Reclaiming the Lost | Beta v0.12 is now available.
Hey everyone,
For those who haven't heard — the last few months have been kind of wild. While still doing updates for the game, I ended up moving to a completely different country. It was super spontaneous, not really planned at all.
About a week ago I finally landed in the new place, and now I'm just waiting for my stuff (and most importantly — my PC) to arrive. Shipping estimate is around March 17th.
Because of that, I couldn't quite finish v0.12 100%. A bunch of renders still need final tweaks, the gallery replay scenes aren't set up yet, translation isn't complete, images aren't properly compressed… pretty much everything that requires the big workstation programs I only have on the desktop. I was finishing this on a MacBook, so yeah — this is very much a beta release.
I'll be dropping a proper polished update roughly a week after my PC arrives (so mid-to-late March most likely). The Steam version will follow pretty much the same timeline — about a week after the 17th.
What's actually in v0.12? It's a smaller update — roughly 200 new renders. Main goal was moving the story forward and finally getting almost everyone in the same location.
The next update (the one I'm already working on) is going to be a lot bigger — lots of animations, several new events, more choices that matter.
Even without my full setup I'm still chipping away at the text part for the next one, so it shouldn't be delayed too much. Original loose goal was early May… realistically it's looking more like mid-May right now.
Big focus is going to be "Movie Night with Chloe", but if you're on the "Mysterious Politician" path you'll still get your own movie-watching with Chloe event too. Plus a separate event with Emily & Evelyn .
Thanks so much for sticking with me through the chaos — really appreciate all the support. See you, and I'll drop another update as soon as PC is back.

Hi! I wasn't sure how else to reach out, I just finished the current steam release version of reclaiming the lost, and I had some thoughts. First I'd like to say that the mechanics of the game are good, your figure poses, lighting, choices, guide, and sets all mesh well. I am especially liking your animation, I suspect there is some automated processing going on ;) and I love it. With that said here are my critiques, first of all it would be nice to get a dedicated first person pov perspective camera for all sex positions, more choices of positions, and ideally more first person pov during other dialogue scenes as well, for me it helps immersion, put your players in the driver's seat let them get good eye contact with your beauties. Second I think having the characters be a bit more direct, and well rounded. I'd love to know what makes the characters special, beyond happenstance. I.E. more activities that help us appreciate the characters hobbies, their motivations beyond the MC etc.
The gallery scenes do not work. Even though I have unlocked that scene, the scene does not complete at all
Will you have an android version soon? If not, I'll have to cancel my subscription since I only use android. Its still a great game.
