While I appreciate everyone donating to support this project, for god's sake, stop. Please. I have been at work all night, and unable to update the donation amount to reach the goal, and in that time, I've managed to somehow reach a total of $281 donated. Which is obviously well beyond the goal for the rest of the month, not to mention the rest of the week.
So, please. Please stop.
Thank you again for all your support, and rest assured, I really, really do appreciate that everyone is as interested in the game as you obviously are.
I'm not going to turn off donations, so if you want to request something, feel free (especially if you already donated! There are a lot of donations that don't have a request, and I don't want to feel like you're missing out), but if your only intent is to support Cursed then, well, mission accomplished.
I don't want heaps of money! I really don't!
Of actual note: there's a new donations page that outlines how donations work. Check it out.

Update 9/16a
There's no such thing as a bug-free release...
Bug Fixes
- "Get Dressed" now works properly with the new clothing system.
- Adjusted the player description so it will now update everything properly, in theory.
Oh, and just a note: still about $32 from the goal for the week. The stick: Not reaching the goal for this week means no new versions for download next week. The carrot: if you donate, you can request something to be added to the game. And my thanks to all donators and all supporters of this weird-ass project I've got going here.

Update 9/16
It's Bug Fix Friday!
Important Note: You will need to update RAGS to version 2.2.9.0 in order to play this release.
Major Updates
- Changed the way the clothing system works for breasts. Now, you have a slightly wider range for breast size, allowing you to wear clothes after your breasts change size. In addition, when your breasts are at the limit of the range, you'll get a notice and the clothing will be flagged for tailoring, so you can get it altered to your new size while still being able to wear it. I'll work on doing the same for fitness as well in the near future. Note that this is untested, so it could be buggy (but the logic is sound).
Minor Updates
- Changed the green folder to reflect the clothes requirements obliquely.
- Changed the description and name of the secretary outfit to make it clear it's not appropriate for a professional business environment.
- Posing in the mirror now increases your femininity very slightly.
Bug Fixes
- Full transformation will now properly update your player description when you examine yourself (note that the various "inhuman" descriptors disappearing is intended).
- Fixed wing growth to only show once when you max it out, also properly update your wing description.
- Fixed the HDTV to advance time whenever you watch porn.
- Fixed the "Domination" adult movie to react to your choices properly.
- Adjusted the Femininity increase from watching adult movies with the Porn Addict trait.
- Watching adult movies now properly increments the Porn Addict trait.
- Claddagh ring now properly give 1 non-natural charisma and removes 1 non-natural charisma when worn/removed.
- Weight loss powder now properly calls the right variable to show how much is left. Also, yes, the weight loss powder is supposed to make you gain weight. Have you ever heard of a weight loss powder that actually worked? I haven't.
- You can't use the pregnancy test infinitely anymore.

Update 9/15
Yuuuuuup.
Major Updates
- New random encounter "wolf howls". Also tweaked the random encounters that are in the game currently, so that they're a little more evenly likely. Note that "wolf howls" is actually just the beginning of something new, though you can probably figure out what's likely to result from it.
Minor Updates
- Mostly finished the new submissive girl at the bar.
- Magic has been split off into its own section in the Status actions, only visible once you unlock magic. It will also show your current skill with the various magic schools.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed the Induce Lust, Induce Confidence, and Illusion spells so that they should be showing up properly, and you shouldn't be able to buy them more than once (actually true for all spells now).
- Minor tweaks, nothing important.
Note: If you're using RAGS 2.2.9.0, you'll need to update the game files before you can play it. To do so, open the file in RAGS Designer. It will ask for a password, but just cancel out of that. You should be able to open the file in RAGS Player now.

Update 9/14a
Apparently RAGS changed some internal arguments and didn't let me know.
Bug Fixes
- Periods should be working again, and with that, pregnancy.
Also, while I didn't actually get a chance to work on the game, I did come up with a few interesting ideas that I'm going to try to flesh out today and tomorrow.
Finally, since it's important, I have a dentist appointment tomorrow morning to get my teeth drilled. So the stream will be delayed, and when it does come back, I might be mumbling. Or muted. But I will post a notice here when I start streaming, so keep an eye out.

Update 9/14
For all you pregnancy-lovers out there.
Major Updates
- Pregnancy progression is now partially implemented. Alice will comment on it, other people will not. You will notice changes through the pregnancy, however. More on this as I keep adding to the pregnancy system.
Minor Updates
- Added a new spell to the magic shop. Note that although it can be purchased, it's not yet implemented.
- Changed the price of the TV upgrades. The EDTV now costs $250, and the HDTV costs $500. Also properly activated the adult channel option on the HDTV.
- Sunglasses now available to hide your inhuman eyes (or just to wear and look cool).
Bug Fixes
- The overcoat is automatically removed when you go to the Living Room from the Foyer, and when you strip at the strip club changing room.
I'm actually going to try to work on this some more today, so watch this post. I might upload a new version (9/14a or 9/14b) before I go to work today. But don't hold me to that.

Update 9/13
As always, I never get as much done as I want to. I blame Fenoxo for distracting me.
Major Updates:
- The minor, normal and major versions of the alteration spells are now implemented.
- The induce lust, induce luck, and induce confidence spells are now implemented.
Minor Updates:
- The testing item has a new option: Advance Day. This only works in the bedroom, as it essentially does a day ending check at any time of the day.
- The suspicion game over check will now only trigger if your suspicion is greater than 50. Otherwise, people just give you weird looks (if it's greater than 0).
Bug Fixes and Adjustments:
- The testing item has a new option: Show Mana Bar. You can use this at any time, but it is intended to be used when you load a saved game and the mana status doesn't show up properly.
- The Anonymous Donation option of the testing item now adds $1000 instead of $100, to save some clicking time.
- The "Go to the Lab" option now properly deactivates when you turn the mission in to Maria.
- Changed the way the "Status" option activates on the player. Let me know if you like this version better (there are plans to make other options, like dressing, work in a similar way).
Edit: Dammit, I forgot to make the overcoat strip off automatically again. I'll have to do that first thing tomorrow.
Edit 2: Additional good news: the creator of the RAGS engine is going to look and see if there's a way to use saves from older versions of games in newer versions. I'm sure it will take a while, but hey, better than suffering in silence, neh?
