Repeated intro

Hey guys, quick update. A Foreign World is going into its last stretch. The game is about to be finished. There will be two more updates, followed by the grand finale. I might release the epilogue separately and have the grand finale span two updates, or I might just combine everything into one big update. I’m still considering my options, but I’ll let you know once I’ve decided.

Episode 9 is already fairly far into development. Still, expect some waiting time while I build up a bit of a buffer before the grand finale. That way, you won’t have to wait an eternity for the last update.
