Public post - Aces high!

Hello, and thank you for joining me for the public update!
I've had better weeks - over the weekend, progress on the game was slowed by the death of my rig. It was so beautiful and it went before its time. I've put in my order for its replacement, and should be fully operational again by the end of the week.
I'm able to keep working on the RPGM side in the meantime, though the 3D renders are paused while I wait for something that can handle Studio Neo.
So let's talk about something nice instead, I sometimes lose track a bit of what I've put in these public updates but I believe I've so far only discussed the upcoming Strip Poker minigame behind the paywall, and even then, I'm sure my backers would appreciate some more details, so let's bring you all up to speed on that!
In the above image, we have our four lovely participants. Some of them you already know, others have only really been seen in the background so far. So from left to right, we have Mary, Missy (of course,) Lisa and Annie. All first year girls in Miss Paris's class.
The minigame itself is fairly simple. You don't even need to know the rules of poker to play. Each turn, Missy will make a few simple choices to try and maximize her chances winning (or at least not losing) and then the loser(s) of the round will strip.
What happens if they are already naked? Well glad you asked, because in Sapphorian strip poker, participants aren't eliminated just because they're naked. Oh no! The game continues as long as more than one girl is still wearing something and a girl who loses when already naked must do a forfeit! There'll be a number of one and two-girl forfeits to see.
The strip poker event is designed to be a more light-hearted sexy experience for our girl, and seemed like a nice counter-weight to the relentless day from hell that she has coming in Chapter 4. When you have a game about a girl that goes to a school like Saint Alancia's then lives with a women like Karen in a land like Sapphory, with all of the strict discipline and humiliation that entails, it's easy to get carried away, and so with events like this, we'll occasionally turn it down a notch and just get a glimpse of the sort of things ordinary girls in Sapphory do to relieve the stress.
I hope you've enjoyed this week's glimpse into the delights coming your way in 0.5. Lastly, the next character we'll be getting in here for an interview will be none other than the beautiful and elegant Miss Paris. If you have a question for her, please ask it below, on Discord or in a PM. Thanks and have a great week!
