Beyond Evolution almost ready for release!

Hello everyone!

This past few weeks, I have been working on Beyond Evolution quite a bit and am happy to announce - its almost ready. All systems are in place, only thing left is polishes, artwork and UI work. This project has gotten quite massive and I do hope you all will enjoy it.

There have been some big system changes. Most notably, the game doesn't store data in a database anymore and is purely offline. This means no more cross play and other online features such as auto-update, but I think its for the best this way. There will still be optional Patreon verification, which will give additional rewards, boosts to resource gain and even special, patron only characters!

To celebrate release, there will be membership discounts in the coming weeks so stay alert for that! Also, there may or may not be an event like what I did last year coming - character suggestions! You all seemed to enjoy it, so I want to do these every few months from now on.

The game will include a lot of writing for you to enjoy on the side in the form of character bond scenes! These are like small 'dates' to aquaint you with the playable characters and even share some spicy scenes with them in the form of a visual novel.

Along with that, this release will also include the first BIG boss in the story. There won't be much 'end game' gameplay in this initial version, but more will come in the following updates, as I don't want to delay the release further.

I really hope you enjoy this game as I have been working on it for almost an year and am glad it is finally coming together!

As for Growing Explorations, there is no progress at all there. It is mainly due to how much time my university has been taking and with my free time being spent on Beyond Evolution currently. I still hope to update it at least once this year but we will see how that goes. I want to do much more with it, but in general it has been tough to develop lately and the artists I commission for it have been busy so no assets are really being done. I am sorry for this let down, but an update will not happen in at least the following 3-4 months. I can't promise on something even after that. But it won't be dropped any time soon, development will just be veeery slow.
