Here it is! Yes, yes, and yes again! The happiest of hellos to all of you, it’s Shadow Portal Team, and we have a deal you simply won’t refuse. Let’s start!

Just think about it, time goes regardless of what anyone wants it to do and finally we’ve reached a point where it’s time for update 0.29. All this time we’ve been toiling over every little patch we’ve released, but still enjoyed it. Slowly but surely, our team grew and keeps growing. The latest addition to our team is someone to monitor the quality of the English text, or in other words, a Proofreader. It’s only thanks to your generous support that our team can afford to expand. You might know that English isn’t the first language for most of us, and the game has to be translated into it, leading to occasional mistakes, but today that comes to an end. Thank you for your kindness throughout all this time!

Not to the main point.

Last update ended up being finished faster than usual, but included as much content as usual. What awaits you is a couple of new scenes and dialogues, animations and... Wait, isn’t describing the changes of an update the point of a changelog? Here it is, by the way!

Changelog: High priority:

• Trash collection
• Minigame (trash collection)
• Splish-splash (Guardian essence)
• Stuck in wall animation 1

Medium priority:

• Ursadon sprite
• Pregnant QoB sprite

Low priority:

• Bug fixes
• Added older scenes (update 28) to the gallery
• Some small improvements

Let’s now talk about the changes in more detail.

Added: Mute buttons for music and SFX, it’s an obvious feature, perhaps you have to focus on something else for a moment, reply to a message, dragging bars is rather inconvenient, and we also found ourselves using these buttons a lot.

Added: Enter hotkey to confirm a choice. Also an obvious feature, but adding it late is better than never. This is also a minor improvement to help with Yes/No choice menus, pressing Enter will now be the same as choosing Yes.

Fixed: one of Sarah’s clones somehow survived and closely watched her during the Feeding 2 scene. It goes without saying how weird that looked... and where did these clones even come from...

Fixed: another clone broke free and stalked Sarah when she was satisfying the Zergling’s need. Is this a rebellion?

Fixed: no more fractions in translation progress — only integers, hardcore mode! I don’t think anyone cared about the precision of those numbers anyway, but now the menu will look better!

Fixed: hints now look better. Another change to make the menus look cleaner.

In one of the recent posts we promised to share an idea we had regarding the minigame — time to follow through. What if you could share your score in the trash collection minigame with others? Or at least easily copy the score. We thought it was a cool idea and might help our fanbase be more cohesive. Share your results and try to beat our records! Here are our achievements!

Arthur managed to gain 545 points!

Ivar, our selfless and relentless guardian of not straying too far from StarCraft lore got 350 points.

Your favorite community manager earned a whole of 390 points.

We are looking forward to seeing your results too! We are thinking of integrating this into the game to make submitting your score a process consisting of just two clicks.

To finish this up, wow, this was quite a long post, wasn’t it? We want to once again thank you for supporting us and for your patience while we work on an update. It’s rare everything goes to plan, even rarer under external influence, but we’ll manage, like we did before. We said earlier that “we are stronger together”. We hope you have all your important business done for now and can dedicate your attention to a new version of SlutCraft. It’s a product of hard work and passion, and we would be glad if you could appreciate it.

That’s all, thanks for reading. We continue toiling away, now towards the 30th update. We have some special plans for it! Make sure to comment if you have anything to say, we always read your messages and listen to what you have to say. Love you! ❤️

Yours, Shadow Portal Team
