Defending Lydia Collier v.0.20 release date changed to 24th January.

Hello everybody!

I just wanted to let you all know, as the title says, I'm moving the release date to January 24th, rather than this Saturday, I'm also changing it from "v.0.17.1" to "v.0.20".

Firstly, why the delay.

There's no problems or issues at all, everything is done and there are some further previews attached of the new scenes, it could do with a little further testing but the main thing is there's just a big plot hole that's emerged and I want to make a further additional scene to fill it.

Pushing the date back to next Saturday gives me the week to make this additional scene, code it in and also gives a little bit more time to test the full thing.

Spoilers for v.0.20!

In the poll, Ellie won with her Bimbofication scene, so I've made that, however it's opened a big plot hole.

To stop the player being teleported as its being fitted in retroactively, I've had Dr Deleanu come to Lydia's during her pool party to take some pictures of Ellie.

However, there's the Ellie/Lydia path that can be active at this point, and it has just been really bugging me that Lydia has this famous plastic surgeon at her home, set up to take photos of Ellie to see herself bimbofied like what happened with Steph... and then she doesn't go and see what she's look like bimbofied herself.

Lydia is super rich, she's trying to be more noticeable and sexy, and she is having sex and intimate with the girl talking about getting her boobs done, she just wouldn't not even talk to the Doctor and let's her leave.

Lydia would go and see her, even if it was just with a camaraderie aspect with Ellie of "well why don't I see what I could look like, it wouldn't hurt." and it feels off playing through it without having bringing Lydia in afterwards as an option.

So, there will now be an additional scene and the start of Lydia's Bimbo Path, leading into a Bimbo Ending for her if that's what you desire.

I'm going to add this both Lydia/Ellie and also do it for Lydia Solo as well to make it as accessible as possible, and that's the reason for the delay.

I've spent so long and so much time on this update, I don't want to drop it incomplete and in a state where I've got a real nagging problem with the story, and given that Bimbofying Ellie was the top result in the poll, I'm guessing doing the same to Lydia will be relatively popular.

Why the change from v.0.17.1 to v.0.20?

This is because I've completely recoded the game, and I want to stress what this means.

Absolutely nothing from v.0.17 or earlier is compatible with v.0.20.

Mods, walk-throughs, guides, saves, gallery unlocks, translations, you name it, it will bug out your game if you add it to v.0.20, and changing the 1 to a 2 just more clearly shows a version difference, anything with "v.0.1x" is old, "v.0.2x" is current.

The game has a built in walk-through now, so you don't need a third party one, but everything has been recoded and old one's won't work.

It might be a real pain in the ass for anybody that's made anything, I'm sorry about that, but everything is now structured day by day and it's a hell of a lot better to work with as a result.

To recap, what is coming with v.0.20, now coming on January 24th:

Entire game recoded, fixing the phone and laptop.

Official, up to date in-game walk-through added.

New websites, new, missions and a lot of information about the story.

Tweaks and small improvements to dialogue throughout the entire game.

Two new dates with Lydia, and an accompanying new bedtime scene.

New scene with Tiffany down in Lydia's dungeon.

New scenes with Emma and Samantha at the restaurant.

Bimbo paths and scenes for both Ellie and Lydia during Lydia's pool party.

New scene in the office with an even skimpier Ellie.

New scene with Tanya.

New discoverable pictures on the game's website for Fleur, Tanya and Chloe.

Apologies for anybody really wanting to play this weekend, if you have been a subscriber for a while and do want to join the Alpha testing team, shoot me a message on Discord and I can add you as most of the update will go into Alpha testing this weekend and you can see some of the new scenes there.

Thanks again for the new and continued support, check X or Discord for a Bimbo Lydia preview during the week, and v.0.20 will be out next Saturday!
