Magic Academy. About Update 0.6.5 (Pollen)

Hey everyone! It's time to release our next update.
Today, version 0.6.5 (Pollen) becomes available for Professor tier subscribers.
If no critical bugs are found, it will be available to Magister tier subscribers in a week.

So, what's included in this update?

• New romantic quests for Rose (featuring a comic and CG scenes).

• A quest that continues Victoria's inner conflict and reveals her secret.

• Animated older scenes for Victoria (now they aren't just photos, they are magic photos!).

• A quest concluding Louise's inner conflict (along with a new comic).

• Now, upon completing a character's inner conflict, you will receive an especially powerful card for Journey mode (if you have already completed Audrey's conflict, the card will be granted automatically).

• The Vampire portal for Journey mode is back (it used to turn off after meeting Scarlet).

• Battles in the cathedral now have their own unique background.

• Fixed the unlocking of scenes in the Gallery. We added a small script that will retroactively unlock them upon loading the game if you've already completed the corresponding quests.

• Fixed the texture resolution for some animations to get rid of the "blurriness".

• Conducted another proofreading pass: we made over 400 edits to improve readability, fix typos, and correct translations across different languages.

• Added and improved the Arabic localization.

• Added Wishlists (oh, yeah, more on that below!).

Besides that, we've finally teamed up with a sound designer and started working on improving the game's audio—adding SFX for scenes, clicks, map movement, and dialogs. We'll try to pack our game with cool new sounds to make it sound even better!

Oh, right, another equally important piece of news!

The Magic Academy Steam page is finally live. Please support us by adding it to your wishlist—this boosts the page's visibility and tells Steam's algorithms that the game is something players actually want, not just another piece of junk. At the moment, we aren't planning an Early Access release; the game will most likely be released fully finished sometime in Fall 2026.

Forgive me for repeating myself, but please—wishlist the game! Support us in the face of the soulless algorithms!

Thank you for staying with us and helping us continue to develop our game!
