We felt it was time for another general update.  Sadly, we don’t have much good news to report.  The team is fine (but very busy IRL) and game development is progressing (very, very, very slowly).

Part of the reason for the slow pace of progress is that we’ve bitten off a lot of changes for the next release.  This includes:

As you might imagine, this is a lot of work and it is taking a long time to complete since we don’t have much spare time to work on the game.  We are slowly picking away these changes and the story/technical debt, but progress is slow.

We don’t have any timelines on any upcoming releases.  In fact, it is extremely unlikely that we’ll have a release ready by end of the 2026.  But we will be posting a few polls soon to help us finalize some character designs.

On a SubscribeStar front, we have not resolved the payout problems which have plagued us since the start of the year.  As such, the SubscribeStar remains paused (i.e., no payments and no new subscribers).  SubscribeStar has proven to be a real headache and we’re not certain what we’ll do with it.  We’ll let you know as soon as we have additional details.

In the meantime, wish us luck and we wish you all the best on your own odyssey.

It’s been a while since we’ve done a general status update.  First off, we don’t want to alarm anyone.  The team is fine (but exhausted) and game development is progressing (very, very, very slowly).

So far, 2026 has been a punishing year for our team’s free time.  Changes at work and at home have completely consumed the development team, and no free time means no time to work on the game.  The good news is that the team is exhausted but healthy.  The bad news is there’s no light at the end of the tunnel (yet).  The team’s work/home schedule is likely to remain extremely busy during the months of June, July, and August.  The situation is evolving but it’s unclear when we’ll be able to put more time into game development.  As a result, there is no schedule on the next Supporter or Public release.  Unfortunately, that won’t change until we can get development back on track. 

We’ll be sure to let the community know about any updates.  In the meantime, wish us luck and we wish you all the best on your own odyssey.
