Hello everyone 🖤
Another Early Access update is ready.
This release introduces one of the biggest customization features we've worked on so far: Custom Pose Mode. Alongside it comes a brand-new lingerie set, continued boss development, and another round of polish and quality-of-life improvements across the game.
While some of the additions are immediately visible, others improve systems that will continue to grow over the coming updates. Custom Pose Mode in particular is only the beginning we're already building the foundation for features like saving and loading custom poses in future releases.
Let's take a look at what's new.
One of the most requested screenshot and customization features has finally arrived.
Custom Pose Mode allows you to manually pose your concubine & companions in detail, using an interactive control rig. Individual body parts can now be repositioned and rotated, making it possible to create poses far beyond the limitations of preset animations.
We've spent a lot of time improving how the controls behave. Rotation now follows the character's own orientation instead of world space, resulting in much more natural movement especially around the spine, neck, and head.
Several usability improvements have also been made, including:
Translation, rotation, or combined gizmo modes
X-Ray mode for hidden controls
Hide gizmos for clean screenshots
Improved default control placement for many poses
More intuitive knee and elbow controls
While this is only the first version of the system, we're already exploring ideas like sharing custom poses through the Steam Workshop and even bringing posed characters into the decoration system as display statues.
No customization update would be complete without a new outfit.
This update introduces the Red Seductress Lingerie Set, featuring a bold crimson design paired with matching gloves and stockings for a striking new look.
Alongside the outfit itself, we've also added dedicated equipment and inventory icons to keep the growing collection of lingerie organized and visually consistent.
As always, expanding player customization remains one of our major goals, and we already have additional ideas planned for future updates.
Combat development continues steadily behind the scenes.
Alamet and Salome has received another significant round of work, including new attack animations and expanded combat behavior.
While some of the underlying gameplay logic is still being finalized, these additions represent another important milestone toward turning these bosses into a fully realized boss encounter.
Every update brings the fight closer to its final form, and we're excited to continue sharing its progress as development moves forward.
Alongside the headline features, this update also includes a number of smaller improvements across the game.
These include environment polish, lighting improvements, visual refinements, and several bug fixes to improve the overall gameplay experience.
We've also continued refining character customization assets and improving overall presentation throughout the game.
Custom Pose Mode is only getting started.
Now that the core system is in place, we'll be focusing on expanding its functionality while continuing development on new combat encounters, environments, and customization options.
We're also planning to begin work on a new level for an upcoming update, expanding the world of Concubine with another location to explore.
Looking a little further ahead, we'd like to spend much of August focusing on Controller Support. It's one of the features we know many players have been waiting for, and we're looking forward to giving it the attention it deserves.
Some of the areas we're currently exploring include:
Controller Support
Pose Saving & Loading
A New Level
New Boss Encounters
More Lingerie Sets
As always, development priorities may shift as we continue testing and gathering community feedback, but we're excited to share more as these features take shape.
Thank you for your continued support, feedback, screenshots, bug reports, and suggestions.
Every update helps shape the future of Concubine, and we're looking forward to sharing even more in the updates ahead.
🖤
The Team ⚔️
