v0.9.1

- Added a new sex scene and dialogue with Aliyah in Chapter V.
- Fixed an issue where the game would get stuck after clicking on Irina after Ashley’s segment in Chapter V.
- Fixed an issue where browsing through Gallery entries using arrow keys would sometimes stop working.
- Added minor fixes.
v0.8.17
We’ve just added a new content update for Countess in Crimson. This update is quite substantial and focuses on Ashley’s side of the story, making it deeper and more coherent overall.
Apart from adding new narrative scenes in Chapter II and IV and adjusting some dialogues, there is now a new gameplay segment in Chapter V where you play from Ashley’s POV which also features a new sex scene with Ashley and the Countess.
The usual reminder: you will have to start a new game to experience new content. If you have an active playthrough, it’s also necessary to finish it first before updating the game as loading a save file from previous version will cause issues.

Developer Notes:
The demo contains first two chapters of the game, which should give you a good idea of how the gameplay feels like with the caveat that later chapters offer more in terms of free roaming and player agency (and of course, way more of the spicy content). Please note that some of the features intended for the full release (most notably the character screen, options, tutorials, galleries, achievements and manual saving) are disabled in this demo and there’s no need to contact us to request those.
