I'd love to know where people are getting this 'no new characters/content for 2 years' thing from, because we've been clear that that's absolutely not the case, and anyone repeating that as fact genuinely does not know what they're talking about. We've already got a ton of stuff for Chapter 2 in the bag and we're steadily working on things behind the scenes. We've been clear about this the whole time - hell, I was literally working on the chapter 2 intro just this week! But hey, if people still insist on believing that as the god's honest truth, cool, see you in two years, I guess.

Also, visually, Kitty may be based on the comics version, but, as with every character we put in the game, we're taking the best bits from every interpretation of the character. So yes, you're going to see aspects of the Evo version as well, because everyone on the team has a soft spot for that version, as well as deep cuts from the comics, because we love making throwaway references to stuff that only like three people will get.
Okay man, lets sort this out. I wanna ask you a few questions and I hope you could answer them.
The first thing - is it true that Kitty gonna to appear in 1.1?
The second is - is it true that gap between big updates took about 4-6 month? So mediate number is 5.
The third and the last one - is is true according to this roadmap the next update will be 0.9 and then we need to wait v1 and when v1.1?

BTW, it`s already end of the 25, so 27 is just 1 year and 1 month away. No a 2 years. Math, it seems, not among yours friend. Just saying. View attachment TheNullHypothesis-Roadmap_04.20.25.avif

so I was wondering if there's any dialoge that mentions her fangs during a BJ for example? If not, it might be an idea to add it sometime in a later update.
... You know you have a point. I'll mention it to the devs.

...Or does everyone get one freebie?

The traits are based on their personalities and quirks in the comics dialed up to eleven, so i doubt it.
Laura for example is very stalker-ish, while Jean is a mother hen, Rogue is very much a baby doll in private.
This is an announcement directed at everyone.

All quirks are and will be based off of existing personality traits.

As salscou mentioned, their behaviors are representative of the actual characters. We just take them to the extreme, within psychological reason, and make them kinky.

If you want a bunch of strong willed women to act submissive, go play Oni's Rogue Like. This is not an attack on RLE, it's a recommendation for a game you will likely enjoy.

So for those curious about future girls. Without spoiling:

Kitty will be feisty nerd naive about Super Heroes, Storm will be conflicted over how she presents herself, Dazzler will feel like the music industry is fucking her over, and Emma will be a sultry seducers with issues stemming from a family that is royally messed up.

You can take a guess at what their quirks will be, but characters will be as authentic as possible. There's like 3 Evo inspired games out there. Y'all can survive with a comic inspired one.

Something I can't put my finger on: do the girls react to being cummed inside? As far as I can remember now they don't
They just say "I'm on the pill" the first time you have sex and they don't really have any unique reactions outside of that I don't think.
As a man, I don't know what it feels like to have cum in my non-existent vagina.

It's not really something we've pried into with the women involved in the project either.

If anyone wants to give feedback, we'll welcome it.

I see your evo kitty in attack mode and i raise you a space farmer kitty angry at space cowboy!

Really an underrated part of her life. Better than her being a drunken pirate.

I wanna ask you a few questions and I hope you could answer them.
I'm the community manager. You can ask me.

The first thing - is it true that Kitty gonna to appear in 1.1?
As I told you and others. Yes.

The second is - is it true that gap between big updates took about 4-6 month? So mediate number is 5.
Around that time yeah.

I'll note that projects smaller than us have taken longer to update.

The third and the last one - is is true according to this roadmap the next update will be 0.9 and then we need to wait v1 and when v1.1?
Will 1.1 come out "soon"? No. Will it take 2 years to come out? Very unlikely.

I want to clear up a major misconception, again this is directed toward everyone.

Progress with the game is not homogenous. We do not sit on our asses until everyone else finishes their work for the specific update.

The development is three fold.

1. Art

2. Coding

3. Writing.

Art takes the longest to be made because we have one primary artist and a few others that add supplemental stuff like clothing.

Our coders do not patiently wait for the art to arrive before they begin coding. They code the scenes and then plug the art into them. At the same time, our writers do not wait until they are done programming scenes for us to write the text. In fact it's the other way around. Our writers have to put facial expressions and body movements in the text.

Here is an example of what that looks like.

InteractionClass(
DialogueClass("narrator", _("You hear sounds of anger mixed with sobs on the other side of the door.")),
DialogueClass("ch_LauraKinney", _("{i}Grrrrrr{/i}, go away, [Player.first_name].")),
DialogueClass("ch_LauraKinney", _("*sniffle* I know you're there.")),
DialogueClass("ch_Player", _("Sorry. . .")),
Versions 0.9 and 1.0 have pretty much all of their writing done. Our coders also working on the coding for them as well.

I'll point out Group Sex in 1.0. We still need to get the art filed away but Ron and other coders have already begun work on it.

The first drafts/sketches of the chapter 2 girls' bedrooms have also been finished and greenlit for the full thing.

As Buttholder has stated, the writers have already begun working on 1.1 because clothing physics doesn't require writing and they're not sitting on their asses for everyone to catch up. That'd be stupid.

As our psychology consultant, I personally have gone over most of Buttholder's writing for 1.1 to ensure that people behave in a way that feels consistent to the situations they find themselves in.

So trust me. We're getting there.

Use basic math. If half the team is already working on Chapter 2, it's not gonna take till Nov 2027.

She is in the game, she simply isnt implemented yet as a romanceable character.

:unsure:
I never noticed this in-game (weirdly), but that should be "hangar", not "hanger".

A hangar is where you park a plane.
A hanger is what you store clothes on or use for a hillbilly abortion.

I think the thing that some people are getting confused by comparing time between updates and this game compared to others is that the development of the game is currently not linear like most adult VN games that are just using the Renpy engine without any modifications.

Most VN just essentially plug and play their renders into Renpy and code in the conversations with a little bit of variables to handle choices.

This game has incorporated Live2D animation system into the game engine as well as creating custom wardrobe system, dating system, physics, Sandbox, etc. These systems take time and testing to get right far beyond what a normal VN does.

To me there was always a very good possibility of a bit of a content drought to come leading up to the 1.1 release. We are talking about doubling the amount of dateable characters in the game in a single update on top of finalizing all the various game systems. We could see one update come after 4-6 months only for the next to come in less then a month after that one if all the assets are in place already.

After 1.1 from my understanding most if not all of the game systems will be fleshed out the point the game becomes more plug and play and updates will become a bit more easier to judge timelines for.

Id love to agree with you, but i never once picked up a guardians comic.
08 Guardians of the Galaxy by Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning was pretty cool, I suggest you check it.

Edit: the whole Annihilation sequence, both Annihilation and Annihilation: Conquest and their tie-ins, was awesome.

Only major difference is that they added some blonde in his hair. 2008 vs 2013

It's not only about looks, it's about attitude. Pre-MCU Quill was very cynical, post-MCU Quill is literally Chris Pratt, a dumb goofball.

Pretty much this. We're getting all the complicated stuff out of the way early.

Imagine if we put in live 2D at chapter 3 or real time physics in chapter 4.

That'd 100% break saves and require a Summer Time Saga level tech update.

I imagine dating Kitty Pryde would change your perspective on life.

I admire his patience and skill at tard wrangling. For free too. since its not like those kinds of people are gonna support the game. They play it(not even that sometimes) and then complain about something they got for free
I do it for free in general. If we were a net profit, I couldn't accept payment for insurance reasons.
