Version 1.3

We are happy to announce that the version 1.3 update will be coming out on May 11th, in approximately 12 days.

As previously mentioned, this update will encompass the following:

• 4 MC personality choices: this may affect dialogue, plot, and choice branches to varying degrees
• Base Boyfriend can now follow any career to completion
• 1 additional random event for each personality
• Additional choices added to several branches
• New scene variations based on your & BF's names, and some other minor factors
• Sub/dom options for sexy scenes (note that these are not always 1-to-1 variations; we focused on matching the options to the pre-existing CGs)
• New choice branches allowing you to stop sexy encounters at certain points
• ~2-5 hours total of additional content added to the game
• Several missing/broken pronoun variables have been fixed
• Many, many typo & grammar fixes
• Many reworded/rewritten lines for better flow and/or clearer meanings
• Phone graphic while calling BF
• Color-coded daily diary choices
• More SFX, screen shakes, etc. added to some scenes

Needless to say, this has been a huge undertaking for Reine Works, quite a few months in the making, so we ask that if you are particular about bugs and/or typos that you wait a few days post-release to play the game while we fix anything that's found. 

Kickstarter Campaign

We’d also like to announce that we’ll be holding a fairly basic, straightforward Kickstarter campaign for SSWK starting on May 13th. We’d like to raise the funds to hire assistant writers to speed up the process of making the necessary compatibility changes to the Expansion Pack so we can release it ASAP, without the huge delays 1.3 faced due to the game's structural changes. *

If you've already purchased the game, there's no particular benefit to ordering it again on Kickstarter -- they will not be getting any exclusive content, although we will have some returning & brand-new physical goods available there.  However, we would greatly appreciate any shares about the campaign on social media once it launches.

In the meantime, if you’d like to show your support, you can follow the campaign right here! Thank you!

* Talking as myself for this explanation: SSWK has essentially been a passion project. Even one year after launch, I am still footing development costs out-of-pocket because of the immense size of the project and comparatively low purchase price. The idea behind the project was always to be an accessible one, so I do not regret pricing it as such, even now. I have /personally/ still not seen a penny for my work and the countless hours I've put into the project due to this, as well, however -- and once SSWK itself is done, we have a previously promised spin-off that will require development. So, even if asking for additional funding this late in development is not a perfect solution, I would highly appreciate your understanding. Thank you.
