Hey guys, we've got a small balance patch ready to go for this game that includes a few bug fixes and quality of life changes.
Please note that this is not the content update mentioned in other posts but it should hopefully make the game a bit smoother for players in the mean time. We'll be sure to let you guys know as soon as we have info on the new character and items.
New Content
- Added option to link breast size to overall capacity instead of current fullness: Max effective capacity is 800. Anything after that will no longer increase the breast size but will still continue to function for milk collection. The reason for this is that absurdly large breasts start to mess with the game’s visuals. Along with this, the maximum visual size for breasts when using the Mega Milkers has been slightly increased. This is as big as we can make them for Mira but a future character is probably going to be even larger. Toggling this option can be done through the settings menu under the gameplay tab.
Polish
- Rebalanced Various Items: The Golden Set has had its values distributed more evenly between its different parts. Prior to this update, each clothing piece was mostly focused on one stat. By more evenly distributing their bonuses, players can benefit from a single piece as soon as it’s acquired instead of needing multiple ones. Some toys like the Ball Gag and Heavy Chains now have stat bonuses linked to them.
- Adjusted drop rate for some items that had it too low
- Added resizable window and locked aspect ratio to 16:9 Unity gave us some trouble by suddenly removing the option of enforcing aspect ratios. Had to use a workaround to get the windowed mode working properly. Toggling windowed mode can be done with Alt+Enter but we will later try to add a settings menu toggle.
- Adjusted Milk Man Achievement: The achievement is now granted as soon as you find all of the hidden gnomes. Previously, it required finding the gnomes and cycling through the camera but this was too obscure. (The easter egg is still there.)
- Added Achievement Redundancy Check: This is mostly to account for players bringing saves over from other platforms like itch io. Some achievements were only triggered once when a milestone was reached and if a player loaded an existing save, that achievement would remain locked. In order to get your achievements to trigger with an existing save, simply load into the milking scene with Mira. Some achievements like outfit combinations will require re-equipping the items or re-using something specific. Please let us know if you are still having achievement problems after this update.
- Added no branding button to Steam version for the achievement: Some players didn’t want to brand their hucow but still wanted to 100% the game. You can now push a button in the settings to trigger the achievement without permanently branding Mira.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed Text Wrapping on Stat ToolTip: English users had the word “Production” breaking the display.
- Fixed Stat Bug Related to Tool Items: Some tool items weren’t working properly. Pregnancy would apply stat bonuses when used but they would be reset if the player removed other equipment. Thigh Strapped Vibrator was not affecting stats at all.
Known Issues
- There is a bug sometimes when activating Golden Mode that soft locks the game on the white transition screen: This was reported by one player but I have been unable to replicate it during testing. I made an adjustment that I think may have been causing the problem but don’t want to call it fixed just yet. Please let us know if you run into this issue with any details that may have caused it. Exiting to the main menu fixes the problem as a workaround.
- Thermostat sometimes causes sweat to remain on boobs and pregnant belly: Also have been having problems replicating this one.
- Some languages do not display the new stat bonuses in the item descriptions yet: Localization will be updated in the content update later this year. This only applies to DE, FR and JP. EN and ES are updated.
Additional Notes
- We experimented with adding a gold currency that is collected along with every completed milk bottle, but making a feature like this intuitive will require a bit more time. We’ve left the current system in place but will properly revisit this idea while working on the content update. We’re just not happy with the current RNG roll mechanic being the only way to obtain items.
- We are open to requests for future items or mechanics that players may want to see. We cannot guarantee everything but we'll do our best to include popular requests.
Thank you for Milking our hucow and please don't hesitate to reach out with any issues!
