Tweaks

• Roost redecoration scenes will always trigger if you change consort during Act IV. As a side effect, this means they will trigger a second time if you reload midway through an old save.
  
• Asking Marie-Anne for shelter in Act II will allow you to peacefully recruit her in Act III.
  
• Malice's last night will play out differently if Valzira is her mother, or the words of power have not been encountered.
  
• Sprites for Issa, Malagar, Mother, and Zizeryx have been tweaked so that they are in proportion with other characters (Painted artstyle only, for now).
  
• Maelys's animated battle poses have been converted to the more modern 'stripped' state.
  
• Malice can be given a complimentary name when Heloise asks for it.
  
• Chanwe no longer takes her robes off when visiting her at the convent.
  
• All character images are reset to their default state at the start of the character AMA.
  
• Darja's Infernal Fate has been renamed as 'The Dragon Princess'.
  
• Splitting The Winnings and Shift Change have been added to the gallery.
  
• Numerous improvements to visual and audio direction.
  

Fixes

• Translations will revert to English once you reach the end of the work in progress.
• You may revert to English manually after picking a translation.
• Fixed a rare error that would unlock all achievements.
  
• Sabetha's oral animations are properly proportioned.
  
• It is no longer possible to 'escape' the replay from Valzira's vaginal scene.
  
• Resolved a fringe inconsistency with gifting Heloise to the Infernals before her pregnancy is confirmed.
  
• Broodmother's gallery entry has been fixed and should unlock properly.
  
• Petruk will stop appearing if he is dead.
  
• Petruk's successor will no longer occasionally inherit his name.
  
• Time will pass when capturing Chanwe, Cooch, and Mina.
  
• You will gain Strength if you eat Issa after his encounter with Naho.
  
• You will gain Potency if you pursue the new option with Valzira.
  
• Cooch will remember to visit the beach during your Last Night with her.
  
• Several lines have been split to prevent overlapping the textbox.
  
• And everything found in the playtest! Thank you, playtesters!
