your own clothing in some sex scenes.
      'Core lust' changes should no longer show up in the event log.
      'Stop penetration' sex actions should now correctly work again.
      Antler headband is no longer feminine.
      Nyan will no longer stock Christmas-themed clothing.
      Fixed incorrect & buggy orgasm descriptions.
      Fixed 'Locked in stocks' sex's orifices being available when they shouldn't have been.

    Buggy Version 0.1.96.9 Release

    Hello everyone! I'm so, so sorry about the late release, as well as the state that this version is in! x_x

    The multiple-partner sex engine work took a disastrous turn this morning, and what I thought would be the final little section of code refactoring turned into a cascading nightmare of errors. It's taken me ~16 hours to get all of the (obvious) errors fixed, and I'm sure that there are more I haven't managed to discover yet.

    This version is most likely going to be very buggy, so I really would strongly advise waiting for a hotfix (which I'll try and get out mid-way through next week). I'm absolutely exhausted at the moment, so I'm going to catch up on sleep over the weekend, and then work on getting a more polished version out as soon as I possibly can.

    It's not all bad news, however. This work that I'm doing now is the last huge amount of engine work that I'll need to do on Lilith's Throne (the combat update will be very simple in comparison), and it's almost all finished. This really will be the last choppy period of the game's development, and once I've finished this (and the combat work), I'll be able to move the game's designation from 'Alpha' to 'Beta'. Thank you all for bearing with me through these rough releases; this will be one of, if not the, last of the highly-buggy updates! ^^


    IMPORTANT! The game currently might not work on Java version 9.0.1! You'll need to either use the .exe version, or make sure you're running the .jar using Java 1.8.0_152!

    Version 0.1.96.9 patch notes:


  • Engine:
    • Did a huge amount of engine work for supporting multiple partners in sex. This required an enormous refactor of how sex is handled in the engine, which took up ~90% of the time this week.
      Final sex mechanics (taking the form of 'lust' and stamina) have been half-added to the engine.
  • Sex:
    • You should now be able to use all of your hands/tails during sex.
  • Gameplay:
    • Added double room upgrade, so you can now house two slaves in each room.
  • Clothing:
    • Added: Women's leather jacket (feminine, over-torso slot). (I added this to complete Kate's new outfit.)
      Added: Striped panties (feminine, groin slot).
      Added: Striped bra (feminine, chest slot).
      Added: Striped thigh-high socks (feminine, sock slot).
  • UI:
    • Moved weapons & jewellery into the 'equipped' panel, so all equipped items are now grouped into the same UI element.
      Fixed bugs related to tooltip positioning causing some UI elements to become inaccessible.
  • Other:
    • Removed 'Wing' clothing slot. (I might add this again in the future, but I was struggling to think of any 'wing clothing' to add to that slot.)
      Tweaked drop rate of racial consumables (the ones that are able to be enchanted into transformatives are now a little more common).
      Added more control over selecting font size in the option menu.
  • Bugs:
    • Minor formatting error fixes.
      The sex action 'Spread ass' is now correctly available for the player.
      NPCs should no longer get stuck on trying to transform your genitals after beating you in combat.
      Enchanted weapons (those with with stat buffs) now correctly apply their buffs when importing a save/character.
      Minor fix to default gender names (changed an instance of 'doll' to 'neuter').
      Minor typo fixes.
      Fixed hypno-watch and Arthur's package being found in alleyways.
      You can no longer purchase Arthur's Room upgrade before progressing to the correct point in the main quest.
      Fixed encyclopedia preview pictures not working.
      Fixed an error in changing what your slave calls you through the 'Permissions' screen.
      Fixed bug where pressing enter on a blank text field would cause the centre panel of the UI to go blank.

    P.S. I'll respond to all of your comments over the weekend. Sorry that this release is so buggy! ;_;

    Continued goals for 0.1.97

    Hello again! :3

    This is just a small update to let you all know what I'm working on this week. ^^

    Both yesterday and today, I've been getting the multiple-partner sex mechanics implemented. I'm hoping to have it finished (most likely in a rough, but workable state) by the end of tomorrow, which will then allow me to go on to adding in the new orgasm & addictive fluid content over Thursday and Friday. I'm also adding in the final sex mechanics alongside this, which includes adding stamina and 'lust' as sex-related attributes, as well as doing some major work on fetishes.

    I'm still on track to having this all done by the 12th, but as with most large engine changes, there's always the chance that some unexpected problem will crop up. If anything like that does happen (which I honestly can't see how it could at this stage), I'll make sure to let you all know in advance of Friday's release. ^^


    Goals for 0.1.97:

    - Fix major game-breaking bugs. (Minor bugs will have to wait for 0.1.98, sorry! ;_;)

    - Improve orgasm dialogue, and add in position-specific orgasm scenes with body-part recognition. (This will be things such as knotting, orifice modifiers, fluid modifiers, etc.)

    - Add in missing content related to addictive fluids, and start writing in descriptions for different TF types during sex (such as tongue length influencing oral descriptions, grabbing horns, using multiple tails, etc.). This will be something that I'll continue to work on through the course of the game's development, as there are a huge number of TFs to take into account when writing descriptions for sex scenes.

    - Add in engine support for multiple-partner sex scenes & work on final improvements to the sex system.

    Version 0.1.97 Update Progress

    Hello everybody! ^^

    I've got back into the swing of things this week, and although I managed to get a lot of work done on finishing Arthur's main quest content, as well as adding in a side quest, I made a big mistake in implementing the new orgasm design I had... (As I tried to get it working with multiple-partner sex stuff, a few problems presented themselves.)

    The core issue I had was with the 'prepare orgasm' actions, and the interactions they cause when handling multiple partners. I think I've got that issue solved now, but there was also a problem with the way I'd split up mutual orgasms in the previous version. I've had to revert that change (so that mutual orgasms are now a thing again), which I think actually works out for the best in the long run (I think the mutual orgasms make the sex scenes a little smoother).

    Please remember that this is just a preview of my progress! The orgasm & sex content goals are still on track to being achieved for the full release on the 12th! ^^

    As always, I build these previews for backers on Patreon, but if you're not a patron, you can also build these previews yourself from the public github (which is always kept up to date with the very latest version):

    Version 0.1.96.5 progress:


  • Engine:
    • Slightly improved enchanting mechanics to add in a limit to the number of enchantments possible on each item (default 100).
  • Gameplay:
    • Added a small section of the main quest (just finishing up Arthur moving into Lilaya's home).
      Added the side-quest 'Arthur's Experiments', available after assigning a room to Arthur, and from which you obtain a way to change both the PC's and NPCs' sexual orientation.
  • Sex:
    • Reverted the removal of mutual orgasms.
      Dominant NPCs will no longer respect your requests in non-consensual sex.
      Added 'spread ass' action.
  • Other:
    • Legendary items, weapons, and clothing will no longer be removed from tiles.
      Demonic wings now allow flight when grown to be large enough. (Flight only affects a couple of actions so far.)
      Added correct player-partner use descriptions for all items.
      Slightly adjusted item prices.
      Very slightly changed Rose's 'Slavery' dialogue (the one about her and Lilaya's relationship).
      Removed ability to cycle orientation in the phone's fetish screen (as this can now be achieved by using the new item).
      Updated Kate's clothing and appearance.
  • Contributors:
    • Fixed alligator-morph eyes from having round to vertical pupils by default. (Rfpnj)
  • Bugs:
    • Jolnir's hat is no longer feminine.
      Demon attackers will now correctly prefer to use their penis.
      Nyan should now have correct hair/fur colour (black) when importing older games.
      Fixed some unfinished reindeer overseer dialogue.
      Fixed Lilaya's pregnancy dialogue to correctly reflect how pregnancies work in LT.
      Fixed major bug in AbstractClothing's hashCode method that was causing crashes.
      Fixed bug where physical resistance (and other effects) from clothing would not be removed when inventory was reset (most noticeably in character creation, when pressing start/back repeatedly).
      Fixed old elixir and potion imports showing 'null' as their background icon.
      Minor fix to Lilaya's post-creampie-sex scene.
      Fixed minor inventory text formatting bug.
      Temporarily stopped chemise from blocking groin areas until I can rework the clothing displacement system (there were some major issues with wearing chemise & pantyhose).

    P.S. I'll catch up with all your comments over the weekend! :3

    Version 0.1.97 Goals

    Hello again everyone! I hope you all had an enjoyable Christmas, and I wish you all the very best for 2018! ^^

    I had a nice relaxing week over the Christmas holidays, so I'm fully refreshed and ready to get started on the work for version 0.1.97! There have been quite a few bugs reported in the game so far, so I'll spend the rest of today fixing as many of those as I can, and then for the next three days I'll concentrate on the new orgasm content, as well as getting the multiple-partner sex mechanics implemented. (That will most likely be finished for the full release on January 12th.) :3

    There are lots of other minor things to add over these next few weeks as well, such as (finally) adding the ability to take slaves to Kate's shop, adding descriptions and TFs for cloacas and body material types, finishing off the new xml save system, and many more small things like that! I'll do my very best to get all of the engine work finished off by the end of January, so that I can move on to the more content-focused section of development at the start of February. ^^

    Finally, thank you all so much for your support, feedback, and interest in Lilith's Throne! I promise that I'll work just as hard this year as I did in 2017, so there should be lots of new and exciting things being added to the game over the next few weeks and months. Happy New Year! ^^


    Goals for 0.1.97:

    - Fix bugs.
    - Improve orgasm dialogue, and add in position-specific orgasm scenes with body-part recognition (such as knotting, orifice modifiers, fluid modifiers, etc.).
    - Add in missing content related to the new transformations. Addictive fluids, part modifiers referenced during sex, etc.
    - Add in engine support for multiple-partner sex scenes & work on final improvements to the sex system. (This should be done by January 12th.)
