Get ready to speculate, because here comes our April 2024 roadmap, packed with mysterious teasers and some less mysterious updates. I hope you enjoy reading and have a great weekend! Article below


Greetings, Alchemists!

As we're powering ahead at full steam (pun not intended), we wanted to give you a sneak peek into our Early Access journey for April 2024.

This month, we're diving into the task of adding new languages to the game, thanks to the support of our publisher, ESDigital Games. It can be a challenge, particularly for languages with alphabets different from English, the original language in which we developed the game. If you're curious about the intricacies of localization, we invite you to delve deeper into the topic by checking out a previous devlog here.

But of course, we’re not only working on localization. This devlog's a bit of a mystery and we hope you'll hang in there with us and let your imagination run wild with what our work-in-progress pictures might reveal.

Let's take a peek behind the curtain. Feast your eyes on a glimpse of a new story location we're feverishly crafting:

Hidden within its mysterious walls are secrets and challenges waiting for those who travel there and explore.

But what's a world without its inhabitants? Fear not, for alongside this new locale emerge fascinating characters, each with their own tales to tell and quests to embark upon.

These enigmatic figures will step into the light as we journey through Early Access.

Now, onto the burning question: [b]When can you expect these exciting additions to grace your screens? [/b]

As much as we'd love to snap our fingers and make it happen, the magic of game development requires time and patience, especially for a small team like us. Right now, we're knee-deep in crafting Act 2, which entails the new content which you'll get to experience during Early Access.

We appreciate your patience as we navigate this adventure. While we may not be dropping new content every other day, rest assured, the treasures we're cooking up will be well worth the wait.

In the coming months, we'll be peeling back the layers to reveal more about this new location, its inhabitants, and the thrilling adventures that lie ahead. Until then, keep those cauldrons bubbling, your wits sharp, and your spirits high.

Hey there!

While waiting for Act 2 translations, let’s talk about how we actually craft those dialogs: it’s a collaborative effort with some Arcweave magic to bring the story to life in our "monolog-style dialogs." Check out the devlog below:
