Update 0.5 and 0.5.1 (Patreon)

After some thought, I'd like to inform you of a decision to modify the roadmap and release the next update.

I've decided to release version 0.5 in about a month's time, including the entire Lucius arc with Kassiah, as well as the entire main story phase with the Giant Bot ordeal.

The next few weeks will be devoted to developing and finalizing the Dark Tunnels with the Core Seeds, as well as adding small elements to the existing battles in this zone.

A new game will be required, and the Bonds will be updated to enable quick saves.

Version 0.5.1 will follow over the summer, with the Dark Zone, new enemies and Tam with Balgor.

I'd like to keep the content separate so as to be able to follow up on tests and feedback from you, and keep a regular release rhythm.

This keeps me motivated to “see the end” of my work phases and also to check whether you like the direction the game is taking.

I'd like to reassure you about the existing content:

it's in line with what I've done so far :

High replayability

Polished scenes

In-depth dialogue

Consistent features and choices

Passion for the project with a healthy life balance

Very...very hot hentai scenes and corruption/hacking themes

To be honest, I don't want to overdo it and rush into the dark zone content. I don't feel it. I know it may disappoint, but the risk of rushing, ruining my work is too great.

Contrary to some of my old naughty habits, I haven't added content on content.

However, the existing scenes took weeks of work, so they're very polished, immersive and, in my opinion, even stronger than my previous work.

The trap is to think that it can be done quickly, but once you're in development, quality takes time, energy and a lot of follow-up, corrections etc...

I can only ask you to check for yourselves whether the direction taken is worthy of your support in the future, both as Patrons and as players.

Frankly, I think you'll enjoy it, and there's a lot of fun ready to enjoy.

This pressure, which I don't want to feel, indirectly frees me up for what's to come. It will certainly give me the serenity to make some bold and interesting additions with the rest of the development.

To sum up, coming 0.5 :

Bonds update

Fast backups

Giant Bot main event with different approaches (Hacking, defeat, corruption)

Full arc of Lucius' corruption of Kassiah through Bots/Giant Bot events

Development for this month of April:

Core Seeds task (revised and expanded)

Combat elements added (traping enemies, slayer move, dialogs)

Release of update 0.5

Coming soon:

0.5.1 including dark zone with Tam, new monsters and Balgor. Summer release.

I allow myself this approach in harmony with my vision of my work, in coherence with a healthy outside life which is a priority.
