Devlog 5 + Release Date Announcement

Dear friends, it's time for a new Devlog, but before we start it we'd like to make a few announcements.

The first news is the exact release date - the full Esports History version will be released on Steam on October 3, 2024.

The second news is the announcement of Esports History: Prologue, a few weeks before the release we are going to release a free version of the beginning of the game which will contain all new mechanics from the full game. We hope you try the new version of the first acts and like it.

Our team has been working at a record pace for the last few months, even though it's not easy we realize that the release is inevitably coming, and that inspires us.

In the last 40 days we've done:

New dynamic background for locations

• Now under the locations will be a dynamic background that changes depending on the time of day.

UI Update

• Dialog window redesign

• Adding emotions for character sprites

• Updating interfaces

• Adding animations for interfaces

• Fonts update

Menu for new mini-games

New Stress System

• Several negative stress-related statuses have been added to the mini-games.

• Players can receive both minor debuffs and severe ones, the higher the stress the greater the risk of receiving a serious debuff.

Portable game consoles

Added automatic and semi-automatic modes for new mini-games

• The new minigames have the option to play in new auto modes similar to what you saw in the demo, but additionally, the player has the option to play in hardcore manual mode.

New game save system

• The game will now save the game on its own.

New experience system designed for 30 levels

Animated intro between Act 2 and Act 3

We are also working on game balance, localization, and bug fixes. The release date is chosen so that we have enough time to fix as many bugs as possible and release a quality version of Esports History.

Thank you very much for waiting for our game!
