    Patch #2

    So, it turns out that the previous patch did not address the heart of the matter. What was happening is that the depots for which I was storing review versions of the game were actually overriding the public versions of the game depending on the user.

    So, it turns out that the previous patch did not address the heart of the matter. What was happening is that the depots for which I was storing review versions of the game were actually overriding the public versions of the game depending on the user. So this was a fairly complicated problem with a more straightforward fix than I'd have thought. Ultimately, I am glad that I caught it within the first week while the launch sale is still ongoing. However, everything should be proceeding just fine now and there should be no more issues but if there are, please let me know in the Discussions section of the game.

    Hey everyone, so I've been getting a lot of positive messages about the game and I just want to thank everyone about that. However, something I've noticed is that only 0.2% of players have gotten achievements. That means about 10 at most out the nearly thousand units we've sold are registering achievements and logical assumption says that about half of those are by some script that people run to get all achievements. Now, looking in the .rpy files of this game, there was nothing that indicated the game had issues with achievements. However, I have added extra safeguards into them and updated Ren'py because apparently the latest version of the engine's compiled .rpyc files are more compatible with Steam. So, hopefully this solves the syncing error. If it doesn't, there's more I can do but hopefully this figures it out.

Current silence

cannot be judged

We do not yet hold enough of this game's announcement history to describe its rhythm.

Last successful news check: Oct 22, 2026, 2:04 PM UTC. This is when we checked Steam, separate from when the developer last posted.

We hold a thin slice of this game's announcement history, so its normal rhythm can't be established. That is a limit of our record, not evidence about the game.
