Version 0.2.0.0

This update overhauls the clothing system to make the addition of new clothes easier in the future, and make the system itself easier to expand and debug. It also adds a bunch of new clothing, a few new scenes, and improves the flavour text of NPC orgasms.

I like to split larger updates into parts if they're taking too long, but that wasn't an option here. The changes were quite involved, and my build was unplayable until a few days ago. It was necessary to get the game where I want it to go, but I'm sorry about the wait.

There's still work to be done. Most of the new clothes lack variants for different damage states, for example. NPCs haven't been taught how to deal with bras, so they mostly ignore them. I also have a long todo list of pre-existing bugs and issues, but I didn't want to delay the update any longer.

Note that while the new version is compatible with old saves, your owned and worn clothes will be reset to their defaults. You'll either be put in a sundress or in t-shirt and shorts again. This may cause minor bugs if you load within a scene that expects specific clothing, but it shouldn't be too bad.

Thanks to dusin, aimozg, Quin2k, Ly, and boj for helping with code over the months. I learned a lot. Also thanks to the artists who contributed sprites and writers who contibuted scenes. Programming the update was taking all my time, and I would have hated to release something without new content. Thanks as well to all who helped test the update, and to everyone for your patience.
 
The 15th of June marked the first anniversary of DoL becoming public. I didn't know how the game would be received, or that it would feel so amazing to know people were enjoying it. Thank you all. I hope you enjoy the update.

Edit: Updated to 0.2.0.1, which fixes several bugs. Notes at bottom of post.

Edit3: There's an issue with save files in the current version, caused by their increased size. Browsers are only allowed to allocate so much memory to single application. Increasing the allowance should alleviate the problem, though I haven't tested it. Saving to disk should still work fine.

Edit4: Updated  to 0.2.0.2, which fixes several bugs, including a nasty one that prevented saving, and one that made clothes disappear from the wardrobe. It also reintroduces automatic clothing replacements, and reworks how you get your swimwear to the pool and lake. Full notes at bottom of post.

Edit5: Updated to 0.2.0.3, fixing further bugs. Full notes at bottom of post.

Fangi has put together an updated FAQ for the game.

Patch notes
Clothing overhaul
Overhauled the clothing system. The main goal is to improve expandability, but it also has the following effects:
Removed automatic clothing replacements. Instead, you can store multiple versions of the same item.
You can store up to 40 items for each body category. Outfits take up both a top and bottom slot. Reaching this limit prevents you from buying more from the shop.
You can discard items you no longer want from the wardrobe.
Swimwear is now considered underwear, and can be worn beneath other clothing.
You can no longer summon your swimwear to the lake, though you can still strip.
Renamed y-fronts to briefs.
Waist aprons can now be purchased from the clothing shop.
Tights are now considered legwear, rather than underwear.
Added brown coloured clothes.
You can now store clothes on the rocks near the beach, instead of stripping in the water.
Added wardrobes to the school changing rooms, giving access to all owned clothing.
Reworked how the school changing rooms and pool handle exposure. You can leave naked with very high exhibitionism, and leave while partially undressed with slightly less exhibitionism.
Borrowed clothing will no longer vanish when you take it off.
You can now create any number of clothing "sets", and give them a custom name. They can be marked as either "Everyday" or "Sleep". Sets marked as "Sleep" will appear as something to change into before bed.
You can choose to dress into any of your sets when waking up at the orphanage.
Most clothing art will now take breast size into account.
Most underwear clothing art will now take the presence of a penis into account.
Added a "serving" trait to some clothes, which increases the tips gained when working as a bartender, waiter or waitress.
Added a "dance" trait to some clothes, making them immune to the "wear and tear" effect of the dance studio.
Your character will now wear a single large towel, rather than two small ones, when appropriate.
The accessory shop is under new management, and the existing stock has moved to the clothing shop on the High Street. The new owner only stocks one item for now, but that's sure to change.
Added a hair bow. Art courtesy of Ulithium_Dragon.
Added fishnet tights. Art courtesy of sseshess.
Added a cap accessory, and striped panties.
Thanks to lollipop scythe for help adjusting sprites.

Underwear:
Leotard | Full body leotard | Skimpy leotard | Bunny leotard | Swimsuit | Catgirl panties | Boyshorts | Crotchless panties | G-string | Microkini | Speedo | Cat girl bra | Plain bra | Lace bra | Microkini top | Sports bra

Accessories:
Bunny ears | Bunny collar | Nun's veil | Tuxedo shoes | Garter stockings | Legwarmers

Attackers who are fought off through defiant means will no longer steal any clothing they manage to strip.
Underwear (or lack of underwear) will no longer increase allure or attractiveness if it isn't visible.
