Hello again!
I've finally got this version into a state that's ready for release. I didn't manage to get everything finished, but I've delayed it by so much that I couldn't possibly justify pushing the release back any more. I've tested everything a lot, and so there shouldn't be any game-breaking bugs, but as with any release where I'm adding things right up to the last minute, there may be one or two bugs which slipped past me. If there are any serious ones, I'll get a hotfix released asap.
As for what's in this release, I've got the next stage of the main quest content added, as well as a new sex toy shop location in Dominion. I've also added a new 'doll' race, which took a while to implement due to having quite a few unique aspects to them. I'd planned on having these dolls (which will be sold at the new sex toy shop) available for you to buy as a type of slave for this release, but the sex toy shop content took longer to add than I expected, so the doll purchasing will be added for the next version.
There's also new art for Oglix & Golix (the succubus and her elemental in 'The Crossed Blades' tavern in Elis) by FriendlyAlienFriend (https://twitter.com/thealienfriend), and art for Fae & Silvia (the fox-taur sisters in the Farmer's Market in Elis) by Pusspuss (https://twitter.com/PusspussARTZ). There are also some new items, a small extension of Jules's content, and a lot of bug fixes.
For the next version, I'm going to be focusing on finishing the doll purchasing content, adding the side quest for the succubus involved in the new stage of the main quest (which I've mentioned in a previous post, but didn't manage to get added for this release after all...), and adding content for Silence & Shadow. I'm also going to finally be working on fixing the wiki, so progress towards the next version might be a little slow at first while I get that sorted out.
Thank you all again so much for your support, and for your patience during all of these delays. I won't give an estimated release date for the next version, but I will give you an update progress post by the end of this week to let you know how things are going. ^^
DSG's SWORD Poster
As this next stage of the main quest is primarily focused on SWORD Enforcers, and includes lore relating to the Fifth Human Rebellion (which is an important in-game historical event that's shaped society and how the Enforcers are structured), now seemed like a good time to include a poster which DSG created a little while ago (with some artwork by Jam - https://twitter.com/JamDrawers). For those who don't know, DSG is the one who created the vast majority of the Enforcer lore, and has been a super great help in adding Enforcer (and other!) content. This image has a resolution high enough to read all the text, so make sure to open it fully if you want to see all the details. ^^
As always, you can also build these releases yourself from the public github's dev branch (which is always kept up to date with the very latest version):
https://github.com/Innoxia/liliths-throne-public/tree/dev
(There's a build tutorial here.)
IMPORTANT: If you're building through github, you'll now need to place the 'liliths-throne-public/res' folder in the same directory as the exported .jar!
v0.4.9 Download Links
This is still an alpha, and contains bugs and half-finished content!
Note: If you're on Windows, it's best to use the .exe version (only use the 32-bit exe if you're using 32-bit Windows). The .jar download is so that players on Linux or MacOS can get the game to run, in which case you'll need to make sure that you have java installed on your machine and that you have JavaFX installed too. You can ask in the #tech-support channel on the LT discord for help if it's not working.

- Added Oglix (with pregnant variations) and Golix artwork.
- Added Fae & Silvia artwork (with pregnant and multi-boob variations).
- Custom parser targets (i.e. the custom parser ID you assign to an NPC when creating them) are now saved and loaded correctly, meaning that custom NPCs can now be accessed via their custom ID after saving and loading. (More of a bugfix than an addition.)
- Added 'IGNORE_HAIR_RESTRICTION' item tag, for use on clothing which should be able to be equipped into the HAIR slot even if the character has no hair.
- Added 'WEAPON_FIREARM' item tag, which should be given to any weapon that should be regarded as being a firearm. (Weapons with this tag are affected by the new 'Firearms Mastery' perk which Ghost and Hammer have.)
- Added a new 'submitBlocked' element to combat responses, allowing you to disable the option to submit during combat scenes.
- Added the next section of the main quest, where you get the help from the SWORD Enforcers in Elis. (thanks to DSG for assistance with Enforcer lore)
- At the nightclub, 'The Watering Hole', if you are a demon you can now skip the queue, and if you've sucked Jules's cock, you now can have sex with him in his office.
- Added a new sex toy shop location in Dominion; 'Lovienne's Luxuries'. Sex toys and fetish gear is now sold here instead of by Finch.
- Added new 'doll' race. This race only appears in Lovienne's Luxuries at the moment, and dolls will be available to purchase as a type of slave in the next version.
- Added 'cuff choker necklace' (androgynous, neck slot, sold by Nyan).
- Added 'triple cuff choker necklace' (feminine, neck slot, sold by Nyan).
- Added 'balaclava' (androgynous, hair slot (so that it can be equipped with hats, eyewear, and mouth items), sold by Nyan). Muggers will now sometimes spawn wearing a balaclava instead of a bandana.
- Added 'SWORD dagger' (melee, one-handed, 25 base damage with high variance, all damage types, not sold by anyone as it's a special reward).
- Added 'leg warmers' (feminine, calves slot, sold by Nyan).
- Added 'arcane slegehammer' (melee, two-handed, 25 base damage with low variance, all damage types, sold by Vicky).
- Standardised the angle of two-handed melee weapons' icons (battle axe, sledgehamme, and zweihander) to be opposite to that of one-handed weapons.
- Added 'barcode' tattoo.
- Characters now need to be visibly pregnant (i.e. progressed past the 'risk of pregnancy' stage) in order to lay eggs via ovipositor. (Remember that characters can use mother's milk to progress past this stage if you want to impregnate & lay eggs in the same sex scene.)
- Added the 'Highly illegal' tag to the arcane revolver.
- Friendly occupants now earn experience by working slave jobs (25% chance per hour to earn 5xp).
- NPCs' elementals now show in the 'Characters Present' panel on the right of the screen, even when not active.
- Catherine (the slime queen) now has barbell nipple piercings and a triple cuff choker necklace, as her artwork depicts.
- You can no longer loiter in 'The Crossed Blades' tavern, as doing so could leave you in there during closing hours.
- Added 'light purple' as a skin colour.
- The default fetish preferences for the 'Bimbo' and 'Cross dressing' fetishes has been lowered. (This won't have any effect unless a new 'properties.xml' file is generated, i.e. only on a completely new game start.)
- Changed the masculine/female race names for dobermanns from simply 'dobermann/dobermann' to 'dobermann-boy/dobermann-girl' to make them more consistent with other race names.
- Changed the name postfix of ground floor maps from 'GF' to 'F0', and that of first floor maps from '1F' to 'F1'.
- Added 'flavourless' as a new fluid flavouring.
- Changed default feminine gender names for lacking genitals from 'doll' to 'mannequin'.
- Parsing and typo fixes.
- The awning poles, green cloth, and embroidered sign are now correctly removed from the player's inventory when completing Eisek's stall quest (these items are also removed from your inventory when loading into this version if you've already completed the quest).
- The 'Clean her' option on Nizhoni is now correctly disabled after activating it.
- Fixed issue where the next scene after going downstairs in Elis's town hall would be the scene at the top of the stairs instead of the bottom.
- Fixed some dialogue bugs in Pix's gym where it would describe you as not being a member of the gym when you were and vice versa.
- You will no longer obtain condoms used by NPCs in sex if either the player or the NPC is a spectator of the sex scene and the other one isn't.
- The 'Trickster's Mask' is no longer sold by Nyan (the whole set will be added as a quest reward at a different location in a future version).
- Fixed issue where Nyan was described as saying goodbye to you when you left her store while she wasn't there.
- In double-penetration sex, penises no longer have their race prefix added to their name to prevent illogical parsing (e.g. 'wolf-cocks' was used for when a wolf and a non-wolf were penetrating).
- The vagina and anus orifices for characters with a cloaca are now correctly treated as being blocked for the purpose of sex action availability when clothing is equipped into them.
- Fixed issue with the 'Apple Pie à la Mode' item sometimes having incorrect colouring.
- The 'Balls focus' sex action now requires the performing character to have a real penis (so this action won't be available for strap-ons anymore).
- Fixed issue where half-demons could load full demon transformation presets but not half-demon ones.
- NPCs which spawn at the bar in 'Lights Out' no longer have their genitals and all other concealed body parts revealed to you right from the start.
- Fixed bug where you could get stuck in Desryth's apartment after rejecting him, then returning to meet him and rejecting him again.
- Fixed bug where if you reloaded a game which was saved during the day, NPCs which had spawned in Elis's alleyway tiles at night would often despawn and disappear.
- Fixed issue in sex actions involving urethral penetration of a penis where a pussy was being incorrectly referenced.
- Condoms now correctly block access to the wearer's penile urethra.
- The quick load feature should now work correctly for characters with a space in their name.
- Fixed bug where if you enchanted an item which had been renamed, the item's name would be reset back to its default name.
- Using the 'Quick sex' sex action now correctly increments your sex stats.
- Fixed bug where Natalya's TF potion wouldn't work if you were a demonic slime.
- Fixed background error being thrown when trying to delete Sterope's sexual partners (which would also leave random NPCs in the stables in the Centaur's Sword tavern - these excess NPCs will be cleaned up upon loading into this version).
- Fixed bug where the 'lime green' colour for clothing would be shown twice in the dye menu, with the second instance not being responsive.
- Fixed bug where you could knock on the door to Minotallys's office and have a conversation with her while she was asleep in her bedroom.
- If you have more 'Quest' rarity items than your inventory tab can normally display, the UI will now display your extra quest items instead of hiding them from you.
- Fixed bug where tooltips for perks weren't working in some character view windows.
- Fixed bug where setting body coverings would not set the correct covering pattern or modifier.
