The response to the Modified update has been great so far! Thanks to everyone who's gotten involved and decided to add (or remove) things to (or from) their body. This update fixes some of the problems that have been reported, and we've also made the New flesh card a little more interesting. The next bigger update will be Zara, but there will be more body modifications and NPC interactions around them soon. Very near future ones might include:

• Devil horns.
  
• Split tongue.
  
• Tongue piercings.
  
• More top surgery options.
  

In the meantime, if you feel like filling in this very short project survey, there's an access code for 20 credits waiting for you at the end:

The long-awaited body modification system is now out. This includes small things such as piercings, as well as larger modifications. Also in this update, we've got tattoos and a lot of new and previewed jewellery.

The initial list of new modification options we've got is relatively modest, but now that the system is done it'll be relatively easy to add new ones. A lot of what's new is NPC interactions, especially with your romantic partner, if you have one. You can't just go and get pointed ears or a bridal bar and expect them to be okay if you didn't mention it to them first. There will be more of these in future too.

Lastly, we've got a special access code to go with this release, for a unique spike related to body modding. It'll be valid until 2024-06-13.

[h3]Body modification incoming[/h3]
Most of the development work at the moment is going into delivering the long-awaited body modification update, which is currently in testing. However, we're still putting out new content and fixes in the meantime. Part of the push for background work at the moment is improving cards you see regularly (especially towards the beginning of the game) more interesting. This includes things such as implant and temperament cards and regular in-deck locations such as A coffee stall. Depending on the card, you might see more options, small semi-randomised cycles of content on the card and more random events (the last especially at specific locations).

As for the main body modification update, this is very close now. Probably next week.

[h3]Accessibility[/h3]
We've also added some accessibility improvements, in terms of more keyboard shortcuts for navigating and playing open cards (you can see the full list of keyboard shortcuts in the main menu). The long term plan for accessibility is still to implement a console interface for typed commands, but in the short term we're planning on adding more smaller tweaks and shortcuts. Near future plans include:

• Full shortcut-accessible descriptions of the requirements for playing each branch of an open card.
  
• New interface for bundling items (this will be generally better anyway).
  
• Better keyboard navigation for the main elements of the story tab.
