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!
