New version all! v2.9

I was hoping to finish up all of episode 3, but as usual there is more I feel needs added. Good news though... Besides two more chapters (and moving off the Demeter!), all of the game has music now, a lot of music, hand-picked, curated, etc. Also added an adjustable gamma slider in preferences for those who find a scene too dark.

I counted 44 pieces of varying musical lengths that I hope you guys enjoy, because it was even more work than I anticipated, but happy to have it done. Since I was going over the game as I was doing that, there are more sounds added also (probably added as much there as music), a few narrative tweaks/streamlining and coding upgrades. Nothing to go hunting for, but you may notice on another playthrough. Which I highly recommend for the music ofc!

Anyway, the next two chapters finally see the light past the Demeter (pacing could have been better here, but it accomplished a lot of my goals for the story, so thanks for bearing with me). We meet the final few love interests and important story characters who are near and dear and are fully setup for the final showdown next episode with the Darkness beyond to tie up the "Rescue" arc.

Then we can finally get back to unravelling the new mysterious, getting to know our new characters, and get down to some overdue debauchery with characters we have built some serious ties with.

As usual, please report any bugs to me, preferably on discord, but in direct message is fine too, or suggestions, etc.

Thanks to all those of you following this journey with me, -Ace

Uploading the full 2.8 Build now. It contains the next couple scenes/chapters. As well as some music and audio additions to previous chapters (Ep1 is now fully kitted). There is now more than a dozen musical scores, an equal amount of which were good stuff shared freely by others, some licensed, and some I had to create myself with a little help. I also did my best to localize everything to already existing sounds and levels, but let me know if anything is out of sorts. This is another story focused update, but things will pick up soon thanks to the addition of a character that has waited far too long for rescuing... something we finally get to resolve.

Working on the tweaking the final scene for this update, but there was enough finished and tested I am putting out the test build for the top two tiers for pc/linux/mac this time around for testing. The final product won't be much longer, but some more eyes on it wouldn't hurt.

In addition to the next scenes coming, I've also put some effort into finding/creating/adding more music and a few extra sound effects to previous scenes. The majority of Ep1S1 has music added now and I hope to have it fully done along with the final scene of v2.8 when it is ready, hopefully before the end of the coming week.
