Hello, dear friends!

  • Gameplay
addedWhere are we?Working on part 3. 70% of the images are ready. Text in progress (revisions, minor tweaks, translation). We plan to release it in February-March. It will be as big as the first two parts combined. But before the release of the update we want to release a patch that will fix some errors in the text and logic, add missing images in the gallery, fix the bug with the input of the cheat to open the gallery, add animation of the scene with Aquanite on the beach in the second chapter, add characters on the backgrounds where they are needed and some other minor fixes.
addedWhere are we?All in all - everything is good and the mood in the team is fighting. We've been spending a lot of time on the game lately and that's a good thing. And since we managed to find another artist, the work is done faster and we can afford to create new content and fix something in the old content at the same time.
addedWhat about the artwork? What about content?Several items (+-16) will be added, some of which will be mandatory, quest items, but the rest you can buy to give to your beloved who stayed on Drunken Dragonfly.

It's been a long time since we wrote developer diaries, and why? Because we don't sit idle and have no time at all! But the scriptwriter has finished writing the last part of the underwater adventure and now he can do the news again.

General timeline

Of course, things can change due to the fickleness of life, but this is how we see the plan so far:

...

February-March 2025 - Part 3 of the Underwater Adventure

June-July 2025 - Part 4 of the Underwater Adventure.

Chapter 4 is complete.

October-November 2025 - Part 1 of the last chapter.

...

Final game 2026

Yes, streamlined and not very clear, but as it is. We have too many ideas for chapter 5 and if we implement everything, we'll be doing the finale for another five years. We'll have to choose, but we can guarantee a few things:

  1. Each main character will have their own loyalty quest (like Benno, Olivia, Lauren).

  2. The game will not chase you to the completion of everything and until the final decision will give you the opportunity to freely choose tasks and pirate in no hurry.

  3. There will be a separate ending for each main character; a harem ending; multiple global endings.

What about the artwork? What about content?

Part 3 happens to be the most concentrated on Podwodje content. There will be 4-5 mini games, 4-5 18+ scenes, and stuff like that.

We can't show much, because some of the artwork contains serious spoilers (and we want you to feel emotions while playing), and some of it is too racy :)

Several items (+-16) will be added, some of which will be mandatory, quest items, but the rest you can buy to give to your beloved who stayed on Drunken Dragonfly.

Here's some of what we're talking about:

Thank you for your support and interest! We become better only because of you! Good luck to everyone!
