Novus Operandi Game Design released a new game called Sanctuary in Time and the version is 1.5.8. The game’s story is about Your father’s just been murdered. He was the God of Time. Now, it’s your turn! Save damsels from dark corners of history; train them as warriors, courtesans, or workers. Build your forces. Expand & upgrade your citadel. And survive the enemies that seek your death!
v1.5.8
Sex System Overhauled & Expanded!
- Infrastructure Overhaul. Performed a significant overhaul of the underlying, structural code that comprises the sex system. This code was some of the oldest in the game, with parts of it dating back to the earliest days of project development, so there were lots of behind-the-scenes improvements I was able to make. This infrastructure overhaul now makes it easier for me to both maintain and add new content to this system.
- Updated Labels for All Choices. The labels attached to all sex dialogue choices have been redesigned for better clarity. In particular, who is performing an action and what type of action is being performed should be much clearer.
- Fresh Edit for All Sex Scenes. All 40+ actions of the various sex dialogues have received a fresh edit for their scenes. This was done with an eye toward improving readability and adding more variety. I’ve also added new alternate scenes and procedural elements to make reading these repeatable actions more engaging.
- Updated Arousal Descriptions. When a follower transitions from one state of arousal into another, the text displayed is now more immersive. Instead of seeing ‘Her arousal has changed from {previous_state} to {new_state}’, you will now be treated to a full description of her increasing physical arousal (as it pertains to the flush of her cheeks, pertness of her nipples, and visibility of her juices).
- Updated Orgasm Results. The text displayed after a follower’s orgasm has been updated in a few key ways. First, it’s now less wordy, and second, only a single character stat will be affected by any given orgasm. A random stat will be chosen from 3 possibilities: their courtship skill, their love for the player, or their sexual preference for the given gender.
- New Color-Coded Text. Color-coding has also been added to the text for arousal state descriptions (proceeding from yellow to orange to green), orgasm descriptions (purple), and the after-effects of a follower’s orgasm (green).
New Cunnilingus Choices!
A new set of choices is now available which allows the player to slip between their partner’s thighs and perform cunnilingus. This position can now be assumed while standing together or laying side-by-side.
- Tease Her Clit with Tongue.
- Suck Her Clit.
- Lick & Suck Her Lips.
- Finger Vagina Slowly. (Includes variant text that recognizes if the partner is still a virgin.)
- Finger Vagina Firmly. (Only available if partner is not still a virgin.)
New Deepthroat Choices!
Alongside the standard (i.e. gentler) oral sex options, you can now find rougher, deepthroat options as well. (Options for deepthroat actions only appear if partner’s inhibitions are low enough, or their love or sex drive is high enough to override those inhibitions.)
- Thrust Roughly – Deepthroat. A new repeatable action for thrusting roughly (and deeply) in the partner’s mouth. (Includes multiple procedural elements for scene variety.)
- New Climax Choices: Two new options for the player’s orgasm are now available during oral sex. You can optionally climax on the partner’s face or inside their mouth, while using rougher, deepthroat actions.
Other New Sex Choices!
- State That You Love Her. If you feel so inclined, you can now profess the fullness of your feelings to your partner. (Multiple procedural elements are present for variety in output.)
- New Penetration Choice: Pull Out & Push Back In. A new choice is now available (during vaginal and anal sex) to pull out and then shortly afterward push back in, with a few variants for what is done in between. (This is now a distinct action from repeated thrusting, with the text for that action redesigned for a better flow.)
- New Private Quarters Choice: Lead to Shower. When you take a girlfriend or wife back to your private quarters, you can now choose to hop in the shower together for a bit of soapy fun.
Updates to ‘Look Closer’ Choice
- ‘Look Closer’ now describes sex position. The [Look Closer] choice is now available in all major & minor sexual positions (where previously, it was only available during foreplay). And it has been updated to include a brief description of the current sex position held.
- ‘Look Closer – Nude’ now describes wings (if worn). During sex dialogues and inspection dialogues, if a follower’s outfit includes wings and those wings are still being worn, despite the follower being otherwise nude, those wings will now be included in the nudity description.
- New Dressing Choice: Display Her Wings. During dialogues that include item-by-item undressing, a new choice is now available to re-activate a follower’s holographic wings after they’ve been deactivated. This means that wings can now be optionally turned on or off at any point during sex.
Pregnancy Updates
- More Info in Fertility Menu. The progress of a follower’s current pregnancy is now displayed in the Fertility Menu (number of weeks advanced & current trimester).
- Lactation Scenes! The scenes displayed during sex when the MC sucks on their partner’s nipples will now include descriptions of lactation, so long as the partner is currently pregnant and 18 weeks or more advanced.
Misc. Updates
- Updated All Labels for Inspection Choices. The labels used for choices in this dialogue have also been updated for better clarity, and to better match the labeling used in the newly-updated sex dialogue.
- Removed weekly energy cost of the Caretakers Quarters, so as to make the energy saved by these followers more impactful. (As suggested by player feedback.)
- Updated the introductory main story event. The initial scene (where the beast first bursts into the MC’s home) is now broken into 3 smaller scenes, each with a pair of choices to make.
- Updated the HOW TO PLAY message displayed on a new game start. Also updated its twin in the Tutorials Menu.
- Fixed minor bug in follower inspections that would prevent the ‘Inspect Abs & Hips’ choice from transitioning to more intimate choices (when that transition should otherwise be available).
Features
- A text-based, narrative driven experience. Features both a hand-crafted main story campaign as well as procedurally generated side story content that occurs randomly.
- Turn-based action. Inspect and manage your followers, give them duty assignments to perform, then advance time to see the results of your choices.
- Choose the path of strength, persuasion, or both! Train your followers to be well-muscled warriors who fight to defend your life, or guide them down the paths of diplomacy and the loving arts so they can serve as peace-making priestesses instead. It’s entirely up to you!
- Customize your followers. The more devoted your followers become, the more willing they are to follow your instructions. Unlock new tiers of customization options (and intimacy!) as your followers advance in your service.
- Be the new God of Time. Use the technology of your Celestial forebears to pluck women in distress from the darkest recesses of Earth’s history. Save them from fates worse than death and earn their eternal gratitude!
