Version 0.2.2 Update

The First Letter of 2026

As the New Year’s Day fades into memory, the new year is not on the horizon. It has already kicked off in full swing!

For Sensory Patch Studio, 2025 was undoubtedly the most pivotal year in our history. We started from scratch: from project initiation to official launch, we worked to our full capacity nearly every single day, all in pursuit of creating a product that truly embodies our dedication and heart. With the release of our DEMO and Early Access versions, we were thrilled to receive far more positive feedback and enthusiastic suggestions from the community than we could have hoped for! True to its name, With Me has woven an unbreakable bond between all of us.

Our backend data tells a heartwarming story: to date, the total cumulative "Aquatic Time" logged by our community members has reached an astonishing 166,948 hours. That’s equivalent to 19 whole years!

Thank you for these 19 years of companionship! Haha. This number has brought immense joy to everyone in our team, as it perfectly aligns with our original vision for the game: we hope With Me: Aquatic Time can offer players a deep sense of long-term companionship.

In an era where everything moves at breakneck speed, this may seem like we’re swimming against the tide. But what if we could allow life to slow down? The gentle sunlight streaming through the office windows in the afternoon, the lingering aroma of coffee on our tongues... These fleeting moments stirred in us a quiet longing and a gentle rebellion. A desire to live life more slowly, more leisurely, more comfortably; to embrace a state of mind that allows us to face life’s pressures and challenges with grace and ease.

This is the very essence of our creation, and we hope to share this feeling with even more players in the years ahead!

2026 will bring new challenges and milestones for all of us, both in our personal lives and as a studio. Rest assured that we will continue to pour our hearts and souls into the development of With Me: Aquatic Time. We hope this game will accompany more people, bringing them joy and strength, as we witness beautiful moments unfold together.

With sincere gratitude,

The Entire Team at Sensory Patch Studio

Here are the detailed update notes:

• The flower-gifting cooldown now resets daily at 00:00 UTC.
