UNRELATED: Chapter Zero Alpha version 0.1 info!


We've got a lot to report this time!

UNRELATED: Chapter Zero is nearly playable. It's still buggy, but it's playable. Almost. Soon I'll be releasing a playable alpha (v.0.1) to a few playtesters, but not the general public.

Something important to note: Chapter Zero is very short. If you know what you're doing and ram through all the text, you can get to the end in less than five minutes. I've never programmed a game before this, so Chapter Zero very much a tester for me.

It's still important to the overall narrative of UNRELATED, though, so be sure to play it!!

So, what's left before v.0.1?


  • Finish building the map. I'd call it 97% complete, but it still has a little work to go before it's completely functional.

  • Finish building the cutscenes! There are two major cutscenes in Chapter Zero, and one of them is buggy but playable, and the other is still incomplete. The first one needs a little more fine-tuning before I give it to playtesters, but the second one needs a little work. It'll be a toughie! But totally worth it.

  • Get the saving system up and running. When I switched computers the saving system broke, and I'm suspicious it's a problem with this computer and not the game. I will be getting a nicer computer soon, so I should be able to fix it then.

  • Music! @Ffatalityy has her own life going on and I don't wanna be too needy, so I asked another friend, RykoCheeto, to help me as well! She makes really cute and nice music! Also, I'm still trying to teach myself to make music on my own :0 but it's not going well, haha.


So, when will Chapter Zero release to the general public?

Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da (drumroll noises)

September 30th!


That's all for now! Stay DETERMINED and never lose HOPE!

Taking another stab at composing for UNRELATED myself, wish me luck gang

Still working on my Earthbound playthrough, paused it to play through Pokemon Legends: Arceus. That said, still very much liking Earthbound and finding inspiration in it. You know what would be cute? If UNRELATED!Sans had a jammies sprite like Ness does.

I love how it's implied that Clover isn't from cowboy times, like this little eight year old has justice in their soul and their outfit needs to reflect that

like ok autism cowboy i love u

woke up from a nap and immediately made this for no reason

Woo hoo! 75 downloads! Let's try to bump that number up to 100 before 2025, guys!

UNRELATED update! working on the menu some more. Still trying to find a good font? I'll probably just use the UNDERTALE one, but I'm experimenting with some others. The one here is from EARTHBOUND!

Listening to Fighter by Jack Stauber's Micropop today! You guys should check him out if you don't know him - his music is great. Found this specific song in another UT/DR edit, haha.
