News from fields: LS 0.95

Hello friends!

First of all, we apologize for such long silence. December is a difficult month, which means before the end there are a lot of things need to be done, including basic work and some inexpected business trips...

Next item: we have some bad and good news on LS. And now we're presenting them to you.

The first news. Bad :(. Unfortunately, we should admit that we started searching and testing new translators for LS too late. We are very grateful to Ruzi, who helped us wonderfully with all previous versions. But now he is engaged in his own projects (good luck to him!). So that we had to find a new translator (or even several ones). As the result, we found them and dealt cooperation, but it was too late for 0.95. The thing is that so far only a small part of new content has been translated in English. Hence it's obviously, that the rest won't be translated in a magical way for some days (not to mention proofreading and adding all texts into the game).

What does this mean... Yes, there you are, the guy who just hit the desk with his fist and said, "I knew that!" absolutely right. We need to postpon the release date for LS 0.95 to February 19 of next year.

Yes, we know that we disgustingly set and met deadlines. But the fact is that we are a team of two people, so any hitch might greatly influence our project ((.

What can be said for sure is that if some quests isn't translated or mechanics isn't not finished until the 19 of February, then we will simply remove this part of content from 0.95 and move it to the next version.

It would seem, what kind of news can be good after the first? Here it is: we won’t make you wait 0.95 without an interim release of 'The Library Story'. We all know how popular the tentacles are (which is confirmed by polls!) So we will release for you on January 10 a special version LS where you'll see all new content related to the tentacles line from v 0.95 (you can even try to catch Belle on behalf of the tentacles!). Alongside this we’ll make the possibility of a special start so that you don’t have to go through the whole game anew - it’s better to save your energy for the full version 0.95.

In addition, we have to say that we really like the way 'The Library Story' 0.95 turns out. We like new quests and events, changes in the mechanics, a plot twist that we came up with at the end of November, but which will have a big impact on the whole game... We’d like to tell you more about it, but it's better if you see everything yourselves.

An important point: a hitch with the release of 0.95 will not affect our future plans for 'The Library Story'. As we have already said, we plan to release the next versions more often (more often - this is not 'twice a year instead of one'). And now, while work on the translation is continuing, we will already be thinking about the next version. Although it’s too early to talk about it now. We will return to this topic after the release of 0.95.

Well, perhaps we should go back to work - it seems that a new part of translation has just arrived.

Thanks so much for your support guys. We really hope that you will like LS 0.95, because we've already invested a lot of time and energy into it, so you just have to wait a bit (though longer than we planned). Thank you for your support and understanding!

Latissa · January 6, 2020

повторюсь, обьем к примеру квеста с растением = половине небольшой книжки (~2 авторских листа)) + перевод этот нужно очень сильно чистить и редактировать

Disappointed by that... we wait already so long for it. :/

Latissa · January 6, 2020

:(( well, at least, hope you will enjoy by interim version in jan 10th - it's big and quite amusing. And in February there will be the full version. Further I think we'll rethink our work with this game, and either will make less volumatric versions or make reasonable deadlines at the beginning to avoid such problems.

Sorry to hear that. You first started talking about 0.95 on jan 18th 2018 (almost two years ago). A five dollar patron will have sent you $125 between the announcement and the release, assuming the February date is hit. I hope it lives up to expectations.

Latissa · January 6, 2020

Well, I hope you'll really enjoy by both interim version and the full 0.95. Because IMO they are really big, plus include some long-awaited content, and some special original features.

You really couldn't have told us till just now?

Latissa · January 6, 2020

The thing is that we hoped until the middle of December that it's possible to release it on time :-/... Well, this kind of feeling can happen when you accelerate your work too much and then find that deadline of release is almost there... :(( Sorry for this hitch. We will try to correct such situations. Maybe by reducing the amount of content or by more reasonable deadlines.

I do not like this delayed type of communication either, but I will wait until the release in February and use version 0.95 to decide whether I will continue to support this project or not. Until then, a Merry Christmas, a hard-working Father Frost and a Happy New Year.

Честно сказать я не удивлен следя за проектом почти с самого его начало не было не разу что бы не было задержок зачем вы даете людям ложную информацию если сами толком не знаете я помню еще со старого аккаунта писал об этом не делайте так если сами в себе не уверенны

L
Latissa · January 6, 2020

вообще задержек не было вплоть до версии 0.94 (прошлогодней), к сожалению, там были обстоятельства которые не позволили в срок сделать. Насчет нынешней версии : извиняемся еще раз. Постараемся сроки подбирать более разумно. Ну или есть альтернатива - вообще не давать ориентиров.

Some more transparency is needed if I may be honest. Firstly delaying the patch on the day its supposed to release is very sad and also a little bit weird.... especially considering people have been waiting 12 months for this patch. Proofreading and translating should also not take 2 extra months, even if there is tons of text.

L
Latissa · January 6, 2020

well, it is exactly a case when there are LOTS of text :D For example, the volume of Tentakle quest is about a half of a small book (and there are several such quests in 0.95). The next problem is that it appeared to be quite difficult to find a translator who would speak fluently both English and Russian. So after translation (big thanx to our current interpreter!) we need to send each part of texts to several proofreaders + there should be an estimation of total quality of the text which is in doubt even now (because not all jokes and idioms are shown in texts). The interim version will be released in January in any case, but with the rest texts it's necessary to solve this issue.
