I plan on placing this version of the game behind a paywall, to reflect the huge amount of effort I have put into this, my need for additional funds for the next stages of the game, and to reflect the quality which I am told the game has. So, please grab a download of the base game for free before I paywall it. Once that happens I will add a Demo so that players can get a good taster of the game before deciding to purchase or not.

Key features:

• incorporates the demo
• each LI gets their own theme tune
• fixed errors
• optimized solo LI route, which makes a big difference for the Jasmine solo route
• added more animations
• fixed some animations (waywards hands, imperfect looping etc.)
• SFX added to all animations where relevant
• re-did all football scenes to use high quality grass textures and football goals. this makes these scenes now pop.
• re-done jasmine spa scene, which had to happen because of a rights issue. the artist that created the Kirara asset changed their licence from one that allowed Commercial use to one that is IP-Restricted, because they decided their model was based on a real-life Japanese person. As a result, I had to ditch that model and re-do the scene. I think you'll find this scene is now hugely improved, with a totally different outcome. It's gone down brilliantly with my testers.
• script improvements
• code-solution applied to make all animations run smoothly and avoid jitters, which can happen with larger animations like I have in the game
• new SFX
• new music

The TL;DR version is that I have upgraded the game to match the quality of the Demo, so everything should now be sorted for a good Steam release. Hopefully I have done you all proud and you enjoy this game even more. Stay awesome!
