Carnal Instinct changes
Here we have the next Major Content Update for 2022, bringing bug fixes, combat improvements, a new quest and more! After we've covered that, I'll give you an update on our UE5 progress, new WIP Systems and an insight on what we've been working on that's not ready yet.
Liquid Gold
The people of Aneb Village have been experiencing a new drug problem, some bandit trouble lately and their Town Guard has gone missing. Assist the townspeople and find their missing guard.
This quest also brings along with it an early look at the Female Centaur which you will be able to interact with further in a future update.
We don't want to go into too much detail, but we hope you enjoy the quest.
New Sex Scenes
This update we've brought in two new bribe NPCs which can get you out of trouble with the guards. The new scene features a Dom/Sub sex act, the first of many, with 20 new animations. This is the first of several and marks the start of the crime/punishment system that we're building. This is only the beginning of course, and more serious crimes will eventually land you in prison... or at least require much greater "bribes". The new scenes also enable more Male x Male interactions.
These can be found near the docks and if you're ever stuck trying to find a scene, you can always check out the wiki.
New Skins
We now have a Fennec Fox option for female Jackals. Male is in progress and coming soon. In the Pre-Alpha build this is limited to just a material change, altering the fur colour, however when we release Alpha later this year there will be the ability to sport a pair of huge Fennec ears and shrink the muzzle down to match. We considered putting it in sooner, however it's something that is far easier to implement in the overhauled way we've built parts of the game in Unreal Engine 5. We've also added two new skins for the Male Draconid, "Ashen" and "Primevil".
New Shield
This Carapace Shield is a new equipment item to mix up your outfit. (PSA: Please wash your hands after using this item. The CI development team accept no liability of any fantastical diseases contracted by holding the brainstem of a huge bug for a prolonged period)
UE5 Dev Blog/Behind the Scenes
Full Changelog will be found at the end of the blog, but first, a UE5 Development Blog/Update:
Stats
The Unreal Engine 5 version of Carnal Instinct now features a much deeper approach to the RPG elements of the game. The code for this is almost complete, the artwork is not. We want to give some idea of the updated character screen, though of course please bear in mind that this is "programmer art" using stock visuals in place of our own UI (being designed at the moment). The layout will obviously change, as will what is displayed by default, but this should give some idea of direction. It's worth noting that some stats which we have working are still missing from this screen, such as virility and fertility, but fear not they will be present.
Lore Updates
We've spent a lot of time codifying lore. Whilst we had out main story and the key narrative of the world set out from the start, over time we adjusted and changed elements which allowed contradictions to creep in. Additionally there
