Lab Rats 2 v0.33.0 is finished and ready for it's week of bug testing by patrons! This update brings a dramatic overhaul to the character display method, allowing for groups of characters to all be displayed at the same time. All of the existing events and menus in LR2 have been updated, and in some cases expanded, to make use of this new system. There has also been new content added to the game. There is now a multi-staged family games night event, making use of the new display system, and a new sex dialogue branch has been added to all character types. Finally, there have been a host of bug fixes and continued optimisation improvements.

The new multi-character display system provides the ability to show and multiple girls at once, as well as highlight the current speaker of the group. This system mirrors the previously existing draw methods, which should make it simple for modders to update existing content or integrate new functionality. A significant performance optimisation has also been made, allowing animated characters to be displayed four times faster and with a dramatically reduced performance impact.

v0.33.0 has seen the addition of a large new home event, as well as tweaks and improvements to a large number of existing events. The new home event sees you invited to a family games night including Lily, Jennifer, and Rebecca. There are multiple stages and branching options to this event, and it is likely to see further expansions in future updates. Eleven existing events have been updated to make use of the new multi-character display system, letting you watch multiple girls strip down at once, or keep track of rapid back-and-forth dialogue between characters. Finally, there has been a completely new branch of dialogue added for all characters: girls who like creampies may decide they want you to take off a condom right before you cum.

Enjoy!
