v0.3.0
Major changes from v0.2.1:

Kotone walks by default now instead of always running. To run tap the directional key/button twice, or just use an analog stick controller.
The default weapon is now a regular knife rather than kodachi.
Grabs can be escaped instantly using the knife by pressing the attack button, although Kotone will still take damage.
Clothing is destroyed faster and if Kotone is at 0HP when grabbed she will be stripped and violated if nudity is on.
The mountain stage from v0.2 extended has been removed and parts of it merged with a different stage.
Treasure Dungeon minigame is not in this version, there is a different minigame instead.

v0.2.0 Extended Demo

The map screen is no longer, each area is connected via savepoints that you can travel between once the second one is found.
Save files have been added.
Stage 1 has a mostly different layout and name along with stage 3.
You can perfom a strong attack while crouching, and the air version is different. The light attack no longer perfoms strong attacks when holding forward.
Paint can now be aimed with a crosshair when holding the strong attack key. You can’t aim it in midair however.
MP now shows the values above the meter and anima crystals now increase MP intead of the recovery time.
There are key items that have one time uses and are shown on the pause screen.
Shop items are more expensive.
Power ups are harder to find on an initial playthrough of a stage.
Clothing resets only if you die or fail, if the options are set to no clothing damage restarting from a savepoint will reset it.
The treasure dungeon minigame is now hidden somewhere else.
The boss arena and fight has some changes to it.
There’s more new stuff to find, but those are the most important things I wanted to mention.

Bug fixes:

Not able to select X Input controller in control settings.
