Beta 0.2 - Progress Report, Release Window, & Android
Hey everyone!
Just to clarify, yes, today is April Fools. No, none of the information in this post is a joke
I just wanted to chat a bit more about Beta 0.2 to talk about the plans and when you can expect to play this update!
== Release Window ==
If you don't follow my other projects, last week I was pretty busy working on reviving another game of mine that had been on a hiatus for over half a year. Schedule-wise, I'm not terribly behind schedule but the update definitely took up a bit more time than I expected.
The idea was, and still is to release an update for ZR2 at the end of this month (April) which would be on planned schedule. However, with another game of mine (Town of Passion) presumably getting an update soon, I can't guarantee that'll happen just yet. But do know, this is the plan! If I need a couple more weeks, I will let you all know as we get closer.
== Beta 0.2 ==
In case you missed the last update, Beta 0.2 is going to finally add some much needed NSFW scenes into the game!
Some of these were originally meant to be added in Beta 0.1 but I wanted a bit more time to naturally implement those stories and quests without rushing to the action too fast. However, knowing that there's no NSFW atm is driving me nuts. That's the whole point of these games after all lol.
So that's priority number 1! But after that, I want to really get the basis of The Grid done. This includes the ability to construct a few facilities and start getting to see the basic premise of how The Grid will work. Obviously at the start, there won't be terribly much to build/customize but with the way The Grid works, each update will likely add a bit more customization and functionality. By the end, I'm hoping to have a really fun base building mechanic with a good amount of personalization!
== Android Version ==
I've been receiving a ton of questions about this but yes, I do plan to have the Android version releasing with Beta 0.2!
It wasn't included with Beta 0.1 simply because it was the first build and I wanted to make sure there were no glaring issues with the PC version first. It can be a bit stressful juggling two different platforms so making sure one's working first felt like the best way to go.

I think that's about everything for this update. This update was more or less a reminder that things on ZR2 are still moving and haven't been forgotten even though Patreon updates have been a bit quiet as of late. I just don't want to spoil every NSFW scene/CG before it releases so I'm a bit low on things to talk about haha.
Thank you all so much for your support! I hope to have an update soon that should give a much clearer look at when you can expect Beta 0.2. I'll see you all soon! =D
