Devnote:

Finishing this was a nightmare. December completely messed me up, and trying to push through was just shit. Honestly, it burned me out big time.

To make things worse, some drama earlier this month didn’t help either. Some bad actors love being bad actors, trying to tear down what I’m building—which is just sad.

On top of that, I’ve been working on this non-stop for over a year. So, I have an important announcement:

I will be taking a break at the end of February for two weeks to clear my head and reset.

To keep things transparent, here’s my expected release window:

📅 31-01-2025 – Release V0.2 - The Wound
📅 27-02-2025 – Release V0.23 - Noble’s Mansion + Magical Forest of Rova’shi
📅 28-02-2025 – Orachi Break (2 weeks)
📅 31-03-2025 – Release V0.25 – (Zones will be decided by a poll in a few days)

These upcoming patches will maintain the same quality, though some might be slightly smaller in scale.

Thanks for your patience and support! 💙

LMFAOO “retard AI” for the chess minigame 🤣🤣 it’s funny but probably accurate. Also as for you taking a break, to be completely honest I feel like if 2 weeks aren’t enough, take 3weeks to a month if you really need to. I’m fine and patient with that

I have just returned home from the "siege" of my relatives. Almost got drunk by them. Sorry to hear the bad life you have experienced these days. We know you're doing the best, and if life pushing everything too hard, take a rest, have some sleep. Everyone needs a dream to wake up. “梦虽遥,追则能达;愿虽艰,持则可圆”

hey orachi I have followed you since your beginnings, and your creations have always been a great pleasure to play, remember to take some time for yourself whether you work on this work full time or not you have to know how to take these leaves when they are necessary in whether you take a break of 2 weeks or even a month it won't be too much when we know that you are working hard I prefer to know that you take time for yourself to breathe rather than that you kill yourself with the task and suffer behind ps: I'm French sorry if my English is a little shaky

Great hearing from you Orachi! Yes take a break you've earned it. As for the 'bad actors', that just sounds like they're 'bad energy'... stay away from that. Take a break, get some rest and look after yourself and looking forward to more of your works.

Can’t wait! Please keep in mind your mental and fortitude is always top priority before anything else… don’t be afraid to take that break sooner if you need it!

I really think the whole 2 week break can be started after addressing any major bugs from V0.2. If just getting to the finish line for this update has drained you. TAKE THE DAMN BREAK!!!

Do rest well, hope you get a good break 😇, shame that people have to do this ...🫠 On the brighter side of things, Pretty interested in what is coming, although I doubt i will be able to beat it xD, the giga boss being recruitable sounds really interesting!

Will we be able to import save files? I hope you have a good, long rest!

Orachi · January 29, 2025

It auto imports the old saves, no input needed for the player. Unless you changed pc or reinstalled your OS.
