Relase dates for 0.99.9
Version 0.99.9 – Release Dates & Development Update
Hi guys,
I know it has been quite a while since my last proper update, so I want to start by thanking you for your patience and continued support during this quieter period.
Here are the planned release dates for Version 0.99.9:
$10 / €7.50 Patrons: 10.08.
$5 / €4 Patrons: 17.08.
$2 / €1.50 Patrons: 24.08.
Public Release: 31.08.
This development cycle has taken considerably longer than usual, and I know the wait has been long.
The upcoming version will include:
new playable content,
a major update to the CQM — the Character and Quest Management system,
considerably more bug fixes than usual,
and further stability and internal improvements.
Over the years, The Promise has grown into a very large game with many characters, quests, events, requirements, and interconnected paths. Because of that, it has become increasingly important to make it easier for players to reliably find and reach the available content.
The expanded CQM will make it much easier to track active quests and character stories, understand their requirements and locations, find the next step, and recognize when a storyline has reached its currently available endpoint.
Many existing quests and character paths were not yet fully represented in the CQM. This sometimes made it difficult to tell whether more content was available, where a story continued, or whether its current ending had already been reached.
Reviewing and integrating the large number of quests has required a lot of work, but it should make the entire game much clearer and easier to navigate.
The update also contains an unusually large number of bug fixes. A lot of time has been spent reviewing older content, correcting problems, improving stability, and making sure connected events and systems work together more reliably.
The first part of The Promise trilogy is now moving toward its final stage. Because of that, it is especially important to bring the existing content, player guidance, and overall stability into a better state before Part 1 is considered complete.
However, even though the version number has now reached 0.99.9, this does not mean that only one update remains. There will still be several updates for Part 1. The version number should not be seen as a countdown where the next release automatically has to be Version 1.0.
Version 0.99.9 is another important step toward bringing Part 1 closer to completion and improving the overall experience.
More information about the featured characters, new scenes, and story content will follow closer to the release, together with the full changelog.
Once again, thank you very much for your patience and continued support. I hope the new content, the many fixes, and the improvements throughout the game will make the longer wait worth it. :)
Best regards,
Your Xagrim

Very excited to read this! This is still the only Adult game i constantly come back to and love that we are finally reaching the end game. My biggest wonder is what the lady that rides on her bike through the park is about.

Everyone lives lisa
No problem xagrim
Das Versprechen. Sie haben uns mehr Zufriedenheit mit der Tochter versprochen, aber es gibt keine Fortschritte. Wie schade 😅😅😅
Her storyline in Part 1 is already around 99% complete. There may still be some smaller additions or finishing touches, but you should not expect another large continuation of her Part 1 questline. Her story is not being abandoned, though. Further development involving Lisa belongs mainly to Part 2. The updated CQM will also make it much clearer when her available Part 1 content has been completed and whether there are still any scenes left to discover.
You have no idea how pleased I am to hear about making it easier to find things you haven't seen and knowing how to complete something. I have been stuck on the promise for so long with : watch her pee, meet the couple and make a decision...it never happens. And, going to the pool with your daughter. Also, never could get past the mini game with the bdsm girl. I know im missing content and I want so badly to see it!
That is exactly one of the main reasons why the CQM update has become so important. :) With so many quests, requirements, and connected events, it has sometimes been far too difficult to know whether content is still available, where to continue, or why something is not triggering. The updated CQM should make objectives, requirements, locations, next steps, and current endpoints much clearer. Version 0.99.9 also contains considerably more bug fixes than usual. Some of the situations you mentioned may simply have unclear requirements, while others could be actual event-trigger problems. Please keep your current save. If any of them are still blocked after the update, you can send me the save and I can check the exact path.
I dont see any changelog info just bug fixes and new updates to make the game more playable we will have to see if there is anything worth the wait.
This post was mainly intended to announce the release dates and explain why this development cycle has taken longer than usual. It was not meant to be the full changelog. Version 0.99.9 does include new playable content. More information about the featured characters, scenes, and the complete changelog will follow closer to the release. I understand the skepticism after the long wait, but I would rather reveal the actual content properly when it is ready than fill the release-date post with vague promises.
All I want to know is are we going to finish up the step daughter quest and everything cuz that was one of the quests that I really wanted to continue on and I wanted more scenes out of it so I hope the next update includes her
Just to clarify, Lisa is the MC’s adopted daughter, not his stepdaughter. Her storyline in Part 1 is already around 99% complete. There may still be some smaller additions or finishing touches, but you should not expect another large continuation of her Part 1 questline. Her story is not being abandoned, though. Further development involving Lisa belongs mainly to Part 2. The updated CQM will also make it much clearer when her available Part 1 content has been completed and whether there are still any scenes left to discover.
