Studio devlog # March 2025

Hello guys,

as time goes on we decided to share some info and our future plans.

I've received few dozen of comments regarding the bugs and improvements from one of the player, who was kind to study the game and share his point of view. All is fiex, we currently test it.

I still think on releasing the Artbook for this game. We have a number of sketches, though not so many. The game has been released 5 years ago and I don't hope it will attract the new players, but somebody might like it:






We are releasing the Artbook DLC on April 9th.It contains over 100 sketches for you. It'll be released with discount and cost a bit more than one dollar, depending on your country.




We've implemented the artbook as well, but it's included in the base game.


It's our main project for the moment.
It's far more complicated than any of our previous work.

We have put a lot of effort into visualizing and describing the world (though it's still a lot of work):



You will learn more about Conussia and get acquainted with the new realm - Bhardadi:



So far we have a good progress.


We still plan to release The Book of Outcasts in May 2025, but we may delay it depending on the results of playtests. As I wrote above, the game is really complex, we have not dealt with such projects before.

If we find a lot of bugs, we'd rather have time to improve the game than release it unfinished.

We're trying to raise awareness. We're going to take every opportunity as an indie studio to promote ourselves - we really need it!

One of the results of this is cross-promotions. We are going to do a few cross-promotions with other developers over the next few months, maybe 2-3 a month. This means you will see other games in our news feed. It can be a little annoying, but it will help us get the game out faster!

We firmly believe that we need to focus all our efforts on developing a truly interesting game and that is enough for success, but at the same time we see that many developers grow precisely through mutual promotion and we cannot ignore this.

Another result was the implementation of the "Promo" section in The Book of Bondmaids and Womanzier. It is a separate option for browsing our other projects.

I am still not sure if it makes sense to add other developers' projects there. If you have a firm "Yes" or "No" to this, please write in the comments. It is another opportunity for promotion, but I have no idea if you will like it.

Regards,
