Better formatted post with more screenshots
Hey guys!
It’s time we touched base and updated you with what’s going on behind the scenes and what you can expect from future updates. What we won’t be discussing here is the future story or errand content as we feel it’s nice to keep some things as a surprise. We’re also going to hold back on talking about anything we have planned but not yet started, as we’d hate to promise features that end up needing to be cut for whatever reason - but it’s fair to say this list is not fully inclusive of what is coming for the final product. With all that said, here is what you can expect before or on the release of build 1.0!
New NPC models!
Work on new characters has begun in earnest. Not only will they be vastly more performant than they currently are, allowing more on screen at any given time, they will also look a lot better and more stylized. We are also updating the dismemberment system to not only look better, but also perform better, meaning your rampaging will not hammer your FPS as hard as it currently does.
Improved vomit!
We heard you - the neon glowing orange of NPC puke needed addressing, so address it we have! Our associate producer personally took the matter into his own hands and we now bring you sickeningly chunky chunder. Eww..

NPCs on Scooters!
NPC’s will hop onto scooters and bomb around town, mowing down anyone that dares to get in their way (future updates will have NPCs better avoid oncoming scooters, but hey it’s pretty funny as is). They’ll even steal your scooter if you’re not careful!

New weapons!
We have quite a few new weapons planned, but two that we have started work on are the Sniper Rifle and The Rattler.

Rides!
You didn’t think we’d build a theme park themed around genitalia and not allow you to enjoy the rides did you?
Get soaking wet on the Splash Gash! Test your forearm strength on the circumciser! Penetrate deep into the Womb Coaster! Get thrusted up and down on the G-Spotter! Experience the joys of implanting yourself in an anatomically accurate uterus* on the Uter-tilt! Squirt into the Douche Nozzle!

Subtitles!
We’re in the process of implementing a subtitle system. The first roll out will be in English to benefit those that are hard of hearing, and once the final dialogue has been recorded we’ll start adding commonly spoken languages. After that, we’ll do what we did for P2 and enlist the communities help to include as many languages as we possibly can.
New areas and level design improvements!
The Thursday update will see most if not all of the areas of the game open to explore, and then our level design team will turn to fleshing out and improving areas already in the game. We plan to have most buildings accessible in some way.
Waypoint system!
Getting lost frequently? Hate the idea of making your own decisions on which route to take? Love seeing dots on a mini map? My friend, we have you covered with the new waypoint system!

Better boss fights (and overall better combat AI)!
Right now there are two boss encounters, but they are little more than normal NPCs with more health and slightly buffed weapons. We are in the process of giving each character some bespoke attacks.
The fundamentals of all combat AI is also being worked on and improved.
Random encounters!
There will be many random encounters with NPCs where they will task you with minor things in exchange for some sort of reward, which will help in making exploring the open world we’ve built that much more interesting.
Playable arcades!
We’re planning some interactable games and also full on playable mini-games even outside of Kunny Island. There will be at least one fully playable arcade mini-game at launch.
Twitch integration!
Just a bit of fun for content creators and their communities. Those watching the stream will be able to fuck with the game in various amusing ways: They can choose to either help or hinder their progress by speeding them up, slowing them down, make them jump constantly, invert their movement and look controls, grant an instakill golden gun, and much more.
Below you can see just some of the many modifiers we've implemented:
