Update 10 (11/09/2026)
Hello everyone! Yes, I’m still alive, and no, the WIP hasn’t been abandoned lol.
First of all, I want to apologize, because five months without an update is way too long. There have just been a lot of things going wrong over the last few months. I burned myself out a bit with the previous update, then there was A LOT of work on top of that. I also got a bit disheartened by a few kind of nasty messages I got. On top of already having very little free time, whenever I did have some time to write, I just wasn’t really feeling up to it, so I kept putting it off.
But like I said before, I might delay some updates or take some breaks, but I won’t ever abandon this WIP. Hopefully, though, I won’t ever take a break this long again.
Anyway, now that we’ve got that out of the way, what’s actually new in this update?
This is the start of Theresa and Ecbert’s routes like promissed! The update is about 65k words bringing the total size to 466k words, although I believe only around 20k of that is actually NEW content.
There was a travel section for each location, and the dialogue and character development are pretty much the same as they were when traveling to Laphis, just adapted to the different context. So that ended up bloating the total word count quite a bit.
Currently, I’ve written a decent chunk of Theresa’s route and the very beginning of Ecbert’s. My original plan was to write a good bit of both routes and release them together, but I realized that it had already been way too long since I last gave the game an update, and I’ll probably be buried in work again soon. So I decided to release it as it is for now and continue working on Ecbert’s section whenever I can before releasing it as a .5 update.
Anyway, I hope you guys enjoy it! Sorry again for the long delay, and the disappointing amount of content after such a long wait, but it was the best I could do. Both routes are still very much works in progress, so if you have any suggestions or there’s something you really want to see or do, feel free to let me know. Also I haven’t had time to fully test it out yet, so if there’s any errors please let me know.
And as always, thank you all so much for the support! I really missed all of this!
