Lab Rats 2 v0.18.1 Public Release!
Added 2019-07-08 07:35:13 +0000 UTCv0.18.1 is Live! Get it Here!
UPDATE: v0.18.2 has been released to improve the stability of the new version. It fixes many of the errors and crashes reported in v0.18.1.
Android: Lab Rats 2 v0.182-Android
Lab Rats 2 v0.18.1 has finished it's week of patron bug testing and is ready for it's public release! This new version comes with a hefty change log, with progress along three major fronts. First, Rendering improvements have been made and display methods have been updated, improving clothing and body quality throughout the game. Second, menus and action results have been updated to improve their functionality and player education. Third, new content has been added throughout the game. This new content includes the reintroduction of the Lab Rats 1 character Alexia as well as new dialogue, descriptions, and choices. Across the board the game continues to grow and improve!
Changes to the way character bodies are rendered have eliminated graphical artifacts where the head and body images meet and the image library of character bodies has been re-rendered. Character hairstyles have also been reviewed, with many of the previous hair styles being tweaked to have their contrast or brightness better match the rest of the game. All of these changes are part of an ongoing effort to improve the characters displayed in Lab Rats 2.
Menu functionality and gameplay feedback have received some attention this update. The changes that have been made seek to better inform the player about the results of their actions, as well as to highlight what actions might be possible under different scenarios. The list of sex positions has been changed to highlight the effects of each position will have on a girls corruption, as well as display what positions are possible only due to obedience or are blocked by clothing. The basic work tasks have been updated to display how much you individually produce, and when hovered the tasks now display what stats and skills are important for them. Unhelpful menu options have been trimmed from the game to keep the gameplay choices as clear as possible.
The last and perhaps the most exciting changes, new content has been added throughout the game. Alexia from Lab Rats 1 has been reintroduced, coming back into your life after a year of travel to "find herself". Her personal storyline, which will receive further content in future updates, prompted the addition of relationship statuses for all girls. Some women may already be in a steady relationship or married when you meet them, and corrupting them is more difficult. There is also new content inside of the sex system in the form of condoms. Some girls may ask or demand you put on a condom before having sex. Others, especially as you corrupt them and they become more slutty, may ask you not to use one and to fuck them raw.
I hope you enjoy the update!

Comments
and in version 19.1 the same
2019-08-15 11:39:39 +0000 UTCI'm noticing that when I ask a girl on a date, any attempt to seduce her outside of the date (with or without serum) basically results in 90% sluttiness and doesn't really leave a way to increase her core sluttiness.
2019-07-11 01:56:00 +0000 UTCDid anyone else get an error where "leaving" Stephanie when she offers sex after a month's-wage-bonus leads to an utterly ruined session? No amount of 'ignore' or 'rollback' will remedy that- It's completely dickered. Also, if you want an earlier beta tester with coding and indie experience, more than happy to do so.. I spend a few hours fixing shit here and there with every release anyway.

2019-07-11 01:14:09 +0000 UTCThere is no "angry_Face_1_stand3_white" image in the directory, resulting in a crash when drawn.
2019-07-09 21:35:45 +0000 UTCYou can fix some typos manually!
2019-07-09 20:35:58 +0000 UTCThis version has been really buggy. Issues with the mother event where you can give her an outfit... Gabrielle has been giving me a lot of rollback errors in general... Lots of sex crashes. Will post errors now that I see there is a place to do so.

2019-07-09 14:28:28 +0000 UTCAunt apartment doesn't have any objects allowing you to have sex (not even walls and floor!). That makes aunt seduction extremely bland, since you're restricted to kissing. This also may break the game entirely when attempting to leave such a sex scene (since aunt's attempt to take control fails without an object to have sex on). Also aunt seduction event doesn't clear her arousal - reset_arousal() should be called in the end. (Why don't you move this call into sex_description()? Currently you're resetting it manually after every sex-related event) Also what about some kind of bug tracker or public repository? For example, there are lots of typos which are easier to fix through pull request.
2019-07-09 13:58:26 +0000 UTCThe game crashes hard now if you have wine with your aunt and she tries to seduce you because there are no locations to do anything other than kiss.
