I just didn't want to leave folks hanging with the "imminent" word in last week's post. We're set to release ahead of the weekend for sure and ideally in the next 24-48 hours. What added the extra time?
  • Beta feedback was that groupchats in the phone app could be confusing, so I re-coded the pone app to make who is speaking very clear and allow in-convo choices to be made within the phone itself.,
  • Beta feedback identified one character who probably deserved a sendoff who did not receive one. We've created a small supplementary scene to mitigate this.,
  • We've added four new photo unlockables via phone chats that were not present in the original beta.,
  • Kent made all new phone app avatars for all characters.,
  • We've added some transition animations to represent travel.,
  • We've made some route adjusments based on beta feedback.,
  • We've added a Peanut Gallery of bonus artwork that is unlocked in-game.,
  • We've corrected some bugs in previous chapters that were preventing players from achieving maximum points.

    As you can see, the name of the interlocutor and their image now shows up next to the line of dialogue. This wasn't important before, but with groupchats (and AI assistants) it became necessary.

    As of right now, sound integration is likely to wrap up tonight or tomorrow at the latest and regression testing should take a day or so max.

    As of this moment, I believe we'll launch Wed to all platforms or earlier barring any further surprises.

    I will try my best to have a release candidate in the beta testers' hands late tonight so they have a full day to test tomorrow.

    That said, Kent and I are pretty happy with the (near) finished product, and he has already begun working on remastering the Prologue and Chapter 1.

    Anyway, my next post will be download links, so stay tuned!

that was my guess as well
A preview render featuring Bianca was released on Discord several months ago, she's always been there.
Nope, it's someone else...but it's not really the point, anyway. You wouldn't know, once the epilogue is released, who was initially missing since you'd need to have seen the beta to detect the difference. It just shows how "thorough" beta-testing is...

She's marrying George obviously, plot twist! :ROFLMAO:
I would say so, but I thought for sure that the MC and Jaye would end being married I guess must have missed something along the way, wow that's real bummer not the way I would have wanted it to end.

Or maybe Tara, if you're doing a Mal path. (y) :cautious:
Jaye and Tara, now that would've been a great throuple. Would have made Firebreak a bit awkward though, with Tara being a main girl. I'm guessing some are already going to be put off Tara by the fact that she already slept with this MC, you know what they're like. I can already hear the cries of NTR!! :ROFLMAO:
