Sepia Oulomenohn Games released a new game called Latex Island and the version is 1.1.6 Demo. The game’s story is about Latex Island Lathe is an apprentice imperial summoner, and not a very good one at that. But when a botched ritual sends her to a mysterious island, host to both the ruins of a lost civilization and an amnesiac imperial colony, she finds herself wrapped up in conspiracy, conquest, and the all-encompassing embrace of latex. Features a novel sensory system, involving sight, sound, scent, and the restriction thereof, as well as the promise of erotic puzzles and scenes focused around a nervous but eager main character.
From v1.0.11 to v1.1.6 WARNING: You will need to start a new save from the beginning. Changes to the tutorial region and introduction will break the game otherwise. Skip for Tutorial is pending.

Various other bugs and issues
Known issues:
Invisible events and events that have ‘left the scene’ still produce sounds and scent particles
Can stand awkwardly on the tip of a fern on the tutorial cave overlook. Will keep this bug unfixed
Can get stuck inside walls when jumping in weird ways in the jump tutorial
Visual clipping through certain decorative pillars
Visual clipping through certain stair tiles
