Update 12
🕑 Added 2023-04-13 11:02:08 +0000 UTCHey everyone,
I updated itch with the new release.
This update is pretty packed with a lot of small changes, especially in the technical level. I hope this will get rid of a lot of painfull little annoyings bugs!
The UI is finally done ! I hope this will look far more polished than the previous version and that you'll like it.
And the arcade is finally open, nearly one year after the area was released. This took time but I hope it will be worth it. The mini-game is pretty experimental, so I'm curious to hear about your feedback, especially balance (difficulty but also token gained : is that too much, too little?). Since you can switch back arcade token to money, this also provide another source of infinite income, which is good for the game economy.
I'm also pretty happy about the questline that I did for the diaper club. This is less gamy and more narrative based, and I hope you'll enjoy it.
As usual,you can find the latest build at the usual link on itch (https://abdlsparrow.itch.io/the-pacifier-project-minor-releases/patreon-access ).
As noted in my previous post, I divided the release in two builds :
- The 0.3.4a contains all the performance improvement
- The 0.3.4b contains no culling
Thoses who which to cross-test can download both and get back to me if there's no changes/notables changes. Otherwise, just go straight for the 0.3.4a.
Edit : I updated the 0.3.4a build with a fix which make the diary appear again when you hit the button. Sorry about this !

Comments
Haha yeah indeed this is a good point. It shouldn't be too hard to implement but I'll have to make a new equipment slot. No hard promise on a fixed date but I might be able to squeeze something in the next update, depending if I find good assets to use.
