List of changes in LS 0.97.5.5:
Added:
Quest log:
— Now updated quests are moved to the beginning of the Quest log;
— Added the new quest category "maximum in the current version is achieved", to make it easier to navigate in the Quest log;
— You can see the stages of completion of already completed quests;
— Added a 'completion/maximum in the current version' indicator for many quests from the previous versions (20+ quests) (should work with old saves as well);
— Added the "Back" button, leading to the root of the quests list from the log of a particular quest.
Balance:
— The guards will calm down a bit with their night raids. The interval between roundups has been increased from 3-7 days to 7-10, the first roundup will occur two weeks after the start of the game, instead of three days, as before. Also, the maximum fine for resisting guards has been reduced from 300 coins to 200.
Fixed:
— A bug that sometimes causes crashes in Betsy's masturbation control events. The whole system is now more stable.
— 'les' bug during Betsy and Emma's event in the stocks (also made changes to avoid similar errors in the future).
— Scylla no longer takes off her mask at inappropriate moments.
— Some (minor) episodes did not activate on the Lake.
— Betsy no longer gives silver plates in the middle of a conversation, only after receiving the task.
— Wrong layers order in the scene with Emma and Belle in the garden with the Tentacle Tree.
— Misprints, mistakes in texts and localization in English.
The next (content) version LS 0.97.5.6 is planned to be released in February 2023. Gaston's return to the town is coming! ^__^ It will be quite soon, so stay in touch, guys.
Thanks a lot for your support! And we are back to work on the next content version


List of changes in LS 0.97.5.4: - 2022.12.25

Added:
— Continuation of the Tentacle Tree line:
— The Beast decided to look into the city. IMPORTANT! This event will only happen if Belle has already slept with the Beast. This event is for $5 and $10+ patrons, so be sure to activate your code before starting the Tentacle Tree line or loading a save from the previous version.
— Belle decided to milk the Tentacletree at night, but forgot to take the smoker… what happened?
— The first version of the scene with Belle on the Tentacle Tree. Now you can choose yourself what and how the insidious tree will do with her.
— The mechanics of wet grass in the garden depending on the rains and the time elapsed after them... Yes, we know that this important mechanic was really missing in our game and we finally added it! ^__^

Fixed and corrected:
- In the previous scenes with the Tentacle tree, it was not taken into account that Belle may no longer be a virgin;
- The sound of rain in some situations remained in the garden after the end of the Tentacle Tree line;
- Character sprites were not reset after some events, which could cause Belle to have tears and blush in inappropriate scenes, for example;
- A number of typos, errors, problems with localization;

In the next versions 0.97.5.x will be added:
— Exclusive bonus content for $10+ patrons;
— New events in the Reading Room;
— A mini-game where the Tentacle tree catches agile (but not dexterous enough!) bipedal females!
— The main mechanics of the game for the Tentacle tree, tied, among other things, to the weather.

The next version 0.97.5.6 is supposed to be released in January 2023, so stay tuned guys! Soon the additional questline on behalf of the Tentacle tree will be completed and we will return to the main plot (and Gaston, accordingly, will return to the town ^__^).

We are very grateful to you for your support in this difficult year, guys. Now we have the opportunity to work more on our projects, so we look forward with optimism. Let the New Year be as good for all of us as possible!


Fix LS 0.97.5.11 - 2022.11.14
Corrections:
Error in fights with str_list
Bug in some scenes with transitions between sprites
Various minor fixes

v.0.97.5.1
We are starting to publish LS 0.97.5 content. Given the circumstances, we release this version by parts and each one will give you something to look at. Today the first one is: LS 0.97.5.1. This version should work well with previous saves. But, as usual, it's better to make a backup or don't overwrite all of them.

For all patrons/subscribers: Gaston is temporarily absent from the city... But life in the city does not stop for this time. You have a unique opportunity to try to spend a few days on behalf of the Tentacle Tree! What events will happen to him? Which of the townspeople will be able to get acquainted with an inquisitive plant?

Important: to trigger these events, Gaston must sell at least half of the books from the initial stock, and also be familiar with Betsy and become her "teacher" in the thieving business. Also, Belle was supposed to have had sex with Tentacletree already. After that, Gaston will have the idea of the trip for new books.

In addition, most of Belle's forest adventures with the Beast from previous versions are now available to all patrons / subscribers.

For $5+ patrons/subscribers: Belle's full forest adventure with the Beast (including Gaston's special reward). In future versions, you will receive additional bonus content with Belle and Tentacle tree.

For $10+ patrons/subscribers: Bonus special option for the Tentacle Tree when interacting with Betsy... Plus a surprise ending to this scene. Further, in the 2nd part of the current version, i.e. v 0.97.5.3 (which will be released within 2 weeks), you will receive a whole chain of events on behalf of the Tentacle Tree.
Password for all patrons/subscribers to receive the starting bonus:

new chapter

Important: in LS 0.97.5.2, the Tentacle Tree line will continue. We have a number of additional events for it, which are in the "almost ready" state, but which we simply did not have time to add to this version for known reasons.

We will also be bringing back the currently cut Tentacle Tree resource management and the Belle capture mini-game (which we may be expanding to other heroes as well). We thought it would be wise to add this gameplay to the game after all the planned scenes become available.

As we said, we have quite a lot of 'near-done' content right now, and we're in the process of moving it into the 'release-ready' category right now. So by the end of this year we're going to release a couple more content versions (not counting the expected fixes and patches). Their content planned by us:

1. All events of the Tentacle Tree questline (yes, with Belle too ^__^). As well as the opportunity to get the "Day of the Triffids" achievement. :D

2. Game mechanics related to the Tentacle Tree.

3. The dog and the development of his plot.

4. New locations: Hunters' Guild and Mayor's garden.

5. Continuation of the reading room, scenes and events in it.

New content version, LS 0.97.5.2 will be released before the end of next week.

We are very grateful for your support during this difficult time, guys! And we will try to do our best to thank you with entertaining events, scenes and quests in our game. Right now, the new Tentacle Tree line is the largest volume of the plot in 'The Library Story'. And we've just started publishing it.

As usual, write about all the errors found to xallat8@yandex.ru or to the PM.

Special thanks to those who helped us with translation, proofreading, testing and so on and so forth, namely: Zellemate, Someones, Ross, Rwede, Vielstern, New D. and T&T!

v0.97.31
- Important! The bug related to f_music_place() and, accordingly, loading locations under certain conditions is fixed.
- Important! It was not the best decision to close access to the Hunters Guild at night :D. Now access to the telescope at night is open again. By the way, in the next version (LS 0.97.5) the Hunters Guild will be added as a separate location, hence, now this is a temporary solution. Patch LS 0.97.31
- The "Fear of the Charmed Ones" potion was not consumed while using in battle, and after the first use, the skill continued to be displayed in battles where the Beast's helpers were already absent. Corrected.

New mechanic - sexual activity counter. So far, it applies only to Belle's masturbation and sex with her. Affects some specific parameters. The mechanics will evolve.

Fixes:

Now if you "to leave a trail" in Belle's bedroom at night, the window will not become inaccessible. On the contrary, it leads to a chain of new events.

The meeting with Lumiere is no longer tied to Emma's storyline. It is activated one week after the start of the game (during a regular visit to the Laboratory).

Simple lockpicks can now be purchased from the Thief.

Sometimes the light from the basement of Belle's house was displayed during the days when Maurice was not working there. Fixed.

In some scenes, during pauses, clicking on the interface elements could break the script logic. Fixed.

Many fixes and improvements for events and mechanics from previous versions of the game.

UPD2: In version 0.95.54:
Changes:
The interface of buy/sell menu is improved: graphic buttons and a slider for quick setting the required amount of items are added.
Improved loading of locations (they load faster, in addition, the problem with loading different layers at different times is partially fixed, which allows the objects appear synchronously)

Fixed:
Bug: Couldn't find file 'img/chars/emma/new/stocks/EMM_displeased.png'
Bug when trying to enter the FAQ section in the start menu

v0.95
contains tentacle quest + sidequest with thief. seperate from full game. will be combined with full game with part 2 in april

v.0.94B
The Library Story tentacle tree edition release
Hello friends!
This time, Honolulu did not fail, so, first, the main thing:
Please note: this version is designed solely to demonstrate some new content of the tentacle tree storyline. For a simplified start, part of the other quests is considered completed, and Belle has “fixed” parameters, so do not try to pass other quests - you may encounter bugs in the logic of the game. In fact, to view the new content you need only two locations: Belle's house and the garden. For the rest, it is still the same version 0.94, to which we transferred the part of the new content from v.0.95.
For this version no passwords are needed, we release it only for you, our patrons, so all bonuses are included ino the game by default.
Here are two starting points. One from the moment when Belle started milking tentacles, for those who want to remember what happened there before. The second right before the start of new content.
An important point - we transferred to this version about a half of the tentacle-related content from LS 0.95. Behind the scenes there are two mini-games, the Gaston-defender part (with excellent rewards from the damsel in distress!), the line with another character who will also closely meet the tentacle-tree in 0.95 ... In general, you'll have a decent amount of content to see in the upcoming release, even in this storyline, not to mention others.
Thanks for your patience and support, guys. The big release 0.95 is on the way, so we definitely have some other work needs to be done. Stay in touch!

v.0.94
Now in 'The Library Story' we have the following situation: there are two parallel versions of the game. The first one - the continuation of 0.93b, with a number of changes in mechanics, but at the moment it's almost unplayable because of a bunch of bugs, unfinished mechanics and not fully coordinated quests from the previous content. And the second - is current version 0.94, which we prepared separately to show you new content. In this version (0.94), we added a new full quest for $5+ patrons (be sure to follow the link, guys, it says how to activate this quest), and unlocked the previous $5+ quest for the rest patrons. Also in this version, the Gallery of original outfits has been updated and several new books have been added to the shelf of Gaston's library (according to the wishes of some patrons).
As you remember, we took three additional days, hoping to finalize the interactive episode (for Gaston's Training Quest) ... But despite this extra time, we still couldn't finish this storyline on time. Too many bugs and inconsistencies with Gaston's Training quest as a whole :(. That's why, this version turned out small (less than we planned) and with new content only for patrons. However, it's supposed to work with old saves from 0.93b.
As we've already mentioned, after releasing of LS 0.94, we planned to concentrate all our energies on preparing of the big version LS 0.95. But considering that we have not released the promised educational interactive now, we'll prepare the addition of version 0.94 by the end of January (in version 0.94b). This version will also work with old 0.93b saves, so you'll be able easily try the new content. After that, we can start the preparation of version 0.95.
In order to activate the bonus quest, enter the patrons password in starting menu:

About all bugs write to xallat8@yandex.ru
We also want to say a special thank you:
Ruzi (www.patreon.com/Ruzi) for translation
Wielstern, L'Tar and 55Next for participating in testing the game
It was a difficult year (very difficult) and we made within it less than planned :(. One of the reasons of this was the need to rework and standardize the already finished material from the previous versions (and my work on two projects, of course, also: IQD spent an amazingly long time)
Now we are trying to look with optimism to the new year and we hope that LS 0.95 will turn out the way we are planning it. We've already done a lot for this and plan to do more.
Thanks a lot for your support, guys! Stay in touch: as early as January, you can play the very “big” interactive for Gaston's Training Quest (In addition it is noticeably different from the previous ones in LS).
P.S. Invisibility cloak quest
Enter patron's password. It opens the additional bonus storyline. If you did everything right, then just go to the magic laboratory.
In total, your goal can be 4 girls (Belle 2 times). Emma - just come to her in the tavern. Belle in the bedroom - you know where to go. Ariel on the lake - it's enough only to learn about her existence. Betsy dines several times a week in the back room of the tavern with her father. Belle is on the lake - a week after the start of the game, find out through the rumors that she goes to the lake and wait for notification in the morning about a suitable day.
Hi friends!
Welcome to 'The Library Story' 0.94!


v.0.93b
Changelog:

Fixed:

Error "list.remove (x): x not in list" appearing during the meetings of Belle and Ariel on the lake;

In additional quest for $ 5+ patrons, Gaston could complete a part of Ariel's quest before getting to know her;

The situation when Gaston's training quest got interrupted after Belle taking 'The Magic Textbook ';

In some variants of passing of Princess Peach's quest the wooden club could disappear from the inventory.

Links for LS 0.93 in the release posts are already replaced by LS 0.93b

0.93 Changelog:

In this version you'll see the continuation and the "real" ending of Gaston's training quest, the big development of the Lake location (now Belle will regularly visit it and different things will happen there)."
==============================ENG:
Belle has difficulties with paying for books. The event is activated in the library. New opportunities open at 100, 200 corrupting, and after completing the quest for Bed Skills Level 2 and collecting of at least 3 arguments for persuading Belle. Arguments can be obtained by going through the following quests: tentacle tree, magic bra, activated exhibitionism (for patrons), masturbation Belle, storyline with Ariel. The final scenes of this quest is affected by the Bed Skills parameter (200-250 and more than 250).
Belle spends time on the lake. Wait for rumors about it a week from the beginning of the game. Be sure to activate patron's password, because a significant part of the variants of events is tied to exhibitionism. Events are affected by corruption parameter (<200 and 200+). Some options are opened after activation of the previous ones. Be sure to wait for the second swim of naked Belle!
Ariel again waits for help. Just complete her initial quest (rumors about the mermaid appear after 15 days) and wait a week until she is ready to accept help.
