Remember how I posted about the beta version coming this year? I want to apologize, because at this point I'm no longer sure the beta will be released in 2025. I was so caught up in my excitement about finishing all the sprites, I started thinking we'd be able to finish everything else this year.

Yes, Chris is still coding and has already finished three of four animatronics, but let's be honest, he also has his own project, which he naturally devotes more time to. I don't blame him for that, and on the contrary, I'm very grateful that in addition to his game, he's also helping with ours. So I won't rush him to finish our game. Ultimately, our priority is the quality of the game, not its release speed. And also, don't forget that after the coding is complete, we'll need to beta test the game to identify any potential issues and only after that release it.

So when should expect the beta version to be released? Honestly, I don't know and don't plan to give any specific deadlines, so as not to make empty promises without fulfilling them. I can only say that it will probably be January, but it's hard to say in the first or second half.

To confirm my words about the beta game's imminent release, I'm attaching a full set of clickteam frames for the game. I'm once again very sorry for jumping to conclusions and promising the game would be released before its actual release date.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year everyone! See you in 2026, because it's unlikely there will be any more posts in this year (possibly from Mau, but unlikely from me).
